Book Synopsis Classic Myths in Art (Classic Reprint) by : Julia de Wolf Addison
Download or read book Classic Myths in Art (Classic Reprint) written by Julia de Wolf Addison and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Classic Myths in Art The pictures of the old masters deal generally with religious subjects, but at the approach Of the Renaissance the revived interest in classic art and culture led many Of the artists to paint scenes from the mythology Of the Greeks. It is with these pic tures, rather more than with ancient sculpture, that this volume will concern itself. Certain gods and heroes naturally became favourites with the painters, while others were hardly ever represented. There fore, one cannot study mythology systematically from the pictures Of the Renaissance, but one can, by studying the pictures Of the Renaissance, discover what features in the Old legends had predominated and survived with perennial interest for the later students of classic myth.

Book excerpt: "A Book of Myths" deals in a most entertaining manner with the mythology of Greece and Rome and many other noted lands. Added to the pleasure of the story there is the lure of the legend and the spell of old ways and customs. Not only many of the most celebrated are retold, but also many of the less well-known tales. The aim of the author, it is stated, has been to simplify for those who are not erudite scholars the stories of mythology, to which constant reference is made not only in classic, but in modern poetry, and to direct the attention of readers to poems which are not already known to them. Included are tales of Prometheus, Pygmalion, Orpheus, Perseus, King Midas, Pan, the Lorelei, Baldur and many more.
Book Synopsis Flying Too Close to the Sun by : Diane Fortenberry
Download or read book Flying Too Close to the Sun written by Diane Fortenberry and published by Phaidon Press Limited. This book was released on 2018-05-11 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major survey to reveal the ways in which Classical mythology has inspired art throughout the last 2,500 years From the films of Woody Allen and the Coen Brothers to Margaret Atwood's books and Arcade Fire's songs, Classical Greek and Roman myths continue to be a source of cultural inspiration. The struggles of heroes, both triumphant and tragic, with gods, monsters, and fate, exert a particular grip on our imagination. Visual artists have long expressed and reworked these foundational stories. This is the first book to unite myth-inspired artworks by ancient, modern, and contemporary artists, from Botticelli and Caravaggio to Jeff Koons and Damien Hirst.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Stories of Classic Myths, Vol. 1 of 6 Nobody to-day believes in these deities of class ical mythology. Yet every one, to have an ordi nary education, must learn about them. Why is it, when there are so many other things to know and to learn, that it is necessary for us all to study this old dead religion? It is because these Old stories are so beautiful in themselves that the greatest artists and writ ers ever since have been inspired by them and have constantly represented or referred to them in their works. If we would understand the most beautiful paintings and sculptures, the greatest literature of the world, or even the conversation of educated people, we must know our Greek gods and heroes. They have grown into the common thought of all time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

On the left was the ocean with its mermaids sporting among the waves, riding on the backs of fishes, or sitting on the rocks drying their sea green hair.
