the artist explorers john fairley

It was in large part the lure of riches, such as spices and gold, and the promise of fertile land which tempted the British and other Europeans to venture out to unknown lands.These intrepid explorers, who devoted and often lost their lives on journeys of discovery, were frequently accompanied by artists. At the time there was no other way of pictorially recording their exploits and experiences.James Cook and his botanist Joseph Banks had artists Alexander Buchan and Sydney Parkinson on board for their initial voyage to the South Seas. Buchan’s first pictures were of the natives of Tierra del Fuego as the Endeavour rounded Cape Horn but tragically within a month he died, apparently of epilepsy. Thomas Baines travelled with Livingstone while Charles Heaphy in New Zealand and the Governor''s wife in India were amongst many others who produced drawings and paintings.The many fine works in this book fashioned the British public''s image of their countrymen’s discoveries and, later, of the lives of those who remained in these faraway places. Right up to the start of the 20th century their publication in the illustrated papers of the day became the core of popular appreciation.

These intimate, passionate, haunting letters offer a unique form of memoir and conversation, and an unforgettable insight into a life devoted to making art.''Beautiful, tender, and riveting.

Kniha vyšla na základe najslavnejšieho záhadologického televízneho seriálu, ktorý bol u nás pred dvadsiatimi rokmi vysielaný s mimoriadnym úspechom.Za hranicami sveta, ktorý môžeme merať a analyzovať, je ešte iný, tajomnejší svet. A práve "nadvedecký" svet pre nás v tejto knihe odhaľuje Arthur C. Clarke, ktorého brilantné prorocké a varovné poviedky čítajú milióny ľudí. Na jeho pokyn precestovali Simon Welfare a John Fairley päť svetadielov, aby spovedali svedkov podivných udalostí a nevysvetliteľných javov. Zhovárali sa s mužmi aj ženami, ktorí videli obludy z hlbín oceánov a jazier, s tými, na ktorých padali z nebies žaby a ryby, ale aj s tými, ktorí videli "neidentifikovateľné lietajúce objekty" (UFO), krížujúce nočnú oblohu v oslnivom jase, hovorili taktiež s cestovateľmi a horalmi, ktorí zahliadli yettiho, snežného muža, dlho ignorované ako produkt fantázie, i jeho bratranca, "Veľkú stopu", ktorý sa zakráda severoamerickými lesmi. Hrozivejšie udalosti boli okrem toho vyhodnocované v nádeji, že môžeme zhromaždiť také svedectvá, ktoré môžu zabrániť budúcej katastrofe. Ohnivý predmet z nebies, ktorý v roku 1908 zničil rozsiahle územie sibírskej tajgy, mohol koniec koncov zrovnať so zemou Paríž, New York, alebo Londýn: kedy máme čakať ďalšiu návštevu?

How a group of artist-mothers in postwar San Francisco refused the centuries-old belief that a woman could not make art while also raising children.For most of modern history, to be an artist and a mother was to embody a contradiction in terms. This “awful dichotomy,” as painter Alice Neel put it, pitted artmaking against caretaking and argued that the best art was made at the expense of family and futurity. But in San Francisco in the 1950s and 1960s, a group of artists gathered around Ruth Asawa (1926–2013) began to reject this dominant narrative. In Ruth Asawa and the Artist-Mother at Midcentury, Jordan Troeller analyzes this remarkable moment. Insisting that their labor as mothers fueled their labor as artists, these women redefined key aesthetic concerns of their era, including autonomy, medium specificity, and originality.Delving into the archive, where the traces of motherhood have not yet been erased from official history, Troeller reveals Ruth Asawa’s personal and professional dialogue with several other artist-mothers, including Merry Renk, Imogen Cunningham, and Sally Woodbridge. For these women, motherhood was not an essentialized identity, but rather a means to reimagine the terms of artmaking outside of the patriarchal policing of reproduction. This project unfolded in ...

What is "the artist type"? How is an artist''s mind structured? What are the links between creativity and mental health? Are there particular personality traits and psychological experiences that great artists have in common? Are most artists really mad? What defines the artist''s personality?This book answers these questions by way of a deep, multi-angled, psychological analysis of the personality-based roots of creativity and the creative process. It draws on decades of scientific research focused on the central, mysterious trait of Openness, the true unifying glue behind everything creative. Featuring dozens of notable creators such as John Coltrane, Diane Arbus, Francesca Woodman, David Bowie, Frida Kahlo, Jack Kerouac, John Lennon, and others, this book showcases the nuances of an artist''s mind beyond oversimplified formulas that falsely connect art to mental illness, painting a more authentic picture of the structure of the artist''s psychology. Ultimately, this book reveals that the "torture" in an artist''s perceived image has more to do with personality, creative processes, states of mind, and a need to express trauma symbolically, repeating it in the form of art.As an eminent psychobiographer with an award-winning career as a personality and creativity psychologist, Dr. William Todd Schultz yet again offers his ...

The portrayal of Stephen Dedalus's Dublin childhood and youth, his quest for identity through art and his gradual emancipation from the claims of family, religion and Ireland itself, is also an oblique self-portrait of the young James Joyce and a universal testament to the artist's 'eternal imagination'. Both an insight into Joyce's life and childhood, and a unique work of modernist fiction, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is a novel of sexual awakening, religious rebellion and the essential search for voice and meaning that every nascent artist must face in order to blossom fully into themselves.

Covering the entire output of an archetypal - and tragically short-lived - romantic genius, the Penguin Classics edition of The Complete Poems of John Keats is edited with an introduction and notes by John Barnard.Keats''s first volume of poems, published in 1817, demonstrated both his belief in the consummate power of poetry and his liberal views. While he was criticized by many for his politics, his immediate circle of friends and family immediately recognized his genius. In his short life he proved to be one of the greatest and most original thinkers of the second generation of Romantic poets, with such poems as ''Ode to a Nightingale'', ''Bright Star,'' ''The Eve of St Agnes'' and ''La Belle Dame sans Merci''. While his writing is illuminated by his exaltation of the imagination and abounds with sensuous descriptions of nature''s beauty, it also explores profound philosophical questions.John Barnard''s acclaimed volume contains all the poems known to have been written by Keats, arranged by date of composition. The texts are lightly modernized and are complemented by extensive notes, a comprehensive introduction, an index of classical names, selected extracts from Keats''s letters and a number of pieces not widely available, including his annotations to ...

Its originality shocked contemporary readers on its publication in 1916 who found its treating of the minutiae of daily life indecorous, and its central character unappealing.

Christianity Today 2024 Book Award (Biblical Studies)The third quest for the historical Jesus has reached an impasse. But a fourth quest is underway--one that draws from a heretofore largely neglected source: John''s Gospel.In this book, now in paperback, renowned New Testament scholar Craig Blomberg advances the idea that John is a viable and valuable source for studying the historical Jesus. The data from John should be integrated with that of the Synoptics, which will yield additional insights into Jesus''s emphases and ministry.Blomberg begins by reviewing the first three quests, reassessing both their contributions and their shortcomings. He then discusses the emerging consensus regarding demonstrably historical portions of John, which are more numerous than usually assumed. Peeling back the layers, we discover in Jesus''s ministry an emphasis on purity and purification. The Synoptics corroborate this discovery, specifically in Jesus''s meals with sinners. Blomberg then explores the practical and contemporary applications of Jesus the purifier, including the "contagious holiness" that Jesus''s followers can spread to others.
