  • Spotlight on Social Learning February 2021: Respect Month
    Spotlight on Social Learning February 2021: Respect Month This February we are celebrating Black History Month at Sistema Toronto by exploring our Social Curriculum theme, Respect. In the year that has passed since last February, we have seen the twin pandemics of racism and COVID-19 wreck disproportionate devastation in Black, Indigenous, and racialized communities, and seen the incredible lengths that people will go to do maintain our unjust and unequitable society. The Black Lives Matter protests that surged onto the streets in the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder in May 2020 provoked people all over the world to deepen their commitment to the fight for equality and respect and against racism, and to confront the unjust realities that surround us. For educators, hoping to help our students understand the systemic injustices of the present and the history that brought us to this point, these subjects can be challenging. For musicians, trying to make sense of artistic traditions that were shaped by practices and attitudes we now consider monstrous, it can be scary to confront the past. Classical musicians in particular are beginning to confront the reality that our art form has been deeply affected by white-supremacist ideas that have excluded composers of colour and dismissed their work as less “serious” than that of their white contemporaries. Learning about the harms perpetrated by people, institutions, and ideas that we once admired can be difficult, even painful. But for every statue that must be toppled, every tradition that must be re-examined, there are new ideas to be explored, and new heroes to be celebrated.

    ART HISTORY Journey Through a Thousand Years “Forms Assembled in the Light” Week One: Early Medieval Art The Craftsmen Who Saved Civilisation - The Civilisation that Survived – Controversy Over Images – Decoding Anglo-Saxon Art - Basilicas - Illuminated Manuscripts – In Search of Three Dimensions – From the Vaults: The Lindau Gospels – Ottonian Art – The Bernward Doors - An Introduction to the Bestiary, Book of Beasts in the Medieval World - The painted crypt of San Isidoro at León, Spain By Megginede - Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=45924271 “Great nations write their autobiographies in three manuscripts[;] the book of their deeds, the book of their words, and the book of their art. Not one of these works can be understood unless we read the two others, but of the three the only trustworthy one is the last.” – Ruskin Kenneth Clark: “The Craftsmen Who Saved Civilization” From Civilisation: A Personal View (1969) People sometimes tell me they prefer barbarism to civilization. I doubt if they have given it a long enough trial. Like the people of Alexandria they are bored by civilisation; but all the evidence suggests that the boredom of barbarism is infinitely greater. Quite apart from discomforts and privations, there was no escape from it. Very restricted company, no books, no light after dark, no hope. On one side of the sea battering away, on the other the infinite stretches of the bog and the forest. A most melancholy existence, and the Anglo- Saxon poets had no illusions about it: A wise man may grasp how ghastly it shall be When all this world’s wealth standeth waste Even as now, in many places over the earth, Walls stand windbeaten, Heavy with hoar frost; ruined habitations… The maker of men has so marred this dwelling That human laughter is not heard about it, And idle stand these old giant works.
