A Play in One Act Eugene ONeill

Introduction by Edward Albee

Exorcism

A thrilling archival discovery and literary eventthe publication, after ninety years, of a sharply autobiographical one-act play by the father of modern American theater
Shortly after the debut of Exorcism in 1920, Eugene ONeill suddenly canceled production and ordered all extant copies of the drama destroyed. For over ninety years, it was believed that the play was irrevocably lost, until a researcher made a stunning find: the typescript, complete with ONeills handwritten edits, had been retained by ONeills second wife, Agnes, and sent to the writer Philip Yourdan as a gift. The discovery and publication of Exorcism, a relatively early play in the ONeill corpus, furthers our knowledge of ONeills dramatic development and reveals a pivotal point in the career of this great American playwright. Revolving around a suicide attempt, Exorcism draws on a dark incident in ONeills own life. This defining event led to his first serious attempts to write. Exorcism displays early examples of ONeills unparalleled skills of capturing deeply personal human drama, and it explores major themesmourning and melancholia, addiction and sobriety, tensions between fathers and sonsthat would permeate his later work. According to Yale Universitys Beinecke Rare Book and Manuscript Library curator Louise Bernard, who acquired the play from a New York bookseller, Exorcism might be read as a preparatory sketch that resonates powerfully with Long Days Journey into Night, one that brings the ONeill family drama full circle in ways at once intimate and grandly conceived.
EUGENE ONEILL (18881953), considered by many to be Americas greatest playwright, was a four-time recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1936.

A Portrait in Black and White Emily Bernard

Carl Van Vechten and the Harlem Renaissance

A groundbreaking inquiry into the life of the audacious Carl Van Vechten, and his singular and singularly controversial contributions to the Harlem Renaissance
Carl Van Vechten was a white man with a passion for blackness who played a crucial role in helping the Harlem Renaissance, a black movement, come to understand itself. Carl Van Vechten and the Harlem Renaissance is grounded in the dramas occasioned by the Harlem Renaissance, as it is called today, or New Negro Renaissance, as it was called in the 1920s, when it first came into being. Emily Bernard focuses on writingthe black and white of thingsthe articles, fiction, essays, and letters that Carl Van Vechten wrote to black people and about black culture, and the writing of the black people who wrote to and about him. Above all, she is interested in the interpersonal exchanges that inspired the writing, which are ultimately far more significant than the public records would suggest. Emily Bernard moves to the front of This book is a partial biography of a once controversial the line of scholars who have re-cast the figure.

The Achievement of Fame, 14751534 Michael Hirst

From the leading authority on Michelangelo, a major new biography of the artist many consider the most influential in history
This remarkable book is the first of two volumes in what will be the definitive modern biography of Michelangelo. An illuminating study of Michelangelos extraordinary career, it follows the artist from his apprenticeship in Ghirlandaios workshop to his final move to Rome in 1534, when, at the age of 59, he left behind his native Florence, never to return. During these years he created such outstanding works as the marble Piet, the giant marble David, commissioned for the cathedral in Florence, the Sistine Ceiling frescoes, and the new sacristy and library for the Medici family at San Lorenzo. He began the monumental tomb for Pope Julius II in Rome, and he became one of the most sought-after artists of the early sixteenth century. Written by the leading Michelangelo scholar, this prodigiously informative account benefits from recent archival discoveries and restorations, and is enriched by material from the long-awaited editions of the artists correspondence and artistic contracts. The wealth of new information enables new light to be shed on the genesis of Michelangelos works in sculpture, painting, and architecture, and on his complex psychological relations with his family, friends, and powerful patrons.

Q: Why this book?

A: In Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran, and the United States, I showed how the absence of serious diplomacy had brought the U.S., Israel, and Iran to the brink of war. With Obama, an attempt at diplomacy was madebut it failed. The new book looks at what actually happened in that diplomacy and why it fell short. The answer will surprise a lot of people.

Q: What is the most pressing issue the U.S. faces with Iran?
A: The headlines tend to be about the nuclear issue, but that is the symptom rather than the root of the problem. The real problem is the dysfunctional relationship between the U.S. and Iranand the fact that it is playing out in a volatile region that wont achieve stability until Washington and Tehran find a way to get along.

A conversation with Trita Parsi

Sasan Afsoosi

Q: How did you conduct the research for your book?

A: The topic is very current, so I relied primarily on classified government documents and interviews with top officials from every state involved in Obamas outreach to Iranfrom Israel to Saudi Arabia, the E.U., Russia, Turkey, Brazil, and, of course, the U.S. and Iran.

Q: How can Obama succeed with Iran?

A: It all comes down to political will and maneuverabilityboth in Tehran and in Washington. It is only when we fully realize the cost of failure that we will muster the will and patience to overcome the obstacles on the road to peace.

A History of Fiction in 294 Lives John Sutherland

In the spirit of Dr. Johnsons Lives of the Poets, acclaimed critic and scholar John Sutherland tours the history of fiction in English
No previous author has attempted a book such as this: a complete history of novels written in the English language, from the genres seventeenth-century origins to the present day. In the spirit of Dr. Johnsons Lives of the Poets, acclaimed critic and scholar John Sutherland selects 294 writers whose works illustrate the best of every kind of fictionfrom gothic, penny dreadful, and pornography to fantasy, romance, and high literature. Each author was chosen, Professor Sutherland explains, because his or her books are well worth reading and are likely to remain so for at least another century. Sutherland presents these authors in chronological order, in each case deftly combining a lively and informative biographical sketch with an opinionated assessment of the writers work. Taken together, these novelists provide both a history of the novel and a guide to its rich variety. Always entertaining, and sometimes shocking, Sutherland considers writers as diverse as Daniel Defoe, Henry James, James Joyce, Edgar Allan Poe, Virginia Woolf, Michael Crichton, Jeffrey Archer, and Jacqueline Susann. Written for all lovers of fiction, Lives of the Novelists succeeds both as introduction and re-introduction, as Sutherland presents favorite and familiar novelists in new ways and transforms the less favored and less familiar through his relentlessly fascinating readings.

The Crisis in the Profession and the Way Back Jerome Kagan
A leading psychologist takes a hard look at his profession today and argues for important changes in practices and attitudes
This book is the product of years of thought and a profound concern for the state of contemporary psychology. Jerome Kagan, a theorist and leading researcher, examines popular practices and assumptions held by many psychologists. He uncovers a variety of problems that, troublingly, are largely ignored by investigators and clinicians. Yet solutions are available, Kagan maintains, and his reasoned suggestions point the way to a better understanding of the mind and mental illness. Kagan identifies four problems in contemporary psychology: the indifference to the setting in which observations are gathered, including the age, class, and cultural background of participants and the procedure that provides the evidence (he questions, for example, the assumption that similar verbal reports of well-being reflect similar psychological states); the habit of basing inferences on single measures rather than patterns of measures (even though every action, reply, or biological response can result from more than one set of conditions); the defining of mental illnesses by symptoms independent of their origin; and the treatment of mental disorders with drugs and forms of psychotherapy that are nonspecific to the diagnosed illness. The authors candid discussion will inspire the debate that is needed in a discipline seeking to fulfill its promises.

What evolutionary process could have resulted in the unique and amazing human brain? New research by neuroscientists, paleontologists, and others reveals startling answers.
After several million years of jostling for ecological space, only one survivor from a host of hominid species remains standing: us. Human beings are extraordinary creatures, and it is the unprecedented human brain that makes them so. In this delightfully accessible book, the authors present the first full, step-by-step account of the evolution of the brain and nervous system. Tapping the very latest findings in evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and molecular biology, Rob DeSalle and Ian Tattersall explain how the cognitive gulf that separates us from all other living creatures could have occurred. They discuss the development and uniqueness of human consciousness, how human and nonhuman brains work, the roles of different nerve cells, the importance of memory and language in brain functions, and much more. Our brains, they conclude, are the product of a lengthy and supremely untidy historyan evolutionary process of many zigs and zagsthat has accidentally resulted in a splendidly eccentric and creative product.

 Open to new ideas from far-flung sources, Thomas Jefferson incorporated gardening traditions from England, France, Spain and the Mediterranean, West Africa, and Creole culture. With boundless enthusiasm, Jefferson sought seeds and distributed them. He received them from the Lewis and Clark expedition, from neighbors and friends across America, and from an international community of plantsmen. Jefferson experimented with over 330 varieties and some 99 species of vegetables. With some of his neighbors, Jefferson enjoyed a tradition of competing to raise spring peas; whoever harvested the first spring pea hosted a community dinner that included a feast on the winning pea crop. Unique among Virginia gardeners of his day, Jefferson introduced a roster of unfamiliar species now taken for granted, including tomatoes, okra, eggplant, lima beans, peanuts, and peppers. Anticipating healthy living advice that would be extolled two centuries later, Jefferson wrote, I have lived temperately, eating little animal food, and that . . . as a condiment for the vegetables which constitute my principal diet. Jefferson documented nearly six decades of horticultural triumphs and failures in his Garden Book, a diary he maintained from 1766 to 1824. This rich record made possible the most accurate early American garden restoration ever undertaken.

Hatch guides us from the asparagus and artichokes first planted in 1770 through the horticultural experiments of Jeffersons retirement years (18091826). The author explores topics ranging from labor in the garden, garden pests of the time, and seed saving practices to contemporary African American gardens. He also discusses Jeffersons favorite vegetables and the hundreds of varieties he grew, the half-Virginian half-French cuisine he developed, and the gardening traditions he adapted from many other countries.

An important new history of the relentless growth of South Asias jihadist violence, and a careful analysis of how it can be countered
This hard-hitting and timely book explores the roots of militant Islam in South Asia and how it has grown to become a source of profound global alarm. By meticulously tracking the rise of the jihadist movement from its initial violence in Afghanistan in 1980 to the present day, Dilip Hiro challenges conventional narratives of the roles of Afghanistan, Pakistan, the Soviet Union, the United States, and India. He warns that the Line of Control in Kashmir, where jihadists seek to incite war between nuclear-armed Pakistan and India, is today the most dangerous border in the world. Drawing on evidence from a wide variety of sources including newly released Kremlin archives and classified U.S. Embassy documents published by WikiLeaks, the author compiles the first complete and accurate history of Islamist terrorism in South Asia. He chronicles historic links between Pakistan, Afghanistan, and India and their varying degrees of destabilization at the hands of the jihadists. He also sheds unprecedented light on the close military and intelligence links that have developed between India and Israel. Finally, he outlines the ambitions of Pakistani, Afghan, and Al Qaeda jihadists to establish an apocalyptic realm covering South, Central, and Western Asia. Compact, comprehensive, and fast paced, this book lays bare the causes of todays escalating terrorist threat, sets the historical record straight, and offers fresh strategies for defeating jihadist extremism.

Shelly Kagan

There is one thing we can be sure of: we are all going to die. But once we accept that fact, the questions begin. In this thought-provoking book, philosophy professor Shelly Kagan examines the myriad questions that arise when we confront the meaning of mortality. Do we have reason to believe in the existence of immortal souls? Should we accept an account according to which people are just material objects, nothing more? Can we make sense of the idea of surviving the death of ones body? If I wont exist after I die, can death truly be bad for me? Would immortality be desirable? Is fear of death appropriate? Is suicide ever justified? How should I live in the face of death? Written in an informal and conversational style, this stimulating and provocative book challenges many widely held views about death, as it invites the reader to take a fresh look at one of the central features of the human conditionthe fact that we will die.

An essential book for the 21st-century citizen who seeks a lively guided tour of the ancient Greek Olympics
What was it like to attend the Olympics in 388 b.c.? Would the experience resemble Olympic festivals as we celebrate them today? This remarkable book transports us back to the heyday of the city-state and classical Greek civilization. It invites us to enter this distant, alien, but still familiar culture and discover what the Greeks did and didnt do during five thrilling days in August 2,400 years ago. In the Olympic Stadium there were no stands, no shadeand no women allowed. Visitors sat on a grassy bank in the searing heat of midsummer to watch naked athletes compete in footraces, the pentathlon, horse and chariot races, and three combat sportswrestling, boxing, and pankration, everyones favorite competition, with virtually no rules and considerable blood and pain. This colorfully illustrated volume offers a complete tour of the Olympic site exactly as athletes and spectators found it.

The Event of Literature

Terry Eagleton
A renowned literary theorist reconsiders previous stances and offers his latest thinking on the nature of literature and literary study
In this characteristically concise, witty, and lucid book, Terry Eagleton turns his attention to the questions we should ask about literature, but rarely do. What is literature? Can we even speak of literature at all? What do different literary theories tell us about what texts mean and do? In throwing new light on these and other questions he has raised in previous best-sellers, Eagleton offers a new theory of what we mean by literature. He also shows what it is that a great many different literary theories have in common. In a highly unusual combination of critical theory and analytic philosophy, the author sees all literary work, from novels to poems, as a strategy to contain a reality that seeks to thwart that containment, and in doing so throws up new problems that the work tries to resolve. The event of literature, Eagleton argues, consists in this continual transformative encounter, unique and endlessly repeatable. Freewheeling through centuries of critical ideas, he sheds light on the place of literature in our culture, and in doing so reaffirms the value and validity of literary thought today.
TERRY EAGLETON is Distinguished Professor of English Literature, University of Lancaster, UK. He is the author of more than 40 books, spanning the fields of literary theory, postmodernism, politics, ideology, and religion, including the seminal Literary Theory: An Introduction.

The Battle for the Arab Spring

Lin Noueihed and Alex Warren

Revolution, Counter-Revolution and the Making of a New Era

The story of the revolutionary zeal that swept the Arab nations in 2011 and an assessment of what the uprisings have achieved to date
Sparked by the protest of a single vegetable seller in Tunisia, the flame of revolutionary passion swept across the Arab world in what has come to be called the Arab Spring of 2011. Millions took to the streets in revolt: the governments of Tunisia, Egypt, and Libya fell, other regimes remain embattled, and no corner of the region has escaped unchanged. In this informed and accessible book, Lin Noueihed and Alex Warren explain the economic and political roots of the Arab Spring, assess what has been accomplished so far, and consider the many stumbling blocks that confront the Arab nations as they try to shape their futures. Through research, interviews, and a wealth of firsthand experience, the authors explain the unique set of obstacles that endanger stability in each country. They analyze the challenges many Arab nations face in building democratic institutions, finding consensus on political Islam, overcoming tribal divides, and satisfying an insatiable demand for jobs. In an era of change and uncertainty, this insightful guide provides the first clear glimpse of the post-revolutionary future the Arab Spring set in motion.

The Value of Species

Edward L. McCord
We humans value a great variety of plant and animal species for their usefulness to us. But what is the valueif anyof a species that offers no practical use?
In the face of accelerating extinctions across the globe, what ought we to do? Amid this sea of losses, what is our responsibility? How do we assess the value of nonhuman species? In this clear-spoken, passionate book, naturalist and philosopher Edward L. McCord explores urgent questions about the destruction of species and provides a new framework for appreciating and defending every form of life. The book draws insights from philosophy, ethics, law, and biology to arrive at a new way of thinking about the value of each species on earth. With meticulous reasoning, McCord demonstrates that the inherent value of species to humanity is intellectual: individual species are phenomena of such intellectual momentso interThis pithy little book fills an important esting in their own rightthat they rise above other niche in motivating further discourse values and merit enduring human embrace.

Eduardo Corral
Announcing the newest winner of the oldest annual literary prize in the United States
Eduardo C. Corral is the 2011 recipient of the Yale Series of Younger Poets award, joining such distinguished previous winners as Adrienne Rich, W. S. Merwin, and John Ashbery. Corral is the first Latino poet to win the competition. Seamlessly braiding English and Spanish, Corrals poems hurtle across literary and linguistic borders toward a lyricism that slows down experience. He employs a range of forms and phrasing, bringing the vivid particulars of his experiences as a Chicano and gay man to the page. Although Corrals topics are decidedly sobering, contest judge Carl Phillips observes, one of the more surprising possibilities offered in these poems is joy. From Self-Portrait with Tumbling and Lasso Im a cowboy riding bareback My soul is whirling above my head like a lasso. My right hand a pistol. My left automatic. Im knocking on every door. Im coming on strong . . .
EDUARDO C. CORRALs poems have appeared in Beloit Poetry Journal, New England Review, Ploughshares, and Poetry, as well as other journals and anthologies. He received a Discovery/The Nation award and was selected for residencies at the MacDowell Colony and Yaddo. He lives in southern Arizona. CARL PHILLIPS is the award-winning author of eleven books of poetry, including Speak Low, which was a National Book Award finalist. He teaches at Washington University in St. Louis. This is his first year as judge of the Yale Series of Younger Poets.

Portnoys Complaint and Our Doomed Pursuit of Happiness Bernard Avishai

A spirited biography of Philip Roths notorious novel, from the outrage it sparked to its impact on Roth to its legacy some forty years later
The publication of Portnoys Complaint in 1969 provoked instant, powerful reactions. It blasted Philip Roth into international fame, subjected him to unrelenting personal scrutiny and conjecture, and shocked legions of readerssome delighted, others appalled. Portnoy and other main characters became instant archetypes, and Roth himself became a touchstone for conflicting attitudes toward sexual liberation, Jewish power, political correctness, Freudian language, and bourgeois disgust. What about this book inspired Richard Lacayo of Time to describe it as a literary instance of shock and awe, and the Modern Library to list it among the 100 best English-language novels of the twentieth century? Bernard Avishai offers a witty exploration of Roths satiric masterpiece, based on the prolific novelists own writings, teaching notes, and personal interviews. In addition to discussing the books timing, rhetorical gambit, and sheer virtuousity, Avishai includes a chapter on the Jewish communitys outrage over the book and how Roth survived it, and another on the authors scorching treatment of psychoanalysis. Avishai shows that Roths irreverent novel left us questioning who, or what, was the object of the satire. Hilariously, it proved the serious ways we construct fictions about ourselves and others.
BERNARD AVISHAI is adjunct professor of business at Hebrew University and author of three books, most recently, The Hebrew Republic, and dozens of articles for The New Yorker, The New York Review of Books, Harpers, Harvard Business Review, and other publications. He divides his time between Jerusalem and Wilmot, NH.

Tolea, an eccentric middle-aged intellectual who has been dismissed from his job as a high school teacher on moral grounds, is investigating his fathers death forty years after the fact, and is drawn into a web of suspicion and black humor.

Compulsory Happiness

Norman Manea Translated by Linda Coverdale

In cool, precise prose, and with an unerring sense of the absurd, the four novellas of Compulsory Happiness create a picture of everyday life in a grotesque police state, expressing terror and hope, fear and solidarity, the humorous triviality of the ordinary, and the painful search for an ideal. Norman Maneas four novellas, written during the later Ceausescu years, offer a comparable contrast to other Eastern European dissident writing. Instead of the energetic irony, the ebullient absurdism, the sharp-eyed wit, we find a dreamy disconnection, a voice that shock has lowered, an air of sweetness driven mad.Richard Eder, Los Angeles Times Mr. Maneas voice is radically new, and we are blessedly awakened and alerted by the demand his fiction makes on our understanding.Lore Segal, New York Times Book Review

The Lair
Norman Manea
Translated by Oana Snziana Marian

Now available for the first time in English, Maneas acclaimed novel of migrs in America, free yet imprisoned by the past
Norman Manea, Romanias most famous contemporary author, twice has survived the grip of totalitarian regimes. No stranger to exile, he mines its complexities and disorientations in this extraordinarily compelling novel, The Lair. Exile in the motherland and away from it is the shared plight of his protagonists. Nowhere at home, they move through their lives in a continuous, ever-elusive quest for national and individual identity. Maneas characters seek a place and a voice in America, only to discover that the shackles of their native totalitarian and nationalist ideologies are impossible to break. Maneas themes and narrative approach are intricate: his style fluctuates in correspondence with the instability of his characters lives, his story is encased within an elaborate network of allusions and paradoxes. Yet in the midst of the novels overriding disorientation, the author establishes intersections and uncovers the universal. Through the predicaments of his perpetual outsiders, he offers a poignant assessment of the conflicts of the individual in the age of globalization. He writes with unmatched intensity and a unique sensitivity to the human tragicomedy.
NORMAN MANEA is Francis Flourny Professor of European Culture and writer-in-residence at Bard College. A novelist and essayist, he first published in Communist Romania in the 1960s, producing a string of socially critical works that led to his expulsion in 1986. His work has been translated into more than twenty languages, and he has received many important cultural and literary prizes, including the MacArthur Fellowship (U.S.), the Nonino Prize (Italy), and the Lgion dhonneur (France).

In this bitterly funny novel a writer finds himself tossed into a chaotic world of schoolboys by a diabolical professor who wishes to reduce him to childishness. Originally published in Poland in 1937, Ferdydurke was deemed scandalous and subversive by Nazis, Stalinists, and the Polish Communist regime in turn and was officially banned in Poland for decades. It has nonetheless remained one of the most influential works of twentieth-century European literature.

A single-volume edition of Diary, Gombrowiczs acclaimed masterpiece, now with previously unpublished pages restored
Just before the outbreak of World War II, young Witold Gombrowicz left his home in Poland and set sail for South America. In 1953, still living as an expatriate in Argentina, he began his Diary with one of literatures most memorable openings: Monday Me. Tuesday Me. Wednesday Me. Thursday Me. Gombrowiczs Diary grew to become a vast collection of essays, short notes, polemics, and confessions on myriad subjects ranging from political events to literature to the certainty of death. Not a traditional journal, Diary is instead the commentary of a brilliant and restless mind. Widely regarded as a masterpiece, this brilliant work compelled Gombrowiczs attention for a decade and a half until he penned his final entry in France, shortly before his death in 1969. Long out of print in English, Diary is now presented in a convenient single volume featuring a new preface by Rita Gombrowicz, the authors widow and literary executor. This edition also includes ten previously unpublished pages from the 1969 portion of the diary.

In this inspired translation of Like a Straw Bird It Follows Me, Ghassan Zaqtans tenth and most recent poetry collection, along with selected earlier poems, Fady Joudah brings to English-language readers the best work by one of the most important and original Palestinian poets of our time. With these poems Zaqtan enters new terrain, illuminating the vision of what Arabic poetry in general and Palestinian poetry in particular are capable of. Departing from the lush aesthetics of such celebrated predecessors as Mahmoud Darwish and Adonis, Zaqtans daily, delicate narrative, whirling catalogues, and at times austere aesthetics represent a new trajectory, a significant leap for young Arabic poets today. In his preface to the volume, Joudah analyzes and explores the poets body of work. Ghassan Zaqtans poems, in their constant unfolding, Joudah writes, invite us to enter them, exit them, map and unmap them, code and decode them, fill them up and empty them, with the living and nonliving, the animate and inanimate, toward a true freedom.
Palestinian poet GHASSAN ZAQTAN is the author of ten collections of poetry. He is also a novelist, editor, and filmmaker. He was born in Beit Jala, near Bethlehem, and has lived in Jordan, Beirut, Damascus, and Tunis. He returned to Palestine in 1994 and now lives in Ramallah.

Q: Why did you write this book?

A: I think about politics all the time when I read, and Ive been reading the Bible all my life. So why should this book be different from any other book? There is a politics in the Bible, and sometimes an anti-politics, and the stories and arguments are gripping. They cry out for our engagement.

Q: What did you find most surprising in the Bible?

A: The many voices, the radical pluralism of the Bible, which is really an anthology, a book of books. The last editors would never have called themselves pluralists or articulated a doctrine of pluralism, but they were remarkably inclusive. They brought together radically contradictory views, without seeking to harmonize the contradictions.

A conversation with Michael Walzer

Q: So, is there a biblical political doctrine, a single teaching, a lesson to be learned?

A: No. Biblical fundamentalists will have a hard time finding the foundations. There is a biblical doctrine about religion and one about justice, but there is radical disagreement among the Bibles authors about politics. Some are actively hostile: when God is king, what need is there for human politics?

Praise for Michael Walzers Arguing about War:

Walzer has moved the concerns over just war from the periphery of political theory to the very center of our democratic dilemma.Garry Wills, New York Review of Books

Praise for Michael Walzers On Toleration:

The genius of Walzers little book . . . is how realistic it is about the contradictions confronting those who would create an open society.E. J. Dionne, Jr., Washington Post

In Gods Shadow
Michael Walzer

Politics in the Hebrew Bible

One of our most distinguished political theorists deliberates on the politics of the Bible and arrives at unexpected conclusions
In this eagerly awaited book, political theorist Michael Walzer reports his findings after decades of thinking about the politics of the Hebrew Bible. Attentive to nuance while engagingly straightforward, Walzer examines the laws, the histories, the prophecies, and the wisdom of the ancient biblical writers and discusses their views on such central political questions as justice, hierarchy, war, the authority of kings and priests, and the experience of exile. Because there are many biblical writers with differing views, pluralism is a central feature of biblical politics. Yet pluralism, Walzer observes, is never explicitly defended in the Bible; indeed, it couldnt be defended since Gods word had to be as singular as God himself. Yet different political regimes are described in the biblical texts, and there are conflicting political argumentsand also a recurrent anti-political argument: if you have faith in God, you have no need for strong institutions, prudent leaders, or reformist policies. At the same time, however, in the books of law and prophecy, the people of Israel are called upon to overcome oppression and let justice well up like water, righteousness like an unfailing stream.
MICHAEL WALZER is professor (emeritus) of social science, Institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, NJ.

The New Industrial Revolution

Peter Marsh

Consumers, Globalization and the End of Mass Production

The world is on the cusp of a manufacturing revolution, with open opportunities for those who understand what is driving the change
The rapid emergence of China and India as prime locations for low-cost manufacturing has led some analysts to conclude that manufacturers in the old economiesthe U.S., U.K., Germany, and Japanare being edged out of a profitable future. But if countries that historically have been at the forefront of events in manufacturing can adapt adroitly, opportunities are by no means over, says the author of this timely book. Peter Marsh explores 250 years in the history of manufacturing, then examines the characteristics of the industrial revolution that is taking place right now. The driving forces that influence what types of goods are made and who makes them are little understood, Marsh observes. He discusses the key changes in what is happening in manufacturing today, including advances in technology, a greater focus on tailor-made goods aimed at specific individuals and industry users, participation of many more countries in world manufacturing, and the growing importance of sustainable forms of production. With broad historical sweep and dozens of engaging examples, Marsh explains these changes and their import both for consumers making purchase choices and for manufacturers assessing how to participate successfully in the new industrial era.
PETER MARSH is a journalist who reports on developments in manufacturing-related industries for the Financial Times. He received the U.K. Business Journalist of the Year Award in the manufacturing category in 2002. He lives in London.

This extensive collection of proverbs, all coined after 1900, reflects the experiences and perplexities of the modern world
You cant unring a bell. It takes a village to raise a child. Life is just a bowl of cherries. We sometimes think of proverbs as expressions of ancient wisdom, but in fact new proverbs are constantly arising. This unique volume is devoted exclusively to English-language proverbs that originated in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. The most complete and accurate such collection ever compiled, The Dictionary of Modern Proverbs presents more than 1,400 individual proverbs gathered and researched with the help of electronic full-text databases not previously used for such a project. Entries are organized alphabetically by key words, with information about the earliest datable appearance, origin, history, and meaning of each proverb. Mundane or sublime, serious or jocular, these memorable sayings represent virtually every aspect of the modern experience. Readers will find the book almost impossible to put down once opened; every page offers further proof of the immense vitality of proverbs and their colorful contributions to the oral traditions of today.

Liberty and Tolerance in an Age of Religious Conflict

Edited by Kelly James Clark

Fifteen prominent thinkers turn to the sacred writings of their different theological traditions to defend religious tolerance
Scarcely any country in todays world can claim to be free of intolerance. Israel and Palestine, Northern Ireland, Sudan, the Balkans, Pakistan, India, Sri Lanka, and the Caucasus are just some of the areas of intractable conflict apparently inspired or exacerbated by religious differences. Can devoted Jews, Christians, or Muslims remain true to their own fundamental beliefs and practices, yet also find paths toward liberty, tolerance, and respect for those of other faiths? In this vitally important book, fifteen influential practitioners of the Abrahamic religions address religious liberty and tolerance from the perspectives of their own faith traditions. Former president Jimmy Carter, Rabbi Arik Ascherman, Indonesias first democratically elected president, Abdurrahman Wahid, and the other writers draw on their personal experiences and on the sacred writings that are central in their own religious lives. Rather than relying on pure reason, as secularists might prefer, the contributors celebrate religious traditions and find within them a way toward mutual peace, uncompromised liberty, and principled tolerance. Offering a counterbalance to incendiary religious leaders who cite Holy Writ to justify intolerance and violence, the contributors reveal how tolerance and respect for believers in other faiths stand at the core of the Abrahamic traditions.

Hitlers Berlin
Abused City Thomas Friedrich
How Berlin captivated Hitlers imagination, and how he sought to redesign the city to align with his obsessions and ambitions
From his first visit to Berlin in 1916, Hitler was preoccupied and fascinated by Germanys great capital city. In this vivid and entirely new account of Hitlers relationship with Berlin, Thomas Friedrich explores how Hitler identified with the city, how his political aspirations were reflected in architectural aspirations for the capital, and how Berlin surprisingly influenced the development of Hitlers political ideas. A leading expert on the twentieth-century history of Berlin, Friedrich employs new and little-known German sources to track Hitlers attitudes and plans for the city. Even while he despised both the cosmopolitan culture of the Weimar Republic and the profound Jewish influence on the city, Hitler was drawn to the grandiosity of its architecture and its imperial spirit. He dreamed of transforming Berlin into a capital that would reflect his autocracy, and he used the city for such varied purposes as testing his anti-Semitic policies and demonstrating the might of the Third Reich. Illuminating Berlins burdened years under Nazi subjection, Friedrich offers new understandings of Hitler and his politics, architectural views, and artistic opinions.
The late THOMAS FRIEDRICH grew up in Berlin and spent his adult life there. He was a museum curator and for many years was project leader for history at the Museum Education Service in Berlin.

A Life

Strindberg
Sue Prideaux
A mesmerizing account of the chaotic life and brilliant work of a playwright whose influence is undiminished 100 years after his death
Novelist, satirist, poet, photographer, painter, alchemist, and hellraiserAugust Strindberg was all these, and yet he is principally known, in Arthur Millers words, as the mad inventor of modern theater who led playwriting out of the polite drawing room into the snakepit of psychological warfare. This biography, supported by extensive new research, describes the eventful and complicated life of one of the great literary figures in world literature. Sue Prideaux organizes Strindbergs story into a gripping and highly readable narrative that both illuminates his work and restores humor and humanity to a man often shrugged off as too difficult. Best known for his play Miss Julie, Strindberg wrote sixty other plays, three books of poetry, eighteen novels, and nine autobiographies. Even more than most, Strindberg is a writer whose life sheds invaluable light on his work. Prideaux explores Strindbergs many art-life connections, revealing for the first time the originals who inspired the characters of Miss Julie and her servant Jean, the bizarre circumstances in which the play was written, and the real suicide that inspired the shattering ending of the play. Recounting the playwrights journey through the real world as well as the world of belief and ideas, Prideaux marks the centenary of Strindbergs death in 1912 with a biography worthy of the man who laid the foundation for Western drama through the twentieth century and even into the twenty-first.

Q: How did you come to write this book?

A: I became interested in just how different men and womens reading has often been. Men have worried since ancient times about what women read but the reverse has hardly ever been the case.

Q: What were the most striking stories uncovered in the course of your research?
A: Its been fascinating tracing womens responses to misogynist writings that they then re-wroteacross the centuries and different cultures. And I was astonished by so-called medical works in the nineteenth century recommending that unstable women should be prevented from reading novels. One eminent physician recommended books on beekeeping!

A conversation with Belinda Jack

Q: Is the story essentially one of slow improvement?

A: In some ways, but not altogether. I was struck by just how similar attitudes to womens reading were in late-eighteenthand early-nineteenth-century Europe and in Ancient Rome. In both contexts women were encouraged to read only insofar as it provided them with a moral training, or helped them to be good mother-educators. The other parallel was that literate women reflected their husbands social status.

Q: Were you ever discouraged from reading or denied access to certain books?
A: Both my parents were keen readers but my father didnt think I should read stories in which people diedwhich ruled out a good deal! They used to call me either a bookworm or a great reader. Even when quite young I saw how very different those descriptions were.

Mexico

Democracy Interrupted

Jo Tuckman
An up-to-date portrait of Mexico since 2000, with new insights into the nations problematic democracy and violent drug wars
In 2000, Mexicos long invincible Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) lost the presidential election to Vicente Fox of the National Action Party (PAN). The ensuing changeoverafter 71 years of PRI dominancewas hailed as the beginning of a new era of hope for Mexico. Yet the promises of the PAN victory were not consolidated. In this vivid account of Mexicos recent history, a journalist with extensive reporting experience investigates the nations young democracy, its shortcomings and achievements, and why the PRI is favored to retake the presidency in 2012. Jo Tuckman reports on the murky, terrifying world of Mexicos drug wars, the counterproductive government strategy, and the impact of U.S. policies. She describes the reluctance and inability of politicians to seriously tackle rampant corruption, environmental degradation, pervasive poverty, and acute inequality. To make matters worse, the influence of non-elected interest groups has grown and public trust in almost all institutionsincluding the Catholic churchis fading. The pressure valve once presented by emigration is also closing. Even so, there are positive signs: the critical media cannot be easily controlled, and small but determined citizen groups notch up significant, if partial, victories for accountability. While Mexico faces complex challenges that can often seem insurmountable, Tuckman concludes, the unflagging vitality and imagination of many in Mexico inspire hope for a better future.
JO TUCKMAN is a Mexico-based foreign correspondent who reports for The Guardian, among many other publications on both sides of the Atlantic. She lives in Mexico City.

John Lynch

A Religious History of Latin America

A brilliant capstone work that analyzes the entire history of Latin Americas reception of Christianity
This extraordinary book encompasses the time period from the first Christian evangelists arrival in Latin America to the dictators of the late twentieth century. With unsurpassed knowledge of Latin American history, John Lynch sets out to explore the reception of Christianity by native peoples and how it influenced their social and religious lives as the centuries passed. As attentive to modern times as to the colonial period, Lynch also explores the extent to which Indian religion and ancestral ways survived within the new Christian culture. The book follows the development of religious culture over time by focusing on peak periods of change: the response of religion to the Enlightenment, the emergence of the Church from the wars of independence, the Romanization of Latin American religion as the papacy overtook the Spanish crown in effective control of the Church, the growing challenge of liberalism and the secular state, and in the twentieth century, military dictators assaults on human rights. Throughout the narrative, Lynch develops a number of special themes and topics. Among these are the Spanish struggle for justice for Indians, the Churchs position on slavery, the concept of popular religion as distinct from official religion, and the development of liberation theology.
JOHN LYNCH is Emeritus Professor of Latin American History and former director of the Institute of Latin American Studies, University of London. He is the author of more than a dozen books on Latin American topics. He lives in London.

Moshe Dayan

Israels Controversial Hero Mordechai Bar-On

A vivid portrait of one of the most powerful leaders in Israels first decades of statehood
Instantly recognizable with his iconic eye patch, Moshe Dayan (19151981) was one of Israels most charismaticand controversialpersonalities. As a youth he earned the reputation of a fearless warrior, and in later years as a leading military tactician, admired by peers and enemies alike. As chief of staff during the 1956 Sinai Campaign and as minister of defense during the 1967 Six Day War, Dayan led the Israel Defense Forces to stunning military victories. But in the aftermath of the bungled 1973 Yom Kippur War, he shared the blame for operational mistakes and retired from the government. He later proved himself a principled and talented diplomat, playing an integral role in peace negotiations with Egypt. In this memorable biography, Mordechai Bar-On, Dayans IDF bureau chief, offers an intimate view of Dayans private life, public career, and political controversies, set against an original analysis of Israels political environment from pre-Mandate Palestine through the early 1980s. Drawing on a wealth of Israeli archives, accounts by Dayan and members of his circle, and firsthand experiences, Bar-On reveals Dayan as a man unwavering in his devotion to Zionism and the Land of Israel. Moshe Dayan makes a unique contribution to the history of Israel and the complexities of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
MORDECHAI BAR-ON is senior research fellow, Yad Izhak Ben-Zvi Institute, Jerusalem. He served in the Israel Defense Forces as General Moshe Dayans bureau chief during the Sinai Campaign, and in 1984 was elected to the Knesset, Israels parliament. He lives in Jerusalem.

Joshua M. Glasser

McGovern, Eagleton, and a Campaign in Crisis

The riveting story of a doomed presidential ticket and the truth behind this singular election-year drama
No skeletons were rattling in his closet, Thomas Eagleton assured George McGoverns political director. But only eighteen days laterafter a series of damaging public revelations and feverish behind-the-scenes maneuveringsMcGovern rescinded his endorsement of his Democratic vice-presidential running mate, and Eagleton withdrew from the ticket. This fascinating book is the first to uncover the full story behind Eagletons rise and precipitous fall as a national candidate. Within days of Eagletons nomination, a pair of anonymous phone calls brought to light his history of hospitalizations for nervous exhaustion and depression and past treatment with electroshock therapy. The revelation rattled the campaign and placed McGoverns organization under intense public and media scrutiny. Joshua M. Glasser investigates a campaign in disarray and explores the perspectives of the campaigns key players, how decisions were made and who made them, how cultural attitudes toward mental illness informed the crisis, and how Eagletons and McGoverns personal ambitions shaped the course of events. Drawing on personal interviews with McGovern, campaign manager Gary Hart, political director Frank Mankiewicz, and dozens of other participants inside and outside the McGovern and Eagleton campsas well as extensive unpublished campaign recordsGlasser captures the political and human drama of Eagletons brief candidacy. Glasser also offers sharp insights into the America of 1972mired in war and anxious about the economy, a time with striking similarities to our own.

The Expulsion of the Germans after the Second World War R. M. Douglas
More than 12 million German-speaking civilians in Europe were driven from their homes in the wake of WWII, yet barely anyone noticed or remembers
Immediately after the Second World War, the victorious Allies authorized and helped to carry out the forced relocation of German speakers from their homes across central and southern Europe to Germany. The numbers were almost unimaginablebetween 12,000,000 and 14,000,000 civilians, most of them women and childrenand the losses horrifyingat least 500,000 people, and perhaps many more, died while detained in former concentration camps, while locked in trains en route, or after arriving in Germany exhausted, malnourished, and homeless. This book is the first in any language to tell the full story of this immense man-made catastrophe. Based mainly on archival records of the countries that carried out the forced migrations and of the international humanitarian organizations that tried but failed to prevent the disastrous results, Orderly and Humane: The Expulsion of the Germans after the Second World War is an authoritative and objective account. It examines an aspect of European history that few have wished to confront, exploring how the expulsions were conceived, planned, and executed and how their legacy reverberates throughout central Europe today. The book is an important study of the largest recorded episode of what we now call ethnic cleansing, and it may also be the most significant untold story of the Second World War.

Life in Cosmopolitan London Judith R. Walkowitz

Londons Soho district underwent a spectacular transformation between the late Victorian era and the end of the Second World War: its fin-de-sicle buildings and dark streets infamous for sex, crime, political disloyalty, and ethnic diversity became a center of culinary and cultural tourism servicing patrons of nearby shops and theaters. Indulgences for the privileged and the upwardly mobile edged a dangerous, transgressive space imagined to be outside the nation. Treating Soho as exceptional, but also representative of Londons urban transformation, Judith Walkowitz shows how the areas foreignness and porousness were key to the explosion of culture and development of modernity in the first half of the twentieth century. She draws on a vast and unusual range of sources to stitch together a rich patchwork quilt of vivid stories and unforgettable characters, revealing how Soho became a showcase for a new cosmopolitan identity.

The Irish Aristocracy in the Seventeenth Century Jane Ohlmeyer

This groundbreaking book provides the first comprehensive study of the remaking of Irelands aristocracy during the seventeenth century. It is a study of the Irish peerage and its role in the establishment of English control over Ireland. Jane Ohlmeyers research in the archives of the era yields a major new understanding of early Irish and British elite, and it offers fresh perspectives on the experiences of the Irish, English, and Scottish lords in wider British and continental contexts. The book examines the resident peerage as an aggregate of 91 families, not simply 311 individuals, and demonstrates how a reconstituted peerage of mixed faith and ethnicity assimilated the established Catholic aristocracy. Tracking the impact of colonization, civil war, and other significant factors on the fortunes of the peerage in Ireland, Ohlmeyer arrives at a fresh assessment of the key accomplishment of the new Irish elite: making Ireland English.

An intimate new portrait of one of historys most controversial figures: heroic revolutionary or the first terrorist?
For some historians and biographers, Maximilien Robespierre (175894) was a great revolutionary martyr who succeeded in leading the French Republic to safety in the face of overwhelming military odds. For many others, he was the first modern dictator, a fanatic who instigated the murderous Reign of Terror in 179394. This masterful biography combines new research into Robespierres dramatic life with a deep understanding of society and the politics of the French Revolution to arrive at a fresh understanding of the man, his passions, and his tragic shortcomings.

The Aspiring Self in France from the Old Regime to the New Kathleen Kete
Examining the lives and works of three iconic personalities Germaine de Stal, Stendhal, and Georges CuvierKathleen Kete creates a groundbreaking cultural history of ambition in post-Revolutionary France. While in the old regime the traditionalist view of ambition prevailedthat is, ambition as morally wrong unless subsumed into a corporate wholethe new regime was marked by a rising tide of competitive individualism. Greater opportunities for personal advancement, however, were shadowed by lingering doubts about the moral value of ambition. Kete identifies three strategies used to overcome the ethical burden of ambition: romantic genius (Stal), secular vocation (Stendhal), and postmythic destiny (Cuvier). In each case, success would seem to be driven by forces outside ones control. She concludes by examining the still relevant (and still unresolved) conundrum of the relationship of individual desires to community needs, which she identifies as a defining characteristic of the modern world.

Is opium a vile curse on society, a blessed medicine from God, or possibly both? This fresh history offers surprising new insights.
Opium and its derivatives morphine and heroin have destroyed, corrupted, and killed individuals, families, communities, and even whole nations. And yet, for most of its long history, opium has also been humanitys most effective means of alleviating physical and mental pain.

A Documentary History Zhou Xun
Beginning soon after the implementation of the policies of the Great Leap Forward of 19581961, when the drive to collectivize and industrialize undermined the livelihoods of the vast majority of peasant workers, Chinas Great Famine was the worst famine in human history. In addition to claiming more than 45 million lives, it also led to the destruction of agriculture, industry, trade, and every aspect of human life, leaving large parts of the Chinese countryside scarred forever by human-created environmental disasters. Drawing on previously closed archives that have since been made inaccessible again, Zhou Xun offers readers, for the first time in English, access to the most vital archival documentation of the famine. For some time to come this documentary history may be the only publication available that contains the most crucial primary documents concerning the fate of the Chinese peasantry between 1958 and 1962. It covers everything from collectivization and survival strategies, including cannibalism, to selective killing and mass murder.

The Late Medieval English Church

Vitality and Vulnerability Before the Break with Rome G.W. Bernard
The later medieval English church is invariably viewed through the lens of the Reformation that transformed it. But in this bold and provocative book historian George Bernard examines it on its own terms, revealing a church with vibrant faith and great energy, but also with weaknesses that reforming bishops worked to overcome. Bernard emphasizes royal control over the church. He examines the challenges facing bishops and clergy, and assesses the depth of lay knowledge and understanding of the teachings of the church, highlighting the practice of pilgrimage. He reconsiders anti-clerical sentiment and the extent and significance of heresy. He shows that the Reformation was not inevitable: the late medieval church was much too full of vitality. But Bernard also argues that alongside that vitality, and often closely linked to it, were vulnerabilities that made the break with Rome and the dissolution of the monasteries possible. The result is a thought-provoking study of a church and society in transformation.

Wellingtons Wars
Huw J. Davies

The Making of a Military Genius

A provocative reappraisal of Wellingtons military career, his victory at Waterloo, and the source of his genius as a general
Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington, lives on in popular memory as the Invincible General, loved by his men, admired by his peers, formidable to his opponents. This incisive book revises such a portrait, offering an accurateand controversialnew analysis of Wellingtons remarkable military career. Unlike his nemesis Napoleon, Wellington was by no means a man of innate military talent, Huw J. Davies argues. Instead, the key to Wellingtons military success was an exceptionally keen understanding of the relationship between politics and war. Drawing on extensive primary research, Davies discusses Wellingtons military apprenticeship in India, where he learned through mistakes as well as successes how to plan campaigns, organize and use intelligence, and negotiate with allies. In India Wellington encountered the constant political machinations of indigenous powers, and it was there that he apprenticed in the crucial skill of balancing conflicting political priorities. In later campaigns and battles, including the Peninsular War and Waterloo, Wellingtons genius for strategy, operations, and tactics emerged. For his success in the art of war, he came to rely on his art as a politician and tactician. This strikingly original book shows how Wellington made even unlikely victories possiblewith a well-honed political brilliance that underpinned all of his military achievements.

The Feathery Tribe

Robert Ridgway and the Modern Study of Birds Daniel Lewis

For many years, ornithology was the province of the wealthy gentleman hunter who shot, stuffed, and preserved his specimens, and of the museum that collected simply to document natural history, not to analyze it. Even as evolutionary theory began to make its mark on the study of birds, it remained a science heavily populated by amateurs. Daniel Lewis here explores the professionalization of ornithology through one of its key figures: Robert Ridgway, the Smithsonian Institutions first curator of birds and one of North Americas most important natural scientists.

The Good, the True, and the Beautiful

A Neuronal Approach Jean-Pierre Changeux
Translated and Revised by Laurence Garey
In this fascinating and bold discussion, a renowned neurobiologist serves as guide to the most complex physical object in the living world: the human brain. Taking into account the newest brain researchmorphological, physiological, chemical, geneticand placing these findings in the context of psychology, philosophy, art, and literature, Changeux ventures into the unexplored territories where these diverse disciplines intersect. Changeuxs book draws on Platos notion that the Good, the True, and the Beautiful are celestial essences or ideas, independent but so intertwined as to be inseparable. Placing these essences within the characteristic features of the human brains neuronal organization, the author addresses unsolved questions in neuroscience today. With imagination and deep insight, Changeux illuminates the evolution of the brain and deciphers what new developments in neuroscience may portend for the future of humanity.
JEAN-PIERRE CHANGEUX held the Chair of Cellular Communication at the Collge de France for thirty years, and is a member of the French Academy of Sciences and a foreign associate of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.

The Bride and the Dowry

Avi Raz

Israel, Jordan, and the Palestinians in the Aftermath of the June 1967 War

The untold story of Israels diplomatic maneuvering in the wake of the Six Day War, which frustrated a possible peace settlement
Israels victory in the June 1967 Six Day War provided a unique opportunity for resolving the decades-old Arab-Zionist conflict. Having seized the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, the Sinai Peninsula, and the Golan Heights, Israel for the first time in its history had something concrete to offer its Arab neighbors: it could trade land for peace. Why? Avi Raz places Israels conduct under an uncompromising lens. He meticulously examines the critical two years following the June war and substantially revises our understanding of how and why Israeli-Arab secret contacts came to naught. Mining newly declassified records in Israeli, American, British, and UN archives, as well as private papers of individual participants, Raz dispels the myth of overall Arab intransigence and arrives at new and unexpected conclusions. In short, he concludes that Israels postwar diplomacy was deliberately ineffective because its leaders preferred land over peace with its neighbors. The book throws a great deal of light not only on the post-1967 period but also on the problems and pitfalls of peacemaking in the Middle East today.
AVI RAZ is associate member of the Faculty of Oriental Studies, University of Oxford, and research fellow at Wolfson College, Oxford, specializing in the Arab-Israeli conflict. He was formerly a journalist at a leading Israeli daily, where his assignments abroad included bureau chief in New York and Moscow. He lives in Oxford, UK.

A History of Gender, Power, and Desire Julie Berebitsky

In this engaging bookthe first to historicize our understanding of sexual harassment in the workplaceJulie Berebitsky explores how Americans attitudes toward sexuality and gender in the office have changed from the 1860s, when women first took jobs as clerks in the U.S. Treasury office, to the present. Berebitsky recounts the actual experiences of female and male office workers; draws on archival sources ranging from the records of investigators looking for waste in government offices during World War II to the personal papers of Cosmopolitan editor Helen Gurley Brown and Ms. magazine founder Gloria Steinem; and explores how popular sourcesincluding cartoons, advertisements, advice guides, and a wide array of fictional accountshave represented wanted and unwelcome romantic and sexual advances. By giving sex in the office a history, she provides valuable insights into the nature and meaning of sexual harassment today.

Instituting Reform

The Social Museum of Harvard University, 19031931 Edited by Deborah Martin Kao and Michelle Lamunire
Instituting Reform examines the history, motive, and meaning of Harvards distinctive Social Museum, established in 1903 by Francis Greenwood Peabody (18471936) to collect the social experience of the world as material for university teaching. The more than 5,000 photographs and graphic illustrations that survive, including works by Lewis Hine and Frances Benjamin Johnston, are now held by the Harvard Art Museums.

The books five essays probe the Social Museums collection, using it as a case study to explore the early institutional uses of photographs as social documents, the systematization of exhibition display by reform organizations, and the role such institutions played in the formation of the modern research university. The museum promoted the study of philanthropic, social, and industrial progress through the inductive method of observation common in the sciences. As the authors demonstrate, however, the social truths made evident were strongly influenced by prevailing values and tensions of the Progressive Era.

The End of the Chinese Dream

Why Chinese People Fear the Future Gerard Lemos
A path-breaking study of ordinary Chinese people and how they perceive their lives and opportunities in modern China
Glossy television images of happy, industrious, and increasingly prosperous workers show a bright view of life in twenty-first-century China. But behind the officially approved story is a different reality. Preparing this book Gerard Lemos asked hundreds of Chinese men and women living in Chongqing, an industrial mega-city, about their wishes and fears. The lives they describe expose the myth of Chinas harmonious society. Hundreds of millions of everyday people in China are beleaguered by immense social and health problems as well as personal, family, and financial anxietieswhile they watch their communities and traditions being destroyed. Lemos investigates a China beyond the foreigners beaten track. This is a revealing account of the thoughts and feelings of Chinese people regarding all facets of their lives, from education to health care, unemployment to old age, politics to wealth. Taken together, the stories of these men and women bring to light a broken society, one whose people are frustrated, angry, sad, and often fearful about the circumstances of their lives. The author considers the implications of these findings and analyzes how Chinas community and social problems threaten the ambitious nations hopes for a prosperous and cohesive future. Lemos explains why protests will continue and a divided and self-serving leadership will not make peoples dreams come true.
GERARD LEMOS is a social policy expert and frequent advisor to governments, businesses, and charities. He was acting chairman of the British Council and was a visiting professor at Chongqing Technical University between 2006 and 2010. He lives in London.

The Life of the Virgin

Maximus the Confessor Translated, with an Introduction and Notes, by Stephen J. Shoemaker
Long overlooked by scholars, this seventh-century Life of the Virgin, attributed to Maximus the Confessor, is the earliest complete Marian biography. Originally written in Greek and now surviving only in Old Georgian, it is now translated for the first time into English. It is a work that holds profound significance for understanding the history of late ancient and medieval Christianity, providing a rich source for understanding the history of Christian piety. This Life is especially remarkable for its representation of Marys prominent involvement in her sons ministry and her leadership of the early Christian community. In particular, it reveals highly developed devotion to Marys compassionate suffering at the Crucifixion, anticipating by several centuries an influential medieval style of devotion known as affective piety whose origins generally have been confined to the Western High Middle Ages.

Ancient Christian Martyrdom

Diverse Practices, Theologies, and Traditions Candida R. Moss

The importance of martyrdom for the spread of Christianity in the first centuries of the Common Era is a question of enduring interest. In this innovative new study, Candida Moss offers a radically new history of martyrdom in the first and second centuries that challenges traditional understandings of the spread of Christianity and rethinks the nature of Christian martyrdom itself. Martyrdom, Moss shows, was not a single idea, theology, or practice: there were diverse perspectives and understandings of what it meant to die for Christ. Beginning with an overview of ancient Greek, Roman, and Jewish ideas about death, Moss demonstrates that there were many cultural contexts within which early Christian views of martyrdom were very much at home. She then shows how distinctive and diverging theologies of martyrdom emerged in different ancient congregations. In the process she reexamines the authenticity of early Christian stories about martyrs and calls into question the dominant scholarly narrative about the spread of martyrdom in the ancient world.
CANDIDA R. MOSS is assistant professor of theology at the University of Notre Dame.

Remembering Shakespeare

David Scott Kastan and Kathryn James

To be or not to be. My kingdom for a horse. Shall I compare thee to a summers day. How is it that Shakespeare is so well remembered? In this richly illustrated book, David Scott Kastan and Kathryn James explore Yale Universitys extraordinary collection of works by or relating to William Shakespeare. They chart the winding course by which the playwright has been remembered, often in unexpected ways, for some four centuries. Many of the rare items illustrated and discussed in the book have never before been publicly displayed. The authors examine such treasures as the earliest known manuscript of Macbeth, a sixteenth-century readers notes on Shakespeare, and a proof copy of Walt Whitmans ShakespeareBacons Cipher, to show how various, idiosyncratic acts of memory over hundreds of years have given us the texts, and even the person, we remember as Shakespeare.

Delmira Agustini, Sexual Seduction, and Vampiric Conquest

Cathy L. Jrade
Delmira Agustini (18861914) has been acclaimed as one of the foremost modernistas and the first major woman poet of twentieth-century Spanish America. Critics and the reading public alike were immediately taken by the originality and power of her verse, especially her daring eroticism, her inventive appropriation of vampirism, and her morbid embrace of death and pain. No work until now, however, has shown how her poetry reflects a search for an alternative, feminized discourse, a discourse that engages in an imaginative dialogue with Rubn Daros recourse to literary paternity and undertakes an audacious rewriting of social, sexual, and poetic conventions. In the first major exploration of Agustinis life and work, Cathy L. Jrade examines her energizing appropriation and reinvention of modernista verse and the dynamics of her breakthrough poetics, a poetics that became a model for later women writers.
CATHY L. JRADE is Chancellors Professor of Spanish and chair of the Department of Spanish and Portuguese at Vanderbilt University. She lives in Nashville, TN.

From Goods to a Good Life

Intellectual Property and Global Justice Madhavi Sunder

Most scholarship on intellectual property considers this law from the standpoint of law and economics. Under this conventional wisdom, intellectual property is simply a tool for promoting innovative products, from iPods to R2D2. In this highly original book Madhavi Sunder calls for a richer understanding of intellectual property laws effects on social and cultural life. Intellectual property does more than incentivize the production of more goods. This law fundamentally affects the ability of citizens to live a good life. Intellectual property law governs the abilities of human beings to make and share culture, and to profit from this enterprise in a global Knowledge economy. This book turns to social and cultural theory to more fully explore the deep connections between cultural production and human freedom.

The Bassoon
James Kopp
This welcome volume encompasses the entire history of the bassoon, from its origins five centuries ago to its place in twenty-first-century music. James Kopp draws on new archival research and many years of experience playing the instrument to provide an up-to-date and lively portrait of todays bassoon and its intriguing predecessors. He discusses the bassoons makers, its players, its repertory, and its audiences, all in unprecedented detail. The bassoon was invented in Italy in response to the need for a bass-register double-reed woodwind suitable for marching. The author examines the acoustical consequences of various design changes to the instrument through later centuries. He also offers new coverage of the bassoons social history, including its roles in the military and the church and its global use during the European Colonial period. Separate historical chapters devoted to contrabassoons and smaller bassoons complete the volume.

Useful Enemies

When Waging Wars Is More Important Than Winning Them David Keen

There are currently between twenty and thirty civil wars worldwide, while at a global level the Cold War has been succeeded by a war on drugs and a war on terror that continues to rage a decade after 9/11. Why is this, when we know how destructive war is in both human and economic terms? Why do the efforts of aid organizations and international diplomats founder so often? In this important book David Keen investigates why conflicts are so prevalent and so intractable, even when one side has much greater military resources. Could it be that endemic disorder and a state of emergency are more useful than bringing conflict to a close? Keen asks who benefits from warswhether economically, politically, or psychologicallyand argues that in order to bring them successfully to an end we need to understand the complex vested interests on all sides.
DAVID KEEN, professor of complex emergencies at the London School of Economics, is the author of Endless War?, The Benefits of Famine, and Complex Emergencies. He lives in Oxford, UK.

Roads to the Temple

Truth, Memory, Ideas, and Ideals in the Making of the Russian Revolution, 19871991 Leon Aron
Leon Aron considers the mystery of the Soviet collapse and finds answers in the intellectual and moral self-scrutiny of glasnost that brought about a profound shift in values. Reviewing the entire output of the key glasnost outlets in 19871991, he elucidates and documents key themes in this national soul-searching and the ultimate questions that sparked moral awakening of a great nation: Who are we? How do we live honorably? What is a dignified relationship between man and state? How do we atone for the moral breakdown of Stalinism? Contributing both to the theory of revolutions and history of ideas, Aron presents a thorough and original narrative about new ideas dissemination through the various media of the former Soviet Union. Aron shows how, reaching every corner of the nation, these ideas destroyed the moral foundation of the Soviet state, de-legitimized it and made its collapse inevitable.

The United States, the Soviet Union, and the Arab-Israeli Conflict, 19691973 Craig Daigle
In the first book-length analysis of the origins of the October 1973 ArabIsraeli War, Craig Daigle draws on documents only recently made available to show how the war resulted not only from tension and competing interest between Arabs and Israelis, but also from policies adopted in both Washington and Moscow. Between 1969 and 1973, the Middle East in general and the Arab-Israeli conflict in particular emerged as a crucial Cold War battleground where the limits of dtente appeared in sharp relief. By prioritizing Cold War dtente rather than genuine stability in the Middle East, Daigle shows, the United States and the Soviet Union fueled regional instability that ultimately undermined the prospects of a lasting peace agreement. Daigle further argues that as dtente increased tensions between Arabs and Israelis, these tensions in turn negatively affected U.S.Soviet relations.

The Unity of Christ

Continuity and Conflict in Patristic Tradition Christopher A. Beeley

No period of history was more formative for the development of Christianity than the patristic age, when church leaders, monks, and laity established the standard features of Christianity as we know it today. Combining historical and theological analysis, Christopher Beeley presents a detailed and far-reaching account of how key theologians and church councils understood the most central element of their faith, the identity and significance of Jesus Christ. Focusing particularly on the question of how Christ can be both human and divine and reassessing both officially orthodox and heretical figures, Beeley traces how an authoritative theological tradition was constructed. His book holds major implications for contemporary theology, church history, and ecumenical discussions, and it is bound to revolutionize the way in which patristic tradition is understood.

Interweaving historical and methodological chapters with detailed textual case studies, Baden provides a critical introduction to the history of Pentateuchal scholarship, discussions on the most pressing issues in the current debate, and a practical model for the study of the biblical text.

The Arch Conjuror of England

John Dee

Glyn Parry
Outlandish alchemist and magician, political intelligencer, apocalyptic prophet, and converser with angels, John Dee (15271609) was one of the most colorful and controversial figures of the Tudor world. In this fascinating bookthe first full-length biography of Dee based on primary historical sourcesGlyn Parry explores Dees vast array of political, magical, and scientific writings and finds that they cast significant new light on policy struggles in the Elizabethan court, conservative attacks on magic, and Europes religious wars. John Dee was more than just a fringe magus, Parry shows: he was a major figure of the Reformation and Renaissance.

Parrys intimate knowledge of 16th-century civic and ecclesiastical institutions allows him to paint a vivid picture of the shifting sands on which a figure like Dee had to operate. This account puts new material on the table and adds considerably to our understanding of both Dee and the worlds within which he operated (spiritual and temporal).William H.

Against War and Empire

Geneva, Britain, and France in the Eighteenth Century

Richard Whatmore
As Britain and France became more powerful during the eighteenth century, small states such as Geneva could no longer stand militarily against these commercial monarchies. Furthermore, many Genevans felt that they were being drawn into a corrupt commercial world dominated by amoral aristocrats dedicated to the unprincipled pursuit of wealth. In this book Richard Whatmore presents an intellectual history of republicans who strove to ensure Genevas survival as an independent state.

Reclaiming the Petition Clause

Seditious Libel, Offensive Protest, and the Right to Petition the Government for a Redress of Grievances

Ronald J. Krotoszynski, Jr.

Since the 2004 presidential campaign, when the Bush presidential advance team prevented anyone who seemed unsympathetic to their candidate from attending his ostensibly public appearances, it has become commonplace for law enforcement officers and political event sponsors to classify ordinary expressions of dissent as security threats and to try to keep officeholders as far removed from possible protest as they can. Thus without formally limiting free speech the government places arbitrary restrictions on how, when, and where such speech may occur.

Ronald Krotoszynski has successfully reclaimed the Petition Clause, an often-overlooked provision that is, as he ably demonstrates, critical to public contention and democratic self-governance.Timothy Zick, author of Speech Out of Doors: Preserving First Amendment Liberties in Public Places

The Vulnerability Thesis

Interest Group Influence and Institutional Design

Lorelei Moosbrugger
Where politics is dominated by two large parties, as in the United States, politicians should be relatively immune to the influence of small groups. Yet narrow interest groups often win private benefits against majority preferences and at great public expense. Why? The vulnerability thesis is that the electoral system is largely to blame, making politicians in two-party systems more vulnerable to interest group demands than politicians in multiparty systems. Political scientist Lorelei Moosbrugger ranks democracies on a continuum of political vulnerability and tests the thesis by examining agrochemical policy in Austria, Britain, Germany, Sweden, and the European Union.

Creating the Administrative Constitution

The Lost One Hundred Years of American Administrative Law

Jerry L. Mashaw
This groundbreaking book is the first to look at administration and administrative law in the earliest days of the American republic. Jerry Mashaw demonstrates that from the very beginning Congress delegated vast discretion to administrative officials and armed them with extrajudicial adjudicatory, rulemaking, and enforcement authority. The legislative and administrative practices of the U.S. Constitutions first century created an administrative constitution hardly hinted at in its formal text. This book, in the authors words, will demonstrate that there has been no precipitous fall from a historical position of separation-of-powers grace to a position of compromise; there is not a new administrative constitution whose legitimacy should be understood as not only contestable but deeply problematic.

Partly Laws Common to All Mankind

Foreign Law in American Courts

Jeremy Waldron
Should judges in United States courts be permitted to cite foreign laws in their rulings? In this book Jeremy Waldron explores some ideas in jurisprudence and legal theory that could underlie the Supreme Courts occasional recourse to foreign law, especially in constitutional cases. He argues that every society is governed not only by its own laws but partly also by laws common to all mankind (ius gentium). But he takes the unique step of arguing that this common law is not natural law but a grounded consensus among all nations. The idea of such a consensus will become increasingly important in jurisprudence and public affairs as the world becomes more globalized.

Energy and Twenty-First-Century Eurasian Geopolitics

Kent E. Calder
In this groundbreaking book Kent E. Calder argues that a new transnational configuration is emerging in Asia, driven by economic growth, rising energy demand, and the erosion of longstanding geopolitical divisions. What Calder calls the New Silk Roadwith a strengthening multi-faceted relationship between East Asia and the Middle East at its corecould eventually emerge as one of the worlds most important multilateral configurations. Straddling the border between comparative politics and international relations theory, this important book will stimulate debate and discussion in both fields.

International Trade and Labor Standards in History

It has become commonplace to think that globalization has produced a race to the bottom in terms of labor standards and quality of life: the cheaper the labor and the lower the benefits afforded workers, the more competitively a country can participate on the global stage. But in this book the distinguished economic historian Michael Huberman demonstrates that globalization has in fact been very good for workers quality of life, and that improved labor conditions have promoted globalization.

Ending Wars Well

Order, Justice, and Conciliation in Contemporary Post-Conflict

Eric D. Patterson
Though scholars of political science and moral philosophy have long analyzed the justifications for and against waging war as well as the ethics of warfare itself, the problem of ending wars has received less attention. In the first book to apply just war theory to this phase of conflict, Eric Patterson presents a three-part view of justice in end-of-war settings involving order, justice, and reconciliation. Pattersons case studies range from successful applications of jus post bellum, such as the U.S. Civil War or Kosovo, to challenges such as present-day Iraq.

This work is a major contribution to clear thinking and analysis of the problem of successful termination of military conflicts.Martin L.

Samuel Johnson Edited by Thomas Kaminski and Benjamin Beard Hoover;

From July 1741 to March 1744, Samuel Johnson composed speeches based on the actual debates in Parliament for publication in the Gentlemans Magazine. Because it was then illegal to print any account of parliamentary activities, the magazine published Johnsons contributions as the rather thinly disguised Debates in the Senate of Magna Lilliputia. These three volumes present Johnsons entire debate project with accompanying critical notes and, for the first time, retain his original Lilliputian terminology.

The Writings of Abraham Lincoln

Edited by Steven B. Smith
Abraham Lincoln never wrote a book: his ideas are contained in speeches, letters, and various occasional writings. By bringing these works together into a single anthology, this book shows that Lincoln deserves to be counted among the great political philosophers. In addition to many examples of Lincolns writings, this volume includes four interpretive essays that will provide an intellectual feast for any reader exploring his complex legacy. Danilo Petranovich looks at Lincolns conception of the Union and its radically new focus on purging the nation of the problem of slavery. Ralph Lerner reconsiders Lincolns relation to the American framers and in particular his effort to put the Declaration of Independence on a new foundation. Benjamin Kleinerman examines Lincolns always controversial views on the scope of executive power during war. And Steven Smith considers the place of religion in Lincolns political thought through a close reading of his Second Inaugural Address.

The Computer and the Brain

With a foreword by Ray Kurzweil
In this classic work, one of the greatest mathematicians of the twentieth century explores the analogies between computing machines and the living human brain. John von Neumann, whose many contributions to science, mathematics, and engineering include the basic organizational framework at the heart of todays computers, concludes that the brain operates both digitally and analogically, but also has its own peculiar statistical language. In his foreword to this new edition, Ray Kurzweil, a futurist famous in part for his own reflections on the relationship between technology and consciousness, places von Neumanns work in a historical context and shows how it remains relevant today.
At the time of his death in February 1957, JOHN VON NEUMANN, renowned for his theory of games and his work at the Electronic Computer Project at the Institute for Advanced Study, was serving as a member of the Atomic Energy Commission. RAY KURZWEIL is an inventor, author, and futurist who has written five books including The Singularity Is Near: When Humans Transcend Biology.

David Hume

The Philosopher as Historian Nicholas Phillipson

A giant of the eighteenth-century Enlightenment, David Hume was one of the most important philosophers ever to write in English. He was also a brilliant historian. In this booka new and revised edition of his 1989 classicNicholas Phillipson shows how Hume freed history from religion and politics. As a philosopher, Hume sought a way of seeing the world and pursuing happiness independently of a belief in God. His groundbreaking approach applied the same outlook to Britains history, showing how the past was shaped solely through human choices and actions. In this analysis of Humes life and works, from his university days in Edinburgh to the rapturous reception of his History of England, Nicholas Phillipson reveals the gradual process by which one of the greatest Western philosophers turned himself into one of the greatest historians of Britain. In doing so, he shows us how revolutionary Hume was, and why his ideas still matter today.
NICHOLAS PHILLIPSON is Honorary Research Fellow in History at the University of Edinburgh, where he has taught since 1965. He is the author of Adam Smith: An Enlightened Life.

Black Gotham is a fascinating look at a little-known segment of American history: African-American elites in New York City in the nineteenth century, told through Carla Petersons intriguing account of her quest to reconstruct the lives of her ancestors. Dr. Peterson took a hard, uphill journey to give greater life to the scraps she had about her family in nineteenth-century New York City and returned with a vital gift for all of us. It is a gift that not only offers a portrait of her family in that city but a larger, fairly unknown view of a pre-Harlem integrated society where many blacks were prosperous, enlightened, and thriving. Her book is a precious addition to the paucity of information we have about what blacks have done to make New York City and, indeed, America itself.Edward P.

Levant

Splendour and Catastrophe on the Mediterranean Philip Mansel

In Levant, distinguished historian Philip Mansel explores the rich and diverse history of three great port cities of the eastern MediterraneanSmyrna, Alexandria, and Beirut.

The Anatomy of Influence

Literature as a Way of Life Harold Bloom
Our most revered critic returns to his signature theme
For more than half a century, Harold Bloom has shared his profound knowledge of the written word with students and readers. In this, his most comprehensive and accessible study of influence, Bloom leads us through the labyrinthine paths that link the writers and critics who have informed and inspired him for so many years. The result is a critical self-portrait, a sustained meditation on a life lived with and through the great works of the Western canon. Featuring extended analyses of Blooms most cherished poetsShakespeare, Whitman, and Craneas well as inspired appreciations of Emerson, Tennyson, Browning, Yeats, Ashbery, and others, The Anatomy of Influence adapts Blooms classic work The Anxiety of Influence to show us what great literature is, how it comes to be, and why it matters.

Why Marx Was Right

Terry Eagleton
In this combative, controversial book, Terry Eagleton takes issue with the prejudice that Marxism is dead and done with. Taking ten of the most common objections to Marxismthat it leads to political tyranny, that it reduces everything to the economic, that it is a form of historical determinism, and so onhe demonstrates in each case what a woeful travesty of Marxs own thought these assumptions are. [An] excellent book.Owen Hatherley, Guardian A short, witty, and highly accessible jaunt through Marxs thought in preparation for the second coming.Frank Barry, Irish Times A lively defense. . . . Eagleton offers a richer, more complex and nuanced picture of the father of modern socialism. . . . Throughout, the author is witty, entertaining, and incisive.Publishers Weekly
TERRY EAGLETON is currently Distinguished Professor of English Literature at the University of Lancaster, England, and Professor of Cultural Theory at the National University of Ireland, Galway. He lives in Dublin.

Reading a book by Terry Eagleton is like watching fireworks. . . . The list of Marxisms shortcomings is common coinage, and Eagleton offers convincing counterarguments.Dennis OBrien, Christian Century

Treason

Translated by Marilyn Hacker

The first English language edition of Hdi Kaddours poetry, beautifully translated by National Book Award winner Marilyn Hacker Hacker has done for Hdi Kaddour what John and Bogdana Carpenter and Michael Hoffman have done respectively for the poetry of Zbigniew Herbert and Durs Grnbein, introducing to an English speaking readership a major poet of his language, brilliantly bringing his poetry into our language, creating through her translations work of undeniable achievement, force, and importance.Lawrence Joseph, author of Into It The fluency and idiomatic precision of Hackers translations is remarkable. . . . We dont completely grasp Kaddours poems in one reading. They slowly reveal their scope and intention as we return to them. And the overall result is of course a portrait of the poet himself: his keen intelligence, his sensory alertness, his humor, his irony, his verbal exuberance, and his uninsistent passion.Alfred Corn
HDI KADDOUR is the author of five books of poems, two novels, and a book of nonfiction. MARILYN HACKER is an award-winning poet, translator, and critic.

The Future of History

John Lukacs
For more than sixty years, John Lukacs has been writing, teaching, and reading about the past. In this inspired volume, he turns his attention to the future. Lukacs reflects on his discipline, eloquently arguing that the writing and teaching of history are literary rather than scientific, comprising knowledge that is neither wholly objective nor subjective. History at its best, he contends, is personal and participatory. Practicing historians and . . . history buffs will want to read this book.David Keymer, Library Journal The Future of History deserves a wide audience. Its eloquent advocacy reminds readers of the nature and priorities of the best historical writing, even as it elucidates the undeniable perils of the present decline.Stanley G. Payne, Historically Speaking I consider John Lukacs one of the outstanding historians of the generation and, indeed, of our time.Jacques Barzun
JOHN LUKACS is the author of some thirty books of history, including the acclaimed Five Days in London and, most recently, The Legacy of the Second World War.

How a Shared Cosmology Could Transform the World Nancy Ellen Abrams and Joel R. Primack
Two cutting-edge thinkers combine their abilities to present a new picture of the universe with critical relevance for our time.

When science reveals to us an opportunity for profound hope-a potential bond among all humans-we must grasp it and celebrate it. The New Universe and the Human Future shows us how the strange and newly discovered nature of our universe can empower us to meet the gravest challenges of our time.Archbishop Desmond Tutu, winner of the Nobel Prize for Peace I found my eyes opened, along with my mind.Deepak Chopra This book is in every sense of the word, a prophetic book. Its message ranks right up there with those of Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Joel.

Charles Darwin is of course best known for The Voyage of the Beagle and The Origin of Species.

A new preface for this edition explores how the history of U.S. agricultural policy helps to explain the world food crisis of 20072008, which saw historic high food prices lead to increased world hunger, food riots, and political instability across the globe. Breaking new ground, Winders original class analysis of U.S. agricultural politics differentiates commodity programs as vectors of privilege and change in farm policy and markets at home and abroad.Philip McMichael, Cornell University

Social Choice and Individual Values

Third Edition

Kenneth J. Arrow Foreword by Eric S. Maskin

Originally published in 1951, Social Choice and Individual Values introduced Arrows Impossibility Theorem and founded the field of social choice theory in economics and political science. This new edition, including a new foreword by Nobel laureate Eric Maskin, reintroduces Arrows seminal book to a new generation of students and researchers. Far beyond a classic, this small book unleashed the ongoing explosion of interest in social choice and voting theory. A halfcentury later, the book remains full of profound insight: its central message, Arrows Theorem, has changed the way we think.Donald G. Saari, author of Decisions and Elections: Explaining the Unexpected

Patti Smith
Camera Solo Edited and with an interview by Susan Lubowsky Talbott
With the assistance of Erin Monroe

Each photograph is like a diary entry of my life.Patti Smith

This captivating selection of 70 intimate black and white photographs conveys Patti Smiths singular experience as a photographer as it relates to many facets of her fascinating life and career. Exquisitely designed and produced, Patti Smith: Camera Solo accompanies the first museum exhibition of the artists photography in the United States. Using either a vintage Land 100 or a Land 250 Polaroid camera, Smith photographs subjects inspired by her connections to poetry and literature as well as pictures that honor the personal effects of those she admires or loves. In the catalogues interview, conducted by Susan Lubowsky Talbott, the artist talks about her respect for the inanimate object as well as the talismanic qualities of things in her life. We see, for instance, a picture of Mapplethorpes slippers or a porcelain cup that belonged to her father, and are drawn into their intimacy and quiet power. Moreover, these images reveal how the camera has proven to be a means for Smith to retreatundisturbedto a room of my own. From her explorations as a visual artist in the 1960s and 70s and her profound influence on the nascent punk rock scene in the late 1970s and 80s, to Just Kids, her National Book Awardwinning memoir of life with her beloved friend Robert Mapplethorpe, Smith continues to make an indelible mark on the American cultural landscape.

Sea Stories

Robert Adams
Over the past decade the renowned photographer Robert Adams (b. 1937) has turned his attention to the woods and shores near his home on the Oregon coast. Sea Stories is a sequence of three visual narratives that follow Adams and his wife, Kerstin, as they walk among alder and maple trees, along the beach to observe the annual migration of shorebirds, and back eastward through meadows and what remains of the inland forest. Featuring many previously unpublished photographs, this book describes the cycles of nature with a new naturalism.

Prairie

Robert Adams

Essay by Eric Paddock

Since the 1970s, photographer Robert Adams (b. 1937) has chronicled the changing landscape of the American West, from the growth of cities like Denver to the seemingly unconquerable openness of the Great Plainsthe subject of Adamss Prairie. The first edition of Prairie, published in 1978, is now a sought-after collectors item; this expanded volume will include all of those original images, along with new photographs selected and sequenced by Adams himself, many of which are being published for the first time. Informed by a dedication to ecological principles, Adamss photographs offer an unsentimental view of the American wildernesspaying tribute both to its natural beauty and to the infrastructure of life on the land: farmhouses, gravel roads, and furrowed fields. This future collectors item, with 45 tritone reproductions, stands as a monument to Adamss work, and a poignant reminder of the quiet but profound ways in which our habitation of the land alters it.

Timothy H. OSullivan

The King Survey Photographs Keith F. Davis and Jane L. Aspinwall

Clarence Kings Survey, undertaken between 1867 and 1872, covered a vast swath of terrain, from the border of California eastward to the edge of the Great Plains. It was the first survey to include a full-time photographerTimothy OSullivanwho produced about 450 finished photographs in large-format and smaller-format stereographs. OSullivans images convey a distinct individual quality of perception, at once direct and laconic, as well as a perfect union of objective fact and personal interpretation. As such, OSullivan remains the most admired, studied, and debated photographer who worked on the great western surveys of the 19th century. This handsome and enlightening book aims to enrich and enlarge our understanding of OSullivans pivotal body of western photographs by emphasizing the idea of context. This ambition encompasses several frames of reference: OSullivans best-known images in relation to his larger body of survey work; the function his photographs served in relation to the surveys overall goals and methodologies; and the King Survey itself as a logical part of a complex and prolonged expeditionary endeavor. The volume also includes an essential catalogue raisonn of OSullivans King Survey work.

Walter De Maria

Trilogies Clare Elliott, Josef Helfenstein, and Neville Wakefield

Walter De Maria (b. 1935) is known for the expansive and perfectly ordered land art and installations he created in the 1970s. From constructing minimalist spare wooden boxes to using the earth itself as a site for, and element of, his sculpture, he created a diverse body of work that is a testament to his complex investigation of the unseen and the relationship between art, the earth, and the universe.

This book introduces an expansive new work, the Bel Air Trilogy (2000 2011), in which the artist combines exacting geometry with the unexpected element of three 1955 gypsy-red Chevrolet Bel Airs. Also included are full-color images of works such as his austere tripartite sculpture Channel Series: Circle, Square, Triangle (1972) and two new monochrome paintings, which complement his large-scale work The Color Men Choose When They Attack The Earth (1968). Accompanying the first major exhibition in the United States to focus exclusively on De Maria, a collection of essays by leading scholars examines the defining features of De Marias workthe conceptual, theatrical, monumental, and minimal.

Zaha Hadid

With an essay by Patrik Schumacher

Pritzker Prizewinning architect Zaha Hadid (b. 1950), known internationally for her radically innovative buildings, has designed furniture and objects since the beginning of her professional practice. This lesser-known aspect of her career takes center stage for the first time in the United States in Zaha Hadid: Form in Motion, which includes furniture, lighting, footwear, jewelry, and other objects that are as experimental in their design as any of her buildings. This eye-opening book uncovers Hadids commercial designs, made between 1995 and 2011, as a means of exploring the interrelationships among architecture, urbanism, and design that define her work. The texts, photographs, and drawings demonstrate Hadids groundbreaking use of technology in digital design and manufacturing, and the methods and processes that propel her revolutionary formal language. The book also records the installation of her designs within a sculptural environment that the artist created for their display at the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

Zoe Strauss

With essays by Peter Barberie, Sally Stein, and Zoe Strauss

With little formal training as a photographer or artist, Zoe Strauss (b. 1970) founded the Philadelphia Public Art Project in 1995 with the aim of exhibiting art in nontraditional venues. Five years later, she began using photography as the most direct means of representing her chosen subjects. Zoe Strauss: 10 Years offers a midcareer assessment of Strausss achievement to date, and the first full account of her celebrated ten-year project, beginning in 2001, to exhibit her photographs under an elevated section of Interstate 95 in Philadelphia. Strausss troubling and sometimes touching images focus primarily on American working-class experience, to convey what she calls an epic narrative that reflects the beauty and struggle of everyday life. Generously illustrated, this book includes nearly 200 photographs135 of them published here for the first timealong with images that document her I-95 exhibitions. With essays by Peter Barberie and Sally Stein, plus a text by the artist herself, a bibliography, and a chronology, this is the most definitive publication to date about this important young artist.

Agnes Martin

With essays by Rhea Anastas, Lynne Cooke, Douglas Crimp, Suzanne Hudson, Jonathan D. Katz, Zoe Leonard, Jaleh Mansoor, Michael Newman, Christina Bryan Rosenberger, and Anne M. Wagner
Gorgeously quiet in color and composition, Agnes Martins paintings have a distinctive grace that sets them apart from those of the Abstract Expressionists of her day and the Minimalist artists she inspired. Martin attributed her grid-based works to metaphysical motivations, lending a serene complexity to her oeuvre that has defied any easy categorization. Perhaps for this reason, critical and scholarly analysis of her paintings has been scarceuntil now. This important new anthology brings together the most current scholarship on Martins paintings by twelve multidisciplinary essayists who consider various aspects of the artists four-decade career. Organized by Dia Art Foundation, whose extensive holdings of Martins paintings and ambitions to support in-depth research on the works are unparalleled, the publication brings renewed focus and energy to Martins career and her contributions to the art historical narrative.

Sarah Howgate
Essay and interviews with Lucian Freud by Michael Auping; with a contribution by John Richardson

For me, the paint is the person. Lucian Freud

Portraits were central to the work of Lucian Freud (19222011). Working only from life, the artist claimed, I could never put anything into a picture that wasnt actually there in front of me. This major retrospective catalogue surveys Freuds portraits across the seven decades of his career. Featuring the finest portraits from public and private collections around the world, the book explores the stylistic development and remarkable technical virtuosity of an artist regarded as one of the most innovative figurative painters the medium has known. Freuds chosen subjects were often his intimatesfamily members, friends, and artistic colleagues such as Frank Auerbach, Francis Bacon, Leigh Bowery, and David Hockney. Freud was a private man who rarely gave interviews, and his thoughts on the complex relationship between artist and sitter and the challenges of painting nudes and self-portraits are published here for the first time, documented in a series of interviews with Michael Auping, conducted between May 2009 and January 2011. An illustrated chronology of the artists life provides fascinating insights into Freuds background as a grandson of Sigmund Freud, and his unorthodox artistic education. An essential book for every personal art library, this lavishly illustrated volume celebrates the work and career of an artist who overturned traditional portraiture and offered a new approach to figurative art.

The Achievement of Fame, 14751534 Michael Hirst

This remarkable book is the first of two volumes in what will be the definitive modern biography of Michelangelo. An illuminating study of Michelangelos extraordinary career, it follows the artist from his apprenticeship in Ghirlandaios workshop to his final move to Rome in 1534, when, at the age of 59, he left behind his native Florence, never to return. During these years he created such outstanding works as the marble Piet, the giant marble David, commissioned for the cathedral in Florence, the Sistine Ceiling frescoes, and the new sacristy and library for the Medici family at San Lorenzo. He began the monumental tomb for Pope Julius II in Rome, and he became one of the most sought-after artists of the early 16th century. Written by the leading Michelangelo scholar, this prodigiously informative account benefits from recent archival discoveries and restorations, and is enriched by material from the long-awaited editions of the artists correspondence and artistic contracts. The wealth of new information enables new light to be shed on the genesis of Michelangelos works in sculpture, painting, and architecture, and on his complex psychological relations with his family, friends, and powerful patrons.

What Clothes Reveal

The Language of Clothing in Colonial and Federal America Linda Baumgarten

Paintings of upper-class men and women tell an important part of the history of costumes, but surviving garments themselves reveal even more. Every crease, stitch, and stain in a piece of clothing supplies information about its wearer and its era. This stunning book features 18th- and early-19th-century garments from the premier collection of the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation. Illustrated with more than 300 color photographs, including many details and back views, the book treats not only elegant, high-style clothing in colonial America but also garments for everyday and work, the clothing of slaves, and maternity and nursing apparel. Drawing on contemporary written descriptions and on actual costumes of the period, the book analyzes what Americans in the 18th century considered fashionable and attractive and how they used clothing to assert status or to identify occupations. The book also examines the myths and meanings of clothing in British and American society, clothing for the entire lifecycle, and a history of clothing alteration. Informative sidebars on a variety of fascinating topics complete the volume.

The Jewelry and Metalwork of Marie Zimmermann

Deborah Dependahl Waters, Joseph Cunningham, and Bruce Barnes
A pioneering study of one of the most remarkable makers of jewelry and metalwork in early-20th-century America
A true eclectic in her personal life, her professional pursuits, and her creative expression, Marie Zimmermann has proven an elusive character for historians. But her skill as a designer and prodigious output of extraordinary jewelry and metalwork in the early 20th century have routinely caught people by surprise. At its best, Zimmermanns work is beguiling and exhilarating, exploring a wide range of innovative approaches to pattern, material, and surface. The diversity of her oeuvre, including work in gold, silver, bronze, copper, and iron, is as astonishing as the boldness of the life she led. This book gathers for the first time the story of Zimmermanns life and work and puts a spotlight on one of the most singular makers of metalwork active in early-20th-century America. Essays by leading scholars in the decorative arts offer extensive new research on Zimmermann and her work, while more than 500 gorgeous full-color images show the breadth and novelty of her design practice.

Transformations in Native American Art Karen Kramer Russell with Janet Catherine Berlo, Bruce Bernstein, Joe D. Horse Capture, Jessica L. Horton, and Paul Chaat Smith
Public perception of Native American art and culture has often been derived from misunderstandings and misinterpretations, and from images promulgated by popular culture. Typically, Native Americans are grouped as a whole and their art and culture considered part of the past rather than widely present. Shapeshifting challenges these assumptions by focusing on the objects as art rather than cultural or anthropological artifacts and on the multivalent creativity of Native American artists. The approach highlights the inventive contemporaneity that existed in all periods and continues today. More than 75 works in a wide range of media and scale are organized into four thematic groups: changingexpanding the imagination; knowingexpressing worldview; locatingexploring identity and place; and voicingengaging the individual. The result is a paradigm shift in understanding Native American art.

Helen Molesworth

Art, Love, and Politics in the 1980s

With essays by Johanna Burton, William Horrigan, Elisabeth Lebovici, Kobena Mercer, Sarah Schulman, and Frazer Ward

A fascinating examination of the cultural and political forces that shaped the art of a tumultuous decade
Art of the 1980s oscillated between radical and conservative, capricious and political, socially engaged and art historically aware. This fascinating book chronicles canonical as well as nearly forgotten works of the 1980s, arguing that what has often been dismissed as cynical or ironic should be viewed as a struggle on the part of artists to articulate their needs and desires in an increasingly commodified world. The major developments of the decadethe rise of the commercial art market, the politicization of the AIDS crisis, the increased visibility of women and gay artists and artists of color, and the ascension of new mediaare illuminated in works by Sophie Calle, Nan Goldin, Mike Kelley, Jeff Koons, Sherrie Levine, and Lorna Simpson, among others. Essays by leading scholars provide unique perspectives on the decades competing factions and seemingly contradictory elements, from counterculture to the mainstream, radicalism to democracy and historical awareness, conservatism to feminist politics. Complete with critical texts on each work, This Will Have Been brings into focus the full impact of the art, artists, and political and cultural ruptures of this paradigm-shifting decade. More than 200 fullcolor reproductions of works in a range of media, including drawing, painting, photography, and sculpture, illustrate this ambitious guide to a period of artistic transformation.

This commemorative book traces the creation of Odyssey, a monumental work by internationally acclaimed artist Cai Guo-Qiang (b. 1957). Best known for his innovative explosion projects, Cai arranged, then ignited, gunpowder to produce a massive Chinese-style landscape across forty-two wood panels, which are now permanently installed at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. Cai produced Odyssey with the help of more than one hundred volunteers over five days in October 2010. Photographs documenting the process demonstrate Cais working methods and the level of community involvement. Accompanying essays analyze Odyssey as a singular work of art, as a portal to the gallery and its other artworks, and as a collaboration among the artist, museum, and communities in Houston. Moreover, this breathtaking work offers a fresh way for viewers to encounter ancient and contemporary Chinese art.

Baby Ikki at the Museum

Michael Smith
Michael Smith (b. 1951) is known for his groundbreaking work in performance art as well as his immersive mixed media installations. Since 1979, the majority of his work has centered on his extraordinarily prescient and sympathetic character, Mike. Smiths other recurring performance persona is Baby Ikki, whose bizarre and precipitous infancy is marked by conspicuous facial hair, oversized diapers, and undersized sunglasses. Formatted and designed like a childrens board book, Baby Ikki at the Museum features the eighteen-month-old character posing in front of works of art in the Whitney Museum of American Art. He acts as a wide-eyed explorer wandering in a new world, examining and responding to works in the Museums collection by pointing, staring, or offering quizzical looks. Lacking judgment, consideration, and caution, Baby Ikki possesses an abundance of curiosity and has an insatiable appetite for attention, even when posing with priceless works of art. Providing an entirely new angle from which to view a premier art institution, the photographs in this book are at times comedic and at others unsettling for their irreverence and perceptiveness.
MICHAEL SMITH is a performance, video, and installation artist whose work has been exhibited extensively since the 1970s.

With an essay be Yve-Alain Bois and an interview between John Baldessari and Christopher Knight

The highly anticipated first volume of the complete catalogue of works by John Baldessari
The pioneering conceptual artist John Baldessari (b. 1931) began his career as a painter in the 1950s, but in the subsequent decades he expanded his practice in a new and groundbreaking direction by juxtaposing texts with found photography or appropriated images. These texts questioned the nature of art and the artviewing experience, suggesting new meanings for the images they accompanied. This interaction of words and images remained a critical aspect of Baldessaris work, even as he branched into other media, such as site-specific installations, drawings, video, sculpture, prints, and multiples. The first of a projected four-volume set, this lavishly illustrated book features about 500 works and chronicles an important shift in Baldessaris thinking during these formative years. Included are such landmark works as the Cremation Project (1970), where Baldessari incinerated the body of work he had made between the years 1953 and 1966. The ashes of the cremated works were then baked into cookies, and the rest sealed in a book-shaped urn, which he then presented along with a plaque announcing the life and death dates. Baldessaris work and teaching have been greatly influential on a subsequent generation of artists. The book features an essay by Yve-Alain Bois considering Baldessaris ethos as a generator of his artistic practice. Also included are an interview with Christopher Knight and a detailed chronology of the artists life and work.

An exciting showcase of innovative works by contemporary American artists

Since its introduction in 1932, the Whitney Biennial the Museums signature exhibition and a highly anticipated event in the art worldhas charted new developments in contemporary art. Inaugurated by Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney in 1932, these biennial exhibitions have demonstrated the museums commitment to supporting the development of 20th- and 21st-century American art. The 2012 Biennial features works by approximately 50 artists working in a variety of media, including painting, sculpture, photography, film, video, dance, and performance. Elisabeth Sussman (co-organizer of the influential, politically provocative 1993 Whitney Biennial) and Jay Sanders provide an insightful joint essay, and a group of art historians and critics contribute entries on common themes and ideas from the represented artists techniques and influences. In addition, a significant portion of the catalogue is devoted to original contributions from each of the participating artists, in a unique effort to provide a more experiential understanding of the exhibition.

Van Gogh
Up Close Edited by Cornelia Homburg
An entirely new perspective on the genius of Van Gogh, revealing for the first time the artists approach to nature through his innovative use of the close-up view
This sumptuously illustrated book offers a completely new way of looking at the art of Vincent van Gogh, by exploring the artists approach to nature through his innovative use of the close-up view. Focusing on the last years of the artists careerfrom 1886 until his death in July 1890an international team of leading scholars in the field examines Van Goghs radical approach to the close-up and sets it in the context of contemporary and historical references, such as his hitherto unrecognized use of photography and his fascination with the Old Masters and with Japanese art and culture. One hundred key paintings dating from his arrival in Paris in 1886 to the end of his career show how Van Gogh experimented with unusual visual angles and the decorative use of color, cropping, and the flattening of his compositions. In some paintings he zoomed in on a tuft of grass or a single budding iris, while depicting shifting views of a field or garden in others. Van Gogh: Up Close not only reveals how these paintings became the most radical and innovative in the artists body of work but also demonstrates that, far from being a spontaneous or undisciplined artist, Van Gogh was well aware of the history of art and was highly conscious of his efforts to break new ground with his work.

Princes and Painters in Mughal Delhi, 17071857

Edited by William Dalrymple and Yuthika Sharma

Between the years 1707 and 1857, the cultural center of Delhi in North India was the locus of a dramatic shift of power with the decline of the Mughal Empire and the rise of the British Raj. This critical transitional period altered Indian culture, politics, and art, and brought unprecedented artistic innovation and experimentation. The artistic flowering of this time is evident in jewel-like portraits, miniature paintings, striking panoramas, and exquisite decorative arts crafted for Mughal emperors and European residents alike. Sumptuous color illustrations of such works illuminate the pages of this book, painting a vivid portrait of this important city and its art, artists, and patrons. Masterworks by major Mughal artists, such as Nidha Mal and Ghulam Ali Khan, and works by non-Mughal artists demonstrate the dynamic interplay of artistic production at this time. This largely overlooked period is explored in thought-provoking essays by a panel of distinguished scholars of Indian art, history, and literature to present an engaging look at this dynamic artistic culture in the midst of rapid change.

F. Holland Day in Artistic Photography Trevor Fairbrother

Boston photographer Fred Holland Day (18641933) first distinguished himself in literary circlesas a critic, bibliophile, and co-founder of the progressive publishing firm Copeland and Daybefore turning to photography in the 1880s. By the turn of the century, he had established an international reputation as a leader in the Pictorialist movement, striving to gain acceptance for photography as a fine art. Days work ranged from intimate portraits of friends and fellow artists, to elaborate, costume-driven self-portraiture, including his Jesus Christ series, photographed in rural settings near his home in Norwood, Massachusetts. Especially illuminating of Days dual role as artist and advocate are the 50 plus images, reprised here, from a 1902 exhibition, in which Day posed for leaders in the newer photographic methods to demonstrate that the camera could be as expressive and sensitive an artistic tool as the brush or the etchers needle. Making a Presence offers a dynamic composite portrait of an iconoclastic, independent artist, and of a man exquisitely expressive of his fin-de-sicle milieu.
TREVOR FAIRBROTHER is an independent scholar and curator, whose previous books include Painting Summer in New England, John Singer Sargent: The Sensualist, and Ipswich Days: Arthur Wesley Dow and His Hometown, all from Yale University Press.

Impressionism and Full-Length Painting Colin B. Bailey

Magnificent full-length impressionist paintings by Renoir capture the glamorous spirit and refined milieu of Belle poque Paris

Throughout his long working life, Pierre-Auguste Renoir (18411919) produced large-format portraits and subject pictures. From the mid-1870s to the mid1880sthe decade of Impressionismhis vertical, grand-scale canvases were among the artists most daring and ambitious presentations of contemporary life and fashion. Today they rank among the masterpieces of Impressionism. This stunning book offers fresh insights into Renoirs complex ambitions as a young artist, when he submitted works to both the avant-garde impressionist exhibitions and the official Salon. While painting in the new impressionist style, Renoir remained committed to the full-length format, which was eschewed by most of his fellow impressionists as too traditional. This format afforded Renoir the opportunity to devote himself to the heroic painting of everyday life, and also to linger on the finest details of his figures fashionable costumes and accessories. Ten iconic canvases display the rich variety of this artists painterly technique. They reveal the sheer virtuosity of his brushwork in creating silk, lace, mink, and taffeta for shimmering ball gowns, sumptuous furs, chic Parisian day dresses, and glamorous theatrical costumes. These paintings capture the faces and fashions of Renoirs Paris. Extensively illustrated, the book draws upon contemporary criticism, literature, and archival documents to explore the motivation behind Renoirs full-length figure paintings, and technical studies of the canvases shed new light on the artists working methods.

Age of Transition
With Brandie Ratliff

Edited by Helen C. Evans

A groundbreaking investigation of the extraordinary art and material culture of the southern provinces of the Byzantine Empire during the momentous 7th to 9th century
This magnificent volume explores the epochal transformations and unexpected continuities in the Byzantine Empire from the 7th to the 9th century. At the beginning of the 7th century, the Empires southern provinces, the vibrant, diverse areas of North Africa and the eastern Mediterranean, were at the crossroads of exchanges reaching from Spain to China. These regions experienced historic upheavals when their Christian and Jewish communities encountered the emerging Islamic world, and by the 9th century, an unprecedented crossfertilization of cultures had taken place. This extraordinary age is brought vividly to life in insightful contributions by leading international scholars, accompanied by sumptuous illustrations of the periods most notable arts and artifacts. Resplendent images of authority, religion, and tradeembodied in precious metals, brilliant textiles, fine ivories, elaborate mosaics, manuscripts, and icons, many of them never before publishedhighlight the dynamic dialogue between the rich array of Byzantine styles and the newly forming Islamic aesthetic. With its masterful exploration of two centuries that would shape the emerging medieval world, this illuminating publication provides a unique interpretation of a period that still resonates today.

Construction and Destruction in Photography and Collage Yasufumi Nakamori, with Graham Bader
From the time of its invention, photography has enabled artists not only to capture the world around them but also to create worlds of their own. Utopia/Dystopia investigates how artists from the late 19th century to the present have used photographic fragments or techniques to represent political, social, or cultural states of utopia or dystopia. Artists have employed a number of strategies to this end, such as cutting, fragmenting, and puncturing images as well as reassembling those culled from ready-made materials or giving a subject multiple exposures. The resulting photographs, photocollages, photomontages, and other creations question the validity of seamless pictorial images, and attempt to dismantle the notion of photography as an objective medium. This publication features approximately forty-five exemplary works by artists such as Herbert Bayer, John Heartfield, Hannah Hch, Arata Isozaki, El Lissitzky, Carter Mull, Lszl Moholy-Nagy, Vik Muniz, Man Ray, Okanoue Toshiko, and many others. Also included are essays that offer new ways of thinking about photographys uses and implications.

Surrealism under Pressure, 19381953 Matthew S. Witkovsky and Jindrich Toman

Czech poet and photographer Jindr ich Heisler (19141953) joined the Czech Surrealist Group in 1938, just as Nazi occupation of the country was driving the movement and Czech artists underground. Heisler published his first book of poetry a year later. In his brief and courageous careerHeisler died suddenly at the age of thirty-eighthe produced some of the most remarkable assemblage work of the Surrealist movement, including what is arguably the single-most important photobook produced in the 20th century, From the Strongholds of Sleep (194041). This gorgeously illustrated volumewith eighty color images of Heislers assemblage piecesintroduces English-speaking audiences to his work, translating many of his writings for the first time and offering in-depth analysis of his postwar years in Paris in the company of Andr Breton, Benjamin Pret, the illustrator Toyen, and other major figures of the Surrealist movement.

Dawn of Egyptian Art

Diana Patch
Egyptian art from the Pharaonic era is characterized by colossal sphinxes, elaborately decorated coffins, hieroglyphs, and beautifully modeled reliefs. Less well-known, but equally impressive, are the rare and ancient images of people, animals, and landscapes from the pre-Pharaonic era, the period that preceded and directly influenced these iconic forms of artistic expression. With lavish illustrations of more than 170 fascinating objects created from about 4000 to 2650 BC, Dawn of Egyptian Art presents the origins of these art forms and iconography that remained in use for centuries. Comprehensive texts explore the origins and early development of the culture of ancient Egypt while discussing the representation of the self and the universe, the relationship between image and writing, and the early Egyptians evolving view of how the world worked.

Turner Inspired

With contributions by Philippa Simpson, Alan Crookham, and Nicola Moorby

The English Romantic artist Joseph Mallord William Turner (17751851) was hailed as the painter of light for his brilliantly colored landscapes and seascapes. He drew much influence from the French painter Claude Lorrain (c. 1604/5?1682), who was a vital force in Turners artistic practice from his formative years until the end of his working life. So great was Claudes influence that Turner stipulated in his will that his works hang alongside Claudes in the National Gallery, London. This book examines the ways in which Turner consistently strove to confront Claudes achievement and legacy. He had encountered Claudes works in salerooms and in the collections of his aristocratic patrons, and applied what he had learned to the British countryside, producing views of the Thames valley that transform it into an idyllic pastoral scene reminiscent of the Roman Campagna. For the balance of his career, Turner continued to pit himself against Claude, paying homage even as he continually sought to go beyond the accomplishments of his master.

On Fashion Harold Koda and Andrew Bolton
A stunning showcase of two of fashions most important women designers, who are linked by a number of striking parallels
Although separated by time, Miuccia Prada and Elsa Schiaparelliboth Italian, both feministsshare striking affinities in terms of their design strategies and fashion manifestoes. Presented as an intimate conversation, Schiaparelli and Prada: On Fashion aims to tease out formal and conceptual similarities between the two designers. Striking photographs and insightful texts illustrate the parallels between the two, including their preferences for interesting textiles and prints, eccentric color palettes, and a bold and playful approach to styling and accessories. Schiaparelli, in the 1920s through 50s, and Prada, from the late 1980s to today, exploited the narrative possibilities of prints, sought out unconventional textiles, played with ideas of good and bad taste, and manipulated scale for surrealistic outcomes. Contemporary art plays a major role in the work of these inventive womenSchiaparelli in her famous collaborations with Dali and Cocteau, and Prada via her Fondazione Prada. Blending the historic with the contemporary, the catalogue brings the masterworks of both designers together into a grand conversation between the most important women fashion designers to ever emerge from Italy.

Berenice Abbott
Galle Morel
An exemplary study of the career of photographer Berenice Abbott that reveals the astonishing range of her artistic, documentary, and scientific production
The American photographer Berenice Abbott (1898 1991) is known best for her documentation of New York in the 1930s and for her efforts to gain recognition for the work of Eugne Atget in both Europe and the United States. This attractive book features 120 photographs and a series of rarely seen documents (including letters, book layouts, and periodicals), illuminating the three major periods of Abbotts career: her early work in the United States and Paris during the 1920s; her project Changing New York (193539), created for the Federal Art Project; and her scientific pictures made between 1939 and 1961. By detailing Abbotts influences and production both home and abroad, Berenice Abbott underscores the photographers role as one of the 20th centurys most remarkable artists. Abbott left the United States in 1921 to study sculpture in Paris, where she was hired by Man Ray in 1923 to be his assistant. She took to photography immediately and by 1926 had set up her own studio. She became famous for her photographs showing bohemian artistic and intellectual life in the city, but in 1929 she returned to the United States and set up a new studio. Her bestknown and most influential work, Changing New York, represented both a vast exercise in recording the architecture and urban life of New York and an intensely personal artistic project. Her straightforward method of photography led to her being employed full-time in the 1950s by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston to produce pictures illustrating the laws of physics.

Edouard Vuillard

An exploration of the Post-Impressionist masters life and work in the glittering milieu of the Parisian beau monde
In many of Edouard Vuillards (18681940) most famous paintings, figures are nestled in intimate settings among bold patterns and colors. As the viewers eye adjusts to the complexity of the scene, the artists world opens up. At a young age, Vuillard was one of a group of avant-garde painters in Paris who favored rich palettes and dreamlike imagery. He was equally a member of the literary and theatrical circles that included writers like Marcel Proust and Stphane Mallarm. As his career progressed into the new century, he entered the rarefied society of upper-class French familiesmany of them Jewishwho collected the new art, published the new poetry, and wrote the new criticism. This beautifully illustrated book examines the master artists work in the context of a unique circle of friends and patrons between the turn of the 20th century and World War II. Essays by leading scholars explore the artists relationship with key members of this glamorous social circle, as well as the connections between Vuillard and Proust, two of the worlds great observers of a world now lost. A fascinating exploration of artistic culture in Paris before the war, Edouard Vuillard establishes the artist as one of the masters of the modern portrait.

Fashioning the Object

Bless, Boudicca, and Sandra Backlund Zo Ryan

The newest volume in the Art Institute of Chicagos successful A+D series, Fashioning the Object invites readers to visit three of the most visionary design studios at work today: Bless, Boudicca, and Sandra Backlund. Fiercely independent and far-reaching in their influences, these young designers from Berlin, London, Paris, and Stockholm are producing fashion objects that straddle the line between traditional craft and cuttingedge technique, both in their use of materials and in the promotion of their brands. Zo Ryan establishes the context for understanding the exciting departures these design houses represent, as the young creators draw inspiration from an array of other disciplines, including architecture, performance, film, and fine art. From Blesss numbered editions, to Boudiccas graffiti-can perfume, to Backlunds ready-to-wear pieces of knitted copper, these designers adapt storied objects to new uses and break old conventions, promulgating their ideas in playful, groundbreaking ways.
ZO RYAN is the Art Institute of Chicagos Chair and John H. Bryan Curator of Architecture and Design. Her previous books include Bertrand Goldberg: Architecture of Invention; Hyperlinks; Graphic Thought Facility; and Konstantin Grcic (all Yale).

Dawoud Bey

With an essay by Sharifa Rhodes-Pitts

Harlem U.S.A. Edited by Matthew S. Witkovsky

In 1979, when African-American photographer Dawoud Bey showed twenty-five photographs at the Studio Museum in Harlem under the heading Harlem U.S.A., the exhibition offered a young artists vision of a moment in the neighborhoods life. Published here as a complete set for the first time, Dawoud Bey: Harlem U.S.A. also includes five previously unpublished photographs from the same period. Beys vintage images are given new context in an essay by emerging African-American writer Sharifa Rhodes-Pitts, who undertook her own fascinating study of Harlem in 2011. Bey, who grew up in Queens with family roots in Harlem, has become one of most widely acclaimed portraitists on the contemporary scene. This handsome book, with faithful duotone reproductions, provides a wonderful opportunity to revisit a classic portfolio of images that still resonates in todays culture.

Renoir in the Barnes Foundation

Martha Lucy and John House
A spectacular survey of the worlds most comprehensive collection of works by the Impressionist master Renoir
The Barnes Foundation is home to the worlds largest collection of paintings by Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841 1919). Dr. Albert C. Barnes, a Philadelphia scientist who made his fortune in pharmaceuticals, established the Foundation in 1922 in Merion, Pennsylvania, as an educational institution devoted to the appreciation of the fine arts. A passionate supporter of European modernism, Barnes built a collection that was virtually unrivaled, with massive holdings by Paul Czanne, Henri Matisse, and Pablo Picasso. It was Renoir that Barnes admired above all other artists, however; he thought of him as a kind of god. Barnes collected Renoir tenaciously, amassing 181 works by the painter between 1912 and 1942, and all of these are included in this lavishly illustrated book. Renoir in the Barnes Foundation tells the fascinating story of Barness obsession with the Impressionist masters late works, while offering illuminating new scholarship on the works themselves. Authors Martha Lucy and John House look closely at the key paintings in the collection, placing them in the wider contexts of contemporary artistic, aesthetic, and theoretical debates. The first volume to publish the entirety of Barness astonishing Renoir collection, Renoir in the Barnes Foundation is also an engaging study of the artists criticaland often contestedrole in the development of modern art.

A Retrospective

Roy Lichtenstein
James Rondeau and Sheena Wagstaff
With contributions by Clare Bell, Yve-Alain Bois, Iria Candela, Harry Cooper, Sara Doris, Chrissie Iles, James Lawrence, and Stephen Little

The first assessment of the full scope and breadth of Roy Lichtensteins career, offering a revelatory understanding of this foremost Pop artists work
The most iconic works of Roy Lichtenstein (19231997) are widely known, reproduced, copied, and even parodied. However, the true diversity and complexity of his oeuvre is little understood, and the full scope of his career is largely absent from the existing literature. Presenting over 130 paintings and sculptures, as well as over thirty seldom- or never-before-seen drawings and collages, this book examines all periods in Lichtensteins career, going well beyond his brushstrokes and the classic Pop romance and war cartoon paintings that made him famous. Roy Lichtenstein: A Retrospective features exciting new scholarship by an international team of distinguished curators, critics, and art historians. Essays by YveAlain Bois, Chrissie Iles, and Stephen Little, among others, give special consideration to Lichtensteins historical influences, from Picasso and Cubism through Surrealism, Futurism, and British Pop. Contributions by James Rondeau and Sheena Wagstaff evaluate the artists abstract work and late nudes. Complemented by photographs of the artist and his seminal exhibitions, the essays examine the various styles and subjects featured in paintings created throughout his lifetime. The inclusion of a complete chronology of Lichtensteins life and workcompiled by Clare Bell of the Lichtenstein Foundationmakes this retrospective the most authoritative publication on the artist since his death in 1997.

Pamela McClusky

Australian Aboriginal Art

A fascinating look at Australian Aboriginal art over the past four decades, highlighting millennia-old artistic traditions
Australian Aboriginal art is the longest continuous art tradition in the world, spanning over 50,000 years. Ancestral Modern puts a modern face on the tradition, celebrating the past 40 years of contemporary indigenous art, which has experienced a renaissance since 1970. Featuring more than 100 paintings and sculptures in a variety of media, this book provides a fascinating revision of many commonly held beliefs about the art form. Aboriginal artwork is often said to induce a sense of intellectual vertigo, due to its expansive interpretations and methods of representation. The bold patterns and striking colors lend comparisons to abstract expressionist or minimal art, but as this book shows, the imagery is more deeply narrative and often more literal than previously thought, depicting landscapes, still lifes, historical events both literal and mythic, ceremonies, portraits, and even laws. Works of art are shown alongside photographs of the actual landscapes and animals depicted, providing important visual context for understanding an art form that is at once ancient and contemporary. Also included are detailed biographies of many leading contemporary artists, including Emily Kame Kngwarreye, John Mawurndjul, and Rover Thomas.

The Complete Paintings, Volume VII

John Singer Sargent: Figures and Landscapes, 19001907

Richard Ormond and Elaine Kilmurray
A beautifully illustrated collection of landscape paintings, whose varied subjects and composition styles evoke the artists keen sense of modernity
From 1900 to 1907, John Singer Sargent (18561925) traveled considerably, visiting the Alps, Italy, Spain, Norway, and Palestine. In Palestine in 1905, he painted a significant group of oils and watercolors as well as a group of studies of the Bedouin. It was during this burst of artistic production that he painted The Mountains of Moab (Tate Gallery, London), which was the first pure landscape he ever exhibited (Royal Academy, 1906). In Italy and Spain, Sargent painted parks, gardens, fountains, and statues, subjects that reveal his taste for the high style of Renaissance and Mannerist art and for the romantic grandeur of deserted spaces. As evidenced by the works in this new volume, Sargent reinvented himself as a landscape painter during his travels. Expressing a finely developed sense of modernity, he selected quirky angles of vision and used a range of compositional strategiescompression, foreshortening, abrupt croppings, and receding perspectivesin a manner that is quasi-photographic. He exploited the material qualities of pigment, and the impasto is often so thickly applied that figure and landscape seem to dissolve together creating rich, near abstract surface patterns. The restless handling and dynamic compositional rhythms act in creative tension with the artists more traditional subject matter, generating notions of instability and ambiguity that are distinctly modern in character.
RICHARD ORMOND is a Sargent scholar and independent art historian. He is a great-nephew of John Singer Sargent. ELAINE KILMURRAY is coauthor and research director of the John Singer Sargent catalogue raisonn project.

Isabella and Leonardo

The Artistic Relationship between Isabella dEste and Leonardo da Vinci Francis Ames-Lewis
Isabella dEste, the marchioness of Mantua, was a collector of antiquities, a patron of art, and one of the most vivid personalities of the Italian Renaissance. Her artistic relationship with Leonardo da Vinci (14521519) is charted through the letters that they exchanged over the course of about six years. Beginning in late 1499, Leonardo spent several months in Mantua, where he met Isabella and produced a finished portrait drawing of her. In the years that followed, the marchioness wrote to the artist to ask him to undertake other paintings and projects. Though little came of these requests, da Vinci did produce a drawing of some classical hard-stone vases to assist her search for collectible antiques and also started work on a painting of Christ as a twelve-year-old boy at her request. The story of their relationship is explored in depth for the first time in Isabella and Leonardo. This illuminating story raises interesting and important questions about relationships between artists and patrons, and about women as art patrons at the beginning of the 16th century.

Sharon Hayes
Chrissie Iles
In her performances, videos, and installations, Sharon Hayes (b. 1970) explores the nexus between politics, history, speech, and desire. Her works modify or appropriate the language and tools of political dissent, creating unexpected affinities between important historical events and the present. Highlighted in this volume is the video installation Symbionese Liberation Army (SLA) Screeds #13, 16, 20 & 29 (2003)a work in which Hayes memorized the famous taped speeches by Patty Hearst and her kidnappers, the leftist radical group the Symbionese Liberation Army, and then reads them to an audience who corrects her mistakes. It is in these slippages between memory and history that the meaning of Hayess work resides. This book also includes a group of new site-specific works that addresses the Whitneys role in the historic development of process-based, performative art and its engagement with politics that took place in the late 1960s and early 1970s. This book also features original contributions from Hayes that provide insight into the complex motivations and development of her projects. Scholarship by Chrissie Iles contextualizes Hayess work in the history of political discourse by examining and explaining her sources of inspiration. Beautiful images of projects spanning the artists career are presented in conjunction with photographs and texts from these historical events.

Art at the Crossroads of the World Edited by Deborah Cullen and Elvis Fuentes
The first book to explore the entire range of modern and contemporary art of the Caribbean
Unprecedented in scope, this beautiful book offers an authoritative examination of the modern history of the Caribbean through its artistic culture. Featuring 500 color illustrations of artworks from the late 18th through the 21st century, the book explores modern and contemporary art, ranging from the Haitian revolution to the present. Acknowledging both the individuality of each island, the richness of the coastal regions, and the reach of the Diaspora, Caribbean looks at the vital visual and cultural links that exist among these diverse constituencies. The authors examine how the Caribbean has been imagined and pictured, and the role of art in the development of national identity. Essays by leading scholars cover such topics as the interconnections between Caribbean artistic production to its colonial contexts; between various generations of artists; and between the so-called high and low arts and religion, music, and carnival celebrations. Primary source documents crucial to understanding the region provide an important complement. Edited by Deborah Cullen and Elvis Fuentes, and featuring essays by Katherine Manthorne, Mari Carmen Ramrez, Lowery Stokes Sims, and Edward J. Sullivan, among many others, this book will serve as the definitive volume on Caribbean visual culture for many decades to come.

Gauguin, Czanne, Matisse: Arcadia 1900

Edited by Joseph J. Rishel
With essays by Stephanie DAlessandro, Charles Dempsey, Tanja Pirsig-Marshall, Joseph J. Rishel, and George T. M. Shackelford

A trio of masterpieces by Gauguin, Czanne, and Matisse are joined by works by other major artists in this exploration of the enduring vitality of the theme of Arcadia
The notion of a golden age set in an earthly paradise has long kindled the human imagination. Virgil envisioned such a place of bucolic pleasureserotic and unsullied, sometimes shadowed by blunted desires and doubtsin his Eclogues, set in the valley of Arcadia in ancient Greece. His poems defined for Western art and literature a theme that continues to this day. Their resonance as a foundation for European painters around 1900 is the subject of this beautifully illustrated catalogue, which focuses on three monumental paintingsPaul Gauguins Where Do We Come From? What Are We? Where Are We Going? (189798), Paul Czannes The Large Bathers (1906), and Henri Matisses Bathers by a River (190910, 1913, and 191617). Other masterpieces by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot, Nicolas Poussin, and Pierre Puvis de Chavannes establish the high value given to Arcadia in the history of French painting. These are joined by major works by Henri Edmond Cross, Robert Delaunay, Andr Derain, Pablo Picasso, Henri Rousseau, and Paul Signac, as well as paintings by Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Franz Marc, and Natalia Goncharova to suggest the vitality of this subject outside the canonical French definitions. Distinguished scholars place these artists within the larger context of this inventive period in art history.

Tony Cragg

Sculptures and Drawings Patrick Elliott

The British artist Tony Cragg (b. 1949), winner of the 1988 Turner Prize, is one of todays most celebrated and popular sculptors. Before studying art, he worked as a laboratory technician, and his continuing interest in science has had an enormous influence on his practice. In his early sculptural works, he often utilized everyday objects, assembling or stacking them to generate engaging new forms. In recent years, he has turned to an astonishing variety of more traditional materials, such as wood, bronze, glass, plaster, fiberglass, and plastics. As a self-proclaimed absolute materialist, Cragg approaches these materials with a degree of scientific curiosity, responding to their various properties to produce his expressive sculptures. This retrospective survey, made in consultation with the artist, focuses on Craggs artistic output of the last ten years. Color illustrations demonstrate the diverse styles and materials that he employed during this time, and the book also includes earlier works and his alluring, little-known watercolors. This eye-opening book offers an up-to-date look at this respected contemporary artist.

Elizabeth Blackadder
Philip Long
Elizabeth Blackadder (b. 1931) has a gift for observing the world around her and re-creating it in her own particular style. Her intriguing paintings of plants, animals, landscapes, and still lifes have captivated viewers well beyond her native Scotland. The first woman artist to be elected to both the Royal Academy of Arts and the Royal Scottish Academy, Blackadder has explored a variety of artistic media, including drawing, oil painting, watercolors, and printmaking. Her subjects are drawn from close observation of her surroundings, such as the details of a domestic interior, the bright-hued petals of a tulip, or a view captured from her travels abroad. She sees the underlying structure, design, and color harmony in both the exotic and the everyday. Blackadders works spring to life on the pages of this catalogue, which tells the fascinating story of her career across the past sixty years, from her early days as a student at Edinburgh College of Art, to her friendships with Scottish painters William George Gillies, William MacTaggart, and Anne Redpath, to her most recent work.

Tradition and Invention in Architecture

Conversations and Essays Robert A. M. Stern
Among practicing architects today, perhaps only Robert A. M. Stern once contemplated a career as a historian, an interest that has informed both his built work and his writings. Tradition and Invention in Architecture brings together 26 of Sterns essays and conversations from the past five decades. Topics range from modern classicism, American housing, gardens, and New York City to the work of Norman Foster, Louis Kahn, Charles Moore, and Robert Moses. Reminders of Sterns own broad career in architecture are found in his thoughts on his PBS television series Pride of Place, his discussion of the planning of Seaside and Celebration, Florida, and his view on institutional branding through architecture. Known as much for his candor as for his profound knowledge of American architecture, Sterns observations on the architecture of his time are equally valuable. As he writes, For an architect, writing is one way of reconsidering history while working in the presentalways in search of the best from the past and the present, which allows us to invent for the future.

Staging Fashion, 18801920

Jane Hading, Lily Elsie, Billie Burke Edited by Michele Majer

Although Jane Hading (18591940), Lily Elsie (18861962), and Billie Burke (18841970) gained fame as stage actresses, their popular appeal also rested on their ability to cultivate a glamorous appearance. Their careers illustrate the early transformation of actresses into marketable commodities whose celebrity status depended on the consumption of their images. This celebrity, in turn, was used to market an array of beauty and fashion goods to women striving to emulate them. The three women featured in Staging Fashion exemplify the factors that ensured success for 20th-century actresses. Each of these women was dressed by a leading couturier (or several couturiers), both onstage and offstage. In major cities such as New York, Paris, and London, actresses depended on exquisite, custom-made gowns both to secure principal roles and to maintain popularity. Their physical beauty, which was consistent with elite notions of class and race, was depicted on postcards and in popular fashion and theatre magazines and newspapers. Finally, these actresses developed distinct personalities, which were conveyed by their stage roles and in numerous photos and articles.

William Nicholson

A Catalogue Raisonn of the Oil Paintings Patricia Reed

With Wendy Baron and Merlin James
William Nicholson (18721949) is among the most admired and elusive painters in the history of British art. In the first four decades of the 20th century, Nicholson explored the genres of portraiture, landscape, and still life with exceptional inventiveness, wit, and technical skill. His distinctive paintings were neither academic nor modernist, and his aversion to art groups and his reluctance to make public pronouncements about art have made it difficult to place his work within the main narratives of 20thcentury art history. The breadth of Nicholsons works in oil is revealed for the first time in this lavishly illustrated catalogue raisonn. Author and scholar Patricia Reed offers detailed entries for each of Nicholsons oil paintings, along with a comprehensive chronology of his life. The art historian Wendy Baron gives a context for Nicholson in British art at the beginning of the 20th century, and the painter and critic Merlin James celebrates the virtuosity and subtlety of Nicholsons painting technique. This magnificent and substantial catalogue brings to the fore Nicholsons vast achievement in oils.
PATRICIA REED is an independent art historian and the principal scholar on the oil paintings of William Nicholson.

These charming depictions of kitchen maids, elegant young ladies, hunters, drinkers, and amorous couples have gained Metsu a place among the most celebrated painters of 17th-century Holland. His work ranges from group portraits of the families of wealthy merchants, to wistful portraits of single women and bustling genre scenes of markets and taverns. Meeting the demands of the early Dutch art market, Metsu mastered a number of different artistic styles. However, Metsus biography has remained largely enigmatic. This absorbing book provides insight into his life and details the network of personal and professional connections that influenced him. Following the successful exhibition of the artists work last year, this book promotes greater understanding of the full range of Metsus career, and the catalogue raisonn provides a detailed and informative record of his entire known oeuvre.

Foreclosed

Between Crisis and Possibility Jennifer Burris, Sofia Olascoaga, Sadia Shirazi, and Gaia Tedone
This thought-provoking volume offers a critical reevaluation of the term foreclosure: it can refer not only to a forced eviction but also to processes of exclusiona shutting down of recognition, reflection, and debate. Through work in photography, film, video, installation, and performance, the seven artists represented in this volume (Kamal Aljafari, Yto Barrada, Tania Bruguera, Claude Closky, Harun Farocki, Allan Sekula, and David Shrigley) investigate the expanded meaning of foreclosure by reexamining the systems that have produced crises, instead of focusing on the aftermath. Four discerning essays from a team of international curators discuss foreclosure as both a generative concept and a curatorial strategy, allowing the text itself to become a platform for critique.
JENNIFER BURRIS is a curator, recently published in The Journal of Aesthetics and Art Criticism and Studies in French Cinema.

Revised Edition Tim Barringer

Reading the Pre-Raphaelites

Noted for its vivid colors, elaborate use of symbols, and dedication to close observation of the natural world, the work of Pre-Raphaelite artists combines a deep engagement with the past and a modern realism that exemplifies the concerns of the age of steam travel. In Reading the PreRaphaelites, author Tim Barringer draws on an imaginative selection of paintings, drawings, and photographs to suggest that the dynamic energy of Pre-Raphaelitism arose out of the paradoxes at its heart. Past and present, historicism and modernity, symbolism and realism, as well as the tensions between city and country, men and women, worker and capitalist, colonizer and colonized all make appearances within Pre-Raphaelite art. By focusing on these issues, Barringer draws together the strands of revisionist thought on the Pre-Raphaelites and provides a range of stimulating new interpretations of their work. Beautifully illustrated, the revised edition of this authoritative survey traces the history of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, and includes new sections on photography as well as a revised introduction and bibliography.
TIM BARRINGER is Paul Mellon Professor of the History of Art at Yale University. His books include Men at Work: Art and Labour in Victorian Britain (Yale) and the exhibition catalogues American Sublime, Art and Emancipation in Jamaica (Yale), Opulence and Anxiety, and Before and After Modernism.

The Healing Presence of Art

A History of Western Art in Hospitals Richard Cork

Fascinated by the astonishingly rich history of art in hospitals, the wellknown critic and art historian Richard Cork has written a brilliant account of the subject. These works, which include masterpieces of Western art, have been produced from Renaissance Florence and Siena to the 20th century. Piero della Francesca made a painting for a hospital in Sansepolcro, as did Hans Memling in Bruges, Matthias Grnewald in Isenheim, El Greco in Toledo, Rembrandt in Amsterdam, William Hogarth in London, Vincent van Gogh in Saint-Rmy-de-Provence, and Marc Chagall in Jerusalem. The books sumptuous images offer a rich range of subjects, from Francisco Goyas dramatic confrontations with suffering to Giovanni Battista Tiepolos sublime, airborne celebrations of resurrection and heavenly ecstasy. Some, like Leonardo da Vincis incisive drawings, are based on uncompromising firsthand study of hospital patients. Others explore a redemptive world where Christ is born, orphans are rescued, and plague victims are given shelter. In this wide-ranging survey, Cork investigates how such artworks have been used to humanize hospitals, to alleviate their clinical bleakness, and to offer genuine, lasting pleasure to patients, staff, and visitors.
RICHARD CORK is an award-winning art critic, author, and curator.

Art and Anatomy in Renaissance Italy

Images from a Scientific Revolution Domenico Laurenza
Known as the century of anatomy, the 16th century in Italy saw an explosion of studies and treatises on the discipline. Medical science advanced at an unprecedented rate, and physicians published on anatomy as never before. Simultaneously, many of the periods most prominent artistsincluding Leonardo and Michelangelo in Florence, Raphael in Rome, and Rubens working in Italyturned to the study of anatomy to inform their own drawings and sculptures, some by working directly with anatomists and helping to illustrate their discoveries. The result was a rich corpus of art objects detailing the workings of the human body with an accuracy never before attained. Art and Anatomy in Renaissance Italy examines this crossroads between art and science, showing how the attempt to depict bone structure, musculature, and our inner workingsboth in drawings and in three dimensionsconstituted an important step forward in how the body was represented in art. While already remarkable at the time of their original publication, the anatomical drawings by 16th-century masters have even foreshadowed developments in anatomic studies in modern times.

Orsanmichele and the History and Preservation of the Civic Monument

Edited by Carl Brandon Strehlke
This far-ranging collection of essaysthe first book-length scholarly exploration of Orsanmichele since 1996marks the conclusion of a decades-long campaign to restore the magnificent medieval church and its art, most notably Orsanmicheles celebrated niche sculptures. Originally commissioned by Florences trade guilds acting in competition with one another, the sculptures represent work by some of the greatest artists of the dayincluding Donatello, Filippo Brunelleschi, Andrea Pisano, Nanni di Banco, Lorenzo Ghiberti, and Andrea del Verrocchioand are among the finest examples of Renaissance art in the world. In twenty-two original essays by leading scholars working across disciplines, Orsanmichele and the History and Preservation of the Civic Monument makes important new information about the history and restoration of the church available for the first time, and examines the monument in its broadest context as a civic and religious center from the Middle Ages to the present day, revealing the historic buildings evolving role as repository of history and living institution.

Painting Victorian London Nancy Rose Marshall

City of Gold and Mud

London was the quintessential modern city of the 19th century, and its artists were the first to rise to the challenge of depicting the many facets of this new world. From the 1850s to 1900, the city underwent vast changes, resulting in rapid urbanization, a dramatic increase in population, and the creation of dramatic contrasts between the gold of its wealth and splendor and the mud of its squalor and poverty. Artists sought to make sense of this novel and excitingbut often bewilderingenvironment in images not only of the pageantry, parks, and rituals of the city but also of its newly visible street types: minstrels and chimney sweeps, street urchins, shoeblack boys, and flower girls. City of Gold and Mud raises questions about the Victorian metropole in terms of how these popular paintings of modern life portrayed national and imperial identities; relationships of race, class, and gender; and the values, desires, and fears of their makers and users. Nancy Rose Marshall draws on artists writings, arts criticism, popular poetry, news reports, cartoons, tourist guides, religious tracts, and more to paint a vivid and multifaceted picture of London during this critical time in its economic and artistic development.
NANCY ROSE MARSHALL is an associate professor of art history at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Treasures of Chinese Export Ceramics

From the Peabody Essex Museum William R. Sargent
With an essay by Rose Kerr

Beginning in the 16th century when Portuguese traders started importing blue and white porcelain to Europe, Chinese ceramics manufacturers produced goods specifically for export to the West. This industry flourished through the early 20th century as the market for fine porcelain expanded in Europe and North America. Among the Peabody Essex Museums founders in 1799 were sea captains and supercargoes involved in extensive trade with Asia; they brought back remarkable examples of export wares, providing a foundation for the Museums world-renowned collection of Chinese export ceramics. Written by William R. Sargent, one of the fields leading experts, Treasures of Chinese Export Ceramics is one of the most authoritative sources on this topic. The book features scholarly entries on more than 275 objects, dating from the 15th to the 20th century and divided by type of ware. A glossary of ceramics terminology makes this an invaluable resource for even a novice collector. The commentary, including an essay by Rose Kerr, offers new perspectives on the artistic, historical, and social dimensions of export ceramics.

Herefordshire
Rich in new discoveries and fresh interpretation, this fully revised survey is the perfect companion and guide to one of Englands most beguiling counties. A profusion of black-and-white timber-framed houses testifies to the prosperity of earlier centuries, as do the many and varied parish churches. Highlights among these include the extraordinary Norman carvings at Kilpeck, the exquisitely spare Cistercian architecture of Abbey Dore, the seductive Georgian Gothick of Shobdon, and Lethabys Arts and Crafts masterpiece at Brockhampton. The city of Hereford is freshly presented in detail, from its splendid medieval cathedral to the architectural adventures of the Georgians and Victorians. Country houses are plentiful and diverse, including much that is well in step with national fashions. The characteristic landscape of hills and woods lends a special pleasure to architectural exploration, while market towns such as Ledbury, Leominster, and Ross-onWye can match any in England for visual and architectural appeal.

Architecture from Austerity to Affluence Mark Crinson

James Stirling (19241992) is acclaimed as the most influential and controversial modern British architect. His partnership with James Gowan (b. 1923) between 1956 and 1963 put postwar British architecture on the international map, and their Leicester University Engineering Building became an iconic monument for a new kind of modernism. Mark Crinsons book is the most thoroughly researched study of Stirling and Gowans partnership to date. Based on extensive interviews and archival research, Crinson argues that their work was the product of two equally creative partners whose different concerns produced a dynamic aesthetic. He gives an in-depth account of their training and early careers, their relation to key architects and movements of the time, and the commissioning, design, and construction of their work. This critical reassessment dispels previous myths and inaccuracies regarding their partnership and analyzes how ideas about mannerism, modernism, nostalgia, community, consumerism, Victorian cities, and institutional typologies influenced their designs. Stirling and Gowan positions their avant-garde creations within a larger context as creative responses to Britains postwar deindustrialization and the shift from austerity to affluence.
MARK CRINSON is professor of art history at the University of Manchester.

A Portrait of Costanza Piccolomini Sarah McPhee

With lips slightly parted and eyes fixed on a point in the distance, a breathtaking marble portrait of Costanza Piccolomini appears alive. Carved by Gianlorenzo Bernini in 163637 for his own pleasure, the portrait of Costanza is one of his most captivating works, but until now little has been known about its subject. For centuries Costanza was identified only as Berninis mistress, who later incited his rage by betraying him for his brother. Author Sarah McPhee corrects and expands this story in her remarkable biography of a sculpture and its subject. Berninis Beloved sets the bust and Costanzas own lifeher childhood and noble name, her marriage, affair, fall from grace, and recoveryagainst the backdrop of Baroque Rome. Beautifully illustrated and written, this fascinating story expands our understanding of the woman whose intelligence and passion served as inspiration for Berninis celebrated sculpture, and who courageously forged a life for herself in the decades following its creation.

James Wyatt, 17461813

Architect to George III John Martin Robinson
James Wyatt (17461813) is widely recognized as the most celebrated and prolific English architect of the 18th century. At the start of his lengthy career, Wyatt worked on designs for the Oxford Street Pantheons neoClassical interior as well as Dodington, the Graeco-Roman house that served as the model for the Regency country house. Wyatt was the first truly eclectic and historicist architect, employing several versions of Classical and Gothic styles with great facility while also experimenting in Egyptian, Tudor, Turkish, and Saxon modes. His pioneering Modern Gothic marked him as an innovator, and his unique neo-Classical designs were influenced by his links with the Midlands Industrial Revolution and his Grand Tour education. This groundbreaking book sheds new light on modern architectural and design history by interweaving studies of Wyatts most famous works with his fascinating life narrative. This masterly presentation covers the complex connections formed by his web of wealthy patrons and his influence on both his contemporaries and successors.
JOHN MARTIN ROBINSON is an independent architectural historian. He is a partner in Historic Buildings Consultants, Librarian to the Duke of Norfolk, Maltravers Herald Extraordinary and Vice Chairman of the Georgian Group.

The Art of German Stoneware Ceramics, 13001900

From the Charles W. Nichols Collection and the Philadelphia Museum of Art Jack Hinton

Bold, bright, and functional, stoneware ceramics produced in the Germanspeaking centers of what is today Germany and the Low Countries were highly valued and widely traded in Europe and North America from the 16th through the 18th century. In the 1600sthe heyday of stoneware productionthese handsome, practical ceramics found an enthusiastic market in colonial North America. The addition of relief decoration and a brilliant salt-glaze during the Renaissance raised the status of these wares. Later examples eschewed such narrative ornament for more abstract floral or geometric patterns, and greater competition from other centers and mediums in the 18th century led to more unusual, original forms. About sixty fine stoneware pieces from the Philadelphia Museum of Art and a promised private collection testify to the success, artful decoration, and fascinating variety of this medium. Jack Hinton describes the developments in stoneware through these notable examples, and color images bring their details to life. With their bold designs and bright colors, these works exhibit the perfect balance of utility and beauty.

North Italian Paintings from the Accademia Carrara, Bergamo Andrea Bayer and Maria Cristina Rodeschini
The Accademia Carrara of Bergamo is one of Italys premier paintings galleries but remains little known outside that country. It grew from the civicminded vision of three great collectors, beginning with Count Giacomo Carrara, who founded the institution in the late 18th century, and continuing with the great connoisseur Giovanni Morelli. The catalogue focuses on fifteen superlative North Italian paintings from the Accademias collection, all dating from 1450 to 1550, including Giovanni Bellinis haunting Piet, the predella panels from Lorenzo Lottos celebrated Martinengo Altarpiece, and Orpheus and Eurydice, a tour de force of Titians early career. Essays illuminate the importance and influence of the Accademia Carrara, which have extended far beyond Bergamos borders.

William Burton Conyngham and His Irish Circle of Antiquarian Artists

Peter Harbison
In the midst of a resurgence of pride in Irelands history during the 18th century, William Burton, later Conyngham (17331796), strove to emulate his British counterparts in producing albums of engravings illustrating the beauties of the countrys heritage. To further his aims, he formed the Hibernian Antiquarian Society, which lasted only four years due to internal strife. Nevertheless, Burton Conyngham began acquiring drawings of antiquities, and then commissioned Gabriel Beranger and his fellow artists Angelo Bigari and John James Barralet to make sketches of dolmens, churches, abbeys, and castles in areas which were not represented in existing works. In its day, Burton Conynghams was regarded as the most significant collection of such drawings in Ireland. This volume reconstructs that collection, cataloguing more than 600 drawings, which he was known to have secured by about 1780. Also presented in this monograph is the considerable number of copies that were made of the original works as security against damage to the collective whole or the death of its owner.
PETER HARBISON is a member of the Royal Irish Academy and its honorary academic editor.

Insuring the City

The Prudential Center and the Postwar Urban Landscape Elihu Rubin
The Prudential Center anchors the Boston skyline with its tall, gray tower. Though unassuming architecturally, it is a historical beacon, representing a midcentury moment when insurance companies such as Prudential were particularly aware of how their physical presence and civic engagement reflected upon their intangible product: financial security. Looking to New Yorks Rockefeller Center, the creators of the Prudential Center aspired to use real estate development as a tool toward civic achievement, reinvigorating central Boston and integrating a large complex of buildings with new infrastructure for the automobile. Architectural historian Elihu Rubin tells the full story of The Pru, placing it within the political, economic, and architectural contexts of the period. The Prudential Center played a pivotal role in the economic redevelopment of Boston and was arguably one of the most significant urban developments of the 1950s and 60s. It is an important story, and one that provides great insight into the evolution of the modern city in postwar America.
ELIHU RUBIN is an architectural historian, city planner, and documentary filmmaker. He is the Daniel Rose (51) Visiting Assistant Professor of Urbanism at the Yale School of Architecture.

The English Prize

The Capture of the Westmorland, An Episode of the Grand Tour Edited by Mara Dolores Snchez-Juregui Alpas and Scott Wilcox
Laden with works of art acquired by young British travelers on the Grand Tour in Italy, the British merchant ship Westmorland sailed from the Italian port of Livorno before being captured by French naval vessels and escorted to Malaga in southern Spain. The artistic treasures on board were purchased by King Carlos III of Spain, and the majority were deposited in the collections of the Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando. There they resided, unknown, until recent research, using original inventories that survive in the Academias archives, identified the Westmorlands rich cargo. The English Prize reveals the gripping story of the ships capture and the disposition of its artistic contents, which included Raphael Mengss Perseus and Andromeda, Pompeo Batonis portraits of Frances Bassett and Lord Lewisham, and watercolors by John Robert Cozens. This volume illuminates the cultural phenomenon of the Grand Tour and the young travelers who acquired the trove of books and art works on board the Westmorland but were never able to enjoy their purchases.

Architecture and the Arts in Northern Europe, 14701540 Ethan Matt Kavaler
This compelling book offers a new paradigm for the periodization of the arts, one that counters a prevailing Italianate bias among historians of northern Europe of this era. The years after 1500 brought the construction of several iconic Late Gothic monuments, including the transept facades of Beauvais cathedral in northern France, much of Kings College in Cambridge, England, and the parish church at Annaberg in Saxony. Most designers and patrons preferred this elite Gothic style, which was considered fashionable and highly refined, to alternative Italianate styles. Ethan Matt Kavaler connects Gothic architecture to related developments in painting and other media, and considers the consequences of the breakdown of the Gothic system in the early 16th century. Late Gothic architecture is recognized for its sensuous and abundant ornament. Its visually rich surfaces signify wealth and magnificence, and its flamboyant geometric designs portray a system of perfect and essential forms that convey spiritual authority, while often serving as signs of personal or corporate identity. Renaissance Gothic presents a groundbreaking and detailed study of the Gothic architecture of the late 15th and 16th centuries across Europe.
ETHAN MATT KAVALER is professor of art history at the University of Toronto.

Lucie Rie

Modernist Potter Emmanuel Cooper

Lucie Rie (19021995), one of the 20th centurys most celebrated and iconic potters, combined an acute understanding of modernism with the skills of her chosen craft. During the course of her sixty-year career, she continually honed and refined her work, developing new shapes and surface effects that were distinctly her own. Her delicately shaped bowls, bottles, and other vessels reflect her commitment to simplicity and clarity of form, earning her both critical and popular acclaim. This comprehensive biography follows Ries life and artistic development from her birth into the Austria of the Habsburgs to her studies at the progressive Kunstgewerbeschule in Vienna, and finally her years in Britain following her escape in 1938 from Nazi-controlled Austria. Emmanuel Cooper, a distinguished potter who knew Rie, interviewed many of her friends and acquaintances to produce this complete and detailed account of Ries life and work. The author has been given unrestricted access by the Rie estate to previously unpublished letters and other material, which provide fascinating new insights into her life and work and have allowed him to reevaluate Ries creative output within the broader context of modernism and the emergence of the studio pottery movement in Britain.

Genealogies of Architectural Modernism Alina Payne

In the late 19th century, a centuries-old preference for highly ornamented architecture gave way to a budding Modernism of clean lines and unadorned surfaces. At the same moment, everyday objectscups, saucers, chairs, and tablesbegan to receive critical attention. Alina Payne addresses this shift, arguing for a new understanding of the genealogy of architectural modernism: rather than the well-known story in which an absorption of technology and mass production created a radical aesthetic that broke decisively with the past, Payne argues for a more gradual shift, as the eloquence of architectural ornamentation was taken on by objects of daily use. As she demonstrates, the work of Adolf Loos and Le Corbusier should be seen as the culmination of a conversation about ornament dating as far back as the Renaissance. Payne looks beyond the usual suspects of philosophy and science to establish theoretical catalysts for the shift from ornament to object in the varied fields of anthropology and ethnology; art history and the museum; and archaeology and psychology.
ALINA PAYNE is professor of history of art and architecture at Harvard University. In 2006 she received the Max Planck and Alexander von Humboldt Prize in the Humanities. Her books include The Architectural Treatise in the Italian Renaissance, The Telescope and the Compass, and Antiquity and Its Interpreters.

Venice and Vitruvius

Reading Venice with Daniele Barbaro and Andrea Palladio Margaret DEvelyn

In about 3525 b.c.E., the Roman architect Vitruvius produced his encyclopedic ten-book summary of the principles of Hellenistic architecture, De architectura (On Architecture). These ideas have stimulated architects ever since. In the mid-16th century, the architect Andrea Palladio (1508 1580) and the humanist Daniele Barbaro (15131570) looked to the city of Venice in order to understand and interpret Vitruviuss textstill in need of clarificationwhich would enable them to solve contemporary architectural problems. They found in the citys medieval and Renaissance streets, palaces, churches, and towers living principles that enabled them to interpret the ancient principles. By 1556, Barbaro had incorporated their observations into his Commentaries on Vitruvius, and two distinctly new editions for different audiences followed a decade later. Margaret DEvelyn has gathered evidence to document how Palladios understanding of Vitruvius influenced Barbaro. This engrossing volume also charts the invention of the illustrated architectural book and how major architect-authors, such as Leon Battista Alberti and Sebastiano Serlio, contributed to its developmentdemonstrating how Vitruvius shaped the way the city of Venice was viewed.

J. B. Fischer von Erlach

Architecture as Theater in the Baroque Era Esther Gordon Dotson and Mark Richard Ashton
Though little known in the English-speaking world, Johann Bernhard Fischer von Erlach (16561723) was one of the most important and influential European baroque architects. The buildings that he designed for the emperor of Austria and his courtiers reveal an element of theatricalityan element that author Esther Gordon Dotson probes in this attractive volume. In his architectural designs, Fischer incorporated devices from ceremonial pageantry and scene design, controlled lighting effects, and a sense of dramatic progression in approaching and moving through a building. Dotson identifies these various elements in her close reading of Fischers structures, and splendid new photographs, taken by Mark Richard Ashton, bring them to life on the printed page. The author also delves into Fischers past and his writings to explain the impact his awareness of architectural history, his early employment by designers of street-festival pageants and his relationships with others involved in such staged productions had upon his architectural designs. Dotson guides readers in discovering the theatrical qualities in Fischers buildings, illuminating their conceptual liveliness, variety, drama, and enduring beauty.
At the time of her death in October 2009, ESTHER GORDON DOTSON was professor emerita in the Department of the History of Art at Cornell University. MARK RICHARD ASHTON is an independent scholar and photographer in Ithaca, New York.

An Eakins Masterpiece Restored

Seeing The Gross Clinic Anew Edited by Kathleen A. Foster and Mark S. Tucker

Thomas Eakins (18441916) is acknowledged as one of the preeminent American painters of the 19th century. As a young artist in 1875 he prepared a monumental painting for the Philadelphia Centennial of Dr. Samuel D. Gross of Jefferson Medical College. Rejected by the selection committee for being too gruesome, The Gross Clinic is hailed today as the artists masterpiece. Purchased by the medical college, the work was a fixture there until 2006, when its threatened sale prompted thousands to donate funds to keep it in Philadelphia through a joint acquisition by the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. Kathleen A. Foster and Mark S. Tucker update the story of The Gross Clinic to the present day. They draw on discoveries made during the 200910 project to look more deeply into the history, aesthetics, and technique of the painting. Through their discussion, complemented by interpretations from the perspectives of cultural and medical history by Steven Conn and Mark S. Schreiner, M.D., respectively, this celebrated painting can now be understood anew.

Sterling Clark in China

This catalogue presents the captivating story of museum founder Robert Sterling Clarks important but little-known 19089 scientific expedition to northwest China. Over a century later, the context and significance of his adventure are being explored, and bringing to light important cultural and archaeological discoveries. Trained as a civil engineer, Clark brought a scientists curiosity to the planning of his journey, assembling a talented professional team that included a surveyor, a doctor and meteorologist, an artist, and the British naturalist Arthur de Carle Sowerby, as well as some thirty additional support staff. Departing from the city of Taiyuan in Shanxi province, the Clark expedition traversed the provinces of Shaanxi and Gansu, reaching as far westward as Lanzhou before returning to Taiyuan. In all, the team covered nearly 2000 miles, primarily on horse and mule, and the resulting research launched Sowerbys career as the leading authority on Chinese fauna. Beautifully illustrated with archival photographs, Sterling Clark in China details the artistic, historical, and cultural legacy of a fascinating voyage.

Unearthed

Recent Archaeological Discoveries from Northern China Annette Juliano; With an essay by An Jiayao
In 1908, the American adventurer Robert Sterling Clark organized a scientific expedition to northern China to create a detailed geographical survey, photograph the region and its peoples, and collect samples of the flora and fauna. Inspired by this important early record of the region, the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute has organized a major exhibition of Chinese archaeological treasures from the Shanxi, Shaanxi, Ningxia, and Gansu provinces. Ranging from gilt bronze plaques with animal imagery produced by early nomadic cultures, to tomb guardians charged with protecting the deceased, to luxury goods reflecting the lucrative Silk Road trade, these artifacts are helping to redefine our understanding of ancient Chinese cultures. Showcasing over 85 recently excavated objects, Unearthed includes detailed texts that discuss tradition and innovation in Chinese art; Chinas interactions with the outside world through trade and invasion; artistic techniques and styles; and cultural traditions. The acquisition of the artifacts is contextualized within the major developments in Chinese archaeology over the past hundred years.

The London Square

Gardens in the Midst of Town Todd Longstaffe-Gowan

Modern-day London abounds with a multitude of gardens, enclosed by railings and surrounded by houses, which attest to the English love of nature. These green enclaves, known as squares, are among the most distinctive and admired features of the metropolis and are Englands greatest contribution to the development of European town planning and urban form. Traditionally, inhabitants who overlooked these gated communal gardens paid for their maintenance and had special access to them. As such, they have long been synonymous with privilege, elegance, and prosperous metropolitan living. They epitomize the classical notion of rus in urbe, the integration of nature within the urban plana concept that continues to shape cities to this day. Todd Longstaffe-Gowan delves into the history, evolution, and social implications of squares, which have been an important element in the planning and expansion of London since the early 17th century. As an amenity that fosters health and well-being and a connection to the natural world, the square has played a crucial role in the development of the English capital.
TODD LONGSTAFFE-GOWAN is a landscape architect with an international practice based in London. He is gardens adviser to Hampton Court Palace and is currently redesigning the gardens of Kensington Palace in London.

Venice from the Water

Architecture and Myth in an Early Modern City Daniel Savoy

The floating city of Venice has enchanted visitors for centuries with its maze of scenic canals. For this pioneering book, Daniel Savoy set out by boat to explore the built environment of these waterways, gaining new insights into the architectural history of this major early modern Italian center. By viewing the architecture and experience of the canals in relation to the production of Venetian civic mythology, the author found that the waterways of Venice and its lagoon were integral areas of the citys pre-modern urban space, and that their flanking buildings were constructed in an intimate dialogue with the waters visual, spatial, and metaphorical properties. Enhancing the natural wonder of their aquatic setting, the builders of Venice used illusory aesthetic and scenographic practices to create waterfront buildings that appear to float, blend into the water, and glide into view around bends in the canalstransporting visitors into a seemingly otherworldly realm. This books striking photographs of Venice, as seen from its waterways, will likewise transport readers with breathtaking views of this captivating city.
DANIEL SAVOY is an assistant professor of art history at Manhattan College.
