Free Download Cornelia James Cannon and the Future American Race By Maria I. Diedrich 2010 | 289 Pages | ISBN: 1558498419 | PDF | 8 MB This biography examines the life of Cornelia James Cannon (1876-1969), a Radcliffe graduate, wife of a prominent Harvard professor, and mother of five who became a prolific writer and "all-purpose reformer," in the words of her son-in-law, Arthur Schlesinger Jr. In addition to writing eight novels, Cannon published dozens of essays during the 1920s and 1930s on a broad range of controversial topics. She advocated on behalf of women's rights, birth control, and public education and wrote provocative essays on immigration policy, welfare reform, and eugenics.According to Maria I. Diedrich, it was the last of these concerns, Cannon's interest in what she and her husband called "the future of the race"―a term conflating ideas of class, race, and ethnicity―that inspired many of her varied reform activities. From the vantage point of today it may seem hard to understand how a social reformer and outspoken feminist could also embrace eugenicist principles. Yet, in the context of the time such views were not uncommon among progressive thinkers.Far from being an extremist or even exceptional, Cornelia James Cannon was a woman representative of her social class and historical moment. By disentangling the threads of Cannon's life and thought, Diedrich seeks to shed light on the experiences of other progressive reformers of the interwar years whose interest in social justice often went hand in hand with racially exclusive notions of Americanness.Maria I. Diedrich is professor of English and American studies at the University of Muenster. Her previous books include Love across Color Lines: Ottile Assing and Frederick Douglass and Black Columbiad: Defining Moments in African American Literature and Culture, coedited with Werner Sollors. Review"This biography not only tells the story of a particular woman about whom little has been written; it personalizes the development of eugenics and illustrates how fairly average or middle-class intellectuals could develop a strong belief in this pseudo-scientific ideology."―Sue Currell, coeditor of Popular Eugenics: National Efficiency and American Mass Culture in the 1930s"College-level collections strong in social issues, history, and biography will find this a fine study."―Midwest Book Review"Maria I. Diedrich does a masterful job of providing an empathetic portrait of Cannon. We feel that we understand this ambitious, vivacious, and witty woman, even as we decry her biologistic monocausalism."―American Historical Review Free Download Linux for Beginners by Jason Cannon Last updated 8/2023 Duration: 7h 55m | Video: .MP4, 1280x720 30 fps | Audio: AAC, 48 kHz, 2ch | Size: 1.55 GB Genre: eLearning | Language: English An Introduction to the Linux Operating System and Command Line Free Download Corporal Cannon: A Female Marine in Afghanistan by Savannah Cannon English | September 16, 2022 | ISBN: 1636241662 | 330 pages | PDF | 1.47 Mb "...a dramatic, sobering account of prejudice and the mistreatment of women in combat zones." - Publishers Weekly Free Download Cannon in Canada, Province by Province, New Brunswick by Harold Skaarup English | November 25, 2020 | ISBN: 1954304048 | 246 pages | EPUB | 25 Mb This first volume of Cannon in Canada is an informative and detailed synopsis of the carefully preserved and restored guns and artillery on display in the province of New Brunswick.
