General Business Meeting Of - GENERAL BUSINESS MEETING OF AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR AESTHETICS Fogg Art Museum, Harvard University 3:50 P.M. September 3, 1948 1. The meeting was called to order by Katharine Gilbert, president. Mrs. Gilbert reported on the Society's application for membership in the ACLS. (See Board meeting) 2. The Secretary-Treasurer read the minutes of the 1947 Annual Meeting of members and presented the financial report of the Society and JOURNAL. Both were accepted by the members. 3. Mrs. Gilbert announced to the members the grant of $500 each year for three years made to the Society by the Bollingen Foundation. Grant was secured by Huntington Cairns. Dr. Munro made a motion that Mrs. Gilbert express the appreciation of the Society to Mr. Cairns. Motion carried. 4. Isabel Hungerland moved that the Sec-Treas write a letter of thanks to the President of Harvard University for the hospitality shown to the Society during its current meetings. Mrs. Hungerland read a resolution to that effect. Motion was made and carried. (See Sec-Treas book for copy) 5. At the Annual Banquet, Dr. Munro explained the activities of the Arts and Letters section of UNESCO and made a motion that the Society go on record as approving this work and stating to the Director General of UNESCO that the !SA stands ready to back this activity. A letter, drafted by Dr. Munro, was read and approved by the Society members present. On September 9, 1948, Mrs. Gilbert sent this letter to the Director General. 6. Mrs. Gilbert opened the meeting for a discussion of the current meeting's program and asked for expressions of opinions from the members. In general, the discussion centered around, (1) longer papers and fewer, (2) possibility of having panel-discussions rather than prepared papers, (3) the arrangements of Sessions from papers of specific fields to general fields of interest, (4) preparing abstracts of each p<per to be given to all members at the opening of the Annual Meeting. After dis­ cussion, it was decided that the Sessions be continued with perhaps fewer papers on each Session, and that the president appoint a program committee, according to the Constitution, to be guided by the wishes of the members for the 1949 Annual Meeting. RECORD BOOK, PAGE CORRECT SEORETARY -- 7. Dr. wolfgang Stechow invited the Society to meet at Oberlin College on October 22, 23, 24, 1949 for its Annual Meeting. The invitation was accepted. The meeting date has been changed from September to October, since no September date has met with the unanimous approval of the membership. 8. The Secretary outlined the objectives far the following year which con­ sisted mainly of continuing the method of securing new members (see Board Meeting notes), and a renewed effort to secure more Contributing Institutional memberships. 9. w~s. Gilbert announced the results of the nominating committee's suggestions for president, Vice-President and four new Board members and asked for further nominations. There were no further nominations and Mrs. Gilbert instructed the Secretary to mail ballots to all members as provided in the Constitution. 10. Meeting was adjourned. RECORD BOOK.

Bodies of Knowledge: The Presentation of Personified Figures in Engraved Allegorical Series Produced in the Netherlands, 1548-1600 Abstract During the second half of the sixteenth century, engraved series of allegorical subjects featuring personified figures flourished for several decades in the Low Countries before falling into disfavor. Designed by the Netherlandsâ?? leading artists and cut by professional engravers, such series were collected primarily by the urban intelligentsia, who appreciated the use of personification for the representation of immaterial concepts and for the transmission of knowledge, both in prints and in public spectacles. The pairing of embodied forms and serial format was particularly well suited to the portrayal of abstract themes with multiple components, such as the Four Elements, Four Seasons, Seven Planets, Five Senses, or Seven Virtues and Seven Vices. While many of the themes had existed prior to their adoption in Netherlandish graphics, their pictorial rendering had rarely been so pervasive or systematic.

  • Carnegie Institution, Has Selected the Articles in This Book
    (Continued from front flap) This work has been described in many hundreds of scientific papers, ar- ticles, addresses and books: the scientist's way of communicating his findings. By the very nature of the undertaking, the ma- jority of these have been predominantly technical: addressed to the writer's col- leagues in his special field of research. But some have been clothed in language of such clarity and literary quality as to at- tract the interest of far wider audiences. From this group, Dr. Caryl Haskins, president of the Carnegie Institution, has selected the articles in this book. They cover a broad spectrum of science, from viruses to galaxies; from life's beginning to exploration of the cosmos. Included are contributions from many outstanding names in science. There is an introduction by Dr. Haskins. The Carnegie Institution, which has its headquarters in Washington, D. C, currently operates six research centers, each with its own laboratories and staff. They are the Mount Wilson and Palomar Observatories (operated jointly with the California Institute of Technology) in Pasadena, California; the Department of Terrestrial Magnetism and the Geophysi- cal Laboratory, both in Washington, D. C; the Department of Embryology, at the Johns Hopkins University in Balti- more, Maryland; the Department of Plant Biology, at Stanford University, Stanford, California; and the Genetics Research Unit, Cold Spring Harbor, New York.

  • Bloomfield, the Poetry of Interpretation
    The Poetry of Interpretation: Exegetical Lyric after the English Reformation Gabriel Bloomfield Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2019 © 2019 Gabriel Bloomfield All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Poetry of Interpretation: Exegetical Lyric after the English Reformation Gabriel Bloomfield “The Poetry of Interpretation” writes a pre-history of the twentieth-century phenomenon of close reading by interpreting the devotional poetry of the English Renaissance in the context of the period’s exegetical literatures. The chapters explore a range of hermeneutic methods that allowed preachers and commentators, writing in the wake of the Reformation’s turn to the “literal sense” of scripture, to grapple with and clarify the bible’s “darke texts.” I argue that early modern religious poets—principally Anne Lock, John Donne, George Herbert, William Alabaster, and John Milton—absorbed these same methods into their compositional practices, merging the arts of poesis and exegesis. Consistently skeptical about the very project they undertake, however, these poets became not just practitioners but theorists of interpretive method. Situated at the intersection of religious history, hermeneutics, and poetics, this study develops a new understanding of lyric’s formal operations while intimating an alternative history of the discipline of literary criticism.

Wayland Sanctifying a Darke Conceit: Seeing the Bible in The Faerie Queene Abstract Approaching the poem from the perspective of reception history, the present dissertation seeks to show that the Bible’s role in The Faerie Queene is far more pervasive than has usually been recog- nized. Rather than see the biblical material as the domain of only certain sections—notably, Book I and perhaps Books II and V—I propose that it is to be seen as a meaningful presence throughout the poem. Indeed, I will argue that it provides a previously unnoticed, unifying structure to the whole.
