One of the 20th century’s most important and influential modernist poets was Hilda Doolittle, more commonly known as H.D. While other artists struggled to find a new mode of expression, H.D. found imagism and created intense poems delving into very specific depictions. In “Sheltered Garden,” H.D. employs intense imagery using nature in order to put forth an opinion or viewpoint, which is also highlighted by another poem titled, “Sea Rose.” By analyzing these two poems, one can more fully comprehend the modernist movement/mentality and how H.D. shaped her own form of poetry. In “Sheltered Garden,” the poet uses the image of a garden to not only push against society’s constraint of women, but also its imposed ideas of beauty, creating tension between the natural and the unnatural.
Millford plantation is a historic place located on SC 261, west of Pinewood, SC. Built in 1839-1841, Millford Plantation is considered by many to be the finest example of Greek revival residential architecture in America. The house is located in such a remote section of rural SC that it comes to a surprise to first time visitors, who must drive over miles of dirt roads and through thick forests to reach the house. The house has massive columns, sixteen foot windows, a domed rotunda enclosing a spectacular staircase. All these impressive features are inherent in Greek Rival architecture (Classical American Homes).

President Lincoln signed the omnibus bill, due to graveyards becoming packed, which allowed him to buy new cemetery grounds. Although, President Lincoln had just ordered the purchase of new cemetery grounds they were filling up quickly as well due to the many injured soldiers that had died in the Battle of the Second Wilderness and the Forty-Day’s Campaign. Both Soldier’s Home and Alexandria National Cemetery were reaching their limit of one thousand burials. Washington started to fill up with dead bodies faster than they could get rid of them, which caused federal officials to choose Arlington as the new burial ground place.

Their idea was that students and wealthy people should “settle” in impoverished neighborhood and provide services and improve the lives of the neighborhoods and those living in them. Settlement houses were designed to help the poor, including immigrants, with the help of middle class workers, in an effort to improve the neighborhoods in the poorest parts of the cities.

The state of Georgia began in 1733. The coast along the Altamaha River was not much more than just a tidal swamp and mud. The early Spanish settlers named this section of marshland the Guale Territory. There was not much incentive to develop the coastal marshes because the original Georgia grant limited each family to 50 acres and prohibited the use of slave workers (Sullivan 124). Therefore, large plantations found in South Carolina and Virginia were not available to the Georgia Colony. The Hofwyl-Broadfield Plantation is relatively new, historically speaking, because of Georgia’s long history. This once beautiful plantation represents the history and culture of Georgia’s coast. The estate began its journey through history known as Broadface.

Having a basic need to improve their daily quality of life through education and health services. They were the first to benefit from the lack of welfare programs of the time.

The Big House, the largest prehistoric native American structure in North America, is a four-story building constructed by ancient Sonoran Desert people, the Hohokam. The Hohokam were native American tribes that vanished in the 1400’s leaving behind archaeological evidence of a sophisticated culture revealing advanced canal systems, and the “Casa Grande,” a big house in the Sonoran Desert valley. Missionary, explorer and mapmaker Eusibio Francisco Kino, was the first European to discover the site in 1694 and named it “Casa Grande”. After the railroad came through in 1879, travelers would scratch their names into the walls, some took artifacts, even pieces of the wall were taken as souvenirs. In 1889, Congress voted to take action to protect the site from vandalism and looting.
