Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plymouth Scrap Book: The Oldest Original Documents Extant in Plymouth Archives, Printed Verbatim, Some Reproduced Hardly a more interesting and varied collection of literary miscellany exists than that preserved by an unknown recorder of deeds in The Plymouth Scrap Book. In this collection have been preserved the odds and ends of the original Plymouth Colony records remaining after many years of neglect, indifference and abuse had reduced the valued archives, to a tattered and fragmentary remainder. The date of the collection itself is unknown: the dates of the documents themselves are between 1636 and 1693. They therefore embrace the formative period of the Colony, beginning some sixteen years after its foundation. What is here presented is a verbatim transcript of the original Scrap Book, itself well known to antiquarians. As distinguished from "The Records of Plymouth Colony," published by the State of Massachusetts in 1855, there is offered here a modern transcript of the only original records now extant and pertaining to the lives and times of those commonly credited with the entire credit for the foundation of "New England." Its place in the great mass of literature concerning the early colonial life of North America, therefore, is that of a practical replica, valuable to students of history and genealogy as a ready reference and a means of abridging the tremendously difficult task of deciphering the characteristic but obscure chirography of the "Puritans." To those interested in early colonial life and customs, the Scrap Book affords a fund of useful lore. Finally, in the rough and ready attempts at formulating the more vital transactions of pioneer life may be traced, the growing need for a new dominion in civil, as well as in religious affairs. Thus in a remote way, these same documents faintly echo the commencement of the transition from "separatism" to that still more complete independence of the democracy that was to be established by a succeeding generation. This transcript, with plated reproductions of some of the originals, is published posthumously, manuscript and photographs having been in the hands of the printer at the time of the compiler's death. The book had been planned as an instructive and more or less popular feature in connection with the proposed tercentenary celebration of the landing of the Pilgrims. The Historical Sketch and Review of Bradford's History are, therefore, explained. They are included in perpetuation of the original plan and in the belief that their strong controversial flavor adds to the value of the collection through perpetuating the argumentative atmosphere that surrounds all antiquarian lore.

Download or read book Memory s Nation written by John Seelye and published by Univ of North Carolina Press. This book was released on 2000-11-09 with total page 720 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long celebrated as a symbol of the country's origins, Plymouth Rock no longer receives much national attention. In fact, historians now generally agree that the Pilgrims' storied landing on the Rock never actually took place--the tradition having emerged more than a century after the arrival of the Mayflower. In Memory's Nation, however, John Seelye is not interested in the factual truth of the landing. He argues that what truly gives Plymouth Rock its significance is more than two centuries of oratorical, literary, and artistic celebrations of the Pilgrims' arrival. Seelye traces how different political, religious, and social groups used the image of the Rock on behalf of their own specific causes and ideologies. Drawing on a wealth of speeches, paintings, and popular illustrations, he shows how Plymouth Rock changed in meaning over the years, beginning as a symbol of freedom evoked in patriotic sermons at the start of the Revolution and eventually becoming an icon of exclusion during the 1920s.

Book Some of My Lives

Download or read book Some of My Lives written by Rosamond Bernier and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2011-10-11 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rosamond Bernier has lived an unusually full life—remarkable for its vividness and diversity of experience—and she has known many (one is tempted to say all) of the greatest artists and composers of the twentieth century. In Some of My Lives, Bernier has made a kind of literary scrapbook from an extraordinary array of writings, ranging from diary entries to her many contributions to the art journal L'OEIL, which she cofounded in 1955. The result is a multifaceted self-portrait of a life informed and surrounded by the arts. Through the stories of her encounters with some of the twentieth century's great artists and composers—including Pablo Picasso, Leonard Bernstein, Max Ernst, Aaron Copeland, Malcolm Lowry, and Karl Lagerfeld—we come to understand the sheer richness of Bernier's experiences, interactions, and memories. The result is pithy, hilarious, and wise—a richly rewarding chronicle of many lives fully lived.

Book The World of Plymouth Plantation

Download or read book The World of Plymouth Plantation written by Carla Gardina Pestana and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2020-10-06 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intimate look inside Plymouth Plantation that goes beyond familiar founding myths to portray real life in the settlement—the hard work, small joys, and deep connections to others beyond the shores of Cape Cod Bay. The English settlement at Plymouth has usually been seen in isolation. Indeed, the colonists gain our admiration in part because we envision them arriving on a desolate, frozen shore, far from assistance and forced to endure a deadly first winter alone. Yet Plymouth was, from its first year, a place connected to other places. Going beyond the tales we learned from schoolbooks, Carla Gardina Pestana offers an illuminating account of life in Plymouth Plantation. The colony was embedded in a network of trade and sociability. The Wampanoag, whose abandoned village the new arrivals used for their first settlement, were the first among many people the English encountered and upon whom they came to rely. The colonists interacted with fishermen, merchants, investors, and numerous others who passed through the region. Plymouth was thereby linked to England, Europe, the Caribbean, Virginia, the American interior, and the coastal ports of West Africa. Pestana also draws out many colorful stories—of stolen red stockings, a teenager playing with gunpowder aboard ship, the gift of a chicken hurried through the woods to a sickbed. These moments speak intimately of the early North American experience beyond familiar events like the first Thanksgiving. On the 400th anniversary of the Mayflower landing and the establishment of the settlement, The World of Plymouth Plantation recovers the sense of real life there and sets the colony properly within global history.
