Davidson’s North Carolina militia, numbering between 600 and 800 men, set up camp on the far side of the river, hoping to thwart or at least slow Cornwallis’ crossing. The Patriots stayed back from the banks of the river in order to prevent Lieutenant Colonel Banastre Tartleton’s forces from fording the river at a different point and surprising the Patriots with a rear attack. At 1 a.m., Cornwallis began to move his troops toward the ford; by daybreak, they were crossing in a double-pronged formation–one prong for horses, the other for wagons. The noise of the rough crossing, during which the horses were forced to plunge in over their heads in the storm-swollen stream, woke the sleeping Patriot guard. The Patriots fired upon the Britons as they crossed and received heavy fire in return. Almost immediately upon his arrival at the river bank, General Davidson took a rifle ball to the heart and fell from his horse; his soaked corpse was found late that evening. Although Cornwallis’ troops took heavy casualties, the combat did little to slow their progress north toward Virginia.

It characterizes the basic elements of the UNESCO World Heritage idea as a cultural and social process, which engages in acts of remembering that work to create ways to understand, present and interpret the past within the present social frameworks. The thesis brings to the attention a range of viewpoints about the nature of heritage in general and the UNESCO World Heritage in specific that have emerged in the relatively new area of academic interdisciplinary heritage studies. For the purposes of exploring different aspects of the World Heritage phenomenon, following themes of heritage discourse have been developed: remembering and making public use of the past, the UNESCO approach and the ways of presenting and interpreting the past.

  • Thesis Full Final As Submitted To
    Nineteen Thirty-Four: Generic Hybridity and the Search for a Democratic Aesthetic by Adam Hammond A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Ph.D. Graduate Department of English University of Toronto © Copyright by Adam Hammond 2011 Abstract Nineteen Thirty-Four: Generic Hybridity and the Search for a Democratic Aesthetic Adam Hammond Ph.D., Graduate Department of English, University of Toronto, 2011 This dissertation poses a fundamental question: why does a concern about the value of literary writing emerge during a felt crisis in public speech, especially in times of war? My focus is 1934, the year that Hitler became Führer and Socialist Realism was formulated in the USSR. In this year, Mikhail Bakhtin and Erich Auerbach developed the foundations of their narrative theory, while Virginia Woolf, T. S. Eliot, and Wyndham Lewis embarked on new ventures in genre. Despite their differences, I argue, these writers all sought to challenge the linguistic basis of political power by developing new forms that engage readers in independent, active ways. Woolf, Eliot, and Lewis responded to totalitarianism with experiments in generic hybridity, believing that inter-generic dialogue could promote social dialogue and democratic modes of thought. My introduction analyses the political and aesthetic implications of German and Soviet propaganda in 1934. Chapter 1 establishes a theoretical frame through two works written in exile from these totalitarian regimes. Bakhtin’s “Discourse in the Novel” and Auerbach’s Mimesis both posit the centrality of genre to political freedom, but Bakhtin’s binary of monologic poetry and dialogic prose contrasts with Auerbach’s arguments for the political potential of mixed forms.

  • Prague 1918-1992
    Introduction Prague, Czechoslovakia (1918-1992) 1918–1992 For seventy-four years, these two words were like a married couple. Even these days, more than a quarter of a century after the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, we still find the odd foreign politician or journalist using the term for today’s Czech Republic. Czech citizens are bemused, frustrated, but resigned to it: it seems the word Czechoslovakia has indelibly left its mark in our collective memory. Prague is praised by visitors mainly for its uniquely preserved historical city centre, with an almost fairytale architectural ambience. The ancient beauty of the centre lets the visitor gloss over the dramatic and, sometimes, tragic moments of the city and country’s twentieth-century history. The 100th anniversary of the founding of Czechoslovakia in 2018 is thus an opportunity to reveal to our visitors those aspects of Prague history that have been overshadowed by its older and better-known mementos. Our ‘digest’, which you are currently holding, will draw your attention not only to buildings, but also works of art, monuments or other things of note that bring Prague’s Czechoslovak era to mind. Each year of the existence of Czechoslovakia is matched by one aspect, though not always with absolute chronological precision. Our aim and hope has been primarily to make our publication captivating, diverse and – we hope – rewarding for Prague’s visitors. Zdenek Rykr – Prague, print, 1937, cm, 95 x 61,5 inv. no. 79/99 © Regional Museum in Kolín 1 1 Czechoslovak history in a (very small) nutshell The Czechoslovak Republic was one of the States Communist regime ruled here continuously for that emerged from the ashes of the Austro-Hun- over forty years.
