Gullah Images
Paintings, magisterial and universal, that capture the essence of a vibrant African American community In his art Jonathan Green paints the world of his childhood and an ode to a people imbued with a profound respect for the dignity and value of others—the Gullah people of the South Carolina barrier islands. His canvases, beloved for their sense of jubilation and rediscovery, evoke the meaning of community in Gullah society and display a reverence for the rich visual, oral, and spiritual traditions of its culture. His art also reveals a keen awareness of the interpersonal, social, and natural environments in which we live. The 180 images assembled in this collection showcase the meaning, purpose, and beauty that Green finds in the small but critical tasks of life. His work elevates the everyday—preparing morning meals, doing the wash, accomplishing farming chores, finishing a day''s work, relaxing in the evening—and celebrates the social and religious—community dances, baptisms, weddings, funerals. Green allows his audience the space and silence to observe people unobtrusively as they pursue life''s mission of labor, love, and belonging and as they work in harmony with nature''s mysterious, ever changing fabric. While Green''s paintings speak specifically to his own upbringing, they transcend racial, cultural, and ethnic boundaries, thus allowing individuals of all backgrounds to recall fond memories and to reflect on the place that purpose and dignity hold in their lives. In addition to a foreword by Pat Conroy, essays by Bettye J. (Mbitha) Parker Smith, Lynn Robertson, and Ronne Hartfield complement Green''s images. They tell of the vitality of the Gullah community, the progression of Green''s career, and the authenticity of his work.

Gullah Spirit

release date: Nov 23, 2021
Gullah Spirit
A celebration of the life and culture of the Gullah people of the South Carolina Lowcountry in 179 new paintings Jonathan Green is best known for his vibrant depictions of the Gullah life and culture established by descendants of enslaved Africans who settled between northern Florida and North Carolina during the nineteenth century. For decades, Green''s vividly colored paintings and prints have captured and preserved the daily rituals and Gullah traditions of his childhood in the Lowcountry marshes of South Carolina. While Green''s art continues to express the same energy, color, and deep respect for his ancestors, his techniques have evolved to feature bolder brush strokes and a use of depth and texture, all guided by his maturing artistic vision that is now more often about experiencing freedom and contentment through his art. This vision is reflected in the 179 new paintings featured in Gullah Spirit. His open and inviting images beckon the world to not only see this vanishing culture but also to embrace its truth and enduring spirit. Using both the aesthetics of his heritage and the abstraction of the human figure, Green creates an almost mythological narrative from his everyday observations of rural and urban environments. Expressed through his mastery of color, Green illuminates the challenges and beauty of work, love, belonging, and the richness of community. Angela D. Mack, executive director of the Gibbes Museum of Art in Charleston, South Carolina, provides a foreword. The book also includes short essays by historian Walter B. Edgar, educator Kim Cliett Long, and curator Kevin Grogan.

Book Marketing for Authors

Book Marketing for Authors
Do you want to turn writing from a hobby into a business? You no longer need a publisher sliding their hand into your pocket and disappearing your profits. Most of us dream of writing the great American novel - not a book that only our friends and family will read. Far too often brilliant books die a silent death because authors are not marketers. We are creative spirits who yearn to unleash our creative visions on the world - not spend our days mastering spreadsheets! Far too many independent authors have given up far too soon. They struggle to find an audience, get attention, and turn their books into a business. Why? Because they aren''t following a proven system. Maybe this is you right now. Maybe you believe that you''re not good enough, that you''ll never have enough time, or that you simply don''t want to give up your integrity in order to sell a few more books. When you think of marketing, you think of a used-car salesmen convincing your grandparents to buy a car they can barely afford and will barely make it ten feet off the lot. But that assumption is DEAD WRONG What good is writing the greatest novel of all time if nobody ever reads it? In this book, you will see the inner workings of a successful independent author, publisher and marketer. Bestselling author Jonathan Green holds nothing back as he reveals exactly how you can kickstart your next book and breathe new life into a book that hasn''t sold a copy in years. Let''s make your dreams come true, whether you are a beginner or a master, a children''s book writer or a romance author. It''s about finding a strategy that works and implementing it with alacrity. Imagine a world where: -You no longer have to work on your book after the kids are asleep, in between meetings, or when nobody is looking -People walk up to you and ask for your autograph while you''re eating with your kids -Your checks and direct deposits from book royalties are more than the price of a candy bar Are you ready to learn a process that you will actually enjoy?

Printing and Prophecy

release date: May 09, 2017
Printing and Prophecy
Printing and Prophecy: Prognostication and Media Change 1450-1550 examines prognostic traditions and late medieval prophetic texts in the first century of printing and their effect on the new medium of print. The many prophetic and prognostic works that followed Europe''s earliest known printed book---not the Gutenberg Bible, but the Sibyl''s Prophecy, printed by Gutenberg two years earlier and known today only from a single page---over the next century were perennial best sellers for many printers, and they provide the modern observer with a unique way to study the history and inner workings of the print medium. The very popularity of these works, often published as affordable booklets, raised fears of social unrest. Printers therefore had to meet customer demand while at the same time channeling readers'' reactions along approved paths. Authors were packaged---and packaged themselves---in word and image to respond to the tension, while leading figures of early modern culture such as Paracelsus, Martin Luther, and Sebastian Brant used printed prophecies for their own purposes in a rapidly changing society. Based on a wide reading of many sources, Printing and Prophecy contributes to the study of early modern literature, including how print changed the relationship among authors, readers, and texts. The prophetic and astrological texts the book examines document changes in early modern society that are particularly relevant to German studies and are key texts for understanding the development of science, religion, and popular culture in the early modern period. By combining the methods of cultural studies and book history, this volume brings a new perspective to the study of Gutenberg and later printers.

Antique Tools – Unexpected Finds and Eccentric Objects
Have you ever wondered, how all the wonderful objects in our museums were made? The masterly use of hand tools by our ancestors would probably be at the core of the answer. Often those skills and particularly the tools that were used have been left out of the limelight though. Are you interested in; hand tools and making objects, collecting, crafts and trades, material culture, museum studies, social history, folk art? If the answer is ‘yes’ to any one of these topics, this publication may pique your curiosity! In this publication, various antique tools are illustrated and analysed, in relation to their previous functions, their cultural value as objects, and why they are studied and collected. Our current times are dominated by mass-produced objects, many being the results of computer software design and automated production lines. The tools illustrated within this book may provide refreshing alternatives to this. Take a closer look at these examples of craftsmanship from our collective past.
