Breaking barriers
Previous research has shown that female and Hispanic students who are underrepresented in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) face more educational barriers than their non-Hispanic, male peers. However, little research has been conducted on the effects of intersectional identities in the STEM space. In an effort to bridge the gap in underrepresented students' experience, the PSEG Institute for Sustainability Studies organizes …
Meubles
Medieval furnishings preserved in aristocratic estates and ecclesiastical institutions took on new life in the nineteenth century as the turmoil of the French Revolution reactivated their use value, transforming them into collectibles, fuel, or raw materials for new building projects. This essay relies on the taxonomies of reuse proposed by archaeologist Michael Schiffer to evaluate the preservation, recycling, and repurposing of objects such as …
Appropriating Japonisme at the 1900 Exposition
Japanese exhibits filled the 1900 Paris Exposition, from the official pavilion at the Trocadéro to ‘geishas' performing in the Panorama du Tour du Monde. The highlight for French reporters, however, was actress Sada Yacco's performances at the Théâtre Loïe Fuller on the rue de Paris. The former geisha joined American Fuller in creating original spectacles that captivated audiences not as Japanese ‘ethnography', as in other exhibits, but as ‘art’.…
Reframing Japonisme
Japonisme, the nineteenth-century fascination for Japanese art, has generated an enormous body of scholarship over the last twenty years, but most of it neglects women, who also acquired objects from the Far East and displayed them in their homes before selling or bequeathing them to museums. The stories of women collectors and shopkeepers rarely appear in memoirs left by those associated with the japoniste movement. The present volume thus bring…
Ethnographic Collecting and African Agency in Early Colonial West Africa
The early collections from Africa in Liverpool’s World Museum reflect the city’s longstanding shipping and commercial links with Africa’s Atlantic coast. A principal component of these collections is an assemblage of several thousand artefacts from western Africa that were transported to institutions in northwest England between 1894 and 1916 by the Liverpool steam ship engineer Arnold Ridyard. While Ridyard’s collecting efforts can be seen to ha…
Un « pèlerinage à l’oracle »
En prenant pour point de départ les articles et livres que les écrivains américains Edith Wharton et Henry James ont consacrés à la maison de George Sand à Nohant, cet article se propose d’examiner comment, et avec quelle complexité, les publications de célébrités peuvent renforcer pour le public l’importance culturelle des maisons d’écrivains, une catégorie de maison-musée dotée d’une valeur mémorielle particulière. La visite de la maison de San…
Consuming the Past
First published in 2003 Consuming the Past covers pilgrimages to popular festivals, from modern spectacles to advertising, from the work of avant-garde painters to the novels of Emile Zola, and explores the complexity of the fin-de-siècle French fascination with the Middle Ages. The authors map the cultural history of the period from the end of the Franco-Prussian war to the 1905 separation of Church and State illuminating the powerful appeal tha…

Le Voile du bonheur
Brûler du parfum occupe une place centrale dans Le Voile du bonheur (1901), une pièce « imitée du chinois » de l'homme d'État Georges Clemenceau. On examine ici la façon dont Clemenceau, un connaisseur de l'emploi culturel des parfums asiatiques, joue avec les stéréotypes littéraires du parfum pour proposer un autre modèle de sociabilité aux Français empêtrés dans des conflits politiques et religieux de la fin du xix e siècle
Disruptive Technology
In this article, Patrick Modiano’s 2014 Nobel Prize acceptance speech serves as a springboard to consider the lieu commun that “disruptive technology” is killing both literature and the contemporary press. Modiano’s depiction of himself as part of an “intermediate generation,” trapped between the intense focus of great nineteenth-century novelists and the many distractions of contemporary writers, cleverly invoked millennial anxieties related to …

Medievalism
Definitions of key words and terms for the study of medievalism. The discipline of medievalism has produced a great deal of scholarship acknowledging the "makers" of the Middle Ages: those who re-discovered the period from 500 to 1500 by engaging with its cultural works, seeking inspiration from them, or fantasizing about them. Yet such approaches - organized by time period, geography, or theme - often lack an overarching critical framework. This…
Imperialism, Art and Restitution
Edited by John Henry Merryman ISBN 0-521-85929-8 (hardback) Cambridge University Press, 2006 Imperialism, Art and Restitution, edited by John Henry Merryman, features nine papers originally present
From the living room to the museum and back again
No longer the sole province of the cultivated private collector, by the fin de siècle medieval works could be seen and enjoyed by a large public. This article raises several important questions related to the intersection of private and public appropriation of medieval objects in the final decades of the nineteenth century. What was the relationship between the antiquary of old and the modern collector who filled apartments with medieval treasure…
