  • A Historical Note on Joseph Smith's 1836 Visit to the East India Marine
    Baugh: Joseph Smith’s Visit to the East India Marine Society Museum 143 A Historical Note on Joseph Smith’s 1836 Visit to the East India Marine Society Museum in Salem, Massachusetts Alexander L. Baugh During the last week of July 1836, Joseph Smith, in company with Sidney Rigdon, Hyrum Smith, and Oliver Cowdery, left Kirtland, Ohio, to investigate the possibility of acquiring some kind of treasure reported to have been lo- cated in a house in Salem, Massachusetts. Mormon leaders in Kirtland were made aware of the treasure-cache by a Church member named Burgess whose report obviously convinced Joseph Smith to investigate personally the possi- bility of obtaining it. The Prophet’s historic “mission” to Salem has generated considerable attention over the years, primarily because of the rather unusual motive behind such an undertaking. Additionally, while in Salem, Joseph Smith received a revelation (D&C 111) that provided important instructions concerning a number of questions he had concerning what course of action he and his companions should take during their stay in the city. It is not the focus of this essay to examine in any great length the 1836 Salem mission. My purpose is to highlight one small incident associated with that episode—the visit by Joseph, Sidney, and Hyrum to the East India Marine Society museum.1 Only a brief synopsis of the Salem trip will be given here.

  • The East India Marine Society's
    Global Knowledge in the Early Republic The East India Marine Society’s “Curiosities” Museum Patricia Johnston On a cold January day in 1804, the Reverend William Bentley, pastor of the East Church, stood and watched a strange and exotic parade weaving through the streets of Salem, Massachusetts. A number of sea captains, who had just returned from Sumatra, Bombay, Calcutta, Canton, Manila, and other Asian ports, put on this public display to commemorate their recent business adventures. Bentley recorded in his diary, “This day is the Annual Meeting of the East India Marine Society. After business & before din- ner they moved in procession, . Each of the brethren bore some Indian curiosity & the palanquin was borne by the negroes dressed nearly in the Indian manner. A person dressed in Chinese habits & mask passed in front. The crowd of spectators was great.”1 The objects that the minister described demonstrate the global circula- tion of material culture in the Early Republic. Waiting in Asian harbors for trade opportunities, captains and crews swapped souvenirs that had literally circled the world. When they returned to their hometowns, they shared the objects they collected, both privately with acquaintances and publicly in mu- seums and parades that were widely covered in the newspapers. These global artifacts provide insights into the broad intellectual pursuits of the Early Republic, including natural history, ethnography, and aesthetics. The objects also illuminate early trade relations and cultural perceptions between Asia and the new United States. When displayed back in the United States, artifacts helped construct and reinforce social hierarchies in American seaports; they also expressed America’s arrival as a full participant in world commerce.

  • Heritage Education for School-Aged Children: an Analysis of Programs in Salem, Massachusetts
    HERITAGE EDUCATION FOR SCHOOL-AGED CHILDREN: AN ANALYSIS OF PROGRAMS IN SALEM, MASSACHUSETTS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Historic Preservation Planning by Emily Joyce Giacomarra January, 2015 © 2015 Emily Joyce Giacomarra ABSTRACT Heritage education uses local resources and the built environment to teach students concepts and skills in the arts, humanities, sciences, and math. This can be manifest in interdisciplinary programs that would seem ideal for teaching students about historic preservation and instilling children with a preservation ethic. Additionally, place-based educational programs have demonstrated proven success in academic achievement, student engagement, and creating a sense of stewardship and understanding of the environment. Examining heritage education methods and experiences in Salem, Massachusetts provides a lens to investigate how public schools and historic sites are using these potential opportunities. Both the Salem Maritime National Historic Site, owned by the National Park Service, and the Peabody Essex Museum are located in Salem and provide free curriculum-based heritage educational programming for Salem Public Schools. These programs provide strong institutional support and are widely appreciated by public school teachers. Historic New England, based in Boston, offers education programs throughout the region at its many locations, some of which are used by Salem schools. All three organizations have made offering well-researched programs based on their historic resources a priority because of the widespread benefits apparent to students and their organizational missions. Although teachers espouse the benefits of these programs, the initiative and leadership needed to increase, improve, and strengthen these programs from inside the public schools is not currently present.

  • Chief Operating Officer Salem, Massachusetts
    Chief Operating Officer Salem, Massachusetts THE OPPORTUNITY The Peabody Essex Museum (PEM) celebrates outstanding artistic and cultural creativity by collecting, stewarding, and interpreting objects of art and culture in ways that increase knowledge, enrich the spirit, engage the mind, and stimulate the senses. Through its exhibitions, programs, publications, media, and related activities, the museum strives to create experiences that transform people's lives by broadening their perspectives, attitudes, and knowledge of themselves and the wider world. As PEM enters the next era of its storied history following an unparalleled 25-year arc of development, the museum seeks an experienced and highly motivated leader to serve as its chief operating officer (COO). More than two centuries since its inception, PEM faces a distinct set of opportunities and challenges. In the wake of an international health crisis and systemic racial injustice that is experienced acutely by many and cannot be ignored, museum leaders have been called to action. This period will require expansive thinking and both global and local efforts as PEM examines its role as an inclusive, accessible, and thought- provoking leader in an evolving museum landscape and society. In July 2019, PEM appointed a new director and CEO for the first time in 25 years. A bold and visionary leader, Dr. Brian Kennedy has already laid the groundwork for an ambitious five-year strategic plan that will reevaluate the museum’s approach to and engagement of its audience, staff, physical and digital space, and financial resources. The COO will partner closely with Dr. Kennedy to realize the short- and long-term success of this vision.

  • Salem in 1800
    Salem in 1800: A Sample of the Range of Meanings Applied to One Place at One Time Margaret Warren Summer Institute 2004, IDS763 Dr. Schultz and Dr. Morrison How did people interpret Salem, Massachusetts, as it existed in the year 1800? Taking the themes of Salem: Place, Myth and Memory, and narrowing the subject even further to examine not only one particular place but also one particular time, it may be possible to gain insight into a broad range of perceptions. In seeking a “snapshot” of the year 1800 in the New England coastal town of Salem, this paper will take an interdisciplinary approach to sample the range of attitudes and meanings reflected in some of the surviving records. Largely because Salem was an important center in the early days of the American Republic, the city at that time has been fairly well documented, both by contemporaries and more recently. Two hundred years later, it is possible to compile a collection of documents, which includes journals, newspapers, maps, artwork, literature, statistics, architecture, furniture, and other clues to the story of how a wide range of people perceived the city during the year 1800. Beyond the primary sources of the selected year, there exists more recent documentation indicating the views of later people who tried to interpret for themselves how Salem “really was” in an earlier day. Why focus on 1800 and not some other year? Different years in the same era would be equally interesting – in 1799, the East India Marine Society is founded, changing how Salem is viewed; in 1802, Bowditch publishes The Practical Navigator and again enhances the meaning of Salem to the world! The choice of one year over another is arbitrary, as during that time any period chosen would yield more information than could fully be interpreted, even if the more routine or long-term aspects of life in Salem are left aside.

  • A NEW PEABODY MUSEUM for SALEM MASSACHUSETTS by Donald H
    A NEW PEABODY MUSEUM FOR SALEM MASSACHUSETTS by Donald H. Panushka SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARCHITECTURE ON AUGUST 29, 1951 Author Dean, School of Architecture and City Planning ABSTRACT A NEW PEABODY MUSEUM FOR SALEM MASSACHUSETTS by Donald H. Panushka Submitted for the degree of Master of Architecture in the Department of Architecture on August 29, 1951. The Peabody Museum of Salem, at present, is the oldest museum in existance in this country. It's collections are divided into three different categories: Maritime History, Ethnology, and Natural History of Essex County. Preliminary study for this thesis consisted of a study of the Museum's Historical background and an analysis of it's present site, buildings, and exhibition technique. As a result of this study and anal- ysis certain basic requirements were evolved in addition to the program proper. These were: to retain the Salem East India Marine Society Hall, integration with the Salem harbor and the moving to a new site. The last requirement of course necessitated moving the East India Hall, which proved to be economically sound. A site adjoining the National Maritime Historic site was chosen as the location of the new museum. This site is also close to the House of the Seven Gables and is in a thickly settled residential neighborhood. An attempt was made to recapture the maritime character which the museum possessed externally in the early nineteenth century and to coordinate the museum with the Maritime Historic site and the House of the Seven Gables, to form a unified whole.

Introduction The analysis and computer-coded inventory of the Peabody Museum of Salem represents the sixth study of its kind which the prehistoric survey team has completed. Previously, the archaeological collections of the Bronson Museum (Attleboro), Peabody Museum (Harvard University), the R. S. Peabody Foundation Museum (Andover) , the Benjamin Smith collection (Concord), and the Roy Athearn collection (Fall River) have been analyzed and entered into a computerized file. The primary goal of the survey, which for the past two and one half years has been sponsored by the Massachusetts Historical Commission, is to develop a standardized filing system and data base upon which informed decisions can be formulated concerning the management and preservation of the prehistoric cultural resources of the Commonwealth. The archaeological site files, computer inventories, and maps of the MHC represent the single most comprehensive facility in Massachusetts which can be used to assess the impacts of proposed construction projects on known or potential archaeo- logical resources.
