Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bob Taylor's Magazine, Vol. 3: April-September, 1906 But 10! When Sir Croesus has gotten it all and sent his victims about their business, he hugs himself and turns to revel in its luxurious pleasures to find the joy of its spending bittered to gall by the memory of the dirty means of its getting, and he laments sorrowfully that he did not give his fellow man a square deal. For a time, and while he is gorging his greed, perhaps the jingling of the guinea helps the hurt that honor feels; but there comes a time when conscience demands a reckoning and he realizes how utterly worse than poor he is since that for which he sold his soul has only served to poison it. The man who pitches his life to the tone of his sordid lusts and believes that money is to be sought for first of all virtue after wealth will find the love of pelf increases with the pelf, and that he has postponed the better purpose to the viler one that makes virtue unattainable after the soul has corroded itself with avarice. He who swaps his virtue off for wealth may find too late he can never rue. There is but one right road to wealth and he who travels it must wade his own sweat. Economy: is the poor man's mint. He who essays another route than this or strays into luring paths where richer fruits tempt him into devious ways, soon finds his feet on slippery places where he must perforce make choice of questionable means to prop and stay him up, when honor begins to lag for a rendezvous with lust, and he pays the price of success with his own virtue.

Book Robert Taylor

    Book Details:
  • Author : Gillian Kelly
  • Publisher : Univ. Press of Mississippi
  • Release : 2019-06-27
  • ISBN : 149682315X
  • Pages : 219 pages

Download or read book Robert Taylor written by Gillian Kelly and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2019-06-27 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because of his lengthy screen resume that includes almost eighty appearances in such movies as Camille and Waterloo Bridge, as well as a marriage and divorce to actress Barbara Stanwyck, Robert Taylor was a central figure of Hollywood’s classical era. Despite this, he can be regarded as a “lost” star, an interesting contradiction given the continued success he enjoyed during his lifetime. In Robert Taylor: Male Beauty, Masculinity, and Stardom in Hollywood, author Gillian Kelly investigates the initial construction and subsequent developments of Taylor's star persona across his thirty-five-year career. By examining concepts of male beauty, men as object of the erotic gaze, white American masculinity, and the unusual longevity of a career initially based on looks, Kelly highlights how gender, masculinity, and male stars and the ageing process affected Taylor's career. Placing Taylor within the histories of both Hollywood’s classical era and mid-twentieth-century America, this study positions him firmly within the wider industrial, cultural, and socioeconomic contexts in which he worked. Kelly examines Taylor’s film and television work as well as ephemeral material, such as fan magazines, to assess how his on- and off-screen personas were created and developed over time. Taking a mostly chronological approach, Kelly places Taylor’s persona within specific historical moments in order to show the complex paradox of his image remaining consistently recognizable while also shifting seamlessly within the Hollywood industry. Furthermore, she explores Taylor’s importance to Hollywood cinema by demonstrating how a star persona like his can “fit” so well, and for so long, that it almost becomes invisible and, eventually, almost forgotten.

Book Robert R  Taylor and Tuskegee

Download or read book Robert R Taylor and Tuskegee written by Ellen Weiss and published by NewSouth Books. This book was released on 2012-01-01 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Ellen Weiss breaks important new ground in her remarkable monograph on Robert R. Taylor. This volume is by far the most detailed account we have of an African American architect. Weiss vividly conveys the immense challenges faced by black architects and professionals of every kind, especially during the rise of Jim Crow. Along the way we get myriad insights on architectural education, architect-client relationships, and the development of a major institution of higher learning."--- Richard Longstreth, George Washington University "Architectural historian Ellen Weiss's book provides a wealth of little-known factual information about Taylor and a scholarly historical analysis of his many contributions in architectural education and professional practice. A must-read for anyone with an interest in architecture and a certain reference for every architecture student."--- Richard Dozier, Dean, Robert R. Taylor School of Architecture & Construction Science, Tuskegee University "Robert R. Taylor's place in history as the first academically-trained African American architect has been well known, but an authoritative assessment of his contribution to American architectural and planning practice has remained elusive until now. Weiss deftly interweaves the story of the Tuskegee campus with an examination of Taylor's pedagogy and the plight of black architects in the early twentieth century."--- Gary Van Zante, Curator of Architecture and Design, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
