The Incidental Oriental Secretary and Other Tales of Foreign Service

The Incidental Oriental Secretary and Other Tales of Foreign Service

Richard L. Jackson

Hamilton Books
2016
nidottu
This memoir attempts to capture the humor and sheer incongruity of working across cultures in an international career spanning diplomacy and education. Written in a light hearted tone, it also delves into tragic consequences in countries such as Somalia, Libya and Greece. While critical in many respects of US foreign policy, it also hopes to attract adventurous young men and women of today's generation to possible careers in diplomacy. The author uses humor and anecdote to highlight the monumental changes in the world environment and practice of diplomacy in the short space of a single career. The book features cover art and interior sketches by Eliza Jackson.

Black Literature and Humanism in Latin America

Black Literature and Humanism in Latin America

Richard L. Jackson

University of Georgia Press
2008
pokkari
In Black Literature and Humanism in Latin America, Richard L. Jackson explores literary Americanism through writings of black Hispanic authors such as Carlos Guillermo Wilson, Quince Duncan, and Nelson Estupiñán Bass that in many ways provide a microcosm for the larger literature. Jackson traces the roots of Afro-Hispanic literature from the early twentieth-century Afrocriollo movement--the Harlem Renaissance of Latin America--to the fiction and criticism of black Latin Americans today. Black humanism arose from Afro-Hispanics' self-discovery of their own humanity and the realization that over the years they had become not only defenders of threatened cultures but also symbolic guardians of humanity. This humanist tradition had enabled writers such as Manuel Zapata Olivella to write of a Latin America "from below" the slave-ship deck and "from inside" the mind of Africa.Though many writers have adopted black literary models in their quest for a "poetry of sources, of fundamental human values," Jackson demonstrates that literature about blacks by blacks themselves is clearly separate from, yet instrumental to, these other works. Relating the vision of Latin American blacks not only to other Latin American writers but also to North American literary critics such as Eugene Goodheart and John Gardner, Jackson stresses the universal power of resisting oppression and injustice through the language of humanism.

The Rules

The Rules

Richard L. Jackson

Rosedog Books

The Rules is a list of things those starting out in their life's work need to know. They evolved from discussions the author had with undergraduate college seniors and fraternity men using lessons from personal experiences. There were many favorable responses and comments that no one tells them these things. The author decided a need did exist to make the information available and started writing The Rules. About the Author Richard L. Jackson was born May 6, 1930 in Chicago. In 1937 the family moved to Delaware, Ohio, in the heart of the Midwest. Here the author was raised in the environment of small town and Midwest middle-class values. He expanded and broadened those experiences by spending five years in military service, first as an army private in the occupation of Japan and later as an Air Force Lieutenant in the occupation of Germany. In 1951 Jackson married Janet Wilson, the girl he'd known since the second grade. After a BA degree in accounting and a MA degree in sociology, the author started employment in 1957 at the personnel department of a Union Carbide plant. With a combination of skills, personality, luck, and being at the right place at the right time, the author moved through Union Carbide as an Assistant Superintendant to Rockwell International as Director, to Duke University as Assistant Vice President to Winchester Medical Center as Vice President to St. John's Regional Medical Center where, as Senior Vice President, he retired in 1987. Jackson and his wife moved back home to Delaware, Ohio. Since then the author has done consulting work with the city of Delaware, the city school system, served on the board of the City Council for Older Adults, an elder in his church, and Grand Chapter Advisor for his college fraternity. Jackson and his wife have traveled the world. They have five sons, thirteen grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren.

University of Utah Press,U.S.
2024
sidottu
This is the first biography of Dale L. Morgan, preeminent historian of the Latter Day Saints, the fur trade, and the trails of the American West. The book explores how, despite personal struggles, Morgan remained committed to interpreting the past on the strength of documentary evidence, leaving a legacy to inspire contemporary historians. Connecting Morgan’s life with some of the broad cultural changes that shaped his experiences, this book engages with the methodological shifts that coincided with his career: the mid-twentieth-century collision of interpretations within Latter Day Saint history and the development of a descriptive, scholarly approach to that history. Morgan’s work signaled the start of new ways of understanding, studying, and retelling history, and he motivated a generation of historians from the 1930s to the 1970s to transform their historical approaches. Sounding board, mentor, and close friend to Nels Anderson, Leonard Arrington, Fawn Brodie, Juanita Brooks, Bernard DeVoto, and Wallace Stegner, Dale Morgan is the common factor linking this influential generation of mid-twentieth-century historians of western America.
