Book excerpt: An analysis of the work of Emilie Rose Macaulay (1881-1958), who strove in virtually all of her twenty-three novels to articulate the needs of women for autonomy and achievement.

Book Erotic Beasts and Social Monsters

Download or read book Erotic Beasts and Social Monsters written by Grace Tiffany and published by University of Delaware Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The voluminous contemporary critical work on English Renaissance androgyny/transvestism has not fully uncovered the ancient Greek and Roman roots of the gender controversy. This work argues that the variant Renaissance views on the androgyne's symbolism are, in fact, best understood with reference to classical representations of the double-sexed or gender-baffled figures, and with the classical merging of the figure with images of beasts and monsters.

Book Eros in the Mind s Eye

    Book Details:
  • Author : Donald Palumbo
  • Publisher : Praeger
  • Release : 1986-07-16
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 328 pages

Download or read book Eros in the Mind s Eye written by Donald Palumbo and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1986-07-16 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lively collection offers a wide-ranging exploration of the erotic and the fantastic in painting, illustration, and frilm. It covers Western art of six centuries--from medieval woodcuts to contemporary poster art--and the cinema of six decades--from horror classics of the 1930s to recent slasher films--documenting the surprising variety of guises in which sexuality appears in fantasy art and cinema. Among the subjects treated are occult eroticism in Medieval and Renaissance art; the use of fantasy as a vehicle for depicting erotic subjects in periods of sexual repression; the fascination with unconscious and aberrant sexuality in the visual arts since the publication of Freud's theories; movie monsters and aliens as emblems of the submerged id or libido; and monstrous metamorphosis as a symbol of the changes accompanying puberty.

Book The Androgyne in Early German Romanticism

Download or read book The Androgyne in Early German Romanticism written by Sara Friedrichsmeyer and published by Peter Lang Group Ag, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1983 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The androgyne has remained for centuries a quintessential ideal of oneness. Relatively obscure in German literature until the end of the 18th century, it became in early German Romanticism the paradigm for personal and historical perfection. As interpreters of earlier forms of the ideal - transmitted through Plato and Bohme, through alchemy, mysticism, Pietism and the entire Hermetic tradition - and also as the first to understand it in psychological terms, the Jena Romantics occupy a pivotal position in the historical development of the dream of androgynous wholeness."

Book Modernist Women Writers and Spirituality

Download or read book Modernist Women Writers and Spirituality written by Elizabeth Anderson and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-12-22 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concentrating on female modernists specifically, this volume examines spiritual issues and their connections to gender during the modernist period. Scholarly inquiry surrounding women writers and their relation to what Wassily Kandinsky famously hoped would be an ‘Epoch of the Great Spiritual’ has generated myriad contexts for closer analysis including: feminist theology, literary and religious history, psychoanalysis, queer and trauma theory. This book considers canonical authors such as Virginia Woolf while also attending to critically overlooked or poorly understood figures such as H.D., Mary Butts, Rose Macaulay, Evelyn Underhill, Christopher St. John and Dion Fortune. With wide-ranging topics such as the formally innovative poetry of Stevie Smith and Hope Mirrlees to Evelyn Underhill’s mystical treatises and correspondence, this collection of essays aims to grant voices to the mostly forgotten female voices of the modernist period, showing how spirituality played a vital role in their lives and writing.

Book Untold Stories in Organizations

Download or read book Untold Stories in Organizations written by Michal Izak and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-11-13 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of organizational storytelling research is productive, vibrant and diverse. Over three decades we have come to understand how organizations are not only full of stories but also how stories are actively making, sustaining and changing organizations. This edited collection contributes to this body of work by paying specific attention to stories that are neglected, edited out, unintentionally omitted or deliberately left silent. Despite the fact that such stories are not voiced they have a role to play in organizational analysis. The chapters in this volume variously explore how certain realities become excluded or silenced. The stories that remain below the audible range in organizations offer researchers an access to study political practices which marginalise certain organisational realities whilst promoting others. This volume offers a further contribution by paying heed to silence and the processes of silencing. These silences influence the choice of issues on organisational agendas, the choice of audience(s) to which these discourses are addressed and the ways of addressing them. In exploring these relatively understudied terrains, Untold Stories in Organizations comprises an important contribution to the organizational storytelling space, opening paths for new trajectories in storytelling research.

Book Romanticism and the Androgynous Sublime

Download or read book Romanticism and the Androgynous Sublime written by Warren Stevenson and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies and articulates the emergence from the poetical subtext of six major English romantics of "the androgynous sublime", a mode that conflates the motif of psychic androgyny (traceable as far back as the Book of Genesis and Plato's Symposium) with the mode of sublimity, first discussed by Longinus and much debated from the eighteenth century onward. Frequently echoed by the romantic poets, Milton's description of the Holy Spirit's role in the creation of the world is androgynous. Since humane creativity mirrors divine creativity, it follows that the artist qua artist muct also be androgynous - that is, endowed with what Lyrical Ballads, calls "a more comprehensive soul" than is "supposed to be common among mankind". Characterized by a flexuous, limber style and an association with androgynous subject matter, the androgynous sublime subverts conventional notions of sublimity while offering a more comprehensive model with which to supplement, of non supplant, them. The methodology of this study is to present a "counter-deconstructive" reading of the text and, where applicable, designs of Blake, as well as the poetry of Wordsworth, Coleridge, Byron, Shelley, and Keats, seen from this somewhat novel but not ignoble perspective.
