Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1930, Chicago's Field Museum of Natural History commissioned sculptor Malvina Hoffman to produce three-dimensional models of racial types for an anthropology display called the Races of Mankind. In this exceptional study, Marianne Kinkel measures the colossal impact of the ninety-one bronze and stone sculptures on perceptions of race in twentieth-century visual culture, tracing their exhibition from their 1933 debut and nearly four decades at the Field Museum to numerous reuses, repackagings, reproductions, and publications that reached across the world. Employing a keen interdisciplinary approach, Kinkel taps archival sources and period publications to construct a cultural biography of the Races of Mankind sculptures. She examines how Hoffman's collaborations with curators and anthropologists transformed the commission from a traditional physical anthropology display to a fine art exhibit. She also tracks influential exhibitions of statuettes in New York and Paris and photographic reproductions in atlases, maps, and encyclopedias. The volume concludes with the dismantling of the exhibit at the Field Museum in the late 1960s and the redeployment of some of the sculptures in new educational settings. Kinkel demonstrates how the Races of Mankind sculptures participated in various racial paradigms by asserting fixed racial types and racial hierarchies in the 1930s, promoting the notion of a Brotherhood of Man in the 1940s, and engaging Afrocentric discourses of identity in the 1970s. Despite the enormous role the sculptures played in representing race in American visual culture, their history has been largely unrecognized until now. The first sustained examination of this influential group of sculptures, Races of Mankind: The Sculptures of Malvina Hoffman examines how the veracity of race is continually renegotiated through collaborative processes involved in the production, display, and circulation of visual representations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Social History of the Races of Mankind: Third Division, Aoneo-Maranonians There are numerous men of scientific attainments, who cannot shake off the trammels of education, and being deficient in moral courage, they dare not contradict the accepted, conventional, superstitious ideas and opinions. They take the Bible, which they consider as a divine revelation, as their text-book, and they insist that all mankind are the direct descendants of a legendary first pair, generally known as Adam and Eve, both having been created or produced by a kind of divine selection in a so-called paradise situated somewhere in Asia. These men obtain the elements of their geological knowledge from the Mosaic account of creation and the flood they base their ethnology upon the legendary genealogy of Genesis their philology on the legend of the Tower of Babel; and they derive their principles of astronomy from the astounding miracle of Joshua who made the sun and moon stand still. Men in their primitive state, when they knew nothing of ocean navigation when the surface of the globe was only scantily peopled men were no more voluntarily migratory than the animals that sur rounded them. They naturally but slowly spread by excessive multi plication but they were always attached to the land of their birth.

  • Release : 2020-04-20
  • ISBN : 9781684224517
  • Pages : 36 pages

Download or read book The Races of Mankind written by Ruth Benedict and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-20 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2020 Reprint of the 1943 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. Published on October 25, 1943, The Races of Mankind makes the argument that all the world's humans are biologically the same. Written by anthropologists Ruth Benedict and Gene Weltfish and illustrated by Ad Reinhardt, The Races of Mankind attacked Nazi party racial policies and urged mankind to see past superficial differences and live in harmony. The pamphlet was a publication of The Public Affairs Committee, a non-profit educational organization whose purpose was "to make available in summary and inexpensive form the results of research on economic and social problems to aid in the understanding and development of American policy" (Benedict and Weltfish, 1943). The idea of scientific racial equality, however, was not met with universal agreement. When the U.S. Army ordered 55,000 copies, members of Congress labeled the pamphlet "communistic" and its use by the Army was banned. Still, the scientific pamphlet's popularity grew, and by 1945 three-quarters of a million copies were in circulation (Abraham, 2012).
