Download or read book Images in Mind written by Deborah Steiner and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In archaic and classical Greece, statues played a constant role in people's religious, political, economic, aesthetic, and mental lives. Evidence of many kinds demonstrates that ancient Greeks thought about--and interacted with--statues in ways very different from our own. This book recovers ancient thinking about statues by approaching them through contemporary literary sources. It not only shows that ancient viewers conceived of images as more operative than aesthetic, but additionally reveals how poets and philosophers found in sculpture a practice ''good to think with.'' Deborah Tarn Steiner considers how Greek authors used images to ponder the relation of a copy to an original and of external appearance to inner reality. For these writers, a sculpture could straddle life and death, encode desire, or occasion reflection on their own act of producing a text. Many of the same sources also reveal how thinking about statues was reflected in the objects' everyday treatment. Viewing representations of gods and heroes as vessels hosting a living force, worshippers ritually washed, clothed, and fed them in order to elicit the numinous presence within. By reading the plastic and verbal sources together, this book offers new insights into classical texts while illuminating the practices surrounding the design, manufacture, and deployment of ancient images. Its argument that images are properly objects of cultural and social--rather than purely aesthetic--study will attract art historians, cultural historians, and anthropologists, as well as classicists.

Download or read book Slightly Fissured Statues written by George Rizescu and published by Vasile Poenaru. This book was released on with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The satirical novel Slightly Fissured Statues by Romanian writerGeorge Rizescu is an amazing book that unveils the inner political life of the Parliament in Bucharest an reveals truths that are difficult to imagine about party activities, manipulations and irresponsible acts. This is what literary critic Aureliu Goci tells us about this captivating book: Narrative Performance and Excellence of Fun Mr. George Rizescu’s comic work is a conscious way of comic sources reevaluation, in modern and postmodern forms. His latest two books, “Short Treatise on Bollocksology” and “Slightly Fissured Statues,” represent his complete and complex textual contribution to deciphering and exploring the humorous formulas produced by an increasingly ridiculous and comic society, as—it seems—it loses its sense of humor at the level of consciousness. This last sense is based on degradation of the other senses in the endowment of the human being. The humor of exaggerated communication that George Rizescu’s prose introduces is one of the most appropriate and synchronous scriptural expressions in the spirit of the contemporary civilization. Surely, earlier, we were aware of the Hamletian “world rocking” at the beginning of the millennium, world still under the terror of a glorious, apocalyptic end that was supposed to crown festively the past millennium and the high-profile year 2000, of course long-awaited for 2000 years (according to some, awaited even for a longer time). The sober, methodical, academic attitude of the author—who became an important comic writer of our time—could only lead to a representative creation of contemporary times and the discovery of a first-class and high significance writer at a time when the image is still trying to detract the text… and, behold, it can’t! Mr. George Rizescu, profound comic contemporary author, created a fully personalized expressive territoriality, supported by a consistent work in the true sense of the word. Through his writing, he can’t be snatched from the center of the contemporary comic universe because he remains tucked into the place by the heavy anchors represented by his novels, starting with the “Salvache1…” cycle and continuing with the “Treatise on Bollocksology” and “Slightly Fissured Statues.” The author, of course, a chronicler of his time, represents for us, in this last book a fabulous “history” of events and characters that mark a period in a determined space. “History” is a nineteenth century concept that on the one hand records and defines documentarily, chronologically and coherently time and space, and—on the other hand, it’s an imaginary construction, an invented but credible story, a fictional subtext with diffuse didactic motivations and moral ends. “History” is recorded and explained in order to be a model, either positive or negative, so as not to repeat itself. [...] We can say that Mr. George Rizescu performs, in the unitary and coherent series of his novels, a post-revolutionary epic of the new Romanian capitalism. Aureliu Goci
