Book excerpt: Although Andrea del Castagno (1419-1457) was one of the most original painters of fifteenth-century Florence, his art was largely neglected for five centuries. Only after his works were exhibited in Florence in 1954 alongside those of Masaccio, Uccello, and Piero della Francesca under the title "Quattro Maestri del Primo Rinascimento" was their outstanding quality rediscovered. In his relatively short life, Castagno completed more than twenty works, most of them frescoes. They bear witness to his masterful composition, his highly individual choice of color, and his excellent draftsmanship. It was perhaps for his draftsmanship that Castagno was most renowned during his lifetime, and this reputation was dramatically reasserted by the exhibition "The Great Age of Fresco: Giotto to Pontormo," which toured nine countries in the Americas and Europe from 1968-1970 and attracted a million visitors. In this comprehensive study Marita Horster gives an account of the artist's life and examines his works in detail. She provides transcriptions of documents relating to Castagno's life and work, and quotes Vasari's biography in full, in the original Italian. She also lists painters connected with Castagno and describes his influence on pupils, contemporaries, and followers. A complete critical catalog, including lost works and rejected attributions, follows her introductory essay. All of the extant works are illustrated, and the striking use of details brings out the grace and subtlety of Castagno's lines. Some works mistakenly attributed to Castagno are also reproduced, along with comparative works by other artists. The first full study of Castagno to appear in English, this lavishly illustrated volume will delight anyone interested in Italian or Renaissance art. -- Inside jacket flaps.

This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a semiotic study of the re-elaboration of Christian narratives and values in a corpus of Italian novels published after the Second Vatican Council (1960s). It tackles the complex set of ideas expressed by Italian writers about the biblical narration of human origins and traditional religious language and ritual, the perceived clash between the immanent and transcendent nature and role of the Church, and the problematic notion of sanctity emerging from contemporary narrative.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reveals how the largest Sun Temple in the world, built according to Hermetic principles, is located at one of Christianity’s holiest sites: the Vatican • Shows how famous Renaissance philosophers and scientists called for a Hermetic reformation of Christianity by building a magical Temple of the Sun in Rome • Explains how the Vatican architect Bernini designed St. Peter’s Square to reflect heliocentric and Hermetic principles • Reveals how the design was masterminded by Bernini, Jesuit scholars, the mystical Queen Christine of Sweden, and several popes In 16th century Italy, in the midst of the Renaissance, two powerful movements took hold. The first, the Hermetic Movement, was inspired by an ancient set of books housed in the library of Cosimo de’ Medici and written by the Egyptian sage Hermes Trismegistus. The movement expounded the return of the “true religion of the world” based on a form of natural magic that could draw down the powers of the heavens and incorporate them into statues and physical structures. The other movement, the Heliocentric Movement launched by Copernicus, was a direct challenge to the Vatican’s biblical interpretation of a geocentric world system. Declared a heresy by the Pope, those who promoted it risked the full force of the Inquisition. Exploring the meeting point of these two movements, authors Robert Bauval and Chiara Hohenzollern reveal how the most outspoken and famous philosophers, alchemists, and scientists of the Renaissance, such as Giordano Bruno and Marsilio Ficino, called for a Hermetic reformation of the Christian religion by building a magical utopic city, an architectural version of the heliocentric system. Using contemporary documents and the latest cutting-edge theses, the authors show that this Temple of the Sun was built in Rome, directly in front of the Vatican’s Basilica of St. Peter. They explain how the Vatican architect Bernini designed St. Peter’s Square to reflect the esoteric principles of the Hermetica and how the square is a detailed representation of the heliocentric system. Revealing the magical architectural plan masterminded by the Renaissance’s greatest minds, including Bernini, Jesuit scholars, Queen Christine of Sweden, and several popes, the authors expose the ultimate heresy of all time blessed by the Vatican itself.
