1682028701UK 1682. First Edition . Paper. Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. An Original Handwritten and Signed Property Deed Transfer in Relation and signed by Robert Jago of Wendron. The land in question is in the parish of Helston. Dated 1682. The only person of that period in this small village of Wendrun was the Reverend Rev Robert Jago who was a famous Ghost Layer. According to Robert Hunt in his book The Popular Romance of the West Country published in Reverend Robert Jago was able to converse with the 'invisible world' and the people of Wendron where he was the vicar in the 17th century believed him to have supernatural powers. Hunt wrote that the whole community was frightened of Parson Jago. They believed he had second sight and would use his powers to see if they were behaving themselves! He was able to instantly pick out a thief in a crowd and any guilty person felt instantly compelled to confess their sins the moment he looked at them. It seems to me that Jago ruled over his parish with a fist of iron perhaps creating this terrifying persona to keep his congregation in line. The most famous story about Parson Jago is also the most bizarre. He is said to have had spirits which waited on him and were in effect his servants. These ghosts were invisible to everyone until the clergyman commanded them to appear. The parson rode far and wide over the moorland of his parish. He never took a groom with him for the moment he alighted from his horse he had only to strike the earth with his whip and up came a demon-groom to take charge of the steed." As for his ghost-laying skills Jago reportedly exorcised a ghost who had been haunting a local farmer. Close to Wendron there is a crossroads on a road called Rowes Lane. The crossroads was supposedly the final resting place of a man called Tucker who had taken his own life. Sadly victims of suicide weren't allowed to be buried in consecrated ground at that time. According to the story the lane was haunted and avoided by local people after dark but the farmer coming home drunk from market decided to walk down it and began shouting 'Arise Tucker!'. This he did several times and eventually Tucker's ghost appeared and from then on would not leave the farmer alone. Jago was sent for and was able to lay the spirit on Tucker to rest with ease. Robert Jago died in 1685. Size 275mm x 180mm. Condition is average. Age toned and heavily stained. Light folding creases. More images can be taken upon request. Ref17703 <br/> <br/> unknown

2020230184New Haven - London: Yale University Press 2020. Rilegato sovracoperta hard cover dust jacket. Perfetto Mint. Testo di Kathleen Pyne. Illustrazioni in bianco e nero dedicate al lavoro di Anne Brigman. Edizione inglese. 4to 285x225 cm. pp. 244. Perfetto Mint. Prima edizione First Edition. <em><strong>The life and work of an essential photographer whose feminism and pictorialist images distanced her from the mainstream.</strong></em><br /><em>In the first book devoted to Anne Brigman 1869&ndash";1950 Kathleen Pyne traces the groundbreaking photographer's life from Hawai‘i to the Sierra and elsewhere in California revealing how her photographs emerged from her experience of local place and cultural politics. Brigman's work caught the eye of the well-known photographer Alfred Stieglitz who welcomed her as one of the original members of his <strong>Photo-Secession</strong> group. He promoted her work as exemplary of his modernism and praised her Sierra landscapes with female nudes—work that at the time separated Brigman from the spiritualized upper-class femininity of other women photographers. Stieglitz later drew on Brigman's images of the expressive female body in shaping the public persona of Georgia O'Keeffe into his ideal woman artist. This nuanced account reasserts Brigman's place among photography's most important early advocates and provides new insight into the gender and racialist dynamics of the early twentieth-century art world especially on the West Coast of the United States.</em> <em><strong>La vita e l'opera di una fotografa importantissima il cui femminismo e le cui immagini pittorialiste la allontanarono dal mainstream artistico dell'epoca.<br /></strong></em><em>Nel primo libro dedicato ad Anne Brigman 1869-1950 Kathleen Pyne ripercorre la vita dell'innovativa fotografa dalle Hawaii alla Sierra e altrove in California rivelando come le sue fotografie siano emerse dall'esperienza dei luoghi e delle politiche culturali locali. Il lavoro di Brigman attirò l'attenzione del noto fotografo Alfred Stieglitz che la accolse come uno dei membri originali del suo gruppo<strong> Photo-Secession</strong>. Stieglitz promosse il suo lavoro come fondamentale per il suo modernismo e lodò i suoi paesaggi diella Sierra con nudi femminili - un lavoro che all'epoca separava Brigman dalla femminilità spiritualizzata dell'alta borghesia di altre donne fotografe. In seguito Stieglitz si ispirò alle immagini del corpo femminile di Brigman per plasmare il personaggio pubblico di Georgia O'Keeffe. Questo resoconto ricco di sfumature riafferma il posto di Brigman tra i più" importanti sostenitori della fotografia e fornisce nuovi spunti di riflessione sulle dinamiche di genere e razziali del mondo dell'arte del primo Novecento soprattutto sulla costa occidentale degli Stati Uniti.</em> Yale University Press, hardcover
