Book Contemporary Art and Multicultural Education

Download or read book Contemporary Art and Multicultural Education written by Susan Cahan and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1996 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary art and multicultural education is the first book of its kind to address the role of art within today's multicultural education. Co-published with the New Museum of Contemporary Art, this beautifully illustrated book provides both theoretical foundations and practical resources for art educators and students, combining exquisite color reproductions, statements from contemporary artists and interviews with notable educators. Absent from multicultural art education is an approach which connects everyday experience, social critique and creative expression with classroom learning; for students from widely-varied backgrounds and differing levels of English comprehension, art becomes a vital means of reflecting upon the nature of society and social existence. To this end, this volume features both works of art and artists' personal statements in English and Spanish with lesson plans which explore topics that connect what students learn in school to what life experiences might reveal.

Book The Calderonian Stage

Download or read book The Calderonian Stage written by Manuel Delgado and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This collection of essays invites the contemporary reader to consider the works of Pedro Calderon de la Barca (1600-81), who became the most important and influential dramatist of the second period of the Spanish Golden Age, just as Lope de Vega (1562-1635) was for the preceding generation. A follower of Lope in his youth, Calderon, as a mature playwright, developed a drama all of his own, a drama that was highly conceptual, tightly knit, symbolic, and, in many cases, spectacular. Calderon's artistry in verbal and visual symbolism made the performance of his works a feast for both the senses and the intellect." "Until now, many of Calderon's critics have focused their attention on how the poetic devices, particularly metaphors and symbols, appearing in his plays represent his philosophy or his ideas. But as some scholars of Spanish Golden Age drama have argued, the study of Calderon's theater must take into account not only the literary text, but also the physical conditions of the stage, the elements used in the representation - decor, costumes, lighting, music - and the house dynamics at each performance. In other words, each play must be considered as a composition of the soul and body, of poetry and spectacle, in which both elements support, complement, and explain one another in performance." "This is the task that has been undertaken by the contributors to this volume. By focusing on the relationship between text and performance, they have highlighted several areas that are often overlooked in traditional text-based approaches. From different perspectives, they show how Calderon gives concrete shape to the concepts and tales from the Bible, theology, mythology, the Corpus Hermeticum, emblematic literature, philosophy, and realities of civic and domestic origin."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

A medida que caminaba el horizonte iba descubriéndose y los valles y bosques, lagos y cascadas, ríos y desiertos, mares y peñascos, ciclos y astros; mostraron a su mirada la excelencia de la soledad del desierto, el murmullo del agua que se desborda en el abismo, la serenidad del lago, la vida frondosa del bosque, el río que como arteria alimenta a la tierra, la mar que guarda misterios y vida, los cielos que son espejismos y creación y los soles que iluminan al cosmos. Todo tenía vida, era refulgente en toda su plenitud; todo guardaba la primitividad de la bondad, el arrebato del amor y la sinceridad de la dádiva." Adalberto Garcia de Mendoza

Book The Cultural Politics of Twentieth century Spanish Theatre

Download or read book The Cultural Politics of Twentieth century Spanish Theatre written by Carey Kasten and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cultural Politics of Twentieth-Century Spanish Theater argues that twentieth-century artists used the Golden Age Eucharist plays called autos sacramentales to reassess the way politics and the arts interact in the Spanish nation's past and present, and to posit new ideas for future relations between the state and the national culture industry. The book traces the phenomenon of the twentieth-century auto to show how theater practitioners revisited this national genre to manifest different, oftentimes opposing, ideological and aesthetic agendas. It follows the auto from the avant-garde stagings and rewritings of the form in the early twentieth century, to the Francoist productions by the Teatro Nacional de la Falange, to postmodern parodies of the form in the era following Franco's death to demonstrate how twentieth-century Spanish dramatists use the auto in their reassessment of the nation's political and artistic past, and as a way of envisioning its future.

  • ISBN : 1463334249
  • Pages : 149 pages

Download or read book Acuarelas Musicales written by Adalberto GarcÍa De Mendoza and published by Palibrio. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart es la expresión, no de una personalidad aislada, sino de un ambiente. Es el ejemplo de la expresión natural, la manifestación del espíritu, espontánea y sin el menor rebuscamiento o alteración. No hay problema revolucionario en la obra de Mozart. La rebeldía de Beethoven, el erotismo de Wagner, la religiosidad de Juan Sebastián Bach, la caracterología de Ricardo Strauss, la languidez romántica de Chopin, la filosofía dubitativa de Schumann, contrastan con la fluidez del pensamiento y de la emoción de Mozart, todos ellos llevan el dolor en el parto, el sentimiento propio sufre los más crueles tormentos. Hay en ellos la excelsitud de la creación y la vulgaridad de la frase. Instantes en que los soles presentan la majestuosidad de la idea con significativa y desbordante claridad. ~Adalberto García de Mendoza
