Download or read book Men and Bears written by AA.VV. and published by Accademia University Press. This book was released on 2020-01-23 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The time of Carnival represents a "wild" time at the end of winter and pointing to the beginning of a new season. It is characterized by the irruption of border figures, animal masks, characters which recall the world of the dead and which bring within themselves the germ of a vital force, of the energy that produces the reawakening of nature and announces the growth and fertility of the new crops. This wild domain shows itself under the shapes of a contiguity between human and animal: the costumes, the masks, refer to a world in which the characteristics of the human and those of the animal are fused and intertwined. Among these figures, in particular, emerge those of the Wild Man, the human being who takes on animal-like attributes and aspects, and of the Bear, the animal that, more than all the others, gets as close as possible to the human and seems to reflect a deformed image of it. Such symbolic images come from far off times and places to tell a story that belongs to our common origins. The bear assumes attributes and functions alike in very different cultural contexts, such as the Sámi of Finland or North-American hunter-gatherers, and represents a boundary between the world of nature and the human world, between the domain of animals and the difficult construction of humanity: a process continued for centuries, perhaps millennia, and which cannot still be said complete.

Download or read book Slowly Slowly in the Wind written by Patricia Highsmith and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2004-12-17 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Highsmith's writing is wicked . . . it puts a spell on you, after which you feel altered, even tainted."—Entertainment Weekly Slowly, Slowly in the Wind brilliantly assembles many of Patricia Highsmith's most nuanced and psychologically suspenseful works. Rarely has an author articulated so well the hypocrisies of the Catholic Church while conveying the delusions of a writer's life and undermining the fantasy of suburban bliss. Each of these twelve pieces, like all great short fiction, is a crystal-clear snapshot of lives both static and full of chaos. In "The Pond" Highsmith explores the unforeseen calamities that can unalterably shatter a single woman's life, while "The Network" finds sinister loneliness and joy in the mundane yet engrossing friendships of a small community of urban dwellers. In this enduring and disturbing collection, Highsmith evokes the gravity and horror of her characters' surroundings with evenhanded prose and a detailed imagination.
Download or read book L artista viaggiatore written by Claudio Spadoni and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: C'è chi si entusiasma, come Paul Klee, per le sere tunisine di "una bellezza indescrivibile" e chi, come Henri Matisse, ricordando il mare polinesiano, sospira per i "grigi verde giada" delle lagune, per le "eleganti palme" e le "bande di pesci blu, gialli, zebrati di nero". Nostalgia, desiderio, stupore, felicità; quanti sentimenti hanno ispirato e ancora ispirano quei paesi lontani che tanta letteratura, da Salgari a Chatwin ci hanno avvicinato. Anche gli artisti hanno riportato i ricordi, le esperienze e le emozioni dei loro viaggi. Come l'esploratore, da quelli letterari come Ulisse a quelli reali come Marco Polo, James Cook, Jacques Cousteau, anche l'artista partecipa alla mitologia del grande viaggiatore. Si intendono così evocare le atmosfere di quattro continenti, Africa, Asia, America Latina e Oceania, attraverso gli occhi degli artisti europei, interessati ora agli splendidi panorami, dai deserti alle barriere coralline, ora alle popolazioni locali e ai loro costumi, ora alla magia dell'architettura orientale.

Download or read book Religious Narratives in Italian Literature after the Second Vatican Council written by Jenny Ponzo and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2019-03-18 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a semiotic study of the re-elaboration of Christian narratives and values in a corpus of Italian novels published after the Second Vatican Council (1960s). It tackles the complex set of ideas expressed by Italian writers about the biblical narration of human origins and traditional religious language and ritual, the perceived clash between the immanent and transcendent nature and role of the Church, and the problematic notion of sanctity emerging from contemporary narrative.
