Abstract

In 1591, Giovanni Paolo Gallucci published his Della simmetria dei corpi humani, an Italian translation of Albrecht Dürer’s Four Books on Human Proporti on. While Dürer’s treatise had been translated earlier in the sixteenth-century into French and Latin, it was Gallucci’s Italian translation that endured in popularity as the most cited version of the text in later Baroque treatises, covering topics that were seen as central to arts education, connoisseurship, patronage, and the wider appreciation of the studia humanitati s in general. The text centres on the relationships between beauty and proportion, macrocosm and microcosm: relationships that were not only essential to the visual arts in the early modern era, but that cut across a range of disciplines – music, physiognomics and humoral readings, astronomy, astrology and cosmology, theology and philosophy, even mnemonics and poetry. In his version of the text, Gallucci expanded the educational potential of the treatise by adding a Preface, a Life of Dürer, and a Fifth Book providing a philosophical framework within which to interpret Dürer’s previous sections. This translation is the first to make these original contributions by Gallucci accessible to an English-speaking audience. Gallucci’s contributions illuminate the significance of symmetry and proportion in the contemporary education of the early modern era, informing our understanding of the intellectual history of this period, and the development of art theory and criticism. This is a valuable resource to early modern scholars and students alike, especially those specialising in history of art, philosophy, history of science, and poetry. As with all Open Book publications, this entire book is available to read for free on the publisher’s website.

Abstract

This book considers the generative tension between the materiality and virtuality of walking methodologies in a/r/tography and arts-based educational research. It explores the materiality of practice—manifestations, manipulations, residues, and traces of both real and imagined experiences and events. Authors present artistic representations, renderings, artifacts, and documentations that allow for various forms of return and re-visitation of places/spaces and temporal moments. The book also investigates the digital and virtual, including video, images, media work, and emergent technologies that allow one to literally, metaphorically, affectively, and conceptually go somewhere that might be previously impossible to reach. Authors consider curricular and pedagogical implications of digital/virtual walking in relation to desire, agency, autonomy, freedom, and other issues around ethics. The book brings together entanglements of the corporeal and incorporeal, addressing the questions: How does the (im)materiality of bodies/characters-in-motion in a/r/tographic practices shape understandings of place, space, and the self-in-relation? How do issues and particularities come to matter through one’s entanglements with(in) the (in)corporeal? “The editors of Material and Digital A/r/tographic Explorations have carefully curated a collection that engages readers in the world of a/r/tography and walking, which provoke, challenge, and respond to each other. This collection fosters engagement and understanding for graduate researchers, professors, artists, and those new to a/r/tography and walking as a methodology. This book challenges us to embrace new ways of exploring and engaging with the material and digital in art education, making it a transformative and ethically-driven addition to the a/r/tographic corpus.” — Kathryn Coleman, Associate Professor, Art Education, The University of Melbourne “The editors of this thought-provoking and arresting collection have assembled a textured and authentically international suite of art educators as authors that explore a/r/tographic walking in relation. The book engages textual and digital materialities such as GPS collage, digital imagery, AI, and other virtual platforms together with conventional approaches of deeply affective and photographic recordings and documented forms, as mappings, trails, and schemas. Visually rich, this book explores the materiality of practice, of turning and returning, visiting and revisiting, mapping and moving—drawing the reader affectively and effectively to consider a/r/tography and walking as ways to open each other’s potentialities.” — Alexandra Lasczik, Professor of Arts & Education, Southern Cross University.

Abstract

Originally published in 1973. Toward Freedom and Dignity is a humanist's view of the humanities in an age of burgeoning technology. O. B. Hardison Jr. deals with the status of the humanities and their future—how they are regarded and how they may come to contribute to a genuinely humane society. He argues that humanistic studies are not a luxury in either education or society. They are central to the preparation of human beings for the kind of society that is possible if we manage to avoid an Orwellian technocracy. Social goals and priorities must be set in terms of the ideal of a culture truly adjusted to human needs and human limitations. In framing his argument, Hardison draws on ideas of the humanities since the Renaissance, especially on the philosophical humanities that emerged in Europe in the works of authors like Kant, Schiller, and Coleridge. He is untroubled by anti-humanistic trends in college curricula and the surrounding culture, and he contends that we have only one practical option: to ensure that culture evolves toward a more humane society, toward freedom and dignity.

Abstract

"This co-authored collection offers valuable insights about the impact of leading off-campus study on faculty leaders' teaching, research, service, and overall well-being. Recognizing that faculty leaders are themselves global learners, the book addresses ways that liberal arts colleges can more effectively achieve their strategic goals for students' global learning by intentionally anticipating and supporting the needs of faculty leaders, as they grow and change. This volume offers key findings and recommendations to stimulate conversations among administrators, faculty, and staff about concrete actions they can explore and steps they can take on their campuses to both support faculty leaders of off-campus programs and advance strategic institutional goals for global learning. This collection includes transferrable pedagogical insights and the perspectives of faculty members who have led off-campus study programs in a variety of disciplines and geographic regions"--

Abstract

This book addresses notions of critique in Design and Technology Education, facilitating a conceptual and practical understanding of critique, and enabling both a personal and pedagogical application to practice. Critique can be a frame of mind, and may be related to a technology, product, process or material. In a holistic sense, critique is an element of a person’s technological literacy, a fundamentally critical disposition brought to bear on all things technological. This book provides a reasoned conceptual framework within which to develop critique, and examples of applying the framework to Design and Technology Education. The book builds on The Future of Technology Education published by Springer as the first in the series Contemporary Issues in Technology Education. In the 21st century, an ‘age of knowledge’, students are called upon to access, analyse and evaluate constantly changing information to support personal and workplace decision making and on-going innovation. A critical Design and Technology Education has an important role to play, providing students with opportunities to integrate economic, environmental, social and technological worlds as they develop and refine their technological literacy. Through the design and development of technology, they collaborate, evaluate and critically apply information, developing cognitive and manipulative skills appropriate to the 21st century. Critique goes beyond review or analysis, addressing positive and negative technological development. This book discusses and applies this deeper perspective, identifying a clear role for critique in the context of Design and Technology Education.

Abstract

This book examines a creative approach to exploring choreographic practice artistically, theoretically, and pedagogically. It explores the interweaving of dance, dance teaching, dance onto-epistemologies, and choreography with a particular focus on creating dance with digital technologies. The idea of centring choreography in dance education fundamentally challenges typical conceptions of best practice in the preparation and delivery, appropriateness, and effectiveness of dance performance, teaching and learning experiences. It purposefully privileges creativity as a critical learning paradigm, extending the ways in which creativity studies are enriching performance scholarship as well as performance teaching. The book acknowledges the importance of the artist teacher nexus and presents choreographic practice as the centre of learning in dance, with a focus on digital platforms. Peter J. Cook is Head of School and Dean, Education, at the University of Southern Queensland, Australia. His research is primarily centred on understanding learning through, dance, education and creativity and their associated practices. Additionally, Peter’s work is informed by his vast experience in initial teacher education and extending into creativity in leadership.
