Book Synopsis Skilled Visions by : Cristina Grasseni
Download or read book Skilled Visions written by Cristina Grasseni and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most arguments for a rediscovery of the body and the senses hinge on a critique of “visualism” in our globalized, technified society. This approach has led to a lack of actual research on the processes of visual “enskillment.” Providing a comprehensive spectrum of case studies in relevant contexts, this volume raises the issue of the rehabilitation of vision and contextualizes vision in the contemporary debate on the construction of local knowledge vs. the hegemony of the socio-technical network. By maintaining an ethnographic approach, the book provides practical examples that are both accessible to undergraduate students and informative for an academic audience.
Download or read book Empires of Vision written by Martin Jay and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2014-03-14 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Empires of Vision brings together pieces by some of the most influential scholars working at the intersection of visual culture studies and the history of European imperialism. The essays and excerpts focus on the paintings, maps, geographical surveys, postcards, photographs, and other media that comprise the visual milieu of colonization, struggles for decolonization, and the lingering effects of empire. Taken together, they demonstrate that an appreciation of the role of visual experience is necessary for understanding the functioning of hegemonic imperial power and the ways that the colonized subjects spoke, and looked, back at their imperial rulers. Empires of Vision also makes a vital point about the complexity of image culture in the modern world: We must comprehend how regimes of visuality emerged globally, not only in the metropole but also in relation to the putative margins of a world that increasingly came to question the very distinction between center and periphery.

Book Synopsis Scenes of Seduction by : Jann Matlock
Download or read book Scenes of Seduction written by Jann Matlock and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1994 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jann Matlock's study of prostitution, hysteria, and the novel in nineteenth-century France considers, for the first time, the three topics together with their links to constructions of female marginality and desire. Made increasingly accessible to a large public by inexpensive printing methods, new forms of circulation like the roman-feuilleton, and rising literacy rates among women and workers, the novel became the medium for exchanges over women's bodies and desires. Matlock reveals the coincident traffic of the novel in the subjects of women on the fringe of society - prostitutes, hysterics, and madwomen- and the invitations extended to its new readers to explore new worlds of sexuality and intrigue. In addition, Matlock examines debates on the tolerance of prostitution, sexual continence, the relationship between female sexuality and madness, and the "dangers" of literature by incorporating into her study material from a myriad of archives, including medical case studies, police reports, newspaper editorials, and memoirs. Against this rich background, she discusses the novels of Balzac, Dumas fils, Sand, Soulié, and Sue, many of which were directed at a female audience.
Book Synopsis Seducing Augustine by : Virginia Burrus
Download or read book Seducing Augustine written by Virginia Burrus and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Augustine's Confessions is a text that seduces. But how often do its readers respond in kind? Here three scholars who share a longstanding fascination with sexuality and Christian discourse attempt to do just that. Where prior interpreters have been inclined either to defend or to criticize Augustine's views, Virginia Burrus, Mark Jordan, and Karmen MacKendrick set out both to seduce and to be seduced by his text. Often ambivalent but always passionately engaged, their readings of the Confessions center on four sets of intertwined themes--secrecy and confession, asceticism and eroticism, constraint and freedom, and time and eternity. Rather than expose Augustine's sexual history, they explore how the Confessions conjoins the erotic with the hidden, the imaginary, and the fictional. Rather than bemoan the repressiveness of his text, they uncover the complex relationship between seductive flesh and persuasive words that pervades all of its books. Rather than struggle to escape the control of the author, they embrace the painful pleasure of willed submission that lies at the erotic heart not only of the Confessions but also of Augustine's broader understanding of sin and salvation. Rather than mourn the fateful otherworldliness of his theological vision, they plumb the bottomless depths of beauty that Augustine discovers within creation, thereby extending desire precisely by refusing satisfaction. In unfolding their readings, the authors draw upon other works in Augustine's corpus while building on prior Augustinian scholarship in their own overlapping fields of history, theology, and philosophy. They also press well beyond the conventional boundaries of scholarly disciplines, conversing with such wide-ranging theorists of eroticism as Barthes, Baudrillard, Klossowski, Foucault, and Harpham. In the end, they offer not only a fresh interpretation of Augustine's famous work but also a multivocal literary-philosophical meditation on the seductive elusiveness of desire, bodies, language, and God.
Book Synopsis Faulkner's Artistic Vision by : Ryūichi Yamaguchi
Download or read book Faulkner's Artistic Vision written by Ryūichi Yamaguchi and published by Fairleigh Dickinson Univ Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although William Faulkner's imagination is often considered solely tragic, it actually blended what Faulkner himself called the bizarre and the terrible. Not only did Faulkner's vision encompass both comedy and tragedy; it perceived a latent humor in tragedy and vice versa. As a result, Faulkner's fiction is seldom simply comic or simply tragic. Faulkner's comedy incorporates tragedy and despair, and the humor in his novels may serve as well to intensify as to relieve a tragic or horrific effect. This study examines Faulkner's first nine novels, from Soldiers' Pay to Absalom, Absalom!, showing how humor is used to express theme: how it appears in the action, characters, and discourse of each novel; and how it contributes to the overall effect of each novel. In each case, even in the most pained and angry novels, Faulkner's practice of humor expresses his view that humor is an inseparable element of human experience. Ryuichi Yamaguchi is Professor of English and American literature at the Aichi University in Japan.

Book excerpt: Since the start of the civilization, the men have looked the way wooing the opposite sex, to get a profit from that part, named love, sex, etc. We have heard about histories where teach us to love and to fight for the most wanted; but too we have heard about wars caused for infidelities and acts that show us that the sex is a necessity whereby we can do whatever, even fight until death. But the truly amazing, is that it don't need to provoke fighting between us to attract the opposite sex, keep it faithful and enjoy for the best moments in the life. Seduce to a person it�s a great endeavor for someone, and the warning can be for a lot of months to get the (yes) that more than convinced, compulsorily. Then, had written a lot about seduction�s theme, but this book isn�t like others that is in the market. The art of seduction is the best book that exists about how to attract to the opposite sex, consciously and unconsciously, and �without the need to talk her! Is it sounds possible? Not at all. Everything is based in a perception that we transmit to the others, making us attractive or not, in the face of their eyes.But the brilliant idea for this book isn�t at all f by the author. It was inspirited in a book the more than one thousand five hundred years old, named "the art or war" by Sun Tzu, which, isn�t just a military practice book, too is a treaty that show the biggest strategy to applicate knowledge of human nature in the moments of the confrontation. Today, the Su Tzu�s philosophy has gone more beyond the military limits, apply to the business, to the sports, to the diplomacy and to the personal comportment. For example, a lot of words that we can find written in this book are words that you can find in the Sun Tzu�s book (changing for example, unfriend for the conquest�s objective or warrior for seductive.) The vision that the author had to apply the knowledge of Sun Tzu to the theme of seduction, help him a lot to conquer his actual couple, he took his own tips just when he gave for lost his relationship, but finally he got inspire love to the woman who he had strived. This book isn't just to the men or women, anyone can have it.The core of the philosophy about seduction in in this rule: What drives others to come to you is the prospect of winning. What do you have for someone want to be with you? The opposite, the thing that put off to the other to go to you is the prospect that your low value.What is winning? It's the feel, when someone interest you, for her beauty, social or economic status, charism, etc. there you are looking in that person the possibility to win, and, for that reason, You are been attracted for her value. But here there is a problem. We are always going for objectives that have more value, for that reason we are rejected.This is important: You can't seduce to someone with more value if you can't overcome her in value.For that, this book has key points that have to be considerate before to do some attempt, which will help you to get better attitudes to seduce, directly or indirectly, as well as to value the situation where you are and about it, know how to try with an easy or a difficult objective. Furthermore you will know the importance of friendships with the people that is together to your objective, and how can you make you interesting to shine in your social circuit.The most interesting in an expert seducer is the way that he inspire love, without be inspired to love he first. This is for him emotional intelligent let him get to the action without have damage because just he has to seduce to objectives that he has at his feet. The supreme art of seduction is attracting to the objective without use energies.
Book Synopsis Seduction and Betrayal by : Elizabeth Hardwick
Download or read book Seduction and Betrayal written by Elizabeth Hardwick and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2011-07-13 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vivid and provocative literary criticism of famous women writers from Virginia Woolf to Zelda Fitzgerald by a “gifted miniaturist biographer” (Joyce Carol Oates) The novelist and essayist Elizabeth Hardwick is one of contemporary America’s most brilliant writers, and Seduction and Betrayal, in which she considers the careers of women writers as well as the larger question of the presence of women in literature, is her most passionate and concentrated work of criticism.

Book Synopsis Fields of Vision by : Leslie Devereaux
Download or read book Fields of Vision written by Leslie Devereaux and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2023-04-28 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filmed images dominate our time, from the movies and TV that entertain us to the news and documentary that inform us and shape our cultural vocabulary. Crossing disciplinary boundaries, Fields of Vision is a path-breaking collection that inquires into the power (and limits) of film and photography to make sense of ourselves and others. As critics, social scientists, filmmakers, and literary scholars, the contributors converge on the issues of representation and the construction of visual meaning across cultures. From the dismembered bodies of horror film to the exotic bodies of ethnographic film and the gorgeous bodies of romantic cinema, Fields of Vision moves through eras, genres, and societies. Always asking how images work to produce meaning, the essays address the way the "real" on film creates fantasy, news, as well as "science," and considers this problematic process as cultural boundaries are crossed. One essay discusses the effects of Hollywood's high-capital, world-wide commercial hegemony on local and non-Western cinemas, while another explores the response of indigenous people in central Australia to the forces of mass media and video. Other essays uncover the work of the unconscious in cinema, the shaping of "female spectatorship" by the "women's film" genre of the 1920s, and the effects of the personal and subjective in documentary films and the photographs of war reportage. In illuminating dark, elided, or wilfully neglected areas of representation, these essays uncover new fields of vision. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1995.
