Defining Edges: A New Look at Picture Frames

Book Description

The choice of a frame affects the way we view a work of art in multiple ways, even when we are not aware of it. In this stimulating and truly original book, W. H. Bailey, an artist, designer, and frame consultant, shows how the frame is a vital part of viewing pictures and integral to their presentation. He shatters preconceived notions of borders and changes the way we see and understand art.

Bailey examines 56 paintings-including some well-known masterpieces-to explore how their frames, many designed by the artists themselves, relate to the pictures they surround. As The New Yorker writer Adam Gopnik says in his foreword: "Bailey views the act of framing not as a decorative act but as a meaningful one. . . a vindication of the purely visual, of seeing as a form of thought. A frame can be like a superior detective, come to force the picture to confess its real intentions, saying, as detectives will: 'Come out, come out! You're surrounded!'"

Book Description

The connection between fashion, femininity, frivolity and Frenchness has become a clicheacute;. Yet, relegating fashion to the realm of frivolity and femininity is a distinctly modern belief that developed along with the urban culture of the Enlightenment. In eighteenth-century France, a commercial culture filled with shop girls, fashion magazines and window displays began to supplant a courtly fashion culture based on rank and distinction, stimulating debates over the proper relationships between women and commercial culture and between morality and taste. The story of how "la mode" was "sexed" as feminine offers compelling insights into the political, economic and cultural tensions that marked the birth of modern commercial culture. Jones examines men's and women's relation to fashion at this time, looking at both consumption and production to show the origins of the idea of shopping and fashion as specifically feminine.

Book Description

"In my opinion, [Agee's] column is the most remarkable regular event in American journalism today."--W. H. Auden

James Agee was passionately involved with the movies throughout his life. A master of both fiction and nonfiction, he wrote about film in clean, smart prose as the reviewer for Time magazine and as a columnist for The Nation. Agee was particularly perceptive about the work of his friend John Huston and recognized the artistic merit of certain B films such as The Curse of the Cat People and other movies produced by Val Lewton.

The Master Writes His Love.......2007-03-30

James Agee was a great writer (his book about the Dust Bowl is a classic). He continued to be a brilliant writer in his film reviews and his scripts. Thank you, Modern Library, for returning these collections of writing to us. They are wonderful to read and they make you think!

He created serious film criticism.......2005-08-21

I still have my first edition copy of Agee on Film.

A production on the stage is seen once and then is gone forever. Curiously, despite the fact that a film can be viewed repeatedly, once upon a time revivals were rare, and most audiences saw a film once, talked about it, then forgot about it.

Even the film studios only half-heartedly treated their products as permanent, allowing many of them to deteriorate irretrievably and others nearly so (eventually giving rise to an entire industry devoted to film restoration).

Films were given a new life with the advent of television. Growing up on old movies on the tube in the 1950s, I found that repeated viewing of the same film could be a rich experience, and nothing enhanced this experience more than the appearance in the early 1960s of Agee on Film.

Agee took film seriously as a cultural experience, a molder of public opinion, a tool that might be useful or dangerous. Just how much he differs from mainstream reviewers who regarded the movies primarily as entertainment can be seen in the two different sets of reviews in this book.

His reviews in the liberal The Nation are extended analyses of the films and the sensibilities of the filmmakers, withering critiques of the limitations of the studio system, and manifestos on how good films could have been made better. Agee interpolates in his reviews his opinions about everything: The War (WWII, of course), politics, race, education, religion, psychology, philosophy ... the list goes on.

In contrast, his reviews for Time, constrained by that magazine's conservatism, are truncated and absent the depth and bite that distinguishes Agee from all other critics. His beautiful use of language keeps him afloat, but were it not for The Nation, I doubt Agee would have the reputation of Greatest Film Critic of All Time.

Agee on Film was originally in two volumes. The first was the current book. The second was a collection of Agee's own screenplays, including the classic The Night of the Hunter; Noa Noa, a fascinating teleplay about Gaugin (very different from Maughams' The Moon and Sixpence); and his magnificent adaptation of the The African Queen. Thus, he was able, unlike most critics, and with admirable results, to put his pen where his critique was.

James Agee almost single-handedly popularized the appreciation of film as an art form. The writing in this book is how he did it.

James Agee, an inspiring critic.......2001-06-17

Ever wonder what causes a movie reviewer to *become* a movie reviewer? When I was a ten-year-old kid just getting into classic movie comedies, I went to the library and checked out the book AGEE ON FILM solely because it had references to Charlie Chaplin and W.C. Fields. Thus was my introduction to high-quality film criticism.

James Agee made his reputation writing sterling movie reviews for Time and The Nation magazines in the 1940's. Among other glories, he wrote a much-heralded essay titled "Comedy's Greatest Era" that helped to bring silent-comedy icons (most notably Harry Langdon) out of mothballs and caused them to be re-viewed and discussed seriously among film historians. He later went on to work on the screenplays of a couple of gems titled The African Queen and Night of the Hunter.

Unfortunately, many people who regard the critics Pauline Kael and Stanley Kauffmann have either forgotten Agee's work entirely or have assigned his own work to mothballs. But among the faithful are film director Martin Scorsese, who serves as editor of the "Modern Library: The Movies" series of film books. The series has recently reissued the AGEE ON FILM book, and re-reading Agee's work (or reading it for the first time, if you're lucky enough) proves that film criticism can make for reading material as compelling as any fictional novel.

Agee passes the acid test for any film critic: Even if you don't agree with him, his writing is so lively that you can't help enjoying it. His work ranges from three separate columns (three weeks' worth, in print terms) to Chaplin's much-maligned (at the time) MONSIEUR VERDOUX, to the most concise, funniest review ever: Reviewing a musical potboiler titled YOU WERE MEANT FOR ME, Agee replied in four simple words, "That's what *you* think."

If you want to see what high-caliber movie criticism meant in the pre-Siskel & Ebert days, engross yourself in this sprawling book. It'll make you appreciate the decades before every newspaper, newsletter, and Internet site had its own minor-league deconstructionist of Hollywood blockbusters.

Resurrected Film Study.......2001-02-17

James Agee was short for this world, having died in his mid 40s. In that span of time he wrote a famous book, Let Us Now Praise Famous Men, and a couple of classic screenplays, AFRICAN QUEEN and NIGHT OF THE HUNTER. This collection of magazine film reviews and essays is in many ways the leftover part of his work, and yet it feels like enough to make a reputation on. His reviews span just one decade, the 1940s. Many of them tackle foreign films that may be unavailable for all I know.

Interesting to me is that he spends three weeks discussing Chaplin's MONSIEUR VERDOUX, which is a most unusual movie and mostly forgotten today. This might be because he saw it as his only chance to write a poignant piece on the greatest living film artist, or it may be because he identified with the plight of mankind theme that Chaplin was reaching for. You can pick another reason, yourself, but it was a bold decision, because most critics panned the film (according to him) and most readers probably couldn't even see the movie in their small towns. It was as if he knew he would be writing for posterity. Like all critics, he cultivated his darlings. He saw much in the work of John Huston and was very skillful in his sizing up of TREASURE OF THE SIERRA MADRE. I was impressed that he predicted the all-time classic nature of the film, but also understood the studio system gimmicks that took away from the genius.

You don't have to be literary minded like W. H. Auden to enjoy this book. You'll like it, if you like movies.

More than we ever deserved . . ........2000-05-12

James Agee wrote film criticism in America at a time when the American film industry hardly deserved his attention. His celebrations of silent film comedy, of Preston Sturges, of John Huston [for whom he later wrote the script for The African Queen], and of the handful of worthy foreign films that he managed to see are what make this volume worth reading. Besides Agee's beautiful prose and above all his compassion. Interestingly, Agee was a fan of Frank Capra's comedies (It Happened One Night) and bemoaned the director's decent into serious social films (Mr Smith Goes To Washington, Meet John Doe). His negative review of It's a Wonderful Life, which has never been in print since it appeared in 1946, reveals the extent to which Agee was perhaps too far ahead of his time, and even of ours.

Book Description

This New York Times Notable Book tells the true story of what it was like growing up in Mao's China, where the soul was secondary to the state, beauty was mistrusted, and love could be punishable by death. Newsweek calls Anchee Min's prose "as delicate and evocative as a traditional Chinese brush painting."

torn from a family.......2006-09-05

Having read Becoming Madame Mao before reading Red Azalea blunted the impact. Both essentially use the same plot background. Nevertheless, Red Azalea was a good (and easy) read. The narration almost carries a feeling of a monotone in the telling but the blunt force of the brutal Mao regime balances any intimacies. We need to remind ourselves from what the Chinese are now recovering--and that cruelty and incredible backwardness still lingers in that society. That passion which is revealed is sad, for it comes from great loneliness and lack of family.
I'm curious as to how Anchee Min got through the process of coming to the U.S. and what her life has since become. I'd like to know more about her parents and how her siblings fared. I was left hanging.

Book Description

The dreadful global conflagration known as the Second World War was more than the clashing of great armies on bloody battlefields. A different kind of war was being waged in the secret laboratories on both sides of the conflict -- a war that would alter the course and determine the outcome of the bitter hostilities, forever changing our world and our future.

While it is a widely accepted fact that America's development and employment of the atomic bomb ended the Pacific struggle -- and that the failure of Hitler's scientists to develop their own A-bomb helped to doom Germany -- little has been made of the other remarkable scientific accomplishments of this dark and terrible epoch. Edifying, enthralling, startling, and sobering, Laboratory Warriors is a masterful work that sheds light on the technological achievements that swung the pendulum of victory in the Allies' direction.

Book Description

What is behind the violence against abortion clinics, attacks on gays and lesbians and the growing power of the religious right?

Frederick Clarkson makes it clear that beyond the bombers and assassins who sometimes make news, is a growing, if not well understood, movement that encompasses Pat Robertson's Christian Coalition, the Unification Church of Sun Myung Moon and the Promise Keepers--the lead agency of the so-called Christian men's movement.

Drawing on years of rigorous research, Clarkson exposes the wild card of the "theology of vigilantism" which urges the enforcement of "God's law" and argues for fundamentalist revolution against constitutional democracy. Contrary to popular belief, these figures are usually neither nuts nor alone.

ETERNAL HOSTILITY concludes with a challenge to leading neoconservative academics who attempt to blame much of the current culture wars on the legalization of abortion while ignoring the theocratic intentions of leading "conservatives."

Customer Reviews:

Even more interesting given recent events.......2005-05-11

This book is an interesting examination of theocratic elements within the Christian Right and more generalist theocratic impulses and influences shaping the agendas of many of the leaders and founders of the Christian Right religio-political movement, the beginnings of which can be traced back to the 1970's.

I only recently discovered this book. Its publication date (the soft cover edition anyway) is 1997--nearly a decade ago.

Reading some of the reviews that were written closer to the time of the book's publication, it's clear that Clarkson's analyses were deemed alarmist or overblown by some. This probably seemed somewhat reasonable given that at the time many print and TV commentators (not Clarkson, obviously) were declaring the demise of the Christian Right, and given that a center-left moderate was in The Oval Office.

However, since the re-election of George W. Bush in 2004 and the openly-declared efforts by Christian Right leaders and Republican elected officials to codify in law their vision of an essentially "Christian 'democracy,'" if you will (my term, not Clarkson's), and given the now more widely-understood influence of genuine theocrats, like R. J. Rushdoony, on neo-conservative and conservative thinkers like Paul Weyrich, Clarkson's book seems prescient.

Consider also the recent "Justice Sunday" event, at which any Americans--be they elected officals, judges, or private citizens--who support the continuation of the practice of filibusters in the U.S. Senate were brazenly branded "enemies" of "people of faith." Events such as "Justice Sunday" render impotent the dismissive complaints of earlier reviews of this book that Clarkson was somehow off-base to argue that Christian Reconstructionists, dominionists, and many conservative leaders of the Christian Right could or would influence or had influenced American law and society.

Clearly they could, did, and continue to so.

Agree or disagree with all of Clarkson's arguments or analyses; but, to deem his book crazy, off-base, or otherwise irrelevant is reckless at best.

An eye opener.......2004-11-17

For those who have not paid attention to the creeping desctruction of the American way of life by the religious right, this book will be an eye opener. Mr. Clarkson presents a compelling analysis of this insidious movement that, under the pretense of Christianity, is attempting to turn the USA into a theocratic despotic state, or a despotic theocracy, whichever way you wish to look at it.

A good road map to conservative thinking.......2004-11-10

This is an excellent book for understanding the connections between religious beliefs, political action, church and state issues, and associated activites. Clarkson explains in honest, plain English what is what - and includes the why, without sound bites or weird rhetoric. Very interesting to those with prior knowledge as well as to the novice, an interesting read for all levels of knowledge.

Eye Opening .......2004-11-10

Everyone should read this amazing book: those who report the news, those who listen to and read the news, commentators, talking heads, everyone.

How can someone so smart be so ignorant? Hatred........2004-10-23

Poor Freddy Clarkson has let his hatred get in the way of scholarship and honest intellectual argument. Here, he constructs a paper tiger (Christianity), equates it with Radical Islam, and then proceeds to tear the whole thing down. Sure, it's preposterous, but books like this are a dime a dozen these days as hysterical Christ-phobes trot out shopworn pat answers to their dwindling pods of followers. It should be noted that the style of this book is cold and arid...reading it is sort of like crawling through the desert, if the desert was located in Siberia in February. Unlike some of the other books that are searing in their intensity, this one is cold as ice, and any open-minded, fair-minded person will find Clarkson's premise quite chilling indeed. An America under Clarkson and his ilk would be reminiscent of another great society that blundered down the pathway of hatred and intolerance...say, Germany 60 years ago. The freedom that we enjoy in America today...the freedom that Clarkson has to print his blathering...comes from Founders who embraced a Judeo-Christian ethos and paid for their ideas with their own blood. If one wants to examine the "freedoms" in an athiestic society, one could look to China, the USSR, Albania, Cuba, and other places to see what happens. As far as equating Christianity with Radical Islam, again, one only needs to look at a map to see which religions dominate which cultures and which cultures respect diversity of opinion. What a shame that Clarkson would rather slander sincere people of faith (who practice true tolerance) than to take a deep breath and step slowly back from the word processor and look at the real world.
