Photographs of Gordon Parks: the Library of Congress

Photographs of Gordon Parks: the Library of Congress

Charles Johnson

D Giles Ltd
2011
nidottu
Following on from the publication of the first six titles featuring The Library of Congress' internationally renowned collection of Farm Security Administration (FSA) and Office of War Information (OWI) photographs, the 'Fields of Vision' series continues with images showcasing the work of Arthur Rothstein, Gordon Parks and Carl Mydans. Providing a unique view of American life during the Great Depression and Second World War, each 'Fields of Vision' volume includes an introduction to the life of the photographer by a leading author or journalist, and 50 evocative images selected from their work. Transporting the viewer to American homes, farms and streets in the 1930s and 1940s, they also offer a glimpse of a new narrative and intimate style that was later to blossom on the pages of 'LOOK' and 'LIFE' magazines. For many Americans of the pre-television age, the diversity and complexity of their country was defined by the lenses of these men and women. Gordon Parks was born in 1912 in Fort Scott, Kansas, the youngest of fifteen children in a poor tenant-farming family. He was working odd jobs in Minnesota when he saw the work of FSA photographers in a magazine and was inspired to buy a camera. Parks early pictures landed him a position as Roy Stryker's apprentice in 1942. Among his extraordinary FSA photos is American Gothic, which shows charwoman Ella Watson posed with mop and broom against an American flag. After the FSA, Parks worked at Life magazine. He also became a respected writer and film director. He died in 2006.

The Watson Gordon Lecture

The Watson Gordon Lecture

Helen Langdon

National Galleries of Scotland
2017
sidottu
Caravaggio's astonishingly naturalistic and provocative Cupid Victorious hung in the palace of a famous family at the heart of seventeenth-century Rome. Helen Langdon explores how the artist, famed for his originality, created a balance between a suggestion of his own world - a world of lively and rowdy street life - and a complex and ambiguous response to both ancient and Renaissance art and literature. Langdon also looks at the challenge the painting threw out to contemporary painters, whose world was characterised by extreme and bitter rivalries; often they reject his irony, sometimes embellish the painting's sexuality, and at other times convey an opposing sense of the harmony of the arts.

An Analysis of Gordon W. Allport's The Nature of Prejudice

An Analysis of Gordon W. Allport's The Nature of Prejudice

Alexander O’Connor

Macat International Limited
2017
nidottu
With his 1954 book The Nature of Prejudice, American psychologist Gordon Allport displays the crucial skill of reasoning, producing and organizing an argument that was persuasive enough to have a major impact not only in universities, but also on government policy. The question that Allport tackled was an old one: why are people so disposed to prejudice against those from other groups? Earlier psychologists had suggested a number of reasons, especially in the case of racial prejudice. Some had suggested that racism was a learned behaviour, conditioned by negative experiences of other races; others that there was an objective rationale to negative racial stereotypes. Allport, however, reasoned that prejudice is essentially a by-product of the necessary mental shortcuts the human brain uses to process the vast amount of information it takes in. Because our brains want to use as little effort as possible, they regularly fall back on simple stereotypes – which easily generate prejudice. Gathering strong evidence for this hypothesis, he reasoned, clearly and persuasively, that our natural cognitive approach is the most significant factor in accounting for prejudice. Going further still, Allport also reasoned that, once this was better understood, social scientists would be able to influence policy-makers to curb discrimination by law.

The Journals of Major-Gen. C. G. Gordon, C.B., At Kartoum

Charles George Gordon

"Now mark this, if the Expeditionary Force, and I ask for no more than two hundred men, does not come in ten days, the town may fall; and I have done my best for the honour of our country. Good bye." These are the poignant last words written by Major-General Charles George Gordon in the final entry of his journal kept at the city of Khartoum in the Sudan in January 1885, just prior to the fall of that city. Gordon and at least 10,000 residents of the city were slaughtered in the butchery which followed.Having first been appointed Governor-General of the Sudan in 1873 by the Egyptian government-with the approval of the British government-Gordon had worked hard to bring the country to order, suppressing the Islamic slave trade and uplifting the population. He was recalled to that office in 1883 following the outbreak of the 1881 Islamist uprising under a self-proclaimed "Mahdi" of Islam (the "Guided One") in the Sudan.Sent to Khartoum to organise the evacuation of the city, Gordon succeeded in arranging the safe departure of over 2,500 civilians, but stayed on with a small group of soldiers and others to defend the city against the Mahdist forces. The resultant siege lasted more than a year, during which time Gordon kept a what became a six volume journal, smuggled out in parts back to the British authorities. This journal recounted the day-to-day life, adventures, battles, tactics, survival mechanisms of the besieged city-such as the building of "homemade" landmines out of water cans filled with dynamite, and wooden dummy sentries in uniform on the city walls-among many other innovations.The journals-which read like a thriller-were also full of bitter recrimination towards the British government, which Gordon blamed for refusing to intervene, despite officially encouraging him to go in the first place.The year-long defence of the city gained Gordon wide admiration in Britain, and finally, public pressure forced the government to organise a relief column. This force however arrived two days too late: Khartoum had fallen, and Gordon had been killed and decapitated, and his head paraded around as trophy by the Mahdist leaders.This new edition of all six of Gordon's "Journals of Khartoum" is not a "facsimile reproduction," but has been entirely reset to modern standards. It contains all the author's original illustrations, digitally restored to the highest quality possible. This edition also has the original enlightening preliminary remarks by his brother, commissary-general Sir Henry Gordon, and the full set of appendices which contain supplementary letters, proclamations and other significant data.

Richter Publishing, LLC
2017
pokkari
A vividly illustrated children's book, the inspiration for "Morten and Gordon" came to author Donna L. Valentino in the form of a squirrel curled up in a boot on her back step. Valentino took the squirrel choosing her boot as a sign and began work on her first book. The story of two squirrels, brothers Morten and Gordon live on a farm and are loving it. Whether they are watching the farmer plant his crops or sampling them, they always seem to be living life to the fullest. One night, a storm comes and the brothers need to find shelter. Morten and Gordon scurry up to the farmer's porch and seek refuge from the weather in his warm boots, staying safe and dry all night long. With vibrantly colorful illustrations by Ann Pilicer, "Morten and Gordon" is sure to catch a child's eye. The farm's bright backdrop serves as the critters' playground with a new fun scene on every page. A clever rhyme scheme throughout the story will keep those younger listeners engaged as they have fun on the farm with Morten and Gordon.

The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket

The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket

Edgar Allan Poe

Unnamed Press
2025
nidottu
“My visions were of shipwreck and famine; of death or captivity among barbarian hordes; of a lifetime dragged out in sorrow and tears, upon some gray and desolate rock, in an ocean unapproachable and unknown.”In his only novel, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket (1838), Edgar Allan Poe carries his knack for the mysterious and macabre, spilt blood and cryptic messages onto the South Seas. Aboard a whaling ship, stowaway Pym will endure starvation, cannibalism, whirlpools, mad dogs and premature burials on a journey toward the frozen expanse of Antarctica. Published the year full emancipation was legalized by the UK’s Slavery Abolition Act of 1833, Arthur Gordon Pym captures the relentless anxiety and violence of pre-Civil War American expansion. Allegorical, tragic, and based on real events, this adventure story went on to inspire many authors from Herman Melville and Jules Verne, to H.G. Wells and Vladmir Nabokov. This edition also includes accompanying selected letters, essays, and criticism from Poe himself.
