Book Synopsis Australian Rock Art by : Robert Layton
Download or read book Australian Rock Art written by Robert Layton and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-14 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The origins of rock art in Australia are probably as old as that of the hunter-gatherers of Western Europe, well-known for the prehistoric caves of Altamira and Lascaux. That the practice of painting and engraving on rocks continues in parts of northern and central Australia emphasises the importance of this art as a source of visual information for Australia's indigenous communities, Rock art can be 'read' to determine cultural processes and provides a durable record of thousands of years of cultural change. This book is an extensive survey of Australian rock art, presenting detailed case studies revealing the significance of both recent and ancient art for Australia's living indigenous communities. Archaeological data provides evidence of the ways in which rock art traditions have changed over 15,000 or more years in response to changes in the environment, the development of new forms of social organisation and the impact of European colonial settlement.
Book Synopsis Rethinking Australia’s Art History by : Susan Lowish
Download or read book Rethinking Australia’s Art History written by Susan Lowish and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-30 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to redefine Australia’s earliest art history by chronicling for the first time the birth of the category "Aboriginal art," tracing the term’s use through published literature in the late eighteenth, nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Susan Lowish reveals how the idea of "Aboriginal art" developed in the European imagination, manifested in early literature, and became a distinct classification with its own criteria and form. Part of the larger story of Aboriginal/European engagement, this book provides a new vision for an Australian art history reconciled with its colonial origins and in recognition of what came before the contemporary phenomena of Aboriginal art.

Book Synopsis Epistimology of Rock Art Science Courting Sophistication by : International Federation of Rock Art Organisations
Download or read book Epistimology of Rock Art Science Courting Sophistication written by International Federation of Rock Art Organisations and published by . This book was released on 2010-06-30 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume introduces a selection of the most innovative papers presented at two major conferences, the 1995 International Rock Art Congress in Turin, Italy, and the Third Congress of the Australian Rock Art Research Association in 2000, held in Alice Springs, Australia. Both events were attended by several hundred of the world's rock art researchers. The book offers a fairly representative profile of where the discipline stands at the beginning of the new millennium, and it attempts to predict the direction that scientific rock art research is likely to take in the immediate future. This collection of outstanding essays comprises eighteen contributions from scholars around the world, representing all continents except Africa. Most address epistemological, metaphysical and major theoretical aspects of the discipline. Some present innovative and new ways of thinking about the data presented by empirical research of recent years, while a few authors describe specific research projects exemplifying new directions emerging in their discipline. Having been neglected for much of the 20th century, the field of rock art research has experienced an unprecedented rapid development in the late part of that century. This has led to a sophistication of theoretical approaches and a notable broadening of the research base, well illustrated by this book. Besides archaeologists, the contributing authors include semioticians and epistemologists. The volume is of value to anyone interested in the development of rock art studies, from the ingenious approaches of the past to today's resourcefulness in working with such an intractable subject. Rock art, and palaeoart generally, provides the study material of a discipline whose ultimate agenda it is to determine the origins of human constructs of reality. This volume shows how this ferociously complex subject can be rendered somewhat more accessible without resorting.

Book Synopsis Arguments for Protected Areas by : Sue Stolton
Download or read book Arguments for Protected Areas written by Sue Stolton and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-08-12 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most protected areas (e.g.national parks and nature reserves) have been created to protect wildlife and land- and seascape values. They currently cover over 13% of the world's land surface, around 12% of marine coastal areas and 4% of the marine shelf. Retaining and expanding these areas in the future will depend on showing their wider benefits for society. This book provides a concise and persuasive overview of the values of protected areas. Contributing authors from over fifty countries examine a wide range of values that are maintained in protected areas, including food, water and materials; health; tourism; cultural and spiritual values; and buffering capacity against climate change and natural disasters. The book also considers the role of protected areas in poverty reduction strategies, their relationship with traditional and indigenous people and in fostering conflict resolution through peace parks initiatives. The chapters draw on a series of authoritative reports published by WWF over recent years under the 'Arguments for Protection' banner, in association with various partners, and on additional research carried out especially for the volume. It analyses the opportunities and limitations of protected areas for supplying the various values along with practical advice for planners and managers about maximising benefits. It provides an important contribution to the debate about the role of protected areas in conservation and other aspects of natural resource management and human livelihoods. Published with WWF
Book Synopsis Expanding Professionalism in Music and Higher Music Education by : Heidi Westerlund
Download or read book Expanding Professionalism in Music and Higher Music Education written by Heidi Westerlund and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-06-07 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the need to rethink the concept and enactment of professionalism in music, and how such concepts underpin professional higher music education. There is an urgent imperative to enable the potential of professional musicians in our contemporary societies to be more fully realised, recognising both intense challenges that are currently threatening some traditional music practices, and significant scope for new practices to be imagined in response to deep veins of societal need. Professionalism encompasses the conduct, aims, values, responsibilities and ongoing development of a practising professional in the field. Professional higher music education engages both with providing future professionals with relevant education in particular craft skills, and with nurturing their visions for their work as artists in future societies. The major focus of the book is on performance traditions that have dominated professional higher education, notably western classical music.

Book Synopsis Rock Art Glossary by : Robert G. Bednarik
Download or read book Rock Art Glossary written by Robert G. Bednarik and published by Brepols Publishers. This book was released on 2003 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first dictionary compiled specifically for rock art research. It follows the publication of an English rock art glossary in the journal Rock Art Research in November 2000. To be adopted by the International Federation of Rock Art Organisations (IFRAO), it has been translated by some of the world's foremost scholars in the field into French, German, Italian, Spanish and Russian. The purpose of this dictionary is to create a single terminological standard as well as a cross-lingual uniformity of usage. It focuses particularly on scientific aspects, technical applications and epistemological rigour. It does not set out to create a terminological straitjacket for the discipline, but a common standard of reference, particularly in areas that have in the past been susceptible to greatly differing interpretations.
