Book excerpt: Light Touches: Cultural Practices of Illumination, 1800-1900 explores how urban lives in the nineteenth century were increasingly touched by innovations in the technologies and aesthetics of illumination. Dramatic changes in qualities of light – and darkness – became acutely palpable to the human sensorium; using, seeing, feeling, and being in light were now matters of intense personal and cultural concern. Light gave meaningful vitality to the period’s material culture, and light itself became something to be perceptually consumed. Over the course of six chapters Alice Barnaby traces how light was used in amateur artistic pastimes, interior design and clothing fashions, spectacular public amusements, volatile street demonstrations, and art gallery designs. From these previously unexplored examples a more complex history of light in the period emerges. Society’s fascination with illumination, its desire to work with it and make meaning from it gave rise to a distinctly new set of cultural practices. Through these practices unexpected discoveries about the modern world were revealed. Light proved to be instrumental in everyday acts of experimentation and imaginative enquiry. Barnaby offers an intervention into the dominant scholarly narrative of the nineteenth century which traditionally reads modernity as synonymous with the formation of a spectacular, disembodied visuality. Light Touches, in contrast, returns vision to the body and foregrounds the actively felt - as well as seen - sensation of light. In coming to understand these cultural practices of illumination, the book reconsiders many assumptions about nineteenth-century modernity.

Download or read book Aurora Morgen R te im auffgang 1612 and Fundamental Report Gr ndlicher Bericht Mysterium Pansophicum 1620 written by Andrew Weeks and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2013-11-29 with total page 853 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacob Boehme’s Aurora (Morgen Röte im auffgang, 1612) exercised a vast open or underground influence on popular and mystical religion, poetry, and philosophy from Germany to England to Russia. This beautiful and highly original work containing elements of alchemical, esoteric, and anticlerical thought is a portal to the cultural, scientific, and theological currents on the eve of the Thirty Years' War. Its author heralded the new heliocentrism, opposed intolerance and religious conflict, and entertained an ecstatic vision of order reconciled with freedom. This first modern English translation places the translated text opposite an edition of the German manuscript from the author’s own hand. Also included is the brief, influential Fundamental Report (Gründlicher Bericht, 1620) in a critical edition and translation. An extensive commentary that cites documents of the time offers access to the sources of Boehme’s themes and concepts.

Download or read book Photography Curation Criticism written by Liz Wells and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-31 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique collection brings together the work of photography writer, curator, and lecturer, Liz Wells, reflecting on key themes of landscape, place, nationhood, and environmental concerns. A newly written introductory chapter contextualizes the collection. This is followed by an ‘in conversation’ with Martha Langford, Concordia University, Montreal, that brings together two leading figures in the field to respond to Wells’ thought and the themes that emerge in her writings. The essays included in this anthology draw on work from a variety of sources including artists’ photobooks, exhibition catalogues, magazines, academic books, and journals. Seventeen previously published articles, organized thematically in relation to Curation and Residency, Phenomena, Place, and Critical Reflections, demonstrate Wells’ critical and curatorial approach to research through photographic practices, reflecting a core view of art (at its best) operating to convey the implications of what is being explored and to evoke responses that are simultaneously sensory and intellectual. This collection will be essential reading for students and scholars of photography, visual culture, and art history, especially those examining landscape and environmental photography.

Download or read book Visualization for Weight Loss written by Jon Gabriel and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2015-01-06 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Visualization for Weight Loss, Jon Gabriel expands on the most talked about tool in his best-selling book, The Gabriel Method: visualization. This powerful technique helped Jon drop 220 pounds without dieting or deprivation because it didn’t depend on calorie counting or extreme exercise—rather it changed his biochemistry and neural pathways. In turn, this helped lower stress and its associated inflammatory chemicals in his body, allowing him to lose weight easily and naturally. Examining the importance of visualizing for weight loss, Jon takes readers through the latest research on the power of the mind in order to show why this technique works. And then he lays out concrete, unintimidating advice about how to implement visualization into their lives. In addition to teaching readers how to move into the most powerful brain state for enacting change, Jon includes visualizations to help readers: • Overcome disempowering beliefs surrounding food and weight loss • Melt away stress • Conquer fears of losing weight • Rediscover the joy of movement • Create healthy new habits • Kill food cravings and addictions • Achieve better sleep Jon not only provides readers with these visualizations but also teaches them how to create their own personalized visualizations that can be even more powerful. He then presents a four-month visualization strategy that can be easily included in anyone’s life—no matter what time constraints they face. As Jon found in his journey, the biggest challenge in weight loss is not finding the perfect diet or the perfect exercise routine; the biggest challenge is convincing your brain that your body needs to be thin.
Download or read book Creation Path of the Soul written by John Michael Paul and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2015-10-28 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We were never intended to be dominated by all the negation and inharmony that exists in the world. We were fashioned, equipped, and given power for one purpose only, and that is to transmute every negative and inharmonious condition which exists in the world. Yet, we find very few that know this is the reason for which we were created. We do not know what our true purpose is because we do not know the real foundation of our being and are not familiar with the laws of creation. We do not understand the reasoning behind the things we do in our metaphysical rituals and practices. By studying creation, we receive all the answers. CreationPath of the Soul gives an understanding of creation from the Void, to the Cosmic, to the Cosmos, down to our very soul, so we can understand what the will of the Cosmic is and what the meaning of life and our purpose in being are. CreationPath of the Soul, uses the Kabbala to go through creation step-by-step, making creation easy to understand. By understanding the laws of creation, more questions are answered than are asked. CreationPath of the Soul, looks into such topics as astral travel, the Akashic records, reincarnation, cause and effect, the conscious, subconscious and superconscious minds, and other metaphysical areas of interest. CreationPath of the Soul, has practical exercises for astral travel, reading the Akashic records for past life regression, coordinating the conscious and subconscious minds to increase intuition and transmuting the darkness.
