This book was released on 2017-01-09 with total page 902 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Patriotic Addresses in America and England, From 1850 to 1885: On Slavery, the Civil War, and the Development of Civil Liberty in the United States The Addresses gathered in this volume come from various sources. Some are reprinted from the files of The Independent, in Whose columns they originally appeared. The ser mons delivered just before the war and during its first two years are taken from a volume of Mr. Beecher's discourses, entitled Freedom and War, issued under the careful editorship of Mr. Frederic Beecher Perkins in 1863. The speeches in England are from the te ports published by the Union and Emancipation Society, Manchester, England, in 1864. Of that edition - the only authorized one ever before published - the editor of the present work, at Mr. Beecher's request and with his cooperation, in 1872 began a revision, for the mak ing of some such volume as is here gathered; but other matters intervened and the project lay in abeyance, until the sad event of Mr. Beecher's death suggested a more complete collection of his political contributions than that earlier day could have furnished. The dis courses since the war are reprinted from the reports in Plymouth Pulpit, and some of the addresses have been gathered from contemporary newspaper reports. The one before the Society of the Army of the Potomac is from the published minutes of that body. In all cases effort has been made to secure the best reports of his spoken addresses. Those delivered in America were nearly all taken down by Mr. T. J. Ellin wood, who from about the year 1858 was Mr. Beecher's authorized stenographer, not only in all church meetings but on public occasions when there was especial desire for a full record; and to his fidelity and trained accu racy we owe very much of the great legacy to be found in Mr. Beecher's words.

Download or read book Writing the Brain written by Stefan Schöberlein and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-09-19 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the nineteenth century, American and British culture experienced an explosion of interest in writings about the brain. The years between 1800 and 1880 are often described as the emergence of modern neuroscience, with new areas of the brain being discovered and named. Naming was quickly followed by a drive to hypothesize functioning, a process that suggested thinking itself may be a mere physiological act. In Writing the Brain, Stefan Schöberlein tracks how literature encountered such novel, scientific theories of cognition-and how it, in turn, shaped scientific thinking. Before the era of modern psychology, a heterogeneous group of alienists, self-help gurus, and anatomists proposed that the structure of the brain could be used to explain how the mind worked. Suddenly, nineteenth-century readers and writers had to contend with the idea that qualities once ascribed to disembodied souls may arise from a mere lump of cranial matter. In a period when scientists and literary writers frequently published in the same periodicals, the ensuing debate over the material mind was a public one. Writing the Brain demonstrates, by examining several canonical works and textual rediscoveries, that these exchanges not only influenced how poets and novelists fictionalized the mind but also how scientists thought and talked about their discoveries. From George Combe to Charles Dickens, from Emily Dickinson to Pliny Earle, from Benjamin Rush to Alfred Tennyson, 1800s debated what it means to have or, rather, be a brain.

Download or read book Puritan Spirits in the Abolitionist Imagination written by Kenyon Gradert and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2020-04-10 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Puritans of popular memory are dour figures, characterized by humorless toil at best and witch trials at worst. “Puritan” is an insult reserved for prudes, prigs, or oppressors. Antebellum American abolitionists, however, would be shocked to hear this. They fervently embraced the idea that Puritans were in fact pioneers of revolutionary dissent and invoked their name and ideas as part of their antislavery crusade. Puritan Spirits in the Abolitionist Imagination reveals how the leaders of the nineteenth-century abolitionist movement—from landmark figures like Ralph Waldo Emerson to scores of lesser-known writers and orators—drew upon the Puritan tradition to shape their politics and personae. In a striking instance of selective memory, reimagined aspects of Puritan history proved to be potent catalysts for abolitionist minds. Black writers lauded slave rebels as new Puritan soldiers, female antislavery militias in Kansas were cast as modern Pilgrims, and a direct lineage of radical democracy was traced from these early New Englanders through the American and French Revolutions to the abolitionist movement, deemed a “Second Reformation” by some. Kenyon Gradert recovers a striking influence on abolitionism and recasts our understanding of puritanism, often seen as a strictly conservative ideology, averse to the worldly rebellion demanded by abolitionists.
