Download or read book Romanesque Tomb Effigies written by Shirin Fozi and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-03-12 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Framed by evocative inscriptions, tumultuous historical events, and the ambiguities of Christian death, Romanesque tomb effigies were the first large-scale figural monuments for the departed in European art. In this book, Shirin Fozi explores these provocative markers of life and death, establishing early tomb figures as a coherent genre that hinged upon histories of failure and frustrated ambition. In sharp contrast to later recumbent funerary figures, none of the known European tomb effigies made before circa 1180 were commissioned by the people they represented, and all of the identifiable examples of these tombs were dedicated to individuals whose legacies were fraught rather than triumphant. Fozi draws on this evidence to argue that Romanesque effigies were created to address social rather than individual anxieties: they compensated for defeat by converting local losses into an expectation of eternal victory, comforting the embarrassed heirs of those whose histories were marked by misfortune and offering compensation for the disappointments of the world. Featuring numerous examples and engaging the visual, historical, and theological contexts that inform them, this groundbreaking work adds a fresh dimension to the study of monumental sculpture and the idea of the individual in the northern European Middle Ages. It will appeal to scholars of art history and medieval studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humanity has reached the stars, terraforming new planets as we go. A virus wiped out our cats and dogs a few hundred years ago, and we faced going to the stars alone. That wouldn’t do. With our genetic expertise, we took the genes from the big animals on Earth and created smaller versions. We have elephants, giraffes, hyenas, moose, and others that are now the size of our former beloved cats and dogs. Because one very human truth will never change: People need pets. Each story tells a tale about humans and pets. No one saves the galaxy. No one cures a wasting disease. Some are eventful, some are slice-of-life, but all will give you a sense that, even though the animals have changed, humanity’s dependence on pets has not. Story Summaries: Losing Wiffles: Jenkins likes the pet giraffe his manager keeps at the hardware store. But one night, everything goes wrong.
