Images of Schoolteachers in America

Images of Schoolteachers in America

This book explores images of schoolteachers in America from the beginning of the 20th century to the present using a wide range of approaches to scholarship and writing. It is intended for both experienced and aspiring teachers to use as a springboard for discussion and reflection about the teaching profession and for contemplating these questions: What does it mean to be a teacher? What has influenced and sustained our beliefs about teachers? New in the second edition * The focus is shifted to the teaching profession as the 21st century unfolds. * The volume continues to explore teacher images through various genres-oral history narrative literature and popular culture. In the second edition the authors place more emphasis on the social-political context that has shaped teachers' daily experiences and the teaching profession itself. In the study of teacher images and schooling the essays draw from feminist research methods and the critical tradition in educational inquiry to probe issues of power and authority race social class and gender. * The emphasis is on the multidimensionality of teacher images rather than normative characterizations. * Six totally new chapters have been written for this new edition: an invented interview spanning 100 years of school teaching; portraits of progressive activist teachers; an exploration of teachers in fiction for young adults; a retrospective of the satirical cartoon show The Simpsons; a study of crusading and caring teachers in films; and an overview of progressive classroom practices in the new millennium. Seven chapters have been thoroughly revised to reflect current scholarship and the authors' evolving knowledge and interests.

Images of Children in Byzantium

Images of Children in Byzantium

This book covers a subject that has never previously been addressed and yet it is both a fascinating and a provocative one: the representation of children in Byzantium. The visual material is extensive intriguing and striking and the historical context is crucially important to our understanding of Byzantine culture social history and artistic output. The imagery explored is drawn from the fourth to the fifteenth centuries and encompasses media from manuscripts to mosaics and enamel. Part of the allure of this subject is that people do not associate childhood with Byzantium. Ernst Gombrich commented 'who could find it easy after a visit to Ravenna and its solemn mosaics to think of noisy children in Byzantium?'. However in Byzantium patrons of art were often young such as emperors who acceded to the throne as teenagers and makers of art sculptors mosaicists painters often began their training at an early age. How did this affect the creation promotion and production of art? The study questions the definitions and perceptions of childhood focusing on topics such as the family saintly children and those associated with imperial power. Cecily Hennessy demonstrates that children are featured often in visual imagery and in key locations indicating that they played a central role in Byzantine life something which has previously been overlooked or ignored. In tackling this new subject she reveals important aspects of childhood youth and by extension adulthood in Byzantine society and raises issues that are also applicable to the present and to other historical contexts. | Images of Children in Byzantium

Striking Images Iconoclasms Past and Present

Striking Images Iconoclasms Past and Present

All cultures make and break images. Striking Images Iconoclasms Past and Present explores how and why people have made and modified images and other cultural material from pre-history into the 21st century. With its impressive chronological sweep and disciplinary breadth this is the first book about iconoclasm (the breaking of images) and the transformation of broader sets of signs that includes contributions from archaeologists curators and museum conservators as well as historians of art literature and religious studies. The chapters examine themes critical to the study of iconoclasm: violence punishment memory intentionality ruins and relics and their survival. The conclusion shows how cross-disciplinary debate amongst the contributors informed Tate Britain’s 'Art under Attack' exhibition (2013) and addresses the challenges iconoclasm presents to the modern museum. By juxtaposing objects and places usually considered in isolation Striking Images raises provocative questions about our understandings of cross-cultural differences and the value of representational objects from the broken swords of pre-historical bog graves to the Bamiyan Buddhas and contemporary art. Are any such objects ever ’finished’ or are they simply subject to constant transformation? In dialogue with each other the essays consider this question and expand the field of iconoclasm - and cultural - studies.
