Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: San Francisco: The City's Sights and Streets is a memorable photographic tour of both the well-known and little-known delights of "everyone's favorite city". San Francisco's most celebrated photographers have captured new perspectives of the Golden Gate Bridge, Chinatown, Coit Tower, Golden Gate Park, the cable cars, Lombard Street, the Transamerica Pyramid, and the skyline, both by day and at night. Also featured are lesser-known but equally beautiful vistas of the flower-lined Vulcan steps, the bustling wharves of China Basin, the palm trees along the revitalized Embarcadero, the luxurious dwellings of Nob Hill, and the charming cottages of the Sunset and Richmond districts. In addition to the more than 150 glorious color photographs of the city as it is today, this distinctive tour of San Francisco also offers historic black-and-white photographs and a lively text documenting some of the most notable events and monuments of the city, including the building of the Golden Gate Bridge and the Great Earthquake of 1906. San Francisco Chronicle writer and editor Leah Garchik provides a new appreciation of the city and an insider's interpretation of each photograph.

Book excerpt: During the summer of 1980, under the direction of his father, a photographer, Jamel Shabazz armed himself with a Canon AE1 SLR camera and passionately photographed the urban landscape that he called home. New York City-"the city that never sleeps"-was the ideal epicenter to photograph because of its 24-hour subway system and the many businesses that are open late into the night. Never without a dull moment, New York's energy inspired him to use the streets as a canvas for the majority of his work for over 35 years. Photographing in the streets put Shabazz in the heart of all of the action-he carried his camera everywhere, always set and at the ready. Like a fisherman seeking a fruitful catch, Shabazz ventured into locations full of life and uncertainty in hopes of capturing a unique moment. More importantly, he sought to gain insight into the conditions of the larger world and its inhabitants. Sights in the City is a testament to Shabazz's visual journey, contianing 120 color and black-and-white photographs, most of which have never been published. His images are both intimate and provocative in nature, each having its own DNA.

Download or read book Monumentality and the Roman Empire written by Edmund Thomas and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2007-11-16 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quality of 'monumentality' is attributed to the buildings of few historical epochs or cultures more frequently or consistently than to those of the Roman Empire. It is this quality that has helped to make them enduring models for builders of later periods. This extensively illustrated book, the first full-length study of the concept of monumentality in Classical Antiquity, asks what it is that the notion encompasses and how significant it was for the Romans themselves in moulding their individual or collective aspirations and identities. Although no single word existed in antiquity for the qualities that modern authors regard as making up that term, its Latin derivation - from monumentum, 'a monument' - attests plainly to the presence of the concept in the mentalities of ancient Romans, and the development of that notion through the Roman era laid the foundation for the classical ideal of monumentality, which reached a height in early modern Europe. This book is also the first full-length study of architecture in the Antonine Age - when it is generally agreed the Roman Empire was at its height. By exploring the public architecture of Roman Italy and both Western and Eastern provinces of the Roman Empire from the point of view of the benefactors who funded such buildings, the architects who designed them, and the public who used and experienced them, Edmund Thomas analyses the reasons why Roman builders sought to construct monumental buildings and uncovers the close link between architectural monumentality and the identity and ideology of the Roman Empire itself.
