  • Robert M. La Follette School of Public Policy Commencement Address
    Robert M. La Follette School of Public Policy Commencement Address May 19, 2013 Bob Lang Thank you for inviting me to be a part of the celebration of your commencement -- graduation from the University of Wisconsin's Robert M. La Follette School of Public Policy. I have had the privilege of serving in Wisconsin's Legislative Fiscal Bureau with many La Follette graduates, including the 10 who are currently colleagues of mine at the Bureau. I am honored to be with you today. ____________________________ I have two favorite commencement speeches. The first, written 410 years ago, was not delivered to a graduating class, but rather, to an individual. It was, however, a commencement address in the true meaning of the word -- that is to recognize a beginning -- a transition from the present to the future. And, in the traditional sense of commencement speeches, was filled with advice. The speech was given by a father to his son, in Shakespeare's Hamlet. Polonius, chief councilor to Denmark's King Claudius, gives his son Laertes sage advice as the young man patiently waits for his talkative father to complete his lengthy speech and bid him farewell before the son sets sail for France to Page 1 continue his studies. "Those friends thou hast, grapple them to thy soul with hoops of steel." "Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice." "Neither a borrower nor a lender be." "This above all, to thine own self be true, and it must follow, as the night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man." The second of my favorite commencement addresses was delivered to a graduating college class by Thornton Mellen.

    The Outward Turn: Personality, Blankness, and Allure in American Modernism Anne Claire Diebel Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 Anne Claire Diebel All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Outward Turn: Personality, Blankness, and Allure in American Modernism Anne Claire Diebel The history of personality in American literature has surprisingly little to do with the differentiating individuality we now tend to associate with the term. Scholars of nineteenth- and twentieth-century American culture have defined personality either as the morally vacuous successor to the Protestant ideal of character or as the equivalent of mass-media celebrity. In both accounts, personality is deliberately constructed and displayed. However, hiding in American writings of the long modernist period (1880s–1940s) is a conception of personality as the innate capacity, possessed by few, to attract attention and elicit projection. Skeptical of the great American myth of self-making, such writers as Henry James, Theodore Dreiser, Gertrude Stein, Nathanael West, and Langston Hughes invented ways of representing individuals not by stable inner qualities but by their fascinating—and, often, gendered and racialized—blankness. For these writers, this sense of personality was not only an important theme and formal principle of their fiction and non-fiction writing; it was also a professional concern made especially salient by the rise of authorial celebrity. This dissertation both offers an alternative history of personality in American literature and culture and challenges the common critical assumption that modernist writers took the interior life to be their primary site of exploration and representation.

Rosenstone Mabel Dodge's salon ••• burst upon New York like a rocket. Margaret Sanger It was the only successful salon I have ever seen in America. Lincoln Steffens Many famous salons have been established by women of wit or beauty; Mabel's was the only one ever established by pure will power. And it was no second-rate salon; everybody in the ferment of ideas could be found there. Max Eastman 2 It is indeed the happy woman who has no history, for by happy we mean the loving and beloved, and by history we designate all those relatable occurences on earth caused by the human energies seeking other outlets than the biological one. • . That I have so many pages to write signifies, solely, that I was unlucky in love. Most of the pages are about what I did instead •. Mabel Dodge 1 Mabel Dodge was rich and attractive and more than a little lucky. For two years -- from 1912 to 1914 -- she played hostess to the most famous and no doubt the most interesting salon in American history. This success was no accident, but the result of a subtle interplay between her individual needs and ambitions and the historical moment. It was a very special period in the cultural life of the United States, one when expatriate Irish painter John Butler Yeats cocked an ear and heard "the fiddles • tuning as it were allover America.

  • Georg Brandes. Jo Davidsons Buste Er Opstillet I Informationssalen På Det Kongelige Bibliotek
    m Georg Brandes. Jo Davidsons buste er opstillet i Informationssalen på Det kongelige Bibliotek. 20 Brandes "headhunted" Jo Davidsons buste af Georg Brandes af forskningsbibliotekar, cand.mag. Merete Licht Da Brandes den 25. november 1913 holdt sin Shakespeare forelæsning i Cax- ton Hall i London, blev den overværet af to unge amerikanske kunstnere, den ene var fotografen Alvin Langdon Coburn og den anden billedhuggeren Jo Davidson. Begge besluttede på stedet, at de ville portrættere ham. Det ved vi, fordi en tredje ung amerikaner var til stede samme aften, nemlig litteratur­ kritikeren Van Wyck Brooks. Han var en stor beundrer af Brandes ("I have read Brandes with rapture at Stanford"), og det var ham, der havde taget de to venner med til forelæsningen. I sine erindringer giver han et billede af af­ tenens forløb og fortæller om Jo Davidson, at han efter forelæsningen "was determined to make a bust of Brandes". Lige så forskellige de to kunstneres medier var, Cobums var fotografiet og Davidsons leret, lige så forskellige var deres temperamenter, så aftenens resultat blev Brandes afspejlet i to kunstneriske temperamenter: Cobums por­ træt af ham findes gengivet og omtalt i Magasin, årg. 5, nr. 1, 1990, Jo Da­ vidsons buste står i dag i Informationssalen på Det kongelige Bibliotek, og det er om dens tilblivelse og skaber, denne artikel handler. Var resultaterne end forskellige, var udgangspunktet det samme. Begge kunstnere fæstnede sig ved een bestemt egenskab hos Brandes, nemlig hans "alertness", et lidt uoversætteligt ord, der indeholder elementer af livfuldhed og nysgerrighed tilsat et anstrøg af åndeligt alarmberedskab. Coburn koncen­ trerede sig især om "mental alertness", den Brandes der lyser ud af hans por­ træt er en næsten æterisk person, og man er ikke et øjeblik i tvivl om, at det er en person af ånd, man har for sig.

  • Good Neighbor Cultural Diplomacy in World War II
    Good Neighbor Cultural Diplomacy in World War II: The Art of Making Friends Darlene J. Sadlier, Indiana University, USA In August 1940, President Franklin D. Roosevelt named Nelson A. Rockefeller to head the Office of the Coordinator of Inter-American Affairs (CIAA), a new federal agency whose main objective was to strengthen cultural and commercial relations between the U.S and Latin America, in particular Brazil, in order to route Axis influence and secure hemispheric solidarity. On November 7, 1940, just months after the CIAA‘s inception, Robert G. Caldwell and Wallace K. Harrison, Chairman and Director, respectively, of the agency‘s Cultural Relations Division, received written approval for twenty-six special projects at a cost of nearly one-half million dollars.i The most expensive, at $150,000, was an Inter-American exhibit of art and culture under the direction of the MoMA, to be held simultaneously with parallel exhibits in capital cities throughout the Americas.ii Two hundred fifty-five U.S. paintings were curated by the MoMA in conjunction with other major museums, and in April 1941, these were previewed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Portions of the large exhibit then toured eight South American republics, Mexico and Cuba for close to a year, beginning with an exposition at Mexico City‘s Palacio de Bellas Artes in June.iii The emphasis was on modern art and included paintings by Georgia O‘Keefe, Thomas Hart Benton, Edward Hopper, Stuart Davis, Loren MacIver, Eugene Speicher, Peter Hurd and Robert Henri, among others. A file in the MoMA archive has valuations of all the paintings at the time, the highest valued being George Bellows‘s Dempsey and Firpo and Georgia O‘Keefe‘s The White Flower at $25,000 each.

  • Walden Planning Unit Resource Management Plan
    Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation Bureau of Planning and Resource Protection Resource Management Planning Program RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN Walden Planning Unit Including Walden Pond State Reservation May 2013 In coordination with: Crosby | Schlessinger | Smallridge, LLC Walden Planning Unit Including Walden Pond State Reservation RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PLAN 2013 Deval L. Patrick, Governor Timothy P. Murray, Lt. Governor Richard K. Sullivan, Jr., Secretary Edward M. Lambert, Jr., Commissioner John P. Murray, Deputy Commissioner for Park Operations Resource Management Plans (RMPs) provide guidelines for management of properties under the stewardship of the Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR). They are intended to be working documents for setting priorities, enabling the Department to adapt to changing fiscal, social, and environmental conditions. The planning process provides a forum for communication and cooperation with park visitors and the surrounding communities to ensure transparency in the DCR’s stewardship efforts. One of the most recognizable properties in the DCR park system, Walden Pond State Reservation is an iconic national and international destination. The pond that inspired Henry David Thoreau’s seminal work Walden, or Life in the Woods holds divergent meanings. To many, the reservation is a sacred landscape and international cultural heritage site. To some, it is a profound symbol of both Thoreau’s writings and the genesis of the land conservation movement. Simultaneously, the reservation is valued for its recreation opportunities, whether swimming in Walden Pond’s waters on hot summer days, canoeing on the pond’s calm waters, or cross-country skiing in its surrounding forests. This plan outlines recommendations that will improve the visitor experience for all, while preserving Walden Pond and its surrounding natural and cultural resources for the benefit of future generations.

  • Tihen Notes from 1927 Wichita Beacon, P
    WICHITA STATE UNIVERSITY LIBRARIES’ DEPARTMENT OF SPECIAL COLLECTIONS Tihen Notes from 1927 Wichita Beacon, p. 1 Dr. Edward N. Tihen (1924-1991) was an avid reader and researcher of Wichita newspapers. His notes from Wichita newspapers -- the “Tihen Notes,” as we call them -- provide an excellent starting point for further research. They present brief synopses of newspaper articles, identify the newspaper -- Eagle, Beacon or Eagle-Beacon -- in which the stories first appeared, and give exact references to the pages on which the articles are found. Microfilmed copies of these newspapers are available at the Wichita State University Libraries, the Wichita Public Library, or by interlibrary loan from the Kansas State Historical Society. TIHEN NOTES FROM 1927 WICHITA BEACON Wichita Beacon Sunday, January 2, 1927 page Magazine 6. Article about the streets between Washington and Hydraulic with girls’ names.

  • The American Pioneer Woman Circa 1930: Cultural Debates and the Role of Public Art
    The American Pioneer Woman Circa 1930 85 The American Pioneer Woman Circa 1930: Cultural Debates and the Role of Public Art Janet Galligani Casey Last February a dozen women set out to tour the U.S. They were a curious company. Dressed in the style of the early 19th century, they remained totally impervious to the appraising stares of approximately 750,000 persons. —Time Magazine, January 2, 19281 In 1927, an unusual contest seized the attention of the American public. Oklahoma oil magnate E. W. Marland, inspired to commemorate the role of women on the American frontier, set aside more than $300,000 for the eventual erection of a monument in his hometown of Ponca City and invited prominent sculptors to submit appropriate designs. Over the next several months, twelve miniature bronze casts based on those designs were exhibited in major cities throughout the U.S., drawing tens of thousands of visitors who were invited to share their opinions via formal ballot. Although Marland retained the right to make the final decision, art critics, cultural commentators, and ordinary citizens nonetheless engaged in robust debate about the suitability of each of the models and, by extension, the symbolic parameters for an iconic female of the frontier. When the completed full-sized monument was unveiled in 1930 before a crowd estimated at 40,000—on a specially declared state holiday featuring Indian pow-wows, fiddling contests, and parades of Conestoga wagons—the cultural 0026-3079/2010/5103/4-085$2.50/0 American Studies, 51:3/4 (Fall/Winter 2010): 85-107 85 86 Janet Galligani Casey significance of the moment was reinforced through public addresses by none other than President Herbert Hoover and Secretary of War (and Oklahoma native) Patrick J.
