  • The Chisholm Trail
    From the poem “Cattle” by Berta Hart Nance In the decades following the Civil War, more than 6 million cattle—up to 10 million by some accounts—were herded out of Texas in one of the greatest migrations of animals ever known. These 19th-century cattle drives laid the foundation for Texas’ wildly successful cattle industry and helped elevate the state out of post-Civil War despair and poverty. Today, our search for an American identity often leads us back to the vision of the rugged and independent men and women of the cattle drive era. Although a number of cattle drive routes existed during this period, none captured the popular imagination like the one we know today as the Chisholm Trail. Through songs, stories, and mythical tales, the Chisholm Trail has become a vital feature of American identity. Historians have long debated aspects of the Chisholm Trail’s history, including the exact route and even its name. Although they may argue over specifics, most would agree that the decades of the cattle drives were among the most colorful periods of Texas history. The purpose of this guide is not to resolve debates, but rather to help heritage tourists explore the history and lore associated with the legendary cattle-driving route. We hope you find the historical disputes part of the intrigue, and are inspired to investigate the historic sites, museums, and attractions highlighted here to reach your own conclusions. 1835-36 The Texas Revolution 1845 The United States annexes Texas as the 28th state 1861-65 The American Civil War 1867 Joseph G.

  • The Effect of Art Music on Pompeo Coppini: Greatest Sculptor of Texas Monuments*
    Sociology Study, November 2016, Vol. 6, No. 11, 706‐712 D doi: 10.17265/2159‐5526/2016.11.004 DAVID PUBLISHING The Effect of Art Music on Pompeo Coppini: Greatest Sculptor of Texas Monuments* Valentino Belfiglioa Abstract Art music has the ability to communicate, entertain, and inspire other artists. Opera is a dramatic multimedia genre which fuses solo and choral singing with instrumental accompaniment, dance, staging, costumes, scenery, and libretto. This multimedia approach can inspire painters, sculptors, poets, writers, and other musicians in their works. Italian opera greatly inspired Pompeo Coppini—the Italian sculptor. In particular, scenes and arias by Verdi and Puccini correlate with specific tasks involved in the creation of a monument. In creating the Alamo cenotaph, Coppini often played Gioacchino Rossini’s opera, “William Tell” (1829) correlating the sacrifices made by Texans for their independence at the Alamo (1836) with the sacrifices made by Swiss patriots in their independence from Austrian tyranny. This case study suggests that art music can enhance creativity and visual attention among artists of all genres. Keywords Art music, opera, sculpture, inspiration The author stood in front of a bust portraiture of Gaius sculptor, Pompeo Coppini, the greatest sculptor of Julius Caesar (100-44 B.C.) during a visit to the Texas monuments.

  • Part Three: Present
    Part Three: Present Introduction to the Present Chapter 13: Existing Conditions Chapter 14: Analysis and Evaluation From an emphasis on buildings, they have come to understand the equal importance of the gardens, open spaces, and streets around them—that is, of the connective tissue that binds the built world into an organic, life-sustaining whole. James Marston Fitch, Historic Preservation, Management of the Built World, 1990 288 Brackenridge Park Cultural Landscape Report | San Antonio Introduction to the Present Two chapters in a Cultural Landscape Report (CLR) focus on the present state of the landscape. The chapter “Existing Conditions” (chapter 13 in this CLR) is provided to “clearly identify and describe the landscape characteristics that comprise a cultural landscape.”1 In short, this chapter summarizes the existing conditions of the landscape. In the chapter “Analysis and Evaluation” (chapter 14), the site’s contexts (part one of this CLR), the history of the site (part two of this CLR), and the existing cultural and ecological conditions throughout the park landscape (detailed in chapter 13) come together. Analysis and evaluation “is a critical step for sorting and integrating natural and cultural resource data so it can be used to develop appropriate treatment strategies.”2 Documenting the existing conditions of a landscape with a history and scale of such magnitude is a complex endeavor that requires a tailored and methodical approach. In order to capture the breadth of the park’s current state, chapter 13 is organized as follows. Summary of Site History An abbreviated history of the site, which has been extensively detailed in the preceding chapters, is provided before the assessment of existing conditions begins.
