History of Venetian Blinds

Venetian blinds are the most popular type of window blind. But what exactly is a Venetian blind, where did they originate, and how did they become so popular?

Venetian blinds are horizontal slats – usually made of vinyl, aluminium or wood – used to cover a window. Loops of string are looped through holes in the slats, connecting each slat in such a way that turning a rod connected to the string turns the slats inwards or outwards – allowing you to close and open the blinds. Venetian blinds can also be pulled up to the top of the window, so you can have a clear view.

Although their name suggests an Italian origin, Venetian blinds were actually invented by the Japanese. The concept was popular throughout China and Persia, and Venetian traders working in the area brought the blinds to Italy. When the Venetian slaves were freed, they went to France, and many began making and selling the blinds to earn a living. The French, who loved adorning their homes with exotic items to increase personal comfort, adored the Venetian blinds, or “Les Persienes”.

The English, keen to follow the French in all trends, quickly adopted Venetian blinds. In 1769, Edward Beran patented his Venetian blind design in London.

Venetian blinds appeared in the US on St. Peter’s Church in Philadelphia in 1761 and were in the Independence Hall where the Declaration of Independence was signed. In 1767, John Webster of London began advertising his range of Venetian blinds in the US.

In 1841, John Hampson of New Orleans patented a unique system (virtually unchanged today) for stringing and adjusting the slats of Venetian blinds.

They became popular in office buildings to regulate and air. Famous among these offices clad in Venetian blinds include the Radio City building in New York City, and the old Empire State Building. Burlington Blind Co. placed the largest order for Venetian blinds ever recorded to cover the windows of that 102-storey office building.

The patterned shadows cast by light reflecting through a window covered in Venetian blinds has been used in film noir and photography to represent scenes of tension and drama.

Holiness by Webster, John Webster, John Edition , 0 $19.99 A masterful account of God’s holiness. A world-renowned theologian here offers a succinct account of a central yet neglected theme in Christian teaching–the holiness of God. Integrating biblical studies, theology, and practical application, John Webster provides a thoroughgoing trinitarian understanding of God’s holiness with highly relevant results. According to Webster, God’s holiness is known not in his simple transcendence but in his gracious and free relationship to his people. Such holiness finds an echo in the holiness of the Christian community, especially in worship and witness, and in the life of the individual disciple. Profound yet readily accessible to a wide range of readers, Holiness offers an ideal entry into reflection on the Christian God.

For Student Series Drama: The White Devil by John Webster $8.99 John Webster’s The White Devil is a story of passion and revenge. Written and first performed in 1612, The White Devil is loosely based on a sensational event that happened in Italy some thirty years earlier: the murder of historical Vittoria Accoramboni in Padua, on December 22, 1585. Webster apparently used one or more chronicles of the event for his plot line, his settings, and his characters. According to John Russell Brown, however, Webster had to be very careful as he retold this story. Webster’s interest was not so much in the historical accuracy of his retelling, but rather in the way this story could “[depict] the political and moral state of England in his own day.” Although The White Devil is an example of the revenge tragedy genre, a popular Jacobean form of drama, Webster’s design and purpose in the play are not always clear. Many critics contend that this is a seriously flawed play, one that has no central purpose other than to reveal the corruption at the heart of court life. There are other, more recent critics, however, who argue that Webster’s creation of a chaotic world lacking stability is a masterpiece. Indeed, Webster’s play is a commentary on the fragmentary, shifting nature of reality itself. As Brown writes, “The white devil herself is at the centre of the story and its staging, but she is by no means a stabilizing factor; she is always changing, and changing the audience’s view of other persons.” The White Devil continues to fascinate audiences and readers alike; Manchester University Press….

The Duchess of Malfi by Webster, John; Brown, John Russell Edition STU, 0 $9.99 More widely studied and more frequently performed than ever before, John Webster’s The Duchesss of Malfi is here presented in an accessible and thoroughly up-to-date edition. Based on the often reprinted Revels Plays Edition of 1964, the notes have been augmented to cast further light on Webster’s amazing dialogue and on the stage action which it implies. An entirely new introduction sets the tragedy in the context of pre-Civil War England and gives a revealing view of its themes, action and visual imagery. From its well-documented early performances to the two productions seen in the West End of London in the 1995-96 season, a stage history gives an account of the play in performance. Students, actors, directors and theatre-goers will fiind here a reappraisal of Webster’s artistry in the tragedy which stands in the very first rank of plays from perhaps the greatest age of English theatre, and reasons why it has lived on stage with renewed force in the last decades of the twentieth century.

For Student Series Drama: The Duchess of Malfi by John Webster $8.99 John Webster’s The Duchess of Malfi was written in 1613 or 1614, and had at least two successful productions in London before it was published in 1623 under the title The Tragedy of the Duchesse of Malfy. Generally considered to be Webster’s masterpiece, it tells the story of a young widow who marries against the wishes of her powerful brothers, setting off a storm of revenge. The startling violence, the unbelievable plot twists, the mysterious motives of the brothers, and the calm strength of the Duchess have made The Duchess of Malfi a subject for fierce debate for hundreds of years. Critics and reviewers have loved or hated the play, with equal fervor. The Duchess’s story is based on actual events that took place in Italy in the early sixteenth century. Webster freely borrowed elements of his story from several sources, including William Painter’s popular collection of stories, The Palace of Pleasure (1566–1567), and Sir Philip Sidney’s romance Arcadia (1590), and also borrowed dramatic elements from the Revenge Tragedy tradition, but he adapted the source materials to suit his own themes and dramatic purpose. The Duchess of Malfi is widely available in high school and college anthologies. It is also available separately as a Dover Thrift edition and collected in The Duchess of Malfi and Other Plays (1998), part of the Oxford World Classics series.

John Webster, Renaissance Dramatist by Coleman, David Edition ILL, 0 $59.99 Transgressive and darkly brilliant, the drama of John Webster has long been celebrated as one of the crowning glories of the English Renaissance. David Coleman locates Webster's remarkable plays within the context of the tumultuous political, religious, and economic climate of Jacobean London. He reintroduces readers to the playwright's great tragedies and familiarizes them with lesser-known works. He unpacks the fascination and repulsion expressed by generations of critics and theatergoers, ultimately arguing that the relevance and resonance of Webster is nowhere near extinct. This marks the only introductory guide to Webster's work that takes recent scholarship into account. Chapters devoted to The White Devil, The Duchess of Malfi, and The Devil's Law-Case situate each of these plays within their historical, cultural, and critical contexts. Coleman also recounts the performances of these plays, from their original stage production to today's cinematic interpretations.

Webster by Mrazik, John J. Manzi, Carla Manzi, James J. Edition ILL, 0 $21.99 Webster, located in south central Massachusetts, is home to the glacially created Webster Lake. The lake, famously known as Lake Chargoggagoggmanchauggagoggchaubunagungamaugg, was responsible for sustaining a significant Native American population. Its waterpower potential attracted Samuel Slater, the father of American manufacturers, to locate his textile mills here, and in 1832, at Slater's behest, the towns of Oxford and Dudley reluctantly granted the land for Webster's formation. Many immigrants were attracted to the town because of mill employment and the pleasant living conditions near the lake. Through vintage photographs, Webster highlights this town's mill life and the lake's impact on its development.

The Duchess of Malfi by Webster, John; Gibbons, Brian Edition ILL, 4 $16.49 One of the most haunting tragedies written in the Jacobean period, The Duchess of Malfi (1614) adapts the true story of a noble Italian widow who secretly marries her steward and has children with him. Her two brothers, enraged by this act of female self-determination, begin to spy on the happy family, entrap them and subject their sister to fiendish psychological torture before they have her strangled. Unlike his sources, Webster does not condemn the Duchess for lasciviousness, nor does he allow her brothers to live. As the introduction to this edition shows, the play is replete with reverberations of earlier tragedies, most prominently Hamlet and Othello, and has few equals as a skilful and stirring rendition of Jacobean dramatic fashions.

Excerpt: Abraham Cohen de Herrera (Hebrew : – ) also known as Alonso Nunez de Herrera or Abaham Irira (c. 1570 c. 1635) was a religious philosopher and cabbalist . He is supposed by the historian Heinrich Graetz to have been born in 1570. He is widely supposed to have been descended from a Marrano family: place of birth is unknown but may (according to Barbosa Machado the biographer ) have been Lisbon , Portugal . Other sources link him to Italy , specifically Tuscany , and as the son of the last Chief Rabbi of Córdoba in Spain .He is known to have married a Sara de Herrera in Amsterdam in 1600; however, it is unlikely that this is the wife’s original surname. It is also reasonably certain that he had an uncle, Juan de Marchena, who worked as a factor for the Sultan of Morocco Moulay, Achmed-el-Mansur.While in Cadiz on the Sultan ‘s business, Herrera is supposed to have been captured by the English , was released again after an exchange of diplomatic correspondence between the Sultan and Queen Elizabeth I , and travelled thereafter to Amsterdam, where he returned to
