ORIGIN OF THE PROJECT In Spring of 1968 a research project
concerning the scholastic philosophy in the Iberian Colonies of
America was submitted to the Institute of Latin American Studies in
the University of Texas by Dr. Ignacio Angelelli, of the Department
of Philosophy of the same University. I should like to quote some
relevant passages from the proposal by way of historical back
ground. In the last decade, leading philosophical historiography
has become more and more interested in the "minor" figures and the
"traditional" schools which flourished between 1500 and 1800.
Historians of philosophy are interested not only in men like
Descartes and Kant, but also in the less brilliant and more
"conservative" authors. It is also interesting to note in this
regard that the late Professor P. Wilpert (Cologne), editor of the
new edition of Ueberweg, intended to divide the section on the
Neuzeit into two volumes, one for the major figures and the other
for the exponents of the various forms of scholasticism of the
period 1500-1800. One of these conservative philosophical movements
is what has been called the seconda scolastica, which developed in
Catholic countries and particularly in Spain and Portugal.
Naturally, this "traditional" thought in Europe after 1500 was
bound to have an impact on the Spanish and Portuguese Colonies.
Indeed, the amount of scholastic philosophy taught in the American
Colonies between 1530 and 1800 is impressive. This fact has not yet
been acknowledged by international historiography."
For more than fifty years, Walter Bernard and Milton Glaser have
revolutionized the look of magazine journalism. In Mag Men, Bernard
and Glaser recount their storied careers, offering insiders'
perspective on some of the most iconic design work of the twentieth
century. The authors look back on and analyze some of their most
important and compelling projects, from the creation of New York
magazine to redesigns of such publications as Time, Fortune, Paris
Match, and The Nation, explaining how their designs complemented a
story and shaped the visual identity of a magazine. Richly
illustrated with the covers and interiors that defined their
careers, Mag Men is bursting with vivid examples of Bernard and
Glaser's work, designed to encapsulate their distinctive approach
to visual storytelling and capture the major events and trends of
the past half century. Highlighting the importance of collaboration
in magazine journalism, Bernard and Glaser detail their
relationships with a variety of writers, editors, and artists,
including Nora Ephron, Tom Wolfe, Gail Sheehy, David Levine,
Seymour Chwast, Katherine Graham, Clay Felker, and Katrina vanden
Heuvel. The book features a foreword by Gloria Steinem, who
reflects on her work in magazines and her collaborations with
Bernard and Glaser. At a time when uncertainty continues to cloud
the future of print journalism, Mag Men offers not only a personal
history from two of its most innovative figures but also a reminder
and celebration of the visual impact and sense of style that only
magazines can offer.
