  • 18Th Century. France and Venice
    18th century. France and Venice Antoine Watteau (1684 – 1721) was a French painter whose brief career spurred the revival of interest in colour and movement, as seen in the tradition of Correggio and Rubens. He revitalised the waning Baroque style, shifting it to the less severe, more naturalistic, less formally classical, Rococo. Watteau is credited with inventing the genre of fêtes galantes, scenes of bucolic and idyllic charm, suffused with a theatrical air. Some of his best known subjects were drawn from the world of Italian comedy and ballet. The Love Song c1717 The Embarcation for Cythera 1717 The Embarkation for Cythera portrays a "fête galante"; an amorous celebration or party enjoyed by the aristocracy of France during the Régence after the death of Louis XIV, which is generally seen as a period of dissipation and pleasure, and peace, after the sombre last years of the previous reign. The work celebrates love, with many cupids flying around the couples and pushing them closer together, as well as the statue of Venus.There are three pairs of lovers in the foreground. While the couple on the right by the statue are still engaged in their passionate tryst, another couple rises to follow a third pair down the hill, although the woman of the third pair glances back fondly at the goddess’s sacred grove. At the foot of the hill, several more happy couples are preparing to board the golden boat at the left. With its light and wispy brushstrokes, the hazy landscape in the background does not give any clues about the season, or whether it is dawn or dusk.

In her wide correspondence with mothers in regard to the training of children, she dis- covered the need of a book giving practical advice about pictures for children. A similar report came from the libraries, where the same need had long been noticed at the consulting-desks. The call from art educators and pubhc school teachers has been equally urgent. As the custom of hanging pictures in the schoolroom has become almost universal, the demand has arisen for helpful information in matters of art. I am especially grateful to Mr. Henry Turner Bailey, editor of the School Arts Magazine, and Mr. James Frederick Hopkins, director of the Massachusetts Normal Art School, for their words of encouragement and counsel.

The law of Moses is called the “ministration of death” and “condemnation.” It convinces men of .sin, the penalty for which is eternal death; and to this they are already condemned. The Gospel is the “ministration of the Spirit” that “giveth life;” it proceeds from the Holy Ghost; is confirmed and applied by him; and by means of it he conveys life, and all spiritual graces and benefits, to the souls of men (<470307>2 Corinthians 3:7, 8). The term is also used for the distribution of alms (<440601>Acts 6:1; <470913>2 Corinthians 9:13). Ministry (hd;wob[}, work; trev;, attendance,; leitourgi>a, waiting upon; diakoni>a, service). Besides the ordinary applications of this term to the common affairs of life, it is specially used in the Scriptures, chiefly those of the New Testament, to denote a devotion to the interests of God’s cause, and, in a technical sense, the work of advancing the Redeemer’s kingdom.

WINN A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2018 © 2018 Laura M. Winn To my first teachers, my Mom and Dad, for giving me the lifelong gift and love for learning ACKNOWLEDGMENTS There are many people that helped in facilitating and supporting the long and challenging journey of researching and writing this dissertation. I am grateful to all of them. None of this would have been possible without the guidance of my committee members Ashley Jones, Brigitte Weltman-Aron, Elisabeth Fraser, and Nika Elder. Thank you for being so generous with your time, expertise, and thoughtful suggestions. I am especially indebted to my advisor and the chair of the committee, Melissa Hyde, for her willingness to adopt a Classicist interested in gender studies and introduce me to the importance–and fun–of dix-huitième scholarship. Melissa worked through multiple iterations and drafts of this project to clarify and refine my arguments, helping to bring a greater coherence and new voice to the exceptional lives and artistic contributions of Henry Ossawa Tanner and Hilda Rix Nicholas. Through every phase of my graduate education at Florida she has been a vital resource and mentor. I feel incredibility fortunate to have been her student. Crystalizing ideas into a finished dissertation often felt like an insurmountable challenge. I greatly benefited from the support, feedback, and experience of my “girl gang” at Florida.

This Guide is intended to assist the educator in a course of art history or French as a second language. It contains useful information for introducing students to French art, in a cultural and historical context. Each page of the Guide includes texts which are found on the website of the Learning Resource, http://frenchart.umsl.edu. In that site, you can hear the French texts by clicking on the audiophone icon: The texts give a short overview of each work, followed by a comment on The Historical Moment, The Artistic Genre, and The Artist (if he or she is known). In addition, the Guide offers several questions for the educator to ask students, in a verbal discussion or written composition. Below the small images in the Guide, you will find supplementary information that is not found in the website: the material of composition (for example, limestone or oil on canvas), the dimensions of the work, and the accession number (for example, 3:1935) in the Saint Louis Art Museum.

  • Matthew W. Dickie, Magic and Magicians in the Greco-Roman World
    MAGIC AND MAGICIANS IN THE GRECO- ROMAN WORLD This absorbing work assembles an extraordinary range of evidence for the existence of sorcerers and sorceresses in the ancient world, and addresses the question of their identities and social origins. From Greece in the fifth century BC, through Rome and Italy, to the Christian Roman Empire as far as the late seventh century AD, Professor Dickie shows the development of the concept of magic and the social and legal constraints placed on those seen as magicians. The book provides a fascinating insight into the inaccessible margins of Greco- Roman life, exploring a world of wandering holy men and women, conjurors and wonder-workers, prostitutes, procuresses, charioteers and theatrical performers. Compelling for its clarity and detail, this study is an indispensable resource for the study of ancient magic and society. Matthew W.Dickie teaches at the University of Illinois at Chicago. He has written on envy and the Evil Eye, on the learned magician, on ancient erotic magic, and on the interpretation of ancient magical texts.
