Laura Riding Jackson papers
No full textLaura Riding Jackson (1901-1991) was an American poet, critic, and editor. She was closely associated with the Fugitive group, a cluster of American Southern writers centered at Vanderbilt University in Tennessee, which included John Crowe Ransom, Allen Tate, and Robert Penn Warren. She had a long partnership with Robert Graves; together they co-founded the Seizin Press, published several volumes of poetry, and co-edited the literary journal Epilogue. Jackson is generally acknowledged to have influenced the work of Graves, the New Zealand filmmaker Len Lye, and the writers James Reeves, Norman Cameron, T. S. Matthews, Jacob Bronowski, and W. H. Auden. The collection consists of correspondence between Jackson and Robert Nye, a British author, editor, and playwright, as well as manuscripts, newspaper and magazine clippings, and photographs. Subjects discussed include writers and writings, Martin Seymour-Smith, Robert Graves, and Nye
Metaphor and "metaphysic" : the sense of language in D.H. Lawrence
No full textThis study contributes to the contemporary debate about the language
of D. H. Lawrence concentrating on metaphor as the necessary vehicle
of Lawrence's 'metaphysic'. The focus is on the different levels of
attention to language in his work, and to Lawrence's responsiveness to
the levels of metaphor within language. Lawrence is seen here as one
who, in the Heideggerean sense, 'poetically thinks'. The texts
outlined below are given special consideration, representing a
particular body of language and thought within Lawrence's oeuvre
Chapter 1 outlines the purpose of the study and establishes the
Importance of Nietzsche, Heidegger and Paul Ricoeur on language,
specifically metaphor, in setting up the necessary philosophical
context for discussion of Lawrence. Chapter 2 addresses the selfconsciously
metaphorical language of the nominally 'discursive'
essays, Psychoanalysis and the Unconscious and Fantasia of the
Unconscious, underlining Lawrence's alertness to the efficacy of
metaphor rather than a referential or conceptual idiom. Fresh emphasis
is given to Psychoanalysis and the Unconscious as a central text in
the language debate. The insights afforded by these essays make it
possible to move to the fiction and, in chapter 3, to Women in Love.
Here the thesis builds on Lawrence's philosophical understanding of
the concept 'metaphor': in this novel, principally through a
consideration of 'love', Lawrence is seen to pull metaphor away from
its merely rhetorical status. Chapter 4 examines the different mode
and language of The Rainbow focusing on its more enveloping, less
'frictional', medium. By chapter 5, called 'Lawrence and Language',
the philosophical questions which emerge from a reading of these texts
can be addressed more explicitly. Finally, a conclusion underlines the
difficulties of talking about language stressing the importance,
implicit throughout, of reading Lawrence on his own terms. The
conscious and subliminal levels of metaphor within Lawrence's language
have been seen to bear his thought. What philosophy generally explains
analytically, Lawrence's language communicates metaphorically

Lawrence University Convocation Series Explores the Mind, the Environment, Personal Inspiration and Our Funny Bone
No full textHumorist David Sedaris, cognitive scientist Steven Pinker, best-selling author Susan Ariel Rainbow Kennedy (SARK) and environmental historian William Cronon will visit the Lawrence University campus in the coming year as part of the college’s 2003-2004 convocation series.
Richard Warch, who begins his 25th and final year as Lawrence University president, opens the convocation series Thursday Sept. 25 with his annual matriculation address.
Sedaris, an author, playwright and National Public Radio commentator, will break with Lawrence convocation tradition with a rare evening appearance when he speaks Tuesday, Oct. 14 at 7:10 p.m.
A regular contributor to Esquire magazine, Sedaris was named humorist of the year in 2001 by Time magazine and is a past recipient of the Thurber Prize for American Humor. He is the author of several best-selling books, including “Barrel Fever,” and “Holidays on Ice.” His most recent book, “Me Talk Pretty One Day,” is a series of humorous autobiographical essays.
Pinker, professor of psychology at the Center for Cognitive Neurosciences at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, presents “The Blank Slate” on Tuesday, Jan. 20.
Named one of the “100 Americans for the Next Century” by Newsweek magazine, Pinker is considered one of the world’s leading cognitive scientists. His book, “How the Mind Works,” was a Pulitzer Prize finalist in 1998 and his most recent work, 2002′s “The Blank Slate: The Modern Denial of Human Nature,” has thrust Pinker to the forefront of public debate about human nature and the development of the human mind.
SARK, a frequent guest on National Public Radio, presents “Make Your Creative Dreams Real” on Thursday, March 4. She has written 11 personal growth, inspiration and creativity books, including the 1997 self-help best seller “Succulent Wild Women.” She wrote her first book at the age of 10, and currently has more than two million books in print. She was featured in the PBS series, “Women of Wisdom and Power” and the documentary film, “The World According to SARK.”
On Tuesday, May 25, Cronon headlines Lawrence’s annual Honors Convocation with the address “The Portage: History and Memory in the Making.”
The Frederick Jackson Turner Professor of History, Geography and Environmental Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison since 1992, Cronon studies American environmental history and the history of human interactions with the natural world. He has written four books including “Nature’s Metropolis: Chicago and the Great West,” which earned Cronon the 1992 Bancroft Prize as the best work of American history published during the previous year and was one of three nominees for the Pulitzer Prize in History, and 1995′s “Uncommon Ground: Rethinking the Human Place in Nature.”
Cronon was named a Rhodes Scholar as an undergraduate at UW-Madison, and has since been honored as a Danforth Fellow and as a Guggenheim Fellow. In 1985, he was awarded one of the MacArthur Foundation’s prestigious “genius grants.

Journeys Through Jackson is the official publication of the Jackson County Genealogical Society Members and non-members are invited tc submit
genealogical materials for publication, with the understanding that the editor reserves the right to edit these materials for genealogical content, clarity or taste
The Society assumes no responsibility for errors of fact that may be contained in submissions, and except where noted the opinions expressed are not those
of the editor or of the Jackson County Genealogical Society. The Society accepts no advertising for this publication except for notices for other non-profit
groups.
From the Editor
Many of the members of the Jackson County Genealogical Society have been saddened profoundly by the news
of the death of Lawrence Wood. While he was not a member of our Society, he was probably one of the best-known
genealogists in western North Carolina. He was a person who never had to lament about how much easier
this would all have been had he started earlier when knowledgeable family members were still living and able to
tell their stories. He listened, even as a child, and learned from his family, a family group who believed in
holding onto the treasures of the past and learning from them. As we all do, Lawrence had his quirks,
eccentricities, and faults. But nobody can fault the lifelong efforts he made to research genealogies of his own
and other families, and to record his findings to the best of his knowledge. Many have also been enriched by his
generosity and willingness to share his data, materials, and stories. All of us who pursue this hobby (or in some
cases, profession) should be so generous.
Lawrence Edward Wood 193 7-1997
In this last issue for 1997, we continue with the voluminous records of Betty Cope Andrews as she chronicles the
Monteith family, and we offer some results of the serious work of one of our newer members, Sharon Barger
Carnes. Her painstaking hard work with old newspapers has already been of genealogical value to the editor.
Finally, check out the membership list and their families of interest, so that 1998 can be the time that you learn
even more about your roots and connections as you communicate with them. Please respond to the separate letter
and questionnaire, and promise to be temperate with the eggnog this season. For that matter, be temperate in
everything except this consuming interest in genealogy. The happiest, most peaceful holiday to you is our wish,
filled with appreciation for your God, your family, and your friends.

“An American Place:” Noted Environmental Historian Closes Lawrence University 2003-04 Convocation Series
No full textLawrence University will recognize award-winning author and historian William Cronon with an honorary Doctor of Humane Letters degree Tuesday May 25 during the annual Honors Convocation, which closes the 2003-04 series.
Cronon, whose scholarship combines the disciplines of history, geography and environmental studies, will deliver the address “The Portage: History and Memory in the Making of an American Place” at 11:10 a.m. in the Lawrence Memorial Chapel. He also will conduct a question-and-answer session at 2 p.m. in the Lawrence Memorial Union.
The author of two books and editor several others, Cronon, 49, has earned critical acclaim for his writing and research on the ways human communities modify the landscapes in which they live and how people in turn are affected by changing geological, climatological and ecological conditions.
His first book, “Changes in the Land: Indians, Colonists, and the Ecology of New England,” which explored the changes the New England landscape underwent as control of the region shifted from Native Americans to European colonists, was awarded 1984′s Francis Parkman Prize of the Society of American Historians.
His second book, 1991′s “Nature’s Metropolis: Chicago and the Great West,” an examination of Chicago’s relationship to its rural hinterland during the latter half of the 19th century, earned Cronon the Chicago Tribune’s Heartland Prize for the best literary work of non-fiction, the Bancroft Prize for the best work of American history and was one of three nominees for the Pulitzer Prize in history.
In addition, “Nature’s Metropolis” was recognized with the George Perkins Marsh Prize from the American Society for Environmental History and the Charles A. Weyerhaeuser Award from the Forest History Society for the best book of environmental and conservation history.
The Frederick Jackson Turner and Vilas Research Professor of History, Geography and Environmental Studies at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Cronon is currently working on a local history of Frederick Turner’s hometown, Portage, Wis., in which he is exploring ways to integrate environmental and social historical methods with non-traditional narrative literary forms. He is also completing an anthology of first person accounts of past landscapes of the United States and the lives people have lived on them entitled “Working on Life on the American Land: A Commonplace Book.”
Cronon joined the UW-Madison faculty in 1992 after spending more than a decade teaching at Yale University in his hometown of New Haven, Conn. Among numerous academic awards he’s received, Cronon was named a Rhodes Scholar and a Danforth Fellow in 1976, received a $500,000 “genius grant” from the MacArthur Foundation in 1985 and was named the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1995. In addition to UW-Madison, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in history and English, Cronon holds advanced degrees Oxford University in British urban and economic history, and from Yale in American history.
His professional affiliations include serving on the Board of Curators for the Wisconsin Historical Society, the Governing Council of The Wilderness Society and the editorial boards of Environmental History and the Journal of Historical Geograph
