Download or read book An Iris Lover's Catalog written by F. X. Schreiner and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Iris Lover's Catalog: With Iris Map for 1930 Some will wonder at the seeming odd application of this word. However, on a little reflection it will be found a very fit designation as applied to the work at hand. This title was used in the first edition of this catalog in 1928. A map is a bird's eye view of large and complex areas and serves as a means of orientation as to your whereabouts. This is exactly what the four color group tables or maps of Iris are for us. First you have the complete View, the extent of the particular color field. The out standing things are noted at a glance, the others in their proper relation. Questions of height, season, hardiness can be noted instantly. Variations as bicolors, blended varieties are noted. In short an effective clear shorthand description. Supplementing this are a number of descriptive notes bringing out characteristics that cannot be presented in table form. They restore the human touch. Between the two treat ments a very complete picture is formed. This should make Iris selection for those who wish to put in a little study as easy and interesting as it can humanly be made. If your interest in Iris is new and you have no large collection by all means consider the various collections offered on our Collection Pages.

Download or read book Historical Dictionary of Tokyo written by Roman Cybriwsky and published by Scarecrow Press. This book was released on 2011-02-18 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tokyo is Japan's largest city and its capital. It is also one of the largest cities in the world and a major center of global economic influence. The origins of human settlement in what is today Tokyo are lost in prehistory. The city started out quite modestly as a small castle town of Edo in 1457, then the center of the Tokugawa shogunate from 1603-1868, the rapidly modernizing and Westernizing capital of the nation during the Meiji Period (1868-1912), and the capital of a prosperous nation and growing empire thereafter. Tokyo was utterly devastated during World War II, but this was not the first time Tokyo had to start seemingly from new. Due to many fires and earthquakes, the city has constantly rebuilt itself and today it outdoes all its previous emanations by far. The second edition of the Historical Dictionary of Tokyo is a much-needed reference source on the city. This is done through a chronology, an introductory essay, an extensive bibliography, and over 600 cross-referenced dictionary entries on people, places, events, and other terminology about the city of Tokyo. This book is a must for anyone interested in Japan and Tokyo.

Download or read book The Book of the Iris (Classic Reprint) written by R. Irwin Lynch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-25 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Book of the Iris Tms work has been written with two principal aims in view. I have endeavoured, in the first place, to give all the useful information upon culture that is available, and, secondly, to rovide an easy and efficient means for the verification ofp names and for the naming of plants. In the verification of names that happen to be correct there should be no difficulty, but with regard to the naming of plants, it must be remembered that Irises are exceedingly variable. They hybridise both in the garden and in a wild state, and intermediates, or forms not agreeing precisely with any description, are at least liable to be met with. I still hope, however, that naming will be effected in most cases without difficulty. By dividing into small, easily understood groups, and by the construction of keys, I have hoped to provide a Special facility.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Iris Lover's Catalog: With Iris Map for 1928 The keynote of this catalog is to present the entire situation in a true perspective, - to show its extent and the relation of its mem bers to each other. A business method was clearly necessary; hence the offering as developed in this catalog. The alternate seems to be a series of personal selections offered to you as the best of the field with the implication that the omissions are not worth while. Unfortunately, your taste will not agree with this in many instances. Authorities of equal eminence will present conflicting recommendations, well meaning but always incomplete.

Book excerpt: An award-winning cultural history of how we experience the world through art, film and architecture Atlas of Emotion is a highly original endeavor to map the cultural terrain of spatio-visual arts. In an evocative blend of words and pictures, Giuliana Bruno emphasizes the connections between “sight” and “site” and “motion” and “emotion.” In so doing, she touches on the art of Gerhard Richter and Louise Bourgeois, the filmmaking of Peter Greenaway and Michelangelo Antonioni, media archaeology and the origins of the museum, and her own journeys to her native Naples. Visually luscious and daring in conception, Bruno’s book opens new vistas and understandings at every turn.

Download or read book A History of America in 100 Maps written by Susan Schulten and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2018-09-21 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout its history, America has been defined through maps. Whether made for military strategy or urban reform, to encourage settlement or to investigate disease, maps invest information with meaning by translating it into visual form. They capture what people knew, what they thought they knew, what they hoped for, and what they feared. As such they offer unrivaled windows onto the past. In this book Susan Schulten uses maps to explore five centuries of American history, from the voyages of European discovery to the digital age. With stunning visual clarity, A History of America in 100 Maps showcases the power of cartography to illuminate and complicate our understanding of the past. Gathered primarily from the British Library’s incomparable archives and compiled into nine chronological chapters, these one hundred full-color maps range from the iconic to the unfamiliar. Each is discussed in terms of its specific features as well as its larger historical significance in a way that conveys a fresh perspective on the past. Some of these maps were made by established cartographers, while others were made by unknown individuals such as Cherokee tribal leaders, soldiers on the front, and the first generation of girls to be formally educated. Some were tools of statecraft and diplomacy, and others were instruments of social reform or even advertising and entertainment. But when considered together, they demonstrate the many ways that maps both reflect and influence historical change. Audacious in scope and charming in execution, this collection of one hundred full-color maps offers an imaginative and visually engaging tour of American history that will show readers a new way of navigating their own worlds.
