Ch'ullus In Cosco: Identity In The Andes, Susan M. Kaesgen May 1999

Ch'ullus In Cosco: Identity In The Andes, Susan M. Kaesgen

MALS Final Projects, 1995-2019

This study centers on the ch'ullu, the knitted cap, usually with ear flaps and an elongated peak or tail, a hat that identifies the wearer as an indigenous Andean male. The long history of the ch'ullu is marked by both its use as geographic identifier, and as a canvas upon which to present the same designs that represent ancient Andean ideas about ancestry, land and time. Because the knitted hats of today function exactly as ancient ones did, the ch'ullu is proven a descendant of ancient hats, an important element to be preserved rather than discarded for factory made caps.

St. Finbarre’S Cathedral And Other Ecclesiastical Work In County Cork By William Burges 1827 -1881, Debbie Dawson

Theses

In this thesis I set out to examine the important role played by William Burges in the revival of stained glass in the mid-nineteenth century. I have examined how his unique vision and obsession with the thirteenth century developed through his extensive travelling abroad, studying European architecture. My central discussion is on Burges’ first major commission at the age of thirty-five; St. Finbarre’s Cathedral, Cork. Through the use of local newspapers, correspondence and documentation, such as Vestry Minute Books, designs and cartoons stored in the Chapter House of St. Finbarre’s, I have tried to put the building of St. Finbarre’s …
