In Memoriam, Arthur Stanley Link, 1920-1998 Jun 1998

In Memoriam, Arthur Stanley Link, 1920-1998

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

Arthur Stanley Link, Director and Editor of the Papers of Woodrow Wilson Emeritus and George Henry Davis '08 Professor of American History Emeritus at Princeton University, died on March 26 at the Bermuda Village Health Center in Advance, North Carolina. The cause of death was lung cancer; he was seventy-seven years old. Link was one of the founders and the first president of the Association for Documentary Editing, 1979-80, and remained an enthusiastic supporter and adviser to subsequent officers of the ADE as well as to editors of the many projects which have developed under its aegis over the years.

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

It is hard to believe that ten years have passed since the publication of Eric Foner's magnum opus, Reconstruction: America} Unfinished Revolution, 1863- 1877. It seems like only yesterday that the historical profession first encountered what is now considered the definitive history of the postbellum era in the United States~ The main reason for this temporal illusion, of course, is that scholars have offered little or no revision of the main story Foner offered in 1988. Indeed, the book seems destined to go the route of C. Vann Woodward's monumental work, Origins of the New South, which survived unscathed for …

Margaret Fuller's Silences, Robert N. Hudspeth Mar 1998

Margaret Fuller's Silences, Robert N. Hudspeth

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

Silences are editors' bad luck: someone before us loses the evidence; our subject outsmarts us and refuses to say what we want most to hear from her; we ask questions she never even thought to answer. Let me make up some biographical conclusions from my reading of Margaret Fuller's letters: first, she had no interest in radical abolitionism or even in more moderate antislavery efforts in New England. Second, she almost never read and cared nothing for Charles Dickens, the most popular writer of his time. Third, she never rode the horse trolleys in New York City during her twenty-month …


John Adams: On Paper And In Person, Gregg L. Lint Mar 1998

John Adams: On Paper And In Person, Gregg L. Lint

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

In 1774 John Adams was a thirty-nine-year-old Massachusetts lawyer of modest means, middling height, and portly physique, who was ambitious, argumentative, over-earnest, direct to the point of rudeness, and intolerant of fools. How did this man, seemingly unsympathetic and ordinary when compared to George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, and Benjamin Franklin, become by 1776 Congress's most influential member? Why was he named president of the Board of War and appointed to the committees that drafted the Treaty Plan of 1776 and the Declaration of Independence? Why was he then chosen to serve as a diplomat in Europe and later elected vice …


What About That Twenty-Year Gap?, Carolyn De Swarte Gifford Mar 1998

What About That Twenty-Year Gap?, Carolyn De Swarte Gifford

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

What is the twenty-year gap? There are no journal volumes from fall 1870 until January 1893. After filling more than forty volumes-nearly five thousand pages detailing her life from her fifteenth through her thirty-first years, Frances E. Willard suddenly stopped keeping a journal. On her thirty-first birthday, 28 September 1870, she wrote: "[M]y Journal has this day been shaken hands with in a long adieu, and I here record my purpose to write no more wishy-washy pages of personal reminiscence." Then, just as suddenly, on New Year's Day 1893 she took up her journal again. "It is now over 20 …

Interview With Manuel Delanda, Switch Staffs Jan 1998

Interview With Manuel Delanda, Switch Staffs

SWITCH

An interview with philosopher Manuel De Landa and SJSU CADRE students, Brett Stalbaum, Matt Hoessli, Geri Wittig, Kristin Cully, Geoffrey Bruce, Anne-Marie Schleiner. De Landa's work focuses on the use of networks as a medium of expression. The discussion traces networking technology, including machine intelligence or artificial intelligence’s evolution from military to civilian contexts. They discuss, "One Thousand Years of Nonlinear History", De Landa's most recent book at that time that shows the history of the world from a non-anthropocentric view to make the worldview more inclusive as a self-organized and dynamical system that is unaffected by the hierarchical perspective …
