It focuses especially on the various related strands of political, philosophical, and intellectual and cultural biography as well as on the intersection between biography, historiography, and philosophy. Individual texts from the fifteenth to the eighteenth century are presented as examples of how the ancient collective biographical tradition ? as represented above all by Plutarch, Suetonius, Diogenes Laertius, and Jerome ? was received and transformed in the Renaissance and beyond in accordance with the needs of humanism, religious controversy, politics, and the development of modern philosophy and science. 410 0$aThe Renaissance Society of America$v7. 606 $aBiography$xSocial aspects$zEurope$xHistory 606 $aHistoriography$xSocial aspects$zEurope$xHistory 606 $aBiography$xPhilosophy 606 $aHistoriography$xPhilosophy 606 $aBiography$yTo 500$xHistory and criticism 606 $aBiography as a literary form$xHistory 606 $aEuropean literature$yEarly modern, 1500-1700$xHistory and criticism 607 $aEurope$xHistory$y17th century 615 0$aBiography$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aHistoriography$xSocial aspects$xHistory. 615 0$aBiography$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aHistoriography$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aBiography$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aBiography as a literary form$xHistory. 615 0$aEuropean literature$xHistory and criticism. 676 $a940.252 702 $aBaker$b Patrick 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910792897403321 996 $aBiography, historiography, and modes of philosophizing$93775214 997 $aUNINA LEADER 06710nam 2200757Ia 450 001 9910956231903321 005 20211101224357.0 010 $a9786612270543 010 $a9781282270541 010 $a1282270540 010 $a9780299231033 010 $a0299231038 024 7 $a2027/heb08751 035 $a(CKB)1000000000817486 035 $a(EBL)3444848 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000335951 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11268889 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000335951 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10278436 035 $a(PQKB)11170780 035 $a(OCoLC)646813641 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse12379 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3444848 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10315765 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL227054 035 $a(dli)HEB08751 035 $a(MiU)MIU01000000000000011660271 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3444848 035 $a(Perlego)4476023 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000817486 100 $a20081015d2009 ub 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|||||||nn|n 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aColonial crucible $eempire in the making of the modern American state /$fedited by Alfred W.

Colonial Crucible: Empire in the Making of the Modern American State reveals how this experiment in direct territorial rule subtly but profoundly shaped U.S. policy and practice-both abroad and, crucially, at home. Edited by Alfred W. McCoy and Francisco A. Scarano, the essays in this volume show how the challenge of ruling such far-flung territories strained the U.S. state to its limits, creating both the need and the opportunity for bold social experiments not yet possible within the United States itself. Plunging Washington's rudimentary bureaucracy into the white heat of nationalist revolution and imperial rivalry, colonialism was a crucible of change in American statecraft. From an expansion of the federal government to the creation of agile public-private networks for more effective global governance, U.S. empire produced far-reaching innovations. Moving well beyond theory, this volume takes the next step, adding a fine-grained, empirical texture to the study of U.S. imperialism by analyzing its specific consequences. Across a broad range of institutions-policing and prisons, education, race relations, public health, law, the military, and environmental management-this formative experience left a lasting institutional imprint. With each essay distilling years, sometimes decades, of scholarship into a concise argument, Colonial Crucible reveals the roots of a legacy evident, most recently, in Washington's misadventures in the Middle East. 517 3 $aEmpire in the making of the modern American state 606 $aImperialism$zUnited States 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1897-1901 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1901-1909 607 $aUnited States$xTerritorial expansion 615 0$aImperialism 676 $a973.88 701 $aMcCoy$b Alfred W$0290380 701 $aScarano$b Francisco A$g(Francisco Antonio)$01006237 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910956231903321 996 $aColonial crucible$92315268 997 $aUNINA
