Divina Comedia Di Dante

Divina Comedia Di Dante
By:Sebastian Schütze,Maria Antonietta Terzoli
Published on 2014 by Taschen America Llc


Within a dark forest: Dante by Blake: rarely seen illustrations of the Divine ComedyDante Alighieri's Divine Comedy (completed in 1321) is widely considered the greatest work composed in the Italian language and a masterpiece of world literature. On the surface, the poem describes Dante's travels through Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven; but at a deeper level, it represents the soul's journey towards God.In the last few years of his life, Romantic poet and artist William Blake (1757-1827) produced 102 illustrations for Dante's masterwork, from pencil sketches to finished watercolors. Like Dante's sweeping poem, Blake's drawings range from scenes of suffering to light, from horrifying human disfigurement to the perfection of physical form. While faithful to the text, Blake also brought his own perspective to bear on some of Dante's central themes, introducing his own elements of understanding to such vast ideas as sin, guilt, punishment, revenge, and salvation.Today, Blake's illustrations, left in various stages of completion at the time of his death, are dispersed among seven different institutions. This new edition brings the images together once again, alongside excerpts from Dante's masterpiece, in a stunning pairing of two of the finest artistic talents in history. Also included are an introduction to the Divine Comedy and an analysis of Blake's illustrations.

The Art of the Body By:Michael Squire Published on 2011 by I.B.Tauris The classical human body is perhaps the single most important and wide¿]ranging legacy bequeathed to the modern world by antiquity. Not only has it directed the evolutionary trajectory of western art; it has also saturated almost every aspect of the contemporary subconscious, as ideal, anti¿]type and point of departure.

From Byzantine diptych to Hollywood cinema screen, and from Aphrodite to the Venus da Milo, The Art of the Body demonstrates the wide range of cultural ideas and anxieties that were explored by the figure of the body both in antiquity and in the various cult...
