Book Synopsis The Masters of Candlelight by : Christopher Wright
Download or read book The Masters of Candlelight written by Christopher Wright and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Candlelight has fascinated many painters. Some treated it as an experiment to be repeated on occasion, for some it was an interest, and for a few it became an obsession. Surprisingly it is only in recent times that the genius of Geroges de La Tour, Godfried Schalcken and Joseph Wright of Derby has been rediscovered, although all three painters enjoyed considerable reputations in their lifetimes even as specialists of candlelight and night scenes. Many other great painters including such distinguished names as El Greco and Rembradnt used candlelight to express their intentions but this aspect of their art has sometimes gone unnoticed." --back cover
Book Synopsis The Candlelight Master by : Michael Longley
Download or read book The Candlelight Master written by Michael Longley and published by Random House. This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *AN IRISH TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR* 'I can't bear the thought of a world without Michael Longley, yet his poetry keeps hurtling towards that fact more and more urgently as it stretches in an unflinching way beyond comfort or certainty.' So wrote Maria Johnston, reviewing Longley's previous book Angel Hill. Yet The Candlelight Master does not only face into shadows. The title poem sums up the chiaroscuro of this collection, named after a mysterious Baroque painter. Other poems about painters - Matisse, Bonnard - imply that age makes the quest for artistic perfection all the more vital. A poem addressed to the eighth-century Japanese poet, Otomo Yakamochi, says: 'We gaze on our soul-landscapes / More intensely with every year.' The soul-landscape of The Candlelight Master is often a landscape of memory. But if Longley looks back over formative experiences, and over the forms he has given them, he channels memory into freshly fluid structures. His new poems about war and the Holocaust speak to our own dark times. Translation brings dead poets up to date too. The bawdy of Catullus becomes Scots 'Hochmagandy'. Yakamochi and the lyric poets of Ancient Greece find themselves at home in Longley's Carrigskeewaun.

Book Synopsis Murder by Candlelight by : Michael Knox Beran
Download or read book Murder by Candlelight written by Michael Knox Beran and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-08-15 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early nineteenth century, a series of murders took place in and around London which shocked the whole of England. The appalling nature of the crimes—a brutal slaying in the gambling netherworld, the slaughter of two entire households, and the first of the modern lust-murders—was magnified not only by the lurid atmosphere of an age in which candlelight gave way to gaslight, but also by the efforts of some of the keenest minds of the period to uncover the gruesomest details of the killings.These slayings took place against the backdrop of a London in which the splendor of the fashionable world was haunted by the squalor of the slums. Sir Walter Scott, Lord Byron, Thomas De Quincey, Thomas Carlyle, and Percy Bysshe Shelley and others were fascinated by the blood and deviltry of the macabre. In their contemplations of the most notorious murders of their time, they discerned in the act of killing itself a depth of hideousness that we have lost sight of, now living in an age in which murder has been reduced to a problem of social science and skillful detective work. Interweaving these cultural vignettes alongside criminal history, acclaimed author Michael Beran paints a vivid picture of a time when homicide was thought of as the intrusion of the diabolic into ordinary life.
