Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tapestries--the art form of kings--were a principal tool used by powerful Renaissance rulers to convey their wealth and might. From 1460 to 1560, courts and churches lavished vast sums on costly weavings in silk and gold thread from designs by leading artists. In this lavishly illustrated book, the first major survey of tapestry production of this period, contributors analyze some of these & beautiful tapestries, examine the stylistic and technical development of tapestry production in the Low Countries, France, and Italy during the Renaissance, and discuss the contribution that the medium made to art, liturgy, and propaganda of the day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sovjetregisseur en filmtheoreticus Sergei M. Eisenstein werkte in 1946 en 1947 een jaar voor zijn dood aan een algemene geschiedenis van de cinema. De manier waarop hij de geschiedschrijving van van de cinema benadert, is tegelijk fascinerend in haar ambitie en uiterst modern in haar methode. Eisenstein presenteert hier een virtuele wereldkaart van alle aan de bioscoop gerelateerde media, en ontwikkelt op hetzelfde moment een methode voor het schrijven van een geschiedenis die net als de cinema is gebaseerd op montage. De teksten van Eisenstein worden begeleid door een reeks kritische essays, geschreven door enkele van 's werelds meest gekwalificeerde Eisensteinkenners.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cultural Diversity in Family Life Education helps students improve their understanding of the specific cultural, language, and social and economic nuances of particular people and families. Equipped with this knowledge, readers develop the competencies required to be successful within the family science discipline. Chapter 1 covers the topic of race and ethnicity as it relates to individuals. Structural diversity, hegemony, and microaggressions toward people of color are addressed. In Chapter 2, students learn the role class plays in the lives of families, the difference between social class and social status, and how privilege, microassaults, and oppression can manifest according to class. Chapter 3 presents historical and contemporary perspectives on gender and sexual orientation, as well as intersectionality theory. In Chapters 4 and 5, the text explains how religion and ageism factor into the family, alongside discussions of intersectional issues related to these topics. The closing chapter speaks to fathers, fathering, and fatherhood within different societies and intersectional contexts. Timely, valuable, and critical, Cultural Diversity in Family Life Education is an ideal textbook for courses in family science.

Download or read book Scotland and the Caribbean, c.1740-1833 written by Michael Morris and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book participates in the modern recovery of the memory of the long-forgotten relationship between Scotland and the Caribbean. Drawing on theoretical paradigms of world literature and transnationalism, it argues that Caribbean slavery profoundly shaped Scotland’s economic, social and cultural development, and draws out the implications for current debates on Scotland’s national narratives of identity. Eighteenth- to nineteenth-century Scottish writers are re-examined in this new light. Morris explores the ways that discourses of "improvement" in both Scotland and the Caribbean are mediated by the modes of pastoral and georgic which struggle to explain and contain the labour conditions of agricultural labourers, both free and enslaved. The ambivalent relationship of Scottish writers, including Robert Burns, to questions around abolition allows fresh perspectives on the era. Furthermore, Morris considers the origins of a hybrid Scottish-Creole identity through two nineteenth-century figures - Robert Wedderburn and Mary Seacole. The final chapter moves forward to consider the implications for post-devolution (post-referendum) Scotland. Underpinning this investigation is the conviction that collective memory is a key feature which shapes behaviour and beliefs in the present; the recovery of the memory of slavery is performed here in the interests of social justice in the present.
