This is an interview with David T. Jones. This is being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training and I’m Charles Stuart Kennedy. Let’s begin at the beginning. Could you tell me when and where you were born and something about your family? JONES: Okay. I was born on December 22, 1941, in Scranton, Pennsylvania. My parents were Scrantonians. My entire background in that regard was Northeast Pennsylvania, the United States, back to colonial times. My father was an architect, and an industrial designer. He graduated from the University of Pennsylvania. My mother was a dietician and a housewife. She graduated from Pratt Institute in New York City, NY. I was educated in the public school system in Scranton. I went to the University of Pennsylvania and graduated in 1963 with a degree in political science. Q: I’ll move you back a bit. Where did you go to grammar school? JONES: I walked to grammar school. The school was the school that my mother and my uncle had attended: Alexander Hamilton #19 school in Scranton. Scranton, in that era, was a dying anthracite coal town. For a century, they had dug anthracite coal out of the Lackawanna Valley. When they had dug all the coal out of the Lackawanna Valley, Scranton just shriveled up, like most natural resource town. A town that had been 140,000 people in the 1940s when I was born and during World War II steadily went downhill. Right now, they say that the principal industry in Scranton is Social Security. The population is about 80,000. Q: What classes were most interesting to you? JONES: I was really interested in just about everything. I was, however, particularly interested in history. There wasn’t a concept for me of “political science” or “international relations.” These disciplines didn’t exist. On the other hand, the very first thing that I remember being interested in on an international relations format was the Korean War. I was perhaps eight and a half when the war started in 1950. I followed it very closely in the daily newspapers and in Time magazine. One of my father’s little stories about me was that during the Korean War when I was about nine years old, somebody asked, “Well, what do you think should be done about the war?” I piped up and said, “I like MacArthur’s views on the subject!” All of a sudden, that ended the discussion of the Korean War, and it went on from there. I don’t remember this instance, but there were those that thought I was saying too much already. Q: When you got to high school, did you concentrate in certain areas? 5 JONES: At that point, my major interests were science and chemistry. So many of us at that era were particularly focused on what was happening in those fields because of “sputnik” and what this meant for East-West struggles. One of the things that most interested me at that point was science. I was academically equally strong at that point in both sciences and in history and social studies. Actually, I graduated first in both the science and history curriculums at the Central High School, which was the college preparatory high school for the Scranton area. Q: Were you thinking about what you were going to get to? JONES: Yes. My interests at that point were in science. That was the direction in which I was headed academically and personally. This was what I was most interested in studying professionally at the time. At the same time, I read an enormous amount of history – Civil War history, World War II history, a wide range of military history. Q: Did service abroad strike you as being interesting at that time or did that come later? JONES: No, I wouldn’t say I had any special interest in service abroad. Although my parents were really quite educated for the time – at university level – they were not traveled. Neither one of them had been further outside the United States than to Canada. I did not have other relatives who had traveled widely, although this was also a very highly educated family, certainly for the day and the era. I didn’t really think of “Let’s go to Europe or anywhere else.” My personal horizons really until I went to college were pretty limited. I don’t think I had traveled further south than Washington, DC, by the time I was a senior in high school or further north than a brief trip to Canada in the same period of time. I had been as far west as Pittsburgh. This is a pretty limited circumstance geographically. I think of it in comparison to the life that my children have led or for that matter the life that my wife has led. But academically, my interests were almost between pages of books. This was also not even a period when there was a lot of television available – at least in my family which didn’t have television until I was about 12 years old. Q: You were in high school from when to when? JONES: ’55 to ’59. My family came a little bit late to television. We didn’t have a television set until ’54, something like that. I was always sort of dismissive of television except for a handful of shows. Q: Milton Berle, of course. JONES: I never saw Milton Berle. It doesn’t register at all. I saw a little bit of Sid Cesar. I saw a little bit of “This is Your Hit Parade.” I did enjoy almost all of the episodes of “Victory at Sea.” Q: This was the U.S. Navy. 6 JONES: Yes. There were follow-on aspects of U.S. Air Force. It was real footage, something that was very different. That tied in very tightly with my interest in military history. So, I saw a fair amount of that and did that kind of reading and watching. Q: Did you get down to Gettysburg? JONES: Yes. And to Valley Forge as a boy. I had studied the Gettysburg battle as part of my Civil War history reading. I may have seen some of the fortifications around the Philadelphia area. I also was very interested in the Kenneth Roberts books. Rabble in Arms .

The revolu- operating incessantly to undermine and subvert our tions to which we refer are the COVID- constitutional Republic and our Christian-style civilization. 19 revolution and the Black Lives Matter revolution, which, combined, are wreak- ing unprecedented havoc and destruction — political, social, economic, moral, and spiritual — worldwide. As we will show, these two seemingly unrelated upheavals are very closely tied together, and are but the latest and most profound manifesta- tions of a global revolutionary transfor- mation that has been under way for many years. Both of these revolutions are being stoked and orchestrated by elitist forces that intend to unmake the United States of America and extinguish liberty as we know it everywhere. In his famous “Lectures on the French Revolution,” delivered at Cambridge University between 1895 and 1899, the distinguished British historian and states- man John Emerich Dalberg, more com- monly known as Lord Acton, noted: “The appalling thing in the French Revolution is not the tumult, but the design. Through all the fire and smoke we perceive the evidence of calculating organization.

  • Addition to Summer Letter
    May 2020 Dear Student, You are enrolled in Advanced Placement English Literature and Composition for the coming school year. Bowling Green High School has offered this course since 1983. I thought that I would tell you a little bit about the course and what will be expected of you. Please share this letter with your parents or guardians. A.P. Literature and Composition is a year-long class that is taught on a college freshman level. This means that we will read college level texts—often from college anthologies—and we will deal with other materials generally taught in college. You should be advised that some of these texts are sophisticated and contain mature themes and/or advanced levels of difficulty. In this class we will concentrate on refining reading, writing, and critical analysis skills, as well as personal reactions to literature. A.P. Literature is not a survey course or a history of literature course so instead of studying English and world literature chronologically, we will be studying a mix of classic and contemporary pieces of fiction from all eras and from diverse cultures. This gives us an opportunity to develop more than a superficial understanding of literary works and their ideas. Writing is at the heart of this A.P. course, so you will write often in journals, in both personal and researched essays, and in creative responses. You will need to revise your writing. I have found that even good students—like you—need to refine, mature, and improve their writing skills. You will have to work diligently at revising major essays.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 bLOSiL ZZLL d ABSTRACT This thesis analyses the external and internal influences on the process of state formation in Oman since 1920 and places this process in comparative perspective with the other states of the Gulf Cooperation Council. It considers the extent to which the concepts of informal empire and collaboration are useful in analysing the relationship between Oman, Britain and the United States. The theoretical framework is the historical materialist paradigm of International Relations. State formation in Oman since 1920 is examined in a historical narrative structured by three themes: (1) the international context of Western involvement, (2) the development of Western strategic interests in Oman and (3) their economic, social and political impact on Oman.

  • The Cultural Cold War in the Middle East : William Faulkner and Franklin Book Programs
    The cultural Cold War in the Middle East William Faulkner and Franklin Book Programs Esmaeil Haddadian-Moghaddam Universiteit Leiden William Faulkner is an interesting case for the history of American cultural diplomacy. Although the State Department hailed him as a Cold War war- rior, it had difficulty sponsoring his “modernist” novels in a book program that promoted American ideals during the Cold War. In this article I exam- ine how the Franklin Book Programs arranged for some of Faulkner’s novels to be translated into Arabic and Persian by using sources from the Program’s archive and an interview with a former Franklin editor. The analysis is framed by Faulkner’s rise in status from a marginal to a major world writer. I also assess the cultural forces that led to his inclusion in Franklin’s list of publications. The analysis reveals a tension between American idealism and Cold War imperatives, further challenging the propagandist reading of the program and calling for a more nuanced understanding of the dynamics of the cultural Cold War in the region. Keywords: William Faulkner, the cultural Cold War, Franklin Book Programs, cultural diplomacy, the Middle East Mr. Smith writes a letter 10 January 1957, New York To: Mtre. Hassan Galal el-Aroussy, Cairo, Egypt Subject: Faulkner, [the] ‘Sound and [the] Fury Maybe I am just a sissy, but I honestly cannot bear the thought of the criticism which I believe would come down upon Franklin from both Arabs and Americans if this hair-raising piece of realism – which, as indicated in my cable I prefer to call “nihilism’ – should appear under our sponsorship when the total number of American novels in Arabic is still so small.There is no question about Faulkner’s greatness, and I am inclined to agree that this work is typical; but if you are inclined to be impatient with me about the judgment I have expressed I would beg that you yourself read the book and see whether you do not agree with me.

McGuire, Committee Chair Dr. William C. Norman, Committee Chair Dr. Kenneth F. Backman Dr. DeWayne Moore ABSTRACT People experience various significant events across their life course. The purpose of this study was to explore what turning point events occur and how these events influence travel style among first generation older Korean immigrants. To accomplish this, 33 interviewees were recruited by using theoretical sampling and a semi-structured interview with the retrospective interview technique. Following the grounded theory approach (Strauss & Corbin, 1990, 1998; Corbin 2008), several themes emerged that created turning point events and travel styles among first generation older Korean immigrants.
