Samuel A. Swann And The Development Of Florida, 1855-1900, Helen R. Sharp Mar 2021

Samuel A. Swann And The Development Of Florida, 1855-1900, Helen R. Sharp

Florida Historical Quarterly

The development of any community or geographic division is greatly influenced by those who promote its beginnings and further its growth. Among those who had confidence in the future of Florida was Samuel A. Swann, whose activities from 1855 to 1909 show that he was a valuable and conscientious supporter of the economic expansion of the state and of the city of Fernandina. His business interests were so varied and extensive in character that they present a cross-section of the development of Florida during the period in question, particularly in the opening of, public lands for settlement.


Spanish Fortifications Of Pensacola, 1698-1763, Stanley Faye Mar 2021

Spanish Fortifications Of Pensacola, 1698-1763, Stanley Faye

Florida Historical Quarterly

Spain knew toward the end of the seventeenth century that her enemy France soon would be colonizing the Mississippi valley. Wilderness guarded Mexico (New Spain) from an attack by any French soldiers who should garrison the future posts of Louisiana. In order that a hostile fleet might not sail against Spanish ports of the Gulf, Spain took steps to occupy the one still unoccupied Gulf port deep enough to serve as base for such a fleet. 1 So in April of 1693 a Mexican mathematician, Don Carlos de Siguenza y Gongora, led an official expedition into Pensacola bay to investigate …


St. Augustine Under The British Flag, 1763-1775, Charles L. Mowat Mar 2021

St. Augustine Under The British Flag, 1763-1775, Charles L. Mowat

Florida Historical Quarterly

The city of St. Augustine, in the serenity which comes from nearly four hundred years of existence, inevitably carries the visitor back to the days of the Spanish Empire. Its narrow streets, its low coquina houses with their balconies overhanging the roadway, its shady square running from the old Governor’s House down to the bay, and above all the massive yet graceful lines of the fort which should be called as of old Castillo de San Marcos, all bring back the spirit of the Old World to blend with that of the New into something of its original charm and …

The second part believed that Britain and the Zionist Movement were two sides of one coin therefore, they should be faced together, and to …

Infectious Ideas: Why Do Radical Innovations Take Root?, Steven Pfaff Mar 2021

Infectious Ideas: Why Do Radical Innovations Take Root?, Steven Pfaff

Sociology Faculty Articles and Research

"Living in the midst of a pandemic, we have all become familiar with the idea of contagion. An epidemic spreads through exposure to an infectious agent, like a novel virus. In a basic contagion model, the spread of a disease is a function of contact with the agent and its degree of infectiousness. Epidemiologists often model the risk of contagion as a function of contact (or frequency or level of contact) with the infected and the agent’s virulence.

When it comes to triggering radical institutional change, do ideas work the same way?

In a recent article, a team of …
