Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questa raccolta di poesie e di racconti popolari anonimi in dialetto molisano tracciano il percorso di due storie che, pur diversificate, si compenetrano e si completano a vicenda: la storia individuale dell' autore e la storia collettiva della società di un paese del Sud. Le immagini di un mondo apparentemente immobile e arcaico si alternano alle vicende di una realtà storica complessa e tormentata, nel cui magma vecchio e nuovo si scontrano e si fondono. This collection of poems and anonymous folktales in the Molisan dialect traces the unfolding of two stories which, although distinct, interweave and complete each other: the author's individual story and the story of a town in the South of Italy. The images of an apparently immobile and archaic world alternate with the events of a complex and tormented historical reality, in whose magma the new and the old clash and fuse.

Download or read book The Work of Art written by Gérard Genette and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What art is--its very nature--is the subject of this book by one of the most distinguished continental theorists writing today. Informed by the aesthetics of Nelson Goodman and referring to a wide range of cultures, contexts, and media, The Work of Art seeks to discover, explain, and define how art exists and how it works. To this end, Gérard Genette explores the distinction between a work of art's immanence--its physical presence--and transcendence--the experience it induces. That experience may go far beyond the object itself.Genette situates art within the broad realm of human practices, extending from the fine arts of music, painting, sculpture, and literature to humbler but no less fertile fields such as haute couture and the culinary arts. His discussion touches on a rich array of examples and is bolstered by an extensive knowledge of the technology involved in producing and disseminating a work of art, regardless of whether that dissemination is by performance, reproduction, printing, or recording. Moving beyond examples, Genette proposes schemata for thinking about the different manifestations of a work of art. He also addresses the question of the artwork's duration and mutability.

Download or read book Enrico Corte Spectrospective Ediz italiana e inglese written by Enrico Corte and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enrico Corte (1963) vive e lavora a New York e Roma. Adotta fin dal suo esordio un ruolo antinomico rispetto alle modalità abituali del fare arte, scegliendo di mostrare &"ciò che non si vuol vedere&", il lato oscuro della creatività che spesso confina col suo opposto, ossia con l&'autodistruzione. Corte si colloca lontano sia dal gusto tipicamente italiano per la &"leggerezza&" sia dalla ricerca dello scandalo a tutti i costi, trovando invece inedite forme di bellezza plastica, fatali fascinazioni di fronte all&'Ignoto. Capovolgendo le regole stabilite del mercato dell&'arte, che vorrebbero l&'artista specializzato in un singolo &"segno&" riconoscibile nel tempo, Corte è intervenuto direttamente nel sociale tramite una moltiplicazione di stili, tecniche e soluzioni estetiche sufficienti per attrarre l&'attenzione del suo pubblico e condurlo nei territori del turbamento e vertigine. I temi del pieno e del vuoto, e dell&'equilibrio delle forme - tipici dell&'arte scultorea classica - subiscono nuove metamorfosi e divengono metafore tragicomiche di un malessere sociale. In questa monografia su Corte, un saggio critico di Gianluca Marziani analizza una selezione di opere secondo un&'ottica &"spettrospettiva&" che annulla i concetti tradizionali di Evoluzione e Maturità. Attraverso questa interpretazione, il lavoro di Corte si colloca in una dimensione neurale, imitando lo sviluppo labirintico che regola il macrocosmo dei più oscuri ed inquietanti processi cerebrali.

Download or read book The Philosophy of Love written by Francesco Patrizi and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patrizi's Philosophy of Love is both a remarkably detailed description of one of the most famous woman scholars of the sixteenth century, Tarquinia Molza, and also a strikingly modern elucidation of the origins of love. Nearly one-half of the book is devoted to a detailed description of Molza, her education, her talents as a musician, poet, and philosopher. In the second half of the book, Molza "teaches" Patrizi her philosophy of love: that "all love emanates from the love we have for ourselves." Readers interested in both the status of women in the Renaissance as well as those interested in the early roots of contemporary "self-psychology" will find this book illuminating.

Download or read book The Way of Hermes written by Hermes (Trismegistus.) and published by Bristol Classical Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Corpus Hermeticum is a collection of short philosphical treatises, a powerful fusion of Greek and Egyptian thought, written in Greek in Alexandria between the first and third centuries AD and rediscovered in the West in the fifteenth century when it was first translated into Latin by the great scholar and philosopher Marsilio Ficino. These writing were believed from antiquity up to the early seventeenth century to be the writings of Hermes Trismegistus, 'thrice-great Hermes', the name given by Greeks of the classical and Hellenistic periods to the Ibis-headed Egyption god Thoth. They were central to the spiritual work of Hermetic societies in late antique Alexandria, aiming to awake gnosis, the direct realistion of the truth of the identity of the invividual and the Supreme, and are still read as inspirational writings today.
