Bringing Down the Colonel A Sex Scandal of the Gilded Age, and the "Powerless" Woman Who Took On Washington【電子書籍】[ Patricia Miller ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>“I’ll take my share of the blame. I only ask that he take his.”</strong></p> <p>In <em>Bringing Down the Colonel</em>, the journalist Patricia Miller tells the story of Madeline Pollard, an unlikely nineteenth-century women’s rights crusader. After an affair with a prominent politician left her “ruined,” Pollard brought the manーand the hypocrisy of America’s control of women’s sexualityーto trial. And, surprisingly, she won.</p> <p>Pollard and the married Colonel Breckinridge began their decade-long affair when she was just a teenager. After the death of his wife, Breckinridge asked for Pollard’s handーand then broke off the engagement to marry <em>another</em> woman. But Pollard struck back, suing Breckinridge for breach of promise in a shockingly public trial. With premarital sex considered irredeemably ruinous for a woman, Pollard was asserting the unthinkable: that the sexual morality of men and women should be judged equally.</p> <p>Nearly 125 years after the Breckinridge-Pollard scandal, America is still obsessed with women’s sexual morality. And in the age of Donald Trump and Harvey Weinstein, we’ve witnessed fraught public reckonings with a type of sexual exploitation unnervingly similar to that experienced by Pollard. Using newspaper articles, personal journals, previously unpublished autobiographies, and letters, <em>Bringing Down the Colonel</em> tells the story of one of the earliest women to publicly fight back.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 2,112円

The Market Power of Technology Understanding the Second Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Mordecai Kurz ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Since the 1980s, the United States has regressed to a level of economic inequality not seen since the Gilded Age in the late nineteenth century. At the same time, technological innovation has transformed society, and a core priority of public policy has been promoting innovation. What is the relationship between economic inequality and technological change?</p> <p>Mordecai Kurz develops a comprehensive integrated theory of the dynamics of market power and income inequality. He shows that technological innovations are not simply sources of growth and progress: they sow the seeds of market power. In a free market economy with intellectual property rights, firms’ control over technology enables them to expand, attain monopoly power, and earn exorbitant profits. Competition among innovators does not eliminate market power because technological competition is different from standard competition; it results in only one or two winners. Kurz provides a pioneering analysis grounded on quantifying technological market power and its effects on inequality, innovation, and economic growth. He outlines what causes market power to rise and fall and details its macroeconomic and distributional consequences.</p> <p>Kurz demonstrates that technological market power tends to rise, increasing inequality of income and wealth. Unchecked inequality threatens the foundations of democracy: public policy is the only counterbalancing force that can restrain corporate power, attain more egalitarian distribution of wealth, and make democracy compatible with capitalism. Presenting a new paradigm for understanding today’s vast inequalities, this book offers detailed proposals to redress them by restricting corporate mergers and acquisitions, reforming patent law, improving the balance of power in the labor market, increasing taxation, promoting upward mobility, and stabilizing the middle class.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 5,011円

Thomas Brackett Reed The Gilded Age Speaker Who Made the Rules for American Politics【電子書籍】[ Robert Klotz ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Defining a “statesman” as “a successful politician who is dead,” Thomas Brackett Reed gave himself some latitude in pursuing his goals as a congressional leader. His leadership style is encapsulated in the Reed Rules, which serve as the institutional foundation of the modern House of Representatives and as a metaphor for the practice of power politics for partisan ends.</p> <p><em>Thomas Brackett Reed</em> tells the story of a roller-coaster career in the Gilded Age. Speaker Reed reached a pinnacle when Republicans enacted landmark legislation in the aftermath of a transformation of parliamentary procedure spearheaded by his dramatic refusal to recognize delaying tactics permitted under the rules in 1890. Months later, Reed led Republicans to a disastrous off-year election, which cost his party unified governmental control and left it with only 26 percent of House seats. He returned as Speaker of the House in the late 1890s, when he became alienated from other Republicans over the issue of American expansionism.</p> <p>Combining extensive archival research with political science findings, Robert Klotz offers a balanced portrayal of Reed's leadership in Congress. While empowering the House majority party to govern, the Reed Rules can also elevate partisan discord by allowing majorities to craft bill-specific special rules and to neglect opposing viewpoints. Ultimately, the biography illuminates the transcendent challenge of finding compromise in polarized politics.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,043円

Outside the Lines of Gilded Age Baseball: The Origins of the 1890 Players League【電子書籍】[ Dr. Rob Bauer ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This is book 3 in the series on 1880s baseball from Society of American Baseball Research member Dr. Rob Bauer. He is a member of SABR's 19th Century and Deadball Era research committees.</p> <p>After the 1889 baseball season, the players of the National League, furious over their treatment by NL owners, decided to secede from the National League and start their own rival league, the Players League. Their league lasted only one season, but its formation remains one of the seminal events in understanding the trajectory of nineteenth-century baseball. Why is this true?</p> <p>By learning why the players of the NL elected to strike out on their own, we gain insight into some of the critical issues facing the game in the late 1880s, particularly the relationship between team owners and their players. However, that's not all. Had a few things gone differently, the Players League might have succeeded. Had it done so, the entire history of major league baseball would have been vastly different. Therefore, understanding the motivations of the players gives us a glimpse of both what was, and what might have been. Put simply, baseball history in the 1890s is incomprehensible without knowledge of the 1890 Players League and how it began</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 449円

The Philistines A Clash of Tradition and Progress in Gilded Age America【電子書籍】[ Arlo Bates ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "The Philistines," Arlo Bates delves into the complexities of societal norms and the individual's struggle against them, set against the backdrop of late 19th-century America. The novel employs a rich, descriptive literary style, capturing the nuances of character and emotion while weaving a narrative that critiques the complacency of bourgeois society. Bates crafts a vivid portrayal of his characters' internal conflicts, using symbolism and social commentary to reflect the cultural tensions of his time, particularly the clash between artistic ambition and societal expectations. Arlo Bates, a writer and critic deeply embedded in the literary movements of his era, brings his own experiences as a member of the literary elite and an advocate for artistic integrity to this work. His expertise in both fiction and criticism informs his portrayal of artists and intellectuals grappling with the prevailing philistinism of an increasingly materialistic society. Bates's observations on the intersection of art and ethics stem from his commitment to exploring the transformative power of literature. Readers seeking a thought-provoking exploration of personal and societal values will find "The Philistines" both engaging and relevant. Bates's incisive commentary on the nature of artistic integrity and societal pressure resonates within contemporary discussions about culture and identity. This novel is a must-read for those interested in the philosophical underpinnings of literature and its impact on social consciousness.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円

<p><strong>“The <em>Today</em> show co-host and weatherman writes a narrative history of the 1889 Johnstown flood, the deadliest in American history.” ー<em>New York Times Book Review</em>, “New & Noteworthy”</strong></p> <p>Central Pennsylvania, May 31, 1889: After a deluge of rainーnearly a foot in less than twenty-four hoursーswelled the Little Conemaugh River, engineers watched helplessly as swiftly rising waters threatened to breach the South Fork dam, built to create a private lake for a fishing and hunting club that counted among its members Andrew Mellon, Henry Clay Frick, and Andrew Carnegie. Though the engineers telegraphed neighboring towns to warn of impending danger, residents remained in their homes, having grown used to false alarms.</p> <p>At 3:10 P.M., the dam gave way, releasing twenty million tons of water and wiping out nearly everything in its path before reaching Johnstown, a vibrant steel town fourteen miles downstream. Traveling forty miles an hour, with swells as high as 60 feet, the deadly floodwaters razed the mill townーhome to 20,000 peopleーin minutes.</p> <p>In <em>Ruthless Tide</em>, Al Roker follows an unforgettable cast of characters, including John Parke, the engineer whose heroic efforts failed to save the dam; the robber barons whose fancy sport fishing resort was responsible for modifications that weakened the dam; and Clara Barton, the founder of the American Red Cross, who led one of the first organized disaster relief efforts in the U.S. Weaving together their stories and those of many ordinary citizens whose lives were forever altered, <em>Ruthless Tide</em> is testament to the power of the human spirit.</p> <p>“Reads like a nail-biting thriller.” ー<em>Library Journal,</em> starred review</p> <p>“Both a good yarn and a morality tale.” ー<em>Publishers Weekly</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,760円

<p><strong>The Billionaire Raj: A Journey Through India's New Gilded Age by James Crabtree | Conversation Starters</strong></p> <p>Author James Crabtree paints a colorful portrait of the rise of the new billionaire class in India despite its radically unequal society. In The Billionaire Raj: A Journey Through India's New Gilded Age, Crabtree relays the facts about India. It is currently the world’s largest democracy. It is the home to more than a billion people. Its economy is expanding in a faster rate than China’s. However, the rewards of this great growth have not been shared evenly to its people. The top 1% of India owns almost 60% of the nation’s wealth. In Mumbai, half of the population live in slums but a few dynasties enjoy extraordinary riches like America’s Rockefellers and Vanderbilts. In The Billionaire Raj, James Crabtree brings the readers on a journey to meet the billionaires, tycoons, and the political power brokers.</p> <p>Tunku Varadarajan for The Wall Street Journal writes that Crabtree’s book is “lively and valuable blend of the empirical and the anecdotal.” The Economist says that Crabtree “show[s] how India’s political system and its firms are symbiotically connected, in an entertainingーand sometimes disturbingーfashion.” Jonathan A.

Mary Elizabeth Garrett Society and Philanthropy in the Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Kathleen Waters Sander ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>“[A] richly detailed biography of a formidable nineteenth-century woman who worked in a man’s world to help women attain education, suffrage, and equality.” ー<em>Journal of American History</em></strong></p> <p>As youngest child and only daughter to B&O Railroad mogul John Work Garrett, Mary was bright and capable, well suited to become her father’s heir apparent. But social convention prohibited her from following in his footsteps, a source of great frustration for the brilliant and strong-willed woman.</p> <p>Mary turned her attention instead to promoting women’s rights, using her status and massive wealth to advance her uncompromising vision for women’s place in the expanding United States. She contributed the endowment to establish the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine with two unprecedented conditions: that women be admitted on the same terms as men and that the school be graduate level, thereby forcing revolutionary policy changes at the male-run institution. Believing that advanced education was the key to women’s betterment, she helped found and sustain the prestigious girls’ preparatory school in Baltimore, the Bryn Mawr School. Her philanthropic gifts to Bryn Mawr College helped transform the modest Quaker school into a renowned women’s college. She was also a great supporter of women’s suffrage.</p> <p>Kathleen Waters Sander recounts in impressive detail the life and times of this remarkable woman, through the turbulent years of the Civil War to the early twentieth century. At once a captivating biography of Garrett and an epic account of the rise of commerce, railroading, and women’s rights, Sander’s work is the first to recognize her monumental contributions to America while also reexamining the great social and political movements of the age.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,936円

Mr. Jones Navigating New York High Society: A Tale of Power, Privilege, and Morality in the Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Edith Wharton ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>In "Mr. Jones," Edith Wharton masterfully weaves a narrative that explores the intricacies of social class and the human condition against the backdrop of early 20th-century America. The book's literary style is characterized by Wharton's sharp wit and keen observations, as she delves into the psyche of her characters with a focus on moral dilemmas and the pursuit of authenticity in a world dictated by societal expectations. This novella serves as a snapshot of the shifting mores and burgeoning individualism of the Jazz Age, inviting readers to reflect on the conflicts between personal desires and social obligations. Edith Wharton, acclaimed for her astute commentary on the constraints placed upon women and the upper-class society she inhabited, drew inspiration from her own experiences within elite circles. Born into a wealthy family, her keen awareness of social dynamics and her personal struggles with identity may have influenced her portrayal of Mr. Jones, a figure caught between societal pressure and self-fulfillment. Through her incisive perspective, Wharton captures the zeitgeist of her era while simultaneously charting timeless human struggles. "Mr. Jones" is recommended for readers seeking a nuanced exploration of social stratification and identity, beautifully penned by one of America's foremost literary voices. Wharton's ability to blend empathy with critique renders this novella an essential read for anyone interested in the interplay of class and personal authenticity.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 310円

Gilded Age Cato The Life of Walter Q. Gresham【電子書籍】[ Charles W. Calhoun ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Union general, federal judge, presidential contender, and cabinet officerーWalter Q. Gresham of Indiana stands as an enigmatic character in the politics of the Gilded Age, one who never seemed comfortable in the offices he sought. This first scholarly biography not only follows the turns of his career but seeks also to find the roots of his disaffection.</p> <p>Entering politics as a Whig, Gresham shortly turned to help organize the new Republican Party and was a contender for its presidential nomination in the 1880s. But he became popular with labor and with the Populists and closed his political career by serving as secretary of state under Grover Cleveland.</p> <p>In reviewing Gresham's conduct of foreign affairs, Charles W. Calhoun disputes the widely held view that he was an economic expansionist who paved the way for imperialism. Gresham, instead, is seen here as a traditionalist who tried to steer the country away from entanglements abroad. It is this traditionalism that Calhoun finds to be the clue to Gresham's career. Troubled with self-doubt, Gresham, like the Cato of old, sought strength in a return to the republican virtues of the Revolutionary generation.</p> <p>Based on a thorough use of the available resources, this will stand as the definitive biography of an important figure in American political and diplomatic history, and in its portrayal of a man out of step with his times it sheds a different light on the politics of the Gilded Age.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,746円

New York’s Scoundrels, Scalawags, and Scrappers The City in the Last Decade of the Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ John Tauranac ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The 1890s was the tail end of the Gilded Age. It was not a “Golden Age,” it was a veneer, and although the decade is specifically called “The Gay Nineties,” the gaiety was generally reserved for the top ten percenters. If you were a common working stiffーor worse, a common working “stiffette”ーlife was not so gay. Most New Yorkers played by the rules of the game, although some fudged a bit. Others, along with the managements of some businesses and some administrations of the municipality, played by totally different rules, successfully gaming the system to their advantage. The few who fought for truth and justice generally went down fighting.

William C. Brocklesby: A Connecticut Valley Architect in the Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Bill Ranauro ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The late nineteenth century, known commonly as the "Gilded Age," produced some of the most beautiful yet controversial architecture in America's history. The great influencers of the period, including Richard Upjohn, Henry Hobson Richardson, and Charles McKim, each spread the gospel of his own architectural style. The result was an eclectic mix of styles that some detested but that others embraced. Caught in the struggle to find an architecture America could claim as its own, Hartford, Connecticut architect William Brocklesby carved out his own stylistic path. In an age when the taste for ostentation and pretension was adopted by many, William Brocklesby produced some of the most dignified and beautiful architecture in the Connecticut Valley. His churches, libraries, and theaters remain as artistic landmarks throughout western New England, and his work at colleges from Hartford to Amherst, Massachusetts make for some of the most picturesque college campuses in America. This book serves as a companion to the author's earlier book, Asher Benjamin, American Architect, Author, Artist. Taken together, the two books provide a view of developments in American architecture from 1790 to 1910.</p> <p>The Architecture of William C. Brocklesby</p> <p>Hailing from Hartford, Connecticut, architect William C. Brocklesby (1847-1910) spent his career designing beautiful yet dignified churches, libraries, and public buildings throughout the Connecticut River Valley and western New England. Working in an age when ostentation was the rule rather than the exception, Brocklesby maintained a restrained hand in the application of ornament. His design ofForbes Library in Northampton, Massachusetts stands out as a monument to his ability as a design architect.</p> <p>In addition, William Brocklesby was among a handful of nineteenth century architects who made the Connecticut River Valley the birthplace of the prototypical American college campus. Working largely within the vision of the famed American landscape architects Andrew Jackson Downing and Frederick Law Olmstead, Brocklesby and others built campuses that were meant to mimic the traditional New England village.</p> <p>“Through the designs of the college buildings by Peabody and Stearns and William Brocklesby, Smith College's architectural history traces the development of late nineteenth-century styles.”</p> <p>- National Register of Historic Places Inventory</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,346円

Literature and Inequality Nine Perspectives from the Napoleonic Era through the First Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Daniel Shaviro ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Today, high-end inequality in America and peer countries is at Gilded Age levels. These matters are too important and complicated to be left just to economists. A broader sociological and humanistic approach is necessary. Great works of literature, such as those by the likes of Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Mark Twain, and Edith Wharton, are among the resources that can help us to better understand high-end inequality’s broader, culturally contingent, ramifications ? not just in the authors’ own eras but today.</p> <p>Daniel Shaviro’s <em>Literature and Inequality</em> offers a unique and accessible interdisciplinary take on how a number of great and beloved works from the nineteenth- and early-twentieth centuries help shed light on modern high-end inequality. In particular, Shaviro helps us to understand the relevance both of cultural differences between America and peer countries such as England and France, and of cultural commonalities between America’s First Gilded Age in the late-nineteenth century and its currently ongoing Second Gilded Age.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 3,364円

Fueling the Gilded Age Railroads, Miners, and Disorder in Pennsylvania Coal Country【電子書籍】[ Andrew B. Arnold ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>If the railroads won the Gilded Age, the coal industry lost it. Railroads epitomized modern management, high technology, and vast economies of scale. By comparison, the coal industry was embarrassingly primitive. Miners and operators dug coal, bought it, and sold it in 1900 in the same ways that they had for generations. In the popular imagination, coal miners epitomized anti-modern forces as the so-called “Molly Maguire” terrorists.</p> <p>Yet the sleekly modern railroads were utterly dependent upon the disorderly coal industry. Railroad managers demanded that coal operators and miners accept the purely subordinate role implied by their status. They refused.</p> <p>Fueling the Gilded Age shows how disorder in the coal industry disrupted the strategic plans of the railroads. It does so by expertly intertwining the history of two industriesーrailroads and coal miningーthat historians have generally examined from separate vantage points. It shows the surprising connections between railroad management and miner organizing; railroad freight rate structure and coal mine operations; railroad strategy and strictly local legal precedents. It combines social, economic, and institutional approaches to explain the Gilded Age from the perspective of the relative losers of history rather than the winners. It beckons readers to examine the still-unresolved nature of America’s national conundrum: how to reconcile the competing demands of national corporations, local businesses, and employees.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 7,160円

Galahad in the Gilded Age: A Life of George William Curtis【電子書籍】[ Linda Dowling ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Galahad in the Gilded Age is the story of George William Curtis, regarded at the beginning of his career as little more than a handsome, amusing young man from a socially prominent family. His life would change dramatically after four years traveling in Europe and the Levant, from which he returned to find himself a literary celebrityー“the Howadji”ーfollowing the appearance of two books describing his Middle East experiences that some considered so provocatively sensuous as to border on obscenity. Yet during this early celebrity, Curtis would find his life changing profoundlyーdiscovering marital happiness, facing financial bankruptcy and finding himself irresistibly drawn into increasingly bitter controversies: the national battle against slavery, against wide-spreading political corruption, and against what Curtis regarded as a wholly unreasonable resistance to granting women the right to vote. George William Curtis, a contemporary would conclude after his death, was “the best knight of our time.”</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 571円

Lawrence in the Gilded Age【電子書籍】[ Louise Brady Sandberg ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The Gilded Age, c. 1870-1898, was a time of promise and expanding horizons for the people of Lawrence, known as "the Queen City on the Merrimack." Passenger trains, horse-drawn trolleys, and electric streetcars dominated transportation, one-third of the population worked in manufacturing, and thirteen newspapers brought the latest information to the city's burgeoning population of nearly sixty thousand people. Through unique images from the special collections of the Lawrence Public Library, rich commentary, and a virtual walking tour, Lawrence in the Gilded Age relives the last three decades of the nineteenth century in Lawrence, which had managed to avoid the labor strikes and political and social unrest that plagued the city in the early twentieth century.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,878円

The Freedom of the Streets Work, Citizenship, and Sexuality in a Gilded Age City【電子書籍】[ Sharon E. Wood ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Gilded Age cities offered extraordinary opportunities to women ー but at a price. As clerks, factory hands, and professionals flocked downtown to earn a living, they alarmed social critics and city fathers, who warned that self-supporting women were just steps away from becoming prostitutes. With in-depth research possible only in a mid-sized city, Sharon E. Wood focuses on Davenport, Iowa, to explore the lives of working women and the prostitutes who shared their neighborhoods.</p> <p>The single, self-supporting women who migrated to Davenport in the years following the Civil War saw paid labor as the foundation of citizenship. They took up the tools of public and political life to assert the respectability of paid employment and to confront the demon of prostitution. Wood offers cradle-to-grave portraits of individual girls and women ー both prostitutes and “respectable” white workers ー seeking to reshape their city and expand women’s opportunities. As Wood demonstrates, however, their efforts to rewrite the sexual politics of the streets met powerful resistance at every turn from men defending their political rights and sexual power.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 4,008円
