Cassini's Compositae genera: A nomenclatural and taxonomic assessment

Work on the Global Compositae Checklist has highlighted uncertainties and errors in the nomenclatural parameters of many genera and subgenera described by Henri Cassini. Problems concern rank (subgenus vs. genus); type designation; correct place of valid publication; alternative names; and other miscellaneous issues. An annotated list with correct nomenclatural information for 391 generic names or designations is provided, including types (newly designated here for 17 names) and one new combination (Gyptis tanacetifolia). The current taxonomic disposition of Cassini's genera and the accepted names for the listed typonyms are consistently mentioned. The familiar names Felicia and Chrysopsis, already conserved, are threatened by unlisted earlier synonyms, and currently used Fulcaldea turns out to be illegitimate. Proposals to deal with these problems by conservation are being presented separatel

The artist speaks: the interview as documentation

Nearly every exhibition catalogue now contains an interview with, or related statement by, the artist. How and why did this become the norm? The increasing popularity of the artist's words is traced back in this article to its roots in Romanticism, the rise of the mass media and the cult of the avant-garde artist. The value and reliability of the transcribed and printed words is questioned and a bibliography of published interviews with artists follows

From anarchism to state funding : Louis Lumet and the cultural paradoxes of the third republic

In 1896 Louis Lumet despised the state and openly yearned for a red Messiah to sweep away bourgeois culture and politics. By 1904 he was in the receipt of state fundin g. This article unravels the paradox of his trajectory by f ocusing on the common interest that eventually united his i nterests with those of republican governments: the relation ship between art and the people. Drawing on hitherto unknow n writings by Lumet himself, as well as on little-used arch ives, the article explores Lumet’s anarchist persona and co nnections in fin-de-siècle Paris, charts his involvement in the Théâtre d’Art Social and the Théâtre Civique, and exam ines his role in the state-supported Art pour Tous. The fin al discussion reveals areas of conflict and convergence in the perception of the people as political actors by both an archists and the state, raising questions about the theory and practice of cultural democratization

Wicked, Hard and Supple: An Examination of Suzanne Valadon's Nude Drawings of Young Maurice

This article examines the nude drawings Suzanne Valadon made of her young son, Maurice Utrillo. These drawings, depicting Utrillo from late childhood until adolescence, began Valadon's interest in the male nude, which she carried into her later career. Though children appeared often in her work, the drawings of Utrillo are complicated by the relationship between the artist and subject.Publisher allows immediate open acces

Insurrectionary Heroines: The Possibilities and Limits of Women’s Radical Action During the French Revolution

The article titled, Insurrectionary Heroines: The Possibilities and Limits of Women’s Radical Action During the French Revolution, gathers research materials from multiple primary and secondary sources to generate an analysis of women’s participation in the French Revolution. The focus of this analysis draws on how these women confronted the Early Modern European female status quo through the use of radical action during the Revolution, which ultimately led to the creation of new possibilities for women\u27s participation in society and revealed the limitations of this new found participation. Radical action is defined by four major events in the article: the female March on Versailles in 1789, the manifestation of bread riots in 1795, the formation of the Society of Revolutionary Republican Women in 1793, and the writing of the Declaration of the Rights of Woman by Olympe de Gouges in 1791. By analyzing these four events, women\u27s involvement in the French Revolution becomes a large-scale and dynamic process that requires the reader to rethink how they originally viewed women during this time period and how they view the development of revolution. These women formulated massive populous bodies that confronted the French monarchy and asserted themselves as politically significant, rioted ferociously in the face of military oppression, formulated an extremely radical organization that called for the total engagement of women in politics and wrote a document that directly challenged the status quo of patriarchal society. While engaging is such behavior, these women also experienced certain limitations that affected the outcome of their radical actions such as, being dependent upon external factors to ensure political success. Ultimately, despite the raising of limitations, these women risked their lives in their radical efforts during the French Revolution, and in doing so raised new possibilities for women throughout history and new possibilities in revolution
