Hardcover. Condizione: Very good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very good. First Printing [Stated]. [8], 311, [1] pages. Illustrations. Appendix. Notes. Index. Typed Holiday Greetings December 2015 from Norton Garfinkle and Sally Minard presenting a copy of this book to the recipient laid in. Harold Holzer (born February 5, 1949) is… a scholar of Abraham Lincoln and the political culture of the American Civil War Era. He serves as director of Hunter College's Roosevelt House Public Policy Institute. Holzer previously spent twenty-three years as senior vice president for external affairs at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York before retiring in 2015. In his work as a historian Holzer has authored, co-authored, and edited 56 books and contributed more than 600 articles to magazines and journals, plus chapters and forewords for 71 additional books. In 2008, Holzer received the National Humanities Medal from President Bush and The Lincoln Medal of Honor from the Lincoln Society of Springfield, Illinois, the state's highest honor. Norton Garfinkle (born February 26, 1931) is an American economist, writer, and businessman. He is a Phi Beta Kappa graduate with honors from Columbia University and did graduate work at Columbia University and Princeton University. He taught economics and economic history at Amherst College, and was an editor the Journal of Economic History. Garfinkle is Chairman of the Future of American Democracy Foundation, a nonprofit, nonpartisan foundation in partnership with Yale University Press and the Yale Center for International and Area Studies, "dedicated to research and education aimed at renewing and sustaining the historic vision of American democracy". In A Just and Generous Nation, the eminent historian Harold Holzer and the noted economist Norton Garfinkle present a groundbreaking new account of the beliefs that inspired our sixteenth president to go to war when the Southern states seceded from the Union. Rather than a commitment to eradicating slavery or a defense of the Union, they argue, Lincoln's guiding principle was the defense of equal economic opportunity. Lincoln firmly believed that the government's primary role was to ensure that all Americans had the opportunity to better their station in life. As president, he worked tirelessly to enshrine this ideal within the federal government. He funded railroads and canals, supported education, and, most importantly, issued the Emancipation Proclamation, which opened the door for former slaves to join white Americans in striving for self-improvement. In our own age of unprecedented inequality, A Just and Generous Nation reestablishes Lincoln's legacy as the protector not just of personal freedom but of the American dream itself. Derived from a Kirkus review: The acclaimed Lincoln scholar and an economist make the argument that Abraham Lincoln worked tirelessly to maintain economic opportunity for all peoplea "right to rise" concept that has been sacred to politicians from then to the present. Lincoln wasn't exactly an abolitionist, write Holzer (Lincoln and the Power of the Press, 2014, etc.) and Garfinkle (Future of American Democracy Foundation), but he envisioned that all Americans could embrace the "American dream," from rags to riches as he hadeven African-Americans. The authors concentrate their study on evidence of speeches and acts of Lincoln's presidency that demonstrated his pursuit of "economic opportunity for the widest possible circle of hardworking Americans." Lincoln hoped to extend Northern middle-class society into the new territories, and he abhorred the Southern aristocratic mindset that was opposed to social mobility through tariffs and internal improvementse.g., public investment in infrastructure. New Western territories were, for Lincoln, meant for poor whites to "go and better their condition" and not for the spread of an institution, though protected by the Constitution, that restricted social mobility and depressed wages. The authors carefully sift Lincoln's speeches, beginning in 1854 with his shrewd political ca. Don Pollard [Holzer photograph] and Alan Perlman [ (illustratore).

Paperback. Condizione: Near Fine. Book. Complete set of Stephen Willats' seminal periodical 'Control'. First 5 issues: 310 x 225 mm with screenprinted wrappers. Later issues have printed pictorial wrappers and are slightly smaller in format. Since 1965, this pioneering conceptual art magazine has published original artwork and w…riting from over 150 artists, alongside collectives and collaboratives such as Artists Placement Group. Issue 13 features an original work by Anish Kapoor of an insect-object sprayed blue; together with a photocopy collage intervention by Glenys Johnson entitled Agent Orange. Issue 3 comes complete with inserts: Poem-Blanc by John Sharkey and Peter Upward's untitled painting. This seminal publication is significant for its community-based approach, and its theories based on cybernetics and social science. Its content rejected a traditional mode of criticism and instead concentrated on theoretical ideas, technical models and artistic methods: Control is purely a magazine of art theory, in the sense that it presented text by artists looking at the thinking behind their work (Willats, Publishing Interventions, 2 in In Numbers: Serial Publications by artists since 1955, PPP Editions, Zurich, 1999, p. 129). While within the remit of the art magazine, Control is notable for its interdisciplinary reach. As the artist has commented, the magazine's origins were a reaction to a very strong inheritance from previous decades that constrained the artists into very set roles of painting, sculpture and traditional mediums (ibid).
