Book The Republic of Color

  • Author : Michael Rossi
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2019-08-30
  • ISBN : 022665186X
  • Pages : 330 pages

Download or read book The Republic of Color written by Michael Rossi and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-08-30 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Republic of Color delves deep into the history of color science in the United States to unearth its origins and examine the scope of its influence on the industrial transformation of turn-of-the-century America. For a nation in the grip of profound economic, cultural, and demographic crises, the standardization of color became a means of social reform—a way of sculpting the American population into one more amenable to the needs of the emerging industrial order. Delineating color was also a way to characterize the vagaries of human nature, and to create ideal structures through which those humans would act in a newly modern American republic. Michael Rossi’s compelling history goes far beyond the culture of the visual to show readers how the control and regulation of color shaped the social contours of modern America—and redefined the way we see the world.

Book The Roman Republic  Vol  1 of 3  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Roman Republic Vol 1 of 3 Classic Reprint written by William Emerton Heitland and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Roman Republic, Vol. 1 of 3 The maps inserted in the text are not meant to be a complete set illustrating the geography of the countries and places referred to. To attempt any such equipment was out of the question, and the Muller Grundy series with its scheme of colours is surely far better than any set of general maps that could be prepared for insertion in the pages of this book. But there are cases in which the inclusion of details belonging to widely different periods makes a map deceptive to the eye when used for illustrating the events of some particular period. It is mainly with a view to meet such passing needs that l have pre pared the little sketch-maps, the leading feature of which is the omission of irrelevant detail. This is the reason why they mostly come in the first half of the book. In the later chapters they are hardly needed. To take an instance; sufficient maps of Gaul in Caesar's time abound. To improve on them would need a rendering of the physical features of the country, hardly possible without the use of colours on a large scale. In preparing the Index I have aimed at completeness, and have not scrupled to refer to the same detail under several different heads.

  • Pages : 244 pages

Download or read book The Tableau written by John George Schwahn and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tableau: Or, Heaven as a Republic The solar tract lay enveloped in darkness and silence. A dense mass of clouds filled the space. For ages it hung motionless and increased in density until it appeared as though it could be grasped with a hand. By the condition of the substances which composed the mass, it was evident that a terrible conflagration was very apt to ensue. Accumulations of combustible gases had gathered in extensive quantities. A stir among the different substances would produce cur rents of electricity, and the coming in contact of electricity with such quantities of gas would effect most terrific explosions. Such a stir came. A chilly blast set the clouds in motion. It was the first move of the gathered combination. The crest of the black mass began to heave slightly, but soon the current became stronger, and the mass began to squirm, then roll, and at last it appeared as an ocean scourged by a hurricane. For a while the scene inspired awe and admiration. Louder and louder roared the tempest, and wilder rolled the clouds. It was an awful scene and every moment the tempest became wilder. Suddenly the first flash of lightning and peal of thunder shook the heavens. The conflict had begun. Thunder could be heard as reporting cannons in the distance. The storm increased and explosions became more numerous. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Trial of the American Republic  Classic Reprint

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Trial of the American Republic Fellow-Citizens: This fiery ordeal through which our country is passing - the furnace-heat of affliction in which it is being tried; the land wet with fraternal blood, and trembling beneath the tread of contending armies, spreading sorrow, desolation and death; while the nation beholds her life flowing out like a mighty river, and stands appalled as she gazes with ghastly eyes into the dark abyss of dissolution - brings us face to face with the questions we have met to consider. Why, then, is it, grim War stalks through the land? Why these gory battle-fields and silent grave-yards? Why is blood on the nation's garments, and sorrow in the nation's heart? Three short years ago our land was the abode of peace and happiness. No other was as highly favored - enjoyed as great civil and religious liberty - was as blessed in every ramification of society. As a nation we had grown as by enchantment, and every sea was white with the sails of our prosperity. We were not only cherished with paternal care at home, but even in the remote islands of the sea, felt the strong arm of the nation's protection, till it was better to have been born an American than a King.

Book Eryxias

  • Author : Plato
  • Publisher : DigiCat
  • Release : 2022-09-15
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 36 pages

Download or read book Eryxias written by Plato and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eryxias by Plato is a spurious Socratic dialogue. It is set in the Stoa of Zeus Eleutherios, and features Socrates in conversation with Critias, Eryxias, and Erasistratus (nephew of Phaeax). The dialogue concerns the topic of wealth and virtue. The position of Eryxias that it is good to be materially prosperous is challenged when Critias argues that having money is not always a good thing. Socrates then shows that money has only a conventional value.

Book The Republic of Nature

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mark Fiege
  • Publisher : University of Washington Press
  • Release : 2012-03-20
  • ISBN : 0295804149
  • Pages : 601 pages

Download or read book The Republic of Nature written by Mark Fiege and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2012-03-20 with total page 601 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the dramatic narratives that comprise The Republic of Nature, Mark Fiege reframes the canonical account of American history based on the simple but radical premise that nothing in the nation's past can be considered apart from the natural circumstances in which it occurred. Revisiting historical icons so familiar that schoolchildren learn to take them for granted, he makes surprising connections that enable readers to see old stories in a new light. Among the historical moments revisited here, a revolutionary nation arises from its environment and struggles to reconcile the diversity of its people with the claim that nature is the source of liberty. Abraham Lincoln, an unlettered citizen from the countryside, steers the Union through a moment of extreme peril, guided by his clear-eyed vision of nature's capacity for improvement. In Topeka, Kansas, transformations of land and life prompt a lawsuit that culminates in the momentous civil rights case of Brown v. Board of Education. By focusing on materials and processes intrinsic to all things and by highlighting the nature of the United States, Fiege recovers the forgotten and overlooked ground on which so much history has unfolded. In these pages, the nation's birth and development, pain and sorrow, ideals and enduring promise come to life as never before, making a once-familiar past seem new. The Republic of Nature points to a startlingly different version of history that calls on readers to reconnect with fundamental forces that shaped the American experience.

Book The Twelve Stars of Our Republic

Download or read book The Twelve Stars of Our Republic written by Edwin Williams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Twelve Stars of Our Republic: Our Nation's Gift-Book to Her Young Citizens These evils far-seeing statesmen of America clearly perceived, and warned the people to awake to the same perceptions. The warning was heeded. They winced under the lash of commercialrestrictions, and they rebelled, as far as loyalty to their sovereign would permit, when the stamp - act cast off the disguise of ministers and revealed the despot ism that stood ready with its fetters to bind the free Britons of America. Henceforward contentions arose. The British parliament assumed the right to tax the colonies of Great Britain, without their consent. The colonies raised the standard inscribed, taxation and representa tion one and inseparable. Ten long years they humbly petitioned and remonstrated. They loved the parent-country, revered her institutions and laws, and were proud of their connexion with such an empire. But their loyal prayers were answered by other and greater Oppressions. Insults succeeded Oppressions, threats succeeded insults, and armies came hither to execute those threats. The colonies confederated, and by representatives, consulted and acted for the general good. They still clung to the hope of reconciliation; but at length that radiant star waned in the firmament, Clouds gathered in the political heavens, and the alternative was presented of Iesistance and freedom, or submission and slavery. The choice was soon made, and the weapons were speedily prepared to sever the last tie that bound America to Britain the ligament of political imion.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lands and Peoples, Vol. 7: The World in Color The Republic of Mexico lies half in the tropics, and its climate varies amaz ingly, from the dry cactus plains along the Rio Grande to the rank jungles on. The Guatemalan border. Though a very mountainous country, it is sur prisingly fertile, and can produce crops as different as wheat and rubber. No land is more splendidly endowed with mineral wealth. Cortes and his Spanish adventurers came to Mexico for gold; they found plenty of it, and silver in far greater abundance. To-day.the fortune-hunters drill for Oil along the Gulf of Mexico, and often acquire wealth only less fabulous than that of the Aztecs whom Cortes despoiled. As a republic Mexico is not much more than a hundred years old, and there are still serious problems to be solved before the Indian and Spanish elements of her population can be welded into a true democracy.
