Paperpack. Condition: Sehr gut. 360 Seiten. Sehr gutes Exemplar. / EN: Very good copy. - Los Angeles is a city on the Pacific Rim where things appear on edge, for they lack a permanent footing even while occupying a specific locale. The city's genius loci produces this dual vision of fixed place in a state of constant dislocatio…n. It is only appropriate for the edge-bound Getty Center to initiate a series of publications that aim to expose the historical study of artifacts to the oscillation of rigorous debate. Each of these books proceeds from a specific body of historical material, not because that material is in itself inherently imbued with controversy but because its exposure to different disciplinary approaches raises new questions of interpretation. In the realm of historical studies, issues often emerge at the intersection of the various perspectives scholars have constructed for the examination of their subjects. As their debate refracts and refocuses the material under scrutiny, it also invites reflection upon itself and thereby exposes the assumptions and tendencies of scholarship to no less assiduous criticism than it does the underpinnings of its subjects. / Contents: CONTENTS -- Introduction -- Thomas W. Gaehtgens and Heinz Ickstadt -- American Genesis: The Landing of Christopher Columbus Barbara Groseclose -- Copley, West, and the Tradition of European High Art Werner Busch -- Self, Time, and Object in American Art: Copley, Lane, and Homer Barbara Novak -- Romantic Landscape Painting in America: History as Nature, Nature as History Martin Christadler -- Inventing the Myth of the American Frontier: Bingham's Images of Fur Traders and Flatboatmen as Symbols of the Expanding Nation Françoise Forster-Hahn -- Fictions of Nationhood: Leutze's Pursuit of an American History Painting in Düsseldorf Barbara Gaehtgens -- Kindred Spirits: Notes on Swiss and American Painting of the Nineteenth Century William Hauptman -- Strategies of Recognition: The Conditioning of the American Artist between Marginality and Fame Ursula Frohne -- Winslow Homer's National Style Nicolai Cikovsky, Jr. -- The Senses of Illusion Olaf Hansen -- Resisting Modernism: American Painting in the Culture of Conflict Kathleen Pyne -- Urban Iconography in Nineteenth-Century American Painting: From Impressionism to the Ash Can School Hubert Beck -- Biographical Notes on the Authors -- Index.
