  • The English Dream Vision
    The English Dream Vision ANATOMY OF A FORM J. Stephen Russell The English Dream Vision ANATOMY OF A FORM By J. Stephen Russell The first-person dream-frame nar­ rative served as the most popular English poetic form in the later Mid­ dle Ages. In The English Dream Vision, Stephen Russell contends that the poetic dreams of Chaucer, Lang- land, the Pearl poet, and others employ not simply a common exter­ nal form but one that contains an internal, intrinsic dynamic or strategy as well. He finds the roots of this dis­ quieting poetic form in the skep­ ticism and nominalism of Augustine, Macrobius, Guillaume de Lorris, Ockham, and Guillaume de Conches, demonstrating the interdependence of art, philosophy, and science in the Middle Ages. Russell examines the dream vision's literary contexts (dreams and visions in other narratives) and its ties to medieval science in a review of medi­ eval teachings and beliefs about dreaming that provides a valuable survey of background and source material. He shows that Chaucer and the other dream-poets, by using the form to call all experience into ques­ tion rather than simply as an authen­ ticating device suggesting divine revelation, were able to exploit con­ temporary uncertainties about dreams to create tense works of art. continued on back flap "English, 'Dream Vision Unglisfi (Dream Vision ANATOMY OF A FORM J.

  • Speech Delivered to Those Gathered Around the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C
    Let’s Remember Hope … When we think of Dr. King most of us remember his “I have a Dream” speech delivered to those gathered around the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. in 1963. There have been few memorable speeches made before or since then. The words of Dr. King will linger on for many more years to come. He dreamed of a day when racial justice and equality would come true. Of course, with all the recent tragic events happening in our country his dream has yet to be completely fulfilled. • Some of you are too young to understand what certain Americans had to endure • Some of you never saw the separate drinking fountains for whites and blacks or colored balconies in movie theatres • Some of you are too young to understand how a tired and thoroughly respectable Negro seamstress, named Rosa Parks, could be thrown in jail and fined simply because she refused to give up her seat on an Alabama bus so a white man could sit down And that list could go on and on. Our history in America isn’t often ‘pretty or just’ especially when Americans can’t eat at certain lunch counters – when Americans can’t register in motels or use particular bathrooms or when Americans can’t buy or rent a home wherever they chose or when Americans can’t attend certain schools all because of the color of their skin. I’m a white woman from Chicago. I was only 7 years old when Dr. King gave his speech. I did not really hear or learn about his famous speech until I was in High School which was long after Dr.

  • EXPOSE YOURSELF to ART Towards a Critical Epistemology of Embarrassment
    EXPOSE YOURSELF TO ART Towards a Critical Epistemology of Embarrassment Gwyneth Siobhan Jones Goldsmiths University of London PhD Thesis 2013 1 I declare that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Gwyneth Siobhan Jones 2 ABSTRACT This thesis investigates the negative affect of ‘spectatorial embarrassment’, a feeling of exposure and discomfort sometimes experienced when looking at art. Two particular characteristics of embarrassment figure in the methodology and the outcome of this enquiry; firstly that embarrassment is marginal, of little orthodox value, and secondly, it is a personal experience of aversive self-consciousness. The experiential nature of embarrassment has been adopted throughout as a methodology and the embarrassments analysed are, for the most part, my own and based on ‘true’ experience. Precedent for this is drawn from ‘anecdotal theory’, which uses event and occasion in the origination of a counter-theory that values minor narratives of personal experience in place of the generalising and abstract tendencies of theory-proper. The context is a series of encounters with artworks by Gilbert & George, Jemima Stehli, Franko B, Adrian Howells, and Sarah Lucas. They are connected by their contemporaneity, their ‘British-ness’, and that they allow the spectator no comfortable position to look from. This enquiry engages with theories of ‘the gaze’ (as both aesthetic disinterest and a dubious sign of cultural competence) and the challenge to aesthetic disinterest made by ‘transgressive art’ which may provoke a more engaged, even embodied response. Each encounter sparks consideration of differing causes and outcomes of embarrassment that resonate beyond art to broader sociocultural territories particularly in terms of gender and class.

  • Art of Burning Man 2013 Art of Burning Man 2013
    Art of Burning Man 2013 Art of Burning Man 2013 The playa is a tabula rasa, a blank canvas upon which many a fantastic vision has been realized. Submarines, gigantic ducks, swimmers, fire-breathing thistles, serpents, chan- deliers, grandfather clocks and balsa wood temples have emerged from the playa. The projects featured in this guide were selected as Honorarium projects for 2013. Ev- ery year Burning Man allocates a percentage of its revenue from ticket sales to funding select art projects that are collaborative, community-oriented and interactive. We do this in order to support the Burning Man art community, and to facilitate the creation of outstanding art for Black Rock City. The vast majority of art installations on the pla- ya, however, are not funded. In 2013, a percentage of your hard-earned ticket money BLACK ROCK CITY helped to fund the following art installations, for all Burning Man participants to enjoy. GO CU This guide was put together using availble information on the web and references ma- CAR LT terials that origninate from the artists’ websites, fundraising projects and press. Photos used are also from these sources and may not credit the original photographer (please forgive us for that!). We hope this guide will illuminate the artists’ vision, and illustrate the immense amount of work that goes into bringing their magic cargo to the playa. 2013 Come visit the Artery in BRC at 6:30 and Esplanade to pick up self-guided tour maps that make a great companion to this guide.

This work is not a commentary nor an exposition of the Book of Daniel as a book, but merely a brief exposition of its prophetical part. Hence the reader will not find in it any discussion of controverted points connected with the date, authorship, authenticity and inspiration of the book. The author of this work proceeds upon the accepted and well-nigh universal belief of evangelical Christendom upon these questions, and, consequently, does not enter upon their discussion at all, as matters or things in doubt or requiring discussion. That the Book of Daniel was really written by the one who claims to have written it, and at the time, place and circumstances in which he states that it was done, to the great mass of evangelical and orthodox Christen¬ dom is not an open question, and admits of scarcely a reasonable doubt.

  • On the Reconstruction and Transmission of Artistic Gestures
    intervalla: Vol.5. 2018 ISSN: 2296-3413 Introduction. From Loss to Survivals: on the Reconstruction and Transmission of Artistic Gestures Gabriel N. Gee Franklin University Switzerland TETI Group (Textures and Experiences of Trans-Industriality) This Intervalla issue on Loss and survivals: on the transmission and reconstruction of artistic gestures brings together articles that explore mimicry, transfer and resurgence of gestures in artistic practices. The project has its roots in a panel session organised by the TETI Group (Textures and Experiences of Trans-Industriality) at the 2014 conference of the Association of Critical Heritage Studies at the University of Canberra. The authors look at different types of artistic practices, from performance art to painting and architectural drawing, thereby offering an insight into modes through which gestures can be worked upon as revealing materials in artistic production. The volume combines studies stemming from art historical perspectives, as well as artistic research and aesthetic reflections by artists. In doing so, it aims to shed light onto some fruitful pathways through which gestures can be purposefully conveyed by contemporary artistic strategies to reveal hidden textures of our individual and collective beings.
