Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a travel adventure set in the legendary French city of Arles. Founded in Roman times, Arles is a UNESCO World Heritage Site located in scenic Provence in the south of France. For the last hundred years it has been an important destination for the countless tourists who arrive in pursuit of the great Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh, who famously spent an intense fourteen months in Arles, painting the most brilliant works of his career (all those sunflowers and quivering landscapes), squabbling with fellow artist Paul Gauguin, guzzling absinthe, and famously cutting off the lobe of his ear, which landed him in the local hospital in the throes of a mental breakdown. Linda Seidel has visited Arles many times, initially to study the splendid medieval church of Saint-Trophime, but eventually to follow in the long shadow of Vincent's passage, which he recorded in numerous paintings and drawings. Together, they make a pair of charming guides, sharing with us the wonders of Arles's Roman amphitheater, which seats 20,000 people and has been in continuous use for two thousand years; the Alyscamps, a Roman cemetery featuring paths still lined with ancient sarcophagi; the Church of St. Trophime with its astonishing Romanesque portal; the Arles Hospital, which has been converted into a museum about Vincent; the cafes and bars where he hung out; new buildings such as the tower by Frank Gehry; and of course the Provençal countryside with its dazzling wildflowers and quaint farms. Ultimately, this is Vincent's story, told as never before through an engagement with the mysterious, culturally rich town that transformed his life and, indeed, the entire course of modern art"--

Book Synopsis Van Gogh, Arles, Murder by : Maurice Beale
Download or read book Van Gogh, Arles, Murder written by Maurice Beale and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with his arrival in Arles in March 1888, a combination of factual and fictitious events relating to Vincent Van Gogh are revealed while the Dutchman goes about creating timeless works of art. A number of drawings and paintings of previously unknown locals are finally afforded names and backgrounds. Prominent amongst these is a portrait of a young girl to whom the artist is especially attracted. When she is found murdered, suspicion falls on Van Gogh. Harassed by both a tireless police inspector and a majority of the citizens of Arles, the painter descends into the madness and despair, culminating in his slicing off part of an ear while remaining sufficiently lucid to identify - and paint - the man he suspects of the crime. Circumstances and characters pertaining to the murder define aspects of Van Gogh's personality, as well as portraying a way of life in nineteenth century France remarkably similar to present day problems in the USA.
Book Synopsis The Rock of Arles by : Richard Klein
Download or read book The Rock of Arles written by Richard Klein and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-05 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Founded 2,600 years ago on a massive limestone eminence, the city of Arles has been the home of Roman emperors and captured slaves, pagan temples and Christian spires, bloody revolutionaries and powerful papists. In The Rock of Arles Richard Klein relays the history of the city as told to him by the Rock, its genius loci, which infallibly remembers every moment of its existence, from the Roman conquest of Gaul to the fall of feudal aristocracy, from the domination of the Catholic Church to the present French representative democracy. The Rock’s contrarian and dissident history resurrects the memory of three of the city’s most radical yet largely forgotten revolutionary minds: Hellenistic philosopher Favorinus, medieval Hebrew poet Kalonymus ben Kalonymus, and subversive aristocrat Pierre-Antoine Antonelle. For the Rock, each figure represents a freethinking current running through Arlesian history which countered the reactionary, bigoted forces that governed the city for fifteen centuries. Erudite, witty, and opinionated, the Rock tells the story of Arles in order to sketch the broader canvas of European history while invoking the city’s possible future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First Synod of Arles was one of the first church bodies to legally meet within the Roman Empire.

This council was the first called by Constantine I the Great, and would be the forerunner for the much larger First Council of Nicaea.

Book Synopsis Second Synod of Arles: 353 AD by : Saturnius of Arles

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This synod, originally called in support of the Arianist heresy, was attended, by two papal legates, Bishop Vincentius of Capua and Bishop Marcellus of Campania. During their tenure over the synod, the legates were tempted into rejecting communion with St. Athanasius, the Archbishop of Alexandria, then the most prominent churchman in Christianity. While the synod refused to condemn Arius and his teachings, its canons remained disputed. The consent of the sitting bishops who attended was ultimately forced out of them by the Emperor Constantius, an Arian himself, who sought to place pressure on the Roman Papacy and the catholic faith.

Book Synopsis Les Picasso d'Arles by : Pablo Picasso
Download or read book Les Picasso d'Arles written by Pablo Picasso and published by Actes Sud Editions. This book was released on 2013 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1971, two years before his death, Picasso offered the Réattu Museum and the city of Arles a collection of 57 drawings that he had produced over a 35-day period. The drawings are among Picasso's last works, and they frequently reprise his familiar figures, summoning up reincarnations, metamorphoses and variations of earlier works. These drawings are also remarkable for their material modesty--Picasso drew on anything lying around his workshop, including pieces of cardboard, packaging wrap, brown paper files and blotter-like supports. The lines are clearly executed in haste, with the fluency of a felt-tip rather than traditional ink. Color is applied with wax crayons, while displaying Picasso's familiar restraint in the range of palette. This French-English bilingual edition presents the full extent of the 1971 donation, and includes a selection of photographic portraits of Picasso by photographers André Villers, Lucien Clergue, Willy Ronis and Robert Doisneau.
