    Extractions: Britannica CD Index Articles Dictionary Help (b . Nov. 14, 1861, Portage, Wis., U.S.d. March 14, 1932, San Marino, Calif.), American teacher and scholar who evolved a seminal theory of American history based on the influence of the frontier in shaping the character of people and democratic institutions over a period of almost 300 years. His overall emphasis, however, was on a multicausal interpretation of history, with such forces as politics, economics, culture, and geography all interreacting. Turner's penetrating analyses changed the direction of much American historical writing. Deeply influenced by his observations of Wisconsin life during boyhood days, Turner, while in graduate school at Johns Hopkins University, rejected the doctrine that American institutions could be traced mainly to European origins. He earned his Ph.D. at Johns Hopkins in 1900. As an instructor at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, from 1889, he demonstrated his own theories in a series of original essays. In the first, "The Significance of History" (1891), Turner expounded the idea that history was rewritten by each age in terms of its own conditions and must be so understood.

    Extractions: PEOPLE A-C D-H I-R ... Young, Brigham "The existence of an area of free land, its continuous recession, and the advance of American settlement westward explain American development." With these words, Frederick Jackson Turner laid the foundation for modern historical study of the American West and presented a "frontier thesis" that continues to influence historical thinking even today. Turner was born in Portage, Wisconsin, in 1861. His father, a journalist by trade and local historian by avocation, piqued Turner's interest in history. After his graduation from the University of Wisconsin in 1884, Turner decided to become a professional historian, and received his Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University in 1890. He served as a teacher and scholar at the University of Wisconsin from 1889 to 1910, when he joined Harvard's faculty. He retired in 1924 but continued his research until his death in 1932. Turner's contribution to American history was to argue that the frontier past best explained the distinctive history of the United States. He most cogently articulated this idea in "The Significance of the Frontier in American History," which he first delivered to a gathering of historians in
