    No full text
    In this letter dated February 14, 1921, R. R. Barbour writes to President-elect Warren G. Harding regarding a journalist named Frederick William Wile. Barbour urges Harding to avoid Wile, stating that he admits to engaging in English propaganda and is now on his way to St. Augustine, Florida, where Harding is. This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345). This collection includes correspondence, business records, and other materials documenting Harding’s business career as owner and editor-in-chief of The Daily Marion Star, as well as the various stages of his political career. A significant portion of the collection, and what’s available on Ohio Memory, highlights his 1920 presidential campaign, spanning just before publicly announcing his candidacy to handily defeating Ohio Governor James M. Cox in the election. Correspondents include both Ohio and national businessmen, political figures, and ordinary citizens writing with questions, support, congratulatory notes, and campaign advice. Some of the most interesting insights into the tumultuous political climate in the U.S., the extreme factionalism within the Republican Party in Ohio, and Harding’s campaign strategies are described in letters between Harding and his campaign manager, Harry M. Daugherty. Some of the topics addressed include women’s suffrage, Prohibition, the League of Nations, African American representation and issues, and lingering peace negotiations following World War I

    Harry R. Kemerer letter to George B. Christian, November 8, 1919

    No full text
    In this letter dated November 8, 1919, editor of The Free Press Standard Harry R. Kemerer writes to George B. Christian, Senator Warren G. Harding's campaign manager, regarding U.S. Congressman David Adam Hollingsworth and the Ohio political situation. Kemerer states that during a recent interview, Hollingsworth brushes aside opportunities to promote Harding's candidacy, and instead announces his district candidacy for national delegate to the Republican National Convention. He also voices his support for presidential candidate General Leonard Wood and his supporter Colonel William C. Procter, and also blames Harding for his defeat in the 1910 congressional election. Because of Hollingsworth's outright disapproval of Harding, Kemerer believes that delegates to the Republican National Convention in 1920 should be Harding supporters only, in order to present a united front from Ohio. This letter is part of the Warren G. Harding Papers (MSS 345). This collection includes correspondence, business records, and other materials documenting Harding’s business career as owner and editor-in-chief of The Daily Marion Star, as well as the various stages of his political career.

    Human Rights Education and Social Studies Teacher Preparation: Is There any “There” There?

    No full text
    Using data from a survey of social studies professors and program directors in New Jersey, this paper presents the results of an investigation about the degree to which human rights education is integrated within the professional teacher preparation programs leading to social studies certification at colleges and universities in New Jersey. Seven institutions of higher education are represented, combining both public and private colleges and universities. Findings indicate that human rights education is not heavily represented in the content of social studies certification coursework, nor are students enrolled in such classes very knowledgeable about the history of human rights, the UN/international treaty and legal framework, and humanitarian law issues based upon prior courses in their subject field majors. Students who exit these programs prior to receiving initial licensure in New Jersey have a relatively strong understanding of student-centered, participatory pedagogy compatible with human rights education concepts and strategies, but there is little evidence that study of core topics in U. S. or world history is placed within the broader context of the development of human rights. Recommendations emphasize a more cohesive integration of the NCSS standards for teacher preparation into social studies teacher preparation program design and implementation, with a specific focus on five standards where human rights content and themes can be effectively used. Additionally, more intensive collaboration between subject field faculty in the humanities and social sciences and social studies education faculty is needed to insure that human rights content and themes are actually studied regularly by social studies teacher preparation candidates prior to their exit from certification programs.Paper prepared for the 5th International Conference on Human Rights Education presentation on the panel: Human Rights Education in the USA: Collaborative Strategies to Effect Chang

    The death of William Golding: authorship and creativity in darkness visible and the paper men

    No full text
    In the seventies and eighties William Golding was deeply responsive to the critical, anti-authorial ethos that followed the publication of Roland Barthes's "La mort de I'auteur" (1968). In Darkness Visible (1979) and The Paper Men (1984) he investigates means by which to reaffirm authorial presence. Working through paradox, he performs the authorial death in these novels, and establishes language’s inadequacy as a means of conveying absolute meaning, authorial "vision," truth or revelation. Having done so he nonetheless gestures towards the divine, towards the possibility of a vatic communication. In this manner the novels work upon principles of contradiction and collapse. What remains is a discourse of hope, promise, desire, without means of substantiating such optimism. Thus Golding might be said to have practiced a form of negative theology, and to have anticipated in this respect some recent trends in literary theory
