Book Exterranean

    Book Details:
  • Author : Phillip John Usher
  • Publisher : Fordham Univ Press
  • Release : 2019-03-05
  • ISBN : 0823284239
  • Pages : 240 pages

Download or read book Exterranean written by Phillip John Usher and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2019-03-05 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exterranean concerns the extraction of stuff from the Earth, a process in which matter goes from being sub- to exterranean. By opening up a rich archive of nonmodern texts and images from across Europe, this work offers a bracing riposte to several critical trends in ecological thought. By shifting emphasis from emission to extraction, Usher reorients our perspective away from Earthrise-like globes and shows what is gained by opening the planet to depths within. The book thus maps the material and immaterial connections between the Earth from which we extract, the human and nonhuman agents of extraction, and the extracted matter with which we live daily. Eschewing the self-congratulatory claims of posthumanism, Usher instead elaborates a productive tension between the materially-situated homo of nonmodern humanism and the abstract and aggregated anthropos of the Anthropocene. In dialogue with Michel Serres, Bruno Latour, and other interdisciplinary work in the environmental humanities, Usher shows what premodern material can offer to contemporary theory. Examining textual and visual culture alike, Usher explores works by Ronsard, Montaigne, and Rabelais, early scientific works by Paracelsus and others, as well as objects, engravings, buildings, and the Salt Mines of Wieliczka. Both historicist and speculative in approach, Exterranean lays the groundwork for a comparative ecocriticism that reaches across and untranslates theoretical affordances between periods and languages.

Book Ronsard s Contentious Sisters

    Book Details:
  • Author : Roberto E. Campo
  • Publisher : Unc Department of Romance Studies
  • Release : 1998
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 292 pages

Download or read book Ronsard s Contentious Sisters written by Roberto E. Campo and published by Unc Department of Romance Studies. This book was released on 1998 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines Ronsard's participation in the heated paragone debate between poets and painters: the Renaissance contest for superiority in the ranking of the arts that emerged in counterpoint to the parity-centered, pseudo-Horatian principle of ut pictura poesis ("as is painting, so is poetry"). The book explores issues that, despite their importance throughout Ronsard's poetry and the writings of leading paragone theorists such as Leone Battista Alberti and Leonardo da Vinci, have remained largely unnoticed. In broadest terms, Roberto Campo investigates the poet's notions about the differences between poems and pictures. More precisely, it examines Ronsard's views on two fundamental preoccupations of the theoretical and practical discussions about the arts during the Renaissance: which mode of expression, word or image, can more accurately and meaningfully represent natural realities and abstract celestial truths; and thus, whose art, the poet's or the painter's, holds the highest station in the hierarchy of human creative endeavor?

Book The Franciad  1572

    Book Details:
  • Author : Pierre De Ronsard
  • Publisher :
  • Release : 2016-02-01
  • ISBN : 9780404670016
  • Pages : 342 pages

Download or read book The Franciad 1572 written by Pierre De Ronsard and published by . This book was released on 2016-02-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ronsard's "Franciad" appeared at a crucial point in French history. The first four books, after many years of elaboration, finally left the presses of Parisian printer Gabriel Buon on September 13, 1572, less than a month after the St. Bartholomew's Day massacre-an event normally thought to have been ordered by Catherine de Medici, the mother of King Charles IX, Ronsard's patron. France thus sorely lacked national unity; Ronsard's unfinished epic, on the other hand, sought to bolster national (Catholic) pride by providing a shared genealogy that made the French King a descendant of Hector and the Trojan War. The contrast between the historical reality and Ronsard's poetic monument underscores the epic's underlying ideology and its inscription in a slightly earlier, more positive, belief in the destiny of the French nation. "Phillip John Usher's vibrant and highly readable translation, along with its wide-ranging notes and introduction, make the case that the poem as it stands merits a wider audience. . . . A work of scholarship and a labor of love, this volume will deepen the appreciation of new and old readers alike. . . ." -Kathleen Wine, "Renaissance Quarterly" "[T]his work should not be overlooked." -C. E. Campbell, "Choice"

Book Less Rightly Said

    Book Details:
  • Author : Antonia Szabari
  • Publisher : Stanford University Press
  • Release : 2009-10-23
  • ISBN : 0804773548
  • Pages : 304 pages

Download or read book Less Rightly Said written by Antonia Szabari and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2009-10-23 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well-known scholars and poets living in sixteenth-century France, including Erasmus, Ronsard, Calvin, and Rabelais, promoted elite satire that "corrected vices" but "spared the person"—yet this period, torn apart by religious differences, also saw the rise of a much cruder, personal satire that aimed at converting readers to its ideological, religious, and, increasingly, political ideas. By focusing on popular pamphlets along with more canonical works, Less Rightly Said shows that the satirists did not simply renounce the moral ideal of elite, humanist scholarship but rather transmitted and manipulated that scholarship according to their ideological needs. Szabari identifies the emergence of a political genre that provides us with a more thorough understanding of the culture of printing and reading, of the political function of invectives, and of the general role of dissensus in early modern French society.
