Trade Paperback. Condition: Fine. First Edition. 114 Pages. As New book with no noted defects. Interior text pages are flawless. Aby M. Warburg (18661929) is recognized not only as one of the century's preeminent art and Renaissance historians but also as a founder of twentieth-century methods in iconology and cultural studies i…n general. Warburg's 1923 lecture, first published in German in 1988 and now available in the first complete English translation, offers at once a window on his career, a formative statement of his cultural history of modernity, and a document in the ethnography of the American Southwest. This edition includes thirty-nine photographs, many of them originally presented as slides with the speech, and a rich interpretive essay by the translator. The presentation grew out of Warburg's 1895 encounter with the Hopi Indians, an experience he claimed generated his theory of the Renaissance. In this powerfully written piece, Warburg investigates the relationships among ethnography, iconography, and cultural studies to develop a multicultural history of modernity. As an independent scholar in Hamburg, Warburg led the intellectual circle that included Erwin Panofsky and Ernst Cassirer, pioneers in the investigation of cultural history through the analysis of visual art and the interpretation of symbols. When Warburg wrote this exposition, however, he was a mental patient in a Kreuzlingen sanatorium. Warburg's vulnerable state of mind lends urgency and passion to his discussion of human rationality and cultural demons. Contents: Prefatory Note, List of Illustrations, Aby Warburg Images Fromm the Region of the Pueblo Indians of North America, Notes, Michael Steinberg Aby Warburg's Kreuzlingen Lecture A Reading, and Notes.

Its discoverer suggested that it derived from the lost second book of Aristotleâs "Poetics," which inaugurated the systematic study of comedy, but it was soon condemned as an ignorant compilation verging on forgery, and thus matters stood until the first publication of "Aristotle on Comedy" in 1984. Richard Jankoâs edition of the text is accompanied by a facing translation, interpretive essays, reconstruction and commentary. The book is now made available in paperback for the first time, with a new Preface and additional bibliography. -- REVIEW: "This is a splendidly vigorous book. Janko presents his case with enthusiasm and panache. He is forthright in expressing his own views and in denouncing the errors of other scholars. His arguments, some of them complex, are invariably clear - and often deliciously clever. Whatever the truth about TC [Tractatus Coislinianus], Jankoâs conclusions must be taken seriously. . No reader will be able to stay silent about this fascinating book." ----Jonathan Barnes, "Phronesis" -- with a bonus offer--; 520-Janko; Aristotle ; Janko, Richard ( translator, Essay ) - facing translation, interpretive essays, reconstruction and commentary.
