This title was first published in 2000: An examination of developments in British printmaking which started in the middle of the 19th century with the Etching Revival and continued into the middle of the 20th century with the experimental work carried out at Corsham and St Ives in the 1950s. During this period, printmaking came to be regarded as a direct means of artistic expression rather than a means of reproduction. Chapters are devoted to: wood engraving; etching; lithography from 1875 to the 1920s; the colour woodcut; the linocut; modern lithography; the poster-print; the monotype; and St Ives. The main emphasis in these essays is the development of printmaking techniques throughout the century, as new techniques enabled artists to develop their ideas and expression. This approach avoids the usual method of categorization of artists into schools and trends. An A to Z of artists includes biographies and reference material for over 400 principal artists, all of whom are represented by at least one illustration. The 585 illustrations follow each chapter and are cross-referenced from the artists' biographies. Fourteen appendices provide useful lists of artists, exhibitions and published prints, and include a complete catalogue of all known poster-prints.

Focusing on an era that both inherited and irretrievably altered the form and the content of earlier art production, The Art-Journal and Fine Art Publishing in Victorian England, 1850-1880 argues that fine art practices and the audiences and markets for them were influenced by the media culture of art publishing and journalism in substantial and formative ways, perhaps more than at any other time in the history of English art. The study centers on forms of Victorian picture-making and the art knowledge systems defining them, and draws on the histories of art, literature, journalism, and publishing. The historical example employed in the book is that of the more than 800 steel-plate prints after paintings published in the London-based Art-Journal between 1850 and 1880. The cultural phenomenon of the Art Journal print is shown to be a key connector in mid-Victorian art appreciation by drawing out specific tropes of likeness. This study also examines the important links between paint and print; the aesthetic values and domestic aspirations of the Victorian middle class; and the inextricable intertwining of fine art and 'trade' publishing.

Brill Research Perspectives in Biblical Interpretation (RPBI) The growth of scholarly literature continues to accelerate at an exponential rate. Staying current on a variety of subjects is becoming increasingly difficult. RPBI brings a substantial range of contemporary methodological conversations about biblical literature to a wide readership. The main goal of each book is to address a particular contemporary question and/or problem of interpretive importance as it intersects with biblical scholarship, raising the issues and suggesting further directions. Race, class, gender, nationality, sexuality, geography, and ecology are examples of lenses that the authors incorporate into these discussions. These books are perfect for keeping abreast of conversations in the field, updating college and graduate-level courses with cutting-edge biblical scholarship, and exploring new and alternative approaches to long-standing questions in the field.
