Forging the Masculine and Modern Nation: Race, Identity, and The FORGING THE MASCULINE AND MODERN NATION: RACE, IDENTITY, AND THE PUBLIC SPHERE IN CUBA AND MEXICO, 1890s-1930s By David C. LaFevor Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in History May, 2011 Nashville, Tennessee Approved Marshall C. Eakin Jane Landers Edward Wright-Rios Gary Gerstle William Luis For Tara, Chris, and Bill ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Stepping back from the process of research and writing this dissertation and attempting to remember the enormous personal and professional debts I have incurred along the way is both a difficult and nostalgic experience. None of this long endeavor would have been possible without the financial, intellectual and emotional support of my family, friends, and colleagues. I conducted funded research in four countries and most everywhere was met with patience, genuine curiosity, and challenges to my intentions and assumptions that, while often frustrating my expectations, have caused me to grow as a person and writer over the past seven years. For anyone I inadvertently leave out of these acknowledgments, I apologize; there have been so many institutions and individuals who have made this work possible. My time at Rhodes College and, in particular, my friendship with my undergraduate mentor, Michael LaRosa gave me the foundation for further engagement of Latin America. Mike LaRosa‘s humanistic approach to scholarship and teaching along with the personal interest he took in me as a student oriented me toward the study of history. He has been instrumental in obtaining funding from a number of sources and has been with me through this process as friend, critic, and source of constant encouragement. I would like to thank the Thomas J. Watson Foundation for the freedom and financial support to travel the world for a year upon completing my undergraduate degree. Over the course of that year when I tried to explain what I was doing I was often met with disbelief that such grants existed. At Vanderbilt, I have benefitted from the example of absolute intellectual integrity of my advisor, Marshall C. Eakin. He has given generously his time, patience, criticism and understanding. I know of no other individual who is a better combination of teacher and scholar. iii Jane Landers has also been of central importance throughout these years of research and writing. Her gentle yet unyielding criticism has guided me through many tough spots. Her caring and encouraging work with graduate students is, without exaggeration, legendary among those of us fortunate to work with her. Edward Wright-Rios, Celso Castillo, and Frank Robinson have been sources of intellectual guidance. They have read drafts and provided essential input into the crafting of this dissertation. At Vanderbilt and beyond, a range of scholars has lent me their time and intelligence. Among them are Michael Bess, Leon Helguera, Ronald Spores, Mike LaRosa, Matt Childs, Sherry Johnson, Louis Pérez, Jr., Jerry Davila, Helmut Smith, Katy Crawford, Richard Blackett, Enrique Encinosa, Bill Caferro, and Jim Lang. In particular, I would like to thank the members of my dissertation committee, Marshall Eakin, Jane Landers, Edward Wright- Rios, Gary Gerstle, and William Luis for their time, engagement, and insight. Jane Anderson, Heidi Welch and Brenda Hummel in the history department have helped to make this process as smooth as possible. Key financial support came from the Vanderbilt University History Department, the Fulbright Garcia-Robles Commission, the Leon Helguera Fellowship, the Center for Latin American and Iberian Studies, the Bishop Johnson Black Cultural Center, the Center for the Americas, and Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. I am also indebted to the staff of the Vanderbilt Interlibrary Loan Program, the Archivo Nacional de México, the Library of Congress, the Hemeroteca Nacional de México, the Biblioteca José Martí, the Archivo Nacional de Cuba, the Neetie Lee Benson Library, and the Instituto de Historia de Cuba. Pablo Gómez deserves much credit. His friendship and intellectual support have guided me in many difficult situations and his encouragement and criticism have been key to this dissertation. I count him as a brother. His family has also been exemplar of the kindness and iv acceptance that overwhelm me in the study of Latin America. Pablo has included me in several grants that have deepened my understanding of the region. His enormous intelligence paired with his humanistic orientation make him the best young scholar of Latin America I know. Another former graduate student, David Wheat, has had a similar impact on my work and his example has given me a benchmark of great writing and rigorous scholarship. My friends in Nashville and beyond who helped me in many ways through the course of this dissertation and to whom I give warm thanks are Timothy Maddux, Kendall Gregory, Timmie Sampson, Miriam Martin, Ty West, Courtney Campbell, Rick Moore, Avi Korine, Katrin Seidl Gómez, Lola LaFevor and Roscoe LaFevor. My extended family, Kathy Weisberg in particular, along with Anita Ewings, Shannon Stearns, Ryan Dzurko, and Tom, Sally, Tommy, and Gillian Carroll have given me their understanding and support in this long journey. Lagan Sebert and Sandra Sampayo allowed me to invade their home on research trips to Washington D.C.. Muchas gracias a todos. These individuals have made life as a graduate student more glamorous than it already is. They have helped make Tennessee, Pennsylvania, Mexico City, Austin, Texas, and Havana, Cuba into temporary homes. My family made this dissertation possible and I owe all the best moments in this process to them. Virginia and Bill Robertson and Louise and Clifford Cole, my grandparents, put in the hard work that has helped enable me to choose this profession. My brothers and fellow scholars, Matt and Adam, have given me constant friendship and understanding. Matt LaFevor offered valuable criticism and logistical support for my many research trips to Austin, Texas and Mexico City. My parents, Chris and Bill, and my wife, Tara, have provided me ceaseless support and emotional sustenance through this entire process. My father and mother first introduced me to Latin America as a child and I have learned through their experiences and the opportunities they v have given me throughout my life. If I can only approach their honesty, compassion, intelligence and their dedication to family in my own life, I will count myself successful. Tara has truly made me a more balanced person and without her this work would not have the personal meaning and importance that have carried it to conclusion. This dissertation is for Tara, Chris, and Bill. Nashville February, 2011. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS DEDICATION…………………………………………………………………………………….ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS………………………………..………………………………………iii CHAPTER I.

  • STATE CHAMPIONSHIP: Pilot Point Vs
    STATE CHAMPIONSHIP: Pilot Point vs. Kirbyville For the first time all year we allowed ourselves to celebrate a win for more than a few hours. We really got to enjoy the weekend and soak in that we had made it to the state championship game. Monday morning however; that was over. Making the state championship game was not our goal. Winning the state championship game was our goal. That was the mentality we showed up with Monday morning. I think that something that made our group special was our ability to put everything aside and just focus on football. We approached that week like we did on the first day of two-a-days. Business like. If an outsider were to come in our field house, there would have been no way to tell that we were playing for the state championship in 6 days. The focus was entirely on the opponent and what our jobs were to be Saturday afternoon. Kirbyville was the first team we were going to match-up against that had more big game experience than we did. Kirbyville had made the state championship in 2008 and lost to the Muleshoe Mules just like we did. A tough loss for them, but the experience they gained could potentially be an edge for them. Kirbyville entered the state championship with a record of 12-2 but their 2 losses weren’t just normal losses. Kirbyville did something similar to us and loaded their schedule with 3A teams to test themselves early. Their losses were both close, and came to West Orange Stark and Jasper, both of which were 3A powers.

  • The Musical Antiquary (1909-1913) Copyright © 2003 RIPM Consortium Ltd Répertoire International De La Presse Musicale (
    Introduction to: Richard Kitson, The Musical Antiquary (1909-1913) Copyright © 2003 RIPM Consortium Ltd Répertoire international de la presse musicale (www.ripm.org) The Musical Antiquary (1909-1913) The Musical Antiquary [MUA] was published in Oxford from October 1909 to July 1913 by Oxford University Press. The quarterly issues of each volume1-which contain between sixty and eighty pages in a single-column format-are paginated consecutively (each beginning with page one) and dated but not individually numbered. The price of each issue was two shillings and sixpence. Publication ceased without explanation. The Musical Antiquary was among the first British music journals to deal with musicological subjects, and contained articles of historical inquiry dealing mainly with "ancient music": the Elizabethan, the British Commonwealth and Restoration periods, and eighteenth-century musicians and musical life. In addition, several articles deal with early manifestations of Christian chant, the techniques of Renaissance polyphony and topics dealing with Anglican and Roman Catholic liturgical practices. The journal's founder and editor was Godfrey Edward Pellew Arkwright (1864-1944), a tireless scholar deeply involved with the study of music history. Educated at the University of Oxford, Arkwright prepared the catalogue of music in the Library of Christ Church, Oxford, and edited several important publications: English vocal music in twenty-five volumes of the Old English Edition, and Purcell's Birthday Odes for Queen Mary and his Odes to St. Cecilia, both published by the Purcell Society.2 The main contribiitors to The Musical Antiquary are well-known scholars in the field of British musicology, all born in about the middle of the nineteenth century and all active through the first quarter of the twentieth.

An Agenda that expresses the hope of the world’s poor from a Latin American perspective. A manual for creating a different kind of globalization. A collection of the historical memories of militancy.

We put the accent on vision, on attitude, on awareness, on education... Obviously, we aim at practice. However our “charisma” is to provoke the transformations of awareness necessary so that radically new practices might arise from another systemic vision and not just reforms or patches. We want to ally ourselves with all those who search for that transformation of conscience. We are at its service. This Agenda wants to be, as always and even more than at other times, a box of materials and tools for popular education. latinoamericana.org/2016/info is the web site we have set up on the network in order to offer and circulate more material, ideas and pedagogical resources than can economically be accommo- dated in this paper version.
