Download or read book Studies in the French Renaissance Classic Reprint written by Arthur Tilley and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in the French Renaissance All except two of the papers contained in this volume have appeared before in some form or another. But all have been revised, added to, and in some cases largely rewritten. The result is that nearly half the volume consists of new matter. The first paper, "The University of Caen," was originally printed in a volume entitled Fasciculus Joanni Willis Clark dicatus, in which many friends of the late J.W. Clark united to express their sense of his lifelong devotion to the cause of knowledge and the service of the University. My own contribution seemed a fitting tribute from an alumnus of Henry VI's twin foundations of Eton and Kings College, and I was pleased to find that one of the Rectors of the University of Caen was in many respects a prototype of our friend. He was not only Registrary of his University, but he was distinguished for his devotion to its interests; he gave freely of his books to its library; and he wrote a play for the students, in which he took the chief part. The paper on "The Prose Romances of Chivalry" appeared in French in the Revue du seizieme Steele for 1919; besides translating it I have carefully revised it. "Rabelais and Geographical Discovery" was contributed to the Modern Language Review from 1906 to 1910. "Rabelais and Henri II" is practically new, only six pages having appeared before - in French, in the Revue du seizieme Siecle (1907 and1916). The first part of "Rabelais and the Fifth Book," which relates to the He Sonante, was published in the Modern Language Review for 1906-7; in the second part I have examined the rest of the book. It is for others to determine how far I have solved the long-disputed question of Rabelais's authorship. The account of "Humanism under Francis I" is an expanded and practically rewritten version of an article in the English Historical Review(1900). Even now it does not pretend to be more than a sketch of a small part of a very large subject - the history of French Humanism - which still awaits its historian.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1984, Professor Knecht's study quickly established itself as the best short account of the period. The reigns of Francis I and Henry II, spanning the first half of the sixteenth century, are one of the most colourful and formative periods of French history. In addition to examining the nature and effectiveness of their reigns, Professor Knecht also examines their foreign policies which brought them into conflict with other major powers. For this new edition the author has added a new chapter on patronage and the arts.
Download or read book Idle Pursuits written by Virginia Krause and published by University of Delaware Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Throughout this study, idleness is shown to be a key element of self-presentation beginning with the figure of the idle aristocrat. The extravagant display of a life of leisure made Gilles de Rais the icon of aristocratic idleness. But even the hardworking humanist was anxious to assume a studied posture of idleness. If both figures were eager to display idleness, it was because oisivete was an important source of what modern theorists have termed symbolic capital. Finally, the Renaissance also saw the birth of a new figure of the "idler": the consumer of leisure. For it was leisure itself along with chivalric and amorous adventure that was consumed by the readers of the popular Amadis series. At once a commodity and form of capital, idleness (otium) clearly belonged to the realm of social exchanges ostensibly reserved for affairs (negotium)."--BOOK JACKET.
Download or read book The Palaeotypography of the French Renaissance written by Hendrik D. L. Vervliet and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2008 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of thirteen essays examines sixteenth-century type design in France. Typefaces developed during this period were to influence decisively the typography of the centuries which followed, and they continue to influence a great many contemporary typefaces. The papers' common goal is to establish the paternity of the typefaces described and critically to appraise their attributions, many of which have previously been inadequately ascribed. Such an approach will be of interest to type historians and type designers seeking better-documented attributions, and to historians, philologists, and bibliographers, whose study of historical imprints will benefit from more accurate type descriptions. The papers and illustrations focus on the most important letter-cutters of the French Renaissance, including Simon de Colines, Robert Estienne, Claude Garamont, Robert Granjon, Pierre Haultin, and also include a number of minor masters of the period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Itineraries in French Renaissance Literature brings together a full score of essays by established and rising American-based scholars of the early modern. Arranged according to five themes or genres: Tales and their Tellers, Poets and Poetry, Religious Controversy, Montaigne, and Knowledge Networks, they offer both fresh perspectives on canonical authors such as Marguerite de Navarre, Rabelais, Montaigne, Marot, Labé, and Hélisenne de Crenne, as well as original interpretations of less familiar works of sixteenth-century moment: confessional polemics, emblems, cartography, geomancy, epigraphy, bibliophilism and even ichthyology. Inspired by and gathered together here to honor the eclectic career of Mary B. McKinley, this anthology integrates many of the most pertinent topics and contemporary approaches of early modern French scholarly inquiry. Contributors are: Pascale Barthe, Leah L. Chang, Edwin M. Duval, Gary Ferguson, George Hoffmann, Robert J. Hudson, Karen Simroth James, Scott D. Juall, Virginia Krause, Kathleen Long, Stephen Murphy, Corinne Noirot, Jeff Persels, Bernd Renner, Nicolas Russell, Nicholas Shangler, Cynthia Skenazi, Kendall Tarte, Cara Welch, and Cathy Yandell.
Download or read book Exploration and Revelation written by Yassana C. Croizat and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Under the aegis of discerning patrons such as François I, Henri II, and Catherine de' Medici, France developed a rich artistic vocabulary dominated by elongated figures, inventive decorative motifs, and intriguing subject matter. The frequently ephemeral nature of artistic production during this period, along with losses engendered by time and events like the French Revolution, has meant that this is a period still flush with rewarding investigative possibilities. The volume's contributors explore different aspects of the extant material record and how it was shaped, at times by radical changes in the social and political climate, focusing particularly on works of art in American collections, thus helping to widen the scope of research carried out in France. Several authors provide exciting new attributions, bringing greater understanding to the careers of artists such as Baptiste Pellerin and the two Cousin, père et fils. The enduring appeal of French Renaissance aesthetics is also explored here, attesting to the visual vibrancy of this distinctive period in France's history."--.

Download or read book Advertising the Self in Renaissance France written by Scott Francis and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2019-04-10 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advertising the Self in Renaissance France explores how authors and readers are represented in printed editions of three major literary figures: Jean Lemaire de Belges, Clément Marot, and François Rabelais. Print culture is marked by an anxiety of reception that became much more pronounced with increasingly anonymous and unpredictable readerships in the sixteenth century. To allay this anxiety, authors, as well as editors and printers, turned to self-fashioning in order to sell not only their books but also particular ways of reading. They advertised correct modes of reading as transformative experiences offered by selfless authors that would help the actual reader attain the image of the ideal reader held up by the text and paratext. Thus, authorial personae were constructed around the self-fashioning offered to readers, creating an interdependent relationship that anticipated modern advertising.
