The concept of sustainability as we know it today owes it origins to the small hamlets of 14th century Germany, where villagers relied on extracting a sustainable yield from collectively-owned forests. History is punctuated with examples of cultures that have flourished or died off due to the economic, social and environmental sustainability of their daily behavior and decisions. This exhibit explores these issues and illustrates how members of the Duke community can create a more sustainable world.<\/p>\n

“I Take Up My Pen”: British Women Writers in the Nineteenth Century<\/em><\/p>\n

\"image<\/div>\n

Nineteenth century Britain—a world of progress and reform, discovery and innovation, industrialization and social upheaval—was also the era of the professional woman writer. Nineteenth century women, desiring to contribute to cultural discourse, to voice their opinions, and to tell their own stories, demanded a place beside men in the world of letters.<\/p>\n

This exhibit focuses on women’s writing as both a means of self-definition and a powerful tool for social change and highlights the tension between women’s domestic lives and their public contributions to nineteenth century discourse.<\/p>\n

Abusing Power: Satirical Journals from the Special Collections Library<\/em><\/p>\n

\"satirical<\/div>\n

Duke’s outstanding collection of satirical magazines offers a panoramic view of international journalistic caricature from its origins in the 1830s to the present day. This show surveys the spectrum of comic journalism, examining the visual languages of graphic satire and investigating its rhetorical power. <\/p>\n

The Perkins exhibit is curated by Neil McWilliam, Walter H. Annenberg Professor in the Department of Art, Art History & Visual Studies with the assistance of some of his students and coincides with an exhibition of contemporary and historical graphic satire at Duke’s Nasher Museum<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The Nasher exhibition, developed by Duke and UNC undergraduate seniors and graduate students, will feature works from the founding of journalistic caricature—the campaign mounted by Daumier and his contemporaries against French monarch Louis-Philippe (1830–1848)—and compare them to cartoons of the Clinton and Bush presidencies. The Duke students working on the exhibit are enrolled in McWilliam’s visual studies course, “From Caricature to Comic Strip.”<\/p>\n
