Book Synopsis Voyage Into Substance by : Barbara Maria Stafford
Download or read book Voyage Into Substance written by Barbara Maria Stafford and published by Mit Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 645 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voyage into Substance reopens the whole complex question of how nature was perceived and penetrated during the Enlightenment - a time when artist-scientists trekked across Egyptian deserts, astronomer-mariners navigated the Polar seas, and meteorologist-aeronauts "sailed" through the atmosphere's "waves," all seeking to discover and record the non-human likeness of the phenomenal world. By examining the popular, multi-national illustrated narratives and atlases of the period, the book relates the voyagers' attentive, firsthand mode of seeing and precise copying of the enduring and the ephemeral features of the environment (before the advent of photography) to the major philosophical, scientific, and aesthetic debates of the time. Arguing that these accounts disclose an anti-Picturesque tradition of representation, the book opens new doors to establish the persistence of a "plain," that is, a style of landscape depiction that culminates in 19th-century realism. Voyage into Substance analyzes a vast repertory of geological, mineralogical and biological treatises concerning the self-expressive physiognomy of the earth and shows them to be important precursors and allies of the non-fictional travel narrative. Intertwining art, literature, philosophy, geography, and the history of science, with the aid of 304 plates, the book adds significantly to all these disciplines and is a unique contribution to the field of art and architectural history as well as to modern intellectual history. Barbara Maria Stafford is Professor of Art History at the University of Chicago. Publication of this book was partially funded by the Millard Meiss Fund of the College Art Association of America and by the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voyage : Artificial Intelligence (AI) is now at the heart of a cognitive revolution, an irresistible force that is redefining what it means to be intelligent. Long confined to futuristic dreams and dystopian fiction, AI has crossed a once-unimaginable threshold, challenging our understanding of intelligence, creativity, and emotion. Domains once reserved for the human mind, such as art and humor, are now the province of machines that not only emulate but surpass our cognitive abilities. This emergence challenges our ontological supremacy and pushes us toward the last stronghold of human uniqueness: consciousness. Author : Thibault Verbiest is an international lawyer. He has always dedicated himself to the interactions between law, finance, and technology. He is an adjunct professor at Skema Business School (Paris) and the author of numerous works, including two science fiction novels.

Book Synopsis Voyage of the Sable Venus by : Robin Coste Lewis
Download or read book Voyage of the Sable Venus written by Robin Coste Lewis and published by Knopf. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This National Book Award-winning debut poetry collection is a "powerfully evocative" (The New York Review of Books) meditation on the black female figure through time. Robin Coste Lewis's electrifying collection is a triptych that begins and ends with lyric poems meditating on the roles desire and race play in the construction of the self. In the center of the collection is the title poem, "Voyage of the Sable Venus," an amazing narrative made up entirely of titles of artworks from ancient times to the present—titles that feature or in some way comment on the black female figure in Western art. Bracketed by Lewis's own autobiographical poems, "Voyage" is a tender and shocking meditation on the fragmentary mysteries of stereotype, juxtaposing our names for things with what we actually see and know. A new understanding of biography and the self, this collection questions just where, historically, do ideas about the black female figure truly begin—five hundred years ago, five thousand, or even longer? And what role did art play in this ancient, often heinous story? Here we meet a poet who adores her culture and the beauty to be found within it. Yet she is also a cultural critic alert to the nuances of race and desire—how they define us all, including her own sometimes painful history. Lewis's book is a thrilling aesthetic anthem to the complexity of race—a full embrace of its pleasure and horror, in equal parts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Voyage in Consciousness is an adventure in self-exploration, revealing a path to peace that emerges from the simple act of attending to one's own ordinary experience. All human beings are adventurers. We are all exploring what it is to be and know, to live and die, to sleep and awaken. Each of us has his or her own path to follow. Every one of us is destined to realize a peculiar enlightenment and make his or her unique contribution to the brilliance of creation. Within the spectrum of human experience great treasures wait to be discovered. The work of only a few explorers is not enough to unearth them. These treasures are vast, but undiscoverable without the deepest appreciation of our joy. As more of us become involved in this exploration, the greater our discoveries shall be. The greater the peace of humankind, the greater the ecstasy of all living beings. A Voyage in Consciousness is both an invitation and a unique set of tools that facilitate experiential exploration. The information presented comes from the author's own discoveries gleaned from more than 20 years of experiential research. A Voyage in Consciousness doesn't just tell stories about experiential exploration, it is an adventure which each reader navigates in his or her own way. The book includes detailed, guided exercises specifically designed to facilitate the reader's own journey.
