Rozet, Campbell County, Wyoming, and Its Homestead Families (1880 - 1949)

Rozet, Campbell County, Wyoming, and Its Homestead Families (1880 - 1949)

Lorna J. Whisler tells the fascinating story of a small corner of northeastern Wyoming, centered on Rozet in the decades after cattle trails and railroads first reached the area at the end of the 1800s. This is the story of the settler families and the communities they founded in a challenging landscape. Life was not easy in Campbell County a hundred and more years ago. Drought, blizzards, poverty, illness, and isolation took their toll, compounded by the local impacts of global events such as the World Wars, the Great Depression, and the 1918 Influenza Pandemic. Despite everything, rural Campbell County's communities persisted and prospered thanks to the stubborn strength, creative ingenuity, and hard work of its settler families. Whisler's book gives a fine-grained example of how the American West changed following the nineteenth-century Indian Wars and the 1862 Homestead Act. The U.S. government's promise of free land-emptied of its aboriginal population-drew people from the eastern U.S. and far across the Atlantic with the promise of opportunity. Some settlers found opportunity, others moved on, and Rozet remains a reminder and testament of how today's rural Wyoming arose in the early 1900s. Rozet, Campbell County, Wyoming, and Its Homestead Families (1880 - 1949) will deepen your knowledge whether you live in Campbell County or it's simply a place that holds some of your family's past. Whisler presents histories of a long list of family names that will be familiar if you have roots in Campbell County. On one hand, many place names in the county commemorate its settlers, real people who shaped Wyoming's landscape and society. On the other hand, Rozet's early families had to work, learn, play, and worship together to succeed. Names your family might recognize today may be recognizable because of threshing bees, marriages, business ventures, or roundups that happened decades past. Learning about Rozet's past can teach you about your family's past-as well as the broad processes of change that brought modern, rural Wyoming into being over a century ago.

England's Insular Imagining

England's Insular Imagining

Lorna Hutson

Cambridge University Press
2023
sidottu
How have the English conceived of Scotland? Lorna Hutson's book is an essential intervention in the contested narrative of British nationhood. It argues that England deployed a mythical 'British History' in pursuing dominion over its northern neighbour: initially through waging war, and then striving to make the very idea of Scotland vanish in new figurations of sea-sovereignty. The author explores English attempts at conquest in the 1540s, revealing how justifications of overlordship mutated into literary, legal and cartographic ploys to erase Scotland-as-kingdom. Maps, treatises and military propaganda are no less imaginative in their eradicative strategies than river poetry, chorography, allegory, epic, tragedies, history plays and masques. Hutson shows how Spenser's Faerie Queene, Shakespeare's Henry V and King Lear, Plowden's theory of the King's Two Bodies, Camden's Britannia, and the race-making in Jonson's Masque of Blackness are all implicated in England's jurisdictional claim and refusal to acknowledge Scotland as sovereign nation.

Reception Studies: Volume 49

Reception Studies: Volume 49

Lorna Hardwick

Cambridge University Press
2025
pokkari
The texts, images and events of the ancient world have been used both as sources of authority and exploitation in politics, culture and society and as icons of resistance and contest. How classical culture is transplanted into new contexts, how texts are translated and performed and how Greek and Roman values are perceived and used continues to be a force in current debates. The main concepts and explanatory frameworks used in the field are introduced through chapters on reception within antiquity and case studies of more recent receptions from Africa, the Caribbean, Europe and the USA. This revised second edition will be of use to all those interested in the relationship between the arts, culture and society as well as to students and teachers of classical subjects and of literature, drama, film and comparative cultural studies.

Engagements with Postcolonial Literature and Theory

Engagements with Postcolonial Literature and Theory

Lorna Burns

TAYLOR FRANCIS LTD
2026
sidottu
Engagements with Postcolonial Literature and Theory offers a detailed exploration of the debates, theories, texts, and themes that have shaped the evolution of postcolonial literary studies. Encompassing prose, poetry, and drama, this book navigates the history of postcolonial literature and its criticism. Each chapter is framed by a postcolonial author’s own literary ‘engagement’. Case studies on Chinua Achebe, Kamau Brathwaite, Derek Walcott, Ngugi wa Thiong’o, Tsitsi Dangarembga, Junot Díaz, Jean Rhys, Hari Kunzru, Arundhati Roy, and J. M. Coetzee elucidate each chapter’s central concepts and theme: colonial subjects and rebels; nations and nationalism after decolonisation; postcolonial difference; and subaltern representation. In this book, Lorna Burns tracks the evolution of postcolonial theory from anti-colonialism (Albert Memmi and Frantz Fanon) to the poststructuralist first-wave (Edward Said, Gayatri Spivak, and Homi Bhabha), the Marxist counter-response (Aijaz Ahmad and Benita Parry), and, finally, looks ahead to new directions in postcolonial theory. Aimed at students and scholars who are new to postcolonialism, as well as those returning to it for fresh insights and inspiration, this book engages with the complexity of both postcolonial theory and literature to furnish the reader with a fuller understanding of their significance and value, as well as the connections to be forged between.
