The Women Who Professionalized Interior Design
The Women Who Professionalized Interior Design explores the history of interior decorating and design from the late nineteenth century to the present, highlighting the careers and contributions of significant American female interior designers who were instrumental in the creation of the field of residential and commercial interior design in the United States.This book explores how interior design emerged as a distinct, paying occupation in the nineteenth century thanks to a growing middle class and an increase in available cheap household goods following the Industrial Revolution. Focusing primarily on the period from 1905 to 1960, it addresses the complex relationships among professionals in the design fields, the social dynamics of designer-client relationships, and how class, culture, and family influenced their lives and careers. The book emphasizes significant female interior decorators and writers on design including Candace Wheeler, Elsie de Wolfe, Edith Wharton, Nancy McClelland, Ruby Ross Wood, Dorothy Draper, Eleanor McMillen Brown, and Sister Parish, all of whom are underrepresented in the historical record, relating their stories within the context of the history of design and architecture. This book is an ideal and concise resource for students and faculty of interior design and women’s history.

Beckett's Dedalus

Beckett's Dedalus

Peter J. Murphy

University of Toronto Press

Given that the Nobel Prize-winning author Samuel Beckett (1906-1989) was personally acquainted with the modernist master James Joyce, and even helped research and promote Finnegans Wake, it should come as no surprise that Beckett was greatly influenced by Joyce's own work. However, much analysis of Beckett's work tends to argue that he forged his own artistic identity in opposition to Joyce, seeking and eventually finding styles and methods unoccupied by his "mentor." Beckett's Dedalus is a comprehensive reassessment of this line of criticism and traces the nature and extent of Joyce's influence in more complex, contestatory, and complementary ways throughout all of Beckett's major fiction. Paying close attention to the extensive network of allusions Beckett derived from Joyce's writing, P.J. Murphy reveals how Beckett consistently echoed and engaged in dialogue with Joyce's works, especially A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man and, in particular, its protagonist Stephen Dedalus. This study proposes that the relationship between the two writers was a complex life-giving and art-building dialogue concerned with aesthetic theories, depictions of reality, and the artistic integrity needed to carry out these critical investigations. Beckett's Dedalus is a fascinating study of the literary influence one generation has on the next. It will change the way we consider the relationship between two of the greatest writers of the twentieth century.
DE GROTE ONTWAKING - Niets is wat het lijkt! (DEEL 1): Een verhelderend overzicht over wat mis is in onze samenleving - Hoe de bevolking mondiaal tot
Een leerzaam overzicht over wat mis is in onze samenleving. De ONTWAKING is precies dat Auteur Peter B. Meyer maakt het bescheiden duidelijk dat, tenzij wij als verantwoordelijke volwassenen nu geen actie ondernemen, de impact op onszelf, onze kinderen en toekomstige generaties onomkeerbaar zal zijn en niets minder dan rampzalig. Welke impact? Het antwoord is onheilspellend verreikend, waaronder sociaaleconomische, educatieve, culturele en ecologische aspecten. Wat de boodschap van Peter hard maakt, is dat dit niet alleen maar theoretiseren is, maar bestaat uit harde feiten die worden ondersteund door statistieken en verwijzingen naar alternatieve vakliteratuur, websites, tijdschriften en rapporten. Bijvoorbeeld: het gezin is het fundament en de hoeksteen van de structuur van onze civilisatie. Geen ander instituut in de afgelopen zestig jaar is zo grondig verwaarloosd als het 'nest' waarin onze kinderen worden geboren, verzorgd en opgeleid. Bedenk, dat de Geheime Regering opzettelijk de gezinsstructuur vernietigt en de drugscultuur gebruikt voor eigen gewin, om geheime operaties te financieren zoals o.a. terroristische aanslagen. Aangezien eenoudergezinnen steeds meer de norm worden, welke impact heeft deze trend dan op kinderen? Het antwoord is angstaanjagend, nog meer als de economie erbij wordt betrokken. Dit boek behandelt diverse afzonderlijke onderwerpen zoals sociale aspecten, het op schuld gebaseerd monetair systeem, geopolitieke veranderingen, financi le manipulatie en een verscheidenheid aan andere economische domeinen, de verzorgingsstaat met haar 'van de wieg tot het graf' subsidieprogramma's en de opzettelijk gemanipuleerde markten zijn doelbewust de oorzaak van de wereldomspannende economische crisis, dat alom leidt tot het faillissement van overheden in de ge ndustrialiseerde wereld. Het publiek moet duidelijk worden uitgelegd dat hun overheid frauduleus is, leugens en bedrog verspreidt. Dat dringend bestuursverandering vereist is, de noodzaak van een 'zelfhulp' economie en vrije markt van vraag en aanbod - waarbij persoonlijk initiatief, zeggenschap, en zorg de hoofdingredi nten zijn om het bestaande systeem te vervangen. Mensen moeten begrijpen dat oorlogen tientallen jaren van tevoren worden gepland en worden georkestreerd om de vernietiging van naties te bereiken, ontvolking, demoralisatie en natuurlijk macht en winst te behalen voor de 1% superrijken. Om diezelfde reden zijn nu alle naties van de wereld biljoenen verschuldigd aan de private Centrale Banken, als gevolg van het geld dat ze voor de kosten van papier en inkt hebben gedrukt en uitgeleend tegen rente. Zodoende is een onzichtbare dictatuur gevestigd, met behulp van geavanceerde methoden van sociale en mentale controle. Dit is tevens ook de ware betekenis van de 'Oorlog tegen Terroristen'. Het is niet gericht op 'moslimterroristen'. Het is gericht op jou en mij. Ze cre ren hongersnood, oorlogen, geruchten over oorlog, terwijl wij mensen niet langer de vrijheid hebben die we ooit hebben bezeten. De eerste stap naar wereldwijde verbetering is het afschaffen van alle centrale banken, met het niet-gesteunde monetaire systeem, de centrale planning en het fractioneel reservebankieren. Dan zal het leven op aarde zoals tot op heden wordt ervaren snel veel beter worden. In dit boek analyseert de auteur niet alleen het scenario, somber als het is, maar stelt gelukkig ook de remedie voor.

The Cemeteries of New Orleans

In The Cemeteries of New Orleans, Peter B. Dedek reveals the origins and evolution of the Crescent City's world-famous necropolises, exploring both their distinctive architecture and their cultural impact. Spanning centuries, this fascinating body of research takes readers from muddy fields of crude burial markers to extravagantly designed cities of the dead, illuminating a vital and vulnerable piece of New Orleans's identity.Where many histories of New Orleans cemeteries have revolved around the famous people buried within them, Dedek focuses on the marble cutters, burial society members, journalists, and tourists who shaped these graveyards into internationally recognizable emblems of the city. In addition to these cultural actors, Dedek's exploration of cemetery architecture reveals the impact of ancient and medieval grave traditions and styles, the city's geography, and the arrival of trained European tomb designers, such as the French architect J. N. B. de Pouilly in 1833 and Italian artist and architect Pietro Gualdi in 1851.As Dedek shows, the nineteenth century was a particularly critical era in the city's cemetery design. Notably, the cemeteries embodied traditional French and Spanish precedents, until the first garden cemetery- the Metairie Cemetery- was built on the site of an old racetrack in 1872. Like the older walled cemeteries, this iconic venue served as a lavish expression of fraternal and ethnic unity, a backdrop to exuberant social celebrations, and a destination for sightseeing excursions. During this time, cultural and religious practices, such as the celebration of All Saints' Day and the practice of Voodoo rituals, flourished within the spatial bounds of these resting places. Over the course of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, however, episodes of neglect and destruction gave rise to groups that aimed to preserve the historic cemeteries of New Orleans- an endeavor, which, according to Dedek, is still wanting for resources and political will.Containing ample primary source material, abundant illustrations, appendices on both tomb styles and the history of each of the city's eighteenth- and nineteenth-century cemeteries, The Cemeteries of New Orleans offers a comprehensive and intriguing resource on these fascinating historic sites.

Before and since its official closure in 1985, historic U.S. 66 became associated with the deserts, Indians and cowboys of the Southwest, the ""Okies"" of the Great Depression, and the millions of vacationers who took to the highway in their streamlined automobiles and found adventure on the open road from the late 1940s to the 1970s. Route 66 has such name recognition that in the past twenty years it has been used to advertise products ranging from blue jeans, to root beer, to automobiles. The highway enjoyed only about thirty years of dominance as a primary auto and truck route from 1926 to around 1956. Gradually replaced by interstates into the 1980s, Route 66 became forever fixed in the history and lore of the Southwest and the United States. Route 66 provides a unique vantage point from which to better understand American popular culture from the 1920s to the present. The purpose of this book is not to simply recount the history of Route 66, but to create a comprehensive portrait of the cultural meaning of the highway. What was Route 66 at its pinnacle, what is it today, and what might it become in the future?

This fully revised and updated edition of Peter B. Dedek's classic is a thorough dive into the history and current delights of America's Road in time for its 100th birthday! In 2026, Route 66 reached a major mile marker: it has celebrated its one-hundredth anniversary. Commissioned by the federal government as US Highway 66 in 1926, Route 66 has weathered many bumps in the road. The old road even survived a near-death experience in 1985 when it was bypassed by interstate highways and officially decommissioned only to rise again as a historic landmark and symbol of the independent American spirit and America’s love affair with the automobile. Although much along the historic highway has been lost over the years, Route 66 still has a lot to offer. Old motels, vacant gas stations, vintage restaurants, and decayed tourist traps have been preserved and transformed into sites of reverence and memory. In the past few decades, the highway has evolved into a linear community, a heritage corridor, an American route of pilgrimage sustained by a series of preserved landmarks visited by tourists from all over the world. More recently built museums, visitors’ centers, roadside parks, and Route 66–themed businesses offer tourists the chance to experience myriad aspects of the highway and the ideas it represents. This book examines the many meanings of Route 66 and how they relate to its past, present, and future. More an idea than a highway, Route 66 symbolizes a sense of freedom and benign rebellion against the constrained routines of modern life, a place where one can wander and live in the moment. The old road also represents community, wholesome enjoyment, and an entrepreneurial, independent spirit. Route 66 is a road of stories and legends.
