Body type : intimate messages etched in flesh / by Saltz, Ina,author.(CARDINAL)479567;
Foreword -- Introduction -- Literature, poetry & lyrics -- Typography -- Self-expression -- Self-love -- Love -- Politics -- Religion -- Belief systems -- Homage -- Acknowledgments -- Credits."Body Type is an eye-opening look into the amazingly creative ways that tattoo artists are utilizing typography. Whereas the majority of tattoo art uses images to convey messages, here the message actually is the image. Twenty-six alphabetical characters might not seem like much to work with, but a look through these photographs reveals the contrary. Here are truly unique social commentaries, expressions of love, hilarious examples of biting satire, plus some mottos, intricate logotypes, deeply personal song lyrics, and, of course, those tattoos that exist for one reason only: to shock the hell out of you. The crisp photographs are accompanied by an insightful commentary from renowned graphic designer and typographer Ina Saltz, plus consistently surprising and heartfelt explanations from the tattooed."--

Illuminating women in the medieval world / by Sciacca, Christine,1976-author.(CARDINAL)315553; J. Paul Getty Museum,issuing body.(CARDINAL)140825;
Medieval ideals of womanhood -- Warnings to medieval women -- Medieval women in daily life -- Medieval women in the arts."When one thinks of women in the Middle Ages, the images that often come to mind are those of damsels in distress, mystics in convents, female laborers in the field, and even women of ill repute. In reality, however, medieval conceptions of womanhood were multifaceted, and women's roles were varied and nuanced. Female stereotypes existed in the medieval world, but so too did women of power and influence. The pages of illuminated manuscripts reveal to us the many facets of medieval womanhood and slices of medieval life--from preoccupations with biblical heroines and saints to courtship, childbirth, and motherhood. While men dominated artistic production, this volume demonstrates the ways in which female artists, authors, and patrons were instrumental in the creation of illuminated manuscripts."--
