Eight Questions: A recipe for change
Stephanie Copoulos-Selle, Special Collections, and Fleet Library
1 volume. "The artist found eight shoe boxes in her parents' laundry room full of recipes--over 8,000. Each book has original recipe cards; therefore, each is a variant, as the recipes will be different. The recipes represent her family life growing up where she felt warm & safe 'inside the kitchen with soup on the stove and bread in the oven.' Today the environment she lives in is 'frayed, full of loose ends, and knots.' Using this backdrop of happiness that the recipes represent for her she presents eight questions for us about the current status of our society--Why can't we protect our children from gun violence? Why can't we stop killing people out of hatred? Why can't we help those less fortunate? Why can't we take care of our environment? Why can't our elected officials be ethical? Why can't a woman choose what happens to her body? Why do we need so many bombs?"--Vamp & Tramp Booksellers' website, viewed February 5, 2020. llustrated, letterpress-printed paper-covered boards with sewn concertina spine with title on page 1 of cover. Cloth paste-downs. Covers hold decorative fabric pages with embroidered designs and text, and twelve handwritten recipe cards from the artist's parents' house either in cloth pockets or sewn directly to pages. Recipe cards are modified with letterpress printed text and images, and inkjet printed images.

On Canon
Craig Deksen and Darren Hudson Hick
Canon is a concept from aesthetics that has become a regular subject of commonplace discussions. The nature of canon, especially as it is used in these commonplace discussions, has not been subject to adequate philosophical scrutiny. We attempt to remedy that by placing canon in its historical and philosophical context, exploring and rejecting several common accounts, and presenting some basics of how canon works. We reject the accounts that place control with the author or the legal property holder, which appear to be the most commonly held accounts.
