    Kathleen Kenyon

    Some of the more remarkable archaeological discoveries in the 20th century were made by Dame Kathleen Kenyon. Kathleen Kenyon was born into the heart of the English scholarly community and with all the help that influence and connections could provide became one of the foremost excavators in Great Britain. Even though Miss Kenyon was purported to be a Christian, she did not argue for the biblical account perspective when referencing her excavations. She believed that archaeology was needed to prove the historicity of the Bible; but more importantly, that archaeology was needed to aid us in the interpretation of the "older parts of the Old Testament, which from the nature of their sources cannot be read as a straightforward record (Kenyon, 266). Remembered for her substantial contributions to the field of archaeology Miss. Kenyon brought with her refined versions of the excavation method pioneered by Mortimer Wheeler. Along with inventing field methods that strengthened the science, Kathleen shaped the discipline of archaeology with her contribution to institutions, training of future archaeologists and publications. Another important aspect of Kathleen Kenyon's archaeological career was her role as a teacher. From 1948 to 1962 she lectured in Levantine Archaeology at the Institute of Archaeology, University College London. Kenyon's teaching, complemented by her excavations at Jericho and Jerusalem (which successively formed her 'field school'), helped to train a generation of archaeologists, who went on themselves to teach in Britain, Australia, Canada, the United States, Denmark and elsewhere.…

    Christine Stansell

    The article “Women, Children, and the Uses of the Streets: Class and Gender Conflict in New York City, 1850-1860,” Christine Stansell argues that during the nineteenth century the streets of New York were grounds of different outlooks toward children. The kids who wandered the city streets such as playing, huckstering, and committing theft or homeless, were an indication of the typical middle class moral failure due to their parents. Moralists often saw the home as a sanctified area that protected children from the harm of society. Parents whom worked, often their children worked too and did not receive the family support that social reformers claimed were essential to their spiritual and moral improvement. In New York City, the success of these reformers in safeguarding public areas indicated both the control of the middle class and the idea of women being encouraging role models in the home.…

    “He decides to adopt the role of voyeur and look out in order to go unnoticed and noticed at the same time.” (Lorna Simpson Video Part I) Although Lorna Simpson has been classified as a photographer, her art more appropriately approaches painting, sculpture, and even film, in its relation to its audience. The surfaces that she reproduces her photos on stray away from the traditional glossy material that tend to reflect light, and rather on surfaces that seem to absorb it, such as felt. Through her work she addresses themes of cultural, political, and social significance; giving meaning and telling a narrative through her art, rather than having it be "just a picture."…
