The preceding eight volumes covered Morris's career as the country's "Financier" -in fact the actual prime minister of the early Confederation-through his official diaries, letter books, and ancillary correspondence. Morris went into office with an ambitious agenda, and the earlier volumes amply chronicle his attempts to put his plans into effect. Believing that few citizens are disinterested patriots, Morris thought, as Hamilton did, that the best way to attach them to the new government was through self-interest. For this, public confidence in the government, especially in its fiscal aspects, was essential, and retiring the Revolutionary War debt and establishing a …

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

Tumultuous and momentous events occurred in the United States between 1865 and 1873. Dominating the political arena was the end of the nation's bloody civil war and the assassination of Abraham Lincoln, followed by the struggle over Reconstruction and the impeachment of President Andrew Johnson. In the middle of this ferment stirred the impressive figure of Salmon P. Chase, who served as chief justice of the Supreme Court from 1864 to 1873.

The following recently discovered document sheds important light not only on the underlying causes of the American Revolution but also on the relatively unexplored, but nonetheless vital, history of grant making. The document is what is called in grants biz a "questions letter," one of the many ways in which grants analysts attempt to help applicants.

War Stories: Review Of Home Front Soldier: The Story Of A Gi And His Italian American Family During World War Ii. Richard Aquila, Ed., Michael E. Stevens

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

One of the joys of documentary editing is the opportunity to watch stories unfold in the documents. Thus, it is not surprising to see academic and trade presses publishing works aimed at a popular audience that rely heavily on historical texts. In the past several decades, documentary editors have done a remarkable job in creating standards, although most of their energies have focused on scholarly editions. Those efforts have been less successful in reaching those who prepare popular editions. Home Front Soldier is a good example of a work that effectively uses documents to tell a story, yet has not …

Now He Belongs To The Sages: Lincoln And The Academy, Cullom Davis

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

It is more appropriate to discuss a subject that I have explored and experienced intensively in recent years, that is of some broad cultural interest, and that may offer moments of light entertainment following a heavy meal. My remarks are entitled, "Now He Belongs to the Sages," but could also be "Living with Lincoln."

The Correspondence Of Benjamin Frankiin And His Grandson B. F. Bache, Karen C. Duval Mar 2000

The Correspondence Of Benjamin Frankiin And His Grandson B. F. Bache, Karen C. Duval

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

When Benjamin Franklin left Philadelphia for France in October 1776, he took along his sixteen-year-old grandson, William Temple Franklin, who would remain in Paris, serving as his secretary, for the entire eight-and-a-half-year mission. Also in tow was another grandson and Temple's cousin, Benjamin Franklin Bache. Benny, as he was usually called, was born in August 1769. No letters survive to indicate why Benny, who had just turned seven, was being sent abroad. His departure, following the death of his sister Sarah at eight and a half months, must have been an emotional one. But high aspirations for the young boy's …

Adolescent Journals Of Caroline Healey Dall, Helen R. Deese

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

Caroline Healey Dall(1822-1912), Boston born reformer, lecturer, author of books, freelance journalist, memoirist, and occasional preacher, began her apprenticeship as a writer at the age of nine with the keeping of a journal. While still a child, however, she destroyed her earliest journal when she discovered her father reading it. For some time thereafter, she ceased her journal keeping. But soon finding herself unable to quell the need to express herself on paper, she resumed the habit. The journals of this second period, which ran for several years, survived until Dall was in her seventies. Then she also destroyed them, …

Kecekapan Penggunaan Kamus Ekabahasa Dalam Meningkatkan Pengembangan Kosa Kata, Noraziah Ahmad Ghazali

Student Works (2000-2009)

A general survey of dictionary use would show that there is a tendency to agree that referring to the dictionary is a useful activity in enhancing and enriching one's vocabulary or word power, and that dictionary is a useful tool in language learning. However, the importance of introducing effective technique of dictionary use to students is neglected in the teaching and learning of language; as a matter of fact, it has been left to students to find their own way to acquire the skill. The dissertation seeks to examine how far an exposure to techniques of dictionary use can help …

Ethnolectal And Sociolectal Creativity In Malaysian Literature With Specific Reference To The Work Of K.S. Maniam, Gianna Cesarano

Student Works (2000-2009)

The purpose of this study is to highlight those features of the Malaysian varieties of English found in the creative writing of post-colonial author K. S. Maniam, showing how they are used to enhance characterization, foregrounding ethnicity and emphasizing social status, and to authenticate the cultural setting of his works. Although considerable research has been conducted to date on the features of localized varieties of English in postcolonial literature, specific reference to Maniam's works is mostly restricted to literary themes. Textual analysis of selected works by Maniam is conducted, referring to descriptions of the Malaysian varieties of English compiled by …
