185427204New York 1854. Broadside 9" x 14 3/4". Printed in three columns. Lightly margin-spotted old folds else Very Good.<br/><br/> A rare broadside issued by Northern Democrats opposed to the Kansas- Nebraska Act which authorized the entry of slaves into that Territory and its opponents feared would nationalize slavery. The Act passed a few months earlier in 1854 would split the Democratic Party create and energize the new Republican Party and pave the way for a Republican victory in 1860. This broadside-- signed in type by Hale of New Hampshire Hiram Barney and John Jay-- is one of the earliest expressions of Northern Democratic dissent from the National Democratic Administration's Kansas policy. <br/> The broadside denounces the "perfidy" of the Act's proponents its overthrow of the Missouri Compromise its blessings upon "the curse of slavery" and its affront to white workingmen. "The true issue is before you- economically the policy of the slave power is to depreciate the value of labor by multiplying laborers to whom no wages are to be paid. Politically the slave power aims to rule the country by a slaveholding oligarchy." <br/>OCLC 28479577 1- Syracuse 79055522 2- AAS Yale. Not in LCP Sabin Blockson Dumond. unknown books

Minor pencil underlining and notes by Jenifer Neils to a few pages [for a review by Neils]. Else book has minor shelfwear with a couple of rounded corners. Minor creasing along top edge of DJ. ; The pictures on Athenian vases of the late Archaic period often play upon the tension between an image and its material support, and between the sense of depth and the sense of surface. Richard Neer's study tracks design and imagery on Athenian vases in four domains: the symposium, with its elaborate riddles and poems; the development of 'naturalistic' techniques, such as foreshortening and shading; the birth of self-portraiture at the end of the sixth century; and the treatment of overtly political subject-matter in the early democracy. In each case, formal ambiguity provided vase painters and their audiences with a means of creating new conceptions of civic identity. Focusing on 'how pictures show what they show' leads the author to a re-examination of basic ideas about Greek art and its history, with particular regard to naturalism, realism, allegory, and the relation of ceramics to social life. ; Cambridge Studies In Classical Art And Iconography; 9.9 X 7.1 X 0.8 inches; 328 pages
