Cultural factions are an intrinsic part of the fabric of American politics. But does this mean that there is no room for compromise when groups hold radically different viewpoints on major issues? Not necessarily. For example, in a June 2003 Time/CNN poll, 49 per cent of respondents identified themselves as pro-choice and 46 per cent identified as pro-life. But in the same poll, 81 per cent indicated that abortion should be "always legal" or "sometimes legal," suggesting that "pro-life" and "pro-choice" are not discrete positions but allow room for compromise. How do legislators legislate poli

Cynthia Ozick has asserted a dominant voice in Jewish-American literature for the past fifteen years.  Pinsker places Ozick in the context of such writers as Philip Roth, Bernard Malamud, and Saul Bellow, showing how her literary vision and scope of topic differ significantly.  Pinsker argues that, more than any other contemporary Jewish-American writer, Ozick deals in her work with the difficulties of non-assimilation to her literary heritage, which she insists has become threadbare, and that she has expanded the possibilities of what Jewish-American fiction can be. Through a chronological

In this annotated diary, Sallie McNeill chronicles thoughts, observations, and details of her daily life during the Civil War and Reconstruction eras.   This remarkably well-preserved document tells McNeill’s story from her days as a student in the female department of Baylor College at Independence until her death in 1867.   McNeill’s story—common to the era and place and still intensely personal—lets readers glimpse the numbing expectations of a young woman’s proper behavior, moral referencing of those living under the influence of the second Great Awakening, intellec
