Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The epigram is certainly one of the most intriguing, while at the same time most elusive, genres of Neo-Latin literature. From the end of the fifteenth century, almost every humanist writer who regarded himself a true "poeta" had composed a respectable number of epigrams. Given our sense of poetical aesthetics, be it idealistic, postidealistic, modern, or postmodern, the epigrammatic genre is difficult to understand. Because of its close ties with the historical and social context, it does not fit any of these aesthetic approaches. By presenting various epigram writers, collections, and subgenres from the fifteenth to the seventeenth century, this volume offers a first step toward a better understanding of some of the features of humanist epigram literature.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Raphael's Poetics applies strategies of interpretation implicit in antique poetry to the visual art of the Renaissance, concentrating on Raphael's Roman works and their cultural context. Until recently, scholarly discussion was dominated by the application of Renaissance literary theory to visual arts, obscuring the fact that Renaissance humanists who contributed to literary theory were, in the first instance and almost without exception, poets rather than theorists. To counter the tendency towards theory, the hermeneutic rules implicit in their poetry and thus the poetry itself is brought to the fore by this study as a hermeneutical tool. By focusing on the interaction between the work of art and its public, Rijser offers innovative interpretations of canonical works and important insights into the cultural history of the early modern period. Reconstructing a visual grammar and defining the context in which Raphael's art functioned, this study illuminates contemporary significances that have since been lost.…

Hardback. Condition: New. Framing Classical Reception Studies contains a representative number of analytic and synthetic contributions by scholars from diverse parts of the field of Classical Reception Studies. Together, they afford a synoptic view and typology of an extremely large and continuously diversifying discipline. Attentive to questions such as what, by whom, in what contexts and to what ends Classics have functioned and are functioning in our culture, all contributors ask themselves from what conceptual or disciplinary frame they approach the reception of the cultures of classical Greek and Roman antiquity. Within this questioning format, the book also contains suggestions for future agendas of research, and forcefully argues for the political, cultural and cognitive relevance of classical receptions in the Academy.…

Paperback. Condition: New. In Raphael?s Poetics, David Rijser applies the strategies of close reading and interpretation usually reserved for studying poetry to Raphael?s most famous works, including the Stanza della Segnatura. The book develops a visual grammar to decode the symbols within Raphael?s paintings and parse the meaning they would have had for a sixteenth-century audience. A masterful piece of art criticism that brings a wholly new perspective to the scholarly discussion, Raphael?s Poetics is a book of singular importance in the study of High Renaissance art and poetry.…

Amsterdam University Press 2017 Softcover, 503pp., 16x23.5cm., geïllustreerd in kleur en z/w., in goede staat (zeer lichte gebruikssporen). ISBN 9789462986183. Onze cultuur ontwikkelt zich in een voortdurende confrontatie met de klassieke cultuur. Dat geldt voor literair werk, dat voortdurend teruggrijpt op werken van klassieke schrijvers en denkers als Homerus en Plato. Het geldt ook voor materiële cultuur, zoals het Parthenon en Pantheon. In Een telkens nieuwe Oudheid onderzoekt cultuurhistoricus David Rijser met virtuoze pen diverse aspecten van de hedendaagse cultuur en hun verbintenis met het klassieke verleden. Welke dialoog voeren we met de Oudheid? Wat hebben de klassieken ons cultureel en politiek te vertellen, en wat zeggen wij terug? In het eerste deel bespreekt Rijser zeven classics en de reden waarom zij nog altijd populair zijn. Vervolgens bekijkt hij de manier waarop de Renaissance terug begon te kijken naar de Oudheid. Hij sluit af met hedendaagse cultuur, zoals de tv-serie The Sopranos, die ondanks de schijn van het tegendeel alles met de klassieken te maken blijkt te hebben.…
