  • Generation Kill and the New Screen Combat Magdalena Yüksel and Colleen Kennedy-Karpat
    15 Generation Kill and the New Screen Combat Magdalena Yüksel and Colleen Kennedy-Karpat No one could accuse the American cultural industries of giving the Iraq War the silent treatment. Between the 24-hour news cycle and fictionalized enter- tainment, war narratives have played a significant and evolving role in the media landscape since the declaration of war in 2003. Iraq War films, on the whole, have failed to impress audiences and critics, with notable exceptions like Kathryn Bigelow’s The Hurt Locker (2008), which won the Oscar for Best Picture, and her follow-up Zero Dark Thirty (2012), which tripled its budget in worldwide box office intake.1 Television, however, has fared better as a vehicle for profitable, war-inspired entertainment, which is perhaps best exemplified by the nine seasons of Fox’s 24 (2001–2010). Situated squarely between these two formats lies the television miniseries, combining seriality with the closed narrative of feature filmmaking to bring to the small screen— and, probably more significantly, to the DVD market—a time-limited story that cultivates a broader and deeper narrative development than a single film, yet maintains a coherent thematic and creative agenda. As a pioneer in both the miniseries format and the more nebulous category of quality television, HBO has taken fresh approaches to representing combat as it unfolds in the twenty-first century.2 These innovations build on yet also depart from the precedent set by Band of Brothers (2001), Steven Spielberg’s WWII project that established HBO’s interest in war-themed miniseries, and the subsequent companion project, The Pacific (2010).3 Stylistically, both Band of Brothers and The Pacific depict WWII combat in ways that recall Spielberg’s blockbuster Saving Private Ryan (1998).

In fact, such a policy would be radical in any country today: the federal government’s massive confiscation of private property — some 400,000 acres — formerly owned by Confederate land owners, and its methodical redistribution to former black slaves. What most of us haven’t heard is that the idea really was generated by black leaders themselves. It is difficult to stress adequately how revolutionary this idea was: As the historian Eric Foner puts it in his book, Reconstruction: America’s Unfinished Revolution, 1863- 1877, “Here in coastal South Carolina and Georgia, the prospect beckoned of a transformation of Southern society more radical even than the end of slavery.” Try

A Constitutional Right of Religious Exemption: An Historical Perspective Philip A. Hamburger* Did late eighteenth-century Americans understand the Free Exer- cise Clause of the United States Constitution to provide individuals a right of exemption from civil laws to which they had religious ob- jections? Claims of exemption based on the Free Exercise Clause have prompted some of the Supreme Court's most prominent free exercise decisions, and therefore this historical inquiry about a right of exemption may have implications for our constitutional jurispru- dence.' Even if the Court does not adopt late eighteenth-century ideas about the free exercise of religion, we may, nonetheless, find that the history of such ideas can contribute to our contemporary analysis.

  • 'Enthusiasm for Liberty': the Great Awakening As the Key to the Revolution
    'Enthusiasm for Liberty': The Great Awakening as the Key to the Revolution WILLIAM G. McLOUGHLIN J.HERE ARE VERY Severe challenges facing the historian who tries to deal with the question of religion and the Revo- lution. In the first place most contemporary accounts state emphatically that during the Revolution the people were so busy fighting for independence and survival that the churches were almost deserted. In the second place the literature ofthe Revolutionary Era is concerned almost entirely with ques- tions of politics. In the third place most of the prominent leaders of the new nation, the so-called Founding Fathers, were not very religious men, at least in the sense of being devout or orthodox believers in Christianity. One can, of course, talk about the importance of freedom of conscience as one ofthe inalienable rights of man or about the separation of church and state, but these did not loom very large among the causes of the Revolution since neither king nor Parliament took much interest in them. It would be hard work to prove that the remote possibility of sending a bishop to head the Anglican churches in America was a central issue in the decision of the colonists to seek independence. No one doubts that the Americans were basically a very religious people. The First Great Awakening in the 1730s This paper was read May 3, 1977, at the Worcester Art Museum as one of a series of public lectures held in conjunction with the American Antiquarian Society exhibition 'Wellsprings of a Nation: America before 1801.' The exhibition and lectures were made possible by a grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities.

The disciple will understand the characteristics of a disciple according to the scriptures. 3. The disciple will see the importance of producing reproducers in the process of discipleship. 4. The disciple will be challenged by these two readings to obey Christ’s call to be active throughout your life in personalized discipling. Scripture Memory Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.
