Download or read book The Hours of Simon de Varie written by James H. Marrow and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 1994 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leading French painters in the late medieval period executed miniatures for lavishly illuminated books of hours. In the mid-fifteenth century, Simon de Varie commissioned such a book. Completed in 1455, it included five priceless works by the most eminent French painter of the time, Jean Fouquet, as well as other striking paintings by two of his contemporaries. In the seventeenth century, Simon de Varie's book was divided into three sections and sold as separate volumes. Two of these volumes are today in the Royal Library in The Hague. The third volume--thought lost until 1984, when it surfaced in a private collection and was subsequently acquired by the Getty Museum--contains the first miniatures by Jean Fouquet to have been discovered in eighty years. This beautiful book will reproduce in color all of the miniatures and historiated initials in the original manuscript, along with selected text pages with secondary decoration. Comparative illustrations also accompany the two essays in the volume. Marrow's text addresses the role of books of hours in late medieval culture; the contents and form of de Varie's Hours; and the relationship of the miniatures by Fouquet to the rest of the artist's oeuvre. In a related essay, Francois Avril discusses the position of Simon de Varie and his family in mid-fifteenth-century France. The publication of The Hours of Simon de Varie adds to the Getty's impressive list of publications on illuminated manuscripts begun in 1990 and including the widely acclaimed facsimile Mira calligraphiae monumenta.
Download or read book Near to the Wild Heart written by Clarice Lispector and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-13 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new translation of Clarice Lispector's sensational first book tells the story of a middle class woman's life from childhood through an unhappy marriage and its dissolution to transcendence. Near to the Wild Heart, published in Rio de Janeiro in 1943, introduced Brazil to what one writer called “Hurricane Clarice”: a twenty-three-year-old girl who wrote her first book in a tiny rented room and then baptized it with a title taken from Joyce: “He was alone, unheeded, near to the wild heart of life.” The book was an unprecedented sensation — the discovery of a genius. Narrative epiphanies and interior monologue frame the life of Joana, from her middle-class childhood through her unhappy marriage and its dissolution to transcendence, when she proclaims: “I shall arise as strong and comely as a young colt.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1914, Luisa writes in a letter to the now Saint, Annibale M. di Francia: “I am finally sending you this handwritten copy of The Hours of the Passion of Our Lord Jesus Christ. May it all be for His greater Glory. I have also enclosed a few pages where I describe the effects and the beautiful promises that Jesus makes to everyone who meditates these Hours of the Passion. I believe that if whoever meditates on them is a sinner, he will convert; if he is imperfect, he will become perfect; if he is holy, he will become holier; if he is tempted, he will find victory; if suffering, he will find strength, medicine, and comfort in these Hours; if weak and poor, he will find a spiritual food and a mirror in which to look at himself continually and so become beautiful and similar to Jesus, our model”.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El ayer de hoy es la vida de dos seres que en su debido tiempo creyeron haber encontrado el amor de sus vidas. Quizas fue amor a primera vista o quizas fue el destino quien los puso en el mismo camino de la vida y ambos sin saberlo vivieron un idilio que tambien seria el destino el que se encargaria de ponerlos frente a frente con lo inesperado. Es el amor de Alejandro y de Erin, un amor simple, pero profundo, un amor que a pesar del tiempo y las circunstancias no conocio el final. Sin embargo, las condiciones en la cuales ese amor crecio fueron mas que complicadas. Alejandro y Erin nunca perdieron la fe en ese amor, pero la vida les determino caminos alternos. ?Es que acaso fue un verdadero amor, o fue tan solo un espejismo de amor? No hay ninguna duda de que aquel amor que florecio en un secreto que ambos decidieron mantener tambien fue ese mismo secreto que quizas lo llevo a lo imprevisto. Nunca hubo un verdadero adios. El adios nunca se dio porque simplemente ambos nunca creyeron en ese adios. Ambos se habian jurado un amor para toda la vida, eso fue para Alejandro y para Erin el amor de ayer y el amor de hoy, el hacer mantener vivo lo que siempre ellos creyeron, un amor sin final.

Download or read book Cuba EEUU la hora del deshielo written by Guerrero Vall, Joan Antoni and published by Editorial UOC. This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: El 17 de diciembre de 2014, Barack Obama y Raúl Castro anunciaron un pacto por el que ambos países realizarían un reset en sus relaciones, viciadas por décadas de guerra fría, con un embargo económico de por medio y una retórica de enemistad continua. Visto por unos como una capitulación de Estados Unidos ante el Gobierno cubano, el cambio de rumbo de la política de Washington hacia la isla es visto por otros como una oportunidad para la aparición de una clase media que reclame más derechos políticos y acabe con décadas de dictadura. El Régimen, en cambio, mantiene firme su voluntad de continuar conservando un sistema unipartidista y que penaliza la libertad política. Mientras, una debilitada oposición, a la que el Régimen niega cualquier espacio, intenta lidiar en este nuevo escenario en el que La Habana parece estar logrando legitimidad política en el tablero internacional. Este libro explora los acontecimientos de los primeros meses tras el anuncio de deshielo entre Cuba y EE. UU. al tiempo que trata de ofrecer una selección de las principales cuestiones para profundizar en los retos que el giro de Obama plantea para el futuro de la isla caribeña. Porque aunque esto parezca el fin de una historia, lo más probable es que estemos presenciando el alumbramiento de una nueva.

This book was released on 2022-01-31 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (The open access version of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation.) The book proposes a reassessment of royal portraiture and its function in the Middle Ages via a comparative analysis of works from different areas of the Mediterranean world, where images are seen as only one outcome of wider and multifarious strategies for the public mise-en-scène of the rulers’ bodies. Its emphasis is on the ways in which medieval monarchs in different areas of the Mediterranean constructed their outward appearance and communicated it by means of a variety of rituals, object-types, and media. Contributors are Michele Bacci, Nicolas Bock, Gerardo Boto Varela, Branislav Cvetković, Sofia Fernández Pozzo, Gohar Grigoryan Savary, Elodie Leschot, Vinni Lucherini, Ioanna Rapti, Juan Carlos Ruiz Souza, Marta Serrano-Coll, Lucinia Speciale, Manuela Studer-Karlen, Mirko Vagnoni, and Edda Vardanyan.
