Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Miscellany: Presented to John Macdonald Mackay, LL. D., July, 1914 This book was already prepared, in honour of Professor Mackay's completing his thirtieth year of service, and had begun to go to press, when his forthcoming retirement was announced. The news drew forth the second of the Addresses, a mark of regard from the students who have been recently in his classes. The rest of the volume has been left as it stood, except that some names have been added to the first Address. This is signed by donors to the publication fund, by the writers and painters who contribute, and by some few helpers more. The hundred and eighty and odd signatures appended to these two testimonies must be taken to speak for a much larger congregation, which is now hardly to be reached. The good wishes of all will be yet the keener for the sense that Professor Mackay is now bidding farewell to his labours as a teacher and to his long campaign in Liverpool. In Liverpool nearly all of the writers have also laboured, in the academic vineyard. Each of them is answerable for what he, or she, has signed, and for that alone. The Editor has obtained Professor Mackay's permission to include the papers and addresses which appear in appendix form. The Editor owes manifold thanks to those who have co-operated in this tribute, and especially to Miss M. Eileen Lyster, who has kindly made the index, and to Miss Doris Millett, assistant-secretary to the University Press, who has been at the pains to verify the greater part of the proof corrections. The portrait by Mr. Augustus John has been reproduced with the approval of the artist and by leave of its owners, the University Club, Liverpool, an institution of which Professor Mackay was a founder. The other portrait is reproduced by the courtesy of E. Rawlins, Esq., of Kentmere, from a photograph taken by him. The collotypes of the drawings of Henry the Eighth's Navy are the work of the Clarendon Press, Oxford. The Editor wishes to acknowledge the skill and care with which a somewhat difficult task has been carried out, under the superintendence of Mr. W. G. Brandwood, by the printers, Messrs. C. Tinling & Co., Ltd. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Victorian Culture and the Origin of Disciplines by : Bernard Lightman
Download or read book Victorian Culture and the Origin of Disciplines written by Bernard Lightman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-06-20 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current studies in disciplinarity range widely across philosophical and literary contexts, producing heated debate and entrenched divergences. Yet, despite their manifest significance for us today seldom have those studies engaged with the Victorian origins of modern disciplinarity. Victorian Culture and the Origin of Disciplines adds a crucial missing link in that history by asking and answering a series of deceptively simple questions: how did Victorians define a discipline; what factors impinged upon that definition; and how did they respond to disciplinary understanding? Structured around sections on professionalization, university curriculums, society journals, literary genres and interdisciplinarity, Victorian Culture and the Origin of Disciplines addresses the tangled bank of disciplinarity in the arts, humanities, social sciences and natural sciences including musicology, dance, literature, and art history; classics, history, archaeology, and theology; anthropology, psychology; and biology, mathematics and physics. Chapters examine the generative forces driving disciplinary formation, and gauge its success or failure against social, cultural, political, and economic environmental pressures. No other volume has focused specifically on the origin of Victorian disciplines in order to track the birth, death, and growth of the units into which knowledge was divided in this period, and no other volume has placed such a wide array of Victorian disciplines in their cultural context.
Book Synopsis Victorian Perceptions of Renaissance Architecture by : Katherine Wheeler
Download or read book Victorian Perceptions of Renaissance Architecture written by Katherine Wheeler and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1880s The Builder, an influential British architectural journal, published an article characterizing Renaissance architecture as a corrupt bastardization of the classical architecture of Greece and Rome. By the turn of the century, however, the same journal praised the Renaissance architect Filippo Brunelleschi as the ?Christopher Columbus of modern architecture.? Victorian Perceptions of Renaissance Architecture, 1850-1914 examines these conflicting characterizations and reveals how the writing of architectural history was intimately tied to the rise of the professional architect and the formalization of architectural education in late nineteenth-century Britain. Drawing on a broad range of evidence, including literary texts, professional journals, university curricula, and census records, Victorian Perceptions reframes works by seminal authors such as John Ruskin, Walter Pater, John Addington Symonds, and Geoffrey Scott alongside those by architect-authors such as William J. Anderson and Reginald Blomfield within contemporary architectural debates. Relevant for architectural historians, as well as literary scholars and those in Victorian studies, Victorian Perceptions reassesses the history of Renaissance architecture within the formation of a modern, British architectural profession.

Book Synopsis Death and the Body in the Eighteenth-Century Novel by : Jolene Zigarovich
Download or read book Death and the Body in the Eighteenth-Century Novel written by Jolene Zigarovich and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2023-02-28 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Death and the Body in the Eighteenth-Century Novel demonstrates that archives continually speak to the period's rising funeral and mourning culture, as well as the increasing commodification of death and mourning typically associated with nineteenth-century practices. Drawing on a variety of historical discourses--such as wills, undertaking histories, medical treatises and textbooks, anatomical studies, philosophical treatises, and religious tracts and sermons--the book contributes to a fuller understanding of the history of death in the Enlightenment and its narrative transformation. Death and the Body in the Eighteenth-Century Novel not only offers new insights about the effect of a growing secularization and commodification of death on the culture and its productions, but also fills critical gaps in the history of death, using narrative as a distinct literary marker. As anatomists dissected, undertakers preserved, jewelers encased, and artists figured the corpse, so too the novelist portrayed bodily artifacts. Why are these morbid forms of materiality entombed in the novel? Jolene Zigarovich addresses this complex question by claiming that the body itself--its parts, or its preserved representation--functioned as secular memento, suggesting that preserved remains became symbols of individuality and subjectivity. To support the conception that in this period notions of self and knowing center upon theories of the tactile and material, the chapters are organized around sensory conceptions and bodily materials such as touch, preserved flesh, bowel, heart, wax, hair, and bone. Including numerous visual examples, the book also argues that the relic represents the slippage between corpse and treasure, sentimentality and materialism, and corporeal fetish and aesthetic accessory. Zigarovich's analysis compels us to reassess the eighteenth-century response to and representation of the dead and dead-like body, and its material purpose and use in fiction. In a broader framework, Death and the Body in the Eighteenth-Century Novel also narrates a history of the novel that speaks to the cultural formation of modern individualism.

Book Synopsis The Female Body in Medicine and Literature by : Andrew Mangham
Download or read book The Female Body in Medicine and Literature written by Andrew Mangham and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on a range of texts from the seventeenth century to the present, The Female Body in Medicine and Literature explores accounts of motherhood, fertility, and clinical procedures for what they have to tell us about the development of women's medicine. The essays here offer nuanced historical analyses of subjects that have received little critical attention, including the relationship between gynecology and psychology and the influence of popular art forms on so-called women's science prior to the twenty-first century. Taken together, these essays offer a wealth of insight into the medical treatment of women and will appeal to scholars in gender studies, literature, and the history of medicine.
