  • The AGA Song Book up to Date
    3rd Edition Songs, Poems, Stories and More! Edited by Bob Felice Published by The American Go Association P.O. Box 397, Old Chelsea Station New York, N.Y., 10113-0397 Copyright 1998, 2002, 2006 in the U.S.A. by the American Go Association, except where noted. Cover illustration by Jim Rodgers. No part of this book may be used or reproduced in any form or by any means, or stored in a database or retrieval system, without prior written permission of the copyright holder, except for brief quotations used as part of a critical review. Introductions Introduction to the 1st Edition When I attended my first Go Congress three years ago I was astounded by the sheer number of silly Go songs everyone knew. At the next Congress, I wondered if all these musical treasures had ever been printed. Some research revealed that the late Bob High had put together three collections of Go songs, but the last of these appeared in 1990. Very few people had these song books, and some, like me, weren’t even aware that they existed. While new songs had been printed in the American Go Journal, there was clearly a need for a new collection of Go songs. Last year I decided to do whatever I could to bring the AGA Song Book up to date. I wanted to collect as many of the old songs as I could find, as well as the new songs that had been written since Bob High’s last song book. You are holding in your hands the book I was looking for two years ago.

I cannot believe it. My red-pigtailed childhood alter-ego who lived in that crazy house with her horse and monkey unfettered by supervision failed to make the final cut. Exhibition curator Chris Loker shared the clash of “Mary versus Pippi” to illustrate the difficult deci- sionmaking required to arrive at the Grolier Club’s “One Hundred Books Famous in Children’s Literature,” on view through February 7 at the head- quarters of America’s oldest bibliophile society, founded in 1884. The formulation of the joint catalog and exhibition was not an exercise in nos- talgia, even as Loker recognizes, and even honors, the powerful emotional pull children’s books can exert upon memory. Her intent was to produce a scholarly tool for serious book collectors while also crafting a catalog and exhibition that would delight the general reading public as well as hard-core bibliophiles. According to Loker, “Through this project we have tried to find as many ways as possible to embrace children’s literature.” More than a century before the British Museum and BBC created the often-emulated History of the World in One Hundred Objects radio and online program, New York’s Grolier Club had launched its own “One Hundred” series. The club’s first such exhibition and catalog, One Hundred Books Famous in English Literature, dates to 1902–03.

  • PRESS RELEASE PRESS CONTACTS: Jennifer Sheehan: [email protected] Susan Flamm: [email protected]
    PRESS RELEASE PRESS CONTACTS: Jennifer Sheehan: [email protected] Susan Flamm: [email protected] At The Grolier Club December 10, 2014 – February 7, 2015 Powerful narrative, unforgettable characters, illustration that stirs the imagination, and insights that engage the mind and heart – literature for children is forged from the same enduring elements as literature for adults. Children’s books with these qualities often shine for generations, with some achieving landmark fame. A few such books ultimately go on to enter the canon of classics of children’s literature. The Grolier Club’s milestone public exhibition, One Hundred Books Famous in Children's Literature, showcases one hundred books of this caliber, printed from 1600 to 2000. On view from December 10, 2014 through February 7, 2015, the show includes such beloved books as Robinson Crusoe, Grimm’s Fairy Tales, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, Tom Sawyer, Treasure Island, Peter Rabbit, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, Peter Pan, Winnie-the-Pooh, Charlotte’s Web, The Cat in the Hat, Where the Wild Things Are, and Harry Potter. These classics and others—many famous today, some only in their time—will bring smiles of enjoyment to adults and children alike. The curator and children’s book authority Chris Loker has secured loans from major institutions throughout North America for this exhibition. Among them are the American Antiquarian Society; Beinecke Rare Book & Manuscript Library, Yale University; Cotsen Children's Library, Princeton University; Houghton Library, Harvard University; The Morgan Library & Museum; as well as numerous distinguished private collections. The books are displayed according to key themes in children’s literature: Fairy Tales & Fables, Faith, Learning, Nursery Rhymes, Poetry, Girls & Boys, Animals, Fantasy, Adventure, Novelties, and Toys.

  • Oswald Seidensticker, Bibliophile
    OSWALD SEIDENSTICKER, BIBLIOPHILE BY LILLIAN M. EVANS Juniata College Library, Huntingdon, Pa. (1ERMANS in Pennsylvania, from their earliest immigration, U created and developed industries which had a lasting influence on the culture of the early settlers of the country. Printing, strongly centered in Pennsylvania and active in surrounding states, was one of these industries. Christopher Sauer's printing press and publishing house was in existence for two generations, during which time many books, pamphlets and three quarto editions of the German Bible were published. Benjamin Frank- lin's press was also active in issuing German imprints, as was that of Ephrata where much religious literature was issued. Through the eighteenth century German presses were established in other sections and their publications became more numerous. One scholar recognized the value of knowing and preserving the knowledge of these numerous German publications. From time to time he compiled lists of the books he handled. He gathered information painstakingly in preparing lists of the books he heard about but had no opportunity to handle. Friends with first-hand knowledge offered other information, until this scholar-bibliophile, Oswald Seidensticker, brought to realization his well known book, The First Century of German Printing in America, 1728-z830. Because of its authenticity this book has been used by many people as a check-list for the early German publications of the country. The compiler, Oswald Seidensticker, had a background that was thoroughly German. He was born in Gottingen, Han- over, May 3, 1825. His father, Dr. Christian Friedrick Seid- ensticker, became connected with a German movement which wanted a more liberal constitution, and was made commander of the civil guard.

An explanation is given of the value of the use of folksongs in the social studies classroom, followed by sections on general principles in using folksongs in the home, nursery school, kindergarten and elementary school, in unit teaching, in high school history courses, in world geography, and extra curricular activities such as folk music assemblies and clubs.. A guide to further study suggests activities for classes, and lists of books, records, and periodicals that may prove helpful to both teacher and student. Although this series is aimed at helping the social studies teacher, English and music instructors will also find this of use in their classes. Related documents are: SO 005 979 through SO 006 000.

  • The Extent to Which American Children's Folk Songs Are Taught by General Music Teachers Throughout the United States
    THE EXTENT TO WHICH AMERICAN CHILDREN’S FOLK SONGS ARE TAUGHT BY GENERAL MUSIC TEACHERS THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES By MARILYN J. WARD A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 2003 Copyright 2003 by Marilyn J. Ward ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank God for His help in this endeavor. I believe that He was responsible for the good response rate and provided direction, assistance, and wisdom along the way. I would also like to thank my mother, Dr. Iva Maybelle Hollingshead, who funded and personally delivered, retrieved, and processed the information from the majority of elder study instruments. Not only did my mother physically and financially assist in this project, she has also been a constant source of inspiration and encouragement throughout my life. I owe a great debt of gratitude to both my mother and father, who are some of the most wonderful people I have ever known. Sincere appreciation is expressed to the members of my supervisory committee for their insight, wisdom, and wonderful suggestions for improvement through the many stages of this research study: Dr. Russell Robinson (chairman, music education); Dr. Charles Hoffer (music education); Dr. Budd Udell (theory/composition); and Dr. David Young (directing/theatre). Many thanks are extended to Brad Ward, my husband, who has ever so graciously funded this project, in its enormity. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS page ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ................................................................................................

As a pioneer work, the present volume must claim a little indulgence. Excepting a few scattered notices here and there, nothing dealing with the subject of the following pages has yet appeared, and facts bearing on it are scanty and scattered in many places. The lists of publications are not put forth as containing all that my material would furnish, but are merely selections culled to show types of a publisher's issue ; to fix a date, or give a variation of imprint. The names attached here and there are those of the owners of the particular copies I have consulted and do not imply that such works may not be in the British Museum or else- where. Much of the bibliographical matter comes from my own library, while my friend, Mr. T. W.
