Samuel John Peploe (1871-1935) was the eldest of the four artists popularly known as "The Scottish Colourists." Born in Edinburgh, he was drawn to France and returned to paint there frequently, moving in 1910 to Paris, where he moved in artistic avant-garde circles. His painting style gave way to a more contemporary and expressive approach, and he used rich colors applied with more structured brushstrokes. In 1912 Peploe returned to Edinburgh and slowly began to build a successful career as an exhibiting artist. From around 1914 until his death, he sought to paint the perfect still life. A modest selection of props, including roses or tulips, fans, books, fruits, and Chinese vases, were carefully placed in infinite varieties on patterned drapery. In 1929 he explained: "There is so much in mere objects, flowers, leaves, jugs, what not—colors, forms, relation—I can never see mystery coming to an end." This beautifully illustrated book accompanies a major exhibition devoted to the artist in his home town of Edinburgh, and throws fascinating new light on Peploe's life, on the influence of France on his work, and on his posthumous reputation.Published in association with The National Galleries of ScotlandExhibition Schedule:Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh(11/03/12-06/23/13)

Jan Brueghel and the Senses of Scale

Jan Brueghel and the Senses of Scale

Elizabeth Alice Honig

Pennsylvania State University Press
2016
sidottu
Unlike the work of his contemporaries Rubens and Caravaggio, who painted on a grand scale, seventeenth-century Flemish painter Jan Brueghel’s tiny, detail-filled paintings took their place not in galleries but among touchable objects. This first book-length study of his work investigates how educated beholders valued the experience of refined, miniaturized artworks in Baroque Europe, and how, conversely, Brueghel’s distinctive aesthetic set a standard—and a technique—for the production of inexpensive popular images.It has been easy for art historians to overlook the work of Jan Brueghel, Pieter’s son. Yet the very qualities of smallness and intimacy that have marginalized him among historians made the younger Brueghel a central figure in the seventeenth-century art world. Elizabeth Honig’s thoughtful exploration reveals how his works—which were portable, mobile, and intimate—questioned conceptions of distance, dimension, and style. Honig proposes an alternate form of visuality that allows us to reevaluate how pictures were experienced in seventeenth-century Europe, how they functioned, and how and what they communicated.A monumental examination of an extraordinary artist, Jan Brueghel and the Senses of Scale reconsiders Brueghel’s paintings and restores them to their rightful place in history.

Pieter Bruegel and the Idea of Human Nature

Pieter Bruegel and the Idea of Human Nature

Elizabeth Alice Honig

Reaktion Books
2019
sidottu
In sixteenth-century Northern Europe, during a time of increasing religious and political conflict, Flemish painter Pieter Bruegel explored how people perceived human nature. Bruegel turned his critical eye and peerless paintbrush to mankind's labors and pleasures, its foibles and rituals of daily life, portraying landscapes, peasant life, and biblical scenes in startling detail. Much like the great humanist scholar Erasmus of Rotterdam, Bruegel questioned how well we really know ourselves and also how we know, or visually read, others. His work often represented mankind's ignorance and insignificance, emphasizing the futility of ambition and the absurdity of pride. This superbly illustrated volume examines how Bruegel's art and ideas enabled people to ponder what it meant to be human. Published to coincide with the four-hundred-fiftieth anniversary of Bruegel's death, it will appeal to all those interested in art and philosophy, the Renaissance, and Flemish painting.

Love for Sale

Love for Sale

Clement Elizabeth Alice

The University of North Carolina Press
2006
nidottu
The intense urbanization and industrialization of America's largest city from the turn of the twentieth century to World War II was accompanied by profound shifts in sexual morality, sexual practices, and gender roles. Comparing prostitution and courtship with a new working-class practice of heterosexual barter called ""treating"", Elizabeth Alice Clement examines changes in sexual morality and sexual and economic practices. Women ""treated"" when they exchanged sexual favors for dinner and an evening's entertainment or, more tangibly, for stockings, shoes, and other material goods. These ""charity girls"" created for themselves a moral space between prostitution and courtship that preserved both sexual barter and respectability. Although treating, as a clearly articulated language and identity, began to disappear after the 1920s and 1930s, Clement argues that it still had significant, lasting effects on modern sexual norms. She demonstrates how treating shaped courtship and dating practices, the prevalence and meaning of premarital sex, and America's developing commercial sex industry. Even further, her study illuminates the ways in which sexuality and morality interact and contribute to our understanding of the broader social categories of race, gender, and class.

She Roared in Classroom 250: The Story of Alice Elizabeth Nye Sorrell

She Roared in Classroom 250: The Story of Alice Elizabeth Nye Sorrell

Sterling N. Sorrell

Rhyolite Press LLC
2020
nidottu
Alice Elizabeth Nye Sorrell roared as an English Lit teacher in Laredo, Texas, from 1931 through 1980, while performing a dual role as a Journalist for the local Hearst daily newspaper, the Laredo Morning Times. She amazed her Mexican-American pupils, who quickly imparted to her a virtual "rock-star" social status. Vividly she fronted poetry of Anglo-Saxon literary culture from Chaucer, through Lord Byron, John Keats, and Percy Bysshe Shelley--this to astonished classrooms packed with Latino-majority student bodies whose first language was Spanish. A widowed social lioness, single parent, and early feminist, her reporting served the citizens of her town and state on a weekly basis (and often daily) for almost 75 years, from 1931 up to July 2007. Progressive she was--and would be today given current political/cultural standards. A descendant of Norse people who became English dissenters, she is exemplary of the Nye clan in America, whose origins trace from 1635, Cape Cod. A genealogical narrative reveals the lady's Viking genes, sent down by grandpa Capt. Thomas C. Nye, the family having pioneered in the Republic of Texas, followed by farming near Laredo at the end of the 19th century. The teacher/journalist's only son, a retired Texas and Colorado lawyer recounts here his mother's life, lauding her as a Rice University graduate, an early feminist, and a radical humanitarian who 'worked' Laredo, and South Texas, as an influential socialite who expressed undying love of her city and her pupils from a back-bench overview of present culture, stacked on top her Danish, English, and New England ancestry, as a NYE whose world-view was global and not parochial. This tale is one of public service, "overcoming" poverty and family tragedies which were capped by quiet victory, and the embellishing of her nine generation descent from Britannia

The poet emerges as a keen observer and chronicler of the moments of her life and the life of her mind - as she puts it, "A long trip with stops at/ The next oasis." - Dan Liberthson, PhD, author of Animal Songs Alice Elizabeth Rogoff's poetry gives us pause and leaves one hoping that we can make the world better.Her poetry takes us past moments of beauty, of hope as she leads us through journeys of tragedy in our world.Alice, thank you for these written images of insight and bravery.- Julienne Fisher - Renounce War Alice's poems from chaos to certainty to creative mystery lead us by the hand, ever so gently, through different countries, states, cities, landscapes. She starts us off with a poem "Turned Back." An immigrant woman with two children having to turn back, face life, find home. These poems are deep, questioning: they present us with things to reflect on, think about, dream of. "Dancing in the Street," charming and sad. A good ending, a hopeful poem. Another poem, "Synchronicity," a spot of loveliness, a fig tree leaf and rose bush flower reach out to each other, just as we humans do. The poet is helping us to be open to beauty, amidst despair. Her poems are thoughtful, they will get you wondering about your own canyons, basements, family, strangers on the street, your own wild and interesting life. Many are about San Francisco but include Chicago and other countries. The bluebirds, the snow, soup made out of cherries, a lonely white duck. What do we do with our dreams and impressions? This lovely book will inspire you to discover your own.- Ellen Levin, Writer.
