the so-called 'canon tables' of the christian gospels are an absolutely remarkable feature of the early, late antique, and medieval christian manuscript cultures of east and west, the invention of which is commonly attributed to eusebius and dated to first decades of the fourth century ad. intended to host a technical device for structuring, organizing, and navigating the four gospels united in a single codex - and, in doing so, building upon and bringing to completion previous endeavours - the canon tables were apparently from the beginning a highly complex combination of text, numbers and images, that became an integral and fixed part of all the manuscripts containing the four gospels as sacred scripture of the christians and can be seen as exemplary for the formation, development and spreading of a specific christian manuscript culture across east and west ad 300 and 800.

in the footsteps of carl nordenfalk's masterly publication of 1938 and few following contributions, this book offers an updated overview on the topic of 'canon tables' in a comparative perspective and with a precise look at their context of origin, their visual appearance, their meaning, function and their usage in different times, domains, and cultures.

  • this book is a diary derived from the careful editing of a vast series of notebooks: a complete yet diverse ensemble of investigations, lecture notes, travel diaries, poems, short fictions, summaries, and projects. owing to the performance of her writing, the image created shows not only the life of an artist but also the way she transmits her experience, and how she conceives the current state of the arts. between self-help and an artistic frankenstein, this book covers ten years of atomized writing, scattered notes which have found their axis many years later. experience is considered to be a multisensorial collage, and drawing is a modest and subtle companion, but also a powerful tool to transform reality. for the author, writing is pouring life directly into notebooks: a mobile registry which records impressions at any time, and at its own pace.

    over the last 75 years, superheroes have been portrayed most often as male, heterosexual, white, and able-bodied. today, a time when many of these characters are billion-dollar global commodities, there are more female superheroes, more queer superheroes, more superheroes of color, and more disabled superheroes--but not many more.

    superwomen investigates how and why female superhero characters have become more numerous but are still not-at-all close to parity with their male counterparts; how and why they have become a flashpoint for struggles over gender, sexuality, race, and disability; what has changed over time and why in terms of how these characters have been written, drawn, marketed, purchased, read, and reacted to; and how and why representations of superheroes matter, particularly to historically underrepresented and stereotyped groups.

    specifically, the book explores the production, representations, and receptions of prominent transmedia female superheroes from their creation to the present: wonder woman; batgirl and oracle; ms. marvel and captain marvel; buffy the vampire slayer; star wars' padm amidala, leia organa, jaina solo, and rey; and x-men's jean grey, storm, kitty pryde, rogue, and mystique. it analyzes their changing portrayals in comics, novels, television shows, and films, as well as how cultural narratives of gender have been negotiated through female superheroes by creators, consumers, and parent companies over the last several decades.

  • hilaire-germain-edgar degas (1834-1917) was a french painter, draftsman, printmaker and sculptor celebrated for his scenes of modern life, from the cabaret concert to the racetrack to the ballet, the subject for which he is best known. academically trained, degas emulated old master and 19th-century predecessors; at the same time, he embraced radically new subjects, compositions and techniques. (来源indiebound) (2)'> a towering figure in 19th-century art, degas is best known as a painter and chronicler of the ballet. yet his work in monotype reveals the true extent of his restless experimentation. in the mid-1870s, degas was introduced to the monotype process, a technique in which the artist draws in ink on a metal plate that is then run through a press, typically resulting in a single print. degas embraced the medium with enormous enthusiasm, inventing a new repertoire of mark-making that included wiping, scraping, scratching, fingerprinting and rendering via removal. the resulting works are characterized by enigmatic and mutable forms, luminous passages emerging from darkness and a heightened tactility. taking the monotype process to radical ends, degas explored a variety of subjects, including city dwellers in motion; harshly illuminated cafe singers, ballet dancers on and offstage, women in intimate settings; and evanescent landscapes. with this medium, degas is at his most modern, liberating drawing from tradition, depicting the body in new and daring ways, and boldly engaging the possibilities of abstraction. published to accompany an exhibition at the museum of modern art, this richly illustrated catalogue presents approximately 120 monotypes along with some 60 related works, including paintings, drawings, pastels, sketchbooks and prints. essays and detailed studies by curators, scholars and conservators explore the creative potency of degas' rarely seen monotypes, and highlight their impact on his wider practice.

  • in the decades following world war ii, france experienced both a period of affluence and a wave of political, artistic, and philosophical discontent that culminated in the country-wide protests of 1968. in disordering the establishment lily woodruff examines the development of artistic strategies of political resistance in france in this era. drawing on interviews with artists, curators, and cultural figures of the time, woodruff analyzes the formal and rhetorical methods that artists used to counter establishment ideology, appeal to direct political engagement, and grapple with french intellectuals' modeling of society. artists and collectives such as daniel buren, andré cadere, the groupe de recherche d’art visuel, and the collectif d’art sociologique shared an opposition to institutional hegemony by adapting their works to unconventional spaces and audiences, asserting artistic autonomy from art institutions, and embracing interdisciplinarity. in showing how these artists used art to question what art should be and where it should be seen, woodruff demonstrates how artists challenged and redefined the art establishment and their historical moment (2)
  • tokaido yotsuya kaidan (the eastern seaboard highway ghost stories at yotsuya, 1825) by tsuruya nanboku iv. drawing not only on kabuki scripts but also on a wide range of other sources, from theatrical ephemera and popular fiction to medical and religious texts, she sheds light on the development of the ubiquitous trope of the vengeful female ghost and its illumination of new themes at a time when the samurai world was losing its relevance. she explores in detail the process by which nineteenth-century playwrights began dismantling the edo tradition of "presenting the past" by abandoning their long-standing reliance on the sekai. she then reveals how, in the 1920s, a new generation of kabuki playwrights, critics, and scholars reinvented the form again, "textualizing" kabuki so that it could be pressed into service as a guarantor of national identity. (来源indie) (2)'> satoko shimazaki revisits three centuries of kabuki theater, reframing it as a key player in the formation of an early modern urban identity in edo japan and exploring the process that resulted in its re-creation in tokyo as a national theatrical tradition. challenging the prevailing understanding of early modern kabuki as a subversive entertainment and a threat to shogunal authority, shimazaki argues that kabuki instilled a sense of shared history in the inhabitants of edo (present-day tokyo) by invoking "worlds," or sekai, derived from earlier military tales, and overlaying them onto the present. she then analyzes the profound changes that took place in edo kabuki toward the end of the early modern period, which witnessed the rise of a new type of character: the vengeful female ghost.

    shimazaki's bold reinterpretation of the history of kabuki centers on the popular ghost play tokaido yotsuya kaidan (the eastern seaboard highway ghost stories at yotsuya, 1825) by tsuruya nanboku iv. drawing not only on kabuki scripts but also on a wide range of other sources, from theatrical ephemera and popular fiction to medical and religious texts, she sheds light on the development of the ubiquitous trope of the vengeful female ghost and its illumination of new themes at a time when the samurai world was losing its relevance. she explores in detail the process by which nineteenth-century playwrights began dismantling the edo tradition of "presenting the past" by abandoning their long-standing reliance on the sekai. she then reveals how, in the 1920s, a new generation of kabuki playwrights, critics, and scholars reinvented the form again, "textualizing" kabuki so that it could be pressed into service as a guarantor of national identity.

  • the militarized legacy of the digital cloud: how the cloud grew out of older network technologies and politics. we may imagine the digital cloud as placeless, mute, ethereal, and unmediated. yet the reality of the cloud is embodied in thousands of massive data centers, any one of which can use as much electricity as a midsized town. even all these data centers are only one small part of the cloud. behind that cloud-shaped icon on our screens is a whole universe of technologies and cultural norms, all working to keep us from noticing their existence. in this book, tung-hui hu examines the gap between the real and the virtual in our understanding of the cloud. hu shows that the cloud grew out of such older networks as railroad tracks, sewer lines, and television circuits. he describes key moments in the prehistory of the cloud, from the game "spacewar" as exemplar of time-sharing computers to cold war bunkers that were later reused as data centers. countering the popular perception of a new "cloudlike" political power that is dispersed and immaterial, hu argues that the cloud grafts digital technologies onto older ways of exerting power over a population. but because we invest the cloud with cultural fantasies about security and participation, we fail to recognize its militarized origins and ideology. moving between the materiality of the technology itself and its cultural rhetoric, hu's account offers a set of new tools for rethinking the contemporary digital environment. show more (2)
