reflections: the american collection of the columbus museum of art adds a novel and provocative element to the library of art museum collection catalogs. in the traditional manner, reflections features selected works—more than 125—from the museum’s collection, accompanied by concise essays by scholars of art who reflect on and respond to the distinctive aspects of each work.
to this customary approach, the editors have added what they term intersections essays: an examination of a well-known work of art from the differing perspectives of two authors—most of whom are not art historians. for instance, acclaimed writer joyce carol oates provides her perspective on george bellows and is joined by laurie bellows booth, an objects conservator and the painter’s granddaughter. the book includes ten of these compelling essays, including contributions by such authors as adam gopnik and alan trachtenberg.
the heart is an iconic symbol in the medieval and early modern european world. in addition to being a physical organ, it is a key conceptual device related to emotions, cognition, the self and identity, and the body. the heart is read as a metaphor for human desire and will, and situated in opposition to or alongside reason and cognition. in medieval and early modern europe, the "feeling heart" - the heart as the site of emotion and emotional practices - informed a broad range of art, literature, music, heraldry, medical texts, and devotional and ritual practices. this multidisciplinary collection brings together art historians, literary scholars, historians, theologians, and musicologists to highlight the range of meanings attached to the symbol of the heart, the relationship between physical and metaphorical representations of the heart, and the uses of the heart in the production of identities and communities in medieval and early modern europe.
(来源indiebound) (1)sissi's world explores the cultural foundations for the endurance of the sissi legends and the continuing fascination with the beautiful empress: a bavarian duchess born in 1837, the longest-serving austrian empress, and the queen of hungary who died in 1898 at the hands of a crazed anarchist.
despite the continuing fascination with "the beloved sissi," the habsburg empress, her impact, and legacy have received scant attention from scholars. this collection will go beyond the popular biographical accounts, recountings of her mythic beauty, and scattered studies of her well-known eccentricities to offer transdisciplinary cultural perspectives across art, film, fashion, history, literature, and media.
