FluxEuropa - dark music and more Search this site: home personae THE ART AND IDEAS OF WYNDHAM LEWIS An outline of the significance of the artist and writer, Wyndham Lewis, the leading figure of the artistic and literary movement known as Vorticism PERCY WYNDHAM LEWIS was born in 1882 on a yacht off Nova Scotia of an American father and English mother. This beginning is significant. Lewis was to become a key figure of the English intellectual, artistic and literary avant-garde of the first half of the twentieth century, and few of this talented circle were English. Lewis was Anglo-American, Ezra Pound and T S Eliot were American, W B Yeats and James Joyce were Irish and Gaudier-Brzeska was French. In 1888 the family came to England and Lewis attended Rugby and the Slade, both of which asked him to leave. An outsider, he escaped Edwardian England to live a bohemian existence in the artistic capitals of continental Europe. Fired by the examples of Cubism, Futurism and other modernist experiments, he returned to England and an explosive artistic future.

Special Collections in the Library of Congress National Child Labor Committee Collection Photographs by Lewis Hine MANUSCRIPT DIVISION In 1954, to commemorate its fiftieth anniversary, the National Child Labor Committee presented to the Library official records, correspondence, speeches, reports, press releases, and clippings from the period 1904 to 1953. The collection includes field notes and unpublished studies on child labor conditions in various industries, sixty scrapbooks documenting the organization's campaign for child welfare legislation, minutes of the meetings of the board of trustees (1904-45) and of the National Aid to Education Committee (1916-18), and proceedings of the annual conferences (1905-16). The records are supplemented by correspondence (forty-eight items) of Dr. Alexander J. McKelway, secretary for the southern states of the committee, which was given to the Library in 1947. The Manuscript Division has prepared an unpublished finding aid for the 2,800-item collection. Housed in the Prints and Photographs Division are approximately five thousand photographs and 350 original glass negatives taken by Lewis Hine (1874-1940) for the National Child Labor Committee which were also part of the 1954 gift. Between 1908 and 1924, Hine investigated the industrial exploitation of children in American mills, glass factories, mines, canneries, agriculture, street trades, and tenement sweatshops. Many of Hine's images document the problems faced by immigrant children in the United States. Photographs in the collection many of which were reproduced in the committee's publications, are grouped in albums by type of employment and keyed to the original caption files. The captions incorporate Hine's careful notes and often record the subject's age name and work duties and the place and date of the photograph. Some of the images are reproduced in Judith M. Cutman's

Home Click on your browser's back button to return to the previous page Biography of Lewis Hine Lewis Wickes Hine was born in Oshkosh, Wisconsin in 1874. After graduating from High School, he worked at various jobs before enrolling at the University of Chicago in 1900. While at the University of Chicago, Hine met Frank E. Manny, Professor of Education at the State Normal School who had recently been appointed superintendent of the Ethical Culture School in New York. In 1901, at the invitation of Manning, Hine moved to New York City and accepted a position as an assistant teacher at the ECS. Hine began at this time to use a camera as an educational tool and to photograph school events. Hine also began to attend the School of Education at New York University. In 1904, Hine, newly married to Sara Ann Rich became involved in a project to photograph Ellis Island. Anti Immigrant sentiment was pervasive and Manny encouraged Hine to portray the newly arrived with the same dignity and respect as those immigrants who landed at Plymouth Rock. In 1908, the NCLC provided Hine with a monthly salary and assigned Hine to photograph child labor practices. For the next several years, Hine traveled extensively, photographing children in mines, factories, canneries, textile mills, street trades and assorted agricultural industries. Hine’s photographs alerted the public to the fact that child labor deprived children of childhood, health, education and a chance of a future. His work on this project was the driving force behind changing the publics attitude and was instrumental in the fight for stricter child labor laws.

170. Lewis Grizzard Dixie's salute to the late humorist http://members.aol.com/dixieten3/lewis.html

Dixie Dew Music: On/Off Lewis McDonald Grizzard, Jr. He Up and Died, and Broke My Heart Lewis Grizzard for many years wrote a column for the Atlanta Journal and Constitution. He died at the age of 47 on March 20, 1994 and so did my subscription to the AJC. In addition to the AJC column Lewis also wrote several books. The titles of the books are every bit as enjoyable as the books and often convey great truths in themselves. Chili Dawgs Always Bark at Night (been there) (oh, how true!) (I've never gardened the same) Lewis Grizzard on the South.....Southern By the Grace of God (tyvm) (my personal anthem) Amazon.com and 'Suthun Thang The South.....that was Lewis. He was Moon Pies, Coca-Cola, BBQ, magnolias, boiled peanuts , college football (UGA, of course), fried catfish.....and more. If it was Southern, it was Lewis; if it was Lewis, it was Southern. In the best Southern tradition, Lewis was a great storyteller; not only in the writing of the stories but also in the oration. His classic Southern drawl and natural delivery made his personal appearances memorable. Fortunately, he made several audio tapes of his appearances and also read and produced several of his books for the audio book market. The stories told by this Southern humorist sometimes addressed the political and social issues of the day but of course, always with humor and influenced by Southern culture. Lewis never bought into political correctness which caused some to scorn his work (these would mostly be Yankees and liberals).

173. Sinclair Lewis - Autobiography Written for acceptance of Nobel Prize in Literature 1930. http://www.nobel.se/literature/laureates/1930/lewis-autobio.html

To recount my life for the Nobel Foundation, I would like to present it as possessing some romantic quality, some unique character, like Kipling 's early adventures in India, or Bernard Shaw I was born in a prairie village in that most Scandinavian part of America, Minnesota, the son of a country doctor, in 1885. Until I went East to Yale University I attended the ordinary public school, along with many Madsens, Olesons, Nelsons, Hedins, Larsons. Doubtless it was because of this that I made the hero of my second book, The Trail of the Hawk , a Norwegian, and Gustaf Sondelius, of Arrowsmith , a Swede - and to me, Dr. Sondelius is the favorite among all my characters. Of Carl Ericson of The Trail of the Hawk , I wrote -back in 1914, when I was working all day as editor for the George H. Doran Publishing Company, and all evening trying to write novels - as follows: My university days at Yale were undistinguished save for contributions to the Yale Literary Magazine. It may be interesting to say that these contributions were most of them reeking with a banal romanticism; that an author who was later to try to present ordinary pavements trod by real boots should through university days have written nearly always of Guinevere and Lancelot - of weary bitterns among sad Irish reeds - of story-book castles with troubadours vastly indulging in wine, a commodity of which the author was singularly ignorant. What the moral is, I do not know. Whether imaginary castles at nineteen lead always to the sidewalks of Main Street at thirty-five, and whether the process might be reversed, and whether either of them is desirable, I leave to psychologists.

People Biographies Entertainment Biographies L Edmonia Lewis sculptor Born: Birthplace: New York, Ohio, or New Jersey Details of her early life are uncertain. Her father was a black American and her mother an Ojibwa Indian who named her Wildfire. Lewis changed her name to Mary Edmonia while studying at Oberlin College. At the school, Lewis was accused of theft and of trying to poison two classmates. Although she was acquitted of both charges, she was not allowed to graduate. In 1863, Lewis moved to Boston and became a sculptor, specializing in abolitionists and Civil War heroes. Forever Free (1867), a marble sculpture now at the Howard University Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, is her most famous work. Lewis reached the peak of her fame when The Death of Cleopatra was presented at the 1876 Philadelphia Centennial Exposition. It is now in the National Museum of American Art in Washington, DC. The end of her life remains a mystery. Lewis was last reported living in Rome in 1911.

176. SLAINTE Biography and introduction to his works. http://www.slainte.org.uk/Scotauth/gibbodsw.htm

Lewis Grassic Gibbon James Leslie Mitchell was born in 1901 in Auchterless, but soon moved to Arbuthnott in the Mearns, countryside he was to make famous in his great trilogy A Scots quair consisting of Sunset song Cloud Howe (1933) and Grey granite (1934). He was fortunate, like many Scots, in an early schoolmaster who recognised a precocious talent. His early experiences were diverse and unsatisfactory: he left school early, dabbled unsuccessfully in journalism, enlisted in the armed forces (which he hated) simply to survive in the Depression, though he was to travel to the Middle East and fire his imagination with the material of his first short stories which finally won him publication in the late 1920s. A flurry of books marked the last half-dozen years of his life. Not everyone realised there were two authors producing a stream of material; there was a Scottish writer of great talent who called himself "Lewis Grassic Gibbon", a thin disguise of his mother's maiden name; there was a professional journalist and critic called "J. Leslie Mitchell" who kept an independent output of material just as professional, just as well written, but drawn from very different sources.
