  • GUIDE to the HITCHCOCK FAMILY PAPERS Scope and Content Note the Hitchcock Family Papers Have Been Received As Gifts by the Pocum
    GUIDE TO THE HITCHCOCK FAMILY PAPERS Scope and Content Note The Hitchcock Family Papers have been received as gifts by the Pocumtuck Valley Memorial Association from several sources over many years. The collection numbers just over 400 items, and date between 1731 and 1979. The papers are those of and relating to the descendants of Luke [d. 1659] and Elizabeth (Gibbons) Hitchcock [d. 1696] of Wethersfield, Connecticut, through their sons John and Luke. The number that accompanies names in the notes below refers to the number assigned to the individual by George Sheldon in genealogical notes on the Hitchcock family in the second volume of his History of Deerfield [1895]. Many of the following biographical notes were selected from that source and from The Genealogy of the Hitchcock Family, compiled and published by Mrs. Edward Hitchcock, Jr. [Amherst, Mass., 1894]. Biographical Notes and Description of Series John Hitchcock4, son of Deacon John2 and Hannah (Chapin) Hitchcock, was born in Springfield, Mass., on April 13, 1670. On September 24, 1691 he married Mary Ball of Springfield and the couple had 11 children, one of whom is mentioned below. He received two shares of the township granted to survivors of the Falls Fight [Turners Falls, Mass.,1676] and their descendants and bequeathed them to his son John. He died in 1751, his widow in 1760. He is represented by four items: deeds to land in Brookfield and Springfield, Mass., dated 1731, a copy of his will, dated December 12, 1750, an account relating to the sale of his estate. Samuel Hitchcock7, son of Ensign John4 and Mary (Ball) Hitchcock, was born in Springfield, Mass., on June 9, 1717.

    MEMOIR EDWARD HITCHCOCK. 1793-1864. BY J. P. LESLEY. HEAD BEFORE THE NATIONAL ACADEMT, AUG. 9, 18C6. 113 BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF EDWARD HITCHCOCK. WE cherish the memory of the good and wise, not because they are rare, for the world is full of them; they exist in every society and grade of society, in every business and profession, even in the limited circle of acquaintanceship of every respectable person. But we cherish the memory of the wise and good, because it is dear to us, because we have been taught, encouraged, aided, cheered, blessed, and ennobled by them; and their memory is a continuation of their living words and deeds, and we can make it an heirloom for our children. A man to be remembered is a man to be spoken of. Even in the most barbarous aboriginal stages of the history of mankind, men here and there appeared, whose biographies, could they be written, the world could make good use of. In our own days of high civilization, almost every active life deserves a record. But the law of natural selection rules in literature also, and the struggle for posthumous fame, like the struggle for animal life, is crowned only in the persons of the best competitors. One of these favored few we celebrate this evening. A man of religion, a man of science ; in both, a docile student and an expert teacher ; in both, enthusiastic and self-saer.ficing; in both, gentle, persuasive, affectionate, sympathetic ; in both, shackled by traditions which he both feared and hated to break, yet vigorously holding up his shackles and keeping abreast and in some respects ahead of the advancing age.

    MIAMI UNIVERSITY The Graduate School CERTIFICATE FOR APPROVING THE DISSERTATION We hereby approve the Dissertation Of Jay T. Dolmage Candidate for the Degree: Doctor of Philosophy Director Dr. Cindy Lewiecki-Wilson Reader Dr. Kate Ronald Reader Dr. Morris Young Reader Dr. James Cherney Graduate School Representative ABSTRACT METIS: DISABILITY, RHETORIC AND AVAILABLE MEANS by Jay Dolmage In this dissertation I argue for a critical re-investigation of several connected rhetorical traditions, and then for the re-articulation of theories of composition pedagogy in order to more fully recognize the importance of embodied differences. Metis is the rhetorical art of cunning, the use of embodied strategies—what Certeau calls everyday arts—to transform rhetorical situations. In a world of chance and change, metis is what allows us to craft available means for persuasion. Building on the work of Detienne and Vernant, and Certeau, I argue that metis is a way to recognize that all rhetoric is embodied. I show that embodiment is a feeling for difference, and always references norms of gender, race, sexuality, class, citizenship. Developing the concept of metis I show how embodiment forms and transforms in reference to norms of ability, the constraints and enablements of our bodied knowing. I exercise my own metis as I re-tell the mythical stories of Hephaestus and Metis, and re- examine the dialogues of Plato, Aristotle, Cicero and Quintillian. I weave through the images of embodiment trafficked in phenomenological philosophy, and I apply my own models to the teaching of writing as an embodied practice, forging new tools for learning. I strategically interrogate the ways that academic spaces circumscribe roles for bodies/minds, and critique the discipline of composition’s investment in the erection of boundaries.

    1852-1930 Emily Jordan 1858-1936 A LIST OF THE RECORDS BELONGING TO MR AND MRS FOLGER IN THE FOLGER SHAKESPEARE LIBRARY Compiled ca. 1965 ii INTRODUCTION The records of Mr and Mrs Folger which are in the Folger Shakespeare Library are only part of those which they must once have had. Certain kinds of papers, like the collection of booksellers' bills and receipts, have probably survived in their entirety. Others, like certain personal bills and letters, only sporadically. Mrs Folger sent ten cases of her . husband's books and papers to the Standard Oil, Company of New York in (See also her June 1932. Many of the documents now in the library were deposited Meridian Club before Mrs Folger's death; a battered label bears the note “Mr Henry C. Paper, 1933, p. 9, in Folger. Cancelled checks; receipted bills, miscellaneous unsorted papers Box 33) and scraps. These were removed from the closet in the cataloging room on September 26, 1935". More were added after Mrs Folger's death. Some, of the photographs were received from the estate of Mrs Folger, April 7, 1936. A.S.W Rosenbach, presented 3 scrapbooks made by Mr and Mrs Folger during their college days, Sep. 22, 1939. E.J. Dimock, a nephew, presented 2 notebooks and one scrapbook, Oct. 12, 1939. Miss Myers gave E.J. Rogers' correspondence with Mrs Folger, Sep. 22, 1960. The collection of records which thus found its way into the library had very little order and lay as a miscellaneous collection of crates, boxes, cartons and volumes.
