The list of books for township li- braries will be compiled as soon as possible. The new catalog is an enlargement of "A First Selection of 500 Children's Books for a Library" compiled originally for the State Library, by Miss Effie L. Powers, children's librarian of the Public Library, St. Louis, Mo. The resent compilation has been made by Miss Mabel C. True. The books E ave been selected after personal examination and reference to library lists made by librarians, whose judgment cannot be doubted. When possible a choice of different editions has been given, but in all cases an effort has been made to avoid cheaply bound and poorly made books. The more expensive editions are not recommended for purchase by schools which have a limited amount of money. The text of the several editions is identical, the difference being in the paper, binding and illustrations. The discount price in the catalog is the price for which the books should be furnished to Libraries and, in all cases, be allowed by bookdealers; if the local dealer will not follow those prices the following bookdealers in Michigan have agreed to furnish them: McCaulev Bros Detroit J. V. Sheehan & Co Detroit George Wahr Ann Arbor Crotty Bros Lansing These prices do not, however, include freight or express charges which are paid by the purchaser from the point from which the books are purchased. It is proposed to issue semi-annually supplementary lists of new books, thus keeping the purchasers in touch with late publications. The books contained in the catalog will be permanently placed in the State library for inspection by school officers and others who may wish to personally ex- amine the books before purchasing. It has been unofficially stated that the amendment to the parcel post law, which will become operative March 15, 1914, provides for the inclusion of books, also an increase in the number of pounds which may be sent and a decrease in the rates. Under this amendment packages of books weighing not more than twenty pounds may be sent, through the mail; full information on this subject mav be obtained from the postmaster. FRED A.

The approach highlights especially the meaning of socio•historical and religious factors in the emergence of the Mission view of Messianic Jewish women. Ukraine, the location of this study case, is an ex•Soviet country of about 48 million citizens with 100 ethnic nationalities. Members of the Jewish Faith form one of those ethnic groups. Following the Russian revolution in 1989 and then the establishing of an independent Ukraine in 1991, the country descended into economic disaster with many consequent social problems.

  • Nationalism Manuscript NN1549
    Lauenstein, Murer, Boos & Reicher Nationalism, Gender and the Representation ‘Oh motherland I pledge to thee…’: A Study into Nationalism, Gender and the Representation of an Imagined Family Within National Anthems. Nations, Walzer (1967, quoted after Cerulo 1995: 3) notes, have to be ‘imagined before they can be conceived and symbolised before they can be loved’. Even within academic debates, symbolic representations are sometimes at the core of understandings of nationhood: Anderson’s (1983) use of the emblematic Tomb of the Unknown Soldier to illustrate the ‘imagined community’ is a prominent example. Arguably, representations like this are part and parcel of engaging with nations both theoretically as well as empirically. Most theories within nationalism studies employ some kind of metaphor, analogy or other symbolic representation to buttress their claims or make them more easily comprehensible. To provide some examples, Smith's (1991) notion of belonging is strongly linked to understanding nationhood as akin to clans or tribes; Breuilly’s (1993) emphasis on statehood and sovereignty is reminiscent of bureaucratic imagery; and when Gellner (2006) stresses the importance of a common culture, a state-sponsored educational programme comes to mind. Given that inventing national symbols and traditions is an inherent part of nation-building (Hobsbawn 1990), finding them mirrored in academic debates is hardly surprising. While analysing the analogies drawn on by scholars in the field of nationalism studies would be a fascinating project in its own right, the aim of this paper is somewhat different. Firstly, in revisiting some of the major feminist critiques levelled against prominent theories on nationhood, we aim to illustrate how some imaginations of nationhood will lead us to – deliberately or not – omit crucial differences and inequalities within the nation.

  • Vanguard Label Discography Was Compiled Using Our Record Collections, Schwann Catalogs from 1953 to 1982, a Phono-Log from 1963, and Various Other Sources
    Discography Of The Vanguard Label Vanguard Records was established in New York City in 1947. It was owned by Maynard and Seymour Solomon. The label released classical, folk, international, jazz, pop, spoken word, rhythm and blues and blues. Vanguard had a subsidiary called Bach Guild that released classical music. The Solomon brothers started the company with a loan of $10,000 from their family and rented a small office on 80 East 11th Street. The label was started just as the 33 1/3 RPM LP was just gaining popularity and Vanguard concentrated on LP’s. Vanguard commissioned recordings of five Bach Cantatas and those were the first releases on the label. As the long play market expanded Vanguard moved into other fields of music besides classical. The famed producer John Hammond (Discoverer of Robert Johnson, Bruce Springsteen Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan and Aretha Franklin) came in to supervise a jazz series called Jazz Showcase. The Solomon brothers’ politics was left leaning and many of the artists on Vanguard were black-listed by the House Un-American Activities Committive. Vanguard ignored the black-list of performers and had success with Cisco Houston, Paul Robeson and the Weavers. The Weavers were so successful that Vanguard moved more and more into the popular field. Folk music became the main focus of the label and the home of Joan Baez, Ian and Sylvia, Rooftop Singers, Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, Doc Watson, Country Joe and the Fish and many others. During the 1950’s and early 1960’s, a folk festival was held each year in Newport Rhode Island and Vanguard recorded and issued albums from the those events.

Helsingin yliopiston Opiskelijakirjasto www.opiskelijakirjasto.lib.helsinki.fi [email protected] Erkki Pihkala The Political Economy of Post-War Finland, 1945- 19521 ABSTRACT The paper is primarily concerned with the Finnish government's management of the Finnish economic situation after the Second World War. Overall, post-war policies were dominated by three main goals, first, how to deal with the war reparation pay- ments required under the harsh political terms of the 1944 Armistice Treaty; sec- ondly, to ensure the settlement of the Karelian refugees and demobilised veterans; and thirdly, the raising of production and the standard of living, including the easing of the rationing system. The focus is especially in analysing how this was financed externally and by the state economy without hyperinflation and considerable indebt- edness of the state. From the point of view of the government finances, the financing of the war was transformed to the financing of the war reparations, the compen- sations due to the war and the settlement of the homeless people. The paper has drawn on the findings of the Studies of the Economic Growth of Finland and other sources and can be seen as a sequel to a previous article on the Finnish war econo- 2 my between 1939–1945.
