The North Pole controversy of 1909 in which two American Arctic explorers both claimed to have reached the North Pole was a culmination of the polar exploration era. However, one aspect of the polar expeditions that is relatively unknown is the treatment of the native Inuit peoples of the Arctic by the polar explorers.

  • I AMERICAN ARCTIC EXPLORATION a SOCIAL and CULTURAL
    AMERICAN ARCTIC EXPLORATION A SOCIAL AND CULTURAL HISTORY, 1890-1930 A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY by Robert D. Lukens May 2011 Examining Committee Members: Kenneth L. Kusmer, Advisory Chair, Department of History Andrew C. Isenberg, Department of History Susan E. Klepp, Department of History Frederick E. Nelson, External Member, University of Delaware, Department of Geography i ABSTRACT The Arctic has long held power over the American imagination as a place of otherworldly beauty, life-threatening elements, and dangerous wildlife. Nearing the end of the nineteenth century, in a time of great anxiety about the direction of American society, the region took on new significance. As a new frontier, the Arctic was a place where explorers could establish a vigorous and aggressive type of American manhood through their exploits. Publications, lectures, newspaper accounts, and other media brought the stories of these explorers to those at home. Through such accounts, the stories of brave explorers counteracted the perceived softening of men and American society in general. Women played a crucial role in this process. They challenged the perceived male-only nature of the Arctic while their depiction in publications and the press contradictorily claimed that they retained their femininity. American perceptions of the Arctic were inextricably intertwined with their perceptions of the Inuit, the indigenous peoples that called the region home. In the late-nineteenth-century, Americans generally admired the Inuit as an exceptional race that embodied characteristics that were accepted in American Society as representing ideal manhood.

Introduction: “Learn a Language, Learn an Illness” The period of first contacts between Western explorers and Inuit, and the period of gradual influence of Western culture on Inuit culture was marked by clashes of the two cultures. While most Western explorers of the eighteenth to early twentieth centuries considered traditional Inuit culture savage, for Inuit, it was a complex of beliefs and practices adapted to extreme polar conditions. Pibloktoq – by many scholars considered culture-bound syndrome – a mental condition unique to Inuit culture – is the result of these clashes – or more specifically – the result of assessing Inuit behavior through Western lenses.

    My Attainment Of The Pole By Frederick A. Cook My Attainment Of The Pole I. THE POLAR FIGHT On April 21, 1908, I reached a spot on the silver-shining desert of boreal ice whereat a wild wave of joy filled my heart. I can remember the scene distinctly—it will remain one of those comparatively few mental pictures which are photographed with a terribly vivid distinctness of detail, because of their emotional effect, during everyone's existence, and which reassert themselves in the brain like lightning flashes in stresses of intense emotion, in dreams, in the delirium of sickness, and possibly in the hour of death. I can see the sun lying low above the horizon, which glittered here and there in shafts of light like the tip of a long, circular, silver blade. The globe of fire, veiled occasionally by purplish, silver-shot mists, was tinged with a faint, burning lilac. Through opening cracks in the constantly moving field of ice, cold strata of air rose, deflecting the sun's rays in every direction, and changing the vision of distant ice irregularities with a deceptive perspective, as an oar blade seen in the depth of still water. Huge phantom-shapes took form about me; they were nebulous, their color purplish. About the horizon moved what my imagination pictured as the ghosts of dead armies—strange, gigantic, wraith-like shapes whose heads rose above the horizon as the heads of a giant army appearing over the summits of a far-away mountain. They moved forward, retreated, diminished in size, and titanically reappeared again.

The site, marketed as a museum of slavery, consists of exhibitions, memorials, and both original and reconstructed buildings. I argue that the Whitney Plantation Museum engages in three distinct projects on its site—that of a museum of slavery, a memorial to slavery, and as a plantation museum. Using the museum’s website, tours, exhibitions, and marketing material, I explore these three projects, commenting on the efficacy of each in regard to the Whitney’s larger goals to educate the public on the history of slavery. I argue that the Whitney’s effectiveness as a site of slavery and public history lies in its role as a plantation museum, engaging in a very different project to other plantation sites located in the same area.

  • Part 1 the Arctic Sublime
    DECLARATION I declare that this thesis entitled The Anglo-American Press and the Sensationalization of the Arctic 1855-1910 is my own original work and that all other works referred to in this thesis have been acknowledged. This thesis is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification to any other university. I further declare that this thesis does not exceed the prescribed length allowed me by the Faculty of Earth Sciences and Geography. I want you gentlemen to remember that I am the only person you need to please. If I want The Herald to be turned upside down, it must be turned upside down. And whatever I say will be news, will indeed be news. If I want black beetles to be the news of the day, then black beetles will be the news of the day. That is what The Herald will consider important, and it is what our readers will consider important. James Gordon Bennett Jr. SUMMARY By investigating the relationship between the Anglo-American press and Arctic exploration, the study seeks both to re-examine some common theories about newspaper sensationalism and to understand the reasons for the wide-spread interest in the Arctic and its exploration in the United States and England. The study makes a systematic examination of the role of the press in Arctic exploration, and finds that newspapers and their proprietors were much more influential in increasing knowledge about and interest in the far north than has traditionally been acknowledged. Not only did newspapers—most notably The New York Herald of James Gordon Bennett—sponsor numerous expeditions, the press also encouraged exploration by paying large sums for exclusive accounts from the explorers.
