Book The Real Thing

    Book Details:
  • Author : Miles Orvell
  • Publisher : UNC Press Books
  • Release : 2014-08-25
  • ISBN : 1469615371
  • Pages : 421 pages

Download or read book The Real Thing written by Miles Orvell and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2014-08-25 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this classic study of the relationship between technology and culture, Miles Orvell demonstrates that the roots of contemporary popular culture reach back to the Victorian era, when mechanical replications of familiar objects reigned supreme and realism dominated artistic representation. Reacting against this genteel culture of imitation, a number of artists and intellectuals at the turn of the century were inspired by the machine to create more authentic works of art that were themselves "real things." The resulting tension between a culture of imitation and a culture of authenticity, argues Orvell, has become a defining category in our culture. The twenty-fifth anniversary edition includes a new preface by the author, looking back on the late twentieth century and assessing tensions between imitation and authenticity in the context of our digital age. Considering material culture, photography, and literature, the book touches on influential figures such as writers Walt Whitman, Henry James, John Dos Passos, and James Agee; photographers Alfred Stieglitz, Walker Evans, and Margaret Bourke-White; and architect-designers Gustav Stickley and Frank Lloyd Wright.

  • ISBN : 9780267424405
  • Pages : 374 pages

Download or read book Domestic Science written by Pearl L. Bailey and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Domestic Science: Principles and Application, a d104book for Schools This textbook is arranged to meet the needs of schools having a two-year course in Domestic Science, and an effort has been made to present the fundamental principles, together with their application, in a simple, natural sequence that is adapted to the needs of the large majority of public and private schools. A text of this kind does away with the keeping of elaborate notebooks on the part of the pupils, saves for more important things the time used in dictating notes, and makes the work more permanent and uniform through out. The arrangement of the subject matter by lessons does not necessarily limit the course to 64 lessons. If the students are old enough, additional reading may be used to supplement the subject matter, and several recipes are given under each application to afford plenty of practical work for classes having more than one lesson each week. The usual length of the class period is 1% hours, and one recipe is all that can be done well in that time.

Book Novel Craft

    Book Details:
  • Author : Talia Schaffer
  • Publisher : OUP USA
  • Release : 2011-09-23
  • ISBN : 0195398041
  • Pages : 241 pages

Download or read book Novel Craft written by Talia Schaffer and published by OUP USA. This book was released on 2011-09-23 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domestic handicraft was an extraordinarily popular leisure activity in Victorian Britain, especially amongst middle-class women. Craftswomen pasted shells onto boxes, stitched fish scales onto silk, scorched patterns into wood, cast flower petals out of wax, and made needlework portraits of the royal spaniels. Yet despite its ubiquity, little has been written about this curious hobby. Providing a much-needed history of this under-studied phenomenon, Talia Schaffer demonstrates the importance of domestic handicraft in Victorian literature and culture.Novel Craft presents what Schaffer terms the "craft paradigm" -- a set of beliefs about representation, production, consumption, value, and beauty that were crucial to mid-Victorian thought. She uncovers how handicrafts expressed anxieties about modernity and offered an alternative to the conventional financial, political, and aesthetic ideas of the era. Novel Craft reveals how this mindset evolves in four major Victorian novels: Gaskell's Cranford, Yonge's The Daisy Chain, Dickens's Our Mutual Friend, and Oliphant's Phoebe Junior. Each chapter centers on a scene of craft production that expresses the novel's ideals and also interrogates the novel itself as a form of craft, and each chapter highlights an influential craft genre: paper crafts, pressed flowers, knitting, and hair jewelry. The book closes with a coda on the current resurgent crafts movement of Etsy.com as a fresh version of a Victorian sensibility.Featuring illustrations from two centuries of domestic handicraft, Schaffer deftly combines cultural history and literary analyses to create a revealing portrait of a neglected part of nineteenth-century life and highlights its continuing relevance in today's world of Martha Stewart, women's magazine crafts, and a rapidly expanding alt craft culture.
