Download or read book The Part and the Whole in Early American Literature Print Culture and Art written by Matthew Pethers and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2024-04-12 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essays in this pathbreaking collection consider the significance of varied early American fragmentary genres and practices—from diaries and poetry, to almanacs and commonplace books, to sermons and lists, to Indigenous ruins and other material shards and fragments—often overlooked by critics in a scholarly privileging of the “whole.” Contributors from literary studies, book history, and visual culture discuss a host of canonical and non-canonical figures, from Edward Taylor and Washington Irving to Mary Rowlandson and Sarah Kemble Knight, offering insight into the many intellectual, ideological, and material variations of “form” that populated the early American cultural landscape. As these essays reveal, the casting of the fragmentary as aesthetically eccentric or incomplete was a way of reckoning with concerns about the related fragmentation of nation, society, and self. For a contemporary audience, they offer new ways to think about the inevitable gaps and absences in our cultural and historical archive.

Download or read book Baseball Photography of the Deadball Era written by Jim Chapman and published by Chapman Deadball Collection. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2024 SABR Larry Ritter Book Award for best Deadball Era baseball book. Second place finisher for 2023 CASEY Award for best baseball book of the year. While ostensibly a tool for collectors to identify and authenticate Deadball Era photographs, a purpose at which it excels, this book is so much more. At its heart, Baseball Photography of the Deadball Era is the definitive story of the rise of baseball press photographers in the early 20th century and a celebration of the visual splendors of the game they captured. Collectors have long admired the artistry of their beautiful sepia toned baseball prints from the early 1900’s. These images are visual time machines that transport us back to those halcyon days when we romanticize that baseball was pure. What collectors haven’t appreciated, as they have long been shrouded in mystery, are the stories of the men behind the lens and the photo syndicates who distributed their work. These Photographers’ indelible images brought the game from the field to the fans and helped create the baseball legends we still revere. This book lifts the veil on their previously untold stories. Through extensive research and newfound discoveries, the lives of many of the photographic artists and innovators who brought the game to life have been revealed. Their stories are as fascinating as those of the more famous men in front of the lens. Some names are iconic, such as Charles Conlon. Some should be, such as Frances Burke. Dozens more are profiled, all in far more detail than has ever been presented before. The clues to uncovering their stories are embedded in their photos and stamped on the back of their vintage prints. Baseball Photography of the Deadball Era contains extensive and groundbreaking research on identifying and authenticating Deadball photographs through the examination of back stampings. The hundreds of stamps presented, dated and interpreted in this book represent a quantum leap forward in the knowledge base regarding the era’s photographers. Of course, the book contains hundreds of gorgeous are rare images of the Deadball Era, many never seen before by the public. Longtime collectors have generously granted use of their private collections to embellish this story, and what a visual feast it is. Ty Cobb, Babe Ruth, Christy Mathewson, “Shoeless” Joe Jackson and other ballyard legends are all here, as seen in their glory days. Many readers will buy the book for the images alone. My hope is they stick around for the stories.

Download or read book On Zion s Mount written by Jared Farmer and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2010-04-10 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shrouded in the lore of legendary Indians, Mt. Timpanogos beckons the urban populace of Utah. And yet, no “Indian” legend graced the mount until Mormon settlers conjured it—once they had displaced the local Indians, the Utes, from their actual landmark, Utah Lake. On Zion’s Mount tells the story of this curious shift. It is a quintessentially American story about the fraught process of making oneself “native” in a strange land. But it is also a complex tale of how cultures confer meaning on the environment—how they create homelands. Only in Utah did Euro-American settlers conceive of having a homeland in the Native American sense—an endemic spiritual geography. They called it “Zion.” Mormonism, a religion indigenous to the United States, originally embraced Indians as “Lamanites,” or spiritual kin. On Zion’s Mount shows how, paradoxically, the Mormons created their homeland at the expense of the local Indians—and how they expressed their sense of belonging by investing Timpanogos with “Indian” meaning. This same pattern was repeated across the United States. Jared Farmer reveals how settlers and their descendants (the new natives) bestowed “Indian” place names and recited pseudo-Indian legends about those places—cultural acts that still affect the way we think about American Indians and American landscapes.
