"The Grove Encyclopedia of Materials and Techniques deals with all aspects of materials, techniques, conservation, and restoration in both traditional and nontraditional media, including ceramics, sculpture, metalwork, painting, works on paper, textiles, video, digital art, and more. Drawing upon the expansive scholarship in The Dictionary of Art and adding new entries, this work is a comprehensive reference resource for artists, art dealers, collectors, curators, conservators, students, researchers, and scholars." "Similar in design to The Grove Encyclopedia of Decorative Arts, this one-volume reference work contains articles of various lengths in alphabetical order. The shorter, more factual articles are combined with larger, multi-section articles tracing the development of materials and techniques in various geographical locations. The Encyclopedia provides unparalleled scope and depth, and it offers fully updated articles and bibliography as well as over 150 illustrations and color plates." "The Grove Encyclopedia of Materials and Techniques offers scholarly information on materials and techniques in art for anyone who studies, creates, collects, or deals in works of art. The entries are written to be accessible to a wide range of readers, and the work is designed as a reliable and convenient resource covering this essential area in the visual arts."

This pioneering work revises our notions of the origins and early development of textiles in Europe and the Near East. Using innovative linguistic techniques, along with methods from palaeobiology and other fields, it shows that spinning and pattern weaving began far earlier than has been supposed. Prehistoric Textiles made an unsurpassed leap in the social and cultural understanding of textiles in humankind's early history. Cloth making was an industry that consumed more time and effort, and was more culturally significant to prehistoric cultures, than anyone assumed before the book's publication. The textile industry is in fact older than pottery--and perhaps even older than agriculture and stockbreeding. It probably consumed far more hours of labor per year, in temperate climates, than did pottery and food production put together. And this work was done primarily by women. Up until the Industrial Revolution, and into this century in many peasant societies, women spent every available moment spinning, weaving, and sewing. The author, Elizabeth Wayland Barber, demonstrates command of an almost unbelievably disparate array of disciplines--from historical linguistics to archaeology and paleobiology, from art history to the practical art of weaving. Her passionate interest in the subject matter leaps out on every page. Barber, a professor of linguistics and archaeology, developed expert sewing and weaving skills as a small girl under her mother's tutelage. One could say she had been born and raised to write this book. Because modern textiles are almost entirely made by machines, we have difficulty appreciating how time-consuming and important the premodern textile industry was. This book opens our eyes to this crucial area of prehistoric human culture.

Professor Rudolf Sturm of Skidmore College was commissioned in 1965 to undertake Czechoslovakia in an ad hoc appointment as a consultant to the Slavic and Central European Division. In selecting books and periodicals for inclusion, the potential users of the bibliography include: librarians building their collections relating to Czechoslovakia; specialists dealing with the area in depth; and, it is hoped, general readers with only occasional and less specialized interests. Assuming that it would be used primarily in English-speaking countries, it seemed appropriate to include publications first of all in English, then in French and German, and some also in Italian and Spanish. Books in Czech and Slovak are listed only when they are of basic importance for a subject for which no adequate Western imprint is available. Thus, this guide is expected to be of interest and assistance to beginners as well as to the more advanced students of Slavic and Mid-European affairs.

"This book represents an achievement in compiling and putting into order all the facts discovered in an intensive four-year study. Included is an important study of 'Indigofera tinctoria', the beautiful but malodorous dye plant, indigo; the tale reads like a novel and is the complete study in book form of the strange dye plant and of the uses of the blue dye. The book, enhanced by Mrs. Pettit's understanding of techniques and by authoriatative and scholarly facts gleaned from New England archives, also gives a lively picture of the eigteenth-century dyer's and printer's life as an artisan in the American colonies." - book jacket.
