A Rosetta Key for U.S. History: Renewal or Rigidification?
Bu audiokitab haqqında
       This work explores a generational history from America's Colonial period to the United States of contemporary times. A novel historical approach will rely on generational markers every 15th  year, rather than yearly astronomical dates. This method will make history more accessible and its patterns more apparent. Identified from cultures presented in an earlier volume, the phasings are: 1) "Invisible" Beginnings; 2) Establishment and Testing; 3) Novel Consolidation and Opening Up, 4) Crisis and Creativity; 5) Empire and Inclusion, and 6) Rigidification or Renewal. This history does not seek to hide or obscure the shadow side of America, nor does it fail to present beauty and light, especially during the 30s generational phase.
    One discovery prompted by this generational time chart was to more fully consider the importance of New Spain in understanding U.S. history. A second and related theme is inclusion of the Indigenous, whose influence extends to all phases of American history. Come journey with us and experience historical events and people's lives generation by generation, and see how they fit into historical phases. Such an awareness, the author contends, will help us to make the generational choice of our times.
