Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In his late 15th century chronicle (ca 1477-1484), Michael FabriciusFerrarinus (died between 1488-1493), prior of the Carmelite cloister inReggio Emilia, introduced the rumour that an ancient fountain had beenfound super ripam Danuvii (on the banks of the Danube) with thesculpted figure of a sleeping nymph. According to Ferrarinus, thefountain bore a peculiar epigram:HVIVS NYMPHA LOCI, SACRI CVSTODIA FONTIS,DORMIO, DVM BLANDAE SENTIO MVRMVR AQVAE.PARCE MEVM, QVISQVIS TANGIS CAVA MARMORA, SOMNVMRVMPERE. SIVE BIBAS SIVE LAVERE TACE.Many scholars have discussed the impact of the rumour as creating aprototype for Renaissance sculptures of the sleeping nymph in Rome andfor the development of the well-known genre of the sleeping Venus inpainting. Building upon the previous studies, this essay contextualizesthe phenomenon of the sleeping nymph and its textual and artistic Nachlebenfrom the point of view of the locus amoenus as silence. Thisstudy combines iconological, aesthetical-philosophical andanthropological approaches, and contributes to a better understanding ofsleep, voyeurism, water and silence within the context of the nymph'sparticular genius loci.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The meaning of tearing and splitting as a life-, love- andwisdom-generating event (for example, the tearing of the temple curtain)is profoundly rooted in the visual and literary 'bodies' of ancient andChristian thought. The primordial cosmogonic split is always sudden, isalways sharp (like a knife), appears as a flash (sudden and allencompassing) and is experienced through the whole bodily sensorium (inshivering, bliss, sigh, wind, breath). The split is the epiphany ofradical change, revolution and the transition beyond. The Greek deityKairos embodies this mystery. The reach of Kairos can be detected in thetheory of rhetoric (Sophists vs. Aristotle (385-322 BC)), in humanisticpolitics, in postmodern theology and in contemporary time-management.Iconographical studies have treated Kairos's Nachleben inByzantine and Latin visual traditions where the god is conflated withFortuna and Occasio. This essay addresses the impact of Kairos and itsiconographic Nachleben from a literary and historicalperspective, and further considers Kairos as a new art historicalparadigm. Indeed, Kairos can offer us alternative hermeneutics toreconceive the image as chronotopos, as epiphany and as intercession.
