Excerpt: ...ox escapes; and of cpurse his end of the yoke falls down to the ground. The boys stopped the steers and got them together again at the side of the road, just as I came up, and they were trying to yoke up again the one that had got away. The smallest boy was holding up the bow in its place, and the other, who Was considerably larger, was trying to put in the pin; but it seems that the small boy did not hold it up quite high enough, for the other called out to him, in a very loud and angry, and very imperious tone, " ' Why don't you hold up that bow, you fool?' " I looked.out at him as I was passing, and said, ' Keep good-natured, my boy; the beauty of breaking steers is to keep good-natured.'" " What did he say to that?" asked Marco. " I don't know," replied Forester; "he stared at me very earnestly while I was saying it, but the moment that I finished my sentence, I was just opposite to him, and instantly afterwards the side of my chaise advancing, cut off the whole group from my view, so that I could not even see how he looked." Marco seemed quite interested in this story, and then he wanted Forester to tell him of some other scenes which were witnessed in travelling in the country. " A short time after this, as I was going along, I saw a red building by the side of the road, which looked a little like a school-house, but I suppose it was a town-house." " What is a town-house? " asked Marco. " It corresponds to the City Hall in New York," replied Forester. " But I will explain that to you some other time. In front of this town-house was a company of soldiers in the road. They were marching towards me in a broad column, which filled up the road entirely. Presently they halted and remained as they were, occupying the whole road. I did not see how...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A panoramic explanation of "civic tourism" and the shaping of a national identity At the same time a reading of Kenneth Burke and of tourist landscapes in America, Gregory Clark's new study explores the rhetorical power connected with American tourism. Looking specifically at a time when citizens of the United States first took to rail and then highway to become sightseers in their own country, Clark traces the rhetorical function of a wide-ranging set of tourist experiences. He explores how the symbolic experiences Americans share as tourists have helped residents of a vast and diverse nation adopt a national identity. In doing so he suggests that the rhetorical power of a national culture is wielded not only by public discourse but also by public experiences. Clark examines places in the American landscape that have facilitated such experiences, including New York City, Shaker villages, Yellowstone National Park, the Lincoln Highway, San Francisco's 1915 Panama-Pacific International Exposition, and the Grand Canyon. He examines the rhetorical power of these sites to transform private individuals into public citizens, and he evaluates a national culture that teaches Americans to experience certain places as potent symbols of national community. Invoking Burke's concept of "identification" to explain such rhetorical encounters, Clark considers Burke's lifelong study of symbols—linguistic and otherwise—and their place in the construction and transformation of individual identity. Clark turns to Burke's work to expand our awareness of the rhetorical resources that lead individuals within a community to adopt a collective identity, and he considers the implications of nineteenth- and twentieth-century tourism for both visual rhetoric and the rhetoric of display.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stick ball, stoop sitting, pickle barrel colloquys: The neighborhood occupies a warm place in our cultural memory—a place that Kenneth A. Scherzer contends may have more to do with ideology and nostalgia than with historical accuracy. In this remarkably detailed analysis of neighborhood life in New York City between 1830 and 1875, Scherzer gives the neighborhood its due as a complex, richly textured social phenomenon and helps to clarify its role in the evolution of cities. After a critical examination of recent historical renderings of neighborhood life, Scherzer focuses on the ecological, symbolic, and social aspects of nineteenth-century community life in New York City. Employing a wide array of sources, from census reports and church records to police blotters and brothel guides, he documents the complex composition of neighborhoods that defy simple categorization by class or ethnicity. From his account, the New York City neighborhood emerges as a community in flux, born out of the chaos of May Day, the traditional moving day. The fluid geography and heterogeneity of these neighborhoods kept most city residents from developing strong local attachments. Scherzer shows how such weak spatial consciousness, along with the fast pace of residential change, diminished the community function of the neighborhood. New Yorkers, he suggests, relied instead upon the "unbounded community," a collection of friends and social relations that extended throughout the city. With pointed argument and weighty evidence, The Unbounded Community replaces the neighborhood of nostalgia with a broader, multifaceted conception of community life. Depicting the neighborhood in its full scope and diversity, the book will enhance future forays into urban history.
