The Wilson Bulletin May Be Sent Only to Members Not in Arrears for Dues Ernst Mayr Library, MCZ DUES FOR 1929 ANNUAL DUES FOR 1929 NOW PAYABLE This is the Treasurer’s first notice to all members that dues for 1929 are now payable to the Treasurer, Mr. J. W. Stack, Michigan Agricultural College, East Lansing, Michigan. You are earnestly requested to remit at your earliest convenience, thus saving postage expense to the Club, and much time and effort to the Treasurer. A receipt will be returned only if requested. Life Members $100.00 Sustaining Members 5.00 Active Members 2.50 Associate Members 1.50 The Club values the continued support of every member, and every resignation is received with much regret. At the recent annual meeting at Ann Arbor a very considerable list of delinquent members was reported. Some of these members had been carried for a year or longer. The number in this delinquent list was so great that the Club considered it necessary to authorize and instruct the officers that the Wilson Bulletin may be sent only to members not in arrears for dues. Accordingly, this action will be put into effect with the mailing of the March Bulletin. However, those who find it inconvenient to remit by that time will be gladly allowed an extension of time if they will merely communicate with the Treasurer to such effect. The Wilson Bulletin again extends the season’s greetings to its readers. The past year has been a reasonably prosperous one and we trust that our membership feels a degree of satisfaction with our numerical growth, at least. In spite of a considerable loss by resig- nation and non-payment of dues our total membership is greater than ever before. And for the first time in our history we close the fiscal year with a comfortable bank balance. We hope, however, that this showing may be merely a stimulus to greater effort. 1 5 1929 THE WILSON BULLETIN A Quarterly Magazine Devoted to the Study of Birds in the Field and the Official Organ of the WILSON ORNITHOLOGICAL CLUB Edited by T.

An Impression of the Wood Ibises at ’Gator Lake From a water-color by George Miksch Sutton THE WILSON BULLETIN A QUARTERLY MAGAZINE OF ORNITHOLOGY Published by the Wilson Ornithological Club Vol. XLI (Old Series) No. 1 March. 1929 Vol. XXXVI (New Series) Whole Number 146 IN THE HAUNTS OF THE WOOD IRIS BY ERNEST G. HOLT Illustrated with Photographs by the Author and Frontispiece by George Miksch Sutton Southern Florida offers perhaps the nearest approach to a bird- lover’s paradise to be found anywhere within the boundaries of the continental United States. The extreme end of the peninsula is quite tropical in its faunal and floral affinities, and here one may find many organisms unknown elsewhere in the country. I had read, of course, of the tropical nature of the region, and once, years ago, had even passed by train over the Florida Keys from Key West northward; yet I was en- tirely unprepared, when a recent field trip for the Cleveland Museum of Natural History took me into the Cape Sable country, to find jungles there that might well have been mislaid by Brazil. Mangroves, that in other places scarcely attain the dignity of trees, here grow to a height of more than sixty feet and form solid forests miles in extent, while the strangling fig and gumbo-limbo abound, and even real mahogany is not rare. Surely one might expect ornithological novelties too. There- fore it was no great surprise to learn that on a small lake a few miles hack from the coast a colony of Wood Ibis was nesting. Until recently the traveler bound for Cape Sable had no choice of means of transportation, at least for the last part of his journey. Progress across country through the Everglades was practically impos- sible no matter what equipment might be employed, and only a boat of lightest draft was capable of negotiating the vast expanse of mud and shallow water, known as Florida Bay, which guards all seaward approaches to the Cape. Even with proper boats this voyage was not an easy one. Scott journeyed hither many years ago, to he followed in time by Bent and Chapman—pilgrims to an ornithological Mecca— and each has digressed in his account of the bird wonders he beheld to speak of the difficulties of navigation in these waters. Now, thanks to the misguided activities of civilization, a drainage canal has been dug from the western boundary of the Royal Palm State Park southwest- 4 The Wilson Bulletin—March, 1929 ward to the coast, and on the mud and rock thrown out during its exca- vation an automobile road called the Ingraham Highway has been con- structed to the little fishing village of Flamingo, just nine miles east of East Cape Sable. Although we had barely established ourselves in the comfortable lodge at the Royal Palm State Park, and were in no wise prepared for L camping out, when information of ‘the great ibis bird” reached us the decision to visit the rookery was prompt. Through the kind offices of the Park Warden and his family we were soon supplied with a huge box of quilts and other bedding, another of provisions, and a big sack of (in excelsior anticipation of the specimens we expected to stuff ) ; and daybreak of January 25, 1924, found us in the warden's motor truck jolting along through the mists enshrouding the Ingraham Highway.

  • TASTE and PRUDENCE in the ART of JUSEPE DE RIBERA by Hannah Joy Friedman a Dissertation Submitted to the Johns Hopkins Universit
    TASTE AND PRUDENCE IN THE ART OF JUSEPE DE RIBERA by Hannah Joy Friedman A dissertation submitted to the Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Baltimore, Maryland May, 2016 Copyright Hannah Joy Friedman, 2016 (c) Abstract: Throughout his long career in southern Italy, the Spanish artist Jusepe de Ribera (1591- 1652) showed a vested interest in the shifting practices and expectations that went into looking at pictures. As I argue, the artist’s evident preoccupation with sensory experience is inseparable from his attention to the ways in which people evaluated and spoke about art. Ribera’s depictions of sensory experience, in works such as the circa 1615 Five Senses, the circa 1622 Studies of Features, and the 1637 Isaac Blessing Jacob, approach the subject of the bodily senses in terms of evaluation and questioning, emphasizing the link between sensory experience and prudence. Ribera worked at a time and place when practices of connoisseurship were not, as they are today, a narrow set of preoccupations with attribution and chronology but a wide range of qualitative evaluations, and early sources describe him as a tasteful participant in a spoken connoisseurial culture. In these texts, the usage of the term “taste,” gusto, links the assessment of Ribera’s work to his own capacity to judge the works of other artists. Both taste and prudence were crucial social skills within the courtly culture that composed the upper tier of Ribera’s audience, and his pictures respond to the tensions surrounding sincerity of expression or acceptance of sensory experience in a novel and often satirical vein.

  • Painting Blindness and Obstructing Vision Rembrandt and the Senses
    University of Bergen Department of Linguistic, Literary, and Aesthetic Studies KUN 350 Master’s Thesis in Art History Spring, 2014 Painting Blindness and Obstructing Vision Rembrandt and the Senses Samantha L. Smith 0 Sammendrag/ Norwegian Abstract Denne avhandlingen tar for seg tre malerier av den nederlandske kunstneren Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669), og analyserer dem med fokus på tre beslektede temaene blindhet, syn og berøring. Dette temavalget er basert på Rembrandts frekvente bruk av blindhet som motiv. Den teoretiske diskusjonen i avhandlingen er inspirert av Svetlana Alpers analyse i et kapittel fra hennes bok om Rembrandt «The Master's Touch» og av den franske filosofen Jacques Derridas bok «Memoirs of the Blind». Jeg bruker Derridas begrep parergon og ruin for å utforske hvordan vår opplevelse av maleriet blir berørt både av det vi ser og det vi ikke ser, av både det synlige og det usette. Verkene analyseres både i et historisk og et nåtidig lys, ved å utforske hva maleriene kommuniserte til seere da de ble malt, og hva de kommuniserer til moderne seere. I avhandlingen drøfter jeg ulike implikasjoner av konseptet blindhet, i tillegg til å diskutere framstillingen av sansene syn og berøring. På denne måten vil avhandlingen også rette søkelyset mot betydningen av berøring i vår opplevelse av maleri, en tilnærming knyttet til det som er blitt kalt 'the sensory turn'. 1 Acknowledgements Firstly, I would like to express my gratitude to my tutor Jørgen Bakke for his, critical eye, confidence in my project and the clarifying conversations. Thank you to the members of ‘Vitensbilder’ research group.

In historical criticism, the world in front of the text is an important dimension in the exegetical process. The world of the text refers to the role of the reader in the interpretive process. In this research, the world in front of the text refers to the worlds of the artists of the four artworks being examined. This research seeks to understand how the artists understand the theology in the Lukan account of the annunciation for their time, how their thinking is reflected in their artworks, and how their interpretation is influenced by their historical circumstances. The following sections describe the historical contexts of the early European Renaissance period of Flanders and Spain in the 15/16th century and 20th century contemporary Australia. Historical Context: 15th/16th Century Flanders and Spain The ignorance of Hebrew and Greek in Western Europe in the Middle Ages helped to establish Jerome’s tradition of the Western Church, and thereby nearly all interpretations and commentaries are based on the Latin text.
