Book Conservation of Wood Artifacts

Download or read book Conservation of Wood Artifacts written by A. Unger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The impetus for this book was the desire to systematically organize the extant literature on the conservation of cultural property made of wood, from its beginnings before the Christian Era to the year 2000. Various published reviews and monographs, including Holzkonservierung (Wood Conserva tion) published by the senior author in 1988, have appeared over the years, especially in English and in German. They have provided exemplary treat merit of individual areas or aspects of wood conservation, but a comprehen sive, up-to-date exposition of historic and current developments has been lacking. The diverse professional fields of the authors, as well as their insights into methods of conservation and restoration of wood artifacts in Europe, North America, and Asia provided a solid basis for the success of this under taking. One of the goals during the examination of the literature was that not only well-known conservators and scientists from countries that are leaders in wood conservation should be represented, but that less well-known, often not as readily accessible contributions should also be included. Only in this manner was it possible to draw a comprehensive picture of the national and international state of wood conservation. The Art and Archaeology Technical Abstracts (AATA) of the Getty Institute were very helpful in our efforts to evaluate as many publications as possible.

Book The Restorative Poetics of a Geological Age

Download or read book The Restorative Poetics of a Geological Age written by Timothy Attanucci and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2020-09-21 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At this moment, the concept of the Anthropocene is challenging us to rethink our relationship to the earth and its history, but we have not yet fully understood the extent to which our knowledge of earth history has shaped the historical culture of modernity. This study examines the relationship of geology — including its central narratives, metaphors, topoi, and other imaginative tools — to the broader historical imagination that has until now been called “historicism.” Two major figures in the rise of historical conservationism and aesthetic historicism in nineteenth-century Europe guide this study of geohistoricism: the Austrian writer, painter, and art conservator Adalbert Stifter, whose novel Der Nachsommer (Indian Summer, 1857) narrates the rise of geohistoricism through the friendship of a geologist and his art-historian mentor; and French architect and conservator Eugène Emmanuel Viollet-le-Duc, whose theoretical/abstract/imaginative understanding of “restoration,” based on the geology of Georges Cuvier, informed his practical approach. These authors reveal how geological thought provides a powerful new way to envision and reconstruct past worlds, even as it also demonstrates the erosive precariousness of our present.
