Автор: Escobedo Andrew Название: Volition`s Face: Personification and the Will in Renaissance Literature ISBN: 0268101663 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780268101664 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 104500.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Modern readers and writers find it natural to contrast the agency of realistic fictional characters to the constrained range of action typical of literary personifications. Yet no commentator before the eighteenth century suggests that prosopopoeia signals a form of reduced agency. Andrew Escobedo argues that premodern writers, including Spenser, Marlowe, and Milton, understood personification as a literary expression of will, an essentially energetic figure that depicted passion or concept transforming into action. As the will emerged as an isolatable faculty in the Christian Middle Ages, it was seen not only as the instrument of human agency but also as perversely independent of other human capacities, for example, intellect and moral character. Renaissance accounts of the will conceived of volition both as the means to self-creation and the faculty by which we lose control of ourselves. After offering a brief history of the will that isolates the distinctive features of the faculty in medieval and Renaissance thought, Escobedo makes his case through an examination of several personified figures in Renaissance literature: Conscience in the Tudor interludes, Despair in Doctor Faustus and book I of The Faerie Queen, Love in books III and IV of The Faerie Queen, and Sin in Paradise Lost. These examples demonstrate that literary personification did not amount to a dim reflection of “realistic” fictional character, but rather that it provided a literary means to explore the numerous conundrums posed by the premodern notion of the human will. This book will be of great interest to faculty and graduate students interested in medieval studies and Renaissance literature.

Автор: Ganz Nicholas Название: Graffiti World: Street Art from Five Continents ISBN: 0810980495 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780810980495 Издательство: Abrams Цена: 36790.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание:
Graffiti World, now updated, is the most comprehensive and bestselling survey of graffiti art ever published. The original collection of more than 2,000 illustrations by over 150 artists around the world is joined by a new section devoted to work created in the five years since the book's first edition.
Graffiti has long been a ubiquitous aspect of the urban landscape, since anonymous, largely unsung spray-can art first hit city walls in New York and Philadelphia in the late 1960s. As hip-hop culture spread from America, graffiti became a worldwide phenomenon, emerging in the 1980s as the symbolic artistic language of young people everywhere.
Today's graffiti artists incorporate a variety of mediums, including stickers, stencils, oils, acrylics, and oil-based chalk, as well as an ever-expanding range of social commentary.
This evolution in style and subject matter has guaranteed graffiti's long-lasting influence on art, graphic design, and style around the world.

The stances taken by these leaders were forged from the historic struggles of race relations in America. It was their common belief in the American Dream and efforts to secure their share of that dream that led to the rise of African Americans in the political arena.The labors of these leaders created a legacy which extends from the Nineteenth Century in the State of Illinois to political elevations at the national level in the Twentieth Century. It also highlights the struggles endured by several of these leaders within their respective eras and provides insight into the handoffs which occurred between the leaders at the conclusions of their terms. Their efforts to organize the disenfranchised produced great victories in each era. These victories became the stepping stones for more victories in the succeeding eras. In doing so, these leaders laid a groundwork for perpetual success and a legacy which is second to none.
