Cultural Nationalism in Colonial Korea, 1920-1925

Cultural Nationalism in Colonial Korea, 1920-1925

Michael Robinson

University of Washington Press
2014
pokkari
By studying the early splits within Korean nationalism, Michael Robinson shows that the issues faced by Korean nationalists during the Japanese colonial period were complex and enduring. In doing so, Robinson, in this classic text, provides a new context with which to analyze the difficult issues of political identity and national unity that remain central to contemporary Korean politics.

Death and Dying in the Working Class, 1865-1920

Death and Dying in the Working Class, 1865-1920

Michael K. Rosenow

University of Illinois Press
2015
sidottu
Michael K. Rosenow investigates working people's beliefs, rituals of dying, and the politics of death by honing in on three overarching questions: How did workers, their families, and their communities experience death? Did various identities of class, race, gender, and religion coalesce to form distinct cultures of death for working people? And how did people's attitudes toward death reflect notions of who mattered in U.S. society? Drawing from an eclectic array of sources ranging from Andrew Carnegie to grave markers in Chicago's potter's field, Rosenow portrays the complex political, social, and cultural relationships that fueled the United States' industrial ascent. The result is an undertaking that adds emotional depth to existing history while challenging our understanding of modes of cultural transmission.

The Idea of the American South, 1920-1941

The Idea of the American South, 1920-1941

Michael O'Brien

Johns Hopkins University Press
2020
pokkari
Originally published in 1979. The idea of the "South" has its roots in Romanticism and American culture of the nineteenth century. This study by Michael O'Brien analyzes how the idea of a unique Southern consciousness endured into the twentieth century and how it affected the lives of prominent white Southern intellectuals. Individual chapters treat Howard Odum, John Donald Wade, John Crowe Ransom, Allen Tate, Frank Owsley, and Donald Davidson. The chapters trace each man's growing need for the idea of the South—how each defined it and how far each was able to sustain the idea as an element of social analysis. The Idea of the American South moves the debate over Southern identity from speculative essays about the "central theme" of Southern history and, by implication, past the restricted perception that race relations are a sufficient key to understanding the history of Southern identity.

The Servants' Church: Faith Evangelical Free Church, 1920-2020

The Servants' Church: Faith Evangelical Free Church, 1920-2020

Michael J. Young

Faith Evangelical Free Church
2020
sidottu
In the summer of 1872 two young Norwegian girls arrived in the quiet, historic hamlet of Concord Massachusetts to take positions as domestic servants. Over the years many more men and women arrived, becoming domestic servants and farm laborers. The wife of a farmer who employed Norwegians took an interest in their spiritual welfare, learned their language and began teaching a Norwegian Sunday School class in 1879. From these humble beginnings a new church was born in 1893, hosted by the Trinitarian Congregational Church as its Scandinavian Branch. In 1920 they dedicated their own building and became the Norwegian Zion Free Church of Concord. In 1975 they erected a new building in nearby Acton and worship today under the name Faith Evangelical Free Church.This account was created in celebration of the 100th anniversary of the church's founding as an independent congregation. It chronicles the experiences of these immigrants as they sought to be exemplary American citizens, while celebrating their Norwegian heritage and recognizing that their true citizenship was in heaven, not on earth. The first part describes the events and people who gave so much in service to their community and congregation. The second part acknowledges the many people and organizations that helped bring their dreams to fruition. The third part takes and unflinching look at the church through the years to draw lessons for the future from the successes and missteps of the past.

An Economic and Social History of the Netherlands, 1800–1920

An Economic and Social History of the Netherlands, 1800–1920

Michael Wintle

Cambridge University Press
2007
pokkari
An Economic and Social History of the Netherlands, 1800–1920 provides a comprehensive account of Dutch history from the late eighteenth to the early twentieth century, examining population and health, the economy, and socio-political history. The Dutch experience in this period is fascinating and instructive: the country saw extremely rapid population growth, awesome death rates, staggering fertility, some of the fastest economic growth in the world, a uniquely large and efficient service sector, a vast and profitable overseas empire, characteristic 'pillarization', and relative tolerance. Michael Wintle also examines the lives of ordinary people: what they ate, how much they earned, what they thought about public affairs, and how they wooed and wed. This book will be of central importance to Dutch specialists, as well as European historians more generally.
