Download or read book The Dime Novel in Children s Literature written by Vicki Anderson and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2014-10-16 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With their rakish characters, sensationalist plots, improbable adventures and objectionable language (like swell and golly), dime novels in their heyday were widely considered a threat to the morals of impressionable youth. Roundly criticized by church leaders and educators of the time, these short, quick-moving, pocket-sized publications were also, inevitably, wildly popular with readers of all ages. This work looks at the evolution of the dime novel and at the authors, publishers, illustrators, and subject matter of the genre. Also discussed are related types of children's literature, such as story papers, chapbooks, broadsides, serial books, pulp magazines, comic books and today's paperback books. The author shows how these works reveal much about early American life and thought and how they reflect cultural nationalism through their ideological teachings in personal morality and ethics, humanitarian reform and political thought. Overall, this book is a thoughtful consideration of the dime novel's contribution to the genre of children's literature. Eight appendices provide a wealth of information, offering an annotated bibliography of dime novels and listing series books, story paper periodicals, characters, authors and their pseudonyms, and more. A reference section, index and illustrations are all included.

Download or read book West West West written by American Museum of Western Art--The Anschutz Collection and published by Bison Books. This book was released on 1991 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning in 1974, the Anschultz Collection, an assemblage of over five hundred paintings of the American West, exhibited throughout the United States and in eight foreign countries. It was returned to Denver in February 1990 after an acclaimed tour of the Soviet Union. West, West, West is the revised English-language version of the award-winning catalog that accompanied the collection's USSR tour. Curator Elizabeth Cunningham has adapted the historical essay, originally written for a Russian audience, to provide an assessment of the events, locales, issues, and personalities important to the American West. She touches on key issues such as how American literature shaped ideas about the West, what role artists played in government explorations of the area, and how their paintings documented successive and overlapping frontiers. The catalog features eighty-four color plates of the collection's most important paintings, which are juxtaposed with sixty-eight artist biographies. New major acquisitions are presented in this edition that have not been reproduced elsewhere, such as William Jacob Hay's The Gathering of the Herds, Alfred Jacob Miller's Breaking Up Camp at Sunrise, and Albert Bierstadt's Wind River, Wyoming. The chronological arrangement of the text and color reproductions parallels the successive generations of artists who provided visual documentation of the West from the 1820s to the 1970s. The catalog includes paintings of American fold hero Daniel Boone and of exotic Spanish vaqueros by William Tylee Ranney and Charles Christian Nahl, of dashing cowboys and free-roaming Blackfeet Indians by Frederic Remington and Charles Russell, and of romantic nineteenth-century and modernist twentieth-century landscapes by Thomas Moran and Georgia O'Keeffe. Other highlights of this edition include a full-color topographical map with a chronology listing key dates in the history of the American West and a preface by the collector.
