Book Description: Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A.: Abrams,Harry N Inc, 1999, Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.A., 1999. Hardcover. Book Condition: Brand New. 8 x 11". Hardcover. Brand New. Compass and Clock: Defining Moments in American Culture: 1800, 1850, 1900 ; in this provocative book, a prominent art historian discusses the evolution of American culture-literature, art, architecture, and music-during the 19th century as the nation expanded and matured. John Wilmerding focuses on three turning points-around 1800, when America began to find its identity as a republic; the mid-century, a self-confident period of prosperity and growth; and the century's close, a time of anxiety over profound changes in the psychological and physical dimensions of life. The author provides stimulating analyses of the masterworks of these periods-from Walden and Moby-Dick to the paintings of Thomas Eakins and Winslow Homer-finding common threads and complementary expressions among the images that writers and visual artists alike used to convey the mood and vision of each distinctive era.
