Book Synopsis Le vergini delle rocce by : Gabriele D'Annunzio
Download or read book Le vergini delle rocce written by Gabriele D'Annunzio and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-07-27 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le vergini delle rocce, in misura più accentuata dei precedenti romanzi di D'Annunzio, si conforma come un vero e proprio poema in prosa con una trama chiaramente subordinata alla poesia in essa contenuta e con tutti i personaggi (ad eccezione del protagonista) immersi in una fissità atemporale. La poesia raggiunge forse i suoi momenti più alti nelle descrizioni dei paesaggi e degli ambienti naturali che fanno da cornice alla vicenda, emblematici di un Meridione profondo, in cui la vita sembra concentrarsi in una valle appartata dal mondo e dominata da imponenti pareti rocciose. Di fondamentale importanza è lo stile oratorio adottato nel testo, elaborato da D'Annunzio in lunghi mesi di lavoro e considerato dal Vate essenziale per il successo del romanzo, sia in Italia che all'estero (Aonia edizioni).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barbara Spackman here examines the ways in which decadent writers adopted the language of physiological illness and alteration as a figure for psychic otherness. By means of an ideological and rhetorical analysis of scientific as well as literary texts, she shows how the rhetoric of sickness provided the male decadent writer with an alibi for the occupation and appropriation of the female body.

Book Synopsis The Influence of Pre-Raphaelitism on Fin de Siècle Italy by : Giuliana Pieri
Download or read book The Influence of Pre-Raphaelitism on Fin de Siècle Italy written by Giuliana Pieri and published by MHRA. This book was released on 2007 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the first comprehensive study of the influence of English Pre-Raphaelitism on Italian art and culture in the late nineteenth century. Analysis of the cultural relations between Italy and Britain has focused traditionally on the special place that Italy had in the British imagination, but the cultural and artistic exchanges between the two countries have been much misunderstood. This book aims to correct this imbalance by placing Pre-Rapahelitism in its European context. It explores the nature of its influence on Italy, how it was transmitted, and how it was manifested, by focusing on the role of Italian Anglophiles, the English communities in Florence and Rome, the writings of Gabriele D'Annunzio, and a number of Italian artists active in Tuscany and Rome. The works of Cellini, Ricci, Gioja, De Carolis, and Sartorio in particular fully demonstrate the impact of Pre-Raphaelitism on the young Italian school of painting which found in the English movement an ideal link with its glorious past on which it could build a new artistic identity. These artists show that English Pre-Raphaelitism was one of the most powerful single influences on fin-de-siecle Italian culture.
Download or read book Textual Intersections written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the multifaceted ways in which textual material in nineteenth-century European cultures intersected with non-literary cultural artefacts and concepts. The essays consider the presence of such diverse phenomena as the dandy, nationhood, diasporic identity, operatic and dramatic personae and effects, trapeze artists, paintings, and the grotesque and fantastic in the work of a variety of writers from France, Germany, Spain, Britain, Russia, Greece and Italy. The volume argues for a view of the long nineteenth century as a century of lively cultural dialogue and exchange between national and sub-national cultures, between ‘high’ and popular art forms, and between different genres and different media, and it will be of interest to general readers and scholars alike.
Book Synopsis The Symbolist Movement in the Literature of European Languages by : Anna Balakian
Download or read book The Symbolist Movement in the Literature of European Languages written by Anna Balakian and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 1984 with total page 735 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Edited by Anna Balakian, this volume marks the first attempt to discuss Symbolism in a full range of the literatures written in the European languages. The scope of these analyses, which explore Latin America, Scandinavia, Russia, Poland, Hungary, Serbia, Czechoslovakia, and Bulgaria as well as West European literatures, continues to make the volume a valuable reference today. As René Wellek suggests in his historiographic contribution, the fifty-one contributors not only make us think afresh about individual authors who are giants, but also draw us to reassess schools and movements in their local as well as international contexts. Reviewers comment that this copious and intelligently structured anthology, divided into eight parts, traces the conceptual bases and emergence of an international Symbolist movement, showing the spread of Symbolism to other national literatures from French sources, as well as the symbiotic transformations of Symbolism through appropriation and amalgamation with local literary trends. Several chapters deal with the relationships between literature and the other arts, pointing to Symbolism at work in painting, music, and theatre. Other chapters on the psychological aspects of the Symbolist method connect in interesting ways to a vision of metaphor and myth as virtually musical notation and an experimental emphasis on the play afforded by gaps between words. The volume is a major contribution to the most significant exponents and essential themes of Symbolism. The theoretical, historical, and typological sections of the volume help explain why the impact of this important movement of the fin-de-siècle is still felt today.

Book Synopsis The Struggle for Life and the Modern Italian Novel, 1859-1925 by : Andrea Sartori
Download or read book The Struggle for Life and the Modern Italian Novel, 1859-1925 written by Andrea Sartori and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-11-22 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores Darwinism in modern Italian literature. In the years between Italy’s unification (1861) and the rise of fascism, many writers gave voice to anxieties connected with the ideas of evolution and progress. This study shows how Italian authors borrowed and reworked a scientific vocabulary to write about the contradictions and the contrasting tensions of Italy’s cultural and political-economic modernization. It focuses, above all, on novels by Italo Svevo, Federico De Roberto and Luigi Pirandello. The analysis centers on such topics as the struggle against adverse social conditions in capitalistic society, the risk of failing to survive the struggle itself, the adaptive issues of individuals uprooted from their family and work environments, the concerns about the heredity of maladapted characters. Accordingly, the book also argues that the hybridization and variation of both narrative forms and collective mindsets describes the modernist awareness of the cultural complexity experienced in Italy and Europe at this time.
Book Synopsis Echoes of Opera in Modern Italian Poetry by : Mattia Acetoso
Download or read book Echoes of Opera in Modern Italian Poetry written by Mattia Acetoso and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-06-24 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twentieth-century Italian poetry is haunted by countless ghosts and shadows from opera. Echoes of Opera in Modern Italian Poetry reveals their presence and sheds light on their role in shaping that great poetic tradition. This is the first work in English to analyze the influence of opera on modern Italian poetry, uncovering a fundamental but neglected relationship between the two art forms. A group of Italian poets, from Gabriele D’Annunzio to Giorgio Caproni, by way of Umberto Saba and Eugenio Montale, made opera a cornerstone of their artistic craft. More than an occasional stylistic influence, opera is rather analyzed as a fundamental facet of these poets’ intellectual quest to overcome the expressive limitations of lyrical poetry. This book reframes modern Italian poetry in a truly interdisciplinary perspective, broadening our understanding of its prominence within the humanities, in the twentieth century and beyond.
Book Synopsis Wingless Victory - A Biography of Gabriele D'Annunzio and Eleonora Duse by : Frances Winwar
Download or read book Wingless Victory - A Biography of Gabriele D'Annunzio and Eleonora Duse written by Frances Winwar and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2011-12-09 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is not a definitive biography for no work that has life as its root can ever be rigidly set. Nor can one claim to have said the last word while there is a creative mind capable of a new idea or an original interpretation. It has been the author’s aim, through exhaustive research and objective handling of newly uncovered facts, to come as close as possible to essential truth, clouded for many years by passion and prejudice, particularly regarding Eleanora Duse, d’Annunzio and Il Fuoco and, later, the Comandante’s role in the First World War. The publication of pertinent material, available for the first time in a biography, may help to reveal the characters in their true light, with all their faults, which were great, and with their virtues, which were greater still.
