Seminar: Using Graphic Arts as Primary Sources
American Antiquarian Society, Worcester, MA 01609
Sunday, June 3 through Tuesday, June 5, 2001
http://www.americanantiquarian.org/artseminar.htm
Under the auspices of the Program in the History of the Book in
American Culture, the American Antiquarian Society (AAS) will sponsor
a hands-on workshop for scholars on the use of graphic arts materials
as primary sources in historical research. Topics reflecting two of
the strengths of AAS's graphic arts collection have been selected as
this year's focus. Visiting scholars will lead sessions on using city
views and maps to reconstruct nineteenth-century communities and
studying political prints to understand the Jacksonian Era. One
session will focus on publications that exemplify the ways in which
historians have creatively used images as research documents.
