The American President in Popular Culture

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe American presidency has held a unique role within the realm of the nation`s culture. From the character of George Washington in early American mythology, to Richard Nixon`s now famous utterance of `Sock it to me!?` on Rowan and Martin`s Laugh-In to George W. Bush waving the starting flag at a NASCAR event, the leader of the executive branch has often taken stage in the forum of American popular culture. This edited collection presents chapters that survey the ways popular culture has both reflected and been influenced by presidents throughout history. Chapters focus on Birthplaces and Homes, Drama, Film, Libraries, Memorabilia, Magazines and Tabloids, Myths, Legends, Stories and Jokes, Newspapers, Paintings and Sculptures, Political Cartoons and Comics, Popular Music, Radio, and Television. A timeline traces intersections of the presidency and popular culture, and a subject index provides an additional resource for researchers. [detailed...]

The American Quilt: A History of Cloth and Comfort 1750-1950

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: For more than two hundred years, American women have been recording their hopes and dreams, their fears and frustrations in the exacting stitches and exuberant designs of their quilts. The American Quilt shows how these virtuoso textiles, long appreciated for their bold graphic appeal and naive charm, are also a fascinating reflection of cultural and social attitudes, painting an indelible portrait of our nation’s history and the remarkable women who lived it. America of the 18th and 19th centuries developed at a breathtaking pace, and the changes that marked each era were inevitably mirrored in the prevailing quilting styles of the period. The American Quilt marks the first time the evolution of quilting has been traced chronologically, identifying the fabric, design, and construction hallmarks of each period and showing the genesis of beloved patterns and styles. A thorough discussion of America’s textile history, complete with a fabric time-line,… [detailed...]

The American Tradition of International Law: Great Expectations 1789-1914

2004 y.
Publisher: The Clarendon press, Oxford University Press
Description: This volume, the first of two, charts the history and emergence of international law in the American common law tradition, from its English roots in the late 18-th century to the outbreak of World War I in 1914. At the end of the 18-th century it made little sense anywhere in the English-speaking world to talk of either international law or international lawyers, and yet fifty years later, international law had become a commonplace linguistic, legal, and political reality in America, and international lawyering had become a thriving profession. How do we account for the rise of international law in the United States? The answer cannot be simple and it may never be complete. Yet, approaching this question may enable us to better account for the state of American international law today and to help to predict its future. Mark Janis addresses this complex issue by grouping those who played a part in the intellectual development of international law by their several roles:… [detailed...]

The American West at Risk: Science, Myths, and Politics of Land Abuse and Recovery

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The American West at Risk summarizes the dominant human-generated environmental challenges in the 11 contiguous arid western United States - America`s legendary, even mythical, frontier. When discovered by European explorers and later settlers, the west boasted rich soils, bountiful fisheries, immense, dense forests, sparkling streams, untapped ore deposits, and oil bonanzas. It now faces depletion of many of these resources, and potentially serious threats to its few `renewable` resources. The importance of this story is that preserving lands has a central role for protecting air and water quality, and water supplies--and all support a healthy living environment. The idea that all life on earth is connected in a great chain of being, and that all life is connected to the physical earth in many obvious and subtle ways, is not some new-age fad, it is scientifically demonstrable. An understanding of earth processes, and the significance of their biological connections, is critical in… [detailed...]

The American West: Competing Visions

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: The American West was once the story of gunfights, glory, wagon trails, and linear progress. Historians such as Frederick Jackson Turner and Hollywood movies including Stagecoach (1939) and Shane (1953) cast the trans-Mississippi region as an epic frontier in which `savagery` met `civilization` and boys became men.During the late 1980s, this idea of the West came under fire. Scholars such as Patricia Nelson Limerick and Richard White forged a fresh story of the region, a new vision based on the conquest of peoples and landscapes. The American West: Competing Visions explores the contrast between Turner`s Old West and Limerick`s New West, highlighting the values and ambiguities associated with each tradition. Sections on Lewis and Clark, the frontier, and the cowboy accompany research on Indian genocide and excerpts from women`s trail diaries. Images of the region as seen through the arcade Western, Hollywood film, and Disney theme parks reaffirm the West as a symbolic and contested… [detailed...]

The American Work Ethic and the Changing Work Force : An Historical Perspective (Contributions in Labor Studies)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: A major force in American society, the work ethic has played a pivotal role in U.S. history, affecting cultural, social, and economic institutions. But what is the American work ethic? Not only has it changed from one era to another, but it varies with race, gender, and occupation. Considering such diverse groups as Colonial craftsmen, slaves, 19th century women, and 20th century factory workers, this book provides a history of the American work ethic from Colonial times to the present. Tracing both continuities and differences, the book is divided into sections on the Colonial era, the 19th century and the 20th century and includes chapters on both major occupational groups, such as farmers, factory workers, laborers, and gender, racial, and ethnic minorities.

Description: He`s the ultimate American hero. Since the fifties, he has been a symbol of hope and courage for the entire nation, an indestructible one-man army standing tall for freedom, justice, and the American way - but what about truth? When reporter Dennis Hough is assigned to cover a story about his boyhood hero, he begins to see the cracks in the legend. Does The American have feet of clay? Or is he himself a victim of a larger conspiracy? Created by screenwriter Mark Verheiden (The Mask, Smallville), The American wowed comics critics with it`s savvy mixture of gritty realism, cultural commentary, and dark humor set against the all too real backdrop of an America polarized into ideological camps standing off across an ever-widening gulf of mistrust and media distortion. Now, collected in its entirety for the first time (including hard-to-find American short stories), The American rises again, a cautionary tale perhaps even more relevant in today`s politically divided America.
