The doctrine of separate spheres, which had been such a mainstay of Industrial Revolution-era America, was blurring rapidly, as many reformists, like suffragists, pressed for greater gender equality.

  • Historical Context: the Great Gatsby EXPLORING Novels, 2003
    Historical Context: The Great Gatsby EXPLORING Novels, 2003 The Jazz Age and the Roaring Twenties The Jazz Age began soon after World War I and ended with the 1929 stock market crash. Victorious, America experienced an economic boom and expansion. Politically, the country made major advances in the area of women's independence. During the war, women had enjoyed economic independence by taking over jobs for the men who fought overseas. After the war, they pursued financial independence and a freer lifestyle. This was the time of the "flappers," young women who dressed up in jewelry and feather boas, wore bobbed hairdos, and danced the Charleston. Zelda Fitzgerald and her cronies, including Sara Murphy, exemplified the ultimate flapper look. In The Great Gatsby, Jordan Baker is an athletic, independent woman, who maintains a hardened, amoral view of life. Her character represents the new breed of woman in America with a sense of power during this time. As a reaction against the fads and liberalism that emerged in the big cities after the war, the U.S. Government and conservative elements in the country advocated and imposed legislation restricting the manufacture and distribution of liquor. Its organizers, the Women's Christian Temperance Movement, National Prohibition Party, and others, viewed alcohol as a dangerous drug that disrupted lives and families. They felt it the duty of the government to relieve the temptation of alcohol by banning it altogether. In January, 1919, the U.S. Congress ratified the 18th Amendment to the Constitution that outlawed the "manufacture, sale, or transportation of intoxicating liquors" on a national level.

  • 1 Executing Whiteness: Popular Representations
    1 EXECUTING WHITENESS: POPULAR REPRESENTATIONS OF CAPITAL PUNISHMENT IN THE UNITED STATES, 1915-1940 Daniel LaChance1 This is a work in progress; please do not cite or circulate without the permission of the author. A hush falls over the death house. The witnesses assemble in the death chamber. The final curtain in this drama, where human life plays the leading role, is about to rise.2 Whitner Cary, The Atlanta Constitution, 1928 Over the course of the nineteenth century, elites in the United States increasingly sought to privatize executions and standardize execution protocols. The source of this change is well known to historians of punishment: a fear that public executions had become unwieldy spectacles drove state actors to move these events into jail yards, at first, and then, with the advent of new technologies like the electric chair (1890) and the gas chamber (1924), into the interior of centralized prisons that were often far from the county in which the crime had occurred.3 Access to executions was dramatically curtailed—limited, in most places, to professionals whose restraint and solemnity would reinforce the emerging technocratic ethos of the punishment.4 In some states, newspapers were unsuccessfully banned from reporting details beyond the fact that the execution had been carried out.5 Indeed, the desire to bring an end to the 1 Assistant Professor of History, Emory University ([email protected]).

  • 62Nd POLICE PRECINCT STATION HOUSE (Now 41St Police Precinct Station House) 1086 Simpson Street, Borough of the Bronx
    Landmarks Preservation Commission June 2, 1992; Designation List 245 LP-1809 62nd POLICE PRECINCT STATION HOUSE (now 41st Police Precinct Station House) 1086 Simpson Street, Borough of The Bronx. Built 1912-14; Hazzard, Erskine & Blagden, architects. Landmark Site: Borough of The Bronx Tax Map Block 2727, Lot 17. On September 11, 1990, the Landmarks Preservation Commission held a public hearing on the proposed designation as a Landmark of the 62nd Police Precinct Station House (now 41st Police Precinct Station House), and the proposed designation of the related Landmark Site (Item No. 9).1 The hearing had been duly advertised in accordance with the provisions of law. One witness testified in favor of the designation. A letter was received from the Police Commissioner requesting that the Commission defer action on the proposed designation until after April 1992. A letter was received from a representative of Community Board 2 opposing designation. DESCRIPTION AND ANALYSIS Summary The 62nd Police Precinct Station House, with its monumental ground-story arcade of bold, bull-nosed rustication and contrasting upper stories of smooth-faced ashlar limestone, was built in 1912-14 for a new police precinct in the West Farms area of the Bronx, then undergoing rapid development and increase in population. Designed by the architectural firm of Hazzard, Erskine & Blagden in the neo-Renaissance style considered appropriate for an arm of municipal government, the station house reflects the vision of the City Beautiful movement. The three-story limestone Simpson Avenue facade is surmounted by a richly ornamented terra-cotta cornice and broad-eaved hipped roof (originally of green tile) evoking the fifteenth- and early sixteenth-century palaces of Florence and Rome.

MACHCINSKI ABSTRACT Historically the 1920s contained growing tensions among the generations, classes and races. To hear that it is turbulent is not new. This becomes part of the frame for the 1925 novel, The Great Gatsby. The other part, which this thesis treats, is that of the moral and legal crime taking place within the novel itself. Beginning with the real-life Hall-Mills murder case, the thesis enumerates and details many, often overlooked, moral and legal crimes by every character within the book. Through this is it my intention to elucidate the potentiality of F. Scott Fitzgerald to portray a culture in crisis. Furthermore, it attempts to highlight the complexities taking place within the novel and Fitzgerald’s possible intentions.

THE DEATH PENALTY IN NEW YORK: AN HISTORICAL PERSPECTIVE Michael Lumer and Nancy Tenney* INTRODUCTION After more than three decades without an execution in New York, on March 7, 1995, Governor George Pataki signed a law reintroducing the death penalty into New York's criminal justice system.' Prior to Governor Pataki's election, the anti-death penalty stance of Governors Hugh Carey and Mario Cuomo guaranteed that all legislative attempts to restore capital punishment would be vetoed.2 As a candidate, Pataki made his support of capital punishment a prominent campaign theme and it seems clear that a majority of New Yorkers endorsed the death penalty through their votes in the 1994 gubernatorial elections.' It remains to be seen, * Michael Lumer, Associate, Law Offices of James C.

  • Day 218 — the Trial of the Century (4 Jul 2013)
    The Trial of the Century By Caitlin Shayda Jones Published: November 14, 2012 | Last modified: July 4, 2013 Permalink: http://239days.com/2012/11/14/the-trial-of-the-century/ ON JULY 16, 1912, at approximately 2 a.m., “Lefty Louie” Rosenberg, “Whitey” Lewis, “Dago Frank” Cirofici, and “Gyp the Blood” Horowitz loitered outside the Hotel Metropole at 147 West 43rd Street, just off Times Square. When a slightly overweight man in a black striped suit emerged from the hotel, they reached into their pockets, each took out a revolver, and they shot him dead. Their victim had barely hit the sidewalk when the four gunmen jumped into a big white car, which had been waiting for them up the block, and raced off toward Sixth Avenue. That same evening, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá had returned to Manhattan from Brooklyn to attend a wedding ceremony. Although he didn’t comment on the murder case itself, he had written about preventing crime, not by reforming laws or inventing new methods of punishing criminals, but through the education and moral development of society. The bystanders who rushed to the murder scene recognized the victim instantly — it was Herman Rosenthal, whose face had been all over the news. He ran illegal casinos in cahoots with Charles Becker, a forty-three-year-old lieutenant of the New York Police Department. Just two days before his murder, Rosenthal had told the press about how much money Becker had extorted from him. Becker and the four shooters were charged with first-degree murder. The complicated and sensational story of the Rosenthal murder, the corruption in the police force, and the resulting trial — one of the first that dealt with gang crime in New York — was featured on the cover of the New York Times for weeks.
