Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Between 1890 and 1930, Salt Lake City experienced some of the most rapid and profound changes of any city in U.S. history. In its pioneer period, from the beginning of white settlement in 1847 to about 1890, the city struggled against outside pressures to maintain its identity as a self-sufficient Mormon utopian community, with its theocratic government, agricultural economy, and polygamous society. But by the turn of the 20th century, Mormonism had largely abandoned those features, and Salt Lake City was becoming like most other American cities as it embraced capitalism, the evolution of transportation and industry, ethnic and cultural diversity, women's rights, and modern entertainment.

Download or read book South Temple Street Landmarks Salt Lake City s First Historic District written by Bim Oliver and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2017 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the earliest days of settlement, South Temple was Salt Lake's most prestigious street. In 1857, William Staines built the Devereaux House, Salt Lake's first of many mansions. The once-bustling Union Pacific Depot eventually found itself increasingly isolated. Downtown's "gleaming copper landmark" overcame numerous hurdles before its construction was finally finished, and the Steiner American Building helped usher in acceptance of Modernist architecture. Evolving to reflect its continued prominence, in 1975, the thoroughfare's core became the city's first local historic district, and in 1982, it made the National Register of Historic Places. Author and historian Bim Oliver celebrates the changing landmarks along these famous eighteen blocks.

Book excerpt: From cathedrals to pioneer gambling halls, Mormon ward houses to gentile saloons, fraternal lodges to brothels, Salt Lake City Underfoot reveals the diverse heritage of one of the most colorful outposts in America's West. The city was a refuge for outlaws, vigilantes, fortune seekers, scare artists, and racketeers, all rubbing shoulders with local polygamist suffragists, mule-skinning prophets, and playboy industrialists -- they were all here. In this collection of self-guided walking and bi-cycling tours adaptable to everyone's interests and pace, one can pick and choose from among the lavish mansions of mining and railroad millionaires along prestigious Brigham Street to the simple immigrant cottages in the Marmalade District; from downtown parks to forgotten pioneer cemeteries; or, one can take in the city's growing nightlife. Mark Angus takes readers beyond the regular tourist sites and provides answers to the paradoxes surrounding this rather enigmatic metropolis.

Download or read book Seeing Things written by Mason Kamana Allred and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2023-02-14 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this theoretically rich work, Mason Kamana Allred unearths the ways Mormons have employed a wide range of technologies to translate events, beliefs, anxieties, and hopes into reproducible experiences that contribute to the growth of their religious systems of meaning. Drawing on methods from cultural history, media studies, and religious studies, Allred focuses specifically on technologies of vision that have shaped Mormonism as a culture of seeing. These technologies, he argues, were as essential to the making of Mormonism as the humans who received, interpreted, and practiced their faith. While Mormons' uses of television and the internet are recent examples of the tradition's use of visual technology, Allred excavates older practices and technologies for negotiating the spirit, such as panorama displays and magic lantern shows. Fusing media theory with feminist new materialism, he employs media archaeology to examine Mormons' ways of performing distinctions, beholding as a way to engender radical visions, and standardizing vision to effect assimilation. Allred's analysis reveals Mormonism as always materially mediated and argues that religious history is likewise inherently entangled with media.
