The nouveau roman and Writing in Britain After Modernism - Adam (departmental Lecturer In English Guy - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

The nouveau roman and Writing in Britain After Modernism - Adam (departmental Lecturer In English Guy - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

The nouveau roman and Writing in Britain After Modernism recovers a neglected literary history. In the late 1950s, news began to arrive in Britain of a group of French writers who were remaking the form of the novel. In the work of Michel Butor, Marguerite Duras, Robert Pinget, Alain Robbe-Grillet, Nathalie Sarraute, and Claude Simon, the hallmarks of novelistic writing--discernible characters, psychological depth, linear chronology--were discarded in favour of other aesthetic horizons. Transposed to Britain''s highly polarized literary culture, the nouveau roman became a focal point for debates about the novel. For some, the nouveau roman represented an aberration, and a pernicious turn against the humanistic values that the novel embodied. For others, it provided a route out of the stultifying conventionality and conformism that had taken root in British letters. On both sides, one question persisted: given the innovations of interwar modernism, to what extent was the nouveau roman actually new?This book begins by drawing on publishers'' archives and hitherto undocumented sources from a wide range of periodicals to show how the nouveau roman was mediated to the British public. Of central importance here is the publisher Calder & Boyars, and its belief that the nouveau roman could be enjoyed by a mass public. The book then moves onto literary responses in Britain to the nouveau roman, focusing on questions of translation, realism, the end of empire, and the writing of the project. From the translations of Maria Jolas, through to the hostile responses of the circle around C. P. Snow, and onto the literary debts expressed in novels by Brian W. Aldiss, Christine Brooke-Rose, Eva Figes, B. S. Johnson, Alan Sheridan, Muriel Spark, and Denis Williams, the nouveau roman is shown to be a central concern in the postwar British literary field.

French Art Nouveau Ceramics - Paul Arthur - Bog - Editions Norma - Plusbog.dk

French Art Nouveau Ceramics - Paul Arthur - Bog - Editions Norma - Plusbog.dk

This book is a unique and comprehensive illustrated dictionary of French Art Nouveau Ceramics.A census conducted in 1901 indicated the existence of some 209 producers of pottery in France, employing a total of around 5,800 full-time labourers. This great activity stimulated a parallel development in the arts, including the search for new expressions in art pottery, giving birth to l''art nouveau, a great and eclectic synthesis of a number of other art styles. Largely through British arts and crafts, and the work of artists like the Manxman Archibald Knox, it reached far back into the prehistory of Celtic art. To this were added later medieval elements, through the gothic revival championed by William Morris.The need for renewal, breaking away from the neo-Classical and academia, which was the realm of the upper-class culture, was largely theorised by John Ruskin, who searched elsewhere for inspiration. Thus did British art nouveau also partake of Chinese and Japanese styles, though never in so forceful a manner as did the French aesthetic. France, on the one side, looked back to the swirling and frivolous eighteenth century Rococo, primarily through the influence of the Goncourt brothers, Edmond and Jules, influential aesthetes of the mid-nineteenth century.The book focuses especially on artists working stoneware or grès, faience, and terracotta. It aims to provide a general survey of the many artists working in these areas, and includes brief accounts of the ceramics work of sculptors and painters whose wider output is already well known.

New York Nouveau - Sara Kippur - Bog - Stanford University Press - Plusbog.dk

New York Nouveau - Sara Kippur - Bog - Stanford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Postwar French writers were at the vanguard of global literary innovation—from the experimental minimalism of the Nouveau Roman to the literary games of the OuLiPo—but less often appreciated is the extent to which they worked closely with US editors and translators, published actively with American presses, and often theorized transatlantic connections within their work. In this exciting new work, Sara Kippur proposes a new French literary history that traces the deep connections between postwar literary experimentalism and the New York publishing industry, compellingly arguing that US-based editors, publishers, producers, professors, and translators crucially intervened to shape French literature. While Kippur attends closely to well-known writers such as Marguerite Duras, Samuel Beckett, Eugène Ionesco, Georges Perec, and Alain Robbe-Grillet, she also amplifies the voices of those who have been less visible, though no less relevant, including women whose contributions have not received proper credit but who helped to foster a sense of new possibilities for twentieth-century French writing. With these untold histories, stitched together in this book through new archival discoveries from special collections and personal archives on both sides of the Atlantic, Kippur begins to dismantle rigid notions of canonicity, authorship, and national literature.

Pascal Paoli a Maria Cosway - - Bog - Liverpool University Press - Plusbog.dk

Pascal Paoli a Maria Cosway - - Bog - Liverpool University Press - Plusbog.dk

Le fonds documentaire qui est a la source de cet ouvrage est conserve dans le Fondazione Maria Cosway a Lodi, en Italie. Il comprend essentiellement un corpus de cent vingt-trois lettres et billets datant de 1782 a 1803, qui constitue la correspondance active du chef corse Pascal Paoli (1725-1807) a Maria Cosway (1760-1838), l'epouse du celebre peintre miniaturiste Richard Cosway. Chaque document, dont l'original est en italien, est retranscrit, traduit et annote; l'edition comporte en outre une chronologie historique, une chronologie des lettres et un index. Cette correspondance eclaire sous un jour nouveau la biographie de Pascal Paoli au temps de son sejour en Angleterre, periode qui constituait une lacune importante dans ce domaine. Elle precise la nature des liens entre le chef corse et la famille Bonaparte. Envers sa correspondante, l'auteur se revele malicieux, spirituel, affectueusement ironique, moralisateur, ferme sur le decorum qu'il croit devoir maintenir, mais aussi traverse parfois par le doute, la tristesse et le decouragement, voire l'angoisse metaphysique. Le portrait moral qui en ressort est celui d'un personnage amateur de litterature, de peinture et de musique, plus sensible, plus vivant, moins fige que l'image litteraire heroisee et 'monumentale' du 'champion de la liberte' que James Boswell a laisse a la posterite dans son Account of Corsica and Memoirs of Pascal Paoli. On percoit aussi la riche et attachante personnalite de la destinaire de ces lettres. Le seul fait que Maria Cosway ait eu le souci de conserver ces documents temoigne moins de sa vanite que de son intelligence. Un autre interet, et non des moindres, est la toile de fond, esquissee par les nombreuses allusions a la pleiade de celebrites du monde des lettres et des arts que Paoli cotoyait. Cette evocation illustre a quel point Londres etait alors un ardent et brillant foyer de culture.

Le Poison et le remede - Sylviane Leoni - Bog - Liverpool University Press - Plusbog.dk

Le Poison et le remede - Sylviane Leoni - Bog - Liverpool University Press - Plusbog.dk

Poison pour Platon et les peres de l'Eglise, catharsis pour Aristote, le theatre occidental trouva plus facilement une place dans la vie quotidienne de la cite que dans la reflexion des elites intellectuelles. Pendant plus de deux mille ans, loin des applaudissements et des murmures des spectateurs, se noua ainsi une longue 'histoire des mots', solidaire d'une histoire de la pensee car le discours sur le theatre fut aussi, tout au long des siecles, discours sur l'homme et sa place dans le monde, discours sur la mimesis, sur le savoir et le pouvoir des mots. Au cours de la premiere moitie du dix-huitieme siecle, le debat sur la legitimite des spectacles fait apparaitre les permanences, les ruptures, les ambiguites d'une epoque partagee entre la verite des theologiens et celle des philosophes, entre un modele ascetique d'humanite et une aspiration a un solide bonheur terrestre, entre un savoir fonde sur les textes et une raison fille de l'experience. Contempteur des sciences et des arts, Rousseau ajoute encore a la complexite de ce debat. Si, en Italie, la prudence a l'egard de l'Eglise et des valeurs chretiennes fut plus grande qu'en France, cette polemique revele neanmoins, dans les deux pays, un dix-huitieme siecle bien-pensant, soucieux de theatre moral et vertueux, ce que n'attestent pas, on le sait, d'autres textes de la meme periode. Querelles ou les mots regnent en maitres, la querelle sur la legitimite du theatre attire donc egalement l'attention sur l'opacite que pouvait avoir le document ecrit a cette epoque: opacite a l'egard des faits, des idees, mais aussi des interrogations etrangeres a la culture rhetorique a laquelle il appartenait souvent.

Le Corbusier - William Curtis - Bog - Phaidon Press Ltd - Plusbog.dk

An expanded edition on the master of Modernism, Le Corbusier , by award-winning architectural historian William J. R. Curtis. Originally published in 1996 to critical fanfair, scholar William J.R. Curtis has re-issued his classic text with extensive new scholarship and contemporary research that continues the high standard of the original. Presented chronologically with a clear narrative, Curtis has worked tirelessly not only to document Le Corbusier''s key projects in detail but to contextualize them within the architect''s overarching philosophy of urbanism and art and the pervading culture of Le Corbusier''s time. With full access to the renowned Le Corbusier archive, Curtis'' text is lavishly illustrated with new photographs, plans and original sketches and a fresh new design. Praise for the first edition: "This is not only the best single work on Le Corbusier - a model of scholarship, erudite yet eminently readable - it is also an invaluable analysis of the creative architectural process. It should be read and re-read by every student of architecture." - Building Design "William J. R. Curtis is the best architectural historian writing in the English language." - Chicago Tribune

Le Corbusier: The Built Work - Richard Pare - Bog - Monacelli Press - Plusbog.dk

Le Corbusier: The Built Work - Richard Pare - Bog - Monacelli Press - Plusbog.dk

The most thoroughgoing survey of nearly all of Le Corbusier''s extant projects, beautifully photographed and authoritatively detailed Le Corbusier is widely acknowledged as the most influential architect of the twentieth century. As extensively researched and documented as his works are, however, they have never been exhaustively surveyed in photographs until now. Photographer Richard Pare has crossed the globe for years to document the extant works of Le Corbusier - from his first villas in Switzerland to his mid-career works in his role as the first global architect in locations as far-flung as Argentina and Russia, and his late works, including his sole North American project, at Harvard University, and an extensive civic plan for Chandigarh, India. Le Corbusier: The Built Work provides numerous views of each project to bring a fuller understanding of the architect''s command of space, sometimes surprising use of materials and color, and the almost ineffable qualities that only result from a commanding synthesis of all aspects of design. With an authoritative text by scholar and curator Jean-Louis Cohen, Le Corbusier: The Built Work is a groundbreaking opportunity to appreciate the master''s work anew.

Francois Le Moyne - Professor Jean Luc Bordeaux - Bog - Silvana - Plusbog.dk

Francois Le Moyne - Professor Jean Luc Bordeaux - Bog - Silvana - Plusbog.dk

First Painter to the king in 1736 for only a few months before his tragic death, François Le Moyne had a career as short as it was prolific. Teacher of Charles-Joseph Natoire and François Boucher, and contemporary of Antoine Watteau and Jean-François de Troy, he reached the height of his glory with his Apotheosis of Hercules painted between 1732 and 1736 on the immense ceiling of the Salon d’Hercule, located between La Chapelle Royale and the royal apartments of the Château de Versailles. After so many years spent in oblivion, Le Moyne is finally recognised today as one of the major artists of the 18th century, exerting a seminal influence on the following generations. Nearly 40 years after his first monograph devoted to the painter, Professor Jean-Luc Bordeaux proposes a renewed survey of the oeuvre of François Le Moyne (1688–1737). Bordeaux analyses Le Moyne’s contributions to the French rococo as well as lesser-known aspects of his artistic production and career. With almost 140 paintings and 250 drawings, this new catalogue raisonné is an extended edition of the one published in 1984, with significant additions. It also includes an appendix of around 20 pages that describes a considerable amount of works by Le Moyne, now lost but attributed to him by famous collectors of the time and 18th century experts such as Gersaint, Mariette, Paillet and Remy.

The Observations of Gilles le Bouvier - - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The Observations of Gilles le Bouvier - - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Translated from the medieval French, this book is a landmark English-language version of the work of Gilles le Bouvier. As the senior herald to King Charles VII, the monarch on the French throne as they advanced to victory in the Hundred Years’ War between England, France and their allies, Gilles le Bouvier was close to the king during a decisive, formative period in France’s history, as well as being a well-known figure from the period. The Observations of Gilles le Bouvier thus delivers a rare glimpse of a singular medieval worldview, offered through the constrained voice of a skilled diplomat carefully and occasionally sharing his opinions to audiences composed of his social superiors.During his lifelong career as a messenger and a diplomat in Charles’s service, Gilles le Bouvier, known as The Berry Herald, travelled far and wide on his master’s behalf. This translated work is a compilation of his observations as he moved around Western Europe, the Mediterranean states and the Black Sea region. Throughout the text, Gilles le Bouvier:* assessed or commented on the lands encompassed by his extensive travels* discussed the peoples he claimed to have encountered, from the honourable Turks to the ‘bad Catholics’ of southern Italy* surveyed the military capabilities of France’s neighbours, allies, enemies and neutral statesExpertly introduced and contextualised by Gideon Brough and Sophie Patrick, this book provides a compelling and unique historical source for understanding life in late-medieval Europe through the eyes of someone who lived it.
