Download or read book The Culture of the Copy written by Hillel Schwartz and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2014-11-02 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A novel attempt to make sense of our preoccupation with copies of all kinds—from counterfeits to instant replay, from parrots to photocopies. The Culture of the Copy is a novel attempt to make sense of the Western fascination with replicas, duplicates, and twins. In a work that is breathtaking in its synthetic and critical achievements, Hillel Schwartz charts the repercussions of our entanglement with copies of all kinds, whose presence alternately sustains and overwhelms us. This updated edition takes notice of recent shifts in thought with regard to such issues as biological cloning, conjoined twins, copyright, digital reproduction, and multiple personality disorder. At once abbreviated and refined, it will be of interest to anyone concerned with problems of authenticity, identity, and originality. Through intriguing, and at times humorous, historical analysis and case studies in contemporary culture, Schwartz investigates a stunning array of simulacra: counterfeits, decoys, mannequins, and portraits; ditto marks, genetic cloning, war games, and camouflage; instant replays, digital imaging, parrots, and photocopies; wax museums, apes, and art forgeries—not to mention the very notion of the Real McCoy. Working through a range of theories on biological, mechanical, and electronic reproduction, Schwartz questions the modern esteem for authenticity and uniqueness. The Culture of the Copy shows how the ethical dilemmas central to so many fields of endeavor have become inseparable from our pursuit of copies—of the natural world, of our own creations, indeed of our very selves. The book is an innovative blend of microsociology, cultural history, and philosophical reflection, of interest to anyone concerned with problems of authenticity, identity, and originality. Praise for the first edition “[T]he author... brings his considerable synthetic powers to bear on our uneasy preoccupation with doubles, likenesses, facsimiles, replicas and re-enactments. I doubt that these cultural phenomena have ever been more comprehensively or more creatively chronicled.... [A] book that gets you to see the world anew, again.” —The New York Times “A sprightly and disconcerting piece of cultural history” —Terence Hawkes, London Review of Books “In The Culture of the Copy, [Schwartz] has written the perfect book: original and repetitive at once.” —Todd Gitlin, Los Angeles Times Book Review

This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Talmadge, Tallmadge and Talmage Genealogy, Being the Descendants of Thomas, Talmadge of Lynn, Massachusetts: With an Appendix Including Other Families There are a few remarks, some of which will be of interest to almost every reader, that the editor desires to make regard ing the scope and make-up of this genealogy. The genealogy proper consists of a record of the descendants of Thomas Tal madge or Talmage, who is said to have come to America in the fleet with Governor Winthrop and three of whose sons - Wil liam, Thomas and Robert executed legal papers in Boston in 1640. In the appendix are the genealogies of a number of families living in the United States, some of which are probably descendants of the same ancestor common to all mentioned in the main book; the others, who trace their ancestries to neigh boring parts of England may be descended from a collateral relative of our common ancestor above referred to. In the first part of the book is given the general result of numerous researches by interested members of the family con cerning the family in England. It is shown that families bear ing our name holding positions of influence have resided in Suffolk County from the earliest Saxon times to the present day; that as early as 1500 A. The name appears in Hamp shire records and that these people are supposed to be a branch of the Suffolk family; and that prosperous members of the Hampshire family lived almost from their first appearance in the County at Newton Stacey, where John Talmadge, the brother of our ancestor Thomas, lived, previous to his death in 1640. Thus our early English ancestry is clearly indicated though no attempt is made to give the unbroken line of descent even back through the Hampshire to the Suffolk family as there are links where the evidence is doubtful.
