Download or read book Texts from the Querelle 1521 1615 written by Pamela J. Benson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Misogyny and its opposite, philogyny, have been perennial topics in Western literature from its earliest days to the present day, but only at certain historic periods have pro-woman authors challenged fundamental negative assumptions about women by engaging in formal debate with misogynists and juxtaposing these two attitudes toward women in pairs or series of texts devoted exclusively to discussing womankind. This dialectic of attack on and defence of the female sex, known as the querelle des femmes (debate about women), was especially popular among authors and readers during the sixteenth and earlier seventeenth centuries in England. At least 36 texts exclusively devoted to attacking and/or defending women were published in the hundred years between 1540 and 1640. The works included in these two volumes exemplify the content and the methods of debate in England during those two centuries. Volume one includes texts from 1521 through to 1615.

Download or read book La Renaissance europ enne written by Peter Burke and published by Média Diffusion. This book was released on 2015-04-25T00:00:00+02:00 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Burke n'est pas un peintre de la Renaissance. Et pourtant son est celui d'un artiste. Portrait de la Renaissance en mouvement. Au loin, en arrière-plan, les frontières de l'islam qui lui aussi connaît un réveil ; un peu plus loin, ce qui reste de Byzance qui jouera un rôle capital dans la transmission de l'Antique et, en ligne de fuite, les vieux inspirateurs Platon, Cicéron et Virgile. Au second plan, les plus jeunes, parmi lesquels Pétrarque, Boccace et Giotto. Ils sont dans les décors urbains – Avignon, Florence, plus tard viendront les villes des Flandres, celle de France et d'Angleterre – mais aussi dans la nature regorgeant de formes, de sons et de couleurs. Du tableau, les limites sont vastes, de l'Europe du Nord aux pays slaves, et sa lumière touche chaque objet animé par une vie renaissante devenue règle générale. Au premier plan, bien sûr, le printemps de l'Italie avec les deux sœurs en gloire, Rome et Florence. La Renaissance invente l'Europe ou un rêve d'Europe. Elle est toujours devant nous par ce qui fait d'elle un dynamisme incessant d'imitation et de création.
