Synopsis

The "Connecticut Wide-Awake Songster" is a compendium of songs that emerged during the political fervor of the 1860 presidential campaign, particularly representing the interests and enthusiasm of the Republican Party. This collection, characterized by its catchy melodies and impassioned lyrics, serves as both a historical artifact and a reflection of the cultural zeitgeist of the time. The literary style is marked by its accessibility, with a focus on vernacular language that resonates with everyday citizens, while the thematic content engages with contemporary issues such as abolitionism and national unity, encapsulating the hopes and aspirations of a nation on the brink of transformation. The author, attributed to various contributors, is emblematic of the collaborative spirit of the era, where amateur lyricists and experienced musicians alike sought to influence public sentiment through song. This collective effort not only highlights the democratic nature of 19th-century American culture but also reveals the passion of citizens who were keenly aware of the implications of the election. Their diverse backgrounds and experiences inform the rich tapestry of voices captured in this work. For historians, music aficionados, and casual readers alike, the "Connecticut Wide-Awake Songster" stands as a vital resource for understanding the interplay of music and politics during a pivotal moment in American history. It is a remarkable window into the ways in which song served as both a tool for persuasion and a medium for communal expression, making it an essential read for those seeking to explore the cultural dimensions of the Civil War era.

    The Puritans were English Protestants who emerged in the 16th and 17th centuries, deeply dissatisfied with the scope of the English Reformation. They believed that the Church of England had not fully distanced itself from Roman Catholic customs and needed further reform to become a more authentic expression of Protestant beliefs. In their view, many of the Catholic practices, such as hierarchical structures, rituals, and liturgies, had been retained within the Church of England, making it insufficiently Protestant. Their aim was to purify the Church, which led them to form various groups advocating for deeper piety in both personal worship and theological belief. 
    A central element of Puritanism was its adherence to Calvinist theology, which was rooted in Reformed Christian principles. This alignment with Calvinism marked them as part of a broader movement that sought to reject Roman Catholic influences, but also led to tension with other Protestant groups, particularly those within the Church of England who were not as radical in their reforms. Many Puritans advocated for a more decentralized church structure. Some even pushed for independent congregations, which would exist outside the framework of the established Church of England and avoid its perceived corruptions. 
    The Puritans’ influence reached a peak during the Protectorate, when the political and religious landscape of England underwent significant shifts. By the late 1630s, Puritans had developed an alliance with emerging business interests, legislative resistance to the monarchy, and Scottish Presbyterians, with whom they shared theological and political concerns. These alliances helped the Puritans gain substantial power during the First English Civil War (1642–1646). Their victory in the war and the subsequent rise of Puritan influence under Oliver Cromwell allowed them to have a profound impact on English governance and society.

    The military is often perceived by well-meaning Americans as the last stronghold against the progressive march through America’s institutions. But this is no longer simply the case. Our Armed Forces were once the envy of the world, in large part because we selected based on merit, and instilled in our fighting men an unshakeable military ethos. Both the ethos and the selection, however, have been in steady decline as the Department of Defense succumbs to a dangerous ideology: selection and promotion based on racial and gender identity. This has already led to major problems and may well lead us down the path of disaster.

    Subjectified is a book about subjects, objects, and verbs. It is also a book about clothing-optional resorts, masturbation circles, and sex parties. 
     
     
     
    Suzannah Weiss takes the listener through her adventures as a sex and relationship writer to explore how we can create a world with less objectification and more subjectification—placing women and other marginalized groups in the subject role of sentences and actions. Offering a deeply personal critique of sexual empowerment movements, Weiss presents a way forward that focuses on what women desire, not what men desire from them. Subjectified calls for women everywhere to inhabit their bodies and hearts—to look through their own eyes and speak as "I." 
     
     
     
    The book is for everybody wanting to understand themselves as subjects. Wholeheartedly, the author invites you to follow her search for subjecthood and, should you desire, forge your own path out of objecthood.
