Sex Acts in Early Modern Italy: Practice, Performance, Perversion, Punishment
ISBN: 9780754667483 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 302 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Emphasizing the peculiar, the perverse, the clandestine and the scandalous, this volume opens up a critical discourse on sexuality and visual culture in early modern Italy. Contributors consider not just painted (conventional) representations of sexual activities and eroticized bodies, but also images from print media, drawings, sculpted objects and painted ceramic jars. In this way, the volume presents an entirely new picture of Renaissance sexuality, stripping away layers of misconceptions and manipulations to reveal an often-misunderstood world. 'Sex acts' is interpreted broadly, from the...

Re-Membering Masculinity in Early Modern Florence: Widowed Bodies, Mourning and Portraiture
ISBN: 9780754654049 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. From Pliny to Petrarch to Pope-Hennessy and beyond, many have understood the obvious connection between portraiture and commemorative practice. This book expands and nuances our understanding of Renaissance portraiture; the author shows it to be complexly generated within a discourse of male anxiety and pre-mortuary mourning. She argues that portraiture could defer memory loss or, at the very least, pictorially console the subject against his own potentially unmourned death. This book recognizes a socio-cultural anxiety a the fear not merely of death but also of being forgotten a and...

Women, Patronage, and Salvation in Renaissance Florence-Lucrezia Tornabuoni and the Chapel of the Medici Palace
ISBN: 9781409462033 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 314 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Long obfuscated by modern definitions of historical evidence and art patronage, Lucrezia Tornabuoni de' Medici's impact on the visual world of her time comes to light in this book, the first full-length scholarly argument for a lay woman's contributions to the visual arts of fifteenth-century Florence. This focused investigation of the Medici family's domestic altarpiece, Filippo Lippi's Adoration of the Christ Child, is broad in its ramifications. Mapping out the cultural network of gender, piety, and power in which Lippi's painting was originally embedded, author Stefanie Solum challenges...

The Ethics of Ornament in Early Modern Naples: Fashioning the Certosa Di San Martino
ISBN: 9781472419637 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 430 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Carthusian monks at San Martino began a series of decorative campaigns in the 1580s that continued until 1757, transforming the church of their monastery, the Certosa di San Martino, into a jewel of marble revetment, painting, and sculpture. The aesthetics of the church generate a jarring moral conflict: few religious orders honored the ideals of poverty and simplicity so ardently yet decorated so sumptuously. In this study, Nick Napoli explores the terms of this conflict and of how it sought resolution amidst the social and economic realities and the political and religious culture of...

Old Women and Art in the Early Modern Italian Domestic Interior
ISBN: 9781472442130 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Though portraits of old women mediate cultural preoccupations just as effectively as those of younger women, the scant published research on images of older women belies their significance within early modern Italy. This study examines the remarkable flowering, largely overlooked in portraiture scholarship to date, of portraits of old women in Northern Italy and especially Bologna during the second half of the sixteenth century, when, as a result of religious reform, the lives of women and the family came under increasing scrutiny. Old Women and Art in the Early Modern Italian Domestic...

Food and Knowledge in Renaissance Italy: Bartolomeo Scappi's Paper Kitchens
ISBN: 9781409446712 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Though Bartolomeo Scappi's Opera (1570), the first illustrated cookbook, is well known to historians of food, up to now there has been no study of its illustrations, unique in printed books through the early seventeenth century. In Food and Knowledge in Renaissance Italy, Krohn both treats the illustrations in Scappi's cookbook as visual evidence for a lost material reality; and through the illustrations, including several newly-discovered hand-colored examples, connects Scappi's Opera with other types of late Renaissance illustrated books. What emerges from both of these approaches is a new...

Imaging Stuart Family Politics: Dynastic Crisis and Continuity
ISBN: 9781472424051 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 202 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. From conception onwards, Stuart offspring were presented to their subjects through texts, images and public celebrations. Audiences were exhorted to share in their development, establishing affective bonds with the royal family and its latest additions. Yet inviting the public into Stuart domestic affairs exposed them to intense scrutiny and private interactions were endowed with public dimensions. Images of royal children had the potential both to support and to undermine dynastic messages. In Imaging Stuart Family Politics, Catriona Murray explores the promotion of Stuart familial...

Material Bernini
ISBN: 9781472459220 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Bringing together established and emerging specialists in seventeenth-century Italian sculpture, Material Bernini is the first sustained examination of the conspicuous materiality of Bernini's work in sculpture, architecture, and paint. The various essays demonstrate that material Bernini has always been tied (whether theologically, geologically, politically, or in terms of art theory) to his immaterial twin. Here immaterial Bernini and the historiography that sustains him is finally confronted by material Bernini. Central to the volume are Bernini's works in clay, a fragmentary record of a...

Visual Cultures of Foundling Care in Renaissance Italy
ISBN: 9781472457653 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The social problem of infant abandonment captured the public's imagination in Italy during the fifteenth century, a critical period of innovation and development in charitable discourses. As charity toward foundlings became a political priority, the patrons and supporters of foundling hospitals turned to visual culture to help them make their charitable work understandable to a wide audience. Focusing on four institutions in central Italy that possess significant surviving visual and archival material, Visual Cultures of Foundling Care in Renaissance Italy examines the discursive processes...

Genre Imagery in Early Modern Northern Europe: New Perspectives
ISBN: 9781472449146 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Exploring the rich variety of pictorial rhetoric in early modern northern European genre images, this volume deepens our understanding of genre's place in early modern visual culture. From 1500 to 1700, artists in northern Europe pioneered the category of pictures now known as genre, portrayals of people in ostensibly quotidian situations. Critical approaches to genre images have moved past the antiquated notion that they portray uncomplicated 'slices of life, ' describing them instead as heavily encoded pictorial essays, laden with symbols that only the most erudite contemporary viewers and...

Making and Moving Sculpture in Early Modern Italy
ISBN: 9781472460905 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 274 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In recent years, art historians have begun to delve into the patronage, production and reception of sculptures-sculptors' workshop practices; practical, aesthetic, and esoteric considerations of material and materiality; and the meanings associated with materials and the makers of sculptures. This volume brings together some of the top scholars in the field, to investigate how sculptors in early modern Italy confronted such challenges as procurement of materials, their costs, shipping and transportation issues, and technical problems of materials, along with the meanings of the usage,...

The Enduring Legacy of Venetian Renaissance Art
ISBN: 9781472472779 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 212 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Venetian artistic giants of the sixteenth century, such as Giorgione, Vittore Carpaccio, Titian, Jacopo Sansovino, Jacopo Tintoretto, Paolo Veronese, and their contemporaries, continued to shape artistic development, tastes in collecting, and modes of display long after their own practices ended. The robust reverberation of the Venetian Renaissance spread far beyond the borders of the lagoon to inform and influence artists, authors, and collectors who spent very little or even no time in Venice proper. The Enduring Legacy of Venetian Renaissance Art investigates the historical resonance of...

Faith, Gender and the Senses in Italian Renaissance and Baroque Art: Interpreting the Noli Me Tangere and Doubting Thomas
ISBN: 9781472444738 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 308 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Taking the Noli me tangere and Doubting Thomas episodes as a focal point, this study examines how visual representations of two of the most compelling and related Christian stories engaged with changing devotional and cultural ideals in Renaissance and Baroque Italy. This book reconsiders depictions of the ambiguous encounter of Mary Magdalene and Christ in the garden (John 20:11-19, known as the Noli me tangere) and that of Christ's post-Resurrection appearance to Thomas (John 20:24-29, the Doubting Thomas) as manifestations of complex theological and art theoretical milieus. By focusing on...
