Paul Getty Trust Copyright © 2020 by J. Paul Getty Trust Oral History Center, The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley ii Since 1954 the Oral History Center of The Bancroft Library, formerly the Regional Oral History Office, has been interviewing leading participants in or well-placed witnesses to major events in the development of Northern California, the West, and the nation. Oral History is a method of collecting historical information through recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well-informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is bound with photographs and illustrative materials and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable.

  • Nasty Women Transgressive Womanhood in American History
    Nasty Women Transgressive Womanhood in American History Edited by Marian Mollin With the Students of HIST 4914 - Spring 2020 The saying goes that well-behaved women rarely make history. For centuries, American women have been carving out spaces of their own in a male-dominated world. From politics, to entertainment, to their personal lives, women have been making their mark on the American landscape since the nation’s inception, often ignored or overlooked by those creating the record. This collection takes the long view of the American woman and examines her transgressive behavior through the decades. Including stories of women enslaved, early celebrities, engineers, and more, these essays demonstrate how there is no such thing as an “average” woman, as even those ordinary women are found doing extraordinary things. This collection comes at a particularly poignant time, as August 2020 marked the 100th anniversary of the ratification and adoption of the 19th amendment, which – in a landmark for women’s right – granted American women the right to vote. Virginia Tech Department of History in association with ISBN 9781949373516 90000 > 9 781949 373516 Nasty Women Nasty Women: Transgressive Womanhood in American History is part of the Virginia Tech Student Publications series. This series contains book-length works authored and edited by Virginia Tech undergraduate and graduate students and published in collaboration with Virginia Tech Publishing. Often these books are the culmination of class projects for advanced or capstone courses. The series provides the opportunity for students to write, edit, and ultimately publish their own books for the world to learn from and enjoy.

    Early Modern Low Countries 1 (2017) 1, pp. 71-134 - eISSN: 2543-1587 71 ‘From reading to painting’ Authors and Audiences of Dutch Recipes for Preparatory Layers for Oil Painting Maartje Stols-Witlox Maartje Stols-Witlox, art historian and paintings conservator, works as assistant professor paintings conservation at the University of Amsterdam. Stols-Witlox specializes in the investigation of histori- cal recipes (artist recipes and restoration recipes) and the evaluation and development of research methodologies involving the reconstruction of historical recipes. In cooperation with conservation scientists, she investigates degradation phenomena in oil paintings. Stols-Witlox is currently pre- paring the publication of A Perfect Ground, a mono graph based on her PhD thesis (Amsterdam) investigating historical recipes for preparatory layers for oil paintings in North West Europe, 1550- 1900, scheduled for publication in July 2017. Abstract Historical recipes have been used as sources of information on artists’ materials and methods since the nineteenth century, first in the field of art history, more recently also in conservation studies and the history of science. The reliability of recipes as historical sources remains an important issue. This paper examines the relationship between recipes for preparatory layers for oil painting and artistic practice by inves- tigating the authors, their intentions and the recipes themselves. Preparatory layers or grounds are applied to prepare a support (e.g. canvas, panel, copper) for painting. Their influence on the visual characteristics of paintings and their stability with age makes preparatory systems an important topic in art technological studies. Ground recipes were written by artists, amateurs and lexicographers, for artists, amateurs and the general audience.

The school is fortunate to have a man of his quality to lead it and there's an air of expectancy on campus as July draws near. Beyond his professional qualifications, which were outlined in the letter sent to all constituents in late January, Mr. Ailing boasts another strong asset — his family. His wife, Cynthia, and their two children are eager to tackle the challenge of moving to a new town and meeting new people. They hope to live on the campus. Duncan and Cynthia grew up in Bronxville, NY and attended Bronxville High School together. After graduating from there, Duncan obtained his B.A. from Yale. 1 lealso holds a Master's degree in Modern Chinese and Japanese History from the University of Virginia.
