Called “xylographic printing,” it was used before Gutenberg for illustrations, playing cards, and small documents. Moveable type allowed corrections and editing. A wood engraving uses the end grain, where a wood cut uses the plank grain. Polymer plates are made from digital files which drive special engraving machines to produce relief plates. These plates are popular with many of today’s letterpress printers who produce invitations, and collectible prints. Metal relief cylinders were used to print repetitive designs, such as those on wrap - ping paper and wall paper. In the 1930s, the invention of cellophane led to the development of the anilox roller and flexographic printing. Today, flexography prints most of the flexible packaging film which accounts for about half of all packaged products. Hobbyists, artists, and printmakers cut away non-printing areas on sheets of linoleum to create relief surfaces. Wood cut Wood engraving and Metal plate Relief cylinder Flexographic plate Linoleum cut Foundry type began with Gutenberg and evolved through Jenson, Garamond, Moveable type Caslon and many others. Garamond was the first printer to cast type that was sold to other printers. By the 1880s there were almost 80 foundries in the U.S. One newspaper could keep one foundry in business. Machine typesetting changed the status quo and the Linotype had an almost immediate effect on type foundries. Twenty-three foundries formed American Type Founders in 1890.

When Is an Agrarian Not an Agrarian? A Reading of Robert Penn Warren’s “The Briar Patch” Clare Byrne King’s College, London Critics have tended to fall into one of two camps on the matter of Robert Penn Warren’s participation in the Southern Agrarian movement. They have either agreed with Hugh Ruppersburg that “Agrarianism is…the essential premise on which [Warren’s] American explorations have rested” (30), or with Paul Conkin that “never” did Warren “ever write a single essay in which he committed himself, philosophically, to any version of Agrarian ideology” (105). As a result, his literary output has often either been read as a direct expression of Southern Agrarianism, or exonerated from any connection to it. I propose that Warren’s relationship to Agrarianism was much more complex and conflicted than either of these positions allows, and that this is evident even in the essays he explicitly contributed to the movement.

  • Keep on Moving: Studying African Americans Movements by Malaika
    Keep on Moving: Studying African Americans Movements Malaika Rudolph-Fletcher Summer 2009 Dr. Gordon Education Policy and Leadership 834 An Interpretive History of African American Education Part II: 1950 to the Present 1 Purpose: The purpose of this year long theme is to challenge and empower young African American students for the future. It is my belief that academic achievement is related to a positive understanding of one’s identity and culture despite the majority’s attempts to malign and denigrate it through media stereotypes, majority perspectives, and lack of culturally representative texts. After reading several books in this class and much discussion, it became imperative for me to develop not just a unit for this class, but a theme that could be used for the entire year to engage my students. The title of this year long theme is “Keep on Moving” because as a group of people, African Americans have moved past obstacles and barriers to assert their position in America. Further, Peter Murrell (2002) stated that as part of the specific cultural practices in an African-Centered Pedagogy, teachers must employ a living curriculum, like a “movement history”, to help students address the historical and contemporary struggles of African American people. As Peter Murrell (2002) asserted there is a definitive cultural and intellectual history that has emerged from the collective experiences of African Americans…and it has an important relationship to what education truly means in the collective memory of descendants of Africans in America.

    By PAUL KINGSBURY, BA’80 The thorny legacy of Vanderbilt’s Fugitives and Agrarians Pride and Prejudice t’s one of the most famous and cherished photographs in Vanderbilt’s history. Allen Tate, Merrill Moore, Robert Penn Warren, John Crowe Ransom, Donald Davidson. Five balding white men, dressed impeccably in suits and ties, are seated outdoors, Iobviously posed by photographer Joe Rudis to appear as if lost in con- versation. Despite the artifice, the subjects seem relaxed and even playful, what with Moore practically sitting on Tate’s lap, Warren lean- ing in as if to insert a word edgewise, and the entire group looking to Allen Tate as if expecting a clever remark. It was a happy moment for the old friends. It was 1956, and after three decades of being ignored by the University, the Fugitives had returned to campus in glory for a colloquium devoted to their literary work.

  • Interview with Wood Engraver, Pete Lawrence
    #NWConnect: Interview with wood engraver, Pete Lawrence Kimberly Glassman (KG): Hello everyone! We have Pete Lawrence here from the Society ​ of Wood Engravers to talk to us about his work and the work of the Society in general. Pete was introduced to the Society of Wood Engravers (SWE) when he started helping hang their annual exhibitions in the 1980s. In 1991 he began his own engravings and joined as a subscriber in the mid-1990s. He was then elected as a member in 1997 and joined the SWE as a designer in 1998, and then finally became a chairman from 2006 until 2011. We are very excited to have you, so thank you Pete for agreeing to do this podcast with us! Pete Lawrence (PL): Thank you for inviting me. ​ KG: No worries! So, just to start, can you please tell us about your practice as a wood ​ ​ engraver and maybe explain a bit more about the process of wood engraving and what it is? PL: Yes, wood engraving is a unique form of producing a print - an image on paper. It goes ​ back to the times in the 1780s-1790s when, who we like to call the ‘founding father of wood engraving’, Thomas Bewick, was working up in Newcastle. He realised that, although his ​ ​ boss Ralph Beilby was working on metal engraving with very sharp tools, he could engrave ​ ​ on boxwood and produce a very fine image, which would replicate the kind of detail that you get by working on metal. So if you could imagine, it gave the effect of metal tools used to do silversmithing and copper engraving, but working on the end grain of boxwood.

  • Printmaking – Woodcut Design Name:______
    PRINTMAKING – WOODCUT DESIGN NAME:___________ Woodcut and wood engraving, prints are made from designs cut in relief on wood (subtractive process), in contrast to copper or steel engraving and etching (which are intaglio). Woodcuts are relief prints. The design is drawn on the surface of a wooden block or plank. The areas that are to be blank are cut away, leaving raised the design that is to be printed. Ink is then rolled or daubed over the raised area. A sheet of paper is placed on top of the block and pressed against it, either in a press or by hand. This pressure transfers the ink to the paper. Since the print is the mirror image of the design on the block, the image must be conceived in reverse. A rubber stamp is a common example of a relief printing process. Woodcutting, the oldest method of printmaking, is accomplished using soft wood with a knife employed along the grain. Concert Poster Design STEP ONE: Decide on one of the following choices for your woodcut design: • Poster Advertisement (Upcoming Performance) • Portrait: Human or Animal • Landscape (Look at reverse for art history of woodcuts) STEP TWO: Begin by making a series of at least 3 conceptual sketches in your sketchbook on your chosen theme. CONSIDER: Positive/negative space, contrast, line and overall composition. STEP THREE: Drawing the reverse outline of your subject matter on the flat top of the piece of wood. REMEMBER: to draw the outline of any text backwards as the print will print front wards. Carefully consider how you design your positive/negative space.
