A Social Contract for the Coal Fields
Mulcahy (history and political science, U. of Pittsburgh, Titusville) describes the United Mine Workers of America Welfare and Retirement Fund from its creation in 1946 to the termination of its medical service in 1978. Unlike other union-sponsored programs, the Fund was fully noncontributory, offered a pension over and above Social Security, and worked to secure the best medical treatment for its beneficiaries. Mulcahy's study, based upon the Fund's records, private papers, and interviews with surviving members of the Fund's staff, shows how the Fund was an exemplar of the New Deal Order. His analysis extends to the mismanagement by union officials and the changes in the industry which eventually undermined the program. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR

The Traveling Artist in the Italian Renaissance
This important and innovative book examines artists' mobility as a critical aspect of Italian Renaissance art. It is well known that many eminent artists such as Cimabue, Giotto, Donatello, Lotto, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Titian traveled. This book is the first to consider the sixteenth-century literary descriptions of their journeys in relation to the larger Renaissance discourse concerning mobility, geography, the act of creation, and selfhood. David Young Kim carefully explores relevant themes in Giorgio Vasari's monumental Lives of the Artists, in particular how style was understood to register an artist's encounter with place. Through new readings of critical ideas, long-standing regional prejudices, and entire biographies, The Traveling Artist in the Italian Renaissance provides a groundbreaking case for the significance of mobility in the interpretation of art and the wider discipline of art history.
