Excerpt from Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 38: May 1942 No one could possibly receive the honor I am having at your hands tonight without being greatly touched by it even though he knows full well that his accomplishments are being greatly over/rated. Let me, then, thank you most heartily for your mistake and pray that you may never dis' cover it but rather die in the faith. I suspect, however, that some among you know the truth already and that probably accounts for the fact that I have received the official injunction not to be too serious in making my reply and if possible to put in a touch of humor.

Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 38: November 1941 (Classic Reprint) by Carroll K. Shaw Pdf

Excerpt from Oberlin Alumni Magazine, Vol. 38: November 1941 Time permits me only to mention that I spent many def lightful weeks in Cambridge, entranced by the beauty of the place and fascinated by the students fluttering about on bicycles in their tattered old gowns. I believe that only one college in Cambridge has been hit by a bomb and so far as I know the damage was not extensive. Oxford has entirely escaped so far. You have all heard of the English schoolmaster who recited the lines, Oh to be in England now that April's here to a class of small children and asked who wrote them. A small boy responded gleefully that he knew. It was Hitler. A year ago I was saying in agony of mind Oh, to be in Oberlin now that September's here. Neither Hitler nor I obtained our objectives. There were too many diplo' mats and government officials ahead of me for seats on the plane to Lisbon. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Women Artists of the Harlem Renaissance by Amy Helene Kirschke Pdf

Women artists of the Harlem Renaissance dealt with issues that were unique to both their gender and their race. They experienced racial prejudice, which limited their ability to obtain training and to be taken seriously as working artists. They also encountered prevailing sexism, often an even more serious barrier. Including seventy-two black and white illustrations, this book chronicles the challenges of women artists, who are in some cases unknown to the general public, and places their achievements in the artistic and cultural context of early twentieth-century America. Contributors to this first book on the women artists of the Harlem Renaissance proclaim the legacy of Edmonia Lewis, Meta Vaux Warrick Fuller, Augusta Savage, Selma Burke, Elizabeth Prophet, Lois Maillou Jones, Elizabeth Catlett, and many other painters, sculptors, and printmakers. In a time of more rigid gender roles, women artists faced the added struggle of raising families and attempting to gain support and encouragement from their often-reluctant spouses in order to pursue their art. They also confronted the challenge of convincing their fellow male artists that they, too, should be seen as important contributors to the artistic innovation of the era.

Precedented Environmental Futures by Colin Porteous Pdf

This book addresses the built environment through the lens of environmental architecture, and in a holistic manner. It moves gradually from psychophysiology and thinking-doing-feeling modalities, through environmental criteria to environmental modulation, concluding with a debate around mitigation and adaptation. Much use is made of re-interpreting past quotations seen as relevant for environmental architecture. No definitive conclusions are reached, but rather broad discursive messages are offered. The text will have lasting luminance for new generations involved with the built environment.

John Todd and the Underground Railroad by James Patrick Morgans Pdf

Born November 10, 1818, John Todd grew up in the rural area surrounding Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The most formative experience of his life was attending college in Oberlin, Ohio. A one-of-a-kind educational institution, Oberlin College was fully integrated--allowing men and women, black and white, to attend the same classes--at a time when the entire country was in a racial upheaval. As a result, Oberlin turned out a group of men and women almost devoid of racial prejudice. It was from this pool of graduates that many of the founders of Tabor, Iowa, were drawn. They were determined to found an Oberlin-like college in the westernmost territory of the United States, so it was no surprise that this group quickly became active in the Underground Railroad and other abolitionist activities. This biography details the life of the Reverend John Todd and presents the story of the Underground Railroad Station in Tabor. With the life of Todd as a common thread, the book explores how the station began and the noble purposes behind its birth. From the beginning of Todd's career at Oberlin College, the book follows him from an unsatisfying first pastorate to the site of his life's work in Tabor, where he would provide spiritual guidance and leadership, along with friend George Gaston, for the settlement. The work covers the prewar construction of the Tabor Literary Institute, which was beset by financial and administrative difficulties from the beginning. With a singleness of purpose spurred on by Todd and Gaston, the residents of Tabor joined in the abolitionist movement through participation not only in the Underground Railroad but in the Jim Lane Trail and Kansas Free State Movement as well. John Brown was in and out of Tabor on many occasions, bringing escaped slaves with him. Todd's service in the Union Army and jubilation with the Federal victory are also discussed. An appendix contains various letters and documents pertaining to the Todd family, the Underground Railroad and other abolitionist activities.
