Calvinist Metaphysics To Republican Theory: Jonathan Edwards And James Dana On Freedom Of The Will, Allen C. Guelzo

Civil War Era Studies Faculty Publications

The Reverend Mr. James Dana, the pastor of the First Church in Wallingford, Connecticut, had never before attempted to pick a quarrel with his old friend and ally, Ezra Stiles, the president of Yale College. But in the winter of 1782 what was happening at Yale passed all the bounds of propriety and friendship. "I have understood that Mr. Edwards's book on fatality was laid aside some years since at your university," Dana wrote (not stopping to add what he surely must have thought, and good riddance too); but now, "it gave me pain to hear lately" that the …

Confederate Civil War Photographers Propagators And The Hero Myth, Ronald L. Crusan

Institute for the Humanities Theses

Myths are metaphors. They are stories, sometimes handed down through hundreds of years, which help put man or a culture in accord with nature, to reconcile mankind to the harsh realities of life. Society's heroes, acting through the archetypal hero monomyth, serve as the personification of a culture's mythology. Through the hero, a society may reconcile with nature and those external forces which influence our lives.

This paper examines the historical development of the hero myth, the archetypal hero role that Robert E. Lee filled for the Southern people during the American civil War and the role that photography played …

The Civil War As A Catalyst For The Professionalization Of Nursing, Rosemary Plum

History Theses & Dissertations

The Civil War played a major role in the transformation of nursing from a domestic service to a genuine profession for women. Thousands of women moved into the public space of the battlefield to care for the sick and wounded, transferring their domestic skills to the administration of military hospitals and the gathering and distribution of sanitary supplies. The United States Sanitary Commission, an organization formed by women such as Dr. Elizabeth Blackwell, promoted the training of women as skilled nurses, Drawing on the techniques and experience of Florence Nightingale, American women elevated nursing, a previously domestic duty, into a …

"Preservation...From The Dangers Of The Enemy As Well As Seas": The Establishment Of The Old Cape Henry Lighthouse, Kevin Charles Valliant

History Theses & Dissertations

As the federal government of the United States began its existence, the Chesapeake Bay had gone without a significant navigational aid for nearly two centuries. What factors then led the newly established government to build a lighthouse on Cape Henry, at the entrance of the Bay? Although the colonial governments of Virginia and Maryland failed to build a lighthouse, their efforts provided the groundwork for the Cape Henry light, which the federal government envisioned not only as a device to guide ships to safety, but as part of a system designed to ensure revenue for the new nation. This study …

Chicago St. Louis Phoenix Cardinals, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

The Al Davis Oakland Los Angeles Irwindale Raiders are heading back to Oakland; the Chicago St. Louis Phoenix Cardinals are revving the engines on the moving vans headed to Los Angeles; the New York Yankees have signed Darryl Strawberry to a contract to play baseball; the New Jersey Devils have swept the Detroit Red Wings and won Lord Stanley's Cup on their way to Nashville; and Mike Tyson was honored as a hero in a public ceremony in Harlem.

Mickey Mantle, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

It has been a long time since there was so much talk of heroes around the sports scene. Two weeks ago this talk was precipitated by the news that Mickey Mantle was paying the price for his alcoholism and would undergo a liver transplant. Of interest to me was the fact that virtually no one suggested that Mantle was any less a great American hero in the face of his well documented alcoholism.

Baseball's All-Star Game, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Baseball's All-Star Game is coming up on Tuesday at The Ball Park in Arlington, one of the newest, and by most accounts one of the most beautiful of the new stadiums. Although the concept of an All-Star game dates back to 1858 and a game between allstar teams from Brooklyn and New York, it was sixty-two years ago that the first modern all-star game was held, July 6, 1933.

Honoring: Mike Schmidt, Richie Ashburn And Leon Day, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

On Sunday at the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown New York that yearly ritual of induction will take place for the 56th time. Once again those players who have been chosen by the Baseball Writer's Association of America or by the Veterans Committee will have their great day of recognition as being among the elite players of the National Pastime.

Ty Cobb, Richard C. Crepeau

On Sport and Society

Was he the greatest ballplayer of all time? He thought so and told everyone who would and would not listen that he was. In the first voting for entrance into the Hall of Fame Ty Cobb outpolled all his rivals. Ernest Hemmingway thought him one of the greatest, but also a despicable human being. It is this latter view that dominates the portrayal of Ty Cobb by Tommy Lee Jones in this stunning and deeply disturbing film just released on home video.
