  • Nominees and Bios
    Nominees for the Virginia Emancipation Memorial Pre‐Emancipation Period 1. Emanuel Driggus, fl. 1645–1685 Northampton Co. Enslaved man who secured his freedom and that of his family members Derived from DVB entry: http://www.lva.virginia.gov/public/dvb/bio.asp?b=Driggus_Emanuel Emanuel Driggus (fl. 1645–1685), an enslaved man who secured freedom for himself and several members of his family exemplified the possibilities and the limitations that free blacks encountered in seventeenth‐century Virginia. His name appears in the records of Northampton County between 1645 and 1685. He might have been the Emanuel mentioned in 1640 as a runaway. The date and place of his birth are not known, nor are the date and circumstances of his arrival in Virginia. His name, possibly a corruption of a Portuguese surname occasionally spelled Rodriggus or Roddriggues, suggests that he was either from Africa (perhaps Angola) or from one of the Caribbean islands served by Portuguese slave traders. His first name was also sometimes spelled Manuell. Driggus's Iberian name and the aptitude that he displayed maneuvering within the Virginia legal system suggest that he grew up in the ebb and flow of people, goods, and cultures around the Atlantic littoral and that he learned to navigate to his own advantage. 2. James Lafayette, ca. 1748–1830 New Kent County Revolutionary War spy emancipated by the House of Delegates Derived from DVB/ EV entry: http://www.encyclopediavirginia.org/Lafayette_James_ca_1748‐1830 James Lafayette was a spy during the American Revolution (1775–1783). Born a slave about 1748, he was a body servant for his owner, William Armistead, of New Kent County, in the spring of 1781.

  • Greenough's Theory of Beauty
    GREENOUGH'S THEORY OF BEAUTY IN ARCHITECTURE* ORATIO GREENOUGH was born in Boston, Sep- H tember 6, 1805, one of eleven children of a successful self-made man who dealt in real estate and built some of the houses in Colonnade Row. Horatio studied at Harvard in the early 1820's. This was evidently a difficult time in the history of the great university. He describes his educa- tion there in the following manner: "Fain would I also lay cIairn to the title of self-made man; indeed, I graduated at Harvard . which they who knew the scliool will allow was near enough self-making to satisfy any reasonable am- bition."' Greenough left before the end of his senior year for Italy, his diploma following after; he was determined to be a sculptor and could not begin too soon. He had encourage- ment from Washington Allston, and letters of introduction and recommendation to Thorwaldsen in Rome. In 1829 he set up a studio in Florence, where he became, "in a manner," as his brother Henry said, "a pupil of Bartolini," an Italian portrait sculptor whose work he admired; and in the course of the next twenty-two years, most of which he spent in Florence, he produced many portrait busts on commission, also full-lengths, and several imaginative groups, single fig- ures and bas-reliefs. His sitters, abroad or at home, included John Quincy Adams, Lafayette, and James Fenimore Cooper. For Cooper he produced the "Chanting Cherubs," the first marble group from the chisel of an American artist. Allston wrote to Daniel Webster recommending Greenough to exe- " A public lecture delivered at the Rice Institute on November 11, 1951, 96 Greenough and Beauty in Architecture 9'7 cute a statue of George Washington for the government; Cooper and Edward Everett backed the recommendation, and the result was the seated figure, 11 feet 4 inches high, intended for the rotunda of the Capitol, which is now in the Smithsonian Institution.

  • Updating the Constitution: Amending, Tinkering, Interpreting
    University of Connecticut OpenCommons@UConn Faculty Articles and Papers School of Law 2019 Updating the Constitution: Amending, Tinkering, Interpreting Richard Kay Follow this and additional works at: https://opencommons.uconn.edu/law_papers Part of the Constitutional Law Commons Recommended Citation Kay, Richard, "Updating the Constitution: Amending, Tinkering, Interpreting" (2019). Faculty Articles and Papers. 517. https://opencommons.uconn.edu/law_papers/517 UPDATING THE CONSTITUTION: AMENDING, TINKERING, INTERPRETING Richard S. Kay* ABSTRACT The U.S. Constitution is now 230 years old, and it is showing its age. Its text, taken in the sense that its enactors understood it, is, unsurprisingly,inadequate to the needs of a large,populous twenty-first century nation. The Constitution creates a government that is carefully insulated from the democratic preferences of the population. It fails to vest the central government with the tools needed to manage and regulate a vast, complicated, and interrelatedsociety and economy. On the other hand, it guarantees its citizens protection of only a limited set of human rights. Notwithstanding these blatant defects, the means provided in the constitutional text to change it, to improve it, are insufficient to make it appropriate for current conditions. There is reason to be skeptical of studies purportingto measure the difficulty of constitutionalamendment procedures.But combined with an inspection of the text and the history of amendment, this research is persuasive and supports the claim that reliance on Article V's procedures are unlikely to successfully reform the Constitution. On top of these objective measures, moreover, constitutional revision in the United States is hampered by a widely held, though uninformed, opinion that the current Constitution is still protecting national welfare and that any change-any tinkering-with the rules in that document bears a heavy burden of persuasion.

  • Monuments and Memorials in Randolph County by L
    Monuments and Memorials in Randolph County By L. McKay Whatley Jr. Randolph County has a rather meager history of any kind of monuments or memorials. The county has no privately-erected monuments anywhere to battles, events or public figures; there are 12 state Highway Historical Markers, including one to Governor Jonathan Worth, which is on the Salisbury Street right of way on the courthouse property.1 This program has been operated since 1936 by the Office of Archives and History in the Department of Cultural and Natural Resources, and has no connection with and requires no input from the county. The Sheriff’s Department has a Memorial Wall listing every Randolph County Sheriff. There are no memorials or even public lists anywhere on county property of the names of county commissioners, justices of the peace, Clerks of Court, Registers of Deeds, or other elected officials. Group photographs of the boards of county commissioners since 1984 are displayed on the wall leading to the county manager’s office at the Randolph County Office Building so that visitors will have a historical image of those who made the decisions that have helped Randolph County get to where it is now, but no group photographs of the boards of commissioner prior to 1984 have not been found. There are and have been a number of Veteran’s Memorials erected in the county both on public and private property. There are no known memorials or monuments to veterans of the Revolutionary War, War of 1812, Mexican War, or Spanish-American War (although there is, on the grounds of the State Capitol, a monument to the first casualty of the Spanish-American War – Worth Bagley, the grandson of Governor Jonathan Worth).

  • The Sculpture of Jacques Lipchitz
    The sculpture of Jacques Lipchitz Author Hope, Henry R. (Henry Radford), 1905- 1989 Date 1954 Publisher The Museum of Modern Art: Distributed by Simon & Schuster Exhibition URL www.moma.org/calendar/exhibitions/2913 The Museum of Modern Art's exhibition history— from our founding in 1929 to the present—is available online. It includes exhibition catalogues, primary documents, installation views, and an index of participating artists. MoMA © 2017 The Museum of Modern Art The Sculpture of Jacques Lipchitz 96 pages; 100 plates $3.00 The Sculpture of Jacques Lipchitz BY HENRY R. HOPE No other sculptor of Lipchitz' generation can show such multifarious variety of style or so great a range of feeling. His art matured under the stimulus, and within the discipline, of cubism whose sculptural potentialities he brilliantly ex plored for over ten years. Since the thirties, his work has shown a vigor and eloquence which allies him with the tradition of Bernini and Rodin. Central to Lipchitz' evolution as an artist is the transition from the impersonal collective style of cubism to an art more personal in accent and theme. This transition is studied in detail by Mr. Hope, who gives special attention to his transparents, the revolutionary, small, open- form bronzes, cast in the difficult "lost wax" technique which marked the turning point in his own art and were to have widespread influence. In this first monograph on the artist in English, one hundred plates illustrate all periods of his career, including each of his major large-scale sculptures. Related drawings supplement the sculpture, and many small terracotta sketches document the original inspiration for several master works.

  • Texas Ten: Preserving the State's
    TEXAS HISTORICAL COMIVIISSION FINAL REPORT Texas Historical Commission Conservation Treatment for Ten Historic Outdoor Sculptvires Funded by a Federal Grant under the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 FOREWORD Thi s report provides the reader with an opportunit\' to learn about recent conservation projects carried out on some of Texas' most important outdoor sculptures. It also documents those projects for future generations and educates readers about proper maintenance methods for outdoor sculpture. It is not a handbook for performing conservation work on similar projects; that work is best performed by professionals. At the time the Federal program called the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 (ISTEA) was introduced, a state-wide survey of all the outdoor sculpture in Texas had commenced with the aid of Save Outdoor Sculpture! (SOS!), a joint project of Heritage Preservation and the Smithsonian's National Museum of American Art. The statewide survey of outdoor sculpture was a cooperative project among several SOS! grant recipients: Dallas/Fort Worth: Adopt-A Monument/Urban Strategies of Tarrant Count)'; San Antonio: City of San Antonio Planning Department; and Austin: Art in Public Places Program. The remainder of the state, including Houston and El Paso, was surveyed by the Texas Historical Commission (THC) under the direction of Hillary Summers. Her tireless efforts helped train scores of volunteers throughout the state on how to read a sculpture and fill out the SOS! inventory forms, assemble this information and set up a database with the aid of many Universit)' of Texas student interns. The ISTEA program arrixed at a perfect time.
