Abstract:
Illustration is folk art through which the illustrator conveys ideas and concepts to the audience. The artist's awareness of different illustration methods leads to better communication with the viewer. In this regard, the views of the audience, the publisher, and the author are influential on the illustrator's choices in the execution of the artwork [1]. Contemporary Iranian illustration arises from the experiences of Iranian illustrators of the past decades, influenced by European methods and combining it with indigenous, traditional, and ethnic characteristics. Despite all the efforts made in recent decades in this regard, preschool and primary children in Iran have received less attention from writers and illustrators than other age groups and have witnessed a lack of attention to picture books. However, the new artistic activities that have been done in this regard with the formation of councils, child support associations, and centers for the intellectual development of children and adolescents cannot be ignored [2].Attracting the audience and conveying the meanings of the text is one of the most important missions of illustrating the book. The artist's responsibility towards the audience, the publisher, the writer, and the type of his attitude shows the high risk of this field. The artist's awareness of the structures in this field leads to better artworks because from each of them, many solutions are obtained for a transcendent performance [1]. Therefore, there are two styles of illustrations as digital and traditional with their specific features. The principal results are the equal quality, importance, and valuation of both digital and traditional styles separately or as mixed styles. Expected contribution leads to researchers who are eager to continue this study in other age groups and aspects of illustration in order to achieve a progressive path through analyzing and searching visual and pictorial elements. This article intends to study the qualities of illustrations in both traditional and digital styles of picture books for preschool and primary children in Iran. Therefore, a number of picture books are selected to examine them through visual analysis.

Abstract:
This article offers an outline of a pragmatic sociology of the book. Whilst ubiquitous, books have received relatively little attention from sociologists. I propose to remedy this situation by drawing upon the ideas of GH Mead, namely his neo-Hegelian theory of the subject–object relationship. Mead’s chief insight is that objects such as books are first social and only then physical entities. They have agency not because of their thing-ness, so to speak, but because of their sociality. After reviewing the existing literature on the book, I discuss Mead’s most relevant contributions. In the proposal for a pragmatic sociology of the book that follows, I combine pragmatism’s focus upon the materiality of meaning-production with genealogy’s concern with power and violence. I conclude with an illustration of the approach: the simultaneous decanonization of Tocqueville’s Democracy in America among sociologists today and its canonization in political science.

Abstract:
Scriven Bolton (1883-1929) was an amateur astronomer from Leeds active in the first three decades of the twentieth century. He was also a skilled artist and commercial illustrator, specialising in astronomical subjects. He produced a substantial body of work which was reproduced in a wide range of publications, including newspapers, magazines and books published on both sides of the Atlantic. His work was intended to be scientifically accurate, and illustrates the consensus astronomical knowledge in the first decades of the twentieth century. No comprehensive list of his work was ever produced and he is now little remembered. This paper is a first report in an attempt to recover some his work and ultimately assess his contribution to early astronomical illustration.

Abstract:
The present article is concerned with Lithuanian picture books from the period 1900 to 1930. A new term paveikslėlių knyga to specify this children's book genre has been introduced, which was not in wide use in Lithuanian book research before. In the late 19th century, picture books became popular in many countries such as Germany, England, and France. However, in Lithuania, due to extraordinary circumstances—namely, all publications in the Lithuanian alphabet being banned by the czarist government of the Russian Empire—there were very few children's books in circulation, and the art of book illustration could hardly be developed. The first Lithuanian picture books were published in some series (retold fairy tales, adaptations of classical literature, and instructive or didactic publications) by J. Zavadzki's printing house in 1909-1911 in Vilnius. They were illustrated with color lithographs brought from Germany (some of them could be from Poland), and the authors of these illustrations were unknown. From the end of the 19th century, the spread of illustrations in cheap mass production German picture books is characteristic of other East European countries as well (for example, Latvia and Poland). One very simple picture book written and illustrated by Lithuanian authors—P. Mašiotas and P. Kalpokas—appeared in 1913 in Riga. New opportunities for publishing children's books emerged when the Independent Republic of Lithuania was established. At first, in the early twenties, Lithuanian picture books again repeated the German editions. While Lithuania's printing technology was poor, many editions were set up and published in Germany. In the twenties, the company Kultūra made a significant contribution to the development of Lithuanian artists' picture books. This company established contacts with corresponding publishing houses in Munich, Mainz, and Leipzig, and published picture books with German artists’ (W. Bush, E. Osswald) illustrations. The company Kultūra published the Lithuanian fairy tale Eglė, žalčių karalienė (Eglė, the Queen of Grass Snakes) (Šiauliai, 1924), illustrated by Lithuanian painter K. Simėnas and printed in Leipzig. This large-format picture book is the very first Lithuanian fairy tale edition with color illustrations. Some artists' picture books were published in Germany in 1923 by the short-lived publishing firm Mala. Poet K. Binkis assisted with the translation. Mažylis karaliukas (The Little Prince) (Kaunas, 1923) by F. Ostyn, illustrated by H. Pellar, is distinguished for its high quality of color printing and artistic value. A very popular book was the Lithuanian edition of Struwwelpeter (Vaikai vanagai. Linksmos pasakos ir paveikslėliai, 1928) by H. Hoffmann, also translated by K. Binkis. The A. Ptašekas bookshop in Kaunas published especially many picture books during the period between the two world wars, but most of them featured imported German illustrations. The domestically illustrated Lithuanian picture books were increasingly published only in the thirties. The analysis of Lithuanian picture books shows that their development was not isolated from the books of the same genre published in other countries (especially in Germany) but involved many possible contacts with foreign publishing houses that had greater experience. Thus, they were able to gain general peculiarities of the genre and find their own way.

Abstract:
AbstractThis article contributes to the debates on the role of anthropology in refugee law research by showing the added value of an interdisciplinary approach to the understanding of complex asylum claims related to cultural and religious beliefs that are unfamiliar to the Western perspective. Based on the analysis of asylum claims in UK courts involving witchcraftbased persecution in the country of origin—both applicants who feared becoming victims of witchcraft practices and those who could be accused of having engaged in witchcraft practices—I demonstrate how anthropology can provide the tools for bridging the gaps between the law in the books and its implementation in practice and solving issues that are beyond the scope of the law. In particular, anthropology can feed into a broader legal conceptualization that accounts for the realities of our diverse societies and helps explain how fear of persecution due to witchcraft can indeed be real and connected with serious human rights violations. Moreover, cultural expertise can assist in assessing asylum claims in their cultural, historical, and political contexts, affording the claimant a fairer and better adjudicated outcome. Nevertheless, the use of anthropology inevitably comes with some challenges related to the different fields’ epistemologies, languages, and styles, as well as a lack of appreciation for interdisciplinarity in some areas of academia.

As suggested by the title, the contributions reflected trends guiding the theoretical paradigm pre-eminently associated with MIT. After reading this collection, a colleague quipped that she wondered how well the view from Building 20 accorded with the broad research world beyond it. In this connection, the two books under review represent perspectives on language analysis which encourage one to pause and consider the present theoretical landscape in linguistics, and, less directly, the role of linguistics within modern cognitive science. Among their other merits, both books provide a rich and useful illustration of some of the perspectives on language analysis outside of Building 20. In doing so, they also help to define a more interesting research landscape than that usually characterized as an opposition between ‘formalists’ versus ‘cognitive/functionalists’.

Abstract:
Introduction: Although the hackneyed adage "one picture is worth a thousand words" defies proof and begs argument, the basic value of illustration in graphic communications is beyond dispute. Without attempting to put a relative value on illustration as compared with words, we can still be aware of the special effectiveness of images, in accomplishing communication goals. The roots of illustration go hack to prehistoric pictorial art of engraved or painted figures done on stone. The hand print can be interpreted as one of the first attempts at drawing. Prehistoric pictorial art depicted visually what could not be expressed by word or gestures some had religious significance, some the presence of myth, others plainly diadactic, showing daily life, social communication, the magic of the hunt, death, birth, group life and sexual symbolism. Little is known of the vast lapse of time between prehistoric art and the imagery that man devised in the service of developing civilisations at the dawn of history. With steadily increasing demands upon his skills, the artisan's mastery of the tools and materials progressed, so that by the beginning of recorded time he was in possession of the potential elements for printmaking. Yet the importance of communication, as we know it today, only developed centuries later with the motivating force of religion. The print could tell its story to those who could not read or write but could quickly grasp the meaning of a picture.

Abstract:
Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2006.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Collage, as a verbal and visual medium, epitomises the heterogeneity, indeterminacy and fragmentation of the postmodern moment. In this thesis I argue that visual collage - in the context of book illustration - presents an ideal form with which to illustrate the state of contemporary (postmodern) narrative. Postmodernism, as a term or concept, evades any form of absolute or definitive account. Hence, in my discussion of the postmodern condition I move towards an understanding of this complex theoretical and cultural phenomenon. Postmodern cultural artifacts reflect the state of a modernised, Western-orientated, globalised consciousness, which resists arborescent structures in past and contemporary texts. In both postmodern narratives and in literary fictional narratives the condition of artifice is amplified. Thus, this thesis explores various characteristics evident in postmodern fiction in order to understand and demonstrate the changes manifest in contemporary narratives in general. Many of the stylistic and figurative devices employed in the postmodern novel foreground the excessive appropriation and self-reflexive textualism of contemporary texts - these literary devices often reflect particular collage-like tendencies or characteristics. Contemporary literary theory, in addition, provides many useful terms and concepts with which to describe visual texts and, for the purposes of this discussion, narrative illustration. This thesis is centred primarily on an analysis of the practical component completed as part of the Master of Arts degree in Fine Arts. The discussion of the practical work is embedded in the wider fields of book art - particularly the postmodern artist's book (livre detourne) - and in contentious debates around the role of visual narrative illustration. In both the thesis and the illustrated book objects, I challenge the secondary and supplementary position traditionally held by illustration in the context of the book. I argue for a form of visual narrative that is not required to function as a mere translation of the primary verbal text. Instead - working within the context of the artist's book and through the utilisation of collage as a visual (and verbal) medium - I demonstrate that illustration may complement, supplement or subvert the written text. Furthermore, I show that illustration may assume the role of the primary text in the context of the codex. Finally, this study creates a space for a creative and participatory reader who, through the intertextual processes made evident in the book objects, becomes an active 'reader-writer' of the visual and verbal narratives under discussion.<br>AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Collage, as beide 'n verbale en visuele medium, verpersoonlik die onbesliste, gefragmenteerde, heterogene moment van postmodemisme. In hierdie tesis voer ek aan dat visuele collage, binne die konteks van boekillustrasie, 'n ideale vorm van uitbeelding hied om die toestand van kontemporere (postmodeme) narratief te illustreer. Postmodemisme, as 'n term of konsep, ontwyk enige volslae of beslissende betekenis. Gevolglik poog ek in my bespreking van die postmodeme toestand om nader aan 'n begrip van hierdie komplekse teoretiese en kulturele , fenoneem te beweeg. Postmodeme kulturele artefakte reflekteer die toestand van 'n gemodemiseerde, Westers-georienteerde, geglobaliseerde bewustheid wat liniere strukture in tekste uit die verlede en die hede weerstaan. In beide postmodeme narratiewe en fiktiewe literere narratiewe word die gesteldheid van kunsskepping toegelig. Dus ondersoek hierdie tesis verskeie opvallende eienskappe van postmodeme fiksie ten einde die veranderinge wat in die algemeen in kontemporere narratiewe manifesteer te verstaan en te demonstreer. Vele van die stilistiese en figuratiewe tegnieke van die postmodemistiese roman plaas die oormatige toe-eining en selfrefleksiewe tekstualisme van konteporere tekste op die voorgrond; die literere gebruikswyses reflekteer dikwels bepaalde collage-agtige tendense of eienskappe. Hierbenewens, bied kontemporere literereteorie vele nuttige terme en konsepte waarmee visuele tekste sowel as, vir die doe] van hierdie ondersoek, visuele narratiewe, beskryf kan word. Hierdie tesis is hoofsaaklik gevestig op 'n analise van die praktiese werk wat dee) van die Magister Artuim-graad in Beeldende Kunste uitmaak. Die bespreking van die praktiese werk is veranker in die wyer terreine van boekkuns - spesifiek die postmodeme kunstenaarsboek (livre detourne) - en in kontensieuse debatte oor die rol van visuelenarratief-illustrasie. In beide die tesis en die gelllustreerde boekobjekte bevraagteken ek die tradisionele siening dat illustrasie binne boekkontekse 'n sekondere of aanvullende posisie inneem. Ek argumenteer ten gunste van 'n vorm van visuele narratief waarvan daar nie bloot verwagword om as 'n beskrywing van die primere verbale teks te funksioneer nie. In plaas daarvan, deur binne die konteks van die kunstenaarsboek te werk en deur collage as 'n visuele (en verbale) medium te benut, demonstreer ek dat illustrasie die geskrewe teks kan aanvul, daartoe kan toevoeg of dit kan ondergrawe. Verder toon ek dat illustrasie die rol van die primere teks in die konteks van die kodeks kan inneem. Laastens skep hierdie studie die geleentheid vir 'n kreatiewe en bydraende leser - vanwee 'n intertekstuele proses wat in die boekobjekte aan die Jig kom - om as 'n aktiewe 'leser-skrywer' van die visuele en verbale tekste onder bespreking op te tree.

Abstract:
Thesis (Mphil (Visual Arts. Illustration))--University of Stellenbosch, 2007.<br>This thesis is a visual, sociolinguistic and cultural inquiry into the role of isiXhosa picture books in contemporary South Africa. From the standpoint of an illustrator, I examine several of these works arising out of a history that alienated many isiXhosa readers and writers from their language. I examine factors that influence the design, content and very notions of reading itself through the multiple languages offered by the picture book format. I argue that these books occupy a problematic space where production and consumption are affixed to paradigms of economics, language and literacy incongruent with the lives of many isiXhosa-speaking readers. My overall conclusion is that literacy and visual literacy are essential to developing an authentic 'reading culture'. Fostering a meaningful relationship with printed words and images is critical to both the emerging reader and the emerging illustrator. In producing illustrations for an isiXhosa narrative, I consider the shape of my own visual literacy through mediations with drawing and writing, relating my activities to those of a child learning to distinguish between pictures and words. The cross-over space where image/text distinctions blur potentially invites new narrative expressions. The picture book is a suitable format for expanding notions of vision and literacy, 'subverting' paradigms and revealing the richness of contemporary African tales. I rest my fundamental premise on an insistence for an increase of accessible, quality picture books in African languages that stimulate the artistic and intellectual development of all readers.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Introduction to the book “50 Years World Heritage Convention: Shared Responsibility – Conflict &amp; Reconciliation” sets the stage by presenting the key message, background and content of the book. The identity-building function of heritage and its sustainable protection assume a central role. Accordingly, the chapter provides an overview of policy tools and academic debates engaging with this matter, while emphasizing the critical issues undertaken with the volume at hand. These are to reflect on whether the goals and content of the World Heritage Convention have been implemented accordingly; on the conflicts that have been affecting it over time and the need for sustainable strategies; and on perspectives for the future. This chapter further emphasises the requirements for diversity, arising from the World Heritage Convention and the variety of heritage properties, and it is reflected in the thematic, geographic and disciplinary diversity of the contributions in this book. For illustration, the chapter provides brief descriptions of conflicts affecting heritage, categorized into six areas, as well as summaries of the chapters which address them.

Full text
Abstract:
Chapter 1, Grotesque Vignettes and the Book “All Margin,” showcases the vignettes decking three tiny volumes of witticisms known as Bon-Mots, which Beardsley illustrated in 1893–94 on the side of his major commission for Le Morte Darthur. The chapter argues that the foundational spirit of such an early grotesque nucleus in the artist’s work has been unduly neglected and discusses its meaning, uses and origins. It flags up the grotesque vignettes, set in a variety of paradoxes and plays on words, as a crucible of themes and graphic styles. They free Beardsley from influences, supply him with flexible penmanship, and stimulate new relations of art with language. The chapter shows how Beardsley treats closely contemporaneous artworks (Pre-Raphaelites, Whistler, Redon) with subversive brio; how he remodels the earlier grotesque tradition beyond recognition; how he relates calligraphic grotesques to adjacent quips and stresses the relation between grotesque vignettes and bodies. Marginal creation becomes central in fin-de-siècle print culture with Beardsley contributing to wry illustration and down-to-earth use of language. The paradigm spreads to the illustrated press. It bridges print categories, bringing bibelot refined booklets alongside periodicals, and inventively illustrates the witty idea of a book “all margin.”

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter focuses on illustrating the steps of Legal Design (LD) and Visual Law (VL). Before delving into the process of comic book co-creation, the chapter provides an overview of LD and VL, emphasizing their relative unfamiliarity, even among legal scholars. LD, originating from an initiative at Stanford Law School, aims to simplify legal language by evaluating and designing legal business in a simple, functional, attractive, and usable way. It centers on people’s needs, shifting focus from professionals to recipients, such as citizens, organizations, and communities. LD emphasizes ongoing interactions and feedback from recipients throughout the project, fostering empathy and active listening. While LD focuses on effective communication for the benefit of legal beneficiaries, VL serves as its visual manifestation. VL utilizes various visual elements, such as images, illustrations, videos, infographics, comics, and more, making legal documents more explanatory. LD and VL, initially tools for law firms to aid law firm clients understanding, have evolved for broader applications in legal education, research dissemination, empowering society to advocate for their rights, and supporting the decolonization of legal mindsets. The chapter discusses the interchangeable use of LD and VL in legal research, legal education, and as strategic tools for societal empowerment. Importantly, it highlights their potential role in decolonizing legal mindsets by involving participants outside the dominant Western legal doctrine and supporting knowledge co-creation. The chapter underscores the importance of LD and VL in contributing to the re-emergence of Indigenous perspectives and cosmovisions, ultimately facilitating effective participation in environmental matters.

Abstract:
Visual culture is an integral part of modern life. Books with the engaging visual design still attract children’s attention and are at the center of examples of their experiences and interactions. In children’s books, the image is the central part of perception and the accompanying text plays a secondary role. Visual perception influences and shapes children’s views about what the world around them is like. The book’s illustrations are often the primary criteria when choosing a book for a child, which also creates interest in the written content. By analyzing different illustrations, it is possible to distinguish several main features that are characteristic of depicting a certain emotion and how the characters feel. When looking at any illustration, the character’s facial expression is one of the primary objects looked at to determine how the character is feeling. Appropriate body posture creates the effect of movement alone or helps create the mood of an illustration by complementing the emotional background provided by facial expressions. A true representation of emotions in an illustration not only creates an enjoyable overall image but also clearly shows children how each emotion manifests itself and helps them understand themselves and in the people around them. The aim of the research is to investigate the role of children’s books in their psycho-emotional development and the techniques of depicting emotions in book illustrations. Research methods: theorethical – research of literature and Internet resources; case study. Research results – the importance of children’s book illustrations in children’s psycho-emotional development is substantiated, and the types of representation of various emotional expressions are determined. The case study confirms that not in all cases artists have paid attention to facial mimicry, which is the most active part of a person for the expression of emotions.

Abstract:
Падение рынка книжной продукции заставило издателей искать новые способы привлечения потребителя. Потому не удивительно, что такой выразительный жанр, как анимация, стал важным маркетинговым ходом для продвижения издательской продукции и дополнением к классической иллюстрации. Тесно связанные с анимацией комиксы и книги с дополненной реальностью демонстрируют уверенный рост продаж. Таким образом, синтез книги и анимации несомненно имеет хорошие перспективы для развития в будущем. The decline in the book market has forced publishers to look for new approaches to attracting consumers to their products. Therefore, it is not surprising that such an expressive genre as animation has become an important marketing ploy for the promotion of publishing products and a complement to classical illustration. Closely related to animation, comics and augmented reality books are showing strong sales growth amid a decline in the overall publishing market. Thus, the synthesis of books and animation undoubtedly has good prospects for development in the future.

Abstract:
The article is focused on the creation of three plastic artists from the Republic of Moldova, who would have celebrated their centenary this year - Igor Vieru (1923-1988), Ilia Bogdesco (1923 2010), Mihail Petric (1923-2005). Their contribution is a significant one for national art, each one leaving a considerable mark in the field and genre they work in – graphics, thematic painting, landscape, etc. Several aspects and factors of the creative process of each individual artist are mentioned in the article. The thematic topics addressed are described, the components of the plastic language used in the process of creating a work of art, and the types of plastic and technical realization of the works are revealed. Depending on the historical period, the illustrative-realistic vision in painting (Igor Vieru, Mihail Petric) is replaced by a decorative one, inspired by Romanian plastic folklore and the aesthetic concepts of modern European art (post-impressionism, Fauvism, etc.). In the creation of the graphic artist Ilie Bogdesco, who prefers a „classic” work technique (engraving on copper plate, etc.), technical procedures and stylistic features not specific to contemporary national graphics are encountered. He practices calligraphy in book illustration and develops a new author's technique, based on the text from the national medieval miniatures. Poets in soul and philosophers in thought, the celebrated artists remain trailblazers for the plastic arts in the Republic of Moldova, who have left a unique spiritual trail in their track record.

Klammler, Harald. Introduction to the Mechanics of Flow and Transport for Groundwater Scientists. The Groundwater Project, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.21083/gxat7083.

Full text
Abstract:
Starting from Newton’s laws of motion and viscosity, this book is an introduction to fundamental aspects of fluid dynamics that are most relevant to groundwater scientists. Based on a perspective of driving versus resisting forces that govern the motion of a fluid, the author derives Darcy’s law for flow through porous media by drawing an analogy to Bernoulli’s law for fluid with negligible viscosity. By combining the effects of gravity and pressure, the author identifies hydraulic head as a convenient numerical quantity to represent the force driving groundwater flow. In contrast to the physical derivation of hydraulic head, hydraulic conductivity emerges as a parameter related to the resisting frictional forces between the mobile fluid and the stationary porous medium. These frictional seepage forces also affect the effective stress state of the porous medium, thus establishing a link to soil stability and quicksand formation. Combining Darcy’s law with the law of mass conservation leads the reader to the fundamental equations of saturated groundwater flow. Finally, the effects of capillary forces are included to establish the governing equations for unsaturated and multi-phase flow. Throughout the book, the author focuses on thoroughly illustrating and deriving the equations while applying order of magnitude analyses. This approach makes it possible to extract the most information, for example in terms of the scale of response time, without requiring explicit solutions. A number of boxes and solved exercises contain further details and links to practical applications such as the water table ratio that reflects ‘fullness’ of an aquifer and the performance of slug tests for in situ measurement of hydraulic conductivity. This book makes an important contribution to groundwater science by providing a progressive introductory explanation of the physical mechanics of groundwater flow and the accompanying socioeconomic and ecological problems that may arise.

Full text
Abstract:
The Mahabub Hossain Panel Data (MHPD) was initiated in 1988 and maintained by and named after the late Mahabub Hossain, a well-known agricultural and development economist who led a number of reputed organizations in Bangladesh (Bangladesh Institute of Development Studies and BRAC) and in the region (International Rice Research Institute). We portray the historical context, sampling evolution, survey structure and methodology, and academic and policy contributions of the MHPD with some lessons learned for the next step forward. The MHPD has tracked rural households for a period of over 3 decades (1988–2014) with five waves of household surveys covering over 2,800 households and has collected a wide range of information on household composition, schooling of household members, assets, cropping intensity and patterns including cost and return, employment and income, consumption, participation in different government and nongovernment programs. We reviewed several books and journal articles authored by Mahabub Hossain and related academic papers and documents and collated information on MHPD, including (i) mapping out information on past and ongoing panel or cross-sectional household survey data series in Bangladesh; (ii) undertaking the review of all past rounds of MHPD survey documents, such as survey implementation plans, questionnaires, codebooks, databases, and processed data; (iii) consulting relevant stakeholders, including the past implementers of the surveys and the users of the data as needed to validate documented information; (iv) taking stock of the contribution of MHPD to academic literature and policy development; and (v) drawing a number of lessons learned for future data collection and policy making. The report aims to (i) serve as a comprehensive reference document for scholars and policy makers who wish to understand MHPD for possible use in their research; and (ii) provide a comprehensive baseline from which we can consider ways to enhance MHPD further to continue contributing to understanding the economic and social issues of today and near future. By compiling all associated research work based on MHPD, we offer a historical landscape of Bangladesh’s social and economic development and a credible explanation for the Bangladesh development model for global comparison.
