	Lost Generation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		More generally, the term is being used for the generation of young people coming of age in the United States during and shortly after World War I.
		For this reason, the generation is sometimes known as the World War I Generation or the Roaring 20s Generation.
		The "Lost Generation" were said to be disillusioned by the large number of casualties of the First World War, cynical, disdainful of the Victorian notions of morality and propriety of their elders.

		Calling this relatively small group of struggling writers, students, hustlers, and drug addicts a "generation" was to make the claim that they were representative and important—the beginnings of a new trend, analogous to the influential Lost Generation.
		There is typically very little mention of women in a history of the early Beat Generation, and a strong argument can be made that this omission is largely a reflection of the sexism of the time rather than a reflection of the actual state of affairs.
		The Beats in general were a large influence on members of the new "counterculture", for example, in the case of Bob Dylan who became a close friend of Allen Ginsberg.

		The span of one generation is roughly the length of a phase of life.
		Generations come in four archetypes, always in the same order, whose phase-of-life positions comprise a constellation.

	Safe Haven \| Generations and Business Cycles Part II
		This generation was still steeped in the Jeffersonian concept of America as a nation of sturdy yeoman individualists, who reject the sort of collectivist politics then popular in Europe.
		The Progressive generation (born 1843-59) then in power had come of age in the midst of industrialization, and was more cognizant of the new realities of industrial America.
		According to the generational model, the fiscally conservative policies and financial self restraint of the 1950's is a natural consequence of the generational peer-personalities of the adult generations: cautious, risk-adverse Nomads in elderhood, team-playing, disciplined Heroes in mid-life, and compliant Artists in rising adulthood.

		We let the generations define themselves, and one of the things we've tried to do with that chart that you're looking at right now is to show the total flow of generational history in America and how their life cycles have evolved over time.

		To a later generation he seems an odd and unaccountable figure for the high role of national hero, yet he was as native and homespun as Lincoln, like him sprung from the common stock and learning his lessons from harsh experience, a figure blown to huge dimensions by the passions of civil war.
		A generation that discovered something praiseworthy in the "smartness" of Jim Fisk, in the burly acquisitiveness of Commodore Vanderbilt, or in the clever humbuggery of Barnum the Showman, certainly would judge with no very critical eyes the claims to greatness of a grim leader of armies who succeeded where so many before had failed.
		Yet so completely did the naive General reflect the spirit of the Gilded Age that his noisy followers, conspiring to confuse in the public mind southern reconstruction and capitalistic expansion, and hiding a precious set of rascals in the folds of the bloody flag, came near to making him President for a third term.

	ACVE - Career Development in Generation X
		Although persons in the two generations before Generation X-the Silent generation (1925-1945) and Boom generation (1946-1964)-interpret these behaviors as indicative of low career drive and ambition (Bradford and Raines 1992), it may be that Generation X just views the concept of career differently than did those before them.
		Generation X women who are in their twenties, likely to have been raised by working mothers, are better educated than the women in any other generation in U.S. history (Kruger 1994).
		The real asset individuals in Generation X bring to the workplace is their knowledge of technology and their ability to concentrate on a number of tasks at one time.

	Word Spy - 13th generation
		The generation born between 1961 and 1981, so-called because they are identified as the 13th generation since the founding of the United States.
		"Generation X," for example, is now accepted almost universally to describe people born from the early '60s to around 1980 (the cutoff dates vary widely).
		We label young Americans born between 1961 and 1981 the (Reactive) 13ers — partly because they are the 13th generation to know the U.S. flag, and also because of their lucklessness, the burden they feel from their "bad" reputation.

	Generational Cycles in Mass Psychology
		The biggest challenge for generational theory is to reconcile the psychological and familial aspect with the sociological.
		Of course, this event was generated outside the country, but one could say that it was the isolationist, reactive tendencies of the preceeding generation that left the national vulnerable.
		Generational cycles in the zeitgeist are longer, and seem to be related to the length of a biological generation.

		Heroes are conventional,über-powerful, homogeneous and devoted to serving the state, having a deep trust in authority and being the perfectsoldiers for a major war.
		As the chart aboveshows, there was no Hero generation born during the Civil War saeculum; Nomads (the Gilded Generation) rather than Heroes becamethe cannon-fodder for the Civil War, while the Progressive generation, despite having been raised during an Unravelling with thekind of parenting Heroes receive, became Artists.
		The hypothesis for why this is,according to Generations and The Fourth Turning, is that the Civil War came about ten years too early; theadult generations allowed the worst aspects of their generational personalities to come through; and the Progressives grew upscarred rather than ennobled.

	Main Currents in American Thought, Vol. III
		All three were children of an earlier century, endowed with the solidest Yankee-Puritan qualities of mind and heart, unyielding as the rock ledges of their native fields; and they found the experience of living in the late nineteenth century, of adjusting their eighteenth-century minds to the demands of a sordid capitalistic order, a difficult business.
		It was not possible for the House of Adams, with its old-fashioned rectitude, to accept the ways of the Gilded Age, and in the end they turned aside from the main-traveled road to follow their own paths.
		To her, every suppliant was a universe in himself, to be judged apart, on his own merits, by his love for her,-by no means on his orthodoxy, or his conventional standing in the Church, or according to his correctness in defining the nature of the Trinity.

		Moreover, individuals are not necessarily in a generation just contiguous to that of their parents, unless they belong to the "last wave" of a particular generation (those born in the generation's last few birthyears).
		These Silent Generation parents would still be in their twenties and thirties and still themselves under the influence of their Greatest Generation elders in their forties and fifties, including school principals, scout leaders, Dr. Spock, and Walt Disney.
		As with the family generations, I am not releasing to the public at large information on family members belonging to historical generations born after the year 1900 (that is, the Greatest Generation, the Silent Generation, the Boom Generation, Generation X, the Millennial Generation, and the New Adaptive Generation).

	H-SHGAPE Book Reviews: Tucker, Mugwumps: Public Moralists of the Gilded Age (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Tucker argues that as the generation of Mugwumps shed their religious faith in favor of secular liberalism they held on even more tightly to Wayland's conception of moral philosophy, as it offered them an ethical anchor in a Godless world.
		While they made little headway on this issue during their lifetimes, Mugwumps argued that tariff duties violated the general good, and were in fact an unholy marriage between greedy manufacturers and corrupt politicians.
		Their commitment to the free market and free trade is suspect, given the academy's general distrust of the market as well as the mixed economic and human consequences of neoliberal trade agreements such as NAFTA.

		In that case it is possible that Thomas was born in the house in the Krijtstraat.

	MORROW COUNTY, OHIO 1880 HISTORY - CHAPTER IX - CHESTER TOWNSHIP
		The soil, generally, is a rich loam, mixed with a limestone gravel, a combination that furnish an almost inexhaustible resource for grain raising.
		The combat took place at the cross-roads by William Mitchell's, on the occasion of a general muster, and was witnessed by a large crowd of interested spectators.
		This was a source of considerable irritation to the younger men of the community, and, one day, the Indian's horse was found without its owner, from which it was generally supposed that some of the whites, in a fit of anger., had waylaid and killed him.

		Wilson's general view of the period was conservative in treating most specific issues, even as he recognized the wholesale change the country had passed through.
		The first generation of trained historians was now established in higher education, determined to mold the study of history for both the public and students.
		Few generations had seen so much new science and invention, as symbolized in the elaborate expositions which these authors treated in detail as both concentrations of progressive facts and as symbols of emotional changes for the better.

	Lifecourse Associates: Generations of American Leaders
		Once readers become accustomed to thinking about generations as birthyear-defined groups with their own location in history, their own attitudes and beliefs, and their own sense of collective identity, they want to know more about the timing of each generation’s political ascendancy and decline.
		Foremost is our computation of each generation's “national leadership share” for every odd-numbered year since 1775.
		From 1789 to the present, each generation’s national leadership share is a simple average of (1) its percentage share of all members in the U.S. House of Representatives, (2) its percentage share of all U.S. Senators, and (3) its percentage share of all state governors.
