Description: Condition Continued: There are a large number of photographs along with several drawings. Actually I can be more specific: there are 38 illustrations. All are in excellent condition. (Humorously, the List of Illustrations identifies 38, but the verbiage on the front flap of the dust jacket references 39. Whatever the true number, all are present).You can see the dust jacket in the first few photos. It's in very nice shape, very clean. The only wear I see is quite minor, a little crinkling at the spine ends. The flaps are in excellent shape, very clean, no tears, no wear to speak of. The jacket is not priced or clipped. It will be fitted with a protective cover after the photos are scanned. Cornell University Press, Ithaca and London, 1995. Hardcover in Dust Jacket. Written by Aby M. Warburg. Translated with an interpretive essay by Michael P. Steinberg. First American Edition ( 'First published 1995 by Cornell University Press' ). ISBN No. 0801429730From the jacket: 'Aby M. Warburg (1866-1929) is recognized not only as one of the century's preeminent art and Renaissance historians but also as a founder of twentieth-century methods in iconology and cultural studies in general. Warburg's 1923 lecture, first published in German in 1988 and now available in the first complete English translation, offers at once a window on his career, a formative statement of his cultural history of modernity, and a document in the ethnography of the American Southwest. This edition includes thirty-nine photographs many of them originally presented as slides with the speech, and a rich interpretive essay by the translator. The presentation grow out of Warburg's 1985 encounter with Hopi Indians, an experience he claimed generated his theory of the Renaissance. In this powerfully written piece, Warburg investigates the relationships among ethnography, iconography, and cultural studies to develop a multicultural history of modernity.'
