Download or read book Rousseau's Venetian Story written by Madeleine B. Ellis and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2019-12-01 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1966. This book is primarily a literary study of Rousseau's account of his diplomatic experiences in Venice, contained in book 7 of the Confessions and written in 1769. The author analyzes Rousseau's methods of achieving an artistic rendering of psychological truth in autobiography, as exemplified in his treatment of the events of 1742–1749. Professor Madeleine Ellis contributes to an understanding of Rousseau as a creative artist and positions him vis-à-vis the classical and romantic movements. Ellis collates the text of the Confessions with contemporary correspondence and other documents to show how discrepancies between the two have artistic implications. These implications lead her to define Rousseau's principles and methods as a man of letters and the interrelations of art and truth in his memoirs. In revealing that Rousseau, the memorialist, gives an artistic rendering of psychological truth, Ellis shows Rousseau's attitude toward truth. She does this by following a path of analysis unexplored by previous critics but indicated by Rousseau himself when he says, "It is the story of my soul that I have promised . . . I record not so much the events of my life as the state of my soul as they happened." Ultimately, the objective of this study is to illustrate the artistic means—literary and rhetorical—employed by Rousseau and their implications for the truth he proposed.

Download or read book Rome, Ravenna, and Venice, 750-1000 written by Veronica West-Harling and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-20 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The richest and most politically complex regions in Italy in the earliest middle ages were the Byzantine sections of the peninsula, thanks to their links with the most coherent early medieval state, the Byzantine empire. This comparative study of the histories of Rome, Ravenna, and Venice examines their common Byzantine past, since all three escaped incorporation into the Lombard kingdom in the late 7th and early 8th centuries. By 750, however, Rome and Ravenna's political links with the Byzantine Empire had been irrevocably severed. Thus, did these cities remain socially and culturally heirs of Byzantium? How did their political structures, social organisation, material culture, and identities change? Did they become part of the Western political and ideological framework of Italy? This study identifies and analyses the ways in which each of these cities preserved the structures of the Late Antique social and cultural world; or in which they adapted each and every element available to them to their own needs, at various times and in various ways, to create a new identity based partly on their Roman heritage and partly on their growing integration with the rest of medieval Italy. It tells a story which encompasses the main contemporary narratives, documentary evidence, recent archaeological discoveries, and discussions on art history; it follows the markers of status and identity through titles, names, ethnic groups, liturgy and ritual, foundation myths, representations, symbols, and topographies of power to shed light on a relatively little known area of early medieval Italian history.

Book excerpt: A collection of three historical novels by Donna Russo Morin, now available in one volume! Gilded Summers: Pearl and Ginevra's lives couldn't be more different - one living a life of luxury while the other works as a servant. But a shared passion for art ignites an unlikely friendship that must be kept hidden from Pearl's controlling mother. As they navigate their way through a society that seeks to suppress them, the girls must decide who they want to be and what they're willing to do to break free - even if it means resorting to murder. The Courtier of Versailles: Set in the dazzling world of Louis XIV's court at Versailles in 1682, "The Courtier of Versailles" follows the story of Jeanne Yvette Mas du Bois, a young woman who craves knowledge, purpose, and adventure. Her thirst for independence leads her to train in the art of the sword with her uncle Jules. When she saves the life of a Musketeer and is mistaken for a man, Jeanne becomes Jean-Luc and enters an inner circle where she discovers a plot to assassinate the Queen of France. In her double life, Jeanne is in a powerful but increasingly dangerous position as she navigates the intrigues of court and her own heart. This lush and detailed historical novel is filled with unforgettable characters and secrets waiting to be uncovered. The Glassmaker's Daughter: In 17th century Venice, the secret of Murano glassmaking is fiercely guarded, and the price of revealing it is death. But Sophia Fiolario, a talented glassmaker, must hide her skills because she is a woman. When a powerful nobleman proposes to her, Sophia faces a difficult choice: accept and give up her passion, or risk everything to continue her craft. As she navigates the treacherous waters of Venetian society, Sophia's fate becomes entwined with that of Galileo Galilei and his revolutionary invention. With danger lurking around every corner, Sophia must decide what she is willing to sacrifice for love, family, and the art she holds dear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: She was the only woman in Venice who knew the secret...and it made her a criminal. The Murano glassmakers of Venice are celebrated and revered. But now three of them are dead, killed for attempting to leave the city that both prizes their work and keeps them prisoners. For in the 17th century, the secret of their craft must, by law, never leave Venetian shores. Yet there is someone who keeps the secret while defying tradition. She is Sophia Fiolario, and she, too, is a glassmaker. Her crime is being a woman. Sophia knows her family would be crushed by scandal - or worse - if the truth of her knowledge and skill with the glass were revealed. But there has never been any threat...until now. A wealthy nobleman with strong connections to the powerful Doge has requested Sophia's hand in marriage, and her refusal could draw dangerous attention. Yet to accept, to no longer make the glass, would devastate her. If there is an escape, Sophia intends to find it. Between creating precious glass parts for one Professore Galileo Galilei's astonishing invention and attending lavish parties at the Doge's Palace, Sophia crosses paths with influential people, including one who could change her life forever. But in Venice, every secret has its price. Soon, Sophia must decide how much she is willing to pay for her family, the glass, and love.
