Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the days of pastoral, nomadic peoples, long before railroad tracks and modern roads ever existed, it was the rivers, lakes and seas that provided the means of transportation, irrigated the fields, and offered a natural way for people to keep in touch. The Volga boatmen, singing with great gusto as they accompanied heavy loads of wheat and other cargo along the inland canals of Russia, left a legacy of songs that are still popular today. It is little wonder that Russian painters found such powerful inspiration in the rivers, lakes and seas that flow so abundantly throughout the vast country. A symbol of life, of purity, and of the regeneration of body and soul, water also conveys a sense of danger, the threat of overwhelming force. For Russian poets, writers, and artists, it was often the sight and sound and symbolism of water that inspired them to express a whole range of feelings.

Book Synopsis Riverscapes and National Identities by : Tricia Cusack
Download or read book Riverscapes and National Identities written by Tricia Cusack and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-02 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Painted riverscapes such as Claude Monet’s impressions of the Seine, Isaak Levitan’s Volga views, or Thomas Cole’s Hudson scenery became iconic not least because they embodied nationalist ideas about place and about culture. At a time when nationalism was taking root across Europe and the United States, the riverscape played an important role in transforming the abstract idea of the nation into a potent visual image. It not only offered a picture of the nation’s physical character, but through aspects such as style, the figures portrayed, and the nature of the implied spectator, it presented a cultural ideal. In this highly original book, Tricia Cusak explores significance of painted riverscapes to the creation of national identities in nineteenth and early twentieth century Europe and America. Focusing on five rivers, the Hudson, the Volga, the Seine, the Thames, and the Shannon, the author outlines the history of the development of national landscapes, elaborating on the distinctive nature of riverscapes. Drawing on the symbolic potential of rivers to represent life and time, the riverscape provided a metaphor for the mythic stream of national history flowing unimpeded out of the past and into the future.

Book Synopsis Modernism from the Margins by : Chris Wigginton
Download or read book Modernism from the Margins written by Chris Wigginton and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2020-10-01 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Modernism from the Margins” is an accessible and challenging account of the 1930s writing of two of the most popular authors of the time. Locating the work of Louis MacNeice and Dylan Thomas historically, the book questions standard accounts of the period as Auden-dominated and offers an inclusive and theoretical account of the engagement of both writers with the varieties of Modernism. It is the first reading at length of either MacNeice’s or Thomas’s work in the light of literary theory, and one of only a handful of texts to look at the writing of the 1930s in these terms.This book is an important contribution to contemporary discussions of both of these writers, and of the general issues of modernism, postmodernism, literary identity, and cultural identity it raises.
