This report presents the results of the archaeological survey.

The Archaeology And History Of Alamo Plaza, Anne A. Fox, Feris A. Bass, Thomas R. Hester

Index of Texas Archaeology: Open Access Gray Literature from the Lone Star State

In the Spring of 1975, the Center for Archaeological Research was approached by the Parks and Recreation Department of the City of San Antonio regarding possible archaeological and historical research at Alamo Plaza. The proposed investigations were in connection with the city's plan to renovate the plaza, to coincide with the American Bicentennial. There were two major reasons for the Center's involvement: (1) the architects desired to learn, as a part of the renovation plans, the precise locations of the south wall of the original Alamo (San Antonio de Valero) compound; (2) in order to aid in the planning of …

Maya Lithic Studies: Papers From The 1976 Belize Filed Symposium, Thomas R. Hester, Norman Hammond

Index of Texas Archaeology: Open Access Gray Literature from the Lone Star State

As a result of intensified archaeological activity in northern Belize, and specifically the work of the joint British Museum-Cambridge University research project (directed by Norman Hammond), a variety of new data have been obtained on the prehistory of this region. Of the many sites that have been mapped, tested, or otherwise investigated in the past few years, one stands out as a major center of ancient Maya lithic technology. This is the site of Colha, located south of Orange Walk Town, along the highway between that town and Belize City. Personnel of the British Museum-Cambridge University Corozal Project began limited …

Review Of Women In Perspective: A Guide To Cross-Cultural Studies, Susan Lowes

Women's Studies Quarterly

WOMEN IN PERSPECTIVE: A GUIDE TO CROSS CULTURAL STUDIES, by Sue-Ellen Jacobs (University of Illinois Press, 1974: $3.45). It's hard to believe that an extended bibliography could be an underground classic, but in a sense this one was until this inexpensive paperback edition came out. Before that it circulated as a two-inch thick mimeographed 8½ x 11 tome. As a reference, this book is invaluable and should be useful to people in many fields—anthropology, sociology, political science, etc.

The Future Of Women's Studies, Joanne Mckim, Elsa Greene, Suzette A. Henke, Jane Lee Yare

from SANTA ANA COLLEGE

Santa Ana College (SAC), a two-year community college in southern California, is offering a unique program in women's studies. Beginning in the academic year 1975-1976, SAC is making a major in women's studies available. The program is designed to meet a comprehensive set of specific feminist objectives and goals. Accordingly, it is one of the first community colleges in the nation to adopt a commitment to feminism far more solid and long term than the typical patchwork "course-here-and-there" approach that most two-year colleges use in this subject area...

The Carter Family: Traditional Sources For Song, Margaret Bulger

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The recorded repertory of the original Carter Family was analyzed for traditional influences. Of the 119 songs examined, it was found that fifty-five, roughly one-fourth of their total repertory, have definite roots in one or more traditional sources. The Carters employed traditional texts within their repertory throughout their professional career. Three genres of song were analyzed: sentimental songs, religious songs, and ballads. Of these, sentimental songs was the largest category with 113 songs. These songs were found to be remarkably similar in thematic content and moral sensibilities to Victorian parlor songs (ca. 1860-1910). The religious songs were shown to be …

John G. Neihardt, Lucile F. Aly

Western Writers Series Digital Editions

In the literature celebrating the rugged spirit and tenacious optimism of the American West, John G. Neihardt, a Nebraska poet, raised one of the most vigorous voices. It sounds in his lyrics and rings through his epic masterwork, A Cycle of the West, in blended notes of wonder at the universe and deeper strains of human sorrow. His inspiration came from what he called the “glorious experience of living."

Review Of Nonsexist Education For Young Children: A Practical Guide, Selma Greenberg

Women's Studies Quarterly

NONSEXIST EDUCATION FOR YOUNG CHILDREN: A PRACTICAL GUIDE, edited by Barbara Sprung (New York: Citation Press, 1975, $3.25). I can sum up my response to this publication in four words: Buy it! Read it! Although primarily designed for teachers and administrators of early childhood education programs, it will interest the parents of young children, particularly those involved in cooperative or parent-directed early childhood programs. However, all persons interested in the reduction and elimination of sexism in the educational process will find this book well-written, well-documented, and sound in its views of past and present early childhood education. The commitment to …
