Abstract:

The article analyzes the image of America created by S.A. Esenin after his trip to the West with I. Duncan in the essay “Iron Mirgorod” (1923) and offers a comprehensive analysis of the poetics and the main sources of his text. Esenin was the first Soviet poet to visit America and create an essay about it, taking into account the rich literary tradition and his own vivid impressions. During his four month stay in America the poet lived in the New York City and visited 14 cities, in 11 states: Baltimore, Boston, Detroit, Indianapolis, Kansas City, St. Louis, Cleveland, Toledo, Toronto, Louisvil

Abstract:

Brutalist architecture, popularized in Britain in the late 1950s and heralded as a progressive form of Modernism in the United States until the 1970s, now presents a conundrum to preservationists as it ages. Once critically acclaimed, many Brutalist buildings have lost their appeal over time. The unpolished materials have proven unpopular with many who live and work in these structures, and key examples of the style are now facing demolition. Though “Brutalism” has become a nebulous architectural designation in the preservation community, this paper focuses on a specific subset of late Moderni

Abstract:

Although it has long been a controversial building, Boston's New City Hall sparked a revolution in both architecture and politics. Designed in 1962 by Gerhard Kallmann, Michael McKinnell, and Edward Knowles, the building boasts a distinctive design that responded to trends in European and American modernism, as well as the politics of 1960s Boston. During the past 50 years, the building has become widely reviled because of its architectural style and political symbolism. At the same time, it has influenced architecture and politics in its hometown, throughout the United States, and abroad.

Abstract Tells the life history of Elizabeth Hall Davis, one of tens of thousands of Black people who moved to Boston from the South during the Great Migration, transforming the city. Davis moved to Boston from Columbia, South Carolina, in 1963. She is one of ten people featured in a book that explores the Great Migration by examining the lives of individual migrants. Each is the focus of one chapter. Their stories bring to life the history of the Great Migration. They reveal a hidden aspect of Boston’s history and shine a spotlight on a singularly important event in the making of Black Boston

Abstract When Frederick Douglass died in February of 1895, the people of Boston called for a memorial service to honor him. Proud of its abolitionist heritage, Boston’s city council chose to hold a ceremony for the great black abolitionist at Faneuil Hall, once the favored site for rallies in the heyday of the movement. Members of Douglass’s family and former abolitionist colleagues spoke at the cere-mony, but the task of delivering the main eulogy was given to Albion W. Tourgée. His two-hour address, delivered on December 20, 1895, was later published at the city’s expense.

It was Wednesday evening, October 5, 1892. Three months earlier, Ida had celebrated her thirtieth birthday.

Abstract This chapter examines and repositions the Boston busing crisis of the mid-1970s within the broader context of the long history of civil rights activism in the city. Instead of a narrative focused almost exclusively (and somewhat sympathetically) on white reaction, as has been the case in books like Common Ground or Boston Against Busing, here, African American agency and activism takes center stage, situating the busing program as the culmination of nearly three decades of consistent political organizing by black Bostonians. In addition to community organizing and protest politics, th

Abstract:

Beginning with the idea of the ‘city novel’, this chapter considers Infinite Jest in relation to Boston’s social and topographical history in the late twentieth century, connecting this history with broader challenges to ideas of metropolitan space and life – and with Edward W. Soja’s category of the ‘postmetropolis’. The chapter develops this connection through a reading of the eclectic postmodern architecture Wallace invented for his re-imagined Boston. Then, it turns to the tentative excursions into the city’s public spaces that appear in the first half of the novel via Joelle van Dyne and

Abstract Edith Guerrier’s utopian pottery venture had thrust her into the world of petty entrepreneurship. Like the heroine of Louisa May Alcott’s Work, set in Boston almost half a century earlier, she hoped to redesign business relations as human relations.1 Most businesswomen set their sights lower. They left the larger picture of commercial relations alone, but redesigned their own spaces. Well into the twentieth century, the majority of these women, like Guerrier, combined home and business. By doing so, they hoped to turn homes—associated with female economic dependence—into sites of not

Abstract The research of a generation of economic and social historians has given us considerable insight into the occupational mobility experienced in the United States by immigrants in the first half of the nineteenth century. This work has shown that upward occupational mobility was infrequent during the careers of first-generation immigrants in the United States: no more than a third of immigrants who began their careers in the United States as unskilled workers in cities as different as Newburyport, Boston, Poughkeepsie, and South Bend were able to rise into the ranks of skilled or white
