19th Century History Symposium: Hearst Fellows
July 27, 2 pm
Come to our Symposium, as this years Hearst scholars present original research on America in the 1830s.
Each summer, The Mount Vernon Hotel Museum hosts the Hearst Research Fellows generously funded by the Hearst Foundation. This years Fellows are Oberlin Universitys Max Ripps, who looks at 19th century popular culture, exploring the connections between westward expansion, and rapid urbanization to early 19th-century art, theater and literature. From Williams College, Isaiah Krugman, explores finance and banking in 19th-century New York City, specifically tracing the increased influx of goods into the city after the completion of the Erie Canal to the rise of financial institutions and the seperation of occupations into white and blue collar.
