In Memory WHITFIELD JENKS BELL JR., executive officer of the American Philosophical Society from 1977 to 1983, died at Carlisle, Pennsylvania, on January 2, 2009. For more than half a century, as a scholar and admin- istrator, he exerted a significant influence on historical scholarship in the United States. Born on December 3, 1914, in Newburgh, New York, he spent his boyhood in New Jersey and the Philadelphia suburbs, graduating from Lower Merion High School in 1931. Bell was from the start a voracious reader and history enthusiast. Inspired by the boys’ novels of Everett Tomlinson, at age thirteen he wrote a history of the American Revolution—and soon thereafter destroyed the manuscript. It was, he later observed with his characteristic self-deprecating wit, “the only exam- ple of critical good sense I ever showed.” Bell completed his undergraduate degree at Dickinson College, where he excelled in his studies, was active socially, and became a prolific writer for college publications. After a brief foray into the law, he turned to his- tory, earning a PhD under Richard Shryock at the University of Pennsylvania. His dissertation, “Science and Humanity in Franklin’s Philadelphia,” was never published but was widely respected and often cited. Only two years into his graduate studies Bell returned to Dickinson to teach part time. He remained there through 1953, save for service in Europe with the American Field Service during World War II. Rejected for bad eyesight, Bell was determined to play his part in the war. His experiences as a carrier of wounded soldiers in Italy and at the Bergen- Belsen concentration camp would remain a vivid memory. From the outset of his academic career, Bell wrote widely on historical topics, mostly, though not exclusively, on early American science, medi- cine, natural history, and the multifaceted Benjamin Franklin. He was a mainstay at scholarly conferences in his field, delivering numerous papers, after-dinner speeches, and formal addresses to a wide range of audiences. His productivity earned him rapid promotion at Dickinson and the Boyd Lee Spahr Chair, which he resigned as he grew increasingly frustrated with the authoritarian governance of Dickinson president William W. Edel. During the 1953–54 academic year, Bell served as visiting editor of the William and Mary Quarterly. While in Williamsburg, he accepted an invitation to join the nascent Franklin Papers project. In New Haven, Bell worked closely with editor Leonard Labaree and a small but gifted staff. Based first in Philadelphia, then at Yale, Bell combed archives and exploited personal contacts to retrieve important Franklin documents. As a mainstay of the so-called “Franklin Factory,” he established a high stan- dard in transcribing and interpreting those documents. In 1960, the American Philosophical Society beckoned Bell back to Philadelphia as its assistant librarian. There he stayed for the rest of his professional career. Bell gradually moved up the ranks to become librarian and executive officer. At the APS Bell secured important collections, among them papers of the great scientist Charles Darwin, expanded the physical facilities, and oversaw first-class public programs and publica- tions. Among his most cherished collaborations with colleagues at other Philadelphia institutions was the curatorship of a bicentennial exhibit in 1976, complemented by a handsome catalog, A Rising People. Throughout his years as an administrator at APS, Bell continued to write and edit at an astonishing pace. His overall corpus features more than 250 scholarly articles, essays, introductions, encyclopedia entries, prefaces, afterwards, and several books, including a well-regarded biogra-

  • 1 After Slavery & Reconstruction: the Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliogr
    After Slavery & Reconstruction: The Black Struggle in the U.S. for Freedom, Equality, and Self-Realization* —A Bibliography Patrick S. O’Donnell (2020) Jacob Lawrence, Library, 1966 Apologia— Several exceptions notwithstanding (e.g., some titles treating the Reconstruction Era), this bibliography begins, roughly, with the twentieth century. I have not attempted to comprehensively cover works of nonfiction or the arts generally but, once more, I have made— and this time, a fair number of—exceptions by way of providing a taste of the requisite material. So, apart from the constraints of most of my other bibliographies: books, in English, these particular constraints are intended to keep the bibliography to a fairly modest length (around one hundred pages). This compilation is far from exhaustive, although it endeavors to be representative of the available literature, whatever the influence of my idiosyncratic beliefs and 1 preferences. I trust the diligent researcher will find titles on particular topics or subject areas by browsing carefully through the list. I welcome notice of titles by way of remedying any deficiencies. Finally, I have a separate bibliography on slavery, although its scope is well beyond U.S. history. * Or, if you prefer, “self-fulfillment and human flourishing (eudaimonia).” I’m not here interested in the question of philosophical and psychological differences between these concepts (i.e., self- realization and eudaimonia) and the existing and possible conceptions thereof, but more simply and broadly in their indispensable significance in reference to human nature and the pivotal metaphysical and moral purposes they serve in our critical and evaluative exercises (e.g., and after Amartya Sen and Martha Nussbaum, in employing criteria derived from the notion of ‘human capabilities and functionings’) as part of our individual and collective historical quest for “the Good.” However, I might note that all of these concepts assume a capacity for self- determination.

  • Benjamin Franklin (10 Vols., New York, 1905- 7), 5:167
    The American Aesthetic of Franklin's Visual Creations ENJAMIN FRANKLIN'S VISUAL CREATIONS—his cartoons, designs for flags and paper money, emblems and devices— Breveal an underlying American aesthetic, i.e., an egalitarian and nationalistic impulse. Although these implications may be dis- cerned in a number of his visual creations, I will restrict this essay to four: first, the cartoon of Hercules and the Wagoneer that appeared in Franklin's pamphlet Plain Truth in 1747; second, the flags of the Associator companies of December 1747; third, the cut-snake cartoon of May 1754; and fourth, his designs for the first United States Continental currency in 1775 and 1776. These four devices or groups of devices afford a reasonable basis for generalizations concerning Franklin's visual creations. And since the conclusions shed light upon Franklin's notorious comments comparing the eagle as the emblem of the United States to the turkey ("a much more respectable bird and withal a true original Native of America"),1 I will discuss that opinion in an appendix. My premise (which will only be partially proven during the fol- lowing discussion) is that Franklin was an extraordinarily knowl- edgeable student of visual symbols, devices, and heraldry. Almost all eighteenth-century British and American printers used ornaments and illustrations. Many printers, including Franklin, made their own woodcuts and carefully designed the visual appearance of their broad- sides, newspapers, pamphlets, and books. Franklin's uses of the visual arts are distinguished from those of other colonial printers by his artistic creativity and by his interest in and scholarly knowledge of the general subject.

  • Benjamin Franklin People Mentioned in Walden
    PEOPLE MENTIONED IN WALDEN BENJAMIN “VERSE-MAKERS WERE GENERALLY BEGGARS” FRANKLIN1 Son of so-and-so and so-and-so, this so-and-so helped us to gain our independence, instructed us in economy, and drew down lightning from the clouds. “NARRATIVE HISTORY” AMOUNTS TO FABULATION, THE REAL STUFF BEING MERE CHRONOLOGY 1. Franklin was distantly related to Friend Lucretia Mott, as was John Greenleaf Whittier, Henry Adams, and Octavius Brooks Frothingham. HDT WHAT? INDEX THE PEOPLE OF WALDEN: BENJAMIN FRANKLIN PEOPLE MENTIONED IN WALDEN WALDEN: In most books, the I, or first person, is omitted; in this PEOPLE OF it will be retained; that, in respect to egotism, is the main WALDEN difference. We commonly do not remember that it is, after all, always the first person that is speaking. I should not talk so much about myself if there were any body else whom I knew as well. Unfortunately, I am confined to this theme by the narrowness of my experience. BENJAMIN FRANKLIN WALDEN: But all this is very selfish, I have heard some of my PEOPLE OF townsmen say. I confess that I have hitherto indulged very little WALDEN in philanthropic enterprises. I have made some sacrifices to a sense of duty, and among others have sacrificed this pleasure also. There are those who have used all their arts to persuade me to undertake the support of some poor family in town; and if I had nothing to do, –for the devil finds employment for the idle,– I might try my hand at some such pastime as that.

The relationship between Yankees and Irish in Boston in the last couple of decades of the nineteenth-century was marked by religious conflict, which explains much about both the defensive nature of Catholicism in Boston and the offensive nature of Irish-American

  • A Timeline of Bucks County History 1600S-1900S-Rev2
    A TIMELINE OF BUCKS COUNTY HISTORY— 1600s-1900s 1600’s Before c. A.D. 1609 - The native peoples of the Delaware Valley, those who greet the first European explorers, traders and settlers, are the Lenni Lenape Indians. Lenni Lenape is a bit of a redundancy that can be translated as the “original people” or “common people.” Right: A prehistoric pot (reconstructed from fragments), dating 500 B.C.E. to A.D. 1100, found in a rockshelter in northern Bucks County. This clay vessel, likely intended for storage, was made by ancestors of the Lenape in the Delaware Valley. Mercer Museum Collection. 1609 - First Europeans encountered by the Lenape are the Dutch: Henry Hudson, an Englishman sailing under the Dutch flag, sailed up Delaware Bay. 1633 - English Captain Thomas Yong tries to probe the wilderness that will become known as Bucks County but only gets as far as the Falls of the Delaware River at today’s Morrisville. 1640 - Portions of lower Bucks County fall within the bounds of land purchased from the Lenape by the Swedes, and a handful of Swedish settlers begin building log houses and other structures in the region. 1664 - An island in the Delaware River, called Sankhickans, is the first documented grant of land to a European - Samuel Edsall - within the boundaries of Bucks County. 1668 - The first grant of land in Bucks County is made resulting in an actual settlement - to Peter Alrichs for two islands in the Delaware River. 1679 - Crewcorne, the first Bucks County village, is founded on the present day site of Morrisville.
