Berkeley Art Museum University of California: 28 January - 19 April 1998 National Gallery of Canada Ottawa: 18 June - 23 August 1998 Miriam and Ira D. Wallach Art Gallery Columbia University New York: 15 September - 21 November 1998 ; "The reputation of William Hogarth 1697-1764 rests largely on his pictorial stories a series of engravings that he called "modern Moral Subjects" the most famous being the Harlot's and the Rake's Progress. In this catalog David Bindman works backward from Hogarth's reputation today--where he is seen by some as a conservative populist and by others as a political radical--and examines his impact on various artists over the past three centuries. Bindman also sets Hogarth's prints firmly in their historical context discussing the artist's public and the different influences on his work from Roman satire to the politics of the day. The result is an engaging and insightful portrayal not only of William Hogarth but also of the middle years of the eighteenth century. Art lovers will enjoy this book but so too will anyone with an interest in the literature and history of the mid-eighteenth century.

It is a book with a very broad appeal for its pages give a picture of the thoughts and fears common to everyone who has ever worn a uniform no matter what role heroic or otherwise he may have played in war. Beach Red may be called a pre-view to action rather than a realistic record. It can best be interpreted as a study of all the things that run through a soldier's mind during days of training or on lonely nights in barracks or aboard a transport going East or West. And it reveals the seldom confessed truth--that everyone who goes to war lives through a thousand battles and dies a thousand deaths.Its style which is split prose rather than verse has the staccato flow of introspective thought."--essay ; Signature of John Ransom Lewis the Poet Laureate of Georgia on the front endpaper ; G <br/> <br/> New York : Random House, 1945. hardcover

Many of the early students also brought their slaves to the college with them. Upon Emancipation some of the African Americans of the community--mostly women--stayed on as servants forming what is now called the Hollins Community. Although the servants played an integral part in the college's success students were strongly discouraged from acknowledging them as people. Rules forbidding any 'familiarity' with the servants perpetuated a prejudicial attitude toward the African American community that would persist well into the 1940s. Determined to give voice to the African American community that served as the silent workforce for Hollins College Ethel Morgan Smith herself a graduate of Hollis College succeeded in finding individuals to step forward and tell their stories."--jacket ; VG/VG <br/> <br/> Columbia : University of Missouri Press, 2000. hardcover
