Abstract:
E.D.E.N. Southworth's originally massively popular novel, The Hidden Hand (1859), was not published as a book until it had undergone serialization three separate times, over the course of a quarter century, in a weekly story-paper called the New York Ledger. This bare fact about the material form in which it circulated and gained its large and admiring audience has consequences for interpreting the novel that have gone entirely unexamined by scholars. Thus, Southworth's novel offers a good test case for the claim that the material form of publication (in this case, periodical serialization) is a substantively important aspect of the work's meaning: the readers who responded to it so enthusiastically had all read it under the conditions of seriality. In this essay I attempt to take account of the interpretive implications of seriality for understanding Southworth's novel, exploring some of the ways in which it was ideologically embedded in the Ledger and describing the active and canny role it played in that periodical's strident apoliticism. The Hidden Hand embodied the magazine's declared nonpartisanship in, among other things, various forms of generic melding and imaginary scenarios of sectional uni�cation. Critical accounts that have sought to characterize this novel as proslavery or antislavery have all missed the point that Southworth's tale actively ignored such political issues and thus sought to transcend the dire sectional controversies that were unmistakably impending at the time of its publication.

Abstract:
In The Larkin's Technologies of Trust, Zeynep Çelik Alexander uses the card ledger invented by Darwin D. Martin, corporate secretary for the Larkin Company, as a starting point for a new history of a well-known modernist building: the Larkin Administration Building in Buffalo, New York, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Founded in 1875 as a soap manufacturer, the Larkin Company had grown dramatically by the beginning of the twentieth century, in large part because of innovative marketing strategies made possible by ingenious information-processing techniques. But it was also thanks to Wright's designs for office equipment—informed by principles of modularity and interchangeability—that armies of “human computers” were able to maintain this information regime. Çelik Alexander argues that the bureaucracy made possible by the Larkin Administration Building's architecture has been a blind spot in historiography; she aims to offer an architecturally oriented account of the history of data as epistemic unit, contending that the Larkin's protodatabase was, first and foremost, a moral technology predicated on managing networks of trust.

Abstract:
In 1929 the American Antiquarian Society published an eighty-three-page manuscript that describes commercial transactions for slaves, ivory, and gold on the Gold and Slave Coasts from 1789 to 1792. George Plimpton owned this manuscript. As it includes a slave-trading ledger of the schooner Swallow, Plimpton entitled the manuscript “The Journal of an African Slaver.” The “journal” is one of the few published documents in the English language that specifies financial transactions for slaves between European and African traders on the coast of Africa during the late eighteenth century.In his four-page introduction to the journal Plimpton stated that:The name of the ship engaged in the traffic was the schooner ‘Swallow,’ Capt. John Johnston, 1790-1792. There is a reference to a previous voyage when ‘Captain Peacock had her,’ also some abstracts of accounts kept by Capt. David McEleheran in 1789 of trade in gold, slaves and ivory on the Gold Coast. None of these names can be identified as to locality, and there is, of course, the possibility, especially taking into consideration the English nature of the cargo bartered, that the vessel was an English slaver.The journal was included with some mid-nineteenth century South Carolina plantation accounts when it was purchased at an auction in New York, thus suggesting to Plimpton that the journal's author was perhaps a “South Carolinian who made this trip to Africa.”In this research note I will identify the various vessels and traders mentioned in this manuscript by referring to the data-set I have assembled from other sources concerning the slave trade during this period. We will seethat Plimpton's “journal” is a set of account books owned by the Gold Coast agents of London and Havre merchant William Collow. I then will discuss the importance of Collow as a merchant and shipowner in the late eighteenth-century British slave trade.

Abstract:
The terrorist attack and collapse of two towers of the World Trade Center (WTC) in New York City on September 11, 2001 generated tremendous clouds of dust that settled over a wide area. Concern over the potential health effects of breathing this dust made it imperative that the WTC dust be characterized as completely as possible. As part of this characterization, a microscopical examination using several types of microscopes provided key data on the components of the dust. The WTC dust sample that is the primary focus of this report was collected by F.C. Ewing from an outdoor window ledge at 33 Maiden Lane, New York City, NY on October 7, 2001.

Abstract:
The New York Ledger (1844 -1903) was one of the most popular periodicals in nineteenth-century America. In the tension between its business strategies and the policy advocacy on its editorial page, it embodied the nation's transition from market to industrial capitalism. Publisher Robert Bonner attempted to bridge competing economic systems when he signed exclusive, long-term, lucrative contracts with his authors. at the same time, the editorial page promoted industrialization and modernization-strategies at odds with Bonner's economics of loyalty.;In the pages of the paper and in his interactions with authors, Bonner enacted a very human form of business that cloaked the dehumanizing impact of capital aggregation, mass production, and the alienation of the producer from his product in the language of sentiment. Fiction by the Ledger writers, who were themselves beneficiaries of the economics of loyalty, often developed a new syntax of business. In this way, the Ledger's fiction, non-fiction, and business and editorial practices commented on the process of economic change occurring in America in the nineteenth century.;In contrast with the few scholars who have written about the Ledger who discuss Bonner as either a "gentleman publisher" or a cold capitalist exploiting his writers, I see the Ledger's sentimental business strategies as an intermediate developmental step. However, the paper lost its share of the market because it could not compete in the increasingly impersonal world of late nineteenth-century publishing. Understanding the paper's business practices and narrative strategies has implications for apprehending the reach of sentimentalism, the application of industrial capitalism to the artistic marketplace, and the changes to ideal masculinity over the course of the nineteenth century.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to trace how Sara Willis Parton achieved unprecedented literary celebrity status as Fanny Fern during the first three years of her professional career, 1851-1853. While most critics point to her famously lucrative contract with the most popular newspaper of the 1850s, the New York Ledger, in 1854 as the beginning of her fame, I argue that she had already fully achieved that fame and had done so by writing for small Boston newspapers and publishing a highly successful collection of her articles by 1853. Further, Fern was able to achieve such a high level of success because of a keen business sense, intuitive marketing savvy, an ability to promote herself, an original writing style, and a creative use of personas. My study provides an important addition to Fern scholarship by addressing the largely overlooked early years of her writing career. To date, scholars either make no mention of her first three years or do so only to demonstrate the point that Fern achieved notable success when she signed a contract for one hundred dollars a column with Robert Bonner, publisher and editor of the New York Ledger. Prior to that contract, Fern worked as a freelance writer for the Boston Olive Branch and the Boston True Flag, earning less than five dollars for each sketch she submitted. The critical assumption has been that her initial work prepared her for the fame she would achieve writing for Bonner, but in fact Bonner would not have hired her had she not already achieved significant fame, for Bonner hired only highly celebrated writers. My study explores how Fanny Fern became a famous writer. When she began writing, Fern wrote under a number of previously unknown pseudonyms for local newspapers, but within three years her distinctive style, rhetorical skill, and iconoclastic persona had made ―Fanny Fern a household name. Fern‘s unique ability to engage a popular audience, I would argue, is the principal difference between Fern and other famous contemporary women writers.
