Portraits in the Collection of the American Antiquarian Society updates the documentation of the Societys portrait collection reflecting its growth since 1946 when Frederick L. Weis prepared a checklist. This work was undertaken by Lauren B. Hewes. The collection is an eclectic one that represents many aspects of the history of the Society: the interests of benefactors who gave their collections to the Society and the impulse to commemorate the Societys leadership. A number of portraits came into the collection with or because of related manuscript or book collections or were commissioned by the Society and for these there is extraordinary information about the circumstances of their production.

Costume production distinguishes early civilization from the Paleolithic era as much as architectural production. Costume transcends boundaries, as it first unites and then divides mankind. The mode of dress differentiates friend from foe and peasant from prince. Changes in the appearance and types of garments through the ages are a significant indicator of social, economic and chronological changes. This annotated bibliography of 603 references, taken from monographs, dissertations, festschrifts, periodicals, encyclopedias and handbooks, is the most comprehensive research tool for the subject of ancient Greek costume. This subject is of increasing interest to scholars in many fields, including archaeology and anthropology, art and art history, classics, drama, history, ancient literature, even modern literature. The references in this bibliography range from the encyclopedia entry to the monograph, and show a variety of themes: women''s dress, men''s dress, foreign dress, accessories, jewelry, headdresses, theater dress, textile production and literary evidence.

Stranded with only her broken-down Mustang convertible, Catalina never expects to be catapulted into the Old West with a real-life desperado or to fall deeply into love and unbridled passion with the infamous gunslinger known as "Kid Creed." Original.

The golden-haired woman had barely escaped from a stagecoach robbery before she got lost in the Wyoming mountains.

"In essays by Diane P. Fischer, Linda J. Docherty, Robert W. Rydell, Gabriel P. Weisberg, and Gail Stavitsky, Paris 1900 examines the campaign sponsored by the U.S. Department of State proving the existence of a distinct "American school" of art and refuting earlier French criticism that American art was primarily a reflection of French art. At this exposition, the McKinley administration''s crusade emphasized paintings that exuded "American character," such as images of virile men, wholesome women, pristine landscapes, and technologically superior cities. Paintings by still-powerful American expatriates were also included: Exhibiting only native themes would have smacked of a provincialism inconsistent with the new outward-looking agenda of American foreign policy." "Featuring more than 140 color and black-and-white illustrations, Paris 1900 is the companion volume to a major exhibition of over 80 paintings, sculptures, and decorative art objects at The Montclair Art Museum, which will travel later to museums in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; Columbus, Ohio; Madison, Wisconsin; and Paris, France."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Ny roman för unga läsare av Augustprisnominerade Linda Jones Den första hämnden sker i skogen. Ett överfall på en noggrant utvald kille. Klädda i mörka kläder och halsduken virad upp till ögonen agerar de som en flock. Efteråt känns det inte så bra. Eller gör det det? Vera, Jasse och Minna ska alltid hålla ihop, speciellt nu i sjuan. När allt äntligen är nytt nytt nytt. Första skoldagen ser de några äldre tjejer som står lutade mot väggen, Dr Martens, uttråkade blickar. Det dröjer inte länge innan de tar kontakt med Jasse. Tjejerna kallar sig för Bunny och Bunny kräver hämnd. På killar som skriker hora och beter sig som svin, utan att det ger konsekvenser. Och Jasse och Vera ska bli deras lakejer. Under hösten kommer Vera och Jasse längre och längre ifrån Minna. Hon vet inget om mötena, kvällarna, skogen. Tror de. Mitt i allt träffar Vera en kille, Isak. Han är den första och den största. Men Bunny skonar ingen. Linda Jones skriver med absolut gehör om ensamhet, utsatthet, kompisskap och det farliga i att vara ung. "Lejonflock" är en fascinerande och lysande uppväxtskildring där frågan om hämnd ställs på sin spets: Var går egentligen gränsen? Hennes bok "De tar allt ifrån mig" har lyfts i flera prissammanhang: Nominerad till Norrlands litteraturpris och till Augustpriset, tilldelad Hjärtans fröjd-priset och Adlibrispriset.

Augustprisnominerade "De tar allt ifrån mig" Hur mycket kan man offra för att få sin röst hörd? Frida är femton år och nybliven jägare. Hon drömmer om att gå i sin mammas fotspår: bli jaktlagets ledare och få älgblod på kängorna. Jakten är det enda som finns kvar i byn. Allt annat har tagits ifrån dem. Men när ett okänt djur dyker upp i skogen avlyser länsstyrelsen älgjakten. Den här hösten ställs allt på sin spets. I stället för en efterlängtad jakt inleds en kamp om vem som har rätt att bestämma över en annan människas liv. Förutom jakten är det Emmy, det är något med henne som inte stämmer. Och Frej med svart nagellack, varför vill han hänga med Frida? ”De tar allt ifrån mig” är en andlöst välskriven inlandsroman. En tät och gnistrande skildring av en uppväxt i ett Sverige där samhället monteras ner. Där raseriet och utanförskapet får människorna att ta lagen i sina egna händer. Linda Jones debuterade 2019 med ”Bete sig” som fick ett väldigt fint mottagande och tilldelades Norrlands litteraturpris. "De tar allt ifrån mig" nominerades till Augustpriset 2023.
