Barton University of Cincinnati Return to Articles Abstract we us , and our when discussing the nation's past. Public history, in the form of museums, historic sites, and the media, also reflects this emphasis on national origins and development. History in Northern Ireland is very different. There, accounts of the national past inevitably fall into either Nationalist or Unionist camps, and so any story of the region's history is controversial. As a result, national history is completely avoided in the primary school curriculum (up through about age 11), as well as in most other settings in which primary-aged children learn about the past. Instead of learning a narrative of national development, students study a variety of past societies, such as the Ancient Egyptians, Mesolithic peoples, and the Vikings. Even when focusing more directly on Northern Ireland, as in units on daily life in the Victorian Era or during World War II, the curriculum emphasizes social and material life rather than national political developments.

Women in the Victorian era From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. The status of Women in the Victoria Era is often seen as an illustration of the striking discrepancy between the nation's power and richness and what many, then and now, consider its appalling social conditions. During the Era symbolized by the reign of British monarch Queen Victoria was very difficult for women, because of the vision of the "ideal women" shared by most in the society. The legal rights of married women were similar to those of children. They could not vote or sue or even own property. Also, they were seen as pure and clean. Because of this view, their bodies were seen as temples which should not be adorned with makeup nor should it be used for such pleasurable things as sex. The role of women was to have children and tend to the house. They could not hold jobs unless it was that as a teacher nor were they allowed to have their own checking accounts or savings accounts. In the end, they were to be treated as saints, but saints that had no legal rights.

MORE INFO AND CHOICES Email: Description Table of Contents About the Author Related Books "Catherine Cocks has provided a new and fascinating look at cities. Rather than merely places to live and work, cities take shape as places to visit. Deeply researched, Doing the Town engagingly reveals how citiesonce seen as suspect and dangerousbecame comfortable and entertaining vacation destinations. Most importantly, Cocks persuasively argues, the growth of urban tourism helped to erode Victorian culture and fashion a modern America."Cindy S. Aron, author of Working at Play: A History of Vacations in the United States Doing the Town is a major contribution to the history of urban recreational travel and sightseeing in the United States. It provides richly detailed accounts of the ways tourism shaped American cities in the second half of the 19th century. "Dean MacCannell, author of The Tourist: A New Theory of the Leisure Class "Cocks' study of the rise of commericalized urban tourism throws light upon a long neglected chapter in the social history of travel; but more importantly, in the course of charting the emergence of a new style of 'spatial practice,' Cocks has new and interesting tales to tell on the history of American cities, consumer cultures, nationalist ideologies, and ethnicities."Judith Adler, author of "Travel as a Performed Art,"

Laumann, PhD; Christopher M. Masi, MD; Ezra W. Zuckerman, MA Objective. - To assess the prevalence of circumcision across various social groups and examine the health and sexual outcomes of circumcision. Design. - An analysis of data from the National Health and Social Life Survey. Participants. - A national probability sample of 1410 American men aged 18 to 59 years at the time of the survey. In addition, an oversample of black and Hispanic minority groups is included in comparative analyses. Main Outcome Measures. - The contraction of sexually transmitted diseases, the experience of sexual dysfunction, and experience with a series of sexual practices. Results. - We find no significant differences between circumcised and uncircumcised men in their likelihood of contracting sexually transmitted diseases. However uncircumcised men appear slightly more likely to to experience sexual dysfunctions, especially later in life. Finally, we find that circumcised men engage in a more elaborated set of sexual practices. This pattern differs across ethnic groups, suggesting the influence of social factors. Conclusions. -

We will investigate texts that offer insight into strategies for resisting current and historically entrenches systems of cultural subjugation, domination, and neocolonalism. In the process of these investigations we will also contemplate decolonizing some aspect of our own lives, experiment with writing letters, and occasionally meditate as a practical means of foregrounding questions of embodiment, experiential knowledge, and self-location.

For example, in a letter to Miss Mabel Hubbard , Bell expressed his emotions, his poetic facility with language, and his love of nature. Likewise, in a letter to his parents , Bell shows his concern over the intolerance of the general public regarding Charles Darwin’s research, "I cannot understand the prejudice with which many people view an honest and hard-working investigator like Darwin." Letter from Alexander Graham Bell to Alexander Melville Bell, Eliza Symonds Bell, Carrie Bell, January 27, 1873 Bell would often host discussions, inviting prominent individuals to present papers on a variety of topics. In his 1902 journal Bell wrote, "Last Wednesday, April 2, we had up for discussion the subject of the relation of capital and labor" and noted that 28 gentlemen and 4 ladies attended. He was so impressed by the paper presented by Mr. Friedman that he had it entered in its entirety as an appendix in his 1902 journal. The 1902 journal also includes topics as varied as Stonehenge and efforts to provide an early form of air-cooling for patrons attending the St. Louis World’s Fair.

That is, how have the "south Italian race" and the "Anglo-Saxon race" come and gone, while the "white race" and "black race" have stayed with us? How have these groups and others encountered the nation's racial order over the years, with some attempting to dismantle it to gain greater equality (e.g. the civil rights movement) and others attempting to shore it up to protect their own privileges (e.g., the KKK and the Zoot Suit Riots)?

Advertise with us From the issue dated September 12, 2003 A Queer Notion of History Research on gay and lesbian life makes its mark By SCOTT MCLEMEE It is not easy being gay in Oklahoma. When a leading national gay publication ranked the states according to their records on gay rights, Oklahoma came in 50th. Not one locality in the state has passed an ordinance against discrimination on the basis of sexual preference. But this inhospitable climate seems to have fostered true grit among local pioneers in gay history. Since the Tulsa Center for Gay and Lesbian History opened, in January, Laura Belmonte, the director, has raised $25,000 from private donors. "That's not counting the office space donated by the lesbian-and-gay community center," she adds, nor the labor contributed by archivists, librarians, and amateur historians in the area. The center has started collecting books on gay history, and plans are under way to open a small museum. For now, though, any discussion of scholarship on gay and lesbian people in Oklahoma has to be conducted in the future tense. "We know a great deal about gay life in places like New York, Atlanta, and Minneapolis," says Ms. Belmonte, who is an associate professor of history at Oklahoma State University at Stillwater. "But, really, you have a black hole with a place like Tulsa. Nothing much has been written. And it's not that there haven't been gays and lesbians here all along. Remember, Oklahoma was the frontier. It was where people went to do all the things you weren't supposed to do elsewhere."

USCWC Newsletter September 1999 Table of Contents: From the Director Web Site Update Civil War Book Review : Editor's Note ... Children's Books From the Director by Leah W. Jewett As you may know, I first joined the Center's staff in December 1995 as coordinator. Armed with a background in anthropology, I took quickly to Founding Director David Madden's concept of interdisciplinary study of the Civil War, and have been fascinated with it ever since. The discipline of anthropology (literally defined as the study of man) teaches examination of the whole person. The sub-disciplines of archaeology, physical anthropology, cultural anthropology and linguistics intertwine to reveal an individual or group's biological attributes (health status, age, gender), cultural contributions (art, music, language, literature), methods of adaptation to the environment (architecture, engineering), interaction with others (economics, warfare) and world philosophy (politics, ideology, religion). Anthropology, multifaceted by nature, is an ideal lens through which to examine the war. The Cemetery as Cultural Document To see how anthropology can be used to study the Civil War era, consider the historic cemetery. What can the cemetery reveal to us? The names, birth and death dates, and even portraits of the dead are found on headstones, markers, and monuments. The sole purpose of the cemetery, is, of course, to serve as the repository of the dead. Or is it? If we look beneath the surface (pardon the pun) we find that the cemetery is indeed a cultural document of the

Select a Program Australia China Costa Rica England France Ghana Ireland Jamaica Mexico Netherlands New Zealand Philippines Scotland Thailand Vietnam International Internships Summer Programs Winter Programs - Bahamas - Ghana COURSE DESCRIPTION: The great Victorian-era authors were the popular entertainers of their time. Readers eagerly awaited their books-especially when the books were released in serial installments-just as we anticipate the next big Hollywood blockbuster sequel. Over time, most of the "penny dreadfuls" and serial novelists have been forgotten, but a few authors have gained lasting literary credibility. The central goal of this class is to closely analyze Victorian novels and our experiences of them as readers. We consider elements of structure and content, characters, ideas, themes, motifs and more-searching for the unique combination of artistry and entertainment that still endears these works to modern readers. We continually ask one of the most difficult-but perhaps most important-scholarly questions of all: what exactly is so great about these great works of literature? 2 In order to facilitate our discoveries, we immerse ourselves in the worlds of the authors and their stories by studying Victorian society and customs. Perhaps more importantly, we also immerse ourselves by stepping out of the classroom (flying over the Atlantic!) and studying in and among the places where these writers lived and the places they wrote about. We study and enjoy these works experientially, going where the traditional classroom cannot take us. We attempt to revive and revisit the real worlds that dwell inside the printed page.
