  • A Brief History of Civc Space in Portland Oregon Since World War II Including Origins of Café Soceity
    A Brief History of Civc Space in Portland Oregon Since World War II Including Origins of Café Soceity In post World War II Portland, Portlanders were in love with their automobiles, while civic leaders and engineers planned freeways and expressways and vacant land in the central city was paved over for parking lots. Robert Moses came to Portland in 1943 and laid out a blueprint for the future of Portland, one hatch marked with freeways and thoroughfares slicing and dicing the city into areas separated by high speed cement rivers. Freeways completed during this period, such as Interstate 5, tore through minority and poor neighborhoods, such as Albina, with little collective resistance. It was a good time to be a road engineer, a poor time if you were African American. Portland was proud of its largest mall, Lloyd Center; for a short period of time the largest mall in the country. It was a sign of progress. Teenagers spent their time driving between drive-in restaurants and drive-in movies, or cruising downtown streets to be seen. Adults spent their time at home in front of that marvelous new invention, the television, or often in private clubs. Nearly a quarter of all civic associations were temples, lodges or clubs. During this period, civic leaders in Portland took pride in early urban renewal projects such as the South Auditorium project that required the demolition of 382 buildings and the relocation of 1,573 residents and 232 businesses. The project effectively terminated one of Portland's Jewish and Eastern European enclaves, and dispersed a sizable gypsy population to the outer reaches of southeast Portland.

  • OREGON Hello! My Name Is Nathan Cooper, I Work at the U.S. Mission
    OREGON Hello! My name is Nathan Cooper, I work at the U.S. Mission to International Organizations in Vienna, and I come from the beautiful state of Oregon. It’s a state with majestic natural resources and a fiercely independent character. Before I talk a bit more extensively about the state’s history and culture, let me quickly dispel three common misconceptions about my home state: First, many people often guess Oregon is “somewhere in the middle of the country.” Actually, Oregon is on the West Coast of the United States, just above California. Second, although you may have heard it called “Or-ee-GONE,” locals pronounce it “ORE-gun.” And last, contrary to what weather maps often depict, Oregon is not the wettest, rainiest place in America (that’s actually in Hawaii). Oregon is perhaps most famous for its dramatic and diverse landscape. Its rugged coastline contains sprawling beaches and a fascinating array of marine life, including noisy sea lions and vibrant tide pools. The Western half of the state is dominated by the volcanic Cascade mountain range. There you’ll find famous peaks like Mt. Hood, dense evergreen forests and rushing rivers. The western Willamette Valley is also home to the state’s two largest cities, Portland and Eugene, as well as a world-class winemaking region. And a vast high-elevation desert covers the eastern half of the state. Southern Oregon’s Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the US. It was formed by a collapsed volcano in the Cascades. These kinds of natural resources have attracted explorers and adventurers to Oregon since its earliest days.

  • Some Outstanding American Writers 2
    Student’s Worksheet SOME OUTSTANDING AMERICAN WRITERS 2 William Styron, Joseph Heller, Ken Kesey, Beat Generation Task One: Read the characteristics of the period. POST WWII PERIOD Some authors used their war experiences in their novels. Joseph Heller was a bombardier and used his experiences in his satirical novel Catch-22, a black comedy about military life. William Styron described the devastating impact of war in Sophie’s Choice, a novel about a Polish woman who, while imprisoned in a concentration camp was forced to make a cruel choice – which of her two children would survive and which would be killed. Social changes continued through the ’50s and ’60s. Family life was important; so many people had children and settled in the suburbs. Writers, however, looked at it a bit differently. The 1950s gave birth to a literary movement known as the “Beat Generation”. Authors rejected a traditional society and looked for new experiences through drugs, jazz music and Eastern mysticism. Jack Kerouac celebrated the lifestyle in his book On the Road, describing his road trip across America. No one can forget the experimental ’60s when drugs and rock and roll inspired a generation of youth. The Vietnam War and civil rights also played an important role in many people’s lives. Vietnam continued to dominate the 1970s as did the Cold War and an oil crisis. Ronald Reagan was the president during much of the ’80s. Many credit him with helping to end Communism in Europe. Ken Kesey gained fame with his first book, One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest, a story of a man who pretends to be mad in order to escape imprisonment and is shocked by the inhuman conditions in a mental hospital.

  • Jacob Wechta
    1 Jacob Wechta Ken Kesey, Jack Kerouac and a New American Religosity The Beat Generation of post WWII America is often associated with the counter- culture movement which led to the cultural developments of the 60s. In general Beats were typically characterized by a rejection of consumer culture and the regimentation and control of modern society. Ken Kesey is an author who is identified as being representative of this generation. One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest is a novel by Kesey which provides insight into the philosophical mindset which defined a generation. Kesey’s novel is representative of a line of thought within the Beat Generation, that the scientific and logical regimentation of capitalist society was creating a culture based on consumerism and was leading to corporate oppression. In the novel, the religious symbolism around the character R.P McMurphy was not uncommon within philosophical rhetoric commonly employed by intellectuals of the Beat Generation. Ken Kesey employs religious metaphors in an attempt to represent the freeing of a person from the grasps of consumerism and the social constraints imposed by society. Ken Kesey is not the only Beat author to employ religious symbolism in his attempts to represent transcendence of materialism and society. Jack Kerouac is another author who uses religious language and imagery to represent a philosophical rejection of consumerism and corporate oppression. In his semi-autobiographical novel, On the Road, Kerouac refers to his friend Dean as “having the energy of a new kind of American saint”(Kerouac 38) and again later while talking about a drive through South Carolina and Georgia he says, “All alone in the night I had my own thoughts and held the car to the white line in the holy road.” Later in the same paragraph, he refers to his journey as a “pilgrimage”(Kerouac 140).

  • Oregon and the Film Industry by Edwin Battistella Early Filmmaking in Oregon Motion Pictures Debuted in Oregon in 1894 When a Kinetoscope Arrived in Portland
    Oregon and the Film Industry By Edwin Battistella Early Filmmaking in Oregon Motion pictures debuted in Oregon in 1894 when a kinetoscope arrived in Portland. The innovative technology allowed boxing matches, vaudeville acts, and other popular entertainment to be shown in penny arcades and peepshows and, after 1906, on the nickelodeon. Soon early films were being projected in theaters, first at Cordray’s Opera House in Portland. By 1897, local documentary films were being made, including Fishing on the Willamette (1897), The Portland Fire Department (1901), Decoration Day Parade (1902), Panoramic View of the Columbia (1904), and Opening Ceremonies of the Lewis & Clark Exposition Grounds (1905). In the 1920s, theater owners and print media developed Oregon newsreel content—including Screenland News, the Webfoot Weekly, and Oregonian Screen Review—which lasted throughout that decade. One of the first feature films made in the state was The Fisherman’s Bride, a 1908 silent film produced by Col. William N. Selig’s Polyscope Company. Shot in Astoria at the mouth of the Columbia River, the film shows two men vying for a young woman’s hand. She chooses, but the unsuccessful suitor has his rival shanghaied. The Coast Guard rescues the groom-to-be and delivers him to the wedding. That same year Selig converted an old mansion in Los Angeles to a production studio—a movie factory—and kicked off the West Coast expansion of the film industry. From 1908 to 1929, almost fifty full-length silent films were shot in Oregon. The combination of period buildings and diverse outdoor locations seems to have been attractive to early filmmakers, who quickly found their way around the state.

  • Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters the Origins of the Psychedelic Movement Through the Lens of the Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test
    Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters The Origins of the Psychedelic Movement Through the Lens of The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test Eleonora De Crescenzo Coming Together or Coming Apart? Europe and the United States in the Sixties Intensive Seminar in Berlin, September 12-24, 2011 Professor Russel Duncan 14 October 2011 Eleonora De Crescenzo Ca' Foscari Venice University IP Berlin – John F.Kennedy Institut Freie Univertät Berlin Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters The Origins of the Psychedelic Movement Through the Lens of The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test In 1968 a phenomenon baffled the national imagination: the transformation of the "promising middle-class youth with all the advantages" into what was popularly known as "the hippie"1 The 1960s appear as one of the most culturally complex periods in American history. Nearly all social values were put into discussion, from the “separate but equal” policy to the family structure, from the woman’s role in society to US foreign policy in Vietnam. It would be naïve to argue that such change only came about thanks to political protest songs or the use of hallucinogenic drugs. Rather the process of growing awareness and dissatisfaction with the current society had been underway for a considerable amount of time, and was simply accelerated by an increasing generational divide, a symptom of the coming of age of the baby boomers. What remains undeniable is the influence of what started as youth protests and became the counterculture movement had on reshaping American values, an effect which continues to be felt today. The myriad of differing movements which made up 60s culture merged together in such a way that today it can be difficult to distinguish them.
