Title A name given to the resource The Michigan Grayling Description An account of the resource This plate shows the now-extinct Michigan Grayling. This fish was once so abundant in Northern Michigan that a town was renamed “Grayling” in its honour, and a commercial train line specialized in bringing folks “up north” to fish for the Grayling in Michigan streams. Unfortunately, by the 1930s, the Michigan Grayling was extirpated due to overfishing, habitat loss, and the introduction of non-native species. Another title in this exhibition, Hallock’s The Fishing Tourist, first brought the Michigan Grayling to the attention of anglers only 25 years earlier.

Cook Book Description An account of the resource The Imperial Order of the Daughters of the Empire was founded in 1900 to support the British Empire during the Boer War. The Military Chapter of Calgary was formed in 1914 (Glenbow, “IODE”). Likely published around 1927 (Driver 1054), this cookbook includes such notable recipes as “Ham Funeral,” making a ghoulish use of leftovers, and “Marmalade and Vermicelli Pudding,” perhaps adapted from the popular Indian dish. Prohibition ended in 1924 in Alberta, making the recipes for beetroot and parsnip wines an acceptable addition to the repertoire. Like many cookbooks, this I.O.D.E. volume opens with a poem. Its last two lines are frequently repeated in community cookbooks: We may live without poetry, music and art We may live without conscience and live without heart; We may live without friends, we may live without books— But civilized man cannot live without cooks.

Title A name given to the resource The Moon Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource James Nasmyth (creator) James Carpenter (creator) Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1885 22.0 x 15.0 cm QB 581 N26 1885 Description An account of the resource The Moon: Considered as a Planet, a World, and a Satellite by British scientists James Nasmyth and James Carpenter raises questions about the role that photographs play in circulating knowledge. The book’s photographs offer a likeness of the moon, and circulated knowledge about the moon’s surface, but what the pictures record was not the moon at all. Based on observations through the telescope, Nasmyth and Carpenter created plaster models of the moon’s surface and then photographed the models under precise lighting conditions. The results are certainly photographic, recording an <a href="https://omeka.library.ualberta.ca/exhibits/show/photograpies/what-is-photography">indexical</a> relationship to their subjects, but, to what extent do they deliver the type of truthful image that we commonly expect of photographic images?  The photographs included in the volume were created by the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cOqsaCu-_yw&feature=emb_title" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Woodburytype process</a>, which records a wider range of tones than many other photomechanical processes. A full scan of Nasmyth and Carpenter's The Moon is available through the <a href="https://archive.org/details/moonconsideredas00nasmiala" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Internet Archive</a>.

Title A name given to the resource The North American Indian Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Edward Curtis (photographer) Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1907 32.5 x 26 cm (folio plates 57 x 46 cm) E 77 C97 1907 Description An account of the resource The North American Indian is a twenty-volume study of Indigenous peoples in North America, published by photographer <a href="https://www.loc.gov/collections/edward-s-curtis/about-this-collection/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Edward Curtis</a> between 1907 and 1930. Bruce Peel Special Collections houses all twenty volumes, each illustrated with <a href="https://www.nga.gov/research/online-editions/alfred-stieglitz-key-set/practices-and-processes/photogravures.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">photogravures</a>, as well as accompanying portfolios of the photographic plates. Curtis's photographs offer an example of the Pictorialist aesthetic popular among art photographers at the turn of the century. As explained on the <a href="https://archive.artic.edu/stieglitz/pictorialism/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Art Institute of Chicago's website</a>, Pictorialists like Curtis "preferred romantic or idealized imagery over the documentation of modern life, welcoming artistic composition and soft focus." These characteristics permeate Curtis's photographs in The North American Indian.  Iroquois artist <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iG-Opj3NGC4%20" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jeff Thomas</a> has said that Curtis's photographs make him "long to hear the subjects' voices." With his project <a href="https://jeff-thomas.ca/2014/04/my-north-american-indian-v21/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">My North American Indian Volume 21</a>, Thomas engages Curtis's images in order to—in Thomas's words—"challenge the silences in the archive; to build a new paradigm that connects past and present." The complete set of Curtis's The North American Indian is one of the highlights of the <a href="https://bpsc.library.ualberta.ca/collections/gregory-s-javitch-collection" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gregory S. Javitch Collection</a> of books about North and South American Indigenous peoples and cultures.
