1822rif. 22114London: Charles and James Ollier 1822. First Edition. Original stiff grey wrappers and paper label. Good; some soiling to the wrappers; amateurish paper re-back; 4 pages carelessly opened; chipping to the lower edge of the fore-corner of the last 3 leaves; dustiness at the extreme edges. 8vo xi 1 - blank 2 - fly title 3 - 60 pp. Shelley's last published poem; written in 1821 while resident in Pisa months before his death. It's theme is the Greek revolt for independence. It must be noted that these late manuscripts of Shelley were published without his oversight - since he was resident in Italy beginning in 1818. Variants from these published pieces to the now standard texts of the Crook edition volume 7 of the projected 8 now published no doubt occur; Shelley's papers were fragmented and in disarray at the time of his unexpected death. "For / Revenge and wrong bring forth their kind / The foul cubs like their parents are / Their den is in the guilty mind / And conscience feeds them with despair." Granniss #74. See Pamela Clemit's article in the TLS July 8 2022 pp. 7-8. Charles and James Ollier unknown books

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 338 pp. ; 67 illus. -- with a bonus offer--; Associating social justice with landscape is not new yet the twenty-first century's heightened threats to landscape and their impact on both human and more generally nature's habitats necessitate novel intellectual tools to address such challenges. This book offers that innovative critical thinking framework. The establishment of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights UDHR in 1948 in the aftermath of Second World War atrocities was an aspiration to guarantee both concrete necessities for survival and the spiritual/emotional/psychological needs that are quintessential to the human experience. While landscape is place nature and culture specific the idea transcends nation-state boundaries and as such can be understood as a universal theoretical concept similar to the way in which human rights are perceived. The first step towards the intellectual interface between landscape and human rights is a dynamic and layered understanding of landscape. Accordingly the 'Right to Landscape' is conceived as the place where the expansive definition of landscape with its tangible and intangible dimensions overlaps with the rights that support both life and human dignity as defined by the UDHR. By expanding on the concept of human rights in the context of landscape this book presents a new model for addressing human rights - alternative scenarios for constructing conflictreduced approaches to landscape-use and human welfare are generated. This book introduces a rich new discourse on landscape and human rights serving as a platform to inspire a diversity of ideas and conceptual interpretations. The case studies discussed are wide in their geographical distribution and interdisciplinary in the theoretical situation of their authors breaking fresh ground for an emerging critical dialogue on the convergence of landscape and human rights. . 2011. 1409404447 .

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 240 pp. ; 32 illus. -- with a bonus offer--; Collecting Mexico centers on the ways in which aesthetics and commercialism intersected in officially sanctioned public collections and displays in late nineteenth-century Mexico. Shelley E. Garrigan approaches questions of origin citizenry membership and difference by reconstructing the lineage of institutionally collected objects around which a modern Mexican identity was negotiated. In doing so she arrives at a deeper understanding of the ways in which displayed objects become linked with nationalistic meaning and why they exert such persuasive force. Spanning the Porfiriato period from 1867 to 1910 Collecting Mexico illuminates the creation and institutionalization of a Mexican cultural inheritance. Employing a wide range of examples—including the erection of public monuments the culture of fine arts and the representation of Mexico at the Paris World’s Fair of 1889—Garrigan pursues two strands of thought that weave together in surprising ways: national heritage as a transcendental value and patrimony as potential commercial interest. Collecting Mexico shows that the patterns of institutional collecting reveal how Mexican public collections engendered social meaning. Using extensive archival materials Garrigan’s close readings of the processes of collection building offer a new vantage point for viewing larger issues of identity social position and cultural/capital exchange. . 2012. 0816670927 .

FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 182 pp. ; 17 illus. -- with a bonus offer--; Ashgate Studies in Architecture; As Ruskin suggests in his "Seven Lamps of Architecture": 'We may live within architecture and worship without her but we cannot remember without her.' We remember best when we experience an event in a place. But what happens when we leave that place or that place no longer exists This book addresses the relationship between memory and place and asks how architecture captures and triggers memory. It explores how architecture exists as a physical entity and how it registers as a place that we come to remember beyond the physical site itself. It questions what architecture is in the broadest sense assuming that it is not simply buildings. Rather architecture is considered to be the mapping of physical mental or emotional space. The idea that we are all architects in some measure - as we actively organize and select pathways and markers within space - is central to this book's premise. Each chapter provides a different example of the manifold ways in which the physical place of architecture is curated by the architecture in our 'mental' space: our imaginary toolbox when we think of a place and look at a photograph or visit a site and describe it later or send a postcard. By connecting architecture with other disciplines such as geography visual culture sociology and urban studies as well as the fine and performing arts this book puts forward the idea that a conversation about architecture is not exclusively about formal isolated buildings but instead must be deepened and broadened as spatialized visualizations and experiences of place. . 2011. 140940871X .
