About this title

Synopsis

Examines modern construction, deconstruction, and reconstruction of Renaissance literary and artistic works and forms, such as Andy Warhol's serialized images of the Mona Lisa. Using comparative and contrastive close readings of a few Renaissance masterpieces and some of their paradigmatic modern caricatures, the author ponders the object of modern satire, and whether or not Renaissance norms and forms have value and are relevant in today's world. No index. Distributed by ISBS. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
