Bush, Wisconsin State University ONhkosh Glenn Leggett, University of Washington Virginia M. Reid, Oakland Public Schools, Oakland, California Enid M. Olson, Director of Publications iv FOREWORD The Committee on a Bibliography of English Journal Articleswas constituted by the Executive Committee of the National Council of Teachers ofEnglish shortly after the Golden Anniversary meeting in Chicago in November 1960.Council officers felt the time opportune for the establishment ofa committee whose published work would make easily accessible the riches of technical information and thestimulus to effective and imaginative teaching scattered in the various volur-es ofthe magazine. In words from the minutes which launched the project, "a pub'-.A work, annotated and cross indexed as necessary" would "provide substantial aid"for teachers and students gen- erally, and mo-t specifically for teachers of English at the secondaryschool level, toward whose professional interest and advancement the English Journalis primarily directed. The basic and specific charge to the newly establishedcommittee was the prepara- tion of an annotated list of articles that had appeared in the English Journalfor some two decades past. The listing was to be in terms of author, title, and subject,and it was to include articles under specified column headings. Consultation and correspond- ence by the Executive Secretary during winter and spring 1961 resulted in appointing a committee chairman, an associate chairman, and a committee membership frommen and women in English teaching and supervisory roles who indicatedwillingness to engage in the project and who were in position to deploy time andenergy toward the goal of making the Journal's still current professional informationavailable in the form of a published index. As is obvious from the listing in successive directories of NCTE Officers,Affiliates, and Committees, 1961-1964, and in final form in thispublication, the committee mem- bership was derived from widely scattered parts of the UnitedStates and represents personnel of diverse educational background and professionalengagement. The dedica- tion to the interest of informed teaching of English implied byacceptance of member- ship on the committee was coordinated through correspondence,through "opinion poll," and through NCTE supported meetings at the Philadelphia, Miami, andSan Francisco conventions. At these meetings, members of the committee in attendancewere able to discuss the project in its yearly growth and to provide counseland decisions for carry- ing the work to completion. Explanation of a few controlling principles and methods ofprocedure which governed the making of the Index may be of service to itsusers. The criterion for inclusion was that the item conform in someway to the term "article." On this basis announcements. newsletters, and ephemeral comment; precisor cullings from other publications; and outmoded reviews or lists of dated teaching materialswere generally excluded, as were timebound editorials and the often piquant and humorousverses scattered throughout the twenty volumes. In a few instances these judgmentsomit credit for valuable work by distinguished members of NCTE, but the inclusion ofbrief and ephemeral materials of oftchanging variety would have swelled extensivelya compilation designed for use primarily as a tool for nonephemeral professional study andread :ng. In the listing of items, a distinction is drawn between lead articles and those derived from a Journal headed column. The content of columnsgenerally falls into two divisions: articles devoted primarily to suggestions for improvedtechnique in specific teaching situations and those that by thevery nature of the subject demand continua- tion in successive numbers of the Journal.It should be observed also that in a few instances columns dealing with the same general topic have changednames. In the indexing, lead article and column articlewere distinguished by adding abbreviations to the bibliographic information; in this publicationthe distinction is applicable to the following columns: Round Table (RT), whichlater became Shop Talk (ST); Current English Forum (CEF) and its later simplifieddesignation, Current English (CE); Public Arts (PA); Modern Poetry in the Classroom(MPC); and Riposte (Rip). For columns and symposia, the aim has beento give credit to the individual authorif identifiablein preference to the general editor, thecommittee chairman, or the committee as a fully named unit. v The annotated topical approach was chosen as the basic text for the Index because this arrangement presumably will function to greatest advantage as tool for research or as guide for professional reading. For reasons of space and economy of production, author credit was abbreviated to alphabetical listing with numerical reference to the subject division (s) where the full bibliographical facts and the explanation of the article's content are located. For the same reasons, the separate title listing originally contemplated was abandoned. Nonsentence compression was also an original ideal of the indexers but in practice was not always feasible, especially not for major articles. The bibliographical form chosen for the listings is that presumably most familiar to teachers and students from college and graduate work assignments. The gathered subject headings in alphabetic order in the last pages of the Index, of course, may be termed an index to an index. From a committee member's first draft to the editor's final text, serious effort was made to word subject annotations so that they would suggest the content of the article with accuracy, impressionistic completeness, and savor for full reading pursuit. To assure subject completeness, moreover, annotations are repeatedwith or without change in emphasiswhen pertinent under one or more headings as cross reference.Similar efforts were expended to secure logical and appropriate placement of the annotated references according to topic. The numbered topical headings of the basic text of the Index were derived from the occasional topical indexes in the Journal itself, from enmination of

  • 1 Missing in Action: Repression, Return, and the Post-War Uncanny 1
    Notes 1 Missing in Action: Repression, Return, and the Post-War Uncanny 1. The First World War is commonly pointed to as a pivotal event that prompted writers to search for new literary forms and modes of expres- sion. Hazel McNair Hutchinson suggests that wartime themes of “anxiety, futility, fragmentation and introspection would extend into post-war writing and would become hallmarks of American Modernist literature.” The first world conflict produced novels such as John Dos Passos’ One Man’s Initiation: 1917 (1920) based on his experi- ences as a volunteer ambulance driver and Three Solders (1921), which investigates the war’s psychological impact. Ernest Hemingway’s A Farewell to Arms (1929) includes sparse yet graphic depictions of bat- tle, and his first novel Fiesta: The Sun Also Rises (1927) chronicles the aftermath of the war for those who were physically or emotion- ally wounded. Many major American authors of the 1920s and 1930s were personally impacted by the war, and it continually surfaces in the works of writers such as Ezra Pound, Gertrude Stein, e. e. cum- mings, and F. Scott Fitzgerald. For a brief discussion of American literature influenced by the First World War, see Hazel McNair Hutchison, “American Literature of World War One,” The Literary Encyclopedia (July 2, 2007), http:// www.litencyc.com/ php/ stop- ics.php?rec=true&UID=1735. 2.

Montgomery Stn Starkville, Mississippi TO MI MOTHER AND TO THE MMQRI OF MI FATHER PREFACE The challenge to make this study came after learning my great grandfather, John Rabb Ashford, came to Mississippi, from Eairfield County, South Carolina and was buried at Old Concord Cemetery in Choctaw County. In the process of uncovering facts about the Ashfords coming to Mississippi, other interesting facts revealed themselves. I learned that John Rabb Ashford was the son of James Ashford, James had a bro ther, George5 they married sisters, and both had descendants in Missis sippi. This publication deals with some of the ancestors and descen dants of James and George Ashford, Jr. of Fairfield County, South Carolina• It would not have been possible to complete this study to this point, without the assistance and cooperation of friends and members of the family. I wish to express by appreciation for each and every one's help. A list of all those who furnished information would be too long to make individual mention, but would like to give special recognition to Miss Iris Ashford, my sister, for her encouragement and much faithful research; to Mary Lou (Ashford) Castles (Mrs. R. A.), of Rion, South Carolina, for collecting information on more than forty families in the George Ashford, Jr. line; to Miss Jessie Mae Ashford, of Malvem, Arkansas and Washington, D.
