Extrait: Un labyrinthe ( en grec, labyrinthus en latin) est un trace sinueux, muni ou non d'embranchements, d'impasses et de fausses pistes, destine a perdre ou a ralentir celui qui cherche a s'y deplacer. Ce motif, apparu des la prehistoire, se retrouve dans de tres nombreuses civilisations sous des formes diverses. Son etymologie reste incertaine. Il designe dans la mythologie grecque une serie complexe de galeries construites par Dedale pour enfermer le Minotaure. De nos jours, le terme de labyrinthe designe une organisation complexe, tortueuse, concrete (architecture, urbanisme, jardins, paysages...) ou abstraite (structures, facons de penser...), ou l'homme peut se perdre. Le cheminement du labyrinthe est difficile a suivre et a saisir dans sa globalite. Il existe plusieurs types de labyrinthes: Le labyrinthe du roman le Nom de la rose est un labyrinthe manieriste et celui ou vit Guillaume est suggere comme etant un rhizome. Mais les labyrinthes suggeres dans le roman ne sont pas spatiaux, mais mentaux. La plus ancienne representation d'un labyrinthe a ete trouvee dans une tombe siberienne datant du paleolithique: il s'agit d'un dedale de sept circonvolutions, entoure de quatre doubles spirales, le tout grave sur un morceau d'ivoire de mammouth. On trouve aussi des labyrinthes . Ces traces sont inscrits dans des carres ou des cercles, accompagnes de dessins d'ours, d'oiseaux ou de serpents. Sur l'ile de Gavrinis, en...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the old city of Trœzene, at the foot of a lofty mountain, there lived, a very long time ago, a little boy named Theseus. His grandfather, King Pittheus, was the sovereign of that country, and was reckoned a very wise man; so that Theseus, being brought up in the royal palace, and being naturally a bright lad, could hardly fail of profiting by the old king's instructions. His mother's name was Æthra. As for his father, the boy had never seen him. But, from his earliest remembrance, Æthra used to go with little Theseus into a wood, and sit down upon a moss-grown rock, which was deeply sunken into the earth. Here she often talked with her son about his father, and said that he was called Ægeus, and that he was a great king, and ruled over Attica, and dwelt at Athens, which was as famous a city as any in the world. Theseus was very fond of hearing about King Ægeus, and often asked his good mother Æthra why he did not come and live with them at Trœzene.

Download or read book A Supplement of the Faery Queene written by Christopher Burlinson and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-26 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ralph Knevet's Supplement of the Faery Queene (1635) is a narrative and allegorical work, which weaves together a complex collection of tales and episodes, featuring knights, ladies, sorcerers, monsters, vertiginous fortresses and deadly battles – a chivalric romp in Spenser's cod medieval style. The poem shadows recent English history, and the major military and political events of the Thirty Years War. But the Supplement is also an ambitiously intertextual poem, weaving together materials from mythic, literary, historical, scientific, theological, and many other kinds of written sources. Its encyclopaedic ambitions combine with Knevet's historical focus to produce an allegorical epic poem of considerable interest and power. This new edition of Knevet's Supplement, the first scholarly text of the poem ever published, situates it in its literary, historical, biographical, and intellectual contexts. An extensive introduction and copious critical commentary, positioned at the back of the book, will enable students and scholars alike to access Knevet's complicated and enigmatic meanings, structures, and allusions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the early intellectual reception of the cinema and the manner in which art theorists, philosophers, cultural theorists, and especially artists of the first decades of the twentieth century responded to its advent. While the idea persists that early writers on film were troubled by the cinema’s lowly form, this work proposes that there was another, largely unrecognized, strain in the reception of it. Far from anxious about film’s provenance in popular entertainment, some writers and artists proclaimed that the cinema was the most important art for the moderns, as it exemplified the vibrancy of contemporary life. This view of the cinema was especially common among those whose commitments were to advanced artistic practices. Their notions about how to recast the art media (or the forms forged from those media’s materials) and the urgency of doing so formed the principal part of the conceptual core of the artistic programs advanced by the vanguard art movements of the first half of the twentieth century. This book, a companion to the author’s previous, Harmony & Dissent, examines the Dada and Surrealist movements as responses to the advent of the cinema.
