  • Author : Larry John Schaaf
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 1992-01-01
  • ISBN : 9780300057058
  • Pages : 188 pages

Download or read book Out of the Shadows written by Larry John Schaaf and published by . This book was released on 1992-01-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book chronicles for the first time in a detailed fashion the critical days of the invention and development of photography. In particular it explores the relationship between two Englishmen who played a key role in photography's early years; the preeminent scientist Sir John Herschel and William Henry Fox Talbot, the artist and scientist who had invented his own photographic process years before Louis Daguerre announced his discovery in Paris in 1839. Drawing on hundreds of Herschel's and Talbot's letters, notebooks, and diaries, Larry J. Schaaf tells the story of the evolution of photography as expressed through their words, and in the process he sheds light on some questions over which others have puzzled. Given that the camera and the necessary chemistry had coexisted for years, why rather than how was photography invented? Why did Talbot keep his own photographic process secret until Daguerre's announcement? Why did Herschel make such fundamental contributions to the process of photography, yet take very few pictures himself? Who or what provided the visual training that allowed Talbot to grow into the first photographic artist? Schaaf skillfully describes the complexities of the events, the personalities and interests of the participants, the often vital role played by trivial circumstances, and the chaotic nature of the progress of photography. He narrates the rivalry between Talbot and Daguerre, showing how it mirrored the differences between France and Great Britain in their support of science and art. Enhanced by more than 100 reproductions in color and in duotone of some of the earliest photographs ever made, this book vividly re-creates both the invention of an art and the art of invention.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last, rootless decade families, neighborhoods, and communities have disintegrated in the face of gripping social, economic, and technological changes. Th is process has had mixed results. On the positive side, it has produced a mobile, volatile, and dynamic society in the United States that is perhaps more open, just, and creative than ever before. On the negative side, it has dissolved the glue that bound our society together and has destroyed many of the myths, symbols, values, and beliefs that provided social direction and purpose. In A History of the Polish Americans, John J. Bukowczyk provides a thorough account of the Polish experience in America and how some cultural bonds loosened, as well as the ways in which others persisted.

Book excerpt: This is the first published monograph on the cyanotype process. It describes the history, chemistry, conservation, aesthetics and practice of photographic printing in Prussian blue. The unpublished experimental memoranda of Sir John Herschel, inventor if the process, are interpreted to unfold his discovery of iron-based photography, including his various formulae for cyanotype. The chemistry of the process is explained for the non-specialist, and many experimental variations on blueprinting are described. This book should interest photohistorians, curators and conservators of photographs, photoscientists concerned with 'non silver' processes and photographic print-makers who wish to use cyanotype today as an expressive artistic medium.

  • Pages : 202 pages

Download or read book Tears of Hope written by Irena Maria Rozycki and published by . This book was released on 2016-05-09 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Story of Love, Hope and Survival during Soviet Imprisonment Maria and Jozef were two ordinary Polish-Catholic farmers who were thrown into a nightmarish world situation through no fault of their own. Germany and the Soviet Union formed an alliance that destroyed millions of lives and forced people into death camps or, in this couple's case, into Siberian slave labor camps. Their courage, resilience, and faith saved them, but not before years of unbelievable and indescribable terror, disease, and starvation took its toll. Tears of Hope is the factual account of the lives of two people who endured years of separation while in different prisons, and forced division from their children, families, and their beloved homeland. Maria and Josef's story begins in pre-World War II Poland and continues through their arrest, release from prison camps, service in the Polish Army, resettlement in displaced person camps in England, and finally their early years in America, their newly adopted country. Mr. and Mrs. Pawlukiewicz remain heroes to their children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren because of what they endured throughout their lives and the examples they bequeathed to all who knew them of trust in God, love for family, and loyalty to their country.
