Related Entries Online Sources Archival/Heritage Sources Published Sources Politician - Federal - MHR Born: 1876 Trawalla, Victoria. Died: 1953. Born 18 September 1876 in Trawalla, Victoria, Scullin ran a grocer’s shop in Ballarat from 1900 to 1910. In 1906 he stood for the federal seat of Ballarat against Alfred Deakin and not surprisingly, lost. From 1906 to 1910, Scullin travelled throughout Victoria as an organiser for the Australian Workers’ Union. This helped him to establish a strong electoral base and led to his winning the seat of Corangamite in the 1910 federal elections. He lost this seat in 1913. He won the safe Labor seat of Yarra in Melbourne in 1922, and held this seat until 1949. He became deputy leader of the Labor Party in 1927 and became leader a year later. He defeated Bruce in the federal election of 1929 and served as Prime Minister until his defeat in 1931. He died in 1953. Related Entries for Scullin, James Henry

by William Dean Howells Terms Contents Henry James, Jr. Henry James, Jr.
he events of Mr. James's lifeas we agree to understand eventsmay be told in a very few words. His race is Irish on his father's side and Scotch on his mother's, to which mingled strains the generalizer may attribute, if he likes, that union of vivid expression and dispassionate analysis which has characterized his work from the first. There are none of those early struggles with poverty, which render the lives of so many distinguished Americans monotonous reading, to record in his case: the cabin hearth-fire did not light him to the youthful pursuit of literature; he had from the start all those advantages which, when they go too far, become limitations. He was born in New York city in the year 1843, and his first lessons in life and letters were the best which the metropolisso small in the perspective diminishing to that datecould afford. In his twelfth year his family went abroad, and after some stay in England made a long sojourn in France and Switzerland. They returned to America in 1860, placing themselves at Newport, and for a year or two Mr. James was at the Harvard Law School, where, perhaps, he did not study a great deal of law. His father removed from Newport to Cambridge in 1866, and there Mr. James remained till he went abroad, three years later, for the residence in England and Italy which, with infrequent visits home, has continued ever since. But that artistic impartiality which puzzled so many in the treatment of Daisy Miller is one of the qualities most valuable in the eyes of those who care how things are done, and I am not sure that it is not Mr. James's most characteristic quality. As "frost performs the effect of fire," this impartiality comes at last to the same result as sympathy. We may be quite sure that Mr. James does not like the peculiar phase of our civilization typified in Henrietta Stackpole; but he treats her with such exquisite justice that he lets US like her. It is an extreme case, but I confidently allege it in proof.

The Conquest of Civilization (selections)
By James Henry Breasted
Publisher's introduction
These extracts are intended only to generate hypotheses that some enterprising students might wish to investigate. Here are some of the questions raised by the following extracts from Breasted:
  • Note Breasted's adoption of the ideology of modern science and its laboratory method. This method aimed to isolate things, to remove or at least control their relation with the world outside the laboratory in order to reduce things to their essence and therefore expose any laws of motion that are truely universal. In historiography at the time, there was a comparable obsession with hard evidence, a reduction of things to bundles of empirical traits, at the expense of their representation as processes. By embracing the ideology of the laboratory, did historians create for themselves static objects of investigation that are profoundly a-historical?
  • Did this undercut the nineteenth-century ideological function of historiography (historic consciousness being the cornerstone of liberty) and contribute to historiography's subsequent decline in relation to other social sciences in the twentieth century?
  • The close association between Europe's predatory stance toward the rest of the world and the origins of world historiography has long been recognized. The world historian, Sir Walter Raleigh, is a case in point. Other world cultures generally don't assume that historiography should extend beyond one's own roots and relations with immediate neighbors. However, to suggest that world historiography was merely an ideolgy suited to the age of empire is probably a gross simplification. What was there about Europe's own history that required such a predatory stance and an absorption of the globe into its own history (as in von Ranke's

    James Henry Brown James Henry Brown was born in 1873 in Virginia and moved to Connecticut with his mother, Sarah Brown , in the mid 1870's. The 1880 census shows that a seven year old James Brown lived in the household of Charles Chester as a servant while Sarah Brown lived in the household of Miner Lean. James grew up in Groton and graduated from Groton Heights in 1888. James Henry Brown was married to Celestine Binks Groton Heights Class of 1888. The Class of 1888 in 1944. James Henry Brown is second from the left in the back row. This picture shows James Brown working in a power plant. This may be at the forerunner of Electric Boat, the New London Ship and Engine Company, or it may be at the old municipal building which was located where Seahorse on the Thames is now. James also worked reassembling trains. Before the railroad bridge was built over the Thames River, trains coming from New London came across the river on ferries and were reassembled in Groton. This required a large work force. James Henry Brown was active in the community, especially in black organizations. He was a Freemason and was instrumental in having the Masonic Hall built in New London off Hempstead St. This picture is believed to be taken at a convention in Philadelphia.

He was also president of the LDS Eastern States Mission. By his own count, he had two religions, Mormonism and the Democratic Party, and he alternately praised and criticized both. As one who was intimately acquainted with every major religious and political figure in Utah and elsewhere over six decadesand as the father of a future LDS apostlehe mustered surprisingly profound and entertaining insights in his memoirs. Par of his prominence was due to his aristocratic flair. Apostle Matthew Cowley admitted that he "always had to take another look when [he] passed Brother James H. Moyle on the street." Nor was this large-framed, gray-haired statesman one to mince words. It is the raw edge to his comments that makes his autobiography so memorable. This former political kingpen's life is also recounted in LDS church president Gordon B. Hinckley's James Henry Moyle: The Story of a Distinguished American and Honored Churchman , who, by his own account, refers to Moyle as a colorful, highly opinionated, uncensored voice, who has a unique value.

James wrote 20 novels, 112 stories, 12 plays and a number of literary criticism. His models were Dickens, Balzac, and Hawthorne. James once said that he learned more of the craft of writing from Balzac "than from anyone else". "A novel is in its broadest sense a personal, a direct impression of life: that, to begin with, constitutes its value, which is greater or less according to the intensity of the impression." (from The Art of Fiction Henry James was born in New York City into a wealthy family. His father, Henry James Sr., was one of the best-known intellectuals in mid-nineteenth-century America, whose friends included Thoreau, Emerson and Hawthorne. James made little money from his novels. Once his friend, the writer Edith Wharton , secretly arranged him a royal advance of $8,000 for THE IVORY TOWER (1917), but the money actually came from Wharton's royalty account with the publisher. When Wharton sent him a letter bemoaning her unhappy marriage, James replied: "Keep making the movements of life." In his youth James traveled back and forth between Europe and America. He studied with tutors in Geneva, London, Paris, Bologna and Bonn At the age of nineteen he briefly attended Harvard Law School, but was more interested in literature than studying law. James published his first short story, 'A Tragedy of Errors' two years later, and then devoted himself to literature. In 1866-69 and 1871-72 he was contributor to the

    By Victoria N. Alexander
    Determining One's Fate:
    Henry James's Autobiography In his preface to Portrait of a Lady (New York Edition) James commends Turgenev's method of first inventing a character which subsequently offered that character's fate (4). It can be said that James applied this procedure to his own autobiography. Having completed every novel he would ever write, he was, theoretically at least, in full possession of his character as a great novelist and therefore able to impose the pattern of this fate on his personal history as a small boy. As he reviewed his past writing A Small Boy and Others , James consciously "read into it" certain recurring motifs, aided by the power of retrospect to see what was formerly not observable, if even extant at all. Although James's definite interest in writing does not emerge until much later, in the second volume of his autobiography The Middle Years , James as a small boy is presented as a writer, albeit yet unformed, a writer in the embryonic stage. It is only because the mature autobiographer is provided with hindsight that he is able to cast the small boy in this light, the small boy whose existence while limited to a meaningless present was not, apparently, directed. James contrives to demonstrate that his early life was not spent idly, however much it might have seemed so to the "others." He offers an apology for the fact that at the time of his boyhood his fate was not at all obvious and he had nothing "to show" but appeared like "some commercial traveler who has lost the key to his packed case of samples and can but pass for a fool while other exhibitions go forward." James's family and friends, it seems, observed him from perspective of readers of a novel whose point of view is limited first or third person and whose solution is kept till the end.

    Biography of Henry James (1843-1916)
    Henry James (1843-1916) was born on April 15, 1843, to Henry James, Sr., and his wife Mary Walsh Robertson. His older brother William was born in 1842, and younger siblings Garth Wilkinson, Robertson, and Alice were born in 1845, 1846, and 1848, respectively. Henry Sr., the son of an Irish immigrant, was one of thirteen children, born in Albany, New York. By the time his own children were born, he had inherited a great deal in wealth from his father, and the James family, at the time of Henry Jr.'s birth, lived in New York City, where Henry Sr. devoted his time to the study of theology, philosophy, and mysticism, rejecting his father's Presbyterian Churchto follow the teachings of Swedish Christian mystic Emanuel Swedenborg. The James children were educated in a variety of often unorthodox circumstances ­ sometimes at schools, sometimes with private tutors, always with access to books and new experiences. Margaret Fuller, Washington Irving, William Makepeace Thackeray, and George Ripley visited to the James home during Henry Jr.'s boyhood. In 1855, the James family embarked on a three year-long trip to Geneva, London, and Paris ­ an experience that influenced Henry Jr.'s decision, as an adult, to live and write in Europe rather than his native America. Upon their return from Europe, Henry Sr. moved the family to Cambridge, allowing for continued contact with prominent writers and thinkers, including nearby Concord's Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, and Bronson Alcott. Henry Jr. was a voracious reader and spent his teenage years divided between Cambridge, Europe, and Newport, Rhode Island, where he studied for a time with painter William Morris Hunt. His brother William was found to be a more adept artist, and Henry soon discontinued his lessons, turning instead to writing.
