Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Furze the Cruel" by John Trevena is a captivating portrayal of Cornwall's rural life, delving deep into the intricacies of human nature amidst its breathtaking landscape. Through the lens of love, betrayal, and redemption, Trevena intricately weaves a tale of character development, highlighting the clash between tradition and progress in a community bound by loyalty and adversity. Set against the backdrop of Cornwall's rugged terrain, the novel explores themes of resilience and cruelty, as characters navigate the challenges of their environment while grappling with their own inner conflicts. Trevena's masterful storytelling captures the essence of rural life, painting a vivid picture of a community shaped by its traditions and the ever-changing forces of modernity. As the characters confront betrayal and hardship, they are forced to confront their own limitations and prejudices, ultimately finding redemption in acts of courage and compassion. Through its richly drawn characters and evocative landscape, "Furze the Cruel" offers readers a poignant reflection on the complexities of human nature and the enduring power of love and loyalty in the face of adversity.

Book excerpt: In Antwerp in the summer of 2018 the MAS, in collaboration with the Rubens House, will be organizing a first-ever monographic exhibition of the forgotten female artist Michaelina Wautier (1614-89). She was born in Mons but developed her career in Brussels, where she was working in around 1650. The artist maintained contacts with the court of the Archduke Leopold Wilhelm of Austria who had four of her works in his collection. We know of some thirty paintings and one drawing by her hand. More than a third of these are signed in full and dated. Wautier painted masterful historical pieces, incisive portraits, endearing genre scenes and tranquil flower arrangements. There is no doubt that she displayed a ground-breaking versatility. Challenging themes, masterly techniques and a grand scale are all characteristic of her work. All her pieces were produced between 1643 and 1659. Her masterpiece is undoubtedly The Triumph of Bacchus held at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna. Michaelina Wautier appears in the painting as a seminude bacchante and is the only one of the figures present to look directly at the viewer.

This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Titian, Colonna and the Renaissance Science of Procreation demonstrates that two major monuments of Italian Renaissance culture - Bellini's and Titian's famous series of mytho-poetical paintings for the camerino of Duke Alfonso d'Este of Ferrara, and Francesco Colonna's Hypnerotomachia Poliphili - were conceived as mnemonic or pedagogical devices aimed at educating the reader/beholder in the medical science of reproductive physiology and the maintenance of sexual health. It is further argued that the learned courtier Mario Equicola, who conceived the pictorial program of Duke Alfonso's camerino, had read Colonna's text and was extensively inspired by its prior literary argument. The study is organized in two parts, intimately interrelated. The first part is a study of Alfonso d'Este's camerino, with a general introduction, individual chapters on each of Bellini's and Titian's four pictorial "bacchanals," and a conclusion proposing a new and more accurate reconstruction of the layout of the room, also including a completely new way of interpreting the ensemble. The second part of the study concerns Colonna's Hypnerotomachia Poliphili, again beginning with its own introductory essay and advancing a completely new interpretation of the text. The brief conclusion brings the insights of the two sections together, clarifying the historical relationship between the pictorial and literary works and explaining their larger cultural significance. Emphasizing Equicola's use of the Hypnerotomachia as a model for pictorial invention, the author reveals how Titian's remarkably sensuous paintings and Colonna's erotically-charged romance are related by their common reference to the neo-Aristotelian medical theory of the "libidinal seasons," and by corollary themes of marriage and sexual consummation. This peculiar intersection of cultural themes came to prominence in the context of a courtly world in which medical science was increasingly brought to bear on the problem of dy

Book excerpt: The narrator of "Tenebrae" inhabits a decaying, desolate mansion in the remote and wild countryside with his younger brother and their mad old uncle, driven insane by abuse of opium and alcohol. This nameless narrator is a morbid young man who passes most of his time in a room painted all black, poring over arcane manuscripts dealing with the mysteries of death, while sipping garishly coloured liquors brewed by his uncle or cups of coffee flavoured with arsenic. When he falls in love with a neighbour, he looks forward to marrying her and trading his life of despondency for one of joy. Perhaps unsurprisingly, though, she finds him rather unpleasant company and instead falls in love with his brother. Driven to murderous jealousy, he resolves upon a brutal crime. But after the consummation of his terrible act, he finds himself haunted by a huge, monstrous spider. Is it a delusion brought on by incipient madness? the reincarnated soul of his murdered victim, returned for vengeance? or does it foretell a fate even more horrifying than can be possibly imagined? Published in 1898, at the end of a decade in which English writers explored the literary possibilities of the Gothic with such characters as Dorian Gray, Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Dracula, and The Beetle, Ernest G. Henham's weird horror novel "Tenebrae" is reminiscent of the works of Poe. Perhaps unequalled in its extreme darkness and gloom, and yet at times grimly, though possibly unintentionally, hilarious, "Tenebrae" remains one of the strangest productions of this fertile literary period. This newly typeset edition includes the unabridged text of the first edition, as well as an introduction and notes by Gerald Monsman, the foremost scholar of Henham (1870-1946), who later published under the name John Trevena. Also featured is a reproduction of the cover of the incredibly scarce first edition.
