Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Covering 30 years of groundbreaking work, spanning from 1976 to 2006, The Paintings of Ross Bleckneris the first major monograph on this important American artist, as well as the first publication devoted to his work since his 1995 retrospective at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. Beginning with an analysis of Bleckner's much-overlooked Constructivist and Post-Constructivist paintings of the 1970s, it continues with chapter-by-chapter studies of all the critically-acclaimed series, from the Stripe, Weather, Chandelierand Memorial(or AIDS) paintings of the early to mid-1980s to the Specific and Anonymous, Inheritance, Proteinand Meditationpaintings of the new millennium. In addition to an intensive analysis of each of the artist's completed works, the book contains 250 black-and-white illustrations, 134 color plates of Bleckner's most seminal works, a comprehensive history of his exhibitions and a complete bibliography. In his monumental text study, author Richard Milazzo writes, "Bleckner's work has always been interested in bringing abstract painting closer to the realities of the external world, while endeavoring to plumb the depths of the subliminal realm of the psyche. Much lauded for the work he has done for ACRIA, the American Community Research Initiative on AIDS, and as an outspoken advocate of the fight against the disease since the late 1980s, his paintings are symbolic expressions of a larger humanity, and, as such, also comprise formal as well as social values."

Book excerpt: “My poor, sweet beast. How broken we are apart.” William Ford just wants his life back. He was a normal guy who took a job working as a glorified gofer at a lab, and now he is a freak who turns into an even bigger freak when he can’t control himself. Slowly, he is slipping away until he fears only the beast inside him will remain. That is when he meets Lucian Dubois. The Council leader helps William by bringing him to the strongest Fae in existence, the Bruce. Only the Bruce wants William as his champion while William wants his freedom—freedom from the Caduceus, freedom from the Fabled, and freedom from the beast within. A chance encounter with a woman will change everything he finds important because this isn’t their first meeting or their first life. Kairi Blake is living a lie. She lives in a town where no one is real, goes to a college that is a sham, and gets monthly injections that keep the farce in place. Her primary problem is that she can’t remember anything but the lie. Help from a friend brings back the barest of memories, but it’s enough to give her direction to the only family she has. Together Kairi and William go on the run from not only the enemy but their supposed allies as well to help reunite Kairi with her past. Little did they know that their pasts are so deeply intertwined, and only together can they save each other.
Download or read book The Death of the Gods written by Dmitry Merezhkovsky and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2022-01-11 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Death of the Gods (1895) is a novel by Dmitriy Merezhkovsky. Having turned from his work in poetry to a new, spiritually charged interest in fiction, Merezhkovsky sought to develop his theory of the Third Testament, an apocalyptic vision of Christianity’s fulfillment in twentieth century humanity. The Death of the Gods the first work in the trilogy, is followed by Resurrection of the Gods (1900) and Peter and Alexis (1904). Well received internationally, The Christ and Antichrist Trilogy was largely ignored by Russian critics at the time of its publication, but has since been recognized as his most original and vital literary work. “‘Julian!’ a voice cried; ‘Julian, Julian! Where in the world is he? Eutropius is looking for you to go to church with him.’ The boy shivered, and nimbly hid his handiwork inside the altar of Pan. He smoothed his hair, shook his clothes, and when he came out of the grotto had resumed an expression of impenetrable Christian hypocrisy.” In The Death of the Gods, Emperor Julian, recognizing the increasing popularity of Christianity among the Roman people, makes a final attempt to plant the Olympian Gods at the center of spiritual life. Opposed to the asceticism of early Christians, Julian views the emerging religion as a sacrifice of worldly existence and human connection in favor of a metaphysical ideal. Despite his idealism, the inexorable current of history dooms him from the beginning. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Dmitriy Merezhkovsky’s The Death of the Gods is a classic of Russian literature reimagined for modern readers.

Download or read book Dionysus Christ and the Death of God Volume 1 written by Giuseppe Fornari and published by MSU Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This magisterial reflection on the history and destiny of the West compares Greco-Roman civilization and the Judeo-Christian tradition in order to understand what both unites and divides them. Mediation, understood as a collective, symbolic experience, gives society unity and meaning, putting human beings in contact with a universal object known as the world or reality. But unity has a price: the very force that enables peaceful coexistence also makes us prone to conflict. As a result, in order to find a common point of convergence—of at-one-ment—someone must be sacrificed. Sacrifice, then, is the historical pillar of mediation. It was endorsed in a cosmic-religious sense in antiquity and rejected for ethical reasons in modernity, where the Judeo-Christian tradition plays an intermediate role in condemning sacrificial violence as such, while accepting sacrifice as a voluntary act offered to save other human beings. Today, as we face the collapse of all shared mediations, this intermediating solution offers a way out of our moral and cultural plight.

Book excerpt: Modern society is beginning to re-examine its whole relationship with animals and the natural world. Until recently issues such as animal welfare and environmental protection were considered the domain of small, idealistic minorities. Now, these issues attract vast numbers of articulate supporters who collectively exercise considerable political muscle. Animals, both wild and domestic, form the primary focus of concern in this often acrimonious debate. Yet why do animals evoke such strong and contradictory emotions in people - and do our western attitudes have anything in common with those of other societies and cultures? Bringing together a range of contributions from distinguished experts in the field, Animals and Society explores the importance of animals in society from social, historical and cross-cultural perspectives.
