Diderot and the foreign colonies of Catherine II
No full textR. P. Bartlett, Diderot and the foreign colonies of Catherine II.
During his visit to St. Petersburg in 1773-74, Diderot presented to Catherine II an anonymous memorandum on the foreign colonies recently established on the river Volga. The article introduces and prints the text of this paper, which was omitted from P. Vernière's Mémoires pour Catherine II (Paris, 1966). The memorandum analyses the poor state of the colonies and presents a project for their economic and social development. While the analysis of the colonists' difficulties is persuasive, the project is excessively optimistic and would have further oppressed the colonies it was designed to help. Its general approach fitted well with government views after 1774, but there is no evidence that it influenced Catherine II. It is suggested that the author was François Pierre Pictet, at one time Catherine's French-language secretary, and closely involved in the colonies in their early years. Diderot must have been attracted by proposals which seemed to combine personal and property rights for the colonists with economic growth and the development of a third estate.R. P. Bartlett, Diderot et les colonies étrangères de Catherine II.
Au cours de sa visite à Saint-Pétersbourg en 1773-1774, Diderot présenta à Catherine II un mémorandum anonyme sur les colonies étrangères, récemment établies sur la Volga. Nous reproduisons ici ce document qui n'a pas été inclus dans P. Vernière, Mémoires pour Catherine II (Paris, 1966), et nous le faisons précéder d'une introduction. Ce mémorandum analyse le triste état des colonies et soumet un projet de développement économique et social pour y remédier. Si l'étude des difficultés rencontrées par les colons emporte la conviction, le projet, en revanche, est excessivement optimiste et son application aurait fini par aboutir à l'oppression des colonies qu'il se proposait d'aider. Les grandes lignes du projet cadraient bien avec les vues du gouvernement après 1774, mais on ne possède pas de preuve qu'elles ont influencé Catherine II. On a lieu de croire que l'auteur du mémorandum était François Pierre Pictet, qui fut à un moment donné secrétaire de langue française de Catherine et était étroitement engagé dans les affaires coloniales à leurs débuts. Diderot a dû être séduit par les propositions qui semblaient combiner pour les colons les droits personnels et les droits de propriété à la croissance économique et à la constitution d'un tiers état.Bartlett Roger P.

Describing typeforms: a designer's response
No full textThe paper sets out an overview of a pragmatic research investigation initiated within a doctoral enquiry, and which continues to inform design practice and pedagogy. Located within the fields of typography and information design, and very much concerned with design history, enquiry emphasized exploration of alternative design research methodologies in the production of a design outcome loaded with pedagogical ambition.
The issue being addressed within the investigation was the limited scope of existing typeface classificatory systems to adequately describe the diversity of forms represented within current type design practice and thus, recent acquisitions to an established teaching collection in London.
Addressing this issue unexpectedly came to utilize the researcher’s own design practice as a methodology for managing emergent enquiry, and for organizing and generating new knowledge through the employment of visual information management methods.
A primary outcome of the enquiry was a new framework for the description of typeforms. This new framework will be described in terms of its operation, divergence from existing models and potential for application
Interview about historical fiction with Catherine Johnson, author of novels for young adults and children (transcript)
No full textThis is the transcript of an interview with Catherine Johnson, the award-winning author of historical novels for children and young adults.
Catherine Johnson’s historical novels are principally set in the eighteenth-century and feature the adventures of young people who are Black or of mixed heritage.
The topics Catherine discusses with Kate Loveman include: the roles for historical fiction in representing the experiences of Black Britons; the appeal of the eighteenth-century for writers; the types of sources that can provide inspiration; the depiction of sensitive subject matter, such as slavery and sexual assault, in novels aimed at young people; and tips for aspiring authors of historical fiction.

Devoted Christian, Dominant Duchess, Diminished Historical Recognition: Author Portraiture in the Hours of Catherine of Cleves
No full textOwner portraits often appear in the illuminations or historiated initials of the popular late-medieval devotional, the book of hours. By the 13th century, a text known as the book of hours had filled a much sought-after longing of the laity to mimic the practices of the clergy. Through the production of this new lay prayer book, the practice of monastic communities gathering at canonical hours to recite prayers could now be practiced individually by lay people. These prayer books were often commissioned for, and at times by, women. This paper will discuss one specific book of hours, commissioned by a 15th century Duchess, Catherine of Cleves. The Hours of Catherine of Cleves, illuminated by the Master of Catherine of Cleves, a famously original artist recognized as the finest illuminator of the medieval northern Netherlands, is a masterpiece. The incredibly detailed miniatures display not only a unique and lavish display of biblical narrative, but the author portraits and full pages on which they appear offer a very personal look into the life and priorities of its owner and commissioner, Catherine of Cleves. This paper seeks to explore the leaves of the Hours of Catherine of Cleves where her portrait appears. I examine the purposeful prominence of feminine themes as well as emphasis on her personal heraldry and ancestors, rather than that of her husband. These purposeful emphases support that Catherine was not only the commissioner, but also involved in artistic decisions surrounding key images included in her book of hours.</p

Gender and the politics of the gaze in Bronte's Wuthering Heights
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2009.O objetivo deste estudo é apresentar uma análise de como a imagem de Catherine é moldada pelo olhar masculino, como ela enfrenta os três tipos de olhar - o olhar dos personagens, o olhar do leitor, e o olhar do autor - e finalmente, se o olhar masculino é interrompido. O parâmetro teórico desta análise, o conceito do olhar masculino, é teorizado por Laura Mulvey no artigo "Prazer Visual e Cinema Narrativo" (1975) o qual critica a relação entre o olhar masculino e a imagem feminina do prazer visual moldado pela sociedade patriarcal. Através da crítica de Mulvey do prazer visual generizado em filmes, que pertence ao contexto do cinema clássico de Hollywood, articulo sua teoria em relação ao romance Wuthering Heights de Emily Brontë para examinar a dinâmica do olhar masculino em relação à personagem feminina Catherine. Este estudo teve também por objetivo analisar o quanto o paradigma teórico de Mulvey produzido para cinema poderia ser aplicado especificamente em um texto literário escrito no século XIX.The objective of this thesis is to present an analysis of whether Catherine's image has been shaped by the male gaze, how she contends with the three looks of the male gaze - the look of the characters, the look of the reader, and the look of the author - and finally, how the male gaze is broken. The theoretical parameter of this analysis, the concept of the male gaze, is theorized by Laura Mulvey in the article "Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema" (1975) which critiques the relation between the male gaze and the female image within the patriarchal molding of visual pleasure. Borrowing Mulvey's critique of the gendering of visual pleasure in films, which pertains to the context of classical Hollywood cinema, I have articulated her theory in relation to Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights, to examine the dynamics of the male gaze regarding the female character, Catherine. This study also aimed at examing the extent to which Mulvey's theoretical paradigm produced for cinema could be articulated specifically in relation to a literary text written in the nineteenth century
