A Cyclopedia of Reproductions on Sale THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART A CYCLOPEDIA OF REPRODUCTIONS ON SALE PART I GENERAL INFORMATION NEW YORK 1939 NOTE The following pages, which compose Part I of A Cy­ clopedia of Reproductio?ts on Sale, give the nature, size, and price of reproductions sold at the Museum, arranged alphabetically according to type of reproduction. Most of the original objects are in the Museum collections and most of the reproductions are made by the Museum, but a few objects from other places and reproductions by other publishers are listed here. As practically all the objects in the Museum collections except casts and prints have been photographed by the Museum (see pp. 25 ff.), no complete catalogue of photo­ graphs is published. The most satisfactory method of selection is to consult the record photographs on file at the Information Desk of the Museum. When this is im­ possible, the following publications are suggested as help­ ful guides: Photographs: American and European Paint­ ings, XIV to XX Century, and American and European Sculpture, XVIII to XX Century (Part II of A Cyclo­ pedia of Reproductions on Sale), a complete list in these two fields; Postcards (Part III of A Cyclopedia of Repro­ ductions on Sale), which lists a number of important ob­ jects in the collections; Photographs and Publications Illustrating History and Daily Life from Ancient Times to the XIX Century Including Photographs of Costume Dolls (Part IV of A Cyclopedia of Reproductions on Sale), a suggestive list of material selected primarily fot its documentary value; the Handbook of the Classical Collection ($1.00), which discusses the life and art of Greece and Rome; the Handbook of the Pierpont Mor- NOTE ganWing ($2.50), which describes and illustrates Euro­ pean furniture, woodwork, tapestries, metalwork, enamels, ivories, and other forms of decorative art from the fourth through the eighteenth century, with special emphasis on French work; the Handbook of Mohammedan Dec­ orative Arts ($2.00), which takes up historically the miniature painting, calligraphy, bookbinding, sculpture, ivory and intarsia work, woodwork, metalwork, glass, ceramics, and textiles of the Near East, and is profusely illustrated in halftone and color; and the Handbook of The American Wing ($1.50), which illustrates and de­ scribes American woodwork and furnishings from the seventeenth century to the early nineteenth. In ordering by mail any of these publications (except the first three, which are sent free on request) ten cents for postage should be added to the price given in parentheses. A complete list of Museum publications is given in the folder Publications on Sale, which will be sent on re­ quest. When ordering reproductions by mail, please address the Secretary of the Museum and make remittance by post-office order or check on New York, drawn to the order of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, or, from foreign countries, by international money order. Mailing charges should be added as noted herein. It is the custom of the Museum not to ship orders in advance of payment. HENRY W.

It was his parents who urged him to apply to AUB where he is now a third-year student majoring in chemical engineering. A recipient of the Abdul Ghani Hammour Scholarship, Charbel says that he loves being at AUB and is taking full advantage of its rich campus life. A member of the Chemical Engineering Student Society and Engineers Without Borders, Charbel also participated in International Biodiversity Day at AUB (IBDAA) in April, an annual event organized by the Nature Conservation Center.

  • Dwelling in the Dunes: Traditional Use of the Dune Shacks
    Dwelling in the Dunes: Traditional Use of the Dune Shacks of the Peaked Hill Bars Historic District, Cape Cod Robert J. Wolfe Final Report for the Research Project, “Traditional Cultural Significance of the Dune Shacks Historic District, Cape Cod National Seashore” (No. P4506040200), Supported by the National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior August 2005 Cover Picture: Theo Cozzi Poulin, Kathie Joseph Meads, Maureen Joseph Hurst, and Susan Leonard at the Tasha Shack in the Peaked Hill Bars Historic District, Cape Cod National Seashore, August, 2004. Picture by Robert J. Wolfe. Abstract: Dwelling in the Dunes This ethnographic report provides a picture of the traditions and cultural patterns of the dune dwellers living in shacks in the Peaked Hill Bars Historic District, Cape Cod National Seashore, Massachusetts. The report describes the seasonal settlement of dune dwellers, and documents their traditional cultural practices, beliefs, customs, and histories that are linked to the shacks and the historic district. Information for the report primarily derives from direct observations on the lower cape and formal interviews with 47 shack residents during August and September, 2004. The research was supported by the National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior (“Traditional Cultural Significance of the Dune Shacks Historic District, Cape Cod National Seashore,” No. P4506040200). The report describes a “dune shack society” comprised of shack users, with a core of about 250 shack residents with connections to perhaps another 1,100 to 1,700 shack users. The group traces its history about one hundred years. Several shacks have housed four-generations of family members.

  • Robert Louis Stevenson by GK CHESTERTON
    Robert Louis Stevenson BY G. K. CHESTERTON CHAPTER I "THE MYTH OF STEVENSON" IN this brief study of Stevenson I propose to follow a somewhat unusual course; or to sketch what may be considered a rather eccentric outline. It can only be justified in practice; and I have a healthy fear that my practice will not justify it. Nevertheless, I have not adopted it without considerable thought, and even doubt, about the best way of dealing with a real and practical problem. So before it collapses completely in practice, I will give myself the triumph and the joy of justifying it in principle. The difficulty arises thus. In the great days of Stevenson critics had begun to be ashamed of being critics, and of giving to their ancient function the name of criticism. It was the fashion to publish a book that was a bundle of reviews and to call it "Appreciations." But the world advances; and if that sort of book is published now, it might well bear the general title of "Depreciations." Stevenson has suffered more than most from this new fashion of minimising and finding fault; and some energetic and successful writers have thrown themselves into the business almost with the eagerness of stockbrokers, bent on making a slump instead of a boom in Stevenson Stock. It may be questioned whether we need welcome the bear any more than the bull in the china- shop of elegant English letters. Others seem to make quite a hobby of proving a particular writer to be overrated. They write long and laborious articles, full of biographical detail and bitter commentary, in order to show that the subject is unworthy of attention; and write pages upon Stevenson to prove that he is not worth writing about.
