Writing Center Practices In Tennessee Community Colleges, James E. Crawford

Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The objective of this study was to develop a profile of writing centers in twelve community colleges governed by the Tennessee Board of Regents. This profile included how they were established, how they are funded and staffed, what services are provided and to whom, how training is provided for staff, and how technology is incorporated. More important than the profile itself, however, was an analysis of successful and unsuccessful practices, especially those related to governance, structure, and training of staff, as revealed through the perceptions and experiences of writing center directors. Because electronic technology has transformed the craft of writing, …

On Editing Hemingway Badly Or Not At All: Cautionary Reflections, Susan F. Beegel

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

The archivally correct cardboard boxes of the Hemingway Collection pulse with energy. Hemingway's estate included at his death nearly twenty thousand pages of holograph, typescript, carbon, and proof. Those pages make up more than eight hundred manuscripts of published and unpublished work, and vividly show the composition process of twentieth-century American literature's most influential prose stylist. They represent as well one of the last and finest opportunities to study the composition process itself, now that the delete key has arrived to send all false starts, alternative endings, errors, and omissions into the ether, and to cloak the writer's additions and …

Transcribing And Translating Early Nineteenth Century Moravian Missionary Diaries, Rowena Mcclinton

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

This paper illuminates the importance of the Moravian Archives as a major repository for the study of Cherokee culture, missionary contributions to the understanding of Native history, the editorial approaches taken to render the best textual treatment of the documents, and the overall significance of the documents as they relate to Cherokee culture.

Are Religious Records Different?, Robert J. Cain

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

Are religious records different?" It depends. The answer must take into account such basic historical considerations as time, place, circumstances, and personalities. This much, as least, is common to "religious" and "secular" records.

The Ernest Hemingway Collection At The John F. Kennedy Library, Stephen Plotkin

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

For the ADE meeting last October, I was asked to comment on the Hemingway Collection from the perspective of an archivist and a curator. The trouble is, the Hemingway Collection is, at this point, thoroughly uninteresting-archivally speaking. Basic concepts of archival theory such as provenance or original order, respect du fonds, apply either trivially (we know precisefly where these papers came from) or not at all (these papers never had an original order). In terms of archival practice, the Hemingway Collection at one time posed a genuine challenge, simply because it did lack any order. The first curator, Jo August …

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.

A Northerner Transformed : Review Of The Fire Of Liberty In Their Hearts: The Diary Of Jacob E. Yoder Of The Freedmen's Bureau School Lynchburg, Virginia, 1866-1870. Samuel L. Horst, Ed., James H. Cook

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

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

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

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 …
