Stretching across centuries and styles, this collection includes Rossetti’s haunting sonnet based on Botticelli’s Primavera; Wallace Stevens’s "The Man with the Blue Guitar," a masterful meditation on an iconic painting by Picasso; William Carlos Williams’s joyous interpretations of scenes by Breughel; and Adrienne Rich lending a compassionate voice to the subject of Edwin Romanzo Elmer’s The Mourning Chair.

An introduction to some of the greatest poets and painters in history, this remarkable book makes a perfect gift, offering compelling insights into the worlds of art and literature, and the relationship between the two.
Book Synopsis Pencils Rhetorique by : Judith Dundas
Download or read book Pencils Rhetorique written by Judith Dundas and published by University of Delaware Press. This book was released on 1993 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The painting and the poetry of the Renaissance shared the same goal of imitating nature. English poets of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries frequently underlined the force of ut pictura poesis - the ancient analogy between poetry and painting - by means of ekphrases, or descriptions of works of art, and through metaphors drawn from the visual arts. The present study is concerned with various kinds of allusions and what they can tell us not only about Renaissance poets' attitudes toward the visual arts, but also about their attitudes toward their own art of representation. In their poems lies a neglected source of art criticism. Since, in her view, the language of Renaissance criticism offers our best approach to an understanding of the poetry of the period, Judith Dundas begins her book with Sir Philip Sidney and ends it with John Dryden - the two poet-critics who most clearly enunciate the importance of the analogy between poetry and painting. Between these boundaries are chapters on Shakespeare, Spenser, Chapman, Jonson, a group of seventeenth-century minor poets, and Milton. The order of the chapters is partly chronological and partly thematic - depending on the interest of particular developments in the poets' allusions to the visual arts. The illustrations that accompany the text are chosen to suggest the background of pictorial reality against which the Renaissance poets were writing. They also show the painters' response to the accomplishments of poetry that are, in themselves, a response to nature. In including illustrations, Dundas does not wish to blur the distinction between poetry and painting, since it is in their very difference of medium that the arts achieve their triumphs. These triumphs led to the debate, known as the paragone, about which art is the superior; but, as Dundas notes, the significance of this debate is that it served as a topos for discussing the relationship of art to truth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study addresses itself to the formal (in the topological sense) aspect of literature and literary words, and concludes that if logos (discursive langauge) and mythos (literary language) are indeed contiguous complementary forms, they are then essentially no different from those forms with which the painter or sculptor deals in the formation of his art object.

Book Synopsis A Note, a Word, a Brush by : Poets Unite Worldwide
Download or read book A Note, a Word, a Brush written by Poets Unite Worldwide and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-03-17 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picasso once said, "The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls." In this work, a collection of short poems in a variety of forms that celebrate the arts are presented: poetry, dance, painting, music, sculpture, theatre, among others. Feel the dust lift and wings sprout as you read. Dehavni's poem, 'An Ode To Poetry,' uses classical forms to describe the effect of poetry on a normal human--we grow wings, we learn to turn copper into gold. Similarly, Sinicrope's poem, 'Musicians pass the art of precise execution that springs wings,' shows how music teachers teach their art so their students can "slip wings on listeners' backs." As if wings weren't enough--Tatiana Berdennikova shows how an artist turns a blank canvas into a beautiful painting with her poem, 'The Artist's Brush.' Then Negar Gorji weaves a magic spell with her pen in her poem, 'The Painter.' She reveals the inner passion, turmoil and loneliness of the painter's life. She writes, "Sitting in front of an easel like she's gonna hug it/ Staring long hours at a picture/ That nobody can see...Still, she keeps painting..." Larry Beck reveals the life of a not unhappy poet...a poet that struggles to write. If only Beck had been able to consult with poet Frosini, who explains the true essence of poetry and the role of darkness in bringing this art form to light. Kuncheria shares a poem which describes an ancient Middle Eastern Dance that came to India by way of the silk route, titled, 'Margamkali Dance'. A poem by Billsborough shows us how the classics intersect, how art is really one form branching out. He writes, "Which medium we use is interwoven/ With strands of other Arts we know/ We cannot stop the inter-flow/ Of memories and of our learning./ Our path is coloured by our aptitude/ Only varied by the outer form permitted by its latitude." This collection of 48 poems from poets all over the world is a joy to experience. And be sure to read the elegant and engaging Introduction contributed by Daniel Brick. You will not be disappointed.
Book Synopsis Reading Cy Twombly by : Mary Jacobus
Download or read book Reading Cy Twombly written by Mary Jacobus and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book on the central importance of literary sources in the paintings of Cy Twombly Many of Cy Twombly's paintings and drawings include handwritten words and phrases—naming or quoting poets ranging from Sappho, Homer, and Virgil to Mallarmé, Rilke, and Cavafy. Enigmatic and sometimes hard to decipher, these inscriptions are a distinctive feature of his work. Reading Cy Twombly poses both literary and art historical questions. How does poetic reference in largely abstract works affect their interpretation? Reading Cy Twombly is the first book to focus specifically on the artist’s use of poetry. Twombly’s library formed an extension of his studio and he sometimes painted with a book open in front of him. Drawing on original research in an archive that includes his paint-stained and annotated books, Mary Jacobus’s account—richly illustrated with more than 125 color and black-and-white images—unlocks an important aspect of Twombly’s practice. Jacobus shows that poetry was an indispensable source of reference throughout Twombly’s career; as he said, he "never really separated painting and literature." Among much else, she explores the influence of Ezra Pound and Charles Olson; Twombly’s fondness for Greek pastoral poetry and Virgil’s Eclogues; the inspiration of the Iliad and Ovid’s Metamorphoses; and Twombly’s love of Keats and his collaboration with Octavio Paz. Twombly’s art reveals both his distinctive relationship to poetry and his use of quotation to solve formal problems. A modern painter, he belongs in a critical tradition that goes back, by way of Roland Barthes, to Baudelaire. Reading Cy Twombly opens up fascinating new readings of some of the most important paintings and drawings of the twentieth century.
Download or read book Painted Poetry written by Keila Womack and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-04-21 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Painted Poetry is a collection of the art infused poems of Keila Womack. The Poet pours words of emotion in lines of poetry while bringing the essence of thoughts to life with a visual inspiration of her very own oil paintings. At the young age of 15, Keila found solace in releasing poetic thoughts as well as writing and singing her own lyrics. Writing, as well as painting has been a journey of healing, renewal and hope while walking round the unexpected corners of every day life. In her own words she expresses the need for art as the need for bread, "Being an artist may not pay the bills but it restores the heart, fills an absent mind and gives bread to a hungry soul." Collectively, her vision of art and the sensitivity of literature creates a distinctly unique relationship. "Poetry is in the heart of every human soul. Life breaks the man, his longing and release of words makes his being whole."

Book Synopsis Critical Reflections on Poetry and Painting (2 vols.) by : Jean-Baptiste Du Bos
Download or read book Critical Reflections on Poetry and Painting (2 vols.) written by Jean-Baptiste Du Bos and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-07-15 with total page 837 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Baptiste Du Bos’ Critical Reflections on Poetry and Painting, first published in French in 1719, is one of the seminal works of modern aesthetics. Du Bos rejected the seventeenth-century view that works of art are assessed by reason. Instead, he believed, audience members have sentiments in response to artworks. Their sentiments are fainter versions of those they would feel in response to actually seeing what the work of art imitates. Du Bos was influenced by John Locke’s empiricism and, in turn, had a major impact on virtually every major eighteenth-century contributor to philosophy of art, including Voltaire, Montesquieu, Diderot, Rousseau, Herder, Lessing, Mendelssohn, Kames, Gerard, and Hume. This is the first modern, annotated and scholarly edition of the Critical Reflections in any language.
