Sir John Orde And The Trafalgar Campaign—A Failure Of Information Sharing, J. Ross Dancy, Evan Wilson Mar 2020

Sir John Orde And The Trafalgar Campaign—A Failure Of Information Sharing, J. Ross Dancy, Evan Wilson

Naval War College Review

When France’s Toulon Fleet appeared off Cádiz in April 1805, Orde possessed more information about the whereabouts and strength of the Combined Fleet than any other British flag officer, placing immense responsibility on him to share that information widely and quickly. But in this he failed, costing Lord Nelson a good chance of bringing the campaign to a halt six months before Trafalgar, and providing an example of a failure to achieve mission command.


“Improbable Allies”—The North Korean Downing Of A U.S. Navy Ec-121 And U.S.-Soviet Cooperation During The Cold War, Bill Streifer, Irek Sabitov Mar 2020

“Improbable Allies”—The North Korean Downing Of A U.S. Navy Ec-121 And U.S.-Soviet Cooperation During The Cold War, Bill Streifer, Irek Sabitov

Naval War College Review

In April 1969, North Korea shot down a USN reconnaissance plane. Soviet surface ships were first on the scene and contributed to a joint U.S.-USSR search-and-rescue/recovery operation—a rare example of cooperation between traditional Cold War adversaries.


Operation Earnest Will—The U.S. Foreign Policy Behind U.S. Naval Operations In The Persian Gulf 1987–89; A Curious Case, Andrew R. Marvin Mar 2020

Operation Earnest Will—The U.S. Foreign Policy Behind U.S. Naval Operations In The Persian Gulf 1987–89; A Curious Case, Andrew R. Marvin

Naval War College Review

The Navy’s 1987 EARNEST WILL deployment to the Persian Gulf was anomalous because of its size, its ferocity, and its adoption in the face of congressional opposition. What strategic forces drove EARNEST WILL, and what practical realities drive states’ foreign policies?


Leadership And Decision—From Accountability To Punishment, Michael Junge Mar 2020

Leadership And Decision—From Accountability To Punishment, Michael Junge

Naval War College Review

As the Navy reenters an era of great-power competition, we should evaluate our culture of command and relearn precise language before we jettison superb commanding officers for ahistorical reasons.

Museum Kura Hulanda: Representations Of Transatlantic Slavery And African And Dutch Heritage In Post-Colonial Curaçao, April Min Mar 2020

Museum Kura Hulanda: Representations Of Transatlantic Slavery And African And Dutch Heritage In Post-Colonial Curaçao, April Min

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Presenting a history of slavery that resonates with multiple audiences and serves necessary educational goals, while still creating sufficient appeal to attract visitors and remain sustainable is an enormous task faced by museums in post-colonial spaces across the world. The Museum Kura Hulanda in Curaçao finds itself in an unenviable position of maintaining a vast collection compiled by its founder, navigating the complexities of the 400-year legacy of Dutch involvement in the transatlantic slave trade, and sustaining its position within the local business and tourist economy of Curaçao.

Focusing on the exhibitions at the Museum Kura Hulanda as a site …

Forgetting The Mine Wars: Erasing Insurrection In West Virginia History, Samuel Heywood Mar 2020

Forgetting The Mine Wars: Erasing Insurrection In West Virginia History, Samuel Heywood

Undergraduate Honors Theses

This thesis examines the concerted effort in the West Virginia school system to forget a massive labor movement in the early 20th century. Business leaders and government leaders turned to the classroom to try and control the memory of future generations to ensure a positive perception of the coal industry and avoid any more violent confrontations. After a brief summary of the Mine Wars for context, this thesis uses textbooks to analyze how the authors omitted the conflict and instead used patriotic propaganda to create loyal citizens. Although the Mine Wars have since been included in state history textbooks, …


Juxtaposing Primary- And Intermediate-Elementary Trade Books’ Historical Representation Of Amelia Earhart, Rachael A. Burkhardt Mar 2020

Juxtaposing Primary- And Intermediate-Elementary Trade Books’ Historical Representation Of Amelia Earhart, Rachael A. Burkhardt

The Councilor: A National Journal of the Social Studies

Amelia Earhart can be used in the classroom not only to interest students but can also be used to cover Common Core State Standards (CCSS), National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) framework, and Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS). When teaching Amelia Earhart, textbooks, trade books, and primary sources can be used, however one must be careful with the misrepresentations each resource can portray. To look at what is misrepresented, omitted, and included within primary and intermediate grade level trade books, 32 books were scrutinized. The trade books being analyzed were found to have some historically representative and misrepresentative elements …


Appalachian Sermons In Marshall's Special Collections: Holdings And Research Possibilities, Robert Ellison Mar 2020

Appalachian Sermons In Marshall's Special Collections: Holdings And Research Possibilities, Robert Ellison

English Faculty Research

This presentation focuses on a collection of Appalachian sermons housed in the Special Collections Department at Marshall University. As the subtitle suggests, it has two main parts. The “Holdings” section provides a brief survey of these materials (the ministers represented in the collection, their denominations, when they served and where, and so on) and shows the work that has been done thus far to place the copyright-free materials online.

The “Research Possibilities” section gives an overview of the theories, topics, and approaches used in the field of sermon studies. I argue--as my colleagues and I have done in other projects--that …

Rahul Sankrityayan, Tsetan Phuntsog And Tibetan Textbooks For Ladakh In 1933, John Bray, Martijn Van Beek, Tsering Gonkatsang, Phuntsok Wangchuk

HIMALAYA, the Journal of the Association for Nepal and Himalayan Studies

In 1933 the Indian scholar and social activist Rahul Sankrityayan (1893-1963) compiled a set of four Tibetan-language readers and a grammar for use in Ladakhi schools, together with his Ladakhi colleague Tsetan Phuntsog. The readers contain a mix of material from Western, Indian, Ladakhi and Tibetan sources. This includes simple essays about ‘air’ and ‘water’, selections from Aesop’s fables, Indian folk stories, biographies of famous people in Ladakhi and Tibetan history, poems by Ladakhi authors, and extracts from the Treasury of Elegant Sayings by Sakya Pandita Kunga Gyaltsen (1182-1251). This essay begins with a review of earlier Tibetan-language schoolbooks published …
