  9. Revisiting Roland Barthes' 'Mythologies'

    Ferdinand de Saussure defined semiology as "a science which studies the role of signs as part of social life." We all practice it before we learn the word: High school drills it into us, if nothing else.

  13. Early 20th-century marathons found a starting line in Laurel [History Matters]

    From 1909 until 1939, marathons were run from Laurel to Washington or Baltimore. After the first few marathons, they not only became AAU-sanctioned, but the race was one of the qualifying marathons for the U.S. Olympic team. There was one constant in all those years: The starting line was in front of the Laurel Hotel on the corner of Main Street and Washington Pike (Route 1southbound).

  19. 10 things you might not know about razed Chicago

    Ever since the Great Fire of 1871, a cycle of destruction and rebuilding has been central to the Chicago story.

Also this month, speculation arose (and was quickly squelched) about tearing down Wrigley Field's iconic scoreboard. And today is the 10th anniversary of one of the most unusual acts of demolition in city history &mdash; Mayor Richard M. Daley's middle-of-the-night destruction of Meigs Field.
