PDF-[READ]-Stitching the World: Embroidered Maps and Women’s Geographical Education (Studies

From the late eighteenth century until about 1840 schoolgirls in the British Isles and the United States created embroidered map samplers and even silk globes Hundreds of British maps were made and although American examples are more rare they form a significant collection of artefacts Descriptions of these samplers stated that they were designed to teach needlework and geography The focus of this book is not on stitches and techniques used in drafting the maps but rather why they were developed how they diffused from the British Isles to the United States and why they were made for such a brief time The events of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries stimulated an explosion of interest in geography The American and French Revolutions the wars between France and England the War of 1812 Captain Cooks voyages and the explorations of Lewis and Clark made the study of places exciting and important Geography was the first science taught to girls in school This period also coincided with major changes in educational theories and practices especially for girls and this book uses needlework maps and globes to chart a broader discussion of womens geographic education In this light map samplers and embroidered globes represent a transition in womens education from accomplishments in the eighteenth century to challenging geographic education and conventional map drawing in schools and academies of the second half of the nineteenth century There has been little serious study of these maps by cartographers and moreover historians of cartography have largely neglected the role of women in mapping Childrens maps have not been studied although they might have much to offer about geographical teaching and perceptions of a period and map samplers have been dismissed because they are the work of schoolgirls Needlework historians likewise have not done in depth studies of map samplers until recently Stitching the World is an interdisciplinary work drawing on cartography needlework and material culture This book for the first time provides a critical analysis of these artefacts showing that they offer significant insights into both eighteenth and nineteenthcentury geographic thought and cartography in the USA and the UK and into the development of female education.

Featuring current information and challenging perspectives on the latest issues and forces shaping the American educational system--with scholarship that is often cited as a primary source--Joel Spring introduces readers to the historical, political, social and legal foundations of education and to the profession of teaching in the United States. In his signature straightforward, concise approach to describing complex issues, he illuminates events and topics that are often overlooked or whitewashed, giving students the opportunity to engage in critical thinking about education. Students come away informed on the latest topics, issues and data and with a strong knowledge of the forces shaping the American educational system.Thoroughly updated throughout, the 20th edition of this clear, authoritative text remains fresh and up to date, reflecting the many changes in education that have occurred since the publication of the previous edition, such as:The effects of the pandemic on schools, teachers, students, learning and social goalsThe latest U.S. Department of Education guidelines for school prayer, regulations on sexual harassment and Title IX and guidelines for writing IEPs Expanded discussion of institutional racismCoverage relating to transgender youth and athletics This is the first book to catalog comparative maps and tableaux that visualize the heights and lengths of the world\'s mountains and rivers. Produced predominantly in the nineteenth century, these beautifully rendered maps emerged out of the tide of exploration and scientific developments in measuring techniques. Beginning with the work of explorer Alexander von Humboldt, these historic drawings reveal a world of artistic and imaginative difference. Many of them give way—and with visible joy—to the power of fantasy in a mesmerizing array of realistic and imaginary forms. Most of the maps are from the David Rumsey Historical Map Collection at Stanford University. In this revelatory new book, Marshall explores ten regions that are set to shape global politics in a new age of great-power rivalry: Australia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the UK, Greece, Turkey, the Sahel, Ethiopia, Spain and Space. Find out why Europe’s next refugee crisis is closer than it thinks as trouble brews in the Sahel why the Middle East must look beyond oil and sand to secure its future why the eastern Mediterranean is one of the most volatile flashpoints of the twenty-first century and why the Earth’s atmosphere is set to become the world’s next battleground.
