Free Download Katherine Manthorne, "Film and Modern American Art: The Dialogue between Cinema and Painting "
English | ISBN: 0815374194 | 2019 | 154 pages | PDF | 17 MB
Between the 1890s and the 1930s, movie going became an established feature of everyday life across America. Movies constituted an enormous visual data bank and changed the way artist and public alike interpreted images. This book explores modern painting as a response to, and an appropriation of, the aesthetic possibilities pried open by cinema from its invention until the outbreak of World War II, when both the art world and the film industry changed substantially. Artists were watching movies, filmmakers studied fine arts; the membrane between media was porous, allowing for fluid exchange. Each chapter focuses on a suite of films and paintings, broken down into facets and then reassembled to elucidate the distinctive art-film nexus at successive historic moments.

Free Download Field Environmental Philosophy: Education for Biocultural Conservation by Ricardo Rozzi, Alejandra Tauro, Noa Avriel-Avni, T. Wright, Roy H. May Jr.
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 613 Pages | ISBN : 3031233670 | 80.5 MB
This fifth volume in the Ecology and Ethics series integrates key concepts of the previous four volumes by addressing biocultural conservation through novel educational methods. In Field Environmental Philosophy (FEP), the authors undertake two complementary tasks. First, they address a problematic facet of education as an indirect driver of a global change and biocultural homogenization. Second, they contribute to solve the former problems by introducing the FEP method as well as other educational approaches from around the world that value and foster conservation of biological and cultural diversity. A particular emphasis is therefore on the integration of sciences, arts, humanities, and ethics into educational practices that involve the participation of local communities with their diverse forms of ecological knowledge and practices.

Free Download Extractive Farming or Bio Farming?: Making a Better Choice for the 21st Century by Kodoth Prabhakaran Nair
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 66 Pages | ISBN : 3031346947 | 1.4 MB
Global farming is at a crucial juncture in its evolution. Over 9000 years ago, humanity shifted from a hunter-gatherer lifestyle to stationary agriculture, sparking the "Agricultural Revolution" and putting soil at the forefront of agricultural focus. However, contemporary farming practices have seen an extreme shift in focus from the original revolution, that is, from tending plants to highly chemical-centric and extractive farming methods known as the "green revolution".

Free Download Exploring Human Behavior Through Isotope Analysis: Applications in Archaeological Research by Melanie M. Beasley, Andrew D. Somerville
English | PDF EPUB (True) | 2023 | 308 Pages | ISBN : 3031322665 | 27.5 MB
This edited volume compiles a series of chapters written by experts of isotopic analysis in order to highlight the utility of various isotope systems in the reconstruction of past human behaviors. Rather than grouping contributions by specific isotopes or analytical techniques, as many isotope review articles are arranged, the volume organizes chapters by broadly defined themes of archaeological research. These include: paleodiet and life histories, human-animal interactions, and migration and mobility. In this sense, the book is arranged with the intent of being as much question based as method based.
