Beschreibung

In "The Art and Craft of Printing," William Morris meticulously details the intricate processes and philosophies underpinning the print-making movement of the late 19th century. This work serves as both a practical guide and a manifesto for a return to artisanal craftsmanship amidst the prevalent industrialization of the time. Morris, known for his ornate style and commitment to aesthetic beauty, weaves together historical context, technical instruction, and philosophical reflections, demonstrating the profound relationship between art and utility. His passionate advocacy for high-quality design and production reflects the ideals of the Arts and Crafts Movement, challenging the notion of mass production by emphasizing individuality and craftsmanship. William Morris, a leading figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement, was deeply influenced by his background in medieval art and literature, alongside his experiences in socialism and environmentalism. His frustration with the soullessness of industrial society propelled him to explore the intersection of art, labor, and social reform. Morris'Äôs belief in the intrinsic value of handmade objects is poignantly articulated in this work, inviting readers to reconsider the role of art in their everyday lives. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in the disciplines of art, design, and history. Morris'Äôs eloquent prose and inspiring vision make it a critical read for artists, students, and scholars alike, encouraging a deeper appreciation for the beauty of handmade crafts and the cultural significance of printing.

    ABOUT THE FILM 
    "Dances with Wolves" is an epic Western film directed by and starring Kevin Costner. Set during the American Civil War, it follows Lieutenant John Dunbar, who, after a heroic act on the battlefield, is sent to a remote military outpost in the western frontier. There, he encounters the Lakota Sioux tribe and begins to form an unexpected bond with them. The film explores themes of cultural conflict, survival, and the impact of colonialism. Through Dunbar's evolving relationships with the Sioux and his growing respect for their way of life, the story delves into issues of identity, honor, and unity. 
      
    TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
      
    “Because of the film's overwhelming success and its respectful portrayal of Native Americans, the Sioux Nation honored Kevin Costner by adopting him as an honorary member.” 
      
    “In a memorable scene where the buffalo charges at Smiles a Lot, it is actually charging toward a pile of Oreo cookies, which were the buffalo's favorite treat.” 
      
    “Kevin Costner performed all of his own horseback riding, including riding bareback and shooting his gun without holding the reins, during the buffalo hunt.” 
      
    “Kevin Costner's daughter, Annie Costner, portrayed a young Stands With a Fist in the flashback dream sequence. In one scene, she runs from the Pawnee party that killed her family, looking back over each shoulder. She struggled to distinguish between her right and left sides, as she was only six years old at the time.”

    Hamlet calls death "that undiscovered country from whose bourn no traveler returns." 
     
     
     
    But he's wrong. Some do return. 
     
     
     
    Each night after the applause dies, the curtain falls, the audience vanishes, the cleaners dust, and the lights are killed, great theatres become dark and silent places. But not always quite empty. 
     
     
     
    That's when the theatre ghosts make their entrance and strut and fret their hour upon the shadowed boards, illuminated only by the ghost light, the solitary lamp that is required to burn through the night on every Broadway stage. 
     
     
     
    Many of Broadway's busiest theatres continue to be just as busily haunted by spirits, some with well-known names and histories. 
     
     
     
    Good Morning, Olive (named for one of the most beautiful and temperamental of Broadway's ghosts) is about the ghosts that haunt theatres in New York and around the world. 
     
     
     
    Broadway is the playground of stars, so it's probably not surprising to learn that even its ghosts are stars. Meet some of Broadway's best known—and most active—celebrity ghosts. Don't worry: like Casper, they tend to be friendly. For the most part.
