A well-known journalist and travel writer, George Kennan went to Cuba in 1898 to report on the war and conditions on the island for American readers. After the war, he delivered his lecture “Cuba and the Cubans” to audiences across the United States, depicting a backwards, inferior culture unprepared for independence. Frank Jacob’s introduction offers rich context for his life, lecture, and influence, arguing that he contributed to the shift in public perception of Cuba from respected ally to wayward neighbor in need of American intervention. This critical edition illuminates the interaction between journalism, public opinion, and U.S. foreign policy at a key moment in the U.S.-Cuban relationship that still reverberates today. | 出版日期 | Book 2018 | 关键词 | George Kennan; Cuba and the United States; Cuba and the Cubans; U; S; -Cuban relations; colonial Cuba; Span | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-67453-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-88432-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-67453-7 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2018 |
