The Centennial decade was an era of ambivalence, the United States still unresolved about the incomprehensible damage it had wrought over four years of Civil War, and why. Philadelphia’s 1876 Centennial Exhibition -- a spectacular international event celebrating one hundred years of American strength, unity, and freedom -- took place in the immediate wake of this trauma of war and the failures of Reconstruction as a means to restore power and patriotism in the nation’s struggle to rebuild itself. The Unfinished Exhibition, the first comprehensive examination of American art at the Centennial, explains the critical role of visual culture in negotiating memories of the nation’s past that conflicted with the optimism that Exhibition officials promoted. Supporting novel iconographical interpretations with myriad primary source material, author Susanna W. Gold demonstrates how the art galleries and the audiences who visited them addressed the lingering traumas of battle, the uneasy re-unification of North and South, and the persisting racial tensions in the post-Emancipation era. This careful consideration of the visual record exposes the complexities of the war’s impact on Americans and clarifies how the Centennial art exhibition affected a nation still finding its direction at a critical moment in its history.

Asteria Verano is a fresh graduate of fine arts. Frustrated at work with all the loads as a freelancer, she decided to accept the invitation of her friend to the exhibit in their estate, not to mention her friend was so persistent for her to come. The trip would have been great since she admired the famous painter, however, acquiring flu on her travel made her head spin throughout the tour, it got worse when the same night, her friends played a lame prank on her that made her paint an unfinished portrait, that is rumored to be cursed aside from it’s disrespectful, it transported her to another period and place. Suddenly, she was on a plaza in broad daylight, unfamiliar faces eyeing her like she’s doing something wrong, people calling her a different name, a man claiming her his fiancé, and meeting the painter who did not finish the painting, however, he told her he never lifts a brush, as a matter of fact, he’s a doctor, nothing more, nothing less. Asteria was not only stuck in the past but she was also bound in an identity that has a bad reputation, a wedding to be prepared, another stranger appeared inside her bedroom calling her “Mi Alma” and questions she had a hard time seeking to find the answers to, starting with three: why is she here? How will she return? and Why is the unfinished portrait cursed?

Albania is not well known by outsiders; it was deliberately closed to the outside world during the communist era. Now it has thankfully become free again, its borders are open and it can be visited, and it is increasingly integrating with the rest of Europe and beyond. Unfortunately, Albania has had its share of problems in the post-communist era; it's a land of destitution and despair, thanks in part to the Albanian mafia, which has turned the country into one of blood-feuds, kalashnikovs, and eternal crises. Yet, Albania is, in essence, a European nation like any other and will soon, it is to be hoped, advance and take its proper place in Europe and the world. The second edition of the Historical Dictionary of Albania relates the history of this little-known country through a detailed chronology, an introduction, a bibliography, appendixes, and over 700 cross-referenced dictionary entries on significant persons, places, and events; institutions and organizations; and political, economic, social, cultural, and religious facets.
