Download or read book Creating an American Identity written by Stephanie Kermes and published by Palgrave MacMillan. This book was released on 2008-06-15 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creating an American Identity examines the relationship between regionalism and nationalism in New England between 1789 and 1825. During that period New Englanders and their neighbors in New York and Pennsylvania used trans-Atlantic symbols at the same time as a model and an antithesis in the creation of their own national identity. In inventing their collective identity, Northerners not only excluded Europeans, but also Southerners from their vision of America. Widely used visual representations of New England landscapes, virtues, and people created a strong loyalty to the region. Surprisingly, New Englanders utilized their regionalism to forge an American nationalism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is 1946. World War II is over. As the rest of Europe struggles to rebuild itself, Greece—which had bitterly resisted Nazi occupation—is ripped apart by civil war. Thousands are dead or dying of starvation. In the face of such epic disaster, one Greek athlete takes valiant action. This is the true story of Stylianos Kyriakides, champion Greek runner who against all odds entered the 1946 Boston, Marathon, a race he had lost eight years before. Now Kyriakides ran not just to win, but to wake the world to the plight of his people. Although ravaged by hunger, Kyriakides pushed his wracked body to the limits. Boston doctors urged him to quit. "You will die in the streets," they warned. Fueled by dauntless devotion to his countrymen and bolstered by the love of his wife, the runner persevered and triumphed. But winning the marathon was only the first step. With characteristic grit, Kyriakides remained in the United States long enough to raise money, equipment, and medical supplies for his country. A grateful Greece proclaimed him a hero. Nearly one million welcomed him home. Drawing on interviews and unprecedented access to family photos and papers, the authors vividly chronicle the real-life drama of Kyriakides: a runner who raced not for gold or glory, but for the betterment of his people and the survival of his homeland. From the shadowy Berlin Olympics to the dark days of Nazi Greece and its aftermath, Running with Pheidippides speaks vividly of war and deprivation, of athletic competition and camaraderie, of genuine valor in a world bereft of heroes. "For those of us who were young and Greek-American," recalls former Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis, "his victory in the 1946 Boston Marathon and the response of so many Americans to his pleas for help for his people was one of the most searing experiences of our young lives."
Download or read book Union River written by Paul Marion and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Spanning more than forty years of writing, UNION RIVER takes us across the national landscape and mindscape with poems and sketches that delve into our common experience. This lyrical Americana address combines memory work, ecstatic reports from the field, invented scenes, street voices, blog posts, daily news, and representations of life in these states. Writing in closed and open forms, Marion works the language for the best it can give. He shows us the difference between looking and seeing, between hearing and listening, between knowing and understanding. Our nation is a place of grandeur, pain, constant churn, and regular renewal. Every person makes the democratic republic new each day, for good or bad. Paul Marion wants us to use "America" as a verb, an action word.
Download or read book Cummiskey Alley written by Tom Sexton and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-20 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive collection of Tom Sexton's poems about his hometown of Lowell, Massachusetts, where he grew up after World War II before leaving for military service and higher education. He would settle in Alaska and teach for decades at the University of Alaska, where he co-founded the respected Alaska Quarterly Review. His Lowell poems are lyrical and candid, extracting the innate beauty and tragedy in a working-class mill town down on its luck but full of people with gumption and sometimes incredible optimism. He paints the people, the streetscapes, and the nature of an historic river city, a one-time tribal capital before the label New England and then the archetypal factory city of the American Industrial Revolution before the Civil War, a place that had to been seen by Charles Dickens, Davy Crockett, and young Abe Lincoln, a break-out location for working women who became labor organizers, and eventually a classic post-industrial city passed by when the business titans moved manufacturing to less expensive places. Sexton captures the reality of a hard-luck place without nostalgia and finds the dignity in lives lived within a tight circle. He was able to rise to an upper orbit through service and study, returning to his starting place through poems that offer a priceless gift, a lasting literature for present and future generations.
