Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gaits, Exterior and Proportions of the Horse I am not ignoring the fact that the unchecked reproduction of a defective attitude, conventionally accepted for many years, is more easy; but, in the instance of the horse, I do not believe that, at our epoch, contentment should be permissible at the following reply, frequently made to me -what does the theory of animal locomotion matter? The sculptor and artist adopt what the public, the principal judge, is accustomed to accept as movement. The artist portrays a horse which appears to walk, and that suffices him. This brings us back to the admission that we shall always rest under the influence of the not very consolatory phrase of the American philosopher, Emerson: The public above all else demands conformity. It has little affection for realities, but much for conventions and customs. Therefore, it is the public who must be enlightened, since it is they who see and observe. So far as all connected with the representation of animals is concerned, everything has remained stationary for a long time past. Custom recapitulated the vitality of movement in certain positions of the members, convention compelling the draughtsman to confine himself within the limitations of this restricted animation. N ow progress in this respect must be pointed out. Some have even attained to the mathematical observation of the gaits. Dr. Marey, quite recently, in a lecture at the Sorbonne, detailed to his auditors experiments made upon the gaits of the horse. The learned physiologist who has succeeded in the circumscription of the rhythm of the imprints in a graphic notation, affirmed that, the artists who, at the present day, make such laudable endeavours to correctly delineate the horse, can derive great benefit from a process which offers the double advantage of representing the gaits with exactitude, as well as the numerous variations of outline. This would be a valuable expedient for truthful representations; for imperfection in art is not solely dependent upon errors which may be committed, as often an artist, when acquainted with an attitude which to him appears exact, repeats it with lamentable monotony.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Masterfully integrating Europe-wide debates in science, philosophy, technology, economics, and social policy, Rabinbach has provided us with a profoundly original understanding of the productivist obsessions from which we are still painfully freeing ourselves. . . . A splendid example of the mutual enrichment of intellectual and social history. It goes well beyond its central concern with the 'science of work' to illuminate everything it discusses, from Marxism to the social uses of photography, from cultural decadence to the impact of the First World War."—Martin Jay, University of California, Berkeley

Download or read book Chronology of the Birth of Cinema 1833 1896 written by Deac Rossell and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2022-10-18 with total page 548 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written from an international perspective, this account of the origins of the cinema begins in 1833 with the introduction of optical toys for reproducing movement and ends with a thorough examination of the first full year of projected moving pictures in 1896. Comprehensive and verifiable, with citations that support each individual entry, the book examines the events that culminated in the establishment of the moving picture world that was the dominant visual medium of the last century. Drawing on a range of international sources, this chronology is a readable, vivid account that corrects many longstanding errors in the story of moving pictures while at the same time recording the astounding diversity of ideas, apparatus, personalities, and exhibitions that turned a passing novelty into a major industry. Populated by dreamers, inventors, scientists, and entrepreneurs with widely different skills, interests, and backgrounds, the many origins of the cinema are all recorded here in a rich tapestry that has been woven with attention to the detailed shape and placement of each individual thread. The result is a fully- indexed reference that reflects the state of modern scholarship and should be useful over the long term as both a reference to the period of early cinema and as a starting point for further research.
