Book Synopsis Conquest and Reclamation in the Transatlantic Imagination by : Luz Elena Ramirez
Download or read book Conquest and Reclamation in the Transatlantic Imagination written by Luz Elena Ramirez and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-06-30 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the imperial spectacles and startling reversals of fortune related in William H. Prescott's History of the Conquest of Mexico (1843) and History of the Conquest of Peru (1847), and investigates how these accounts inspired fictional adaptations by George A. Henty, H. Rider Haggard, and George Griffith. The revision of history in the Amerindian adventure both entertained young transatlantic audiences and was a vehicle to attract tourism and investment in countries such as Mexico and Peru. Henty, Haggard, and Griffith, moreover, used their tales of adventure as a platform to impart British values to their readers. Such values compel the characters and narrators of the novels discussed to act as cultural mediators, to acquire indigenous languages and adopt native ways of being, and, in several of the romance adventures under consideration, to marry Mexican or Incan noblewomen. Part I, Conquest, examines George Henty’s By Right of Conquest: Or, With Cortez in Mexico (1891), H. Rider Haggard’s Montezuma’s Daughter (1893), and George Griffith’s Virgin of the Sun: A Tale of the Conquest of Peru (1898). Part II, Reclamation, argues that English re-writings of history work to eclipse the Spanish in Haggard’s Virgin the Sun (1922), Henty’s Treasure of the Incas (1902) and Griffith’s Romance of Golden Star (1897).

Book Synopsis Emil Carlsen : conscious painting by : William Eric Indursky
Download or read book Emil Carlsen : conscious painting written by William Eric Indursky and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-09-12 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, outside a small group of traditional painters, art historians and dealers, Danish-American Impressionist/Realist painter Søren Emile Carlsen's (1848-1932) reputation is almost all but forgotten; an extreme contrast to the nearly "rock star" status he once held with the public and his peers during his lifetime. Carlsen was part of the circle of America's best known painters including William Merritt Chase (1849-1916), Julian Alden Weir (1852-1919), Childe Hassam (1859-1935), and John Henry Twachtman (1853-1902). At his height, Carlsen's paintings commanded the equivalent of as much as $50,000 per canvas-in today's money-during the early 20th-century. Perhaps, it was the Dane's loner demeanor or his obsessive focus on the making of art that aided to his lost reputation with the public. But, it is because of these traits that Carlsen has reached near hero status among today's traditional painters and collectors.

Book Synopsis The Spectralities Reader by : Maria del Pilar Blanco
Download or read book The Spectralities Reader written by Maria del Pilar Blanco and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2013-08-29 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Spectralities Reader is the first volume to collect the rich scholarship produced in the wake of the “spectral turn” of the early 1990s, which saw ghosts and haunting conjured as compelling analytical and methodological tools across the humanities and social sciences. Surveying the past twenty years from an interdisciplinary and cross-cultural perspective, the Reader displays the wide range of concerns spectrality, in its diverse elaborations, has been called upon to elucidate. The disjunctions produced by globalization, the ungraspable quality of modern media, the convolutions of subject formation (in terms of gender, race, and sexuality), the elusiveness of spaces and places, and the lingering presences and absences of memory and history have all been reconceived by way of the spectral. A primer for the wide readership engaged with cultural interpretations of ghosts and haunting that go beyond the confines of the fictional and supernatural, The Spectralities Reader includes twenty-five groundbreaking texts by prominent contemporary thinkers, from Jacques Derrida and Gayatri Spivak to Avery Gordon and Arjun Appadurai, as well as a general introduction and six section introductions by the editors.
