This book explores the full range of the art he has produced during the past five decades: original drawings for cartoons and illustrated books as well as prints and posters.

Monteverdi's Last Operas: A Venetian Trilogy
ISBN: 9780520249349 / Angielski / Twarda / 2007 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Claudio Monteverdi (1567-1643) was the first important composer of opera. This innovative study by one of the foremost experts on Monteverdi and seventeenth-century opera examines the composer's celebrated final works--Il ritorno d'Ulisse (1640) and L'incoronazione di Poppea (1642)--from a new perspective. Ellen Rosand considers these works as not merely a pair but constituents of a trio, a Venetian trilogy that, Rosand argues, properly includes a third opera, Le nozze d'Enea (1641). Although its music has not survived, its chronological placement between the other two...

ISBN: 9780520254268 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 710 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Ellen Rosand shows how opera, born of courtly entertainment, took root in the special social and economic environment of seventeenth-century Venice and there developed the stylistic and aesthetic characteristics we recognize as opera today.

Because opera was new in the seventeenth century, the composers (most...

Myths of Venice: The Figuration of a State
ISBN: 9780807856635 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Over the course of several centuries, Venice fashioned and refined a portrait of itself that responded to and exploited historical circumstance. Never conquered and taking its enduring independence as a sign of divine favor, free of civil strife and proud of its internal stability, Venice broadcast the image of itself as the Most Serene Republic, an ideal state whose ruling patriciate were selflessly devoted to the commonweal. All this has come to be known as the "myth of Venice."
Exploring the imagery developed in Venice to represent the legends of its origins and legitimacy, David... Over the course of several centuries, Venice fashioned and refined a portrait of itself that responded to and exploited historical circumstance. Never...

The Invention of Painting in America
ISBN: 9780231132961 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 246 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Struggling to create an identity distinct from the European tradition but lacking an established system of support, early painting in America received little cultural acceptance in its own country or abroad. Yet despite the initial indifference with which it was first met, American art flourished against the odds and founded the aesthetic consciousness that we equate with American art today. In this exhilarating study David Rosand shows how early American painters transformed themselves from provincial followers of the established traditions of Europe into some of the most innovative and...

Readying Cavalli's Operas for the Stage: Manuscript, Edition, Production
ISBN: 9781409412182 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 440 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. After more than three centuries of silence, the voice of Francesco Cavalli is being heard loud and clear on the operatic stages of the world. The coincidence of productions at La Scala (Milan) and Covent Garden (London) in the same month (September 2008) of two different operas signals a new stage in the recovery of these extraordinary works, confined until now to special venues committed to 'early music'-opera festivals, conservatory, and university productions. The works of the composer who is credited with having invented the genre of opera as we know it are finally enjoying a renaissance....

ISBN: A780231084260 / Angielski / Twarda / 1994 / 191 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 1-3 dni roboczych. Stan bardzo dobry - książka była czytana, ale jeszcze długo posłuży innym czytelnikom. Ma ślady używania - otwierania i kartkowania, rysy, zabrudzenia. Wygląda jak książka, którą wypożyczasz w bibliotece.

The author argues that Renaissance painters developed perspective not only as a technical matter, but also to declare a stand in relation to church and state.

Recognized in Japan as a connoisseur, collector, and proprietor of a famous folk art shop in Tokyo, Tawara Yusaku returned to painting late in life and had a single show in London before his death in 2004.

Tawara's artistic vision was highly influenced by Buddhist concepts of cosmology and space. His philosophy revolved around the idea that the universe is in a constant state of flux - that flux itself is the stuff of the universe. The impermanent bunching...
