Book Tusayan Katcinas  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Tusayan Katcinas Classic Reprint written by Jesse Walter Fewkes and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-18 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tusayan Katcinas In the use, throughout this article, of the words gods, deities, and worship we undoubtedly endow the subject with conceptions which do not exist in the Indian mind, but spring from philosophic ideas resulting from our higher culture. For the first two the more cumber some term supernatural beings is more expressive, and the word spirit is perhaps more convenient, except from the fact that it like wise has come to have a definite meaning unknown to the primitive mind. Worship, as we understand it, is not a proper term to use in the de scription of the Indian's methods of approaching his supernal beings. It involves much which is unknown to him, and implies the existence of that which is foreign to his conceptions. Still, until some better nomenclature, more exactly defining his methods, is suggested, these terms from their convenience will still continue in common use. The dramatic element which is ascribed to the Katcina2 ritual is more prominent in the elaborate than in the abbreviated presentations, as would naturally be the case, but even there it is believed to be less striking than in the second group or those in which the performers are without masks.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lolami in Tusayan This volume and the one entitled Lolami the Little Cliff-Dweller give a connected story of primitive life in that strangely interesting and peculiar region of our land where the Pueblo Indians made their homes; building their houses on the ledges of the cliffs and obtaining food by the cultivation of such patches of the soil as they could irrigate from springs or streams.

Book Aby Warburg and the Image in Motion

Download or read book Aby Warburg and the Image in Motion written by Philippe-Alain Michaud and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-09-10 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compelling analysis of the work of art historian Aby Warburg and its radical implications for the study of visual images Aby Warburg (1866–1929) is best known as the originator of the discipline of iconology and as the founder of the institute that bears his name. His followers included some of the celebrated art historians of the twentieth century, such as Erwin Panofsky, Edgar Wind, and Fritz Saxl. But his heirs developed, for the most part, a domesticated iconology based on the decipherment and interpretation of symbolic material. As Philippe-Alain Michaud demonstrates in this important book, Warburg’s project was remote from any positivist or neo-Kantian ambitions. Nourished on the work of Friedrich Nietzsche and Jacob Burckhardt, Warburg fashioned a “critical iconology” to reveal the irrationality of the image in Western culture. Opposing the grand teleological narratives of art inaugurated by Giorgio Vasari, Warburg’s method operated through historical anachronisms and discontinuities. Using procedures of “montage-collision” he brought together pagan artifacts with masterpieces of Florentine Renaissance art, the astrology of the ancient Near East with the Lutheran Reformation, Mannerist festivals with the sacred dances of Native Americans. Michaud insists that for Warburg, the practice of art history was not only the recognition of the radical heterogeneity of objects but the discovery within the art work itself of lines of fracture, contradictions, tensions, and the energies of magic, empathy, totemism, and animism. Michaud provides us with a book that not only is about Warburg but also extends his intuitions and discoveries into analyses of other categories of imagery like the daguerreotype, the chronophotography of Étienne-Jules Marey, early cinema, and the dances of Loïe Fuller. This edition also includes a foreword by Georges Didi-Huberman and texts by Warburg not previously translated into English. Chosen as one of the best art books of 2004 by the Washington Post and Bookforum.
