Beginnings Of Popular Government In Florida, Allen Morris
Beginnings Of Popular Government In Florida, Allen Morris
Florida Historical Quarterly
As a soldier in Florida, Andrew Jackson asserted powers that stirred international protest. As a civil governor in Florida, Jackson worried about his use of lawful authority. Until Congress would establish a government for the territories of East and West Florida, Jackson took over the interim administration under a commission as governor of the Floridas, exercising “all the powers and authorities heretofore exercised by the Governor and Captain General and Intendant of Cuba, and by the Governors of East and West Florida within the said provinces respectively.“
Cyrus Teed And The Lee County Elections Of 1906, Elliott Mackle
Cyrus Teed And The Lee County Elections Of 1906, Elliott Mackle
Florida Historical Quarterly
Dr. Cyrus R. Teed seldom used a single word when an ornate phrase would do. By temperament he was an orator. The length of his sermons was cut to nineteenth-century fashion. His lectures on scripture were notable not only for novelty of doctrine and idiosyncrasy of interpretation but for supreme grandiloquence. Nor did his style differ much in private discourse. Conversation was to him but the beginning of monologue. Simple questions invariably called up complex answers.

Life And Health Concerns Of A European Monastic Scribe During The 14th Century, Jared Reiling, Christopher O'Neill, Nick Curatolo
Life And Health Concerns Of A European Monastic Scribe During The 14th Century, Jared Reiling, Christopher O'Neill, Nick Curatolo
2021 Festschrift: The Interpolated Roman de Fauvel in Context
Writing in a quiet, candle-lit room may sound hygge to some, but monks during the 14th century would describe their work on the scriptorium as cold, depressing, tedious, mundane, and exhausting. The copying of all texts, including biblical and musical, was done by hand with monks working around the clock copying, illuminating manuscripts, and binding books. With the regimented schedule of monastic life, the Church worked scribes till exhaustion which created health problems and aggravated underlying conditions. Though cataracts were a common problem, commoners performed surgery on each other to restore sight, but it only made the situation worse.

Do It By The Book - The Development And Manufacturing Of Books In The Middle Ages, Casey Cromp, Annaliese Croasdale, Emma Pilmer, Lauren Diciaula
2021 Festschrift: The Interpolated Roman de Fauvel in Context
This paper discusses the book-making progress in the Middle Ages that was used across Europe. This process includes the making of paper, the making of the inks used, bookbinding, and how books were printed. Each is an important aspect of how early manuscripts were created. Without these processes, there would not be written documentation of early literature or music. This paper provides a deeper understanding of the work that was implemented into creating early books, and gives insight as to what the book-making process consisted of before the development of present-day technologies.

A New Guide To Sources Of Spanish Florida History, D. Lorne Mcwatters
A New Guide To Sources Of Spanish Florida History, D. Lorne Mcwatters
Florida Historical Quarterly
Research into Spanish Borderlands history received major impetus from a recent National Endowment for the Humanities grant to the P. K. Yonge Library of Florida History, University of Florida, Gainesville. In August 1977, the Endowment awarded $127,000 to the Yonge Library to initiate a three-year project to prepare a guide to the Florida Borderlands collection. The Spanish Florida Borderlands Project represents the first concerted effort to organize and make these materials accessible.
Seminole Folktales, Hedvig Tetens Evans
Seminole Folktales, Hedvig Tetens Evans
Florida Historical Quarterly
In Florida in the early 1950s when these stories were gathered, folktales were still being kept alive among some of the oldest Seminole Indians. All of the following tales were collected at the Brighton Reservation which is located in the center of the state northwest of Lake Okeechobee. It is one of three federal Indian reservations in Florida. The Seminole words that are used are in the Muskogee (Cow Creek) dialect. This is different from the Hitchiti dialect used by the Miccosukees who live on the Tamiami Trail west of Miami.
Torment Of Pestilence: Yellow Fever Epidemics In Pensacola, George F. Pearce
Torment Of Pestilence: Yellow Fever Epidemics In Pensacola, George F. Pearce
Florida Historical Quarterly
For more than a century, yellow fever epidemics intermittently swept over Pensacola, Florida, producing a high mortality, disrupting its economic and social life, dividing community leaders and medical authorities over courses of action in combatting them, causing untold numbers to flee, some permanently, and keeping those who remained in a state of demoralizing terror. The approach of summer each year invariably brought with it the fear of a repetition of the dreadful experience. This atmosphere of apprehension and utter helplessness was nourished by ignorance about the origin, transmission, and prevention of the disease. It was not until 1900 that medical …
Colored Town: Miami's Black Community, 1896-1930, Paul S. George
Colored Town: Miami's Black Community, 1896-1930, Paul S. George
Florida Historical Quarterly
At the time of Miami’s incorporation in 1896, the fortunes of black Americans had declined to their lowest level since the Civil War. The heady illusions and notable accomplishments of the freedmen during Reconstruction had succumbed to the harsh realities of economic dependency and the restoration of white Democratic rule in the South. Increasingly, blacks found themselves scapegoats for political and economic tensions and targets of virulent new doctrines of racial inferiority, resulting in widespread disfranchisement, segregation (Jim Crow) legislation, and increasing white intimidation and violence in Florida and elsewhere in the South. The problems worsened in the early decades …
The Menendez Marquez Cattle Barony At La Chua And The Determinants Of Economic Expansion In Seventeenth-Century Florida, Amy Bushnell
The Menendez Marquez Cattle Barony At La Chua And The Determinants Of Economic Expansion In Seventeenth-Century Florida, Amy Bushnell
Florida Historical Quarterly
Spanish Florida has the historical reputation of a bleak and unfriendly place, unproductive, impoverished, and unhealthy, where governors and soldiers, friars and passive Indian converts were unable to defend their own borders, much less make the land self-sustaining. The doleful letters from officials of the colony about the lateness or inadequacy of the garrison’s situado have made an impact on researchers, if they did not on the Crown. In recent years, however, examples of economic activity have been examined that belie this picture of total dependency. There were times during the seventeenth century when Spanish Florida approached self-sufficiency and was …

The White Springs Post Office Caper, Jerrell H. Shofner
The White Springs Post Office Caper, Jerrell H. Shofner
Florida Historical Quarterly
With the 1885 constitution ratified and the state’s poll tax law about to become effective, the 1888 election was the last in which large numbers of blacks voted and was the last in which the Republican party posed a serious threat to the predominance of the Democrats for many decades. Even then the Democrats carried the state races by comfortable majorities. But the 1888 race had been an exciting election in which some Conservative-Democrats in the black belt counties had left themselves vulnerable to charges of violating federal election laws. This caused concern among them when Democrat Grover Cleveland was …
Career Of A "Carpetbagger": Malachi Martin In Florida, Mildred L. Fryman
Career Of A "Carpetbagger": Malachi Martin In Florida, Mildred L. Fryman
Florida Historical Quarterly
The epithet "carpetbagger" holds such a solid place in the vocabulary of American history that it would be difficult to describe the nation’s Reconstruction experience without utilizing it. In 1868, the editors of a Pensacola newspaper expressed the attitude towards “carpetbaggers” which prevailed among white Southerners. “While crushed beneath a grinding military despotism, hireling spies and impudent adventurers have swarmed upon . . . [us] taking a despicable advantage of . . . [our] weakness, misfortunes and suffering to traduce, vilify and malign . . . [us]. . . . Upstarts, without name, character or position in their own land, …

Private Societies And The Maintenance Of Seminole Tribal Integrity, 1899-1957, Harry A. Kersey, Jr.
Florida Historical Quarterly
In the last quarter of the nineteenth century the Seminole Indians of southern Florida were a relatively independent and prosperous people. The small remnant group which remained in Florida following the Third Seminole War (1855-58), numbering fewer than 200, evaded army efforts to capture them, and they faded away into the fastness of the Everglades and Big Cypress Swamp. For several decades they lived in virtual isolation from the outside world, venturing forth only for occasional trading visits to frontier villages such as Miami, Fort Meade, and Fort Myers. During these years they completed the last stage of an ethnoecologic …
