A scholarly catalogue raisonné: George Wilson and the engraved fan leaf design 1795-1801
No full textABSTRACT
This research thesis offers a small but comprehensive scholarly catalogue raisonné of the surviving unmounted fan leaves designed and printed by the late eighteenth-century English fan leaf engraver, George Wilson (active before 1795-after 1801). Wilson’s extant output of nineteen fan leaf engravings published in London now exist in storage within the Prints and Drawing Department of the British Museum, after the receipt of two bequests from Lady Charlotte Schreiber (1812-1895) in the late nineteenth century. The individual fan leaf designs discussed in this catalogue raisonné include a number of reprinted fan leaves from the same engraving design.
There follows a chronological catalogue listing, and discussion of, all the different fan leaves designed by Wilson, collected by Lady Schreiber and subsequently bequeathed to the British Museum. The variety of subject matter depicted on these fan leaf designs underscore the differing types of themes Wilson engaged with in his engraved production. Analysis of the three main areas of Wilson’s fan leaf design work, female ‘advisory’ fan leaves, overtly satirical, and nationalistic fan leaves, reveal that Wilson’s fan leaf imagery engaged, to a great extent, with cultural concerns about the turbulences of late eighteenth-century life in London, as well as effectively modernising aesthetic precedents and contemporary graphic design. In particular, it becomes apparent that Wilson’s fan leaves effectively engage with late eighteenth-century feminine pre-occupations of choosing the right moral path to happiness, moderation in daily life, marriage and bearing children, in addition to illustrating the perceived multitude of follies translated from contemporary literary and pictorial sources. One of the predominant concerns in his catalogue of work is revealed to be the age old theme of the cycle of birth, reproduction and death, alongside a sustained pictorial focus upon feminine concerns and pre-occupations
Yale Kamisar: Warrior Scholar
No full textMy association with Yale Kamisar dates back to the 1950s. At that time I became aware of the interesting publications of a young faculty member at the University of Minnesota. The articles were well done, most of them dealing with the Supreme Court\u27s notable expansion of constitutional doctrine relating to criminal procedure, then at full tide, a field in which I also was writing. In addition, Yale had published a remarkable article on the subject of euthanasia, impressive for the thoroughness of its research and the clarity and force of its argument. Fortunately, I decided to write to Yale and express my appreciation for the work he was doing. It is possible that I am the author of Yale\u27s first fan letter. He responded warmly, and there began a conversation that has continued for almost a half-century. The interchange has been one of the profitable and pleasant features of my time in the law schools
Eadington Fellow Colloquium: Yale Belanger
No full textThis event was hosted by Special Collections and Archives and Center for Gaming Research.
The event featured UNLV Center for Gaming Research\u27s latest Eadington Fellow, Yale Belanger, professor of Political Science at the University of Lethbridge in the province of Alberta, Canada. Belanger is a member of the Royal Society of Canada, College of New Scholars, Artists, and Scientists, author of the book Gambling with the Future, and editor of First Nations Gaming in Canada.
He will be using the Katherine Spilde Papers (MS- 00092) to explore how tribal community leaders originally envisioned utilizing gaming revenues to fund cultural investments such as language retention or elders’ programs, and whether they and their fellow community members assigned cultural investments a greater value than economic investments

Clyde Summers and the Early Yale Years
No full textWho ever heard of dedicating a casebook to the senior author of a rival book? Two explanations are possible. In this case both are true. The rival casebook is no real competition; but its senior author is Mr. Labor Law. The dedication in the tenth edition of the leading casebook reads: "To Clyde W. Summers. Exemplary Scholar, Teacher, and Colleague Whose Probing, Farsighted, Constructive and Compassionate Writings Provide a Model for All in the Field of Labor Law." And that too is true. Clyde and I came to Yale together in the Fall of 1956. I had just finished a clerkship and was, more or less, starting out. Clyde was a distinguished visiting professor and, during the course of the year, accepted the law faculty's offer of tenure. That was a happy day for Yale
Number Culture: Old Babylonian Mathematics at Yale
No full textThe Yale Babylonian Collection houses virtually every genre, type, and period of ancient Mesopotamian writing, ranging from about 3000 B.C.E. to the early Christian Era. Among its treasures are tablets of the Epic of Gilgamesh and other narratives, the world’s oldest recipes, a large corpus of magic spells and mathematical texts, stunning miniature art carved on seals, and poetry by the first named author in world history, the princess Enheduanna.
This unique volume, the companion book to an exhibition at Yale’s Peabody Museum of Natural History, celebrates the Yale Babylonian Collection and its formal affiliation with the museum. Included are essays by world-renowned experts on the exhibition themes, photographs and illustrations, and a catalog of artifacts in the collection that present the ancient Near East in the light of present-day discussion of lived experiences, focusing on family life and love, education and scholarship, identity, crime and transgression, demons, and sickness
The everchanging role of the National Football League sports fan, in a world of billion-dollar dreams, global domination, and poor consumer relations.
No full textM.F.A. -- University of Baltimore, 2020Thesis submitted to the Yale Gordon College of Arts and Sciences of the University of Baltimore in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Fine Arts in Integrated Design.The everchanging role of the National Football League (NFL) sports fan, in a world of billion-dollar dreams, global domination, and poor consumer relations. The sport fan has many reasons that they love watching professional sports, most of which are personal to them. These are a number of personal identifiers and motivations that differ from fan to fan, but in no way reflect the business practices found within most professional sports, especially the NFL. As the fans and the NFL continue on from season to season, the fan needs remain stay the same, yet the NFL’s continue to grow along with their revenue. How can these two entities continue on with such different expectations without experiencing a conflict of interest
