Description
Now & Then: The Appalachian Magazine, Volume 14, Issue 03, published in 1997. The theme of this issue is Northern Appalachia. This issue turns its focus to Northern Appalachia, exploring questions of regional identity, industrial legacy, and cultural self-definition in areas often overlooked within broader Appalachian discourse. Through articles on the emergence of Northern Appalachian Studies, debates over cities such as Pittsburgh's regional identity, coalfield economic transformation, dairy farming struggles, environmental art initiatives, and alternative educational models, it examines how northern communities negotiate heritage amid social and economic change. Essays, fiction, poetry, and reviews further reflect on belonging, memory, and reinvention, presenting Northern Appalachia as a layered and evolving region shaped by industry, migration, faith traditions, and ongoing efforts toward renewal.
