Painted Sermons: Explanatory Rhetoric and William Holman Hunt’S Inscribed Frames PAINTED SERMONS: EXPLANATORY RHETORIC AND WILLIAM HOLMAN HUNT’S INSCRIBED FRAMES Karen D. Rowe A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY August 2005 Committee: Sue Carter, Advisor Catherine Cassara Graduate Faculty Representative Thomas Wymer Richard Gebhardt Bruce Edwards ii ABSTRACT Sue Carter, Advisor This study was undertaken to determine the rhetorical function of the verbal texts inscribed on the frames of the paintings of the Victorian Pre-Raphaelite artist William Holman Hunt. The nineteenth century expansion of the venues of rhetoric from spoken to written forms coupled with the growing interest in belle lettres created the possibility for the inscriptions to have a greater function than merely captioning the work. Visits were made to museums in the United States and Great Britain to ascertain which of Hunt’s paintings have inscribed frames. In addition, primary sources at the Bodleian Library, Oxford, and the British Library, London, were consulted to determine if the artist had recorded his design plans or stated any specific purpose for the inscriptions. Contemporary reviews and exhibition catalogs were also consulted at these libraries. In addition, secondary sources were examined for relevant discussions of Hunt’s works. It was concluded that the inscribed works fit the parameters of explanatory rhetoric, a form informational and didactic rather than persuasive in nature. The common nineteenth century venue for explanatory rhetoric was the pulpit, instructing converted parishioners about Church doctrines and their Christian duties. It was also concluded that this shift in rhetorical purpose was not new to the Victorian era, rather that there is a long history of explanatory rhetoric going back at least to Augustine. As well it was determined that there is a long history of the use of the visual in sermonizing. Thus, Hunt’s works, addressing doctrine and duty, reflect the characteristics of explanatory rhetoric. iii This study suggests that exploration of explanatory rhetoric should be undertaken in greater detail, for it is a rich addition to the field of rhetoric, potentially reaching across the boundaries of the liberal arts. In addition, this study suggests that a re-examination of the modes of discourse be considered, according information the same consideration as persuasion and opening the door for categorizing rhetorical practice by purpose, not genre. The conclusions of this study support the contention of Robert Connors whose articles on explanatory rhetoric encourage a deeper consideration of that relatively unexplored rhetorical mode. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I wish to acknowledge the assistance of those people who contributed to the successful completion of this project. Special thanks go to Alex Kidson of the museum staff at the Manchester City Art Gallery, Manchester, England, for her assistance in arranging my visit there. Dr. Sue Carter receives special gratitude for her unfailing encouragement and timely reading of my draft along with encouragement and revision suggestions as chair of the dissertation committee. Dr. Tom Wymer has my thanks for being willing to lend his considerable knowledge of the Victorian era to my project even while on sabbatical. My thanks go to my committee members—Drs. Rick Gebhardt, Bruce Edwards, and Catherine Cassarra—for their assistance during a busy time. In addition, I greatly thank Dr. Kris Blair for her assistance with the electronic submission aspect of this project and for her belief in my burgeoning computer skills. Finally, untold thanks go to my friends—namely Dawn Watkins whose weekly postcards encouraged me greatly and Mona Dunckel who shared the adventure of graduate school with me—and to my mother without whose encouragement this project would have been overwhelming. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Page CHAPTER I.

  • The Value of Distance: Art’S Cultural Identity Amidst Technology’S Transformations of Space
    THE VALUE OF DISTANCE: ART’S CULTURAL IDENTITY AMIDST TECHNOLOGY’S TRANSFORMATIONS OF SPACE By David Hadlow Ogle Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Liverpool School of the Arts May 2018 II ABSTRACT THE VALUE OF DISTANCE: ART’S CULTURAL IDENTITY AMIDST TECHNOLOGY’S TRANSFORMATIONS OF SPACE By David Hadlow Ogle This study explores technology’s propensity to transform our comprehensions of space, considering the implications of this for our understandings of the work of art and the value that we ascribe to it. With our encounters increasingly a by-product of technological interface, the central question of this work is posed as follows: In what ways (and to what degree) may we regard the contemporary conditions facing the art object (and the values that these elicit) as a consequence of our prevailing technological landscape and its capacity to re-configure our conceptions of space and place? In confronting this, the study begins by surveying recent public justifications made for the arts and the criteria by which their value is ascertained. A trend is recognised, in the growing prevalence of instrumental qualifiers for art’s worth (its quantifiable impacts as a social utility) and a shift away from intrinsic measures. In response to this, I propose the concept of Accumulative Value, arguing that the totality of an art object’s intellectual considerations and explorations (over historical time) are an intrinsic attribute of the object itself and a qualifier of its objective worth. The notion of value itself (with its varying interpretations) is then explored, followed by a contemporary re-evaluation of Walter Benjamin’s concept of the aura, arguing that in our present circumstances this notion may be used in description of an object’s fixed spatial locality.

  • PRE-RAPHAELITES: DRAWINGS and WATERCOLOURS Opening Spring 2021, (Dates to Be Announced)
    PRESS RELEASE 5 February 2021 for immediate release: PRE-RAPHAELITES: DRAWINGS AND WATERCOLOURS Opening Spring 2021, (dates to be announced) Following the dramatic events of 2020 and significant re-scheduling of exhibition programmes, the Ashmolean is delighted to announce a new exhibition for spring 2021: Pre-Raphaelites: Drawings and Watercolours. With international loans prevented by safety and travel restrictions, the Ashmolean is hugely privileged to be able to draw on its superlative permanent collections. Few people have examined the large number of Pre-Raphaelite works on paper held in the Western Art Print Room. Even enthusiasts and scholars have rarely looked at more than a selection. This exhibition makes it possible to see a wide range of these fragile works together for the first time. They offer an intimate and rare glimpse into the world of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood and the artists associated with the movement. The exhibition includes works of extraordinary beauty, from the portraits they made of each other, studies for paintings and commissions, to subjects taken from history, literature and landscape. Dante Gabriel Rossetti (1828–1882) In 1848 seven young artists, including John Everett Millais, William The Day Dream, 1872–8 Holman Hunt and Dante Gabriel Rossetti, resolved to rebel against the Pastel and black chalk on tinted paper, 104.8 academic teaching of the Royal Academy of Arts.

The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) set out to paint with originality and authenticity by studying nature, celebrating their friends and heroes and taking inspiration from the art and poetry about which they were passionate.

  • Dante Gabriel Rossetti - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Dante Gabriel Rossetti - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Dante Gabriel Rossetti(12 May 1828 – 9 April 1882) Rossetti was born, the son of an Italian patriot and political refugee and an English mother, in England. He was raised in an environment of cultural and political activity that, it has been suggested, was of more import to his learning than his formal education. This latter was constituted by a general education at King's College from 1836 to 1841 and, following drawing lessons at a school in central London at the age of fourteen, some time as a student at the Royal Academy from 1845 onwards. Here he studied painting with William Hollman Hunt and John Everett Millais who, in 1848, would set up the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood with Rossetti, Rossetti's younger brother and three other students. The school's aspirations, in this its first incarnation, was to paint true to nature: a task pursued by way of minute attention to detail and the practice of painting out of doors. Rossetti's principal contribution to the Brotherhood was his insistence on linking poetry and painting, no doubt inspired in part by his earlier and avaricious readings of Keats, Shakespeare, Goethe, Sir Walter Scott, Byron, Edgar Allan Poe and, from 1847 onwards, the works of William Blake. 'The Germ' lasted however for only four issues, all published in 1850. In 1854 Rossetti met and gained an ally in the art critic John Ruskin and, two years later, meetings with Edward Burne-Jones and William Morris set a second phase of the Brotherhood into movement.

  • Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) Had Only Seven Members but Influenced Many Other Artists
    1 • Of course, their patrons, largely the middle-class themselves form different groups and each member of the PRB appealed to different types of buyers but together they created a stronger brand. In fact, they differed from a boy band as they created works that were bought independently. As well as their overall PRB brand each created an individual brand (sub-cognitive branding) that convinced the buyer they were making a wise investment. • Millais could be trusted as he was a born artist, an honest Englishman and made an ARA in 1853 and later RA (and President just before he died). • Hunt could be trusted as an investment as he was serious, had religious convictions and worked hard at everything he did. • Rossetti was a typical unreliable Romantic image of the artist so buying one of his paintings was a wise investment as you were buying the work of a ‘real artist’. 2 • The Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood (PRB) had only seven members but influenced many other artists. • Those most closely associated with the PRB were Ford Madox Brown (who was seven years older), Elizabeth Siddal (who died in 1862) and Walter Deverell (who died in 1854). • Edward Burne-Jones and William Morris were about five years younger. They met at Oxford and were influenced by Rossetti. I will discuss them more fully when I cover the Arts & Crafts Movement. • There were many other artists influenced by the PRB including, • John Brett, who was influenced by John Ruskin, • Arthur Hughes, a successful artist best known for April Love, • Henry Wallis, an artist who is best known for The Death of Chatterton (1856) and The Stonebreaker (1858), • William Dyce, who influenced the Pre-Raphaelites and whose Pegwell Bay is untypical but the most Pre-Raphaelite in style of his works.
