This book was released on 2020-06-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Women and Community in Medieval and Early Modern Iberia draws on recent research to underscore the various ways Iberian women influenced and contributed to their communities, engaging with a broader academic discussion of women's agency and cultural impact in the Iberian Peninsula. By focusing on women from across the socioeconomic and religious spectrum--elite, bourgeois, and peasant Christian women, Jewish, Muslim, converso, and Morisco women, and married, widowed, and single women--this volume highlights the diversity of women's experiences, examining women's social, economic, political, and religious ties to their families and communities in both urban and rural environments. Comprised of twelve essays from both established and new scholars, Women and Community in Medieval and Early Modern Iberia showcases groundbreaking work on premodern women, revealing the complex intersections between gender and community while highlighting not only relationships of support and inclusion but also the tensions that worked to marginalize and exclude women.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best known for her engaging portraits and sensuous still lifes, Mexican artist Maria Izquierdo (1902-1955) created a remarkable body of work that is deeply personal and profoundly affecting; yet she has often been overlooked amid the muralists who were her contemporaries.While European modernism was important to Izquierdo, Mexico's traditional culture, popular arts, and rural landscapes provided her with a lifelong source of subjects. Her numerous paintings lovingly depict the foods and hand-crafted objects used in popular ritual and devotion. In her later life, she produced a number of hauntingly surreal compositions that show vibrant tableaux of typically Mexican foods before barren, somber-hued landscapes with unusually deep perspectives.This book, based on the first comprehensive presentation of her oeuvre in New York, confirms Izquierdo's place in the history of Mexican art. In addition to bringing together some sixty outstanding paintings and works on paper by the artist, the book features three essays on her life and work: curator Elizabeth Ferrer presents an overview of Izquierdo's oeuvre; art historian Olivier Debroise analyzes the artistic relationship between Izquierdo and her mentor Rufino Tamayo, and Elena Poniatowski explores Izquierdo's position as a woman in the Mexican art world.

Download or read book Images of Women in Hispanic Culture written by Teresa Fernandez Ulloa and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2016-08-17 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the ways traditional polarized images of women have been used and challenged in the Hispanic world, especially during the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century by writers and the media, but also in earlier time periods. The chapters analyze the image of women in specific political periods such as Francoism or the Kirchners’ administration, stereotypes of women in films in Mexico and Chile, and the representation of women in textbooks, among other topics. Contributions also show how two women writers, in the 17th and the 19th centuries, viewed the role of women in their society.

Download or read book Art Of Memory written by F A Yates and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-08 with total page 445 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First Published in 1999. This title is the third volume in the ten-volume set titled the Selected Works of Frances Yates. Greyscale illustrations and figures are included throughout - alongside the related descriptive work where applicable. The art in this volume seeks to memorise through a technique of impressing 'places' and 'images' on memory. It has usually been classed as 'mnemotechnics', which appears an unimportant branch of human activity. However, the author discusses in this title that the manipulation of images in memory must always, to some extent, involve the psyche.

Download or read book C mo ser una mujer del Renacimiento written by Jill Burke and published by Editorial Crítica. This book was released on 2024-06-12 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Una historia alternativa del Renacimiento contada por las mujeres detrás de las pinturas. Belleza, maquillaje, arte, poder: Cómo ser una mujer en el Renacimiento presenta una historia alternativa de este fascinante período contada por las mujeres detrás de las pinturas. El Renacimiento fue una época obsesionada por las apariencias: el mundo visual se pobló de desnudos de la mano de artistas como Miguel Ángel y Tiziano y emergió una vibrante escena literaria alrededor de consejos de belleza, cosméticos y adornos. Jill Burke nos lleva desde las bulliciosas plazas del mercado italiano hasta los niveles más altos de la sociedad renacentista para acercarnos a las vidas de cortesanas, artistas, actrices y escritoras que se labraron un espacio propio, así como aquellas que ganaron poder e influencia en el despiadado mundo de la corte o las que se rebelaron contra las restricciones de su época en un momento en el que las valoraciones sobre los cuerpos y el color de la piel estaban en el punto de mira debido al contexto colonial. Esta vívida exploración de la vida íntima de las mujeres renacentistas nos invita a cuestionar las ideas de tenemos sobre nuestro propio cuerpo a la vez que desentraña los orígenes de los ideales de belleza que todavía nos acompañan en la actualidad. «Nunca verás los retratos del Renacimiento de la misma manera.» Maggie O'Farrell, autora de Hamnet y El retrato de casada
