  • The Concept of Appraisal and Archival Theory
    328 American Archivist / Vol. 57 / Spring 1994 Research Article Downloaded from http://meridian.allenpress.com/american-archivist/article-pdf/57/2/328/2748653/aarc_57_2_pu548273j5j1p816.pdf by guest on 29 September 2021 The Concept of Appraisal and Archival Theory LUCIANA DURANTI Abstract: In the last decade, appraisal has become one of the central topics of archival literature. However, the approach to appraisal issues has been primarily methodological and practical. This article discusses the theoretical implications of appraisal as attribution of value to archives, and it bases its argument on the nature of archival material as defined by traditional archival theory. About the author: Luciana Duranti is associate professor in the Master of Archival Studies Pro- gram, School of Library, Archival, and Information Studies, at the University of British Columbia. Before leaving Italy for Canada in 1987, she was professor-researcher in the Special School for Archivists and Librarians at the University of Rome. She obtained that position in 1982, after having held archival and teaching posts in the State Archives of Rome and its School, and in the National Research Council. She earned a doctorate in arts from the University of Rome (1973) and graduate degrees in archival science and diplomatics and paleography from the University of Rome (1975) and the School of the State Archives of Rome (1979) respectively. The Concept of Appraisal and Archival Theory 329 Appraisal is the process of establishing the preceded by an exploration of the concept value of documents made or received in the of appraisal in the context of archival the- course of the conduct of affairs, qualifying ory, but only by a continuous reiteration of that value, and determining its duration.

  • Treasures of the World: Preserving Rare Book Collections 1
    Running head: TREASURES OF THE WORLD: PRESERVING RARE BOOK COLLECTIONS 1 Treasures of the World: Preserving Rare Book Collections David Glauber 1 December 2016 Dr. Niu University of South Florida TREASURES OF THE WORLD: PRESERVING RARE BOOK COLLECTIONS 2 Treasures of the World: Preserving Rare Book Collections Rare books and other cultural artifacts maintained by special collections librarians are of great importance to society. They are historical objects that reflect the development and growth of culture and are desired and sought after by collectors from around the globe (Rinaldo, 2007, p. 38). Books, such as a first edition of William Shakespeare’s plays, the first English language dictionary, and surviving copies of the Gutenberg Bible reflect what may be considered rare books (Robinson, 2012, pp. 513-14). It is the collectable nature of the resources and their value that make a book rare, not just its age. Age is not sufficient to be considered rare, explains librarian Fred C. Robinson as there are “many books that survive in only a few copies [that] are of no value because they are inherently worthless to begin with” (p. 514). In addition to maintaining rare books, special collections librarians, also known as curators, oversee archival materials and fragile materials, which are housed in a special collections department. Within this department, curators create a protective environment for these resources, monitoring lighting conditions and air flow, with the goal of extending the shelf life of these cultural artifacts for generations to come (Cullison & Donaldson, 1987, p. 233). However, collections all over the world face great challenges, including budgetary and space shortages, negligence in recognizing cultural and historical value, challenges in preserving books that are already in fragile, deteriorating condition, and dilemmas over how to provide access to rare books and objects that are of a fragile nature.

  • Morality and Nationalism
    Morality and Nationalism This book takes a unique approach to explore the moral foundations of nationalism. Drawing on nationalist writings and examining almost 200 years of nationalism in Ireland and Quebec, the author develops a theory of nationalism based on its role in representation. The study of nationalism has tended towards the construction of dichotomies – arguing, for example, that there are political and cultural, or civic and ethnic, versions of the phenomenon. However, as an object of moral scrutiny this bifurcation makes nationalism difficult to work with. The author draws on primary sources to see how nationalists themselves argued for their cause and examines almost two hundred years of nationalism in two well-known cases, Ireland and Quebec. The author identifies which themes, if any, are common across the various forms that nationalism can take and then goes on to develop a theory of nationalism based on its role in representation. This representation-based approach provides a basis for the moral claim of nationalism while at the same time identifying grounds on which this claim can be evaluated and limited. It will be of strong interest to political theorists, especially those working on nationalism, multiculturalism, and minority rights. The special focus in the book on the Irish and Quebec cases also makes it relevant reading for specialists in these fields as well as for other area studies where nationalism is an issue.

  • Rudolf Steiner's Theories and Their Translation Into Architecture
    Rudolf Steiner’s Theories and Their Translation into Architecture by Fiona Gray B.A. Arts (Arch.); B. ARCH. (Deakin). Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Deakin University Submitted for examination January, 2014. Acknowledgements There are many people to whom I am greatly indebted for the support they have given me throughout this thesis. First among them are my supervisors. Without the encouragement I received from Dr. Mirjana Lozanovska I may never have embarked upon this journey. Her candour and insightful criticism have been immensely valuable and her intelligent engagement with the world of architecture has been a source of inspiration. Associate Professor Ursula de Jong has also made a very substantial contribution. Her astute reading and generous feedback have helped bring clarity and discipline to my thinking and writing. She has been a passionate advocate of my work and a wonderful mentor. Special thanks also to Professor Des Smith, Professor Judith Trimble and Guenter Lehmann for their ongoing interest in my work and the erudition and wisdom they graciously imparted at various stages along the way. My research has also been greatly assisted by a number of people at Deakin University. Thank you to the friendly and helpful library staff, especially those who went to great lengths to source obscure texts tucked away in libraries in all corners of the world. Thanks also to the Research Services Division, particularly Professor Roger Horn for the informative research seminars and much needed writing retreats he facilitated. My ambition to undertake this PhD was made possible by the financial support I received from a Deakin University Science and Technology scholarship.

  • Modern Domestic Architcture in and Around Ithaca, Ny: the “Fallingwaters” of Raymond Viner Hall
    MODERN DOMESTIC ARCHITCTURE IN AND AROUND ITHACA, NY: THE “FALLINGWATERS” OF RAYMOND VINER HALL A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Mahyar Hadighi January 2014 © 2014 Mahyar Hadighi ABSTRACT This research examines the role of Modern architecture in shaping the American dream through the work of a particular architect, Raymond Viner Hall, a Frank Lloyd Wright follower, in Ithaca, NY. Modernists’ ideas and Modern architecture played significant roles in the twentieth century post-depression urban history. Although the historic part of historic preservation does not commonly refer to twentieth century architecture, mid-century Modern architecture is an important part of the history and its preservation is important. Many of these mid-century Modern examples have already been destroyed, mainly because of lack of documentation, lack of general public knowledge, and lack of activity of advocacy groups and preservationists. Attention to the recent past history of Ithaca, New York, which is home of Cornell University and the region this research survey focuses on, is similarly not at the level it should be. Thus, in an attempt to begin to remedy this oversight, and in the capacity of a historic preservation-planning student at Cornell (with a background in architecture), a survey documenting the Modern architecture of the area was conducted. In the process of studying the significant recent history of Ithaca, a very interesting local adaptation of Wrightian architecture was discovered: the projects of Raymond Viner Hall (1908-1981), a semi-local Pennsylvanian architect, who was a Frank Lloyd Wright follower and son of the chief builder of Fallingwater.
