CULTURAL PLAY AT THE CRAZY HORSE COLOSSUS: NARRATIVE RATIONALITY AND THE CRAZY HORSE MEMORIAL ORIENTATION FILM by THOMAS M. CORNWELL Under the Direction of Dr. Mary Stuckey ABSTRACT This thesis explores the Crazy Horse Memorial orientation film and its rhetorical claim to represent Lakota values in the rhetorically contested Black Hills of South Dakota. Walter Fisher‟s concept of narrative rationality is used to analyze the informal logic of the memorial film narrative. The Crazy Horse Memorial is seen as a response to Mt. Rushmore‟s colonialist legacy. Analysis shows that the Crazy Horse Memorial actually has much in common with Rushmore‟s legacy of Euro-American colonialism. This thesis discusses the effects of this redefinition of Lakota cultural values on the rhetorical sphere of the contested Black Hills.

  • A First Sergeant's Memories of Camp Michaux: the Lost Collection of the Pine Grove Furnace Prisoner of War Camp Vincent J
    A First Sergeant's Memories of Camp Michaux: The Lost Collection of The Pine Grove Furnace Prisoner of War Camp Vincent J. Montano I have never forgotten my first solitary walk through Camp Michaux. The sun was setting and visitors had gone. I explored in silence, hearing only a gentle breeze create an eerie creaking in the trees that made me strain my ear as if listening for voices of the past. Whether strolling the stone-lined paths of one of Franklin Roosevelt’s Civilian Conservation Corps camps, perusing the ruins of a long- beloved church retreat, or walking in the footsteps of World War II intelligence officers engaged here with thousands of prisoners of war in a battle for democracy’s future, Camp Michaux instilled in me a child-like sense of wonder and a motivation to discover its secrets. Recently that motivation lead me to an interview conducted three and one-half decades ago with a former guard who served at the Pine Grove Furnace Prisoner of War Interrogation Camp from December 1944 to November 1945. Diane Reed interviewed 1st Sergeant Robert S. Chastulik in 1983 as part of her Master of Arts studies on German POW’s in Carlisle, Pennsylvania. During the interview, Chastulik flipped through photographs of the camp in a personal album and talked about souvenirs made by POW's at Pine Grove that they traded with him for much-desired cigarettes.1 Nearly forty years after the war’s end, Robert still felt the need to protect the secrecy of the camp and his collection remained hidden since that time.2 Chastulik died in 1991.

  • Każdy Człowiek Ma Swoją Górę Do&Nbsp;Przekucia. Niezwykły Rzeźbiarz Korczak Ziółkowski
    Każdy człowiek ma swoją górę do przekucia. Niezwykły rzeźbiarz Korczak Ziółkowski. Rozmowa z Aleksandrą Ziółkowska-Boehm Aleksandra Ziółkowska-Boehm i Norman Boehm na tle pomnika Crazy Horse w Południowej Dakocie, 1995 r., fot. arch. Aleksandry Ziółkowskiej-Boehm. Joanna Sokołowska-Gwizdka: Kiedy byłam w szóstej klasie szkoły podstawowej, zaintrygowała mnie książka Olgierda Budrewicza „Nasi za oceanem”. Z historii tam opisanych zapamiętałam i przeczytałam kilkanaście razy rozdział o Korczaku Ziółkowskim. Nie mogłam uwierzyć, że jest na świecie Polak, który dokonuje tak wielkiego dzieła. Wyobrażałam sobie, że może staje po stronie prawa do wolności dla prawowitych mieszkańców Ameryki, bo pochodzi z narodu, który przez ponad 100 lat był pod zaborami. Korczak Ziółkowski to Pani rodzina. Aleksandra Ziółkowska-Boehm: Pamiętam, jak w dzieciństwie, w rodzinnych opowieściach wracała postać krewnego ojca, Korczaka Ziółkowskiego, rzeźbiarza z Południowej Dakoty, którego rodzice, Anna i Józef Ziółkowscy, wyemigrowali do Stanów. Dużo jednak w domu się o nim nie rozmawiało. Ameryka i Korczak byli daleko, a rzeczywistość w Polsce wymagała od rodziny pełnego zaangażowania, by sobie poradzić z dniem codziennym. Żadnych planów odwiedzin czy wyjazdu nikt nie snuł. Upłynęły lata, kiedy odwiedziłam Crazy Horse Memorial. Urodził się w Bostonie 6 września w 1908 roku. Imię Korczak (które przyjął później sam) pochodzi od herbu rodziny Ziółkowskich. Rodzice jego zginęli tragicznie, kiedy miał rok. Wychowywany był przez różnych ludzi i miał wiele smutnych doświadczeń. Spotkał jednak także osoby, które się nim serdecznie zajęły. Do nich należał rzeźbiarz Jan Kirchmayer, który wykonywał prace rzeźbiarskie w nowojorskiej katedrze, także sędzia Frederick Pickering Cabot. Po śmierci Cabota Korczak wykonał jego popiersie w marmurze. Za rzeźbę popiersia Ignacego Jana Paderewskiego w 1939 roku Nowym Jorku dostał pierwszą nagrodę.

He made his first marble portrait – of a juvenile judge – with a coal chisel when he was 23 years old.

Arch., University of Minnesota, 1955. SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILUIENT OF THE REQUIRIENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF IMSTER OF ARCHITECTURE. MASSAChUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY AUGUST, 1955. Signature of Author Department of Architecture, ug 20, Certified by Head, Department of Architecture abstr act A NUSEMI OF THE NORTH AMERICAN INDIAN Carl R. Nelson, Jr. Submitted for the degree of Master of Architecture in the Department of Architecture on August 20, 1956. Ever since the white man came to the North American continent, the abori- gine has been persecuted, murdered, pushed from his land, and has seen his culture virtually obliterated. In the past, few people have recog- nized the richness and beauty of the Indian tradition, but in the last fifty years some persons have become aware of the plight of the Indian and are determined to do something about it. The men and women comprising the body of the Crazy Horse Commission are some of these interested persons. The commission, founded in 1947 under the leadership of Korczak Ziolkowski4 has dedicated itself to helping the aboriginal people of our continent. Thefunction of the commission is embodied in its three major purposes: one, to create the Crazy Horse Memorial, an area set aside to honor the great Indian leaders; two, the building of the Museum of the North American Indian, where the scattered collections from a hundred-odd museums can be gathered together, inves- tigated, catalogued, and finally displayed before the public in a logical and comprehendible sequence, and three, the establishment of a University and Medical Center with the expressed purpose of helping the Indian to take his rightful place in our society.

My sisters and I were so used to packing up and hitting the road in the family station wagon (later a minivan), that our childhood trips blur together. Oftentimes we visited our paternal grandparents in Sidney, Nebraska, or our maternal grandparents in Lincoln, Nebraska. But on special occasions we would take lengthy road trips that ended with destinations in the Appalachian Mountains, the Gulf of Mexico, Yellowstone National Park, and Myrtle Beach. As an ―East River‖ South Dakotan, driving six hours west to visit the Black Hills was hardly as exciting as going to the beach.
