Download or read book Colors 1800 1900 2000 written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By recasting instances of ‘German’ cultural production around the turns of centuries – 1800, 1900, 2000 – the essays in this volume examine the role that color has played in perceiving and representing ethnic difference. In innovative essays, literary scholars, historians, anthropologists and art historians support an overarching thesis: that the ‘origins’ of a modern, ‘ethnic’ imagination, inscribe patterns of seeing, whereas more recent developments involve processes of de-colorization and metaphorization. By preserving the difference in disciplinary approaches, methods and writing styles, the volume presents a genuinely interdisciplinary approach to German Studies, and is therefore of interest to Germanists, as well as to all others engaged in the study and scholarship of German Culture. Contributors: Christine Achinger, Nana Badenberg, Helen Cafferty, Fatima El-Tayeb, Gudrun Hentges, Uli Linke, Andreas Michel, Thomas Miller, Daniel Purdy, Assenka Oksiloff, Wendy Sutherland, Birgit Tautz. Der Band untersucht die Rolle der Farbe in Prozessen der Wahrnehmung und Darstellung ethnischer Unterschiede in der deutschsprachigen Kultur an drei Jahrhundertwenden: 1800, 1900, 2000. Die interdisziplinären Essays von Literaturwissenschaftlern, Historikern, Anthropologen und Kunsthistorikern bieten Lesarten, die sich auf vielfältige Phänomene beziehen und die These unterstützen, daß das Ethnische zunächst überwiegend visuell vorgestellt und versprachlicht wurde, bevor es einer zunehmenden Metaphorisierung und “Entfärbung” unterlag. Die angebotenen Deutungsmuster repräsentieren keine kohärente Wahrheit; vielmehr sind sie als Symptome unterschiedlicher Wissensformationen, d.h. unterschiedlicher Disziplinen, Methoden und “Schreibverfahren“, zu sehen. Mit Beiträgen von Achinger, Badenberg, Cafferty, El-Tayeb, Hentges, Linke, Michel, Miller, Purdy, Oksiloff, Sutherland, Tautz.
Download or read book Light and Color in the Outdoors written by Marcel Minnaert and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1995-04-13 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All of science springs from the observation of nature. In this classic book, the late Professor Minnaert accompanies the reader on a tour of nature's light and color and reveals the myriad phenomena that may be observed outdoors with no more than a pair of eyes and an enquiring mind. From the intriguing shape of the dapples beneath a tree on a sunny day, via rainbows, mirages, and haloes, the colors of liquid, ice, and the sky, to the appearance of the sun, moon, planets, and stars - Minnaert describes and explains them all in a clear language accessible to laymen. This new English edition is supplemented by 80 plates, over half of them in color, taken by the acclaimed photographer Pekka Parviainen, illustrating many of the phenomena - ordinary and exotic - discussed in the book.

Download or read book The Color of Being El Color del Ser written by Susie Kalil and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2016-08-23 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in Bryan, Texas, and raised in Houston, Dorothy Hood won a scholarship to the Rhode Island School of Design in the early 1930s, then worked as a model in New York to earn money for classes at the Art Students League. On a whim, she drove a roadster to Mexico City with friends in 1941 and ended up staying for more than twenty years. Hood was front and center at the cultural, political, and social crossroads of Mexico and Latin America during a period of intense creative ferment. She developed close friendships with the exiled European intelligentsia and Latin American surrealists: artists, composers, poets, playwrights, and revolutionary writers. She married the Bolivian composer José María Velasco Maidana, and together they traveled all over the world. Once back in Houston, Hood produced epic paintings that evoked the psychic void of space: large-scale works evoking primordial seas, volcanic explosions, and the cosmos contained within the mind. The Color of Being / El Color del Ser establishes a vital connection among Texas, Latin America, New York, and Europe. It celebrates this important Modernist painter whose oeuvre is integral to the ongoing dialogue of abstraction by artists of the postwar period. Sponsored by the Art Museum of South Texas

Download or read book Writing through Music written by Jann Pasler and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2007-12-12 with total page 528 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on a passion for music, a remarkably diverse interdisciplinary toolbox, and a gift for accessible language that speaks equally to scholars and the general public, Jann Pasler invites us to read as she writes "through" music, unveiling the forces that affect our sonic encounters. In an extraordinary collection of historical and critical essays, some appearing for the first time in English, Pasler deconstructs the social, moral, and political preoccupations lurking behind aesthetic taste. Arguing that learning from musical experience is vital to our understanding of past, present, and future, Pasler's work trenchantly reasserts the role of music as a crucial contributor to important public debates about who we can be as individuals, communities, and nations. The author's wide-ranging and perceptive approaches to musical biography and history challenge us to rethink our assumptions about important cultural and philosophical issues including national identity and postmodern musical hybridity, material culture, the economics of power, and the relationship between classical and popular music. Her work uncovers the self-fashioning of modernists such as Vincent d'Indy, Augusta Holm?s, Jean Cocteau, and John Cage, and addresses categories such as race, gender, and class in the early 20th century in ways that resonate with experiences today. She also explores how music uses time and constructs narrative. Pasler's innovative and influential methodological approaches, such as her notion of "question-spaces," open up the complex cultural and political networks in which music participates. This provides us with the reasons and tools to engage with music in fresh and exciting ways. In these thoughtful essays, music--whether beautiful or cacophonous, reassuring or seemingly incomprehensible--comes alive as a bearer of ideas and practices that offers deep insights into how we negotiate the world. Jann Pasler's Writing through Music brilliantly demonstrates how music can be a critical lens to focus the contemporary critical, cultural, historical, and social issues of our time.
