Commentary and Ideology: Dante in the Renaissance
ISBN: 9780822312819 / Angielski / Twarda / 1992 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. Dante's "Divine Comedy" played a dual role in its relation to Italian Renaissance culture, actively shaping the fabric of that culture and, at the same time, being shaped by it. This productive relationship is examined in "Commentary and Ideology," Deborah Parker's thorough compendium on the reception of Dante's chief work. By studying the social and historical circumstances under which commentaries on Dante were produced, the author clarifies the critical tradition of commentary and explains the ways in which this important body of material can be used in interpreting Dante's poem.

ISBN: 9780521781664 / Angielski / Twarda / 2000 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Bronzino's stature as one of the great painters of the Florentine Renaissance has long been recognized. By contrast, his literary achievements as a poet have been neglected.

Found in every walk of life, both real and imagined, sycophants surround us. But whether we grumble about sycophancy or grudgingly tolerate it as a price of getting along in a complex society, we rarely examine it closely. This book humorously considers that slavish art from the historical past to our current political environment, and particularly through the revealing lens of literature. Some of the grandest examples of yes-men appear in these pages--from Dante's flatterers and Dickens's Uriah Heep to Kellyanne... Suck-up. Ass-kisser. Brownnoser. Bootlicker. Lickspittle. Toadeater...
