The Winterthur Museum is a collection and a house. There are many museums

devoted to the decorative arts and many house museums, but rarely in the United States

is a great collection displayed in a great country house. Passing through successive

Line generations of a single family, Winterthur has been a private estate for more than a

(5) century. Even after the extensive renovations made to it between 1929 and 1931, the

house remained a family residence. This fact is of importance to the atmosphere and

effect of the museum. The impression of a lived-in house is apparent to the visitor; the

rooms look as if they were vacated only a short while ago ― whether by the original

owners of the furniture of the most recent residents of the house can be a matter of

(10) personal interpretation. Winterthur remains, then, a house in which a collection of

furniture and architectural elements has been assembled. Like an English country

house, it is an organic structure; the house, as well as the collection and manner of

displaying it to the visitor, has changed over the years. The changes have coincided

with developing concepts of the American arts, increased knowledge on the part of

(15) collectors and students, and a progression toward the achievement of a historical effect

in period-room displays. The rooms at Winterthur have followed this current, yet still

retained the character of a private house.

The concept of a period room as a display technique has developed gradually over

the years in an effort to present works of art in a context that would show them to

(20) grater effect and would give them more meaning for the viewer. Comparable to the

habitat group in a natural history museum, the period room represents the decorative

arts in a lively and interesting manner and provides an opportunity to assemble objects

related by style, date, or place of manufacture.

For centuries, poets, writers and musicians have mentioned the ao dai in poems, novels and songs. The ao dai is the traditional dress of Vietnamese women. It consists of a long silk tunic that is slit on the sides and worn over loose pants. Traditionally, it was frequently worn bv both men and women. The desian and material used for men were different from those used for women. Nowadays, women usually wear it, especially on special occasions. However, many Vietnamese women today often prefer to wear modern clothing at work, because it is more convenient.

Now fashion designers want to change the traditional ao dai. Some have printed lines of poetry on the ao dai, so they look modern and very fashionable. Other designers have taken inspiration from Vietnam’s ethnic minorities.

They have visited villages and studied traditional designs and symbols such as suns, stars, crosses, and stripes. They have added these patterns to the ao dai, so Vietnamese women can continue to wear the unique dress, which is now both traditional and fashionable

Diffusion, the process of introducing cultural elements from one society into another, occurs in three basic patterns: direct contact, intermediate contact, and stimulus diffusion. In direct contact, elements of a society’s culture may be adopted first by neighboring societies and then gradually spread farther afield. The spread of the manufacture of paper is an example of extensive diffusion by direct contact. The invention of paper is attributed to the Chinese Ts’ai Lun in A.D. 105. Within fifty years, paper was being made in many places in central China. By 264 it was found in Chinese Turkmenistan, and from then on the successive places of manufacture were Samarkand (751), Baghdad (793), Egypt (about 900), Morocco (about 1100), and France (1189). In general, the pattern of accepting the borrowed invention was the same everywhere. Paper was first imported into each area as a luxury, then in ever-expanding quantities as a staple product. Finally, usually within one to three centuries, local manufacture started. Diffusion by intermediated contact occurs through the agency of third parties. Frequently, traders carry a cultural trait from the society that originated it to another group. As an example of diffusion through intermediaries, Phoenician traders spread the alphabet, which may have been invented by another Semitic group, to Greece. At times, soldiers serve as intermediaries in spreading a culture trait. During the Middle Ages, European soldiers acted as intermediaries in two ways: they carried European culture to Arab societies of North Africa and brought Arab culture back to Europe. In the nineteenth century Western missionaries brought Western-style clothing to such places as Africa and the Pacific islands. In stimulus diffusion, knowledge of a trait belonging to another culture stimulates the invention or development of a local equivalent. A classic example of stimulus diffusion is the creation of the Cherokee syllabic writing system by a Native American named Sequoya. Sequoya got the idea from his contact with the English; yet he did not adopt the writing system nor did he even learn to write English. He utilized some English alphabetic symbols, altered others, and invented new ones. All the symbols he used represented Cherokee syllables and had a distinctly Cherokee form.

Phim hoạt hình có ít giới hạn . Nếu bạn có thể vẽ một cái gì đó, bạn có thể làm cho nó di chuyển trên màn hình rạp chiếu phim. Việc sử dụng những ý tưởng mới và các chương trình máy tính tiên tiến có nghĩa là phim hoạt hình đang trở nên sôi động trở lại cho mọi người ở mọi lứa tuổi.

Đến cuối những năm 1970, thế giới điện ảnh đã quyết định rằng phim hoạt hình này chỉ dành cho trẻ em.

Nhưng ngay sau đó, một hoặc hai giám đốc đã có một số ý tưởng ban đầu. Họ đã chứng minh rằng nó đã có thể làm cho bộ phim mà cả người lớn và trẻ em có thể chia sẻ những niềm vui.

Tuy nhiên, không phải mọi bộ phim hoạt hình đã thành công. The Black Cauldron, ví dụ, đã thất bại, chủ yếu là bởi vì nó đã gây quá sợ hãi cho trẻ em và quá là trẻ em cho người lớn. Giám đốc học từ sai lầm này, và các công ty điện ảnh bắt đầu làm cho số lượng lớn

Phim hoạt hình có rất ít hạn chế. Nếu bạn có thể vẽ một cái gì đó, bạn cũng có thể làm cho nó di chuyển trên màn hình điện ảnh. Việc sử dụng những ý tưởng mới và các chương trình máy tính tiên tiến có nghĩa là phim hoạt hình đang một lần nữa trở nên thú vị cho mọi người ở mọi lứa tuổi.

Vào khoảng cuối thập niên 1970, ngành công nghiệp điện ảnh quốc tế đã quyết định rằng phim hoạt hình chỉ dành cho trẻ em.

Nhưng ngay sau đó, một hoặc hai người quản lý đã có một số ý tưởng mới ban đầu. Họ chứng minh rằng việc làm ra những bộ phim mà cả người lớn và trẻ em có thể chia sẻ niềm vui là có thể thực hiện được.

Tuy nhiên, không phải tất cả phim phim hoạt hình đều thành công. Ví dụ như bộ phim cái vạc màu đen thất bại chủ yếu bởi nó quá đáng sợ đối với trẻ em và quá trẻ con đối với người lớn. Những người quản lý đã học được từ sai lầm này, và các công ty sản xuất phim lại một lần nữa bắt đầu để kiếm một khoản tiền lớn.

Mình thật ra dịch rất kém, có gì sai sót mong bạn bỏ qua nhé!!!
