Book excerpt: Excerpt from Private Libraries of Providence: With a Preliminary Essay on the Love of Books Two or three years ago I wrote for a local newspaper a series of sketches ofsome of the private libraries of Providence. These sketches, due in some degree, perhaps, to their having been copied into The American Bibliopolist, attracted so much attention here and elsewhere, that I have consented to collect them and to permit a limited edition to be published in book form. During leisure moments all have been rewritten, several have been added, and an essay on the Love of Books included in the hope of contributing to the interest of the volume. The sketches are merely suggestive, and are only intended to enable thereader to form a fairly accurate notion of the character and extent of the libraries described. It must not be inferred that all the works named in the different articles are, for that reason, supposed to be rare, or even scarce. That would be a gross misapprehension.

Download or read book Doing Public Humanities written by Susan Smulyan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doing Public Humanities explores the cultural landscape from disruptive events to websites, from tours to exhibits, from after school arts programs to archives, giving readers a wide-ranging look at the interdisciplinary practice of public humanities. Combining a practitioner’s focus on case studies with the scholar’s more abstract and theoretical approach, this collection of essays is useful for both teaching and appreciating public humanities. The contributors are committed to presenting a public humanities practice that encourages social justice and explores the intersectionalities of race, class, gender, and sexualities. Centering on the experiences of students with many of the case studies focused on course projects, the content will enable them to relate to and better understand this new field of study. The text is essential reading for undergraduate and graduate classes in public history, historic preservation, history of art, engaged sociology, and public archaeology and anthropology, as well as public humanities.
