4 Turner, Frederick Jackson
(1861-1932) Тернер, Фредерик ДжексонИсторик. В 1885-1910 преподавал в Висконсинском университете [ Wisconsin, University of], в 1910-24 - в Гарварде [ Harvard University], позднее научный работник Хантингтонской библиотеки [Henry E. Huntington Library]. Первоначально преподавал риторику и ораторское искусство, но вскоре обратился к истории США, прежде всего освоению Запада, написав докторскую диссертацию на тему "Характер и влияние торговли с индейцами в Висконсине" ["The Character and Influence of the Indian Trade in Wisconsin"] (1891). На съезде Ассоциации американских историков [ American Historical Association] в Чикаго выступил с докладом "Значение Фронтира в американской истории" ["The Significance of the Frontier in American History"] (1893), заявив о собственной теории Фронтира [ Turner thesis; Frontier Theory; Safety-Valve Doctrine]. Хотя эта теория поначалу оставалась незамеченной в сообществе историков, впоследствии Тернер обрел немало последователей; и сегодня практически нет историков, которые полностью отвергали бы его правоту. В 1920 опубликовал труд "Фронтир в американской истории" ["The Frontier in American History"], основанный во многом на его докладе. В 1933 (посмертно) удостоен Пулитцеровской премии [ Pulitzer Prize] за книгу "Значение "секций" в американской истории" ["The Significance of Sections in American History"] (1932).English-Russian dictionary of regional studies > Turner, Frederick Jackson
