Mixed-Bloods, Mestizas, And Pintos: Race, Gender, And Claims To Whiteness In Helen Hunt Jackson's Ramona And María Amparo Ruiz De Burton's Who Would Have Thought It?, Margaret D. Jacobs

Department of History: Faculty Publications

A number of literary scholars have found much to compare between Jackson's Ramona and Ruiz de Burton's other novel, The Squatter and the Don. Both take place in nineteenth-century California and provide contrasting views of Californio and indigenous cultures. A comparison of Who Would Have Thought It? and Ramona, however, yields further crucial insights into how Ruiz de Burton critiqued Easterners' views of the West. Rather than situating this novel in the West, Ruiz de Burton locates it primarily in New England. This allows Ruiz de Burton to turn the tables on all the "Yankees" who wrote about the West. …

Review Of Diana O'Hara, Courtship And Constraint: Rethinking The Making Of Marriage In Tudor England, And Retha Warnicke, The Marrying Of Anne Of Cleves: Royal Protocol In Tudor England, Carole Levin

Department of History: Faculty Publications

There have been a number of books and articles in the last decade that focus on family and marriage, including courtship, in early modern England or on the negotiations of specific marriages. Many of these studies were written in response to the pioneering but often controversial work by Lawrence Stone. Literary scholars, such as Catherine Bates and Ilona Bell, and historians such as Barbara Harris, Sara Mendelson and Patricia Crawford, Eric Carlson, Alan MacFarlane, and Ralph Houlbrooke have brought a variety of view points and much more subtlety to the whole discussion. The two books under review here, Courtship and …

Generational Conflict In The Late Reformation: The Basel Paroxysm, Amy Nelson Burnett

Department of History: Faculty Publications

It would be tempting to consider the outbreak of the Reformation as an episode of generational conflict, the ramifications of which continued during the next several generations of the sixteenth century. This article, however, focuses instead on a more limited instance of generational conflict, both temporally and geographically. Moreover, it looks not at the first generation of reformers but at their successors—-or, more precisely, at their successors’ successors—-at a time of transition from the second to the third generation of Protestant clergy.

The “Basel Paroxysm,” a conflict over the Lord’s Supper that shook the Basel church in 1570/71, illustrates the …

Closing The Dutch Door: Review Of De Briefwisseling Van Anthonie Heinsius 1702-1720, Ed. A.]. Veenendaal, Jr., With M. T. A. Schouten., John B. Hattendorf

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

This is the nineteenth and final volume in A J. Veenendaal's magnificent edition of the private correspondence of the Grand Pensionary of Holland, Anthonie Heinsius (1641-1720). Fully described in a previous issue of this journal (see "A Dutch Door to Europe, 1702-1720," Documentary Editing 19 [September 1997]: 57-61), Heinsius's correspondence has long been recognized as the single most important source for European international history during the War of the Spanish Succession and its immediate aftermath. Over the course of a thirty-three-year project, this volume completes the total of 23,274 edited letters in Dutch, French, German, and English from the period …

Style Matters: Applying--Egads!--Theory To Documentary Editing, Tracy Duvall

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

Historical editors rarely cite theory to justify particular editorial practices. Instead, they usually make appeals to common sense and personal experience. Of course, "eyeballing it" is legitimate, but documentary editors should inform themselves about linguistic and literary theory to create better-informed policies for transcription and translation. Increasing theoretical sophistication will lead editors to pay more attention to reproducing an author's style. (The hyphenation of re-producing is meant to remind the reader that transcription and translation are creative acts [thus, produce] but that this creativity is constrained by the goal of fidelity to the source text [thus, re-].)

Cloistered Correspondence: Review Of When Prophecy Still Had A Voice: The Letters Of Thomas Merton And Robert Lax, Ed. Arthur W. Biddle., Claire Badaracco

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

The publication of these 346 letters over thirty years between Thomas Merton and his friend Robert Lax, who died in Olean, New York, three months before its publication, is timely, comprehensive, definitive, and a significant contribution to Merton studies. This is not light reading. Some of the correspondence is so encoded, privatized, and self-absorbed that the reader needs to compare the letters with the other works of the same period by these writers in order to make sense of things. The edition is scholarly, reliable, a solid addition to one's personal or university library, and highly recommended.

A Hybrid Edition For The Available Man: Review Of The Papers Of William Henry Harrison, 1800-1815,Ed. Douglas E. Clanin And Ruth Dorrel., William C. Digiacomantonio

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

William Henry Harrison (1773-1841) is an early American example of that perennial political type, the "Available Man." How else to explain the success of a public figure whose first elective office (as territorial delegate to Congress) was won by a margin of one vote; whose fortunes as governor of the Indiana Territory (1801-1812) waned longer than they waxed; whose pinnacle of glory at Tippecanoe endures in the national memory more as a limerick than a battle; and who reaped the political dividends of that battle only after twenty-five years, in a presidential campaign waged primarily by the conspicuous avoidance of …

The Meaning Of The Phrase ציר המקרש In The Temple Scroll*, Sidnie White Crawford

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

A minor point of contention in the interpretation of the Temple Scroll has been the meaning of the phrase ציר המקרש [city of the sanctuary] found in the laws concerning the purity of the ideal sanctuary envisioned by the Temple Scroll. This phrase is not a biblical phrase; therefore we cannot fall back on a biblical meaning to help us determine its meaning. The problem is compounded by the fact that the Temple Scroll uses avariety of terms to refer to the Temple building itself, the various buildings and courts which surround it, and the wider area around it; these …

Reading Bulgakov's The Master And Margarita From The Perspective Of Hinduism, Radha Balasubramanian

Russian Language and Literature Papers

Mikhail Bulgakov's The Master and Margarita (1966-67) has been praised highly for both its literary merit and its spiritual significance. Many critical studies explain the complex nature of the interrelationship between the natural and supernatural in the novel. The unexpected roles that otherworldly beings play in the novel, the resulting satire, and the fantastic in the plot create a certain inevitable puzzlement about the structure and meaning of the novel. Attempts to explain the implications of the spiritual elements underpinning the fantastic span through various belief systems, but given the complexity of Bulgakov's novel, a coherent, conclusive explanation has been …

Review Of Das Straßburger Eulenspiegelbuch: Studien Zu Entstehungs-Geschichtlichen Voraussetzungen Der Ältesten Drucküberlieferung, By Jürgen Schulz-Grobert, Priscilla A. Hayden-Roy

German Language and Literature Papers

Schulz-Grobert argues that scholars' pursuit of a phantom Low German original, and their "fixation" on Herman Bote as its author, have directed scholarly attention away from the role the editors in Strassburg played in its production. While TE scholarship to date is in agreement that a Strassburg editor had a hand in the final version of the book, Schulz-Grobert argues that the circle of humanists and literati associated with Grüninger's press in Strassburg were alone responsible for producing the book.There is no need to assume the existence of a Low German original, he states, nor does the "ERMAN B" acrostic, …

Intersecting Influences In American Haiku, Thomas Lynch

Department of English: Faculty Publications

In contemporary American haiku poetry we find a convergence of the tradition of the American transcendentalists, especially Emerson, Thoreau, and Whitman, with the Zen-influenced Japanese tradition of haiku composition. This convergence is most obvious in a shared belief in the ability of the poet to see the world anew, and in the desire to efface the subject/object dichotomy between the poet and the natural world. In the work of many North American poets, the transcendental and Zen traditions synthesize to generate a distinctive brand of haiku. Since the mid-1950s, literally thousands of collections of haiku poetry have appeared in the …

Dollars And Sense In Collaborative Digital Scholarship: The Example Of The Walt Whitman Hypertext Archive, Kenneth M. Price

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

One of the great advantages of the web is that there's a bunch of free stuff-that's the truism, anyway. But free stuff comes from somewhere, and it is rarely, if ever, free to produce. I am interested in exploring some of the costs of digital work, using as an example The Walt Whitman Hypertext Archive, a project I co-direct with Ed Folsom Since 1995, many people, myself included, have described our site as free, yet a considerable amount of resources continue to go into its making. I want to explore that conundrum.

Hypertextile Scholarship: Digitally Editing The Bayeux Tapestry, Martin Kennedy Foys

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

The dilemma of studying the Tapestry is twofold. In traditional editions of the textile, the discursive limits of the printed page require either a sacrifice of narrative fluidity for detailed resolution, or the converse. Put another way, in a printed edition, "readers" of the Tapestry either are given the document in gloriously detailed, high-resolution plates that fragment the textile's continuity, or are faced with small-scale reproductions that capture large narrative blocks but lack any comprehensive magnified detail. Additionally, since its rediscovery in the 1720s and like any complex and canonical narrative expression, the Tapestry has generated hundreds of scholarly books …

Review Of Miscellaneous Texts From The Judaean Desert, Edited By James Charlesworth, Et Al., Sidnie White Crawford

Department of Classics and Religious Studies: Faculty Publications

This volume is the thirty-eighth in the series Discoveries in the Judaean Desert, the vehicle for the publication of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Editor-in-chief Emanuel Tov and his able team of editors, including James VanderKam, the consulting editor for this volume, have produced another fine edition of these difficult texts, making them accessible in a predictable format to a scholarly audience. Each document is presented separately, with a physical description, a discussion of the contents, and a study of its paleography, orthography and morphology. Each fragment is transcribed, followed by notes, and photographic plates are supplied at the end of …

Editing Dead Reptiles: The Tebtunis Papyri At The University Of California, Berkeley, Anthony Bliss

Documentary Editing: Journal of the Association for Documentary Editing (1979–2011)

I am a curator, but some of my best friends are editors. I mostly edit myself. My collecting responsibilities cover roughly four thousand years of written history, so sometimes my focus is a little blurry. My own training harks back to the McKerrow-Greg-Bowers school of textual editing, but none of these three great editors prepared me for the challenge of handling thousands of papyri.
