ISBN: 9780801489853Cornell University Press | 01 January 2005Paperback | 256 pagesDescriptionSusan M. Ryan explores antebellum Americans' preoccupation with the language and practice of benevolence. Drawing on a variety of cultural and literary texts, she traces how people working and writing within social reform movements-and their outspoken opponents-helped solidify racial and class ideologies that ultimately marginalized even the most "deserving" poor. "The links between race and the relations of benevolence occasioned much soul-searching among antebellum Americans," Ryan explains. "In a period of heated public debate over issues such as slavery, Indian removal, and non-Protestant immigration, the categories of blackness, Indianness, and a generic 'foreignness' came to signify, for many whites, need itself."Ryan puts familiar literary works such as Herman Melville's The Confidence-Man, Frederick Douglass's My Bondage and My Freedom, and Harriet Beecher Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin back into dialogue with a broad range of print materials: the reports of charity societies, African American and Native American newspapers, juvenile fiction, travel writing, cartoons, sermons, and tract literature. In the process, she dispels the myth that authors usually classified as literary were responding to a simple and unquestioned cult of benevolence. Rather, she contends, they were participating in the complex and often rancorous debates occurring within the broader culture over how good intentions should be expressed and enacted.Ryan's inquiry into the antebellum culture of benevolence has implications for contemporary U.S. society, resonating especially with recent debates over welfare reform, the politics of compassionate conservatism, and representations of "welfare queens" and violent urban youth. As Ryan writes, "The conversations that this book reconstructs remind us of our ongoing participation in the national ritual of laying claim to good intentions.", 0, Paperback. New. There are a number of books on media innovation. Most of them are no more than theories or insights obtained from other books or ideas. What we need are not only insights but also the practices required to change news media in the real market. In 2009 I founded the news media outlet Wikitree in Korea. Wikitree was designed as a social-network news service, although at that time, we had never even heard of the word 'social network.' It grew very fast after linking Twitter and Facebook to one of the most influential internet news services in Korea. As of now, its monthly pageview is over 220 million, according to Google Analytics. I wrote the actual stories and insights longing for success in news media innovation. Hopefully, this book will help media workers for traditional newspapers or broadcasting services to overcome the obstacles that have held them back for so long. [Table of Content] 1.

""They're closing in on me, Dick, and I'm afraid they're going to get me," said Frank Wood, publisher of the Green Bay News-Chronicle, in a phone call to his friend and colleague, Richard McCord. Drained of cash and spirit, Wood could not hold out much longer against a devouring giant, the Gannett Company. As editor and publisher of the nationally distinguished weekly Santa Fe Reporter, McCord had successfully fended off Gannett's "Operation Demolition" when it moved into town. Now Wood was seeking the help of a survivor.Startling case histories of the dubious tactics practiced by Gannett, unsparing insights into the newspaper industry, and harsh conclusions all come together in the dramatic story of these two men's efforts to save the small Green Bay daily from being obliterated at the hands of the nation's largest newspaper chain. Their success is a metaphor for one of the oldest triumphs of the world: that of David over Goliath."; 1.1 x 9.1 x 6.1 Inches; xi, 290 pages; DJ has light rubbing, shelf wear, corners of front DJ flaps are creased; in a mylar cover. ; Signed by Author ., University of Missouri Press, 1996, 4, Springwood Books Ltd, London, first edition, 1977.

It survived official suppression in the early 17th century by reporting only foreign news. It survived the Civil War by playing a partisan role. When hard news was in short supply, it survived by inventing the crime, sex and human interest story. It survived the punitive burden of the Stamp Acts - the notorious 'taxes on knowledge' - by ingenious tax evasion. When these ran out, it found loopholes in the law. Successive governments fought the newspapers with implacable energy. The papers survived by going underground, hiding in cellars from the armies of Government spies. In the pages of the newspapers are recorded the events of those times - the humiliating break-away of Britain's North American Colony, the shattering collapse of France in her Revolution, the campaign against Napoleon and social unrest at home.These reports of revolution and war, civil disorder and political corruption can be read, not in the fulsome language of historians, but in the earthy words of practical men describing what they saw. The detail is often totally unexpected, intriguing and at variance with historical interpretation.
