71	“The Best Possible Time for War?” The USS Panay and American Far Eastern Policy During the Roosevelt Presidency Schnurr, Jeremy 13 December 2011 (has links) This thesis examines American Far Eastern policy from the beginning of the Franklin Roosevelt presidency through the early months of 1938. This study is chiefly concerned with the attack by Japanese aircraft on the USS Panay and its effect on the course of U.S. foreign policy. Particular attention is paid to the Anglo-American dialogue which occurred throughout the Far Eastern Crisis. Prior to the end of 1938, the U.S. administration’s position in Asia was dictated both by policies inherited from preceding administrations and by the extreme isolationism of the American people. This foundation effectively inhibited any cooperation with foreign powers. Relying on a reactive policy in the Far East, Washington remained aloof from entanglement as the President sought a plan which would permit U.S. involvement without inviting isolationist wrath. This paper traces an evolution in American Far Eastern policy, highlighting the Panay incident as a distinctly identifiable turning point whereby isolationism gave way to internationalism.

73	Die Kreuzessucht ward Kreuzesfluch(t): Die größte evangelische Auswanderungsbewegung Sächsischer Altlutheraner nach Missouri, unter Führung des Geistlichen Martin Stephan, wurde Ausgangspunkt für die Gründung der heute zweitgrößten Kirche Amerikas durch Pfarrer Carl Ferdinand Wilhelm Walther, der „Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod“ Schönfuß-Krause, Renate 14 December 2021 (has links) Mit den revolutionären Dresdner Unruhen 1830 änderte sich die staatliche Situation im Königreich Sachsen und der Kirche grundlegend. Es kam zum Sturz und zur Amtsenthebung des bisherigen Förderers pietistischer Ideen, des Grafen Detlev von Einsiedel als Kabinettsminister im Sächsischen Ministerium. Mit der Einsetzung des aus Altenburg stammenden liberalen Bernhard August von Lindenau (1779-1854) in dieses Amt veränderte sich die Gesamtsituation durch Re-formen und neue Gesetzgebungen grundlegend. Für konservative Theologen und Anhänger der Erweckten erschien es durch die Einflussnahme des Staates auf das Schulsystem und die kirchliche Agende immer unerträglicher, in der Heimat zu leben, zu arbeiten und ihre Auslegungen ihres lutherischen Glaubens in alter Form zu praktizieren. Unter Führung Martin Stephans erfolgte 1838 die sächsische Lutherische Auswanderung mit über 700 Anhängern aus Sachsen und Thüringen in die Vereinigten Staaten. Damit wurde der Grundstein für die heutige „Lutheran Church - Missouri Synod“ gelegt, die heute zweitgrößte lutherische Kirche der USA, die sein Nachfolger, Pfarrer C.F.W. Walther, gründete und die heute über 2,3 Millionen Mitglieder in den USA verzeichnen kann. info:eu-repo/classification/ddc/943 ddc:943 info:eu-repo/classification/ddc/973 ddc:973
74	Senator Oliver P. Morton and Historical Memory of the Civil War and Reconstruction in Indiana Rainesalo, Timothy C. 02 1900 (has links) Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / After governing Indiana during the Civil War, Oliver P. Morton acquired great national influence as a Senator from 1867 to 1877 during Reconstruction. He advocated for African American suffrage and proper remembrance of the Union cause. When he died in 1877, political colleagues, family members, and many Union veterans recalled Morton’s messages and used the occasion to reflect on the nation’s memories of the Civil War and Reconstruction. This thesis examines Indiana’s Governor and Senator Oliver P. Morton, using his postwar speeches, public commentary during and after his life, and the public testimonials and monuments erected in his memory to analyze his role in defining Indiana’s historical memories of the Civil War and Reconstruction from 1865 to 1907. The eulogies and monument commemoration ceremonies reveal the important reciprocal relationship between Morton and Union veterans, especially Indiana members of the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR). As the GAR’s influence increased during the nineteenth century, Indiana members used Morton’s legacy and image to promote messages of patriotism, national unity, and Union pride. The monuments erected in Indianapolis and Washington, D. C., reflect Indiana funders’ desire to remember Morton as a Civil War Governor and to use his image to reinforce viewers’ awareness of the sacrifices and results of the war. This thesis explores how Morton’s friends, family, political colleagues, and influential members of the GAR emphasized Morton’s governorship to use his legacy as a rallying point for curating and promoting partisan memories of the Civil War and, to a lesser extent, Reconstruction, in Indiana.
