Описание: Contrary to the apocalyptic pronouncements of paper media's imminent demise in the digital age, there has been a veritable surge of creative reimaginings of books as bearers of the literary. From typographic experiments (Mark Z. Danielewski's House of Leaves, Steven Hall's The Raw Shark Texts) to accordion books (Anne Carson's Nox), from cut ups (Jonathan Safran Foer's Tree of Codes) to collages (Graham Rawle's Woman's World), from erasures (Mary Ruefle's A Little White Shadow) to mixups (Simon Morris's The Interpretations of Dreams), print literature has gone through anything but a slow, inevitable death. In fact, it has re-invented itself materially.

Starting from this idea of media plurality, Book Presence in a Digital Age explores the resilience of print literatures, book art, and zines in the late age of print from a contemporary perspective, while incorporating longer-term views on media archeology and media change. Even as it focuses on the materiality of books and literary writing in the present, Book Presence also takes into consideration earlier 20th-century "moments" of media transition, developing the concepts of presence and materiality as analytical tools to perform literary criticism in a digital age. Bringing together leading scholars, artists, and publishers, Book Presence in a Digital Age offers a variety of perspectives on the past, present, and future of the book as medium, the complex relationship of materiality to virtuality, and of the analog to the digital.

Описание:

It is a time of tumultuous change in fifteenth-century Florence. At the crossroads of art, politics, and culture, painter Filippo Lippi struggles against a dark well of sorrow to create luminous paintings that will help usher in the Renaissance.

Orphaned at the age of four, placed in a convent against his will, and now enslaved on a Tunisian pirate ship, Filippo resigns himself to the whims of fate until he discovers the gift within his current plight: freed of his former, narrow identity, his true character is forged.

A story of loss and resilience, of hope wielded against crushing twists of fate, Where the Light Gathers takes you on a sweeping journey from a pirate ship navigating the Mediterranean to the plague as it sweeps through Florence, from charges of treason to church-administered torture and three impossible love affairs.

Find yourself engulfed in the world of Renaissance Italy, and see through the artist's eyes as he creates his greatest masterpieces. Ultimately, Filippo comes to understand that it takes both shadow and light to create form, in life as in art, and that it is the commonplace moments at which the light gathers that both root us and set our course.

Where the Light Gathers interweaves well-researched fact with fiction, bringing to life the man behind the paintings and revealing the reasoning that inspires his most reckless decisions. As Filippo chafes against societal forces and takes dire chances, he ultimately perceives that in the depths of the human heart is found not only the capacity to endure, but the seed of light that illumines the way forward.

If you like historical fiction, art history, political intrigue, and exploring the psychological motives of real-world figures, you will love this novel.

Buy Where the Light Gathers today, and enjoy the precise, lyrical prose that weaves the thread of Filippo's life into the vivid tapestry of an ever-present past.
