The People's War: Original Voices of the American Revolution

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rae, Noel, PUBLISHER: Lyons Press, "The People's War" is the story of one of history's great events, the American Revolutionary War, told almost entirely in the words of the soldiers who fought it and the civilians who endured it. Drawing on thousands of original sources--diaries, letters, memoirs, newspapers, pension applications--Noel Rae has culled the most colorful and vivid passages and woven them into a vibrant, eyewitness narrative that takes us from the peaceful days before the Stamp Act, through all the war's major events, and ends with farewell accounts of what happened in later life to the people we have come to know along the way. Some of these figures, like Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, John Adams, and King George III, are familiar figures, but most were ordinary people, little known to history, but here briefly emerging from obscurity: a farm boy who ran away to sea at the age of twelve, a pretty young widow roughed up by Tory ruffians, and a slave who escaped to the British after witnessing his mother being flogged. These are but a few of those whose collective voices, drawn from all sides of the conflict, bring the Revolution truly to life--in a history at its most entertaining "and" authoritative, for who better qualified to tell what happened than the people who were there?

Educating for Liberty: The Best of Imprimis,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Jeffrey, Douglas A., PUBLISHER: Hillsdale College Press, James Madison, the Father of our Constitution, explained in "Federalist 55 "that the moral character of a people, molded through education, is the most essential in a nation where people rule. This understanding of education no longer predominates in America. Even as our government takes more of a hand in education than it has traditionally - or than it should constitutionally - it concerns itself primarily with regulating admissions and hiring policies according to race and gender, and with promoting "multicultural" curricula that downplay America's Western heritage. It concerns itself little, if at all, with the character of its citizens. The fact that our government today appears indifferent, or even hostile, to the kind of education America's Founders thought vital to preserving liberty - the kind of education offered at Hillsdale College - suggests that in many ways our government has grown indifferent, or even hostile to liberty itself. Under these circumstances, a large part of the work of Hillsdale College is devoted to promoting liberty and its underlying moral principles nationwide. Central to this mission is "Imprimis," a national monthly speech digest of presentations made at Hillsdale conferences and seminars by leaders, writers, and scholars who support limited government, free enterprise, individual rights, personal responsibility and strong national defense. "Imprimis" was launched thirty years ago with a circulation of only a few thousand. Ten years ago, upon the publication of "In the First Place," a collection of the best of "Imprimis's" first twenty years, its circulation had grown to . As "Imprimis" turns thirty, its circulation is well over - and growing. "Educating for Liberty" collects thirty of the first 360 speeches published in "Imprimis." Some date back to its earliest days; others are quite recent. Each is worth reading. Together they set a high standard as "Imprimis "looks to the future. Authors include Larry P. Arnn, Russell Kirk, Lynne V. Cheney, Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell, Edwin Meese III, Mark Helprin, Ronald Reagan, George Gilder, John Stossel, Malcolm Muggeridge, Michael Novak, Michael Medved, William J. Bennett, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, Jeane Kirkpatrick, Margaret Thatcher, and Jesse Helms.

The Dramatic Arts and Cultural Studies: Educating Against

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Berry, Kathleen S. / Kincheloe, Joe L., PUBLISHER: Routledge, With the current, fast-paced, major philosophical challenges to modern life and its institutional constructs, artists and teachers involved in the multiple aspects of the dramatic arts are faced with demands to create a lucid postmodern play of ideas and forms. This book presents a wide range of contemporary theories borrowed from Cultural Studies augmented with practical implications that support dramatic artists in their struggle to create possible multiple realities for a postmodern future. Teachers, directors, writers, students, and many others involved in the dramatic arts will benefit from the discussions of Cultural Studies and the connections to the Dramatic Arts. An introductory chapter by Shirley Steinberg, a leading educator and drama teacher, provides a context for the basic premises of Cultural Studies and the Dramatic Arts. The next five chapters mix theory and practice while chapter seven provides questioning strategies and conventions that can be used in actual sessions to deconstruct scripted or improvised dramatic texts. This is a useful introductory text for artists, directors, teachers, students, and others involved in the Dramatic Arts who would like to energize their work through contemporary theories and practices of Cultural Studies.
