Stylistic Village Vignettes is the second book in the Village Vignettes Series, following Realistic Village Vignettes. This book takes a different path to displaying miniature porcelain and ceramic village pieces. Instead of creating a logical village scene found in the Realistic Village Vignettes book, Stylistic Village Vignettes combines elements such as other collectibles, containers, objects d'art, and more into fabulous vignettes conserving both space and time. Besides the traditional containers such as baskets, unique trays and elegant serving pieces found at fine home decor centers, family heirlooms, thrift store caste offs and garage sale finds can also enhance the proper village piece or pieces. Even if a lack of space or time prevents creating an extensive village setting, a village focused collage can still showcase your favorite village pieces. Christmas was the impetus for most village collections. There are numerous Christmas related suggestions, but there are also ideas for the smaller holidays such as Valentine's Day and Easter. Spring and Autumn are not forgotten, and of course, Halloween has its own chapter. A special chapter has also been included by Sue Chretien, a master at developing stylistic displays. She is constantly on the hunt for dramatic ways to enhance her vignettes - many of them featuring food related pieces finding their way into the kitchen and dining areas. In addition to Sue, over forty other village collectors have contributed to this excellent display resource, sharing their ideas; and providing creative inspirations as starting points for other collectors to appreciate their village pieces in a different way. They say a picture is worth 10,000 words. This book - as well as Realist Village Vignettes - are filled with excellent photographs depicting hundreds of ideas to implement. And even if a collector doesn't have the exact same pieces, many of these ideas can be tweaked using your favorite pieces. If space or time are limited, just about everybody has some flat space somewhere to showcase at least a couple of pieces, alone or in conjunction with a prized "something" passed down through the generations. In combination, they are worth much more than the sum of their parts. Therefore, if you find you no longer have the space, or the time, or the energy to plan and create an awesome village display scene, try developing a dynamic smaller Stylistic Village Vignettes.

These books, as well as five Village Scaping DVDs, provide creative ideas and techniques to develop and enhance any village display. Whether creating an individual vignette or a mega display, there are hundreds of ideas included to improve any miniature village setting. For many collectors, lack of time and space has become a major challenge. Thus, a different solution to displaying favorite village pieces in small places has been sought. "Realistic Village Vignettes" - Book 1 of the Village Vignette Book Series - is a compilation of numerous village collectors from around the United States and Europe. The second book in the series is entitled "Stylistic Village Vignettes". They both concentrate on placing a single building or a series of related pieces into realistic or stylistic settings. Realistic Village Vignettes is based on natural settings. It offers several easy to create landscaping techniques to form actual scenes surrounding a prized village piece or pieces. There are also numerous water development treatments such as the creation of an icy stream, a rocky coast, or a sandy beach surrounded by rocky cliffs; plus numerous others ways to form a water scene. Backgrounds are a pleasing addition to a realistic vignette. They can substantially enhance a setting, whether the builder has an artistic talent or not. Realistic Village Vignettes provides insight into adding backgrounds to a vignette. There are numerous ideas to effectively condense a realistic display into a small footprint. Or, several individual vignettes can be coordinated and unified into a single display. Scatter several small vignettes throughout the house as a replacement for a large village layout. Ideas presented can also be merged into focal points within a mega display. The Christmas Holidays are not the only time that village settings can be appreciated. Ideas to showcase your favorites throughout the year are also provided. Since these vignettes don't take up much space, many can be left up longer, stored easily, revamped, or replaced by a spring, summer or fall display. Halloween has become extremely popular. Be prepared for those "Trick or Treaters". Realistic Village Displays also includes several ideas to showcase those intriguing pieces. And, there are ways to make a spooky display even if you do not collect a Halloween inspired village. Build a vignette around a special piece or select a theme and find a piece to illustrate it.

"To read the book is to appreciate the highly contingent, provisional, oblique, open-ended way in which people try to make "sense" of another culture."—Resil B. Mojares, Philippine Graphic "This book is an interestingly complex ethnography that approaches the self-critical dialectical ethnography called for two decades ago....It is a welcome contribution to postmodernist theory and to the ethnography of the Visayas."—Ronald Provencher, Journal of Asian Studies

Villages of Britain is the history of the countryside, told through five hundred of its most noteworthy settlements. Many of Britain's villages are known for their loveliness, of course, but their role in shaping the nation over the centuries is relatively untold, drowned out by the metropolitan bias of history. A consummate storyteller, Clive Aslet deftly weaves the worlds of agriculture, politics, the arts, industry, folklore, science, ecology, fashion and religion into one irresistible volume. The Bedfordshire works that a century ago manufactured half a billion bricks a year; the Cheshire municipality striving to become the country's first carbon-neutral community; the Derbyshire estate where the cottages represent the gamut of European architecture; the Gloucestershire community founded by Tolstoyans, who still live by anarchic principles; the Leicestershire town where pub walls are embedded with Jurassic-era fossils; the Morayshire settlement where Hogmanay is celebrated eleven days late; the Pembrokeshire fishing hamlet that inspired Dylan Thomas; the Somerset village that was built on the back of the trade in Peruvian bird droppings; the Suffolk village that is rejecting modernity by reconstructing a windmill for grinding flour; the Surrey woodland that fosters Europe's most ancient trees - all these are places that have made a unique contribution to the narrative of this country. Follow Clive Aslet in visiting all five hundred villages, and you will have experienced the history of these islands from a uniquely rural perspective.

Style and the Future of CompositionStudies explores style’s potential for informing how students are taught to write well and its power as a tool for analyzing the language and discourse practices of writers and speakers in a range of contexts. Many college writing teachers operate under the belief that style still refers primarily to the kinds of issues discussed in Strunk and White’s popular but outdated book The Elements of Style. This work not only challenges this view but also offers theories and pedagogies from diverse perspectives that help teachers and students develop strategic habits and mindsets to negotiate languages, genres, and discourse conventions. The chapters explore the ways in which style directly affects—and is affected by—multiple sources of shifting disciplinary inquiry, contributing new insights by drawing on research in cultural studies, sociolinguistics, discourse studies, translingualism, and writing across the curriculum, as well as new approaches to classical rhetorical theory. The reemergence of stylistic inquiry can be used dynamically to produce new insights not only about emerging disciplinary interests but also about the study of style as a kind of language in and of itself. Style and the Future of Composition Studies demonstrates that style deserves to be a central focus of writing teaching. More than just the next style collection, the book advocates for style’s larger prominence in composition discussions generally. It will be of interest to a broad range of students and scholars of writing studies, as well as a wider set of readers in academe.
