Washington. D.C.’s urban plan has been studied from Baroque and Parisian standpoints, amongst others. However, understanding Americas capital urban plan from a Kemelic perspective has rarely been attempted. The objective of this investigation was to examine Kemetic symbols within the urban plan, street layout, of Washington, D.C., and to add another, ancient African narrative to the way the city can be interpreted. This study is significant because it explores an overlooked, understudied, yet essential, contribution from an ancient African culture. Kemet. The theoretical framework employed in this research comes from Molefi Asante’s Afrocentricity theory. This theory was employed because it places African phenomena at the center of the research. Further, Afroccntricity, allowed for an expansion of the current conversation as it pertains to discussing the urban plan of Washington. In addition, a hermeneutical methodology was utilized to analyze particular maps, and ancient Kemetic papyri, to show how Kemetic symbols could be seen within the city’s uiban plan. Information was gathered from maps, hand-drawn maps, papyri, texts, and visits to the nation’s pital. The conclusions drawn from the analysis illustrate that there are Kemetic symbols found within the urban plan of Washington, D.C. Lastly, the research provides evidence that, from its inception, Washington, D.C. had Kemetic symbols incorporated into its urban plan: and that past and present builders may be aware of this Kemetic presence.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Boston University / A scholarly treatise on art, written by an American artist in the first half of the nineteenth century, and almost completely ignored in the history of American art and thought, provided the original incentive for the study of Washington Allston as critic. An additional incentive derived from the paradox of a reputation which was phenomenal in the artist's lifetime, but which had deteriorated almost to a nullity by the end of the century in which he lived. An examination of the reputation and influence of Allston as critic, and an effort to trace the development of his thought, involved a scrutiny of biographical material available in legal documents, manuscript notes, correspondence, memorabilia, biographies and biographical sketches; references to the artist in newspapers, magazines and literary works; an examination of American criticism; and the history of criticism and of American thought, with particular reference to the developments in New England.
