Book Le Champ litt  raire 1860 1900

Download or read book Le Champ litt raire 1860 1900 written by Michael Pakenham and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 1996 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les textes qui constituent les vingt-neuf chapitres de ce volume ont été écrits en hommage à Michael Pakenham. Il s'agissait d'exprimer en peu de mots la diversité et la richesse des travaux de Michael Pakenham, de bien délimiter cette période de l'histoire littéraire française à la connaissance de laquelle ils ont tant contribué et, en même temps, d'ouvrir le plus d'horizons possibles. Le 'champ littéraire, 1860-1900', nous semblait le mieux signaler ce lieu où l'indécis au précis se joint. De plus, ce titre avait l'avantage de profiter -- sans scrupules d'ailleurs -- d'un terme que les travaux de Pierre Bourdieu ont mis en valeur, sans donner de consignes trop contraignantes quant à la manière de s'en servir. La première partie du volume s'ouvre sur des questions d'ordre théorique soulevées dans Les Règles de l'art. Genèse et structure du champ littéraire, (1992), mais, par la suite, s'élargit, prend du champ justement, pour s'aventurer dans des domaines où les recherches et l'enseignement de notre collègue ont tant porté le thème parisien, les rapports littérature-peinture, les poètes connus et moins connus, et enfin les chemins les plus divers de la littérature.

Book Radical Art and the Formation of the Avant Garde

Download or read book Radical Art and the Formation of the Avant Garde written by David Cottington and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2022-03-08 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An authoritative re-definition of the social, cultural and visual history of the emergence of the “avant-garde” in Paris and London Over the past fifty years, the term "avant-garde" has come to shape discussions of European culture and modernity, ubiquitously taken for granted but rarely defined. This ground-breaking book develops an original and searching methodology that fundamentally reconfigures the social, cultural, and visual context of the emergence of the artistic avant-garde in Paris and London before 1915, bringing the material history of its formation into clearer and more detailed focus than ever before. Drawing on a wealth of disciplinary evidence, from socio-economics to histories of sexuality, bohemia, consumerism, politics, and popular culture, David Cottington explores the different models of cultural collectivity in, and presumed hierarchies between, these two focal cities, while identifying points of ideological influence and difference between them. He reveals the avant-garde to be at once complicit with, resistant to, and a product of the modernizing forces of professionalization, challenging the conventional wisdom on this moment of cultural formation and offering the means to reset the terms of avant-garde studies.

  • Author : Ruth E. Iskin
  • Publisher : Dartmouth College Press

  • ISBN : 1611686172

Download or read book The Poster written by Ruth E. Iskin and published by Dartmouth College Press. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Poster: Art, Advertising, Design, and Collecting, 1860sÐ1900s is a cultural history that situates the poster at the crossroads of art, design, advertising, and collecting. Though international in scope, the book focuses especially on France and England. Ruth E. Iskin argues that the avant-garde poster and the original art print played an important role in the development of a modernist language of art in the 1890s, as well as in the adaptation of art to an era of mass media. She moreover contends that this new form of visual communication fundamentally redefined relations between word and image: poster designers embedded words within the graphic, rather than using images to illustrate a text. Posters had to function as effective advertising in the hectic environment of the urban street. Even though initially commissioned as advertisements, they were soon coveted by collectors. Iskin introduces readers to the late nineteenth-century ÒiconophileÓÑa new type of collector/curator/archivist who discovered in poster collecting an ephemeral archaeology of modernity. Bridging the separation between the fields of art, design, advertising, and collecting, IskinÕs insightful study proposes that the poster played a constitutive role in the modern culture of spectacle. This stunningly illustrated book will appeal to art historians and students of visual culture, as well as social and cultural history, media, design, and advertising.

  • Publisher : Penn State Press
  • Release : 2017-07-07
  • ISBN : 0271079193
  • Pages : 366 pages

Download or read book Genius Envy written by Adrianna M. Paliyenko and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2017-07-07 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Genius Envy, Adrianna M. Paliyenko uncovers a forgotten history: the multiplicity and diversity of nineteenth-century French women’s poetic voices. Conservative critics of the time attributed the phenomenon of genius to masculinity and dismissed the work of female authors as “feminine literature.” Despite the efforts of leading thinkers, critics, and literary historians to erase women from the pages of literary history, Paliyenko shows how these female poets invigorated the debate about the origins of genius and garnered considerable recognition in their time for their creativity and bold aesthetic ideas. This fresh account of French women poets’ contributions to literature probes the history of their critical reception. The result is an encounter with the texts of celebrated writers such as Marceline Desbordes-Valmore, Anaïs Ségalas, Malvina Blanchecotte, Louisa Siefert, and Louise Ackermann. Glimpses at the different stages of each poet’s career show that these women explicitly challenged the notion of genius as gender specific, thus advocating for their rightful place in the canon. A prodigious contribution to studies of nineteenth-century French poetry, Paliyenko’s book reexamines the reception of poetry by women within and beyond its original context. This balanced and comprehensive treatment of their work uncovers the multiple ways in which women poets sought to define their place in history.
