Eve's Daughter/ Modern Woman: A Mural by Mary Cassatt

Sally Webster


Eve's Daughter/ Modern Woman: A Mural by Mary Cassatt Sally Webster Book DescriptionOften regarded as merely the creator of sentimental images of mothers and children or an expatriate heavily influenced by Impressionism, Mary Cassatt is not typically regarded as an artist of radical convictions. In Eve's Daughter/Modern Woman , Sally Webster reevaluates these dismissals with a historical, aesthetic, and symbolist analysis of Cassatt's unique venture into the male-dominated realm of large-scale mural painting, Modern Woman . Commissioned for the Woman's Building at Chicago's 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, Modern Woman also stood as a personal and professional manifesto. This book undertakes a complete overview of Cassatt's mural, synthesizing a wide variety of interpretations and original observations to present the first complete treatment of the work. Webster connects the symbolism of the painting to Cassatt's life as a woman artist and a member of the Parisian avant-garde, and to the history of woman's emancipation.

Трилогия "Книга о друзьях" - последняя из крупных произведений Генри Миллера, уже в семидесятые годы рискнувшего подтвердить свой статус не "гения и классика", но "гениального хулигана от литературы". Результатом стали причудливая "Хроника утраченного времени" - от бруклинского детства писателя и до его знаменитого "нью-йоркского периода" - и оглушительный скандал в прессе, шокированной откровениями Миллера и одновременно восхищенной его литературным мастерством…...

Hapless Intent

R.J. McGuire


Hapless Intent R.J. McGuire Book Description Hapless Intent is a pathetic and sometimes cathartic string of pieces devoted to life?s mishaps and wonders. Told through a collection of poems and essays, Rj McGuire offers an emotional release from everyday life. Not particularly happy or stunning, the pieces lean on one another, supported by strong words and immersed in a selfish pride. The ego of the Creator overshadows each work in an attempt to validate the emotions that have surfaced. Hapless Intent presents itself not as a story but as time passed. A juvenile work largely hoping to free itself from the misery of its own existence, it screams beneath your skin and surfaces as painful memories often can, to deal not through healing but harsh exposure. Hapless Intent holds up, but not without trying to fall down. книги, книжный магазин, интернет-магазин Book Description Hapless Intent is a pathetic and sometimes cathartic string of pieces devoted to life?s mishaps and wonders.
