Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The family, Cynthia Patterson demonstrates, played a key role in the political changes that mark the history of ancient Greece. From the archaic society portrayed in Homer and Hesiod to the Hellenistic age, the private world of the family and household was integral with and essential to the civic realm. Early Greek society was rooted not in clans but in individual households, and a man's or woman's place in the larger community was determined by relationships within those households. The development of the city-state did not result in loss of the family's power and authority, Patterson argues; rather, the protection of household relationships was an important element of early public law. The interaction of civic and family concerns in classical Athens is neatly articulated by the examples of marriage and adultery laws. In law courts and in theater performances, violation of marital relationships was presented as a public danger, the adulterer as a sexual thief. This is an understanding that fits the Athenian concept of the city as the highest form of family. The suppression of the cities with the ascendancy of Alexander's empire led to a new resolution of the relationship between public and private authority: the concept of a community of households, which is clearly exemplified in Menander's plays. Undercutting common interpretations of Greek experience as evolving from clan to patriarchal state, Patterson's insightful analysis sheds new light on the role of men and women in Greek culture.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Patterson Family: A Geneological History Staying there about two years they went to a farm in Washington county, same state, where they lived eight or nine years. While on this farm their youngest daughter Rebecca was born and their eldest daughter Jane was married to William Cassidy. In the spring of 1819 John Patterson entered a farm in Harrison township, Carroll-co., Ohio, then Stark-co., drove a stake and returned to his home in Pennsylvania. He then took his two sons - Robert, aged 18, and John, aged 16 - across the river to Steubenville, and from there they went alone on foot to Centerville, now Carrollton. From the inn where their father had arranged for their lodging and board they followed a deer path and stopped at the deer lick, which marked the place of their future home. In one week's time, with the use of two axes and an augur, they built a cabin and straightway went to clearing the land. Then in the fall of 1819 John and Mary Patterson, and the others of the family, joined the two sons in their new home. They built a log cabin on the east side of the farm. John Patterson died September 25, 1827. On March 8, 1833, John and Robert Patterson entered into an agreement that at their mother's death John Patterson would give Robert Patterson a deed for his share of the farm, the east half, and should receive from Robert Patterson as consideration money $400.

Download or read book The Seed of Sally Good n written by Ruth Polk Patterson and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 1996-10-17 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " Spencer Polk was born of an African-Indian slave woman known as Sally, and her master, Taylor Polk, a descendant of one of America's first families and one of the earliest white settlers in the Arkansas Territory. A favored slave, Spencer Polk became a prosperous farmer and landowner in southwestern Arkansas and the founder of a numerous and energetic family. Since emancipation the family homestead he built on Muddy Fork Creek has housed succeeding generations and has drawn back those who sought their fortunes elsewhere. In this new paperback edition, Ruth Polk Patterson, a granddaughter of Spencer Polk who was born and raised in the log house he built, traces the life of Polk and his family from his birth in 1833 to the present generation. The skillful blending of folklore, history, and personal insight makes The Seed of Sally Good'n an excellent contribution to the long neglected history of middle-class African Americans.
