Excerpt from A Century of Service, 1815-1915 It is easy to believe that the first Silas Peirce had his imagination and his desire to see the world stimulated by the travellers' tales that he heard about the fireplace in his father's inn. These trav ellers doubtless gave him an idea of what was going on in the great world outside the little village, so when he was fifteen years old he left home and came to Boston to seek his fortune.

"Rival Sisters, Art and Music at the Birth of Modernism, 1815?915 "

Introducing the concept of music and painting as 'rival sisters' during the nineteenth century, this interdisciplinary collection explores the productive exchange-from rivalry to inspiration to collaboration-between the two media in the age of Romanticism and Modernism. The volume traces the relationship between art and music, from the opposing claims for superiority of the early nineteenth century, to the emergence of the concept of synesthesia around 1900. This collection puts forward a more complex history of the relationship between art and music than has been described in earlier works, including an intermixing of models and distinctions between approaches to them. Individual essays from art history, musicology, and literature examine the growing influence of art upon music, and vice versa, in the works of Berlioz, Courbet, Manet, Fantin-Latour, Rodin, Debussy, and the Pre-Raphaelites, among other artists.
