    Rare world children Black dolls and their history By: Jolie van der Klis Antique black dolls are rare — I actually wanted to write this line last year, to tell the history of the dolls that we may remember from childhood. At the time, I waived it: I didn't want to throw any fuel on any discussion.*) Meanwhile, even much more has happened on the world stage, the brutal murder of George Floyd, one of the many victims of police prejudice. I could of course postpone the article again, but, as I wondered down-hearted: how many years will I postpone it? *) Note: This refers to an awkward debate in The Netherlands, about the altered tradition of the Dutch Santaclaus and his companion, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwarte_Piet Exhibition in Paris It has been two years since Deborah Neff exhibited her unique collection of antique black dolls in Paris. Handmade from fabric and leather, flour sacks and buttons, by unknown Americans with an African background. These dolls were intended as play dolls: they can sometimes be seen in old family photos. Some are already 180 years old. Photo: press release exhibition at La Maison Rouge, Deborah Neff dolls Caricatures Manufacturers who made black dolls hardly existed at the time; if they were made, the dolls were gross caricatures. Like this doll, that has all the features of a tap dancer from the humiliating Minstrel shows. Photo: Detail undated wooden caricature Doll maker Leo Moss An exception to that rule is doll maker Leo Moss. In the early 1900s he made unique portrait dolls, all modeled after an existing child, the name of which has sometimes been preserved.

  • CEA LIST's Participation at the CLEF Chic 2013
    CEA LIST's participation at the CLEF CHiC 2013 Adrian Popescu CEA, LIST, Vision & Content Engineering Laboratory, Gif sur Ivette, France [email protected] Abstract. For our first participation to the CLEF CHiC Lab, we submitted runs to the mul- tilingual ad-hoc and multilingual semantic enrichment tasks. Given the strong mul- tilingual character of the evaluation corpus, the main objectives of the experiments were to test the efficiency of semantic topic expansion and consolidation based on Explicit Semantic Analysis (ESA) versions in different languages. Another objective was multilingual fusion of results obtained in the different languages of the corpus. ESA was adapted for the 10 languages that are best represented in the Europeana corpus. Wikipedia dumps from March 2012 were used for French and English and from March 2013 for the other languages. One problem that arises when model- ing short documents, such as queries, with classical ESA vectors no information is available whether the concept is related to the entire topic only to a part of it. To overcome this problem, two adaptations of ESA (ESA-C) are Wikipedia concepts that are linked to the highest number of concepts from the original topic. In the ad-hoc task, ESA and ESA-C have two roles: to expand the topic with related con- cepts and to create consolidated topic models which contain the original topic words along with other related keywords. We submitted both monolingual and multilingual runs without topic expansion and using topic expansion and consolidation with clas- sical ESA and ESA-C. The best results are obtained in a multilingual setting with no expansion and ESA-C topic consolidation.

ROTHER ABSTRACT Like Britain and continental Europe, the United States would utilize the poster to garner both funding and public support during World War I. While war has historically been considered a masculine endeavor, a relatively large number of these posters depict the female form. Although the use of women in American World War I visual propaganda may not initially seem problematic, upon further inspection it becomes clear that her presence often served to promote racial and national pretentiousness. Based on the works of popular pre-war illustrators like Howard Chandler Christy and Charles Dana Gibson, the American woman was the most attractive woman in the in the world. Her outstanding wit, beauty and intelligence made her the only suitable mate for the supposed racially superior American man. With the onset of war, however, the once entertaining romantic scenarios in popular monthlies and weeklies now represented what America stood to lose, and the “American Girl” would make the transition from magazine illustrations to war poster with minimal alterations.

  • Dolls and Waste in Italian Children's Literature
    Treasure to Trash, Trash to Treasure: Dolls and Waste in Italian Children’s Literature Cristina Mazzoni A growing preoccupation with waste, trash, and obsolescence may be observed in Western societies beginning in the late nineteenth century and continuing throughout the twentieth and into the twenty-first. This phenomenon is largely due to the rapid and intense development of industrialization and consumer culture—the very movement that eventually prompted the birth, in late nineteenth-century Italy, of the industrial production of dolls.1 A reflection of this historical and societal correlation between dolls and trash, confirmed by connections that are also psychological and philosophical, may be read in several literary texts for children written by Italian women between the late nineteenth and the late twentieth centuries. In each of these narratives, the young protagonists own dolls that, though often on the verge of being dumped into the trash bin, play a crucial role in the formation of the protagonist’s identity—a process represented as shaped by both psychological and material forces. The connection made by women between dolls and trash in Italian children’s literature may be read as a culturally specific instance of the wider-ranging reflection on the role of trash in the formation of value, and even of the self.2 Certainly, psychological models of child development have much to teach us about the role dolls play in the formation of young people’s identity.3 While keeping these models in mind, my reading of dolls in Italian children’s litera- ture, however, relies more overtly on philosophical and social reflections on trash, such as those by Italo Calvino, Gay Hawkins, Greg Kennedy, and John Scanlan.

    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 099 543 CE 002 628 AUTHOR Berger, Betty M. TITLE Doll Collecting; A Course Designed for the Adult Education Student. PUB DATE Jul 74 NOTE 145p.; Ed.D. Dissertation, Walden University EDRS PRICE MF-$0.75 HC-$6.60 PLUS POSTAGE DESCRIPTORS *Adult Education; *Course Content; Course Descriptions; *Doctoral Theses; Teacher Developed Materials; *Teaching Techniques IDENTIFIERS *Doll Collecting ABSTRACT The author has attempted to organize the many materials to be found on doll collecting into a course which will provide a foundation of know]edge for appreciating and evaluating old dolls. The course has been divided into sessions in which old dolls will be studied by type (images, idols, and early playthings; child, doll, and social realities; wooden dolls; wax dolls; papier mache and composition; china and parian; bisque dolls, cloth dolls; celluloid, metal, leather, and rubber dolls; and doll art in America) in basically the same chronological order in which they achieved popularity in the marketplace (1800-1925). The instructor is urged to employ a variety of teaching strategies in the presentation of the material. A mixture of lecture, slides, show and tell, and much student participation is encouraged. Handouts are provided whichcan be given to students at the end of each session. Brief annotated bibliographies appear at the end of each chapter,as well as a selected bibliography at the end of the course. Thecourse has been designed to introduce the beginning doll collector to the techniques employed in the manufacture of old dolls, to help the novice identify a doll of excellent artistic merit, and to acquaint the collector with some of the better known names in doll making.

    Anais do VII Seminário Fazendo Gênero 28, 29 e 30 de 2006 Sobre gênero e preconceitos: Estudos em análise crítica do discurso – ST 02 Danielle Barbosa Lins de Almeida - UFSC/UFPB Viviane M. Heberle - UFSC As Bonecas da Contemporaneidade: Representações Midiáticas da Identidade Feminina O objetivo desse artigo é propor uma reflexão acerca dos brinquedos enquanto representações semióticas de ‘atores sociais de gênero’ (Caldas Coulthard & van Leeuwen, 2002), a partir da discussão sobre os papéis que bonecas contemporâneas de moda como Barbie, Susi e The Bratz evocam, a fim de examinar como a identidade feminina vem sendo representada pela mídia de dois países distintos – Brasil e Estados Unidos – através de típicas expressões do universo infantil. A análise inclui desvendar alguns dos valores que são incorporados às referidas representações bem como investigar o potencial de negociação da criança no sentido de desafiar as estruturas de significado que subjazem as identidades das chamadas ‘bonecas da contemporaneidade’. Palavras-Chave: bonecas, papéis, identidade. 1. Introdução Em suas inúmeras versões pelo mundo afora, as bonecas são mais comumente conhecidas por seu papel como objetos tridimensionais pertencentes ao universo infantil. Como símbolo inconfundível da infância, o mundo das bonecas não tem sido suficientemente explorado em pesquisas acadêmicas, visto que há relativamente poucos estudos que enfatizam a função das bonecas como fonte de conhecimento social, histórico e cultural (Peers, 2004). Historicamente, em sociedades como o Egito e a Melanésia, às bonecas eram atribuídas uma função mística, sendo então vistas como forma de se espantar maus espíritos e enfermidades, de se conferir proteção e de se prover acesso direto às dimensões espirituais da vida (Fraser, apud Kline, 1993, p.
