Many of the early students also brought their slaves to the college with them. Upon Emancipation some of the African Americans of the community--mostly women--stayed on as servants, forming what is now called the Hollins Community. Although the servants played an integral part in the college's success, students were strongly discouraged from acknowledging them as people. Rules forbidding any 'familiarity' with the servants perpetuated a prejudicial attitude toward the African American community that would persist well into the 1940s. Determined to give voice to the African American community that served as the silent workforce for Hollins College, Ethel Morgan Smith [herself a graduate of Hollis College] succeeded in finding individuals to step forward and tell their stories."--jacket ; VG/VG.

DJ has slight wear and soiling. Hollis Sigler, a leading feminist artist, was diagnosed in 1985 as having breast cancer. After it recurred she began a pictor…ial journal, now encompassing more than 100 works, which combines personal experience with family history, medical statistics and the raising of political awareness. This volume brings together 60 of her paintings, with additional essays by the artist, Dr Susan M Love and James Yood, who draw parallels between Sigler and Frida Kahlo. From Wikipedia: "Hollis Sigler (1948 2001) was a Chicago-based artist whose paintings addressed her life with breast cancer. She died of the disease in 2001, at the age of 53 ] She received degrees from both Moore College of Art and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Her mature artistic style was faux-naïve, featuring paintings whose subjects, furniture and clothing set in doll-house type interiors and suburban landscapes, were stand-ins for the implicitly female figure. She was an openly lesbian artist and a prominent member of the faculty of Columbia College in Chicago. After being diagnosed with breast cancer in 1985, Sigler s themes became more personal, confronting ideas about body image, heredity, illness, mortality and hope.Breast cancer ran in Sigler s family; her great-grandmother, Sarah Anna Truitt Ryan, died of the disease and Sigler s mother, diagnosed with breast cancer in 1983, succumbed to it in April 1995. Sigler received a diagnosis of breast cancer in August 1985. The artist underwent a mastectomy and chemotherapy, but by 1993 the cancer had spread to her bones, pelvis and spine. Among the first art works dealing with her illness that Sigler produced after her cancer diagnosis was a series of five vitreograph prints. Produced in the fall of 1985 at Littleton Studios in North Carolina, the prints, titled "When Choice isn't Possible, " "Forever Unobtainable, " "Needing to Make a Change, " "She still Dreams of Flying" and "There is Healing to be Done" introduced a darker side to the artist's woman-oriented works. Almost a decade after those works where produced, Sigler noted in a 1994 interview that she thought the images in her paintings would change as she changed; instead, while the content of her work changed, her imagery remained the same. In an interview published in Chicago s New Art Examiner, Sigler said that she realized that she would eventually die of breast cancer, and this knowledge had changed the way she approached her art. In 1992 she began her series of paintings Breast Cancer Journal: Walking with the Ghosts of My Grandmothers. Intensely personal, the vividly colored works portray unpeopled scenes where women s clothing (dresses, aprons, corsets, gloves and stockings), furniture (including chairs, beds and vanities) and antique sculptures (including the Nike of Samothrace and the Venus de Milo) are surrogates for the artist. Embued with a life of their own, they enact the emotional responses of the artist to her illness. These paintings could be shockingly forthright. In a review of the 1993 exhibition "The Breast Cancer Journal: Walking with the Ghosts of my Grandmothers" at the National Museum of Women in the Arts, journalist Lee Fleming wrote of the content of one painting in particular: "The glorious Nike of Samothrace, "Winged Victory, " stands in armless profile atop a shallow fiery-hued tumulus not unlike a breast. Red rain falls; a bloodied, paving-stone path encirles the mound like a scar. The ground inside and outside this red-gray line is littered with discarded contemporary and antique clothes, all of which share a bleeding cutout where one breast would be." The paintings could also embody the artist's vision of the spiritual human being triumphing over the ordeal of breast cancer. Fleming cites "To Kiss the Spirits: Now this is What it is Really Like, " as an example of a painting that "sums up Sigler's struggle in a glorio. Sigler, Hollis (illustrator).

The Sandars Lectures in Bibliography. Inscribed: 'Ron from Bill Bond/1991'. 'Thomas Hollis, a connoisseur and collector of art and antiquities, devoted the greater p…art of his substance and his energy to promoting the ideals of civil and religious liberty. Hollis is best known to modern bibliophiles for the distinctive bindings that he commissioned for the many books he distributed in Britain, the American colonies, and all over Europe. This book contains the first comprehensive catalogue and interpretation of his emblematic binding tools and a discussion of the several binders who worked for him. It also explores other activities that are less well known: his patronage of writers, printers, publishers, and artists, and his work as a designer of books and medals. This study should encourage a re-evaluation of Hollis's influence in the Age of Enlightenment and the Age of Revolution' (Cambridge University Press Web site).

Four years on from the invasion of Iraq, the Iraq Commission was formed to provide recommendations to the new British Government on the… way forward. It addresses the present situation in terms of security, politics, economy, humanitarian assistance, Iraq's neighbours, the coalition, and international community. Recommendations cover on international action, UK military action, reconstruction, and humanitarian action. Appendices detail the workings of the Commission, its members, Secretariat, witnesses, submissions, remit, etc. It was chaired by Paddy Ashdown, Margaret Ann Jay, and Tom King. Its other members included Professor Brian Brivati, David Hannay, Rosemary Hollis, Paul Lever, Andrew Ridgway, Maeve Sherlock, Asim Siddiqui, Stephen Twigg, and Patrick Walker. Recognising that the issue remains deeply divisive and that not enough debate has focused on the aftermath, the Commission included individuals from both sides of the argument about the initial decision to go to war. This copy belonged to Rosemary Hollis (1952-2020), then Director of Research at Chatham House. In recognition of her contribution, the other Commissioners have signed the title page with brief messages of thanks. Some of the signatures are first names or initials only. Ridgway's is personalised: "Thank you Rosemary! x Andrew". Inscribed by Author(s).
