Participants registering for the pre- and post-symposium tours will have the opportunity to explore the larger region, from Newburyport to Marblehead.

Remodeled by the Phillips family shortly after purchasing the house in 1911, the dwelling combines a Federal exterior with a Colonial Revival interior.

    2012 Annual Report of the National Endowment for the Humanities

    EXPLORING THE HUMAN ENDEAVOR NATIONAL ENDOWMENT FOR THE HUMANITIES 2ANNU0AL1 REP2ORT CHAIRMAN’S LETTER August 2013 Dear Mr. President, It is my privilege to present the 2012 Annual Report of the National Endowment for the Humanities. For forty-seven years, NEH has striven to support excellence in humanities research, education, preservation, access to humanities collections, long-term planning for educational and cultural institutions, and humanities programming for the public. NEH’s 1965 founding legislation states that “democracy demands wisdom and vision in its citizens.” Understanding our nation’s past as well as the histories and cultures of other peoples across the globe is crucial to understanding ourselves and how we fit in the world. On September 17, 2012, U.S. Representative John Lewis spoke on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial about freedom and America’s civil rights struggle, to mark the 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s preliminary Emancipation Proclamation. He was joined on stage by actors Alfre Woodward and Tyree Young, and Howard University’s Afro Blue jazz vocal ensemble. The program was the culmination of NEH’s “Celebrating Freedom,” a day that brought together five leading Civil War scholars and several hundred college and high school students for a discussion of events leading up to the Proclamation. The program was produced in partnership with Howard University and was live-streamed from the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History to more than one hundred “watch parties” of viewers around the nation. Also in 2012, NEH initiated the Muslim Journeys Bookshelf—a collection of twenty-five books, three documentary films, and additional resources to help American citizens better understand the people, places, history, varieties of faith, and cultures of Muslims in the United States and around the world.
  • Decorative Arts’

    Decorative Arts’

    Beyond terminology, or, the limits of ‘decorative arts’ Deborah L. Krohn George Kubler invites the reader to imagine a unified approach to the study of things in the first lines of his classic The Shape of Time, published in 1962: ‘Let us suppose that the idea of art can be expanded to embrace the whole range of man- made things, including all tools and writing in addition to the useless, beautiful, and poetic things of the world.’1 Following Kubler’s suggestion, supposing, in this case, that all ‘man-made things’ fall under the category of art, then the distinction implied by the question, ‘What is the role of the decorative arts within art historical discourse?’ loses much of its force. I’d like to tweak this question, posed here by Christina Anderson and Catherine Futter, to read something like ‘Do the various perspectives on cultural artefacts generated within material culture studies make the historical distinction between decorative arts and fine arts obsolete or redundant?’2 I will look first at the history of the term ‘decorative arts’ and what it has come to mean as a field of academic study as well as a collecting area. I will then reflect on an exhibition that I co-organized at the Bard Graduate Center Gallery in 2013 as a case study in both the utility and limitations of the category of decorative arts in the current intellectual climate. At the heart of this discussion is a firm conviction that the exploration of the forms of cultural production that populate our environment must not be fragmented by arbitrary and ill-defined categories.

    Asher Benjamin As an Architect in Windsor, Vermont

    Summer 1974 VOL. 42 NO.3 The GpROCEEDINGS of the VERMONT HISTORICAL SOCIETY This famous architect built a meetinghouse and three private houses in Windsor before he left for Boston in 1802 ... Asher Benjamin as an Architect in Windsor, Vennont By JOHN QUINAN N August of 1802 the architect Asher Benjamin wrote from Boston to I Gideon Granger, the Postmaster General of the United States, seeking aid in obtaining a commission for a marine hospital in that city. Benjamin's letter identifies by name and location most of his first eight commissions - a rare and unusual document in American architectural history which enables us to trace his path northward from Hartford, Con­ necticut, to Windsor, Vermont. Benjamin wrote, in part: "Sir, I have since I left Suffield Conn. built the following houses, Viz. Samuel Hinckley, Northampton, William Coleman's Greenfield, Luke Baldwin's Esq., Brookfield, and a Meeting House and three other large houses in Windsor, Vermont, The Academy at Deerfield. l Most of these commissions have not fared very well. The Deerfield Academy building (Memorial Hall, 1798-1799) was altered sufficiently during the nineteenth century to obscure much of its original character. The Baldwin and Hinckley houses (both c.17%) were demolished early in the twentieth century and are lost to us, and it seems that the William Coleman house in Greenfield (1797) (Fig. 6) is the sole survivor of Benjamin's first decade of practice. But what of the four unnamed build­ ings in Windsor? Are they identifiable? Do they still stand in Windsor? Have they any special interest or significance? The four Windsor buildings are identifiable despite the fact that the three houses have been demolished and the meetinghouse has been altered I.
