Download or read book Aeneid Book VI written by Seamus Heaney and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 111 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A masterpiece from one of the greatest poets of the century In a momentous publication, Seamus Heaney's translation of Book VI of the Aeneid, Virgil's epic poem composed sometime between 29 and 19 BC, follows the hero, Aeneas, on his descent into the underworld. In Stepping Stones, a book of interviews conducted by Dennis O'Driscoll, Heaney acknowledged the significance of the poem to his writing, noting that "there's one Virgilian journey that has indeed been a constant presence, and that is Aeneas's venture into the underworld. The motifs in Book VI have been in my head for years--the golden bough, Charon's barge, the quest to meet the shade of the father." In this new translation, Heaney employs the same deft handling of the original combined with the immediacy of language and sophisticated poetic voice as was on show in his translation of Beowulf, a reimagining which, in the words of James Wood, "created something imperishable and great that is stainless--stainless, because its force as poetry makes it untouchable by the claw of literalism: it lives singly, as an English language poem."

Download or read book Picasso Mir Dal written by Palazzo Strozzi (Florence, Italy) and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The birth of modernity as seen through sixty stunning early works by three of the greatest artists of all times. This catalogue begins by examining Picasso's pre-cubist period, between 1900 and 1905, while closely contrasting works created by Juan Miró between 1915 and 1920 with those by Salvador Dalí in the five-year period between 1920-1925, in order to highlight the differences and stylistic relationships marking the period prior to the two artists' adherence to Surrealist poetics. In order to enquire into particular aspects of the early production of these artists, the authors have chosen works rarely exhibited in public or published; yet these fascinating paintings influenced what was to come, and they include The Spanish Dancer from 1901 by Picasso, Threshing by Mirò from 1918, and Neo-cubist academy by Dalì, which dates from 1926. Picasso's early work is profoundly influenced by the artist's political convictions: in Madrid in 1901 Picasso founded the magazine "Arte Joven", which frequently published unforgiving images of the plight of the proletariat. As for Miró, he rejected figurative painting as an expression of the cultural identity of the governing classes and also saw cubism as a "political tool". Much younger than Picasso and Miró, Dalí was ousted from the Academy in 1926, shortly prior to undertaking final examinations, for having declared that no one in the faculty was sufficiently competent to examine him. His early work is marked by a complete mastery of pictorial techniques, an example is Girl at the window from 1926, depicted with vivid realism.
Download or read book Artistic Practices written by Tasos Zembylas and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art matters. It affects us in our daily lives and is full of meanings that are valuable to all of us. As a catalyst for social interactions, art may either cause public conflict and create dissensions or facilitate mutual understanding and strengthen collective bonds. All of this is grounded in practices that develop and change along social interaction, cultural dynamics, as well as technological and economic lines. So how is art formed and produced? What are the relevant constraints and challenges that artists experience in the creative process? And what constitutes artistic agency? This collection of contributions from international, interdisciplinary experts explores particular case studies to deeply analyse artistic practices. Comprising eleven chapters relating to different art forms, each chapter offers an original perspective conveying a comprehensive understanding of artistic practices as arrays of specific activities in contemporary art worlds. This book will be important for both researchers and practitioners in the field. It will help artists to deepen their analytical abilities, enabling them to further their own creative practice. It will allow students and researchers to gain insights into processes of artistic creation and thus into the reproduction of art, as well as innovation in the arts.
