Doowop

Doowop

Robert Pruter

University of Illinois Press
1997
nidottu
Robert Pruter's classic look at black doowop in the Windy City moves from street corners to South Side clubs to the studios at Chess Records to recapture the doowop scene of the 1950s. Pruter combines long-lost material from fanzines to the Chicago Defender with in-depth interviews to chronicle legendary African American vocal groups like the Flamingos, the Moonglows, the Spaniels, and the El Dorados. But Pruter also delves into the neighborhood scene that produced the likes of the Quintones and Five Chimes, and returns non-recording acts to their rightful place in Chicago music history. Rich with detail and including an irreplaceable discography, Doowop offers doowop obsessives and fans of early rock 'n' roll and R&B a must-have look at the genre.

Modern Women and Sports in Interwar Chicago

Modern Women and Sports in Interwar Chicago

Robert Pruter

SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY PRESS
2025
sidottu
Between World War I and World War II, women flocked to Chicago’s parks, playgrounds, and clubs, becoming enthusiastic participants, players, and fans of the games of the time. Robert Pruter’s Modern Women and Sports in Interwar Chicago; 1918–1941, examines how the Windy City became home to advancements in women’s track and field, swimming, basketball, golf, speed skating, and softball. As a work of sport and urban history, Pruter’s text situates the vibrant world of women’s athletics within the context of interwar Chicago’s new infrastructure and support from its religious and cultural institutions, newspapers, and industrial and retail firms. Woven into this historical analysis are biographies of individual athletes, including Edith Cummings, the 1920s golf star who inspired F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Tidye Pickett, the first African American woman to compete in the Olympic Games. Modern Women and Sports in Interwar Chicago provides a detailed look at developments in the city, the rise of women’s sporting culture, and the lives and social contexts of the athletes who navigated gender norms while embracing more inclusive recreation and competition.

Give 'Em Soul, Richard!

Give 'Em Soul, Richard!

Richard E. Stamz; Robert Pruter

University of Illinois Press
2010
sidottu
As either observer or participant, radio deejay and political activist Richard E. Stamz witnessed every significant period in the history of blues and jazz in the last century. From performing first-hand as a minstrel in the 1920s to broadcasting Negro League baseball games in a converted 1934 Chrysler to breaking into Chicago radio and activist politics and hosting his own television variety show, the remarkable story of his life also is a window into milestones of African American history throughout the twentieth century.Dominating the airwaves with his radio show "Open the Door, Richard" on WGES in Chicago, Stamz cultivated friendships with countless music legends, including Willie Dixon, Sonny Boy Williamson, Little Walter, Howlin' Wolf, Memphis Slim, and Leonard Chess. The pioneering Chicago broadcaster and activist known as "The Crown Prince of Soul" died in 2007 at the age of 101, but not before he related the details of his life and career to college professor Patrick A. Roberts. Give 'Em Soul, Richard! surrounds Stamz's memories of race records, juke joints, and political action in Chicago's Englewood neighborhood with insights on the larger historical trends that were unfolding around him in radio and American history. Narrated by Stamz, this entertaining and insightful chronicle includes commentary by Roberts as well as reflections on the unlikely friendship and collaboration between a black radio legend and a white academic that resulted in one of the few existing first-hand accounts of Chicago's post-war radio scene.

Covenants And Kingdoms: A Biblical Challenge to Covenant Theology, Preterism, and Amillennialism.

Covenants And Kingdoms: A Biblical Challenge to Covenant Theology, Preterism, and Amillennialism.

Robert C. Juneau

Independently Published
2020
nidottu
This book is a challenge to many of the staunchly held beliefs within Christendom, namely covenant theology, pretersism, and millennialism. As a dispensationalist, I take issue with much of what has been taught over the centuries. The Reformation brought us out of the Catholic stronghold, but I contend that not enough change was made. Dispensational theology began to emerge in the early 19th century. This was the beginning of further reform, but still, much more reform was needed. In the late 19th century and throughout the 20th century, more and more of the long held beliefs concerning Israel, the kingdom of God, and end-time events were emerging. Today, through an advanced dispensational hermeneutic, much progress has been made in Biblical understanding. So much so that many of the centuries old ideas no longer hold up to scrutiny as a viable means to knowing what God would have us know from the book He saw fit to provide for us.

In the novel's Preface, the Author states: "In a few short words, the content of the book is this: A boy dedicates himself to the clerical profession with the fire of childlike enthusiasm, the youth goes astray in his profession, and the man, 'because not all flowering dreams ripened, ' has the notion of giving it up and 'fleeing to the desert.' Yet Heaven has decided otherwise. With resignation he comes back to himself and begins again to believe in his calling. Besides this, everything which is presented in the book belongs partly to the characteristics of the hero appearing in it, partly to the characteristics of our time chiefly with regard to religious, ecclesiastical, and especially clerical matters."

Das fiktive Dokudrama "Robert" ist ein Versuch, die Geschehnisse des Badeunfalls meines Bruders in Erinnerung zu rufen und dadurch sein Ged chtnis zu bewahren. Die erz hlerische Dokumentation will eintauchen in das kurze Leben Roberts (1937-1944), in die damalige Zeit (Drittes Reich) und damit auch in das furchtbare Kriegsjahr 1944, in dem sich der Badeunfall ereignet hatte. Mit den sp rlich vorhandenen Fakten soll der nicht restlos aufgekl rte Ertrinkungstod des Bruders aufge- und verarbeitet werden.
