Los emiratos turcos desarrollaron una nueva síntesis estilística de las tradiciones centro-asiática y selyúcida con el legado de las civilizaciones griega, romana y bizantina. Los esquemas arquitectónicos de las mezquitas, los hammam, hospitales, madrasas, mausoleos y grandes complejos religiosos, las columnas y cúpulas, la decoración floral y caligráfica, la cerámica y la iluminación atestiguan la riqueza de estilos. El florecimiento cultural y artístico que acompañó al surgimiento del Imperio Otomano estuvo profundamente marcado por la herencia de los Emiratos. Ocho recorridos le invitan a descubrir 61 museos, monumentos y yacimientos en Milas, Selçuk, Manisa, Bursa, Iznik, Karacabey, Çanakkale, Gelibolu y Edirne, entre otras localidades.

Download or read book Heaven Hell and Everything in Between written by Ananda Cohen Suarez and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2016-05-24 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the vivid, often apocalyptic church murals of Peru from the early colonial period through the nineteenth century, Heaven, Hell, and Everything in Between explores the sociopolitical situation represented by the artists who generated these murals for rural parishes. Arguing that the murals were embedded in complex networks of trade, commerce, and the exchange of ideas between the Andes and Europe, Ananda Cohen-Aponte also considers the ways in which artists and viewers worked through difficult questions of envisioning sacredness. This study brings to light the fact that, unlike the murals of New Spain, the murals of the Andes possess few direct visual connections to a pre-Columbian painting tradition; the Incas’ preference for abstracted motifs created a problem for visually translating Catholic doctrine to indigenous congregations, as the Spaniards were unable to read Inca visual culture. Nevertheless, as Cohen Suarez demonstrates, colonial murals of the Andes can be seen as a reformulation of a long-standing artistic practice of adorning architectural spaces with images that command power and contemplation. Drawing on extensive secondary and archival sources, including account books from the churches, as well as on colonial Spanish texts, Cohen Suarez urges us to see the murals not merely as decoration or as tools of missionaries but as visual archives of the complex negotiations among empire, communities, and individuals.

Download or read book Sculpture Collections in Early Modern Spain written by Kelley Helmstutler Di Dio and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-01 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, there has been a surge of Anglophone scholarship regarding Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, which has led to a reframing of the discourses around Spanish culture of this period. Despite this new interest-in which painting, in particular, has been singled out for treatment-a comprehensive study of sculpture collections and the status of sculpture in Spain has yet to be produced. Sculpture Collections in Early Modern Spain is the first book to assess the phenomenon of sculpture collecting and in doing so, it alters the previously held notion that Spanish society placed little value in this art form. Di Dio and Coppel reveal that, due to the problems and expense of their transport from Italy, sculptures were in fact status symbols in the culture. Thus they were an important component of the collections formed by the royal family, cultivated noble collectors, humanists, and artists who had pretensions of high status. This book is especially useful to specialists for its discussion of the typologies of collections and objects, and of the mechanics of state gifts, transport, and collection display in this period. An appendix presents extensive archival documentation, most of which has never before been published. The authors have uncovered hundreds of new documents about sculpture in Spain; and new documentary evidence allows them to propose several new identifications and attributions. Firmly grounded in extensive archival research, Sculpture Collections in Early Modern Spain redefines the socio-political and art historical importance of sculpture in early modern Spain. Most importantly, it entirely transforms our knowledge regarding the presence of sculpture in a wide range of Spanish collections of the period, which until now has been erroneously characterized as close to non-existent.

Download or read book Ideology Politics and Demands in Spanish Language Literature and Film written by Teresa Fernandez Ulloa and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 399 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book comprises various chapters which explore a variety of topics related to the manner in which ideological and epistemological changes in the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries shaped the Spanish language, literature, and film, among other forms of expression, in both Spain and Latin America, and how these media served the purpose of spreading ideas and demands. There are articles on ideological representations of linguistic differences and sameness; linguistic changes associated with loan words and the ideas they bring in modifying our communicative landscape; the role of the Catholic religion on the construction of our dictionary; analysis of some political discourses, ideologies and social imaginaries; new visions of old literature (a return to the parody in the Middle Ages to analyze its moderness) and postmodern narrative; discussions on contemporary Spanish poetry and Central American literature; a new return to the liberation philosophy by analyzing Ellacuría´s work; and several studies about concepts such as capitalism, patriarchy, identity, masculinity, homosexuality, globalization, and the Resistence in several forms of expression.
Download or read book Reactive scattering for H H2 and H H2 and its isotopologues written by Dequan Wang and published by Logos Verlag Berlin GmbH. This book was released on 2016-07-15 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The reactive scattering for H- + H2 and H+ + H2 and its isotopologues were investigated using different methods. The studies aimed at providing insights into elementary reactions, and go beyond these to more complexchemical reactions. By comparison of the reaction probabilities of H+ + H2 using adiabatic and non-adiabatic methods, it was found that, at low collision energies, the reaction preferentially occurs adiabatically, but at higher collision energies non-adiabatic effects should be taken into account. For H- + H2 and its isotopologues, we can see that, at low collision energies, the reaction probabilities and reaction cross section using SM-PES and AY-PES are very similar but different from PS-PES. The reaction cross sections investigated with quasi-classical trajectoriesare higher than those calculated with quantum wavepackets. For the collision H- and D- with HD, the main reaction path ways are different with the different collision energies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tradicionalmente propicia a la historia política, la diplomacia de la Monarquía ha suscitado en los últimos años un fecundo interés por parte de los historiadores del arte y de la sociedad de corte. Los agentes de la política exterior (gobernantes y virreyes, embajadores y cardenales) actuaron no sólo como intermediarios de los intereses artísticos de los reyes de España, sino también como protagonistas de un intenso coleccionismo personal que emulaba el modelo real. Los estudios sobre le arte y diplomacia vienen a demostrar que, junto a los creaodres de las obras, desempeñaron también un papel determinante los aficionados que las encargaron, coleccionaropn, vendieron e intercambiaron: desde su posición de riqueza y poder, se erigieron en directores del gusto y de las modas en el terreno artístico, y su intervención fue capital para la difusión o la cotización de determinadas escuelas y artistas
