| | 2 | Title: | Shadow-makers: a cultural history of shadows in architecture | | | | Creator: | Kite, Stephen | | | | Notes: | "The making of shadows is an act as old as architecture itself. From the gloom of the medieval hearth through to the masterworks of modernism, shadows have been an essential yet neglected presence in architectural history. Shadow-Makers tells for the first time the history of shadows in architecture. It weaves together a rich narrative - combining close readings of significant buildings both ancient and modern with architectural theory and art history - to reveal the key places and moments where shadows shaped architecture in distinctive and dynamic ways. It shows how shadows are used as an architectural instrument of form, composition, and visual effect, while also exploring the deeper cultural context - tracing differing conceptions of their meaning and symbolism, whether as places of refuge, devotion, terror, occult practice, sublime experience or as metaphors of the unconscious. Within a chronological framework encompassing medieval, baroque, enlightenment, sublime, picturesque, and modernist movements, a wide range of topics are explored, from Hawksmoor's London churches, Japanese temple complexes and the shade-patterns of Islamic cities, to Ruskin in Venice and Aldo Rossi and Louis Kahn in the 20th century. This beautifully-illustrated study seeks to understand the work of these shadow-makers through their drawings, their writings, and through the masterpieces they built "-- Includes bibliographical references and index. | | | | Extent: | xxiv, 331 pages ; 24 cm | | | | Subjects: | Architecture and society | Shades and shadows in architecture | ARCHITECTURE / General | ARCHITECTURE / History / General | ARCHITECTURE / Interior Design / Lighting | ART / History / General | Architecture and society | Shades and shadows in architecture

| 17 | Title: | Household medicine in seventeenth-century England | | | | Creator: | Stobart, Anne | | | | Notes: | Includes bibliographical references (pages 251-277) and index. How did 17th-century families in England perceive their health care needs? What household resources were available for medical self-help? To what extent did households make up remedies based on medicinal recipes? Drawing on previously unpublished household papers ranging from recipes to accounts and letters, this original account shows how health and illness were managed on a day-to-day basis in a variety of 17th-century households. It reveals the extent of self-help used by families, explores their favourite remedies and analyses differences in approaches to medical matters. Anne Stobart illuminates cultures of health care amongst women and men, showing how 'kitchin physick' related to the business of medicine, which became increasingly commercial and professional in the 18th century.--Back cover. | | | | Extent: | xiii, 289 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm | | | | Subjects: | Medicine, Traditional history | Family Health history | Self Care history | History, 17th Century | England

| 19 | Title: | Touring and publicizing England's country houses in the long eighteenth century | | | | Creator: | Anderson, Jocelyn | | | | Notes: | Includes bibliographical references (pages 206-227) and index. Over the course of the long eighteenth century, many of England's grandest country houses became known for displaying noteworthy architecture and design, large collections of sculptures and paintings, and expansive landscape gardens and parks. Although these houses continued to function as residences and spaces of elite retreat, they had powerful public identities: increasingly accessible to tourists and extensively described by travel writers, they began to be celebrated as sites of great importance to national culture. This book will examine how these identities emerged, repositioning the importance of country houses in eighteenth-century Britain and exploring what it took to turn them into tourist attractions. Drawing on travel books, guidebooks, and dozens of0tourists? diaries and letters, it offers a rich exploration of what it meant to tour country houses such as Blenheim Palace, Chatsworth, Wilton, Kedleston and Burghley in the tumultuous 1700s. It also questions the legacies of these early tourists: both as a critical cultural practice in the eighteenth century and an extraordinary and controversial influence in British culture today, country-house tourism is a phenomenon which demands investigation. | | | | Extent: | xiv, 236 pages, 8 unnumbered pages of plates : illustrations (some color) ; 24 cm | | | | Subjects: | Country homes -- England -- 18th century
