Book Synopsis Inheriting Madness by : Ian Dowbiggin
Download or read book Inheriting Madness written by Ian Dowbiggin and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1991-05-14 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically, one of the recurring arguments in psychiatry has been that heredity is the root cause of mental illness. In Inheriting Madness, Ian Dowbiggin traces the rise in popularity of hereditarianism in France during the second half of the nineteenth century to illuminate the nature and evolution of psychiatry during this period. In Dowbiggin's mind, this fondness for hereditarianism stemmed from the need to reconcile two counteracting factors. On the one hand, psychiatrists were attempting to expand their power and privileges by excluding other groups from the treatment of the mentally ill. On the other hand, medicine's failure to effectively diagnose, cure, and understand the causes of madness made it extremely difficult for psychiatrists to justify such an expansion. These two factors, Dowbiggin argues, shaped the way psychiatrists thought about insanity, encouraging them to adopt hereditarian ideas, such as the degeneracy theory, to explain why psychiatry had failed to meet expectations. Hereditarian theories, in turn, provided evidence of the need for psychiatrists to assume more authority, resources, and cultural influence. Inheriting Madness is a forceful reminder that psychiatric notions are deeply rooted in the social, political, and cultural history of the profession itself. At a time when genetic interpretations of mental disease are again in vogue, Dowbiggin demonstrates that these views are far from unprecedented, and that in fact they share remarkable similarities with earlier theories. A familiarity with the history of the psychiatric profession compels the author to ask whether or not public faith in it is warranted.

Book Synopsis Shakespeare on Silent Film by : Robert Hamilton Ball
Download or read book Shakespeare on Silent Film written by Robert Hamilton Ball and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-07-18 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1899, when film projection was barely three years old, Herbert Beerbohm Tree was filmed as King John. In his highly entertaining history, Robert Hamilton Ball traces in detail the fate of Shakespeare on silent films from Tree’s first effort until the establishment of sound in 1929. The silent films brought Shakespeare to a wide public who had never had the chance to see his plays in the theatre. And Shakespeare gave the film makers an air of respectability that was badly needed by a medium with a reputation for frivolity. This work, first published in 1968, brings history to life with excerpts from scenarios, from reviews and from contemporary film journals, and with reproduction of stills and frames from the films themselves, including unusual shots of leading screen actors. This is a valuable source book for film experts, enhanced by full notes, bibliography and indexes; a fresh approach for Shakespeareans; and a vivid sketch of a world that has passed for all.

Book Synopsis Catalogue de Timbres de France 2019 by : Spink Maury
Download or read book Catalogue de Timbres de France 2019 written by Spink Maury and published by Spink Books. This book was released on 2018-09-01 with total page 1146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A catalogue made by collectors for collectors. This year the Spink Maury Catalogue, heir to the prestigious Maury, Ceres and Dallay catalogues, continues its work of research, compiled over generations of philately. It covers all French stamps from 1849 to the present day, offering hundreds of changes – with oddities, new varieties and discoveries presented, as always, in an exceptional way. Included in the new material is the continuation of the monographic studies, presenting a stamp per page with all varieties known until the First World War; a redesign of types Merson and Pasteur; and a specialised part devoted to Marianne de Beaujard, reviewed in depth. In addition the section on current usage stamps (TUC) is fully updated following feedback from our contributors and readers. France has one of the most beautiful philatelic legacies in the world, and we are pleased to be its modest ambassador to the numerous international readers who join us each year. “Layout and coverage are sumptuous … The trite phrase “mine of information” does not begin to do justice to this immense achievement. To any collector of France beyond the elementary stage, this would be a bargain at twice the official retail price … Highly recommended. ….an absolute must for collectors of French stamps…” Michael Round, Journal of the France & Colonies Philatelic Society
Book Synopsis Fecal Matters in Early Modern Literature and Art by : Jeff Persels
Download or read book Fecal Matters in Early Modern Literature and Art written by Jeff Persels and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Feces, urine, flatus, phlegm, vomitus - unlike ourselves, our most educated forebears did not disdain these functions, and, further, they employed scatological references in all manner of works. This collection of essays was provoked by what its editors considered to be a curious lacuna: the relative academic neglect of the copious and ubiquitous scatological rhetoric of Early Modern Europe, here broadly defined as the representation of the process and product of elimination of the body's waste products. The contributors to this volume examine the many forms and functions of scatology as literary and artistic trope, and reconsider this last taboo in the context of Early Modern European expression. They address unflinchingly both the objective reality of the scatological as part and parcel of material culture - inescapably a much larger part, a much heavier parcel then than now - and the subjective experience of that reality among contemporaries.
Book Synopsis Ornament and Figure in Graeco-Roman Art by : Nikolaus Dietrich
Download or read book Ornament and Figure in Graeco-Roman Art written by Nikolaus Dietrich and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 732 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How does ‘decoration’ work? What are the relations between ‘figurative’ and ‘ornamental’ modes? And how do such modern western distinctions relate to other critical traditions? While these questions have been much debated among art historians, our book offers an ancient visual cultural perspective. On the one hand, we argue, Greek and Roman materials have proved instrumental in shaping modern assumptions. On the other hand, those ideologies are fundamentally removed from ancient ideas: an ancient perspective can therefore shed light on larger aesthetic debates about what images are – or indeed what they should be. This anthology of specially commissioned essays explores a variety of case studies (both literary and art historical alike): it discusses materials from across the ancient Mediterranean, and from Geometric art all the way through to late antiquity; the book also tackles questions of ‘figure’ and ‘ornament’ in relation to different media – including painting, free-standing statues, relief sculpture, mosaics and architecture. A particular feature of the volume lies in bringing together different national academic traditions, building a bridge between formalist approaches and broader cultural historical perspectives.

Book excerpt: L'histoire r~cente de l'audiovisuel en France ne peut ~tre rapport~e sans prendre en compte le changement de majorit~ poli tique de 1981. Sans doute les innovations techniques qui inter pellent aujourd'hui les diff~rents acteurs du champ audiovisuel ~taient-elles d~ja pr~sentes ou en germe d~s la fin de la d~cennie pr~c~dente. Mais la volont~ de l'Etat de faire de la communication audiovisuelle une des cl~s de voQte d'une nouvelle politique culturelle et ~conomique n'a cess~ d'entretenir une tension toute particuli~re dans un paysage qui n'avait que fort peu ~volu~ de 1974 a 1982, si l'on excepte la dissolution de l'ORTF et la cr~ation simultan~e de sept soci~t~s, chacune sp~cialis~e dans une des fonctions de la radio-diffusion (produc tion, programmation, diffusion-- l. Les exp~riences de t~l~ distribution lanc~es en 1975 n'avaient pas ~t~ relay~s par une politique plus ambitieuse. Seul le projet de satellite de t~l~ vision directe TDF 1 t~moignait d'une vision plus prospective, plus aventureuse du d~veloppement de l'audiovisuel.
