US Historians of Latin America and the Colonial Question
UC Santa Barbara Journal of Transnational American Studies Title Imperial Revisionism: US Historians of Latin America and the Spanish Colonial Empire (ca. 1915–1945) Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/30m769ph Journal Journal of Transnational American Studies, 5(1) Author Salvatore, Ricardo D. Publication Date 2013 DOI 10.5070/T851011618 Supplemental Material https://escholarship.org/uc/item/30m769ph#supplemental Peer reviewed eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Imperial Revisionism: US Historians of Latin America and the Spanish Colonial Empire (ca. 1915–1945) RICARDO D. SALVATORE Since its inception, the discipline of Hispanic American history has been overshadowed by a dominant curiosity about the Spanish colonial empire and its legacy in Latin America. Carrying a tradition established in the mid-nineteenth century, the pioneers of the field (Bernard Moses and Edward G. Bourne) wrote mainly about the experience of Spanish colonialism in the Americas. The generation that followed continued with this line of inquiry, generating an increasing number of publications about the colonial period.1 The duration, organization, and principal institutions of the Spanish empire have drawn the attention of many historians who did their archival work during the early twentieth century and joined history departments of major US universities after the outbreak of World War I. The histories they wrote contributed to consolidating the field of Hispanic American history in the United States, producing important findings in a variety of themes related to the Spanish empire. It is my contention that this historiography was greatly influenced by the need to understand the role of the United States’ policies in the hemisphere. -
John R. Mcneill University Professor Georgetown University President of the American Historical Association, 2019 Presidential Address
2020-President_Address.indd All Pages 14/10/19 7:31 PM John R. McNeill University Professor Georgetown University President of the American Historical Association, 2019 Presidential Address New York Hilton Trianon Ballroom New York, New York Saturday, January 4, 2020 5:30 PM John R. McNeill By George Vrtis, Carleton College In fall 1998, John McNeill addressed the Georgetown University community to help launch the university’s new capital campaign. Sharing the stage with Georgetown’s president and other dignitaries, McNeill focused his comments on the two “great things” he saw going on at Georgetown and why each merited further support. One of those focal points was teaching and the need to constantly find creative new ways to inspire, share knowledge, and build intellectual community among faculty and students. The other one centered on scholarship. Here McNeill suggested that scholars needed to move beyond the traditional confines of academic disciplines laid down in the 19th century, and engage in more innovative, imaginative, and interdisciplinary research. Our intellectual paths have been very fruitful for a long time now, McNeill observed, but diminishing returns have set in, information and methodologies have exploded, and new roads beckon. To help make his point, McNeill likened contemporary scholars to a drunk person searching for his lost keys under a lamppost, “not because he lost them there but because that is where the light is.” The drunk-swirling-around-the-lamppost metaphor was classic McNeill. Throughout his academic life, McNeill has always conveyed his ideas in clear, accessible, often memorable, and occasionally humorous language. And he has always ventured into the darkness, searchlight in hand, helping us to see and understand the world and ourselves ever more clearly with each passing year. -

Frederick Jackson Turner and the Enduring Problem of American Historiography • KEVIN JON FERNLUND The Problem: Europe and the History of America n 1892 the United States celebrated the four hundredth anniversary of Chris- topher Columbus’s discovery of lands west of Europe, on the far side of the IAtlantic Ocean. To mark this historic occasion, and to showcase the nation’s tremendous industrial progress, the city of Chicago hosted the World’s Colum- bian Exposition. Chicago won the honor after competing with other major U.S. cities, including New York. Owing to delays, the opening of the exposition was pushed back to 1893. This grand event was ideally timed to provide the coun- try’s nascent historical profession with the opportunity to demonstrate its value to the world. The American Historical Association (AHA) was founded only a few years prior in 1884, and incorporated by the U.S. -

The Newsletter Department of History
THE NEWSLETTER DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY Number 56 Chapel Hill, North Carolina Autumn 2007 GREETINGS FROM THE CHAIR The intellectual community of a dynamic History Department might be compared to one of those famous intellectual salons in eighteenth-century Paris: There is a core of regular members who are present throughout the year, there are interesting visitors who stop by to share a manuscript or a conversation, there are travelers who stay in contact from distant places (or archives) by correspondence, there are opportunities to share food or drink, and there are frequent intergenerational exchanges of ideas, experiences, and transnational perspectives. Although I would not want to compare the chair’s role in a modern University department to the work of influential salonnières who hosted Parisian salons, I can say that the chair of the UNC History Department enjoys the salonnière’s pleasure of participating in all kinds of conversations or activities and learning from the many talented colleagues who create a diverse and constantly evolving academic community. This past year has been filled with the various scholarly, pedagogical, and social events that make the UNC History Department such an engaging place to work and study. As usual, we taught well over 8,000 students in our classes and celebrated a memorable Commencement Day recognition for our graduating majors. We also hosted distinguished visiting speakers, continued our program of faculty and graduate student research colloquia, and published a wide range of new scholarship-- including ten books and more than 75 articles, book chapters, and essays. Our faculty also published nine edited books, presented scores of papers at scholarly conferences, and served on the editorial boards of more than twenty scholarly journals.
