  • AMERICAN MANHOOD in the CIVIL WAR ERA a Dissertation Submitted
    UNMADE: AMERICAN MANHOOD IN THE CIVIL WAR ERA A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Notre Dame in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Michael E. DeGruccio _________________________________ Gail Bederman, Director Graduate Program in History Notre Dame, Indiana July 2007 UNMADE: AMERICAN MANHOOD IN THE CIVIL WAR ERA Abstract by Michael E. DeGruccio This dissertation is ultimately a story about men trying to tell stories about themselves. The central character driving the narrative is a relatively obscure officer, George W. Cole, who gained modest fame in central New York for leading a regiment of black soldiers under the controversial General Benjamin Butler, and, later, for killing his attorney after returning home from the war. By weaving Cole into overlapping micro-narratives about violence between white officers and black troops, hidden war injuries, the personal struggles of fellow officers, the unbounded ambition of his highest commander, Benjamin Butler, and the melancholy life of his wife Mary Barto Cole, this dissertation fleshes out the essence of the emergent myth of self-made manhood and its relationship to the war era. It also provides connective tissue between the top-down war histories of generals and epic battles and the many social histories about the “common soldier” that have been written consciously to push the historiography away from military brass and Lincoln’s administration. Throughout this dissertation, mediating figures like Cole and those who surrounded him—all of lesser ranks like major, colonel, sergeant, or captain—hem together what has previously seemed like the disconnected experiences of the Union military leaders, and lowly privates in the field, especially African American troops.

  • Suzanne Iarla Community Outreach Specialist City of El Cerrito 10890 San Pablo Avenue El Cerrito, CA 94530
    Suzanne Iarla Community Outreach Specialist City of El Cerrito 10890 San Pablo Avenue El Cerrito, CA 94530 4 September 2013 Dear Suzanne, The Artist Salon of the East Bay (ASEB) is a group of mostly El Cerrito and Richmond-based artists, many of whose names will be familiar to you. Our members are deeply involved in to the local arts community and several have served as Arts and Culture Commissioners over the years. ASEB members are Rita Bagley, Dyana Bhandari, Pam Fingado, Edward Alex Franco, Sandi Potter, Jeanne Rehrig and Nicole Rubio (see contact information, below). We are pleased to submit our idea for an exhibit at the El Cerrito City Hall Gallery – El Cerrito, Re-imagined. Inspired by our own history in the East Bay and by images contained in the El Cerrito Historical Society’s book “El Cerrito – Images of America,” together we explored themes of the past – nostalgia, memory, and loss – to capture the enduring essence and evolution of our town. We draw on historic photographs, personal experiences, and stories to reinterpret the life and times of El Cerrito. Working in a variety of media - including, acrylic and oil painting, mono-printing, pastel and pencil drawing and mixed media – each artist delves into images of the past to gain a new perspective on the present. Examples of each artist’s work for this project are attached (see jpg files identified by artist’s name). Many of the ASEB artists have show their work in group and individual shows in El Cerrito and each artist brings a unique perspective to this project (see artists’ resumes, attached).
