The Delaware Valley in the Early Republic : Architecture, Landscape, and Regional Identity (Creating the North American Landscape)

Gabrielle M. Lanier


The Delaware Valley in the Early Republic : Architecture, Landscape, and Regional Identity (Creating the North American Landscape) Gabrielle M. Lanier Book Description Book Description "History, after all, has a corporeal aspect--every event occupies a physical dimension, and all actions are ultimately grounded, one way or another, in the landscape. Places, which possess their own geography, natural history, and embedded perceptions, not only ground the physicality of historical events -- they also can constitute both actor and stage." -- from The Delaware Valley in the Early Republic . The Delaware Valley's role in shaping national identity during the formative years of the early American republic has long been overshadowed by New England and the South, both more readily identified as distinct and coherent regions than the broad geographic swath that includes Delaware, southwestern New Jersey, and southeastern Pennsylvania. For architectural historians, geographers, and folklorists, the Delaware River valley offers a fascinating example of a true cultural crossroads. Comprising several distinctive and intensely local subregions -- each......

Adams on Adams

John Adams


Adams on Adams John Adams Book DescriptionJohn Adams insisted that his was a life insignificantly lived, yet he took great pride in having played an integral role in the birth of a nation. His writings were spiced with the wit and humor of a person who took his ideas seriously but not himself. When Adams began writing early in his career, he realized, Book DescriptionJohn Adams insisted that his was a life insignificantly lived, yet he took great pride in having played an integral role in the birth of a nation. His writings were spiced with the wit and humor of a person who took his ideas seriously but not himself. When Adams began writing early in his career, he realized, "A pen is certainly an excellent instrument to fix a man?s attention and to inflame his ambition." Through his writings, both public and private, John Adams speaks of his rise from a country lawyer to the nation?s highest office by the force of his personality. Adams on Adams is an autobiographical account of an extraordinary journey. Drawing from Adams?s own letters, diaries, notes, and autobiographies, editor Paul M. Zall creates a fresh portrait of the nation?s second president. Adams?s words reveal how a man lacking the advantages of money, connections, class, or patronage promoted American independence at home and abroad. Zall......

Algeria in France: Transpolitics, Race, and Nation (New Anthropologies of Europe)

Paul A. Silverstein


Algeria in France: Transpolitics, Race, and Nation (New Anthropologies of Europe) Paul A. Silverstein Book DescriptionAlgerian migration to France began at the end of the 19th century, but in recent years France?s Algerian community has been the focus of a shifting public debate encompassing issues of unemployment, multiculturalism, Islam, and terrorism. In this finely crafted historical and anthropological study, Paul A. Silverstein examines a wide range of social and cultural forms?from immigration policy, colonial governance, and urban planning to corporate advertising, sports, literary narratives, and songs?for what they reveal about postcolonial Algerian subjectivities. Investigating the connection between anti-immigrant racism and the rise of Islamist and Berberist ideologies among the Book DescriptionAlgerian migration to France began at the end of the 19th century, but in recent years France?s Algerian community has been the focus of a shifting public debate encompassing issues of unemployment, multiculturalism, Islam, and terrorism. In this finely crafted historical and anthropological study, Paul A. Silverstein examines a wide range of social and cultural forms?from immigration policy, colonial governance, and urban planning to corporate advertising, sports, literary narratives, and songs?for what they reveal about postcolonial Algerian subjectivities. Investigating the connection between anti-immigrant racism and the rise of Islamist and Berberist ideologies among the "second generation" ("Beurs"), he argues that the appropriation of these cultural-political projects by Algerians in France represents a critique of notions of European or Mediterranean unity and elucidates the mechanisms by which the Algerian civil war has been transferred onto......
