  • European Treaties Bearing on the History of the United States and Its Dependencies
    European Treaties bearing on the History of the United States and its Dependencies to 1648 EDITED BY FRANCES GARDINER DAVENPORT WASHINGTON, D. C. Published by the Carnegie Institution of Washington 1917 Digitized by Google £77 ;? 3)aV CARNEGIE INSTITUTION OF WASHINGTON Publication No. 254 Papers of the Department of Historical Research J. Franklin Jamison, Editor 249833 Cft £or& ®affimor< fp«6* !' AI.TIMORR, m>., C. I. A. Digitized by Google PREFACE. The colonial dependence of the American settlements upon various Euro- pean governments brings it about, as a necessary consequence, that several of the treaties between European governments, and several of the bulls issued by the popes in virtue of their powers of international regulation, are funda- mental documents for some of the earlier portions of American history. Other treaties, or individual articles in treaties, of the period before inde- pendence, though not of fundamental importance to that history, have affected it in greater or less degree. In the period since the United States became independent, though the treaties most important to their history have been those made by their own government, not a few of the treaties concluded between European powers have had an influential bearing on the course of their development and their public action. Taken altogether, therefore, European treaties, and the earlier papal bulls, form an important portion of the original material for American history. Yet access to authentic and exact texts of them is far from easy. In a few cases, as the researches made for this volume have shown, they do not exist in print.

  • Exemplar Texts for Grades
    COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects _____ Appendix B: Text Exemplars and Sample Performance Tasks OREGON COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS FOR English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Exemplars of Reading Text Complexity, Quality, and Range & Sample Performance Tasks Related to Core Standards Selecting Text Exemplars The following text samples primarily serve to exemplify the level of complexity and quality that the Standards require all students in a given grade band to engage with. Additionally, they are suggestive of the breadth of texts that students should encounter in the text types required by the Standards. The choices should serve as useful guideposts in helping educators select texts of similar complexity, quality, and range for their own classrooms. They expressly do not represent a partial or complete reading list. The process of text selection was guided by the following criteria: Complexity. Appendix A describes in detail a three-part model of measuring text complexity based on qualitative and quantitative indices of inherent text difficulty balanced with educators’ professional judgment in matching readers and texts in light of particular tasks. In selecting texts to serve as exemplars, the work group began by soliciting contributions from teachers, educational leaders, and researchers who have experience working with students in the grades for which the texts have been selected. These contributors were asked to recommend texts that they or their colleagues have used successfully with students in a given grade band. The work group made final selections based in part on whether qualitative and quantitative measures indicated that the recommended texts were of sufficient complexity for the grade band.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Colby Quarterly by an authorized editor of Digital Commons @ Colby. Vallier: The Role of Celia Thaxter in American Literary History: An Overvi The Role of Celia Thaxter in American Literary History: An Overview by JANE VALLIER HERE are two stories to tell about the lives of many women writers T in nineteenth-century America. The first story, whether it be told about Margaret Fuller, Emily Dickinson or Celia Thaxter, is a rather conventional melodrama about a talented woman who stole time from her domestic duties to write an amazing quantity of literature, some of it a recognizable variation on the "standard" literature written by Emer­ son, Longfellow and Whittier. The superficial "first story" has been chronicled in American literary history by generations of critics and his­ torians who concluded that women in nineteenth-century America­ with the exception of Emily Dickinson, perhaps-wrote an enormous pile of second-rate literature, the imputed inferiority of which was based in the erroneous but widespread belief that female experience was in itself an inferior fornl of human experience. Typical of the muddled judgment women's writing has received is this statement made by Robert Spiller in The Cycle ofAmerican Literature, 1955: "There is something about the way women lived in the nineteenth century that encouraged repression."· Spiller, like most of the literary historians of his and earlier generations, was content to leave that "something" a vague and unsolvable mystery; "something" was not worth investigating.
