Free Black Heads of Households in the New York State Federal Census, 1790-1830

By: Alice Eichholz,James M. Rose

Published originally in 1981, the work at hand is an alphabetical listing of all free African-American heads of household listed in the five U.S. censuses for the State of New York taken between 1790 and 1830. Since it was during this 40-year period that the New York legislature passed a series of statutes resulting in the gradual emancipation of the state's slave population, the scope of this work documents the emergence of a completely free black population by 1830. In all, there are 15,000 references to freedmen, many of whom appear in more than one census.

Bringing Zion Home

Israel in American Jewish Culture, 19481967

By: Emily Alice Katz

Demonstrates how American Jews used cultureart, dance, music, fashion, literatureto win the hearts and minds of postwar Americans to the cause of Israel. Bringing Zion Home examines the role of culture in the establishment of the special relationship between the United States and Israel in the immediate postwar decades. Many American Jews first encountered Israel through their roles as tastemakers, consumers, and cultural impresariosthat is, by writing and reading about Israel; dancing Israeli folk dances; promoting and purchasing Israeli goods; and presenting Israeli art and music. It was precisely by means of these cultural practices, argues Emily Alice Katz, that American Jews insisted on Israels natural place in American culture, a phenomenon that continues to shape Americas relationship with Israel today. Katz shows that American Jews promotion and consumption of Israel in the cultural realm was bound up with multiple agendas, including the quest for Jewish authenticity in a postimmigrant milieu and the desire of upwardly mobile Jews to polish their status in American society. And, crucially, as influential cultural and political elites positioned culture as both an engine of American dominance and as a purveyor of peace in the Cold War, many of Israels American Jewish impresarios proclaimed publicly that cultural patronage of and exchange with Israel advanced Americas interests in the Middle East and helped spread the American way in the postwar world. Bringing Zion Home is the first book to shine a light squarely upon the role and importance of Israel in the arts, popular culture, and material culture of postwar America.

A Symposium on Architecture and Information Spelt in Atom-Letters

By: Miro Roman,Alice _ch3n81

How does coding change the way we think about architecture? This question opens up an important research perspective. In this book, Miro Roman and his AI Alice_ch3n81 develop a playful scenario in which they propose coding as the new literacy of information. They convey knowledge in the form of a project model that links the fields of architecture and information through two interwoven narrative strands in an “infinite flow” of real books. Focusing on the intersection of information technology and architectural formulation, the authors create an evolving intellectual reflection on digital architecture and computer science.
