The Way It Was, Thorvald Hansen Jan 2009

The Way It Was, Thorvald Hansen

The Bridge

When New York is mentioned, it seems that thoughts inevitably tum to a very large city, tall buildings, and with sidewalks and streets crowded with unfriendly people. The latter is only partially true, but it fits the common understanding, or perhaps one should say, misunderstanding, of the city and, more importantly, the state.

Portraiture In Colonial Virginia: A Transatlantic Narration Of Identity, Erin West Jan 2009

Portraiture In Colonial Virginia: A Transatlantic Narration Of Identity, Erin West

Theses & Honors Papers

When Virginia was first colonized, the environment wasn’t stable enough to support art.

An American Presidential Election In The Eyes Of A European Observer, Louis Christensen

The Bridge

After "election fever" ran rampant in the United States throughout the year 2008 and Europe was also "running a temperature," it might raise a few eyebrows to read what a European observer wrote home after having attended the presidential election in 1848.

Far From Denmark: Sketches And Scenes From The United States Of North America, Alex Felix, Louis Christensen

The Bridge

On an earlier occasion, I have written that there is only one political party in America, the only one possible in a republic: the Democratic [in the original sense of the term, i.e. rule by the people]. It is a party that has many branches with the same political viewpoints. Nevertheless, they differ from each other on several points, which they defend in their various newspapers. They try to promote their opinions, views, and political creeds with the public through candidates whom they nominate for office in elections--first and foremost, the presidential election.
