Download or read book A Comparative Study of the National First Ladies Library and the Women s Rights National Historical Park written by Lauren Poirrier and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The National First Ladies' Library and the Women's Rights National Historical Park are two very important museums that interpret different aspects of women's history. The National First Ladies' Library, located in Canton, Ohio, interprets the lives of the United States' First Ladies and the roles associated with the position. The Women's Rights National Historical Park, located in Seneca Falls, New York, interprets the first Women's Rights Convention, which took place in 1848, as well as the Declaration of Sentiments, which Elizabeth Cady Stanton presented at the Convention. Both sites offer histories of women from the upper class; however, they tell two different stories and use different approaches for interpretation. One of the main reasons why both museums use different methods of interpretation is rooted in their creation. One woman, Mary Regula, envisioned the National First Ladies' Library. Regula isolated her work from the community and as a result, lost touch with what the public wanted out of the site. On the other hand, the Women's Rights National Historical Park involved the community in its creation. Park historians and staff cooperatively worked together with the community to shape what the park is today. The sites differed drastically in both their creation and intentions, which influenced the interpretive plans used.

Book excerpt: "This catalogue is an introduction to the National First Ladies' Library and the study of First Lady history. The National First Ladies' Library consists of the Saxton-McKinley House and the Education and Research Center. Located in Canton, Ohio, it is a National Historic Site. The chapters on First Lady history and how it serves as a window to women's history, presedential and political history, and also social and cultural history, are intended as introductory overviews. While these chapters support the National First Ladies' Library mission that First Lady history has been an important and undervalued element in the study of American history, they provide only brief summaries of several examples in each category. Exploration and new research into the fuller story of each woman and how they may have affected history are part of the broader intent the National First Ladies' Library hopes to prompt"--Back cover.

Download or read book Jacqueline Kennedy written by Barbara A. Perry and published by University Press of Kansas. This book was released on 2018-03-31 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a mere one thousand days, Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy created an entrancing public persona that has remained intact for more than a half-century. Even now, long after her death in 1994, she remains a figure of enduring—and endearing—interest. Yet, while innumerable books have focused on the legends and gossip surrounding this charismatic figure, Barbara Perry’s is the first to focus largely on Kennedys’ White House years, portraying a First Lady far more complex and enigmatic than previously perceived. Noting how Jackie’s celebrity and devotion to privacy have for years precluded a more serious treatment, Perry’s engaging and well-crafted story illuminates Kennedy’s immeasurable impact on the institution of the First Lady. Perry vividly illustrates the complexities of Jacqueline Bouvier’s marriage to John F. Kennedy, and shows how she transformed herself from a reluctant political wife to an effective, confident presidential partner. Perry is especially illuminating in tracing the First Lady’s mastery of political symbolism and imagery, along with her use of television and state entertainment to disseminate her work to a global audience. By offering the White House as a stage for the arts, Jackie also bolstered the president’s Cold War efforts to portray the United States as the epitome of a free society. From redecorating the White House, to championing Lafayette Square’s preservation, to lending her name to fund-raising for the National Cultural Center, she had a profound impact on the nation’s psyche and cultural life. Meanwhile, her fashionable clothes and glamorous hairdos stood in stark contrast to the dowdiness of her predecessors and the drab appearances of Communist leaders’ spouses. Never before or since have a First Lady (and her husband) sparkled with so much hope and vigor on the stage of American public life. Perry’s deft narrative captures all of that and more, even as it also insightfully depicts Jackie’s struggles to preserve her own identity amid the pressures of an institution she changed forever. Grounded on the author’s painstaking research into previously overlooked or unavailable archives, at the Kennedy Library and elsewhere, as well as interviews with Jacqueline Kennedy’s close associates, Perry’s work expands and enriches our understanding of a remarkable American woman.
