Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Poetry in Its Relation to Painting and the Other Arts, Vol. 8 I have no intention of attempting any long disquisition on the relation of the arts to one another, and in particular on the relation of poetry to the other arts. Were we theorizing in the abstract, we might perhaps relate poetry most closely to music. But actually we shall have very much more to say of the relations between poetry and painting. Music and poetry are very near in their origin. Both alike find expression through the rhythms of sound. But as mature arts they have far less in common. Music, like Architecture, is independent of representation or the imitation of Nature. But neither poetry nor painting is in this condition. In either art it is possible to attenuate the matter so that almost nothing but the rhythmic element is left; to make a poem that relies almost entirely on sound, or a painting that relies almost entirely on arabesque. But the poet or painter attempts these things at his peril. Poetry and painting (sculpture also within its more limited range) are in a parallel condition so far as the relation of matter to form is concerned. Alike in painting and poetry, the rhythmic element, stronger perhaps and more explicit in poetry, evokes an emotional mood. We are wrought to a heightened pitch of sensibility; and in this state the subject-matter of painter or poet comes to us with a glow and force such as our senses never experience in the daily traffic of existence. In a perfect example of either art this subject-matter is fused with the form, so that we cannot dissolve them from one another. This was the meaning of Pater's saying that all the arts aspire towards the condition of music, where form and matter are one. Pater's sound doctrine on this point has been very generally accepted; but his statement of it implies a certain prejudice against poetry which has soaked into current opinion: so that at the present day there is among many artists and critics of art a curious horror of the intrusion into art of anything which might be suspected of being literature. I think this may derive from Pater's really astonishing assertion that 'story and sentiment' are the medium of poetry, and that these, not rhythm and imagery, correspond to line and colour in a painting. It has since been a common assumption that painting is in the same condition as music, and that poetry is in a different category. This, I believe, is a fundamental error.

Download or read book The English Mannerist Poets and the Visual Arts written by L. E. Semler and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this study, L.E. Semler begins with a comprehensive, historical definition of Mannerism in visual arts from which he derives four key terms that constitute the nucleus of the aesthetic: technical precision, elegance, grazia, and the difficulta:facilita formula. These principles - interwoven with one another and with maniera - are derived from visual arts but are specifically designed to be transferable to any medium. The rest of the book situates the English poets in relation to the visual arts - including painting, limning, gold- and silversmithery, architecture, and garden design - and discusses their verse in relation to the key Mannerist principles.
Download or read book The Art of Picturing in Early Modern English Literature written by Camilla Caporicci and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-04 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by an international group of highly regarded scholars and rooted in the field of intermedial approaches to literary studies, this volume explores the complex aesthetic process of "picturing" in early modern English literature. The essays in this volume offer a comprehensive and varied picture of the relationship between visual and verbal in the early modern period, while also contributing to the understanding of the literary context in which Shakespeare wrote. Using different methodological approaches and taking into account a great variety of texts, including Elizabethan sonnet sequences, metaphysical poetry, famous as well as anonymous plays, and court masques, the book opens new perspectives on the literary modes of "picturing" and on the relationship between this creative act and the tense artistic, religious and political background of early modern Europe. The first section explores different modes of looking at works of art and their relation with technological innovations and religious controversies, while the chapters in the second part highlight the multifaceted connections between European visual arts and English literary production. The third section explores the functions performed by portraits on the page and the stage, delving into the complex question of the relationship between visual and verbal representation. Finally, the chapters in the fourth section re-appraise early modern reflections on the relationship between word and image and on their respective power in light of early-seventeenth-century visual culture, with particular reference to the masque genre.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge Companion to Literature and Art explores the links between literature and visual art from classical ekphrasis through to contemporary experimental forms. The collection’s engagement with diverse literary and cultural artifacts offers a comprehensive survey of the vibrant interrelationships that currently inform literary studies and the arts. Featuring four sections, the first part provides an overview of theoretical approaches to art and literature from philosophy and aesthetics through to cognitive neuroscience. Part two examines one of the most important intersections between text and image: the workings of ekphrasis across poetry, fiction, drama, comics, life and travel writing, and architectural treatises. Parts three and four consider intermedial crossings from antiquity to the present. The contributors examine the rich intermedial experiments that range from manuscript studies to infographics in graphic narratives, illuminating the vibrant ways in which texts have intersected with illustration, music, dance, architecture, painting, photography, media installations, and television. Throughout this dynamic collection of 37 chapters, the contributors evolve existing critical debates in innovative new directions. The volume will be a critical resource for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, as well as specialist scholars working in literary studies, philosophy of art, text and image studies, and visual culture.

Book excerpt: This study addresses itself to the formal (in the topological sense) aspect of literature and literary words, and concludes that if logos (discursive langauge) and mythos (literary language) are indeed contiguous complementary forms, they are then essentially no different from those forms with which the painter or sculptor deals in the formation of his art object.

Download or read book Reading Cy Twombly written by Mary Jacobus and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book on the central importance of literary sources in the paintings of Cy Twombly Many of Cy Twombly's paintings and drawings include handwritten words and phrases—naming or quoting poets ranging from Sappho, Homer, and Virgil to Mallarmé, Rilke, and Cavafy. Enigmatic and sometimes hard to decipher, these inscriptions are a distinctive feature of his work. Reading Cy Twombly poses both literary and art historical questions. How does poetic reference in largely abstract works affect their interpretation? Reading Cy Twombly is the first book to focus specifically on the artist’s use of poetry. Twombly’s library formed an extension of his studio and he sometimes painted with a book open in front of him. Drawing on original research in an archive that includes his paint-stained and annotated books, Mary Jacobus’s account—richly illustrated with more than 125 color and black-and-white images—unlocks an important aspect of Twombly’s practice. Jacobus shows that poetry was an indispensable source of reference throughout Twombly’s career; as he said, he "never really separated painting and literature." Among much else, she explores the influence of Ezra Pound and Charles Olson; Twombly’s fondness for Greek pastoral poetry and Virgil’s Eclogues; the inspiration of the Iliad and Ovid’s Metamorphoses; and Twombly’s love of Keats and his collaboration with Octavio Paz. Twombly’s art reveals both his distinctive relationship to poetry and his use of quotation to solve formal problems. A modern painter, he belongs in a critical tradition that goes back, by way of Roland Barthes, to Baudelaire. Reading Cy Twombly opens up fascinating new readings of some of the most important paintings and drawings of the twentieth century.
