North American Immigrant Letters, Diaries, and Oral Histories

North American Indian Drama

North American Indian Drama, Second Edition brings together 250+ full-text plays representing the stories and creative energies of American Indian and First Nation playwrights of the twentieth century. Many of the plays are previously unpublished or hard to find, and they represent a wealth of dramatic material that is often overlooked or inaccessible. Together, the plays demonstrate Native theater’s diversity of tribal traditions and approaches to drama—melding conventional dramatic form with ancient storytelling and ritual performance elements, experimenting with traditional ideas of time and narrative, or challenging Western dramatic structure.

The collection begins in the early 1930s with The Cherokee Night and other works by R. Lynn Riggs, the first American Indian playwright to have his works produced. It progresses through the 20th century with plays produced by the Native American Theatre Ensemble (NATE) and other companies of the 1970s and 1980s, including Spiderwoman Theater, the longest continually running Native American or women’s theatre group in North America. The collection also includes contemporary plays produced by Toronto’s Native Earth Performing Arts, Seattle’s Red Eagle Soaring, New York’s Coatlicue Theater Company, and other groups.

ProQuest Historical Chicago Tribune

When first incorporated, Chicago was a swampy little town populated only by a few hundred people. Soon after, the historical Chicago Tribune (1849-1986) began chronicling the city’s challenges, achievements, and evolution into one of America’s finest cities.

The Chicago Tribune provided detailed accounts of the Great Fire of 1871, which killed hundreds, nearly destroyed the city, resulted in many reforms, and spurred new growth. In 1893 and 1909, the newspaper’s special Chicago Jubilee issues described and celebrated the city’s tremendous progress. It also reported on the Progressive Movement, followed the works of Nobel Peace Prize-winning social reformer Jane Addams, exposed the activities of mobsters like Al Capone, and reported on the city’s machine politics. To incisively convey ideas, opinions, and emotions, the Chicago Tribune relied on Pulitzer Prize-winning John T. McCutcheon’s editorial cartoons.

Beginning in the 1940s, the newspaper featured editorial cartoonist Herbert L. Block (“Herblock”), who used his drawings to express indignation with political leaders and to “raise hell.” He coined the term “McCarthyism” in the 1950s and was unrelenting in his graphic characterization of Richard Nixon.

RNP Cincinnati Enquirer

Sports, music, historic architecture and unique culinary staples, like “Cincinnati Chili” (which is served over spaghetti) and Goetta (a German-inspired fried meat and grain sausage) are central to the city’s culture. Cincinnati’s major league baseball team, the Cincinnati Reds, originated as America’s first professional baseball team, the Cincinnati Red Stockings. A vibrant jazz scene, which continues to the present day, contributed to the careers of such luminaries and Louis Armstrong, Jellyroll Morton and Hoagy Carmichael. Additionally, several Fortune 500 companies are headquartered in Cincinnati, including Procter & Gamble, Kroger and Macy’s, Inc. The digitized pages of this historic newspaper (1841–2009) provide researchers from a range of studies, including history, political science, economics and genealogy, with reports on world affairs, national events and a record of regional topics related to agriculture, manufacturing, government and people from the exciting, dynamic viewpoint of a quintessential western boomtown.
