a little frustrated
I was just wondering how everybody else was doing on the research portion of their Realism scenes because I have tried to find American mannerisms around the turn of the century but I have come up almost completely empty handed. I have found some great pictures that I believe will help; however, when I searched on jstor, the internet, and the Lilly library for a book, I could not find anything that really could help me. If any of you have any suggestions let me know please. Maybe I just overlooked somethings that would be beneficial. I guess I will just continue to look.

Try period newspaper accounts. Society sections can be useful. I have found a couple of books that might help, but you'd need to ILLIAD them and they may not be available in time.
ReplyDeletePopular stories/novels of the time can be a big help as well.
Emily Post published her first book in 1922, so that might work.
