SUMMARY:Ellen Browning Scripps: New Money and American Philanthropy\, 1836-1932
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by The Book Club of California \nEllen Browning Scripps: New Money and American Philanthropy\, 1836-1932\n\nMonday\, June 10\, 2024\, 5-6:15 PM (Pacific)\nVirtual Presentation \n\n\n5:00 PM Pacific – Program \nMolly McClain tells the remarkable story of Ellen Browning Scripps (1836–1932)\, an American newspaperwoman\, feminist\, suffragist\, abolitionist\, and social reformer. She used her fortune to support women’s education\, the labor movement\, and public access to science\, the arts\, and education. \nBorn in London\, Scripps grew up in rural poverty on the Illinois prairie. She went from rags to riches\, living out that cherished American story in which people pull themselves up by their bootstraps with audacity\, hard work\, and luck. She and her brother\, E. W. Scripps\, built America’s largest chain of newspapers\, linking midwestern industrial cities with booming towns in the West. Less well known today than the papers started by Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst\, Scripps newspapers transformed their owners into millionaires almost overnight. \nBy the 1920s Scripps was worth an estimated $30 million\, most of which she gave away. She established the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla\, California\, and appeared on the cover of Time magazine after founding Scripps College in Claremont\, California. She also provided major financial support to organizations worldwide that promised to advance democratic principles and public education. \nIn Ellen Browning Scripps\, McClain brings to life an extraordinary woman who played a vital role in the history of women\, California\, and the American West. \nA virtual presentation by Molly McClain\, author and professor of History\, University of San Diego \n\nClick here to REGISTER for the Virtual Presentation on Zoom

SUMMARY:Goethe's Color Theory and Estienne's Centones: Handpress Era Zoom Group
DESCRIPTION:Sponsored by FABS \nJune 10\, 4:30pm Pacific/7:30pm Eastern: The Handpress Era group (“printed books and other printed works created before ca. 1800”). This month you’ll hear from both our co-hosts. To join the list contact info@fabsocieties.org. \n  \n\nDavid DiLaura: “Goethean vs Newtonian Color Theories: Communicating Perception using Hand Coloring.” Goethe’s 20-year argument with the Newtonian conception of color hinged not on physical abstractions\, but rather what we see. Central to both his works on color\, Goethe believed that the nature and origin of color was to be extracted from perceptions\, and color perception was communicated by hand-color figures in book plates and playing-card-like ephemera.\nJennifer Larson: “The Neglected Ancient Genre of the Cento and Henri Estienne’s 1578 edition.” Centones are “patchwork” poems composed of disparate lines from epic. In late antiquity\, Falconia Proba and Eudocia Augusta composed centones on biblical subjects using lines from Vergil and Homer respectively. I will discuss the Aldine and Stephanus editions of these poems and changing attitudes toward this curious genre in antiquity and the Renaissance.
