Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Offering a great wealth of photographic material, "An Iconography of Western Religions" by Pietro Gaietto reconstructs the origins and iconographic evolution of Western religious images. He has researched the origins and evolution of Paleolithic art which, Gaietto affirms, is the foundation from which Western religious images have evolved.

The thrust of the book concerns three-dimensional art and the evolution of Western religions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the novels and stories. The cosmicomical tales, with their focus on science, are seen as crucial to the development of the symbolic mindscapes that made Calvino a major international writer. He died before arriving at any satisfactory solution to the problems of relating the 'I' to the 'not-I', but Hume derives from his later works a philosophy based on the creation of likenesses, of internal microcosms that permit us to mirror the macrocosm. These interior.

Download or read book Postmodern Artistry in Medievalist Fiction written by Earl R. Anderson and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2018-06-09 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on modern-day fiction set in the Middle Ages or that incorporates medieval elements, this study examines storytelling components and rhetorical tropes in more than 60 works in five languages by more than 40 authors. Medievalist fiction got its "postmodern" start with such authors as Calvino, Fuentes, Carpentier and Eco. Its momentum increased since the 1990s with writers whose work has received less critical attention, like Laura Esquivel, Tariq Ali, Matthew Pearl, Matilde Asensi, Ildefonso Falcones, Andrew Davison, Bernard Cornwell, Donnal Woolfolk Cross, Ariana Franklin, Nicole Griffith, Levi Grossman, Conn Iggulden, Edward Rutherfurd, Javier Sierra, Alan Moore and Brenda Vantrease. The author explores a wide range of "medievalizing" tropes, discusses the negative responses of postmodernism and posits four "hard problems" in medievalist fiction.

Book excerpt: «Potrei dimostrare non come gli uomini pensano nei miti, ma come i miti operano nelle menti degli uomini senza che loro siano informati di questo fatto». Questa frase di Claude Lévi-Strauss è la perfetta sintesi dell’analisi sviluppata in questo libro. Ma oltre a questa peculiarità del mito, viene qui tentata la riunione delle menti libere e degli artisti che, secondo l’autore, sono fra coloro in grado di contrastare il potere dei miti. Una chiamata a raccolta concreta, perché in appendice al volume ci sono proposte operative a cui è possibile partecipare, se ci si è convinti - leggendo il libro - dell’importanza di esserci.

Download or read book Misteri Archeologici nell area dei Castelli Romani written by Daniele Cataldi and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-01-03 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questo libro è il risultato di quattro anni di intensi studi portati avanti, assieme ad altri ricercatori, nell'area dei Castelli Romani (Parco Regionale). Le tracce di antichissime civiltà testimoniano come l'area fosse popolata da uomini progrediti, in grado di scavare profondi tunnel sotterranei con tecniche che oggi non conosciamo e di conoscere e sfruttare l'astronomia più di quanto oggi saremmo in grado di fare con dei sistemi rudimentali. Cosa nasconde realmente questa immensa area situata alle porte di Roma? Probabilmente contatti ancestrali con divinità non umane e opere megalitiche costruite da popoli oggi estinti di cui non sappiamo nulla. La storia deve essere riscritta! Disponibile anche in formato elettronico.

Download or read book Dynamics of Learning in Neanderthals and Modern Humans Volume 2 written by Takeru Akazawa and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2014-01-27 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the second of two volumes of proceedings from the International Conference on the Replacement of Neanderthals by Modern Humans, which took place in Tokyo in November 2012. This second volume reports, in four major sections, findings by cultural anthropologists, physical anthropologists, engineering scientists and neurophysiologists, integrated in multidisciplinary fashion to solidify the overall understanding of the mechanics of replacement from cognitive and physical perspectives. Part 1 provides examinations of replacement related questions from various perspectives in cognition and psychology. Part 2, consisting of studies rooted in body science and genetics, provides detailed findings which fill in the broader frame of the replacement phenomenon. Part 3 presents a collection of papers whose findings about fossil crania and brain morphology shed direct light on immediate questions regarding replacement. Part 4 provides illuminations similar to those in part 3, but arising from the analytical empowerment afforded by neuroscience. The collection of 26 papers in this volume makes available to readers both broad and narrow insights on the mechanisms of the replacement/assimilation of Neanderthals by modern humans and at the same time provides a model of new-paradigm multidisciplinary collaboration on a complex problem.

Download or read book Nella terra dei sogni proibiti written by Antonio Il Grande and published by Meligrana Giuseppe Editore. This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 139 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: George ed Elisa si conoscono grazie a una terribile coincidenza. In Campania, nel 1943. Elisa è bellissima e George è un soldato. Si incontrano dopo lo sbarco degli inglesi sulle coste italiane, in una mattinata di mercato e grande trambusto. Lui non è coraggioso ma per lei diventa il più temerario degli eroi, diventa il suo eroe. Uccide per salvarla da un destino forse peggiore della morte, salva il suo corpo e la sua anima. George però è un animo inquieto, in perenne fuga, da se stesso in primis, dal suo paese, dalla guerra, da chi lo cerca e lo ama, dal destino, dalla vita più che dalla morte. La storia di George ed Elisa si intreccia con quella di Charlie, compagno di guerra di George che, con assoluta dedizione, nonostante la sregolatezza che lo contraddistingue, si consacra alla ricerca dell’amico “scomparso”. Una luna candida e immobile vigila sui protagonisti del romanzo, li guida, indica loro la strada da seguire, nonostante l’agire umano sia crudele e nefasto. Antonio Il Grande, giovanissimo autore, sorprende ed affascina con il suo esordio letterario, breve e intenso, passionale e cruento.
