Download or read book Modernism beyond the Human written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-10-09 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the defining features of modernism lies in its far-reaching rethinking of the relation between the human and the non-human. In the present volume, this crucial aspect of modernism’s legacy is investigated from an authentically transnational perspective, taking an innovative stance on a diverse range of authors – from posthumanist classics such as Beckett and Woolf to Valentine de Saint-Point, Radoje Domanovic and Aldo Palazzeschi among others. On the one hand, this collection sheds new light on the modernist contribution to posthumanism, providing a valuable reference point for future studies on the topic. On the other, it offers a new take on the transnational dimension of modernism, highlighting unexplored convergences between modernist authors from several different national contexts.

Book excerpt: This book presents an original investigation of the relationship of a variety of authors (Varchi, Aretino, Foscolo, Wordsworth, Stendhal, Mann, Montale, Morante and others) with Buonarroti’s verse. Through close analysis of the texts, it shows why Michelangelo should hold a more noble position on Parnassus than that which historiography has hitherto granted him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Raccogliamo in questo omaggio a Nadia Boccara una serie di testi che i colleghi e amici dell’allora Facoltà di Lingue e dell’attuale Dipartimento di Scienze Umanistiche, del Turismo e della Comunicazione hanno fortemente voluto per celebrare gli intensi anni passati insieme e per donare una ennesima dimostrazione di stima, affetto e riconoscenza. Gli articoli qui raccolti sono incentrati non tanto sugli approfondimenti filosofici sui quali Nadia Boccara ha basato buona parte della sua carriera accademica, quanto quelli legati al secondo amore della nostra collega: quello cioè del viaggio e della scrittura di viaggio da intendersi come momento di scoperta dell’altro e del diverso, ma per converso, anche di conoscenza e approfondimento di sé. Storici, letterati, anglisti, francesisti, lusitanisti e quant’altri trovano infatti sul terreno comune delle esperienze di viaggio quel luogo immateriale di incontro e confronto che Nadia Boccara ha sempre frequentato.

Download or read book Italian Modern Art in the Age of Fascism written by Anthony White and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the work of several modern artists, including Fortunato Depero, Scipione, and Mario Radice, who were working in Italy during the time of Benito Mussolini’s rise and fall. It provides a new history of the relationship between modern art and fascism. The study begins from the premise that Italian artists belonging to avant-garde art movements, such as futurism, expressionism, and abstraction, could produce works that were perfectly amenable to the ideologies of Mussolini’s regime. A particular focus of the book is the precise relationship between ideas of history and modernity encountered in the art and politics of the time and how compatible these truly were.

Download or read book A City in Search of an Author written by Katia Pizzi and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2002-02-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poised between the Mediterranean and the Mitteleuropa, crossroads of civilizations and seat of vibrant cultural and literary life, Trieste is now acknowledged as enjoying unrivalled cultural status amongst Italian cities. This volume, the first comprehensive study of Triestine literature in English, originally reassesses TriesteÆs literary identity, paying particular attention to the period between 1918 and 1954 when local writing became intensely aware of its local specificity and some of its central motifs came prominently to the fore. TriesteÆs singular border identity, mirrored in a variegated literary output, emerges here as laden with complexities and ambiguities, such as the controversial notion of triestinita, the ambiguous relation with nationalism, specifically in its Fascist inflection, and the anxieties generated by repeated re-definitions of the areaÆs historical borders.
Download or read book Modernism Christianity and Apocalypse written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2014-10-30 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Modernism, Christianity and Apocalypse stages an encounter between the fields of ‘Modernism and Christianity’ and ‘Apocalypse Studies’. The modernist impulse to ‘make it new’, to transform and reform culture, is an incipiently apocalyptic one, poised between imaginative representations of an Old Era or civilization and the experimental promise of the New. Christianity figures in formative tension with the ‘new’, but its apocalyptic paradigms continued to impact modernist visions of cultural revitalization. In three sections tracing a rough chronology from the late nineteenth century fin de siècle, via interwar conflicts and the rise of ‘political religions’, to post-1945 anxieties such as the Bomb, this thematic is explored in nineteen far-ranging scholarly contributions, outlining a distinctive and fresh interdisciplinary field of study.
