  • A History of the Political Philosophers

    George CatlinBOOKHistory of the Political…2019

    Originally published in 1939, this book was intended as a guide to political theory intelligible to the common reader, with quotations from the original sources sufficiently extensive to enable them to sample for themselves the ‘taste’ and ‘colour’ of these writings. This history of theory has been placed against brief descriptions, as background, of the civilization of the times, as the reader passes down the avenues of thought from age to age. …

    The American artist George Catlin (1796–1872) was fascinated by the indigenous people of his homeland and spent many years living among them, painting them, and collecting their artefacts.

    Although he is best known for his paintings of Native Americans, George Catlin (1796–1872) also wrote books about his experiences among the indigenous peoples of the United States. During the 1830s he travelled widely in the western frontier regions with the aim of documenting the vanishing cultures of the Indians, and managed to meet 48 groups. This was a critical time for Native Americans, as US government policies were forcing many tribes off …

    Au bal calédonien, en costume indien Volume 1, p. 70-72 Je passais quelques heures chaque jour à accueillir les visiteurs dans mes salles et j’y voyais presque quotidiennement mon charmant ami C. A. Murray, venu, de nobles et élégantes dames au bras, leur donner un aperçu des mystères de la vie sauvage que mes nombreuses peintures et les objets indiens lui avaient rendus familiers. [...] Il me prit à part et m’expliqua que nous avions une occasio…

  • Le Musée de l'Humanité

    George CatlinARTICLEGradhiva2006

    Dès l’année 1832, dans une série de lettres rédigées au pied des Montagnes Rocheuses et publiées par la presse de New York, j’ai proposé que les artistes visitent les tribus indigènes d’autres régions du globe et qu’ils collectent leur matériel en suivant le plan de ma propre collection : les fruits de nos labeurs réunis auraient produit l’un des musées les plus intéressants et les plus précieux du monde. J’ai travaillé, depuis, avec la ferme con…

    Open AccessGeorge Catlin, George E G CatlinARTICLEPolitical Science Quarterly1967Cited by: 1

    Many of us were brought up in academic schools, where the examination system assumed that we would verbally acquaint ourselves with gobbets of the so-called Classics of Political Theory. The writings of Hobbes, and especially his Leviathan, provided some of these gobbets of wisdom. I should be the first to emphasize the importance, for the physician, of having heard of the work of Galen. Elsewhere I have emphasized the importance, in political ph…

La parution du numéro 3 de Gradhiva, en juin 2006, coïncide avec l’inauguration du musée du quai Branly. Coïncidence heureuse : l’Indian Gallery de Catlin fut en effet, en 1845, le premier v…
