199734627Univ. New. 1997. Paperback. 0916724948 . FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - FLAWLESS COPY - 64 pages 7 7/8 x 11 3/4" 29 illustrations 28 in color. -- Canopy-a temporary public artwork created by British artist David Ward-was installed in Harvard Yard in May 1994. Thirty separate sound sources hung from the trees in the Yard each playing the recorded voices of readers speaking in various languages. The voices told stories about place including a selection from Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino along with personal memories poems and folk tales. The work occurred each evening between dusk and darkness for a two-week period. As natural light fell white light cast horizontally from the tops of flanking buildings gradually took over from the setting sun catching the leaves of the trees. The work's magical effects were praised by the Boston Globe which listed it as the year's best art exhibition. The book consists of a series of responses to the work from the poetical to the theoretical reflecting the range of deep thought provoked by the experience of Canopy itself whether that thought was emotional or theoretical. This project evolved from an artist's residency organized and sponsored by five organizations within Harvard University: the Harvard University Art Museums the Office for the Arts at Harvard and Radcliffe the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts the Department of Visual and Environmental Studies and the Graduate School of Design. Copublished with the Office for the Arts at Harvard and Radcliffe. -- with a bonus offer-- . Univ paperback

It was first published irregularly in eight instalments between December 1851 and May 1853 in the magazine Household Words which was edited by Charles Dickens. It was then published with minor revision in book form in 1853.BackgroundThe first instalment in Household Words which became the novel's first two chapters was originally published "as a self-contained sketch" and the "irregular way" the further seven instalments were published suggests that it took Mrs Gaskell time to think of making this into a book.She was during this period busy writing the three volume novel Ruth which was published January 1853.Cranford has been described as "practically structurelesss" and given the irregular nature of how it was first published it is not surprising that it lacks unity. A. W. Ward describes the novel as a "brief series of sketches strung together with easy grace."The small country town of Cranford corresponds to Knutsford Cheshire where Elizabeth Gaskell had spent much of her childhood and where she returned after she married. However the story's narrator comes from the nearby industrial city of Drumble which corresponds to Manchester where the author lived when writing the novel.SynopsisThe work had no real plot but is a collection of satirical sketches which sympathetically portray changing small town customs and values in mid Victorian England.Harkening back to memories of her childhood in the small Cheshire town of Knutsford Cranford is Elizabeth Gaskell's affectionate portrait of people and customs that were already becoming anachronisms.Elizabeth Cleghorn Gaskell n�e Stevenson; 29 September 1810 - 12 November 1865 often referred to as Mrs Gaskell was an English novelist biographer and short story writer. Her novels offer a detailed portrait of the lives of many strata of Victorian society including the very poor and are of interest to social historians as well as lovers of literature. Her first novel Mary Barton was published in 1848. Gaskell's The Life of Charlotte Bront� published in 1857 was the first biography of Bront�. In this biography she only wrote of the moral sophisticated things in Bront�'s life the rest she left out deciding that certain more salacious aspects were better kept hidden. Among Gaskell's best known novels are Cranford 1851-53 North and South 1854-55 and Wives and Daughters 1865 each having been adapted for television by the BBC.Early lifeGaskell was born Elizabeth Cleghorn Stevenson on 29 September 1810 in Lindsey Row Chelsea London at the house that is now 93 Cheyne Walk.
