Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of light and darkness is one of the central ideas of the Symbolist movement, since this is a movement of contrasts. It encompasses the major themes of Symbolism, such as good and evil, beauty and ugliness, the visible and the invisible, and the divine and the earthly. This volume brings together a range of studies in order to understand the notion of light and darkness and a variety of its Symbolist interpretations.

Download or read book Jeering Dreamers written by John Anzalone and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-04-17 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The re-emergence in recent years of Villiers de l'Isle-Adam as a key figure in fin de siècle literature can be attributed in large part to the intense interest his prescient l'Eve future (1886) has generated among scholars. In effect, the novel confronts with breathtaking focus central taboos and ambivalences about the decadent period. It posits an inescapable, mechanistic linkage between desire and technology; it suggests the constructed nature of gender; it casts woman down so as to exalt her, even as it intimates the arbitrariness and fragility of the empowerment prerogatives implicit in such an operation. It is this mine for the study of fin de siècle mentalities that the present volume explores. Begun at the 1992 NCFS colloquium at Binghamton University as a collective project of the Friends of Villiers, Jeering Dreamers brings together 13 essays by Villiers scholars from both sides of the Atlantic. Their work promises, in the words of the eminent Villièrien Alan Raitt, to 'Éclairer l'Eve future d'un jour nouveau-ou, plus exactement, de plusieurs jours nouveaux.

Download or read book Allegory Old and New written by M. Kronegger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing allegory into the light from the neglect into which it fell means focusing on the wondrous heights of the human spirit in its significance for culture. Contemporary philosophies and literary theories, which give pre-eminence to primary linguistics forms (symbol and metaphor), seem to favor just that which makes intelligible communication possible. But they fall short in accounting for the deepest subliminal founts that prompt the mind to exalt in beauty, virtue, transcending aspiration. The present, rich collection shows how allegory, incorporating the soaring of the spirit, offers highlights for culture, with its fluctuations and transformation. This collective effort, rich in ideas and intuitions and covering a vast range of cultural manifestations, is a pioneering work, retrieving the vision of the exalted human spirit, bringing together literature, theatre, music and painting in a variety of revealing perspectives. The authors include: M. Kronegger, Ch. Raffini, J. Smith, J.B. Williamson, H. Ross, M.F. Wagner, F. Divorne, L. Oppenheim, D.K. Heckerl, N. Campi de Castro, P. Saurez Pascual, M. Alfaro Amieiro, H. Fletcher Thompson, R.J. Wilson III, and A. Stensaas. For specialists, students and workers in philosophy, comparative literature, aesthetic phenomenologists and historians of art.

Download or read book Chaos written by Megan Derr and published by Less Than Three Press, LLC. This book was released on with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Neuf dieux gouvernaient jadis le monde, jusqu'à ce qu'une ultime trahison ne les mène à leur perte. Depuis, le monde se meurt et seul le retour des Dieux disparus pourra le sauver. Isolée du monde depuis neuf cents ans, la Schatten est un pays d'ombres et de mystères. Le pouvoir de Teufel, l'Ombre du Licht déchu, maintient les étrangers à l'écart, et ses dangereuses Sentinelles empêchent les gens du pays de s'en échapper. Leur seul espoir de salut réside dans l'unique phrase d'une antique prophétie. Sasha se réveille sans aucun souvenir : il ignore où il est, comment il y est arrivé... et même qui il est. Tout ce dont il se rappelle, c'est son nom, et d'avoir été à la merci d'un monstre aux yeux violets. Tout ce qu'il possède sont les vêtements qu'il a sur le dos, les armes à sa ceinture, et un étrange anneau. Tout ce qu'il lui reste à faire, c'est explorer le pays de glace et de neige dans lequel il s'est perdu, dans l'espoir d'un jour trouver des réponses.
