Download or read book Vargic s Miscellany of Curious Maps written by Martin Vargic and published by Harper Design. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable, fascinating and beautiful visual guide to the world as you have never seen it. Vargic’s Miscellany of Curious Maps is a wonderfully weird collection of meticulous and striking cartographic creations, such as the infamous Map of Stereotypes. Based on a Westerner’s stereotypical view of the world, Slovakian artist and cartophile Martin Vargic assigns more than two thousand labels and prejudices to cities, states, countries, continents, oceans and seas on a large-scale, visually stunning world map, which alone took more than four months to create. The conceptual Map of the Internet and the Map of Sports are exquisite and surprising, and infographic maps showing the number of heavy-metal bands per capita, the probability of getting struck by lightning, average penis length, and the number of tractors per 1,000 inhabitants make it hard not to share with the person next to you. Including more than 70 maps, four foldout maps and two oversized removable posters, this book is a treasure trove of unexpected facts of our quirky, glorious and diverse big beautiful world.

Download or read book A Modern Miscellany written by Paul Bevan and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-11-02 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In A Modern Miscellany: Shanghai Cartoon Artists, Shao Xunmei’s Circle and the Travels of Jack Chen, 1926-1938 Paul Bevan explores how the cartoon (manhua) emerged from its place in the Chinese modern art world to become a propaganda tool in the hands of left-wing artists. The artists involved in what was largely a transcultural phenomenon were an eclectic group working in the areas of fashion and commercial art and design. The book demonstrates that during the build up to all-out war the cartoon was not only important in the sphere of Shanghai popular culture in the eyes of the publishers and readers of pictorial magazines but that it occupied a central place in the primary discourse of Chinese modern art history.

Download or read book A Medieval Miscellany written by Judith Herrin and published by Studio. This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dazzlingly beautiful book, containing over four hundred full-color illustrations from medieval manuscripts, is basically the Middle Ages speaking for itself. These scenes from medieval life often appear familiar, intensely human, and recognizable, yet also distant. They depict the everyday concerns of people who loved, worried, feasted, starved, warred, and prayed across a vast area from Scandinavia to Constantinople, from Ireland to Sicily, and from Spain to Jerusalem for nearly a thousand years. Many recorded their fears, jokes, and anxieties, especially with their health and pains, as well as their delights. This miscellany reproduces their own words from poems, chronicles, wills, romances, epitaphs, letters, and legal regulations--and all have been translated into modern English. Drawn from history, but in no way a history, A Medieval Miscellany is a mosaic, necessarily incomplete, where the bright tesserae have been gathered from every corner and period of the medieval world.
