Book excerpt: Excerpt from The World in the Stereoscope: A Series of Sketches, Original and Selected This book, with the illustrative apparatus accompanying it, aims to secure a new educational advantage by introducing into the school-room the systematic use of one of our most important and popular inventions. It is not intended to displace other school studies, but to increase their interest and usefulness. The book contains a large number of geographical descriptions which increase the interest in that study, especially as they are accompanied with picturesque and accurate views of the places described. The volume includes sketches of some of the most famous scenes of history, explaining photographs which, of themselves, would be attractive; thus it can readily be used to create more vivid ideas of historical places and events; yet it is not a mere dry chronicle of names and dates. Though it is not a mere school reader, perhaps its most profitable use will be found in the reading classes. Competent teachers will appreciate the difficulty of teaching pupils to read naturally and correctly those selections which are read merely for the sake of reading. It is a great gain to have the scholar interested in what he reads. The heavy, lifeless pronunciation of each word separately, without natural inflection, emphasis or connection, can be met best by arousing a new interest in the passage, thus making it something more than a mere collection of sentences to be pronounced correctly. This interest can not be more easily and fully awakened than by putting before the eye the very scenes, the actual places described in the reading lesson. Successful teachers attempt to do this by verbal descriptions, by question and answer and remark. But it can be done much better by letting the scholar examine the actual appearance of every place described in his lesson. This is what these selections, with their accompanying stereoscopic views, afford the teacher an opportunity of doing.

Book Synopsis A Village Lost and Found by : Elena Vidal Brian May
Download or read book A Village Lost and Found written by Elena Vidal Brian May and published by . This book was released on 2009-10-22 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Annotated Tour of the 1850s series of Stereo Photographs "Scenes in our Village" by T.R. WilliamsThis book is the perfect antidote to the stress of life in the 21st Century.It portrays the idyll of life in an 1850s village, "far from the sound of the train's whistle".The identity of the village was lost to the world for 150 years, and only by a miracle does this magical set of stereoscopic views survive, brought together for the very first time by Brian May and his co-author, photohistorian Elena Vidal. Their research is amazingly in-depth, but the book is utterly readable, and the pictures leap into glorious 3-D, viewed in the new focussing stereoscope which May has designed and produced, to bring the stereos to life, and then fold neatly into the slip-case of the book.The book gives an extraordinary insight into everyday village life at the time - with a woman at her spinning wheel, the blacksmith outside his smithy, three men at the grind stone sharpening a tool, the villagers in the fields, bringing in the harvest as well as often taking time to enjoy a good gossip. In every case the original verse which accompanied the view is reproduced. In addition, May and Vidal have researched and annotated all the views, revealing another layer of meaning, by exploring the history of these real characters, this idyllic village and its links with the present day. The result is a powerfully atmospheric and touching set of photographs." A Village Lost and Found brings master pioneering stereographer T. R. Williams's passionate life-work Scenes in Our Village to a new audience - in glorious 3-D, as never before.For an Electronic Press Kit for A Village Lost and Found click here

Download or read book Animal Kingdom written by Jim Naughten and published by Prestel Publishing. This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout his life photographer Jim Naughten has been fascinated with the natural world. As a child, he collected fossils he found near his home in Dover. Now a renowned photographer, Naughten has started to experiment with stereography and has turned to his boyhood interest, gaining access to the archives of some of the world's most prestigious natural history museums. This gorgeously produced book contains fifty images of marine life, reptiles, mammals, birds and primates photographed expressly for viewing through a stereoscope, which is included with the book. Stereoscopy was invented in 1839 to study and explain binocular vision. Having two eyes allows humans to determine distance and depth and stereoscopy shows a left- and right-eye view from a slightly different angle, as we see things in day-to-day life. Looking through the stereo viewer, readers will see the specimens as three-dimensional objects. As the images jump off the page, their incredible details become apparent-delicate bat wings, the spiraling skeleton of a python, the almost mythic form of a leafy sea dragon.A foreword by Martin Barnes of the Victoria and Albert Museum, London offers an assessment of the work while essays on the specimens themselves and the history of stereoscopy provide rich background to this photographic technology, and to Naughten's achievement in bringing to life a world that seamlessly melds the past and present.

Book Synopsis Grasping Shadows by : William Chapman Sharpe
Download or read book Grasping Shadows written by William Chapman Sharpe and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-04 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What's in a shadow? Menace, seduction, or salvation? Immaterial but profound, shadows lurk everywhere in literature and the visual arts, signifying everything from the treachery of appearances to the unfathomable power of God. From Plato to Picasso, from Rembrandt to Welles and Warhol, from Lord of the Rings to the latest video game, shadows act as central players in the drama of Western culture. Yet because they work silently, artistic shadows often slip unnoticed past audiences and critics. Conceived as an accessible introduction to this elusive phenomenon, Grasping Shadows is the first book that offers a general theory of how all shadows function in texts and visual media. Arguing that shadow images take shape within a common cultural field where visual and verbal meanings overlap, William Sharpe ranges widely among classic and modern works, revealing the key motifs that link apparently disparate works such as those by Fra Angelico and James Joyce, Clementina Hawarden and Kara Walker, Charles Dickens and Kumi Yamashita. Showing how real-world shadows have shaped the meanings of shadow imagery, Grasping Shadows guides the reader through the techniques used by writers and artists to represent shadows from the Renaissance onward. The last chapter traces how shadows impact the art of the modern city, from Renoir and Zola to film noir and projection systems that capture the shadows of passers-by on streets around the globe. Extending his analysis to contemporary street art, popular songs, billboards, and shadow-theatre, Sharpe demonstrates a practical way to grasp the "dark side" that looms all around us.

This book was released on 2017-12-23 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The United States of America Through the Stereoscope: One Hundred Outlooks From Successive Positions in Different Parts of the World's Greatest Republic The difference between a mere picture and a stereo graph is probably clear to you now. It seems to some people too wonderful for belief that stereographs should give them the impression of every thing in the full size of the actual, existing world, yet this also is true. Look out through a window ten feet away at a man in the street beyond; how much space on the window-glass is actually occupied by his distant figure? The facts will surprise you. A visit ing card held in your own hand at arm's length would more than cover him from sight. That same small card might cover a tall building, or even hide a dis tant mountain, for a small thing near the eyes fills the same space as a much larger thing farther away. This fact of Optics has also to do with the service ren dered by stereographs, for the stereoscopic prints, when viewed through a stereoscope, become like so many windows through which you see the real things, full size, off at the distance where they actually were in fact, when confronted by the sensitized plates of the camera.

This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Stereoscope and Stereoscopic Photography Of the stereoscope and stereoscopic photo graphy has been published in this country since about 1860, when Sir David Brewster gave to the world his now historic work. The active revival of stereoscopy brings with it the need of a modern treatise on the subject, more adapted to the times than the book of thirty years ago; for if in optical knowledge but few strides have been made, in matters photographic our progress has been enormous. The present work is almost a'literal translation from Le Stéréoscope et la Photo graphie Stéréoscopique of M. Drouin, only a few alterations and interpolations having been made in the necessary anglification. The metric system was adopted by the author, and it has been deemed advisable in most instances not to convert into.
