Vivian Maier / John Maloof (EDT) … publishing house: powerHouse Books 2011 - 11
Product Description A good street photographer must be possessed of many talents: an eye for detail, light, and composition; impeccable timing; a populist or humanitarian outlook; and a tireless ability to constantly shoot, shoot, shoot, shoot and never miss a moment. It is hard enough to find these qualities in trained photographers with the benefit of schooling and mentors and a community of fellow artists and aficionados supporting and rewarding their efforts. It is incredibly rare to find it in someone with no formal training and no network of peers. Yet Vivian Maier is all of these things, a professional nanny, who from the 1950s until the 1990s took over 100,000 photographs worldwide—from France to New York City, to Chicago and dozens of other countries—and yet showed the results to no one. The photos are amazing both for the breadth of the work and for the high quality of the humorous, moving, beautiful, and raw images of all facets of city life in America’s post-war golden age. It wasn’t until realtor and amateur historian John Maloof stumbled upon a box of anonymous negatives in a Chicago auction house just a few years ago that any of her marvelous work saw the light of day. Presented here for the first time in print, Vivian Maier: Street Photographer collects the first wave of the best of her incredible body of work—much of which still hasn’t been enlarged or in some case even developed into negatives. Hidden treasures like this don’t come along every day, and powerHouse is excited and honored to present this astounding body of never-before-seen work to the public at large. About the Author There is still very little known about the life of Vivian Maier. What is known is that she was born in New York in 1926 and worked as a nanny for a family on Chicago’s North Shore during the 50s and 60s. Seemingly without a family of her own, the children she cared for eventually acted as caregivers for Maier herself in the autumn of her life. She took hundreds of thousands of photographs in her lifetime, but never shared them with anyone. Maier lost possession of her art when her storage locker was sold off for non-payment. She passed away in 2009 at the age of 83. John Maloof is a historian, street photographer, and former real estate agent from Chicago’s Northwest Side. He discovered the first negatives of Vivian Maier’s work in 2007 while compiling a book about the history of the neighborhood where he grew up.

A Tribe Called Quest genre: Hip Hop
release date 2016-11-18 publisher: EPIC RECORDS GROUP
On their final album, Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, Ali Shaheed Muhammad, and Jarobi rekindle a chemistry that endeared them to hip-hop fans worldwide. Filled with exploratory instrumental beds, creative samples, supple rhyming, and serious knock, it passes the headphone and car stereo test. “Kids…” is like a rap nerd’s fever dream, Andre 3000 and Q-Tip slaying bars. Phife—who passed away in March 2016—is the album’s scion, his roughneck style and biting humor shining through on “Black Spasmodic” and “Whateva Will Be.” “We the People,” “The Donald,” and “The Killing Season” (featuring an uncredited Kanye West) show ATCQ’s ability to move minds as well as butts. We got it from Here—Thank You 4 your service is not a wake or a comeback—it’s an extended visit with a long-missed friend, and a mic-dropping reminder of Tribe’s importance and influence.

·海登·怀特的《元史学》是当代西方历史哲学研究中语言学转向的标志,也代表了20世纪下半叶历史哲学的主要成就之一。 ·以19世纪欧洲八位主要的史学家与历史哲学家为例,证明史与诗并不存在截然断开的鸿沟,每一位历史学家的诗性预构行为最终构成了他们自己的一套独特的历史哲学。 ·本书尝试构建新颖的史学理论体系,例证丰满,跳出传统樊篱,指出了历史学的一个重要本质。 本书指出任何史学作品都包含了一种深层结构、一种未经批评而被接受的范式,它是诗学的,也是语言学的。书中以十九世纪八位有代表性的史学思想家为例,展示其历史著述所采用的主导性比喻方式,从而确证历史作品普遍存在的诗学本质。
