Sidney epitomized Seeger’s three ideals: “Love and Arms and Song,” which contrasted with the materialism and sophistication of modernity. His embrace of “Arms” and the desire for intense, authentic experience led Seeger, who was living in Paris in August 1914, to enlist in the French Foreign Legion, in which he served until his death in combat in July 1916.

  • Nine Poems, Followed by Democracyand Literature
    Nine Poems by Dale Ritterbusch When it’s Late Sometimes, when it’s late and the house is asleep except for me pacing from room to room, I walk to the backyard, look out across the ground lit only by a distant streetlamp. I remember nights in some Asian bar drinking a few exotic beers that sweat quickly through the khaki’s heavy starch: We’d walk out late go back to the base sleep off as much of the war as we could. When you were killed I drank for days, made love until I couldn’t recall anything but the hot sun, the red dust rising. Now, this late under the circling stars I see you walking in the shadows of these trees sheltering the backyard playthings of my daughter: you pick them up— they are your daughter’s your son’s you have a wife sleeping, dreaming through the rest of her life with you: It is this love I see lost in the shadows of this night, my mind turning back with the chill of late spring. This is the loss, the love I bury each night in the shadows, turning a spadeful of war over and over, and always, in the vigilant spin of this earth digging it up before morning. —from Lessons Learned An International Journal of the Humanities Shoulders for CPT Paul Bowman, KIA VN, 1969 Before you went we sat at the bar in the Officers’ Club and drank and talked—you said the EOD course wasn’t challenging enough, the war was going badly, many mistakes were being made.

  • Imperialism and Progressivism
    001-016 878503-0 5/5/07 10:37 AM Page 13 Name Date Class #######American Literature Readings 3 # # # # # Imperialism and Progressivism INTRODUCTION 3 At the beginning of the 1900s, new and growing industries offered the American people more opportunities than ever before. Under the surface of this growth and prosperity, however, the United States faced serious problems. The cities were growing too fast to UNIT maintain decent housing and services for their populations. Few laws regulated working conditions in the factories. Writers began to use their words to expose political corruption and social evils. When the Great War broke out in Europe in 1914, President Woodrow Wilson asked Americans to remain “neutral in fact as well as in name.” Eventually, neutrality remained impossible. In 1917 American troops entered World War I, one of the bloodiest conflicts in world history. from The Battle With the Slum Jacob A. Riis # About the Selection Jacob A. Riis (1849–1914) immigrated to the United States from Denmark when he was 21 years old. Living in New York City, Riis recognized the cycle of poverty and its effects on the home and community. When he became a newspaper reporter, he drew attention to the fight for social improvement, and his most famous book, How the Other Half Lives, actually led to reforms in tenement housing. In The Battle With the Slum (1902), Riis warns about the effects of not helping the impoverished. raw-Hill Companies, Inc. raw-Hill GUIDED READING As you read, note how Riis compares the slum to an enemy that must be conquered.

  • Pete Seeger: a Singer of Folk Songs
    LINGUACULTURE 2, 2020 PETE SEEGER: A SINGER OF FOLK SONGS DAVID LIVINGSTONE Palacký University Abstract Pete Seeger would have turned one hundred and one on May 3 of this year. To commemorate these ten decades plus one year, I would like to look at eleven of the most remarkable aspects of Pete Seeger’s life, work and legacy. This paper will examine the cultural impact and oral tradition of the music, songs and books of Pete Seeger. This legendary folk musician's career spanned eight decades and touched on many of the key historical developments of the day. He is responsible for some of the iconic songs which have not only helped define American culture, but even beyond. Seeger was also a pioneer in a number of fields, using his music to propagate political convictions, ecological themes, civil rights, world music, education, etc. The folk singer also had his finger on the pulse of a number of developments in American history and culture. He was friends with a number of prominent musicians and artists and influenced an entire range of younger musicians and activists. Keywords: Pete Seeger; Folk music; American history; Social activism; Civil Rights movement Family Pete Seeger’ family was a powerhouse of talent, musically and beyond. Charles Seeger (1886-1979), his father, was a renowned musicologist who held a number of prominent university positions. His political convictions, obviously on the left, were also instrumental in forming his son’s ideological worldview. His mother Constance de Clyver (1886-1975) was also a musician although not as accomplished by far as his stepmother Ruth Seeger (1901-1953) (mother to Mike and Peggy).

Zboray, Professor, Department of Communication ii Copyright © by David W. Seitz 2011 iii GRAVE NEGOTIATIONS: THE RHETORICAL FOUNDATIONS OF AMERICAN WORLD WAR I CEMETERIES IN EUROPE David W. Seitz, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2011 This dissertation uncovers the processes of negotiation between private citizens, President Woodrow Wilson’s administration, the War Department, and the Commission of Fine Arts that led to the establishment and final visual presentation of the United States permanent World War I cemeteries in Europe (sites that are still frequented by tens of thousands of international visitors each year). It employs archival research and the analysis of newspapers and photographs to recover the voices of the many stakeholders involved in the cemeteries’ foundation. Whereas previous studies have attempted to understand American World War I commemoration practices by focusing on postwar rituals of remembrance alone, my study contextualizes and explains postwar commemoration by analyzing the political ideologies, public rhetoric, and material realities of the war years (1914-1918)—ideologies, rhetoric, and material realities that shaped official and vernacular projects of memory after the Armistice.

    POEMS FOR REMBRANCE DAY, NOVEMBER 11 Rendezvous by Alan Seeger I have a rendezvous with Death At some disputed barricade, When Spring comes back with rustling shade And apple-blossoms fill the air – I have a rendezvous with Death When Spring brings back blue days and fair. It may be he shall take my hand And lead me into his dark land And close my eyes and quench my breath – It may be I shall pass him still. I have a rendezvous with Death On some scarred slope of battered hill, When Spring comes round again this year And the first meadow-flowers appear. God knows 'twere better to be deep Pillowed in silk and scented down, Where love throbs out in blissful sleep, Pulse nigh to pulse, and breath to breath, Where hushed awakenings are dear . But I've a rendezvous with Death At midnight in some flaming town, When Spring trips north again this year, And I to my pledged word am true, Alan Seeger (1886-1916) I shall not fail that rendezvous. Age 22 Alan Seeger (1888 - 1916) was an American poet who fought and died in World War I serving in the French Foreign Legion. A statue to his memory and to the memory of his comrades, Americans who had volunteered to fight for France, was erected in the Place des États-Unis, Paris. He was contemporary with poet T.S. Eliot. His brother Charles Seeger, a noted musicologist, was the father of the American folk singer, Pete Seeger. Alan Seeger entered Harvard in 1906, graduating in 1910.

  • The Pragmatics of Romance in the First World War' Poetry
    AWEJ for Translation & Literary Studies, Volume3, Number4. October 2019 Pp. 61-85 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.24093/awejtls/vol3no4.6 The Pragmatics of Romance in the First World War' Poetry Jinan Kadhim Isma'eel English Department, College of Education for Women University of Baghdad. Iraq Rufaidah Kamal Abdulmajeed English Department, College of Education for Women University of Baghdad. Iraq Abstract Many influences have shaped literature; war is one of them. Among the horrors, death tolls, destructions, and chaos, there should be inevitably a beam of light of hope, a desirous and eagerness for long life, expressions of love, loyalty to the homeland and other feelings that carry a sense of romance in different shapes. This study hypothesized that romance is found in war poetry, and it has various meanings other than the conventional definition; the scope of the meanings of the word romance is either expanded or shrunk. The expansion happens throughout the appearance of new meanings. They were not there before or after this time. The shrinking happens when some of the meanings are vanished and no longer used as a denotation of romance. These meanings are realized in various pragmatic devices. The war poems selected for this study are Rupert Brooke's The Soldiers and Allan Seeger's I Have a Rendezvous with Death. The results show that romance has (34) meanings. Of them, is 'Idealization' and 'heroism'; which score the highest frequency and appear (5) times equal to (31%); 'Love and intimacy' comes next with (3) times equal to (19%); 'Bravery' scores (2) times equal to (13%); and finally 'Patriotism' registers the lowest frequency with (1) time, equal to (6%).
