  • Chapter Twenty-Five “This Damned Old House” the Lincoln Family In
    Chapter Twenty-five “This Damned Old House” The Lincoln Family in the Executive Mansion During the Civil War, the atmosphere in the White House was usually sober, for as John Hay recalled, it “was an epoch, if not of gloom, at least of a seriousness too intense to leave room for much mirth.”1 The death of Lincoln’s favorite son and the misbehavior of the First Lady significantly intensified that mood. THE WHITE HOUSE The White House failed to impress Lincoln’s other secretaries, who disparaged its “threadbare appearance” and referred to it as “a dirty rickety concern.”2 A British journalist thought it beautiful in the moonlight, “when its snowy walls stand out in contrast to the night, deep blue skies, but not otherwise.”3 The Rev. Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler asserted that the “shockingly careless appearance of the White House proved that whatever may have been Mrs. Lincoln’s other good qualities, she hadn’t earned the compliment which the Yankee farmer paid to his wife when he said: ‘Ef my wife haint got an ear fer music, she’s got an eye for dirt.’”4 The north side of the Executive 1 John Hay, “Life in the White House in the Time of Lincoln,” in Michael Burlingame, ed., At Lincoln’s Side: John Hay’s Civil War Correspondence and Selected Writings (Carbondale: Southern Illinois University Press, 2000), 134. 2 William O.

  • Jacqueline Kennedy and the Refashioning of American Cultural Visuality in the Early 1960S
    Wesleyan University The Honors College A Transformation of the First Ladyship: Jacqueline Kennedy and the Refashioning of American Cultural Visuality in the Early 1960s by Maria Nicole Massad Class of 2016 A thesis submitted to the faculty of Wesleyan University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Arts with Departmental Honors in History Middletown, Connecticut April 12, 2016 Acknowledgements Before I begin my analysis of Jacqueline Kennedy’s First Ladyship, I want to thank several people without whom their guidance this project might never have been possible. First, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my thesis advisor, Professor Patricia Hill. I owe so much to your wisdom, good judgment, and enthusiasm for my project. You helped me better articulate my ideas and strengthen my writing into a more cohesive argument. Your direction and support have been invaluable, and I sincerely thank you for your mentorship. To my academic advisor, Professor Ronald Schatz, who has cheered me on throughout my career as a student of history at Wesleyan University and ardently encouraged my decision to write a thesis. I am so grateful that I chose to take your “20th Century U.S. History” course; after all, it planted the seed of inquiry in my mind to investigate the impact of American culture during the 1960s. To Lauren Noyes and the staff of the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library, I thank you for assisting with my research endeavors in the archives this past summer. If not for your help, this project would not have come to fruition.

As a result, by the end of the 19th century, James Hoban’s original groin vaulting( 穹 棱拱顶 ) in the wide corridor of this floor had been cut through in numerous places to accommodate pipes and ducts. The furnace room (now the Diplomatic Reception Room) also jutted into the corridor. • When McKim, Mead, & White created a new guest entrance in the East Wing （东厢 房） during the 1902 renovation of the White House, they transformed much of the Ground Floor into public space.
