Moving from art and thought in antiquity to the Italian Renaissance, she examines the understandings of ornament arising from the Platonic, Aristotelian and Sophistic traditions, and the tensions which emerged from these varied meanings. The book views the Renaissance as a decisive point in the story of ornament, when its subsequent identification with style and historicism are established. It asserts ornament as a fundamental, not an accessory element in art and presents its restoration to theoretical dignity as essential to historical scholarship and aesthetic reflection.Brill's studies in intellectual history ;v. 245.Brill's studies in intellectual history.Brill's studies on art, art history, and intellectual history ;v. 10.Decoration and ornamentPhilosophyDecoration and ornament, RenaissanceItalyDecoration and ornamentPhilosophy.Decoration and ornament, Renaissance747.094509024Guest Clare Lapraik1675677MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910829145803321The understanding of ornament in the Italian Renaissance4041359UNINA04339nam 2200745Ia 450 991096702090332120200520144314.09786610507788978128050778612805077809781853598999185359899210.21832/9781853598999(CKB)1000000000337017(EBL)265915(OCoLC)475990377(SSID)ssj0000137779(PQKBManifestationID)11129818(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000137779(PQKBWorkID)10097069(PQKB)10139113(MiAaPQ)EBC265915(DE-B1597)514063(OCoLC)614467706(DE-B1597)9781853598999(Au-PeEL)EBL265915(CaPaEBR)ebr10132111(CaONFJC)MIL50778(Perlego)969956(EXLCZ)99100000000033701720060315d2006 uy 0engurnn#---|u||utxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierDeveloping minority language resources the case of Spanish in California /Guadalupe Valde s ...

Imagining Linguistic Pluralism in the United States --Methodological AppendixThis book documents ongoing language shift to English among Latino professionals in California 67% of which studied Spanish formally in high school and 54% of which studied Spanish in college. Taking into account the recommendations about the teaching of Spanish as a heritage language made by these professionals, the book then describes current instructional practices used in the teaching of Spanish as an academic subject at the high school and university levels to “heritage” language students who, although educated entirely in English, acquired Spanish at home as their first language. The suggestions made by the Professionals concentrated almost exclusively on Spanish language maintenance (e.g., making cultural/historical connections; showing relevance and significance of language to students’ lives, teaching other subjects in Spanish, teaching legal, medical, business terms in Spanish). The study of goals currently guiding instruction for heritage speakers of Spanish at both the high school and the college levels, on the other hand, raise questions about the potential contribution of educational institutions to the maintenance and retention of Spanish among the current Spanish-speaking population of California.Bilingual Education and BilingualismSpanish languageStudy and teaching (Secondary)CaliforniaSpanish languageStudy and teaching (Higher)CaliforniaHispanic AmericansEducationCaliforniaSpanish languageStudy and teaching (Secondary)Spanish languageStudy and teaching (Higher)Hispanic AmericansEducation468.00712794Valdes Guadalupe877436MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910967020903321Developing minority language resources4364995UNINA
