Download or read book La Villa written by Bartolomeo Taegio and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-09-21 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published in 1559 and appearing here for the first time in English, La Villa is a rare source of Renaissance landscape theory. Written by Bartolomeo Taegio, a Milanese jurist and man of letters, after his banishment (possibly for murder, Thomas E. Beck speculates), the text takes the form of a dialogue between two gentlemen, one a proponent of the country, the other of the city. While it is not a gardening treatise, La Villa reflects an aesthetic appreciation of the land in the Renaissance, reveals the symbolic and metaphorical significance of sixteenth-century gardens for their owners, and articulates a specific philosophy about the interaction of nature and culture in the garden. This edition of the original Italian text and Beck's English translation is augmented with notes in which Beck identifies numerous references to literary sources in La Villa and more than 280 people and places mentioned in the dialogue. The introduction illuminates Taegio's life and intellectual activity, his obligations to his sources, the cultural context, and the place of La Villa in Renaissance villa literature. It also demonstrates the enduring relevance of La Villa for architecture and landscape architecture. La Villa makes a valuable contribution to the body of literature about place-making, precisely because it treats the villa as an idea and not as a building type.

Incorporating ingestibles such as fat, chocolate, water, gelatin, fish, sugar, tea, honey, and beeswax into various works.

Book Synopsis Cesare Pavese and Antonio Chiuminatto by : Mark Pietralunga
Download or read book Cesare Pavese and Antonio Chiuminatto written by Mark Pietralunga and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2007-12-15 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Italian poet, novelist, literary critic and translator Cesare Pavese (1908-1950) is generally recognized as one of the most important writers of his period. Between the years 1929 and 1933, Pavese enjoyed a rich correspondence with his Italian American friend, the musician and educator Antonio Chiuminatto (1904-1973). The nature of this correspondence is primarily related to Pavese's thirst to learn about American culture, its latest books, its most significant contemporary writers, as well as its slang. This volume presents an annotated edition of Pavese and Chiminatto's complete epistolary exchange. Mark Pietralunga's brilliant introduction provides historical and cultural context for the letters and traces Pavese's early development as a leading Americanist and translator. The volume also includes an appendix of Chiuminatto's detailed annotations and thorough explanations of colloquial American terms and slang, drawn from the works of Sinclair Lewis, Sherwood Anderson, and William Faulkner. A lively and illuminating exchange, this collection ultimately corroborates critical opinion that America was the igniting spark of Pavese's literary beginnings as a writer and translator.

Book excerpt: Al tempo dei tempi, quando ogni cosa era di bronzo — e, anche, i cuori e le facce degli uo-mini — scivolò all'onor del mondo un pargoletto, destinato dalla benigna sorte a mostrare esempio di rare virtù. Sin dai primi vagiti, difatti, l'eccelso personaggio, che doveva poi, col nome di Macario, vivere e morire diffondendo intorno a sé un acuto odore di santità, volle appalesare con chiari segni la propria missione opponendo un fiero corruccio agli osceni allettamenti dei sensi e rifiutando il latteo alimento sol perché offertogli in una coppa di carne nuda da una poco timorata nutrice. Con irati gesti e mugolii disapprovatori egli respinse, dunque, ben tre volte la coppa: e, forse, avrebbe prematuramente rinunciato a un'esistenza, che si rivelava piena di tentazioni peccaminose e di scandali, se la materna sollecitudine non si fosse affrettata a licenziar sui due piedi la proprietaria di un calice così dolce al tatto e così amaro per l'anima, e a comprare un biberone, che porgesse so-stegno e cibo alle ancor deboli forze del bimbo.

Book Synopsis Travellers and Cosmographers by : Joan-Pau Rubiés
Download or read book Travellers and Cosmographers written by Joan-Pau Rubiés and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Joan-Pau Rubiés brings together here eleven studies published between 1991 and 2005 that illuminate the impact of travel writing on the transformation of early modern European culture. The new worlds that European navigation opened up at the turn of the 16th century elicited a great deal of curiosity and were the subject of a vast range of writings, much of them with an empirical basis, albeit often subtly fictionalized. In the context of intense literary and intellectual activity that characterized the Renaissance, the encounters generated by European colonial activities in fact produced a remarkable variety of images of human diversity. Some of these images were conditioned by the actual dynamics of cross-cultural encounters overseas, but many others were elaborated in Europe by cosmographers, historians and philosophers pursuing their own moral and political agendas. As the studies included here show, the combined effect was in the long term dramatic: interacting with the impact of humanism and of insurmountable religious divisions, travel writing decisively contributed to the transformation of European culture towards the concerns of the Enlightenment. The essays illuminate this process through a combination of general discussions and the contextual analysis of particular texts and debates, ranging form the earliest ethnographies produced by merchants travelling to Asia with Vasco da Gama, to the writings of Jesuit missionaries researching idolatry in India and China, or thinkers like Hugo Grotius seeking to explain the origin of the American Indians.

Book Synopsis Postal Culture by : Gabriella Romani
Download or read book Postal Culture written by Gabriella Romani and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2013-12-31 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nationalization of the postal service in Italy transformed post-unification letter writing as a cultural medium. Both a harbinger of progress and an expanded, more efficient means of circulating information, the national postal service served as a bridge between the private world of personal communication and the public arena of information exchange and production of public opinion. As a growing number of people read and wrote letters, they became part of a larger community that regarded the letter not only as an important channel in the process of information exchange, but also as a necessary instrument in the education and modernization of the nation. In Postal Culture, Gabriella Romani examines the role of the letter in Italian literature, cultural production, communication, and politics. She argues that the reading and writing of letters, along with epistolary fiction, epistolary manuals, and correspondence published in newspapers, fostered a sense of community and national identity and thus became a force for social change.
