Excerpt from Museum Stories for Children, Vol. 7: October-November, 1927 Perhaps you wonder what these creatures find to eat so high on the mountains. Much of their food consists of various kinds of moss which grow in patches among the rocks. Sometimes they eat buds and twigs of small mountain shrubs; and once in a while they come down into the forests and mountain valleys to nibble at leaves and grass. Mountain goats always manage to find enough food to keep themselves strong and fat both in summer and in winter. Wild sheep sometimes live on the same mountain as the goats; but they seldom climb as high nor stay as long in one region. Mountain sheep are often seen in flocks; and one of them sometimes stands alone on top of a rock, like a sentinel on guard. If it sees you, it may warn the others and the whole flock will bound away and disappear like magic behind the rocks. Their long slender legs carry the heavy bodies with great speed. Some mountain sheep are white; but most of them have coats so near the color of the rocks that it is hard to see the animals unless they are moving. Their hair is thick and warm, yet not at all shaggy. Sometimes in summer it becomes stained reddish-brown from the earth. The tail of a wild sheep is so short that it seems to have none at all. Every wild sheep has horns; and those of some mountain sheep are so large that the animal is called Bighorn. The horns of full-grown rams describe almost a circle; but those of ewes and lambs are short and slightly curving.

Excerpt from Museum Stories for Children Pamphlets, Vol. 28: March-April, 1937 Of all the insect pests that annoy man and animals, the worst are the flies. Few places are too cold or dark for these insects to find food on which to live. While many kinds are destructive to animals and plants, there are many other kinds which prey upon unclean materials and insects that destroy growing plants.

No other silent film director has been as extensively studied as D. W. Griffith. However, only a small group of his more than five hundred films has been the subject of a systematic analysis, and the vast majority of his other works still await proper examination. For the first time in film studies, the complete creative output of Griffith - from Professional Jealousy (1907) to The Struggle (1931) - will be explored in this multivolume collection of contributions from an international team of leading scholars in the field. Created as a companion to the ongoing retrospective held by the Pordenone Silent Film Festival, the Griffith Project is an indispensable guide to the work of a crucial figure in the arts of the nineteenth century. This volume covers the year 1913 and includes J. B. Kaufman's notes on the Griffith-supervised Liberty Belles and A Fair Rebel, as well as Griffith's first feature, Judith of Bethulia.

Focusing on his evocative and profound references to children and their stories, Children's Stories and 'Child-Time' in the Works of Joseph Cornell and the Transatlantic Avant-Garde studies the relationship between the artist's work on childhood and his search for a transfigured concept of time. This study also situates Cornell and his art in the broader context of the transatlantic avant-garde of the 1930s and 40s. Analisa Leppanen-Guerra explores the children's stories that Cornell perceived as fundamental in order to unpack the dense network of associations in his under-studied multimedia works. Moving away from the usual focus on his box constructions, the author directs her attention to Cornell's film and theater scenarios, 'explorations', 'dossiers', and book-objects. One highlight of this study is a work that may well be the first artist's book of its kind, and has only been exhibited twice: Untitled (Journal d'Agriculture Pratique), presented as Cornell's enigmatic tribute to Lewis Carroll's Alice books.

Drawing on Elaine Heumann Gurian’s fifty years of museum experience, Centering the Museum calls on the profession to help visitors experience their shared humanity and find social uses for public buildings, in order to make museums more central and useful to everyone in difficult times. Following the same format as Civilizing the Museum, this new volume includes material written especially for a re-emergent time and relevant public lectures not included in the author’s previous book. Divided into six separate content clusters, with over twenty different essays, the book identifies many small, subtle ways museums can become welcoming to more—and to all. Drawing on her extensive experience as a deputy director, senior advisor to high-profile government museums, lecturer and teacher around the world, the author provides recommendations for inclusive actions by intertwining sociological thinking with practical decision-making strategies. Writing reflectively, Elaine also provides heritage students and professionals with insights that will help move their careers and organizations into more equitable, yet successful, terrain. Centering the Museum will be an excellent companion volume to Civilizing the Museum and, as such, will be a useful support for emerging museum leaders. It will be especially interesting to academics and students engaged in the study of cultural administration, as well as museum and heritage practitioners working around the world.

Excerpt from Museum Stories for Children Pamphlets, Vol. 25: October-December, 1930 If you have ever tried to climb a Sand Dune or roll down one, you know what fun it is. The Sand Dunes nearest to Chicago are those at the head of Lake Michigan in Indiana. Perhaps you have been there, or if you are really fortunate your parents may have a cottage there where they take you to live in the summer. All along the south shore of the lake is the great fringe of Dunes - some of them just long ridges of sand, others conical, and some crescent-shaped. Whatever the form of the Dune it is certain to have a most interesting history. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
