Download or read book Behind the Door written by Giorgio Bassani and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2017-09-28 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new translation of Bassani's moving novel of childhood friendship and the unexpected loss of innocence The years lived since then have not, in the end, been of any use: I haven't managed to remedy the suffering which has remained there like a hidden wound, secretly bleeding. In the fourth book of the Romanzo di Ferrara cycle, Bassani paints a moving portrait of a 1930s childhood in which even the familiar classroom and playground dramas begin to reflect the sinister forces at work in fascist Italy. This powerful tale of friendship and rivalry in the face of the ever encroaching spectre of adulthood adds yet another intricate thread to Bassani's rich tapestry of his native city, Ferrara. 'Giorgio Bassani is one of the great witnesses of this century, and one of its great artists' Guardian 'Powerful new translations . . . Bassani began as a poet, and McKendrick's redelivery of this taut uncompromising fiction reveals resonance and generosity' Ali Smith
Download or read book The Wall of the Earth written by Giorgio Caproni and published by Guernica Editions. This book was released on 1992 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The work of Giorgio Caproni has been translated into French, German, and Chinese, among others, but this collection is his first book-length English publication. His works are finely tuned to modern man's preoccupations with existence in a world deprived of certainties (for example, the existence or inexistence of God). Most are touched by experiences such as the Second World War and its atrocities, the Resistance Movement, or the death of loved ones, events that represent the conviction of a subject that will do its best to survive all adversity, uncompromised" -- from the Introduction by Pasquale Verdicchio

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 The Smell of Hay written by Giorgio Bassani and published by Penguin Classics. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new translation of Giorgio Bassani's haunting collection of short stories that evoke 1930s Ferrara, with an introduction by Ali Smith. Isolated lives and a lost world are evoked in these memorable stories set in the Jewish-Italian community of 1930s Ferrara. A young man's unrequited love; a strange disappearance; a faded hotel; a lonely funfair; the smell of mown hay at the gates of the Jewish Cemetery - these vivid, impressionistic snapshots build a picture of life's brevity and intensity. Part of the sequence including The Gold-Rimmed Spectacles and The Garden of the Finzi-Continis, and featuring people and places from these novels, The Smell of Hay is told with a voice that is by turns intimate, ironic, elegiac and rueful. This new translation contains two pieces, added by Bassani to his earlier collection, which have never appeared in English before. 'Powerful new translations . . . Bassani began as a poet, and McKendrick's redelivery of this taut uncompromising fiction reveals resonance and generosity' Ali Smith 'Giorgio Bassani is one of the great witnesses of this century, and one of its great artists' Guardian Giorgio Bassani (1916-2000) was an Italian poet, novelist and editor. The Smell of Hay is the last in a series of six works collected together as Il romanzo di Ferrara. Other works in the cycle include The Garden of the Finzi-Continis, which received the Viareggio Prize and inspired an Academy Award-winning film adaptation by Vittorio de Sica, The Gold-Rimmed Spectacles, and Within the Walls (originally published as Five Stories of Ferrara), which won the Strega Prize. Jamie McKendrick is a poet and translator. His translations of Bassani's The Garden of the Finzi-Continis and The Gold-Rimmed Spectacles are already available as Penguin Modern Classics, and he is in the process of translating the rest of the Romanzo di Ferrara cycle anew.
Download or read book Studi sul barocco romano written by Maria Grazia Bernardini and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questa raccolta di scritti di storia dell'arte, promossa dalla Direzione Generale per il Patrimonio Storico Artistico e Demoetnoantropologico del Ministero per i Beni e le Attività Culturali, vuole essere un omaggio a un grande e appassionato storico dell'arte, Maurizio Fagiolo Dell'Arco. In considerazione dei suoi specifici interessi sull'arte barocca, cui Maurizio ha dedicato gran parte della sua attività di studioso, numerosi colleghi e amici, italiani e stranieri, hanno voluto ricordarlo con contributi sul barocco romano. Così i saggi spaziano da Caravaggio, con interventi di Marini e Curzietti, alla scuola bolognese, con testi di Montanari, Carloni, Guarino, Loire, Schleier, all'amatissimo Giovan Lorenzo Bernini, con saggi di Lavin e di Del Pesco; e ancora saggi su Cortona e cortoneschi, oggetto di uno dei suoi ultimi libri (saggi di Lo Bianco e Fisher Pace), su Pierre Lemaire, (Brejon de Lavergnée), sul Gaulli, di cui Maurizio Fagiolo ha curato una magnifica mostra ad Ariccia (Debenedetti, Graf, Vodret). Altri contributi hanno affrontato temi sull'architettura (Marconi), sulla scultura (Cipriani, Pampalone), sull'arte decorativa e sugli apparati effimeri (González Palacios, Bilancia, Marcello Fagiolo, Franchi). A questi si aggiungono gli studi di Röttgen, Tiberia, Corradini, Rosenberg, Pantanella, Griseri, Guerrieri Borsoi, Sestieri, Petrucci, Negro, Prosperi Valenti Rodinò, Bernardini, Spinosa, Barbiellini Amidei, Boccardo, Barbera, Herrmann Fiore, Morello. Il volume, ricco di nuovi dati documentari, di nuove riflessioni critiche sull'arte seicentesca a Roma, di spunti per ulteriori indagini, costituisce uno strumento importantissimo di lavoro, proprio in sintonia con il pensiero di Maurizio Fagiolo Dell'Arco, sempre disponibile a confronti e consigli, che nel lontano 1967 aveva scritto (insieme con il fratello Marcello) il primo e l'unico catalogo dell'opera di Giovan Lorenzo Bernini, strumento ancora oggi validissimo e imprescindibile per chi voglia avvicinarsi allo studio del "regista del barocco".
