DISTORTED IDEALS IN GREEK VASE-PAINTING The World of Mythological Burlesque
Cambridge University Press. Very Good in Near Fine dust jacket. 2008. Hardcover. 052189641X . Remainder mark black marker line to top textblock. Else very light shelfwear to book. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; This book examines Greek vase-paintings that depict humorous burlesque and irreverent images of Greek mythology and the gods. Many of the images present the gods and heroes as ridiculous and ugly. While the narrative content of some images may appear to be trivial others address issues that are deeply serious. When placed against the background of the religious beliefs and social frameworks from which they spring these images allow us to explore questions relating to their meaning in particular communities. Throughout we see indications that Greek vase-painters developed their own comedic narratives and visual jokes. The images enhance our understanding of Greek society in just the same way as their more sober siblings in "serious" art. ; 1.04 x 9.31 x 6.34 Inches; 450 pages . Cambridge University Press hardcover

WALTER FRIEDRICH OTTO
IL POETA E GLI ANTICHI DÈI
DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. RIMANENZA DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO. Tratte dalla meditazione matura di Walter F. Otto, queste pagine svelano il carattere eccentrico e solitario della compagine di pensiero dell'autore di Dioniso e degli Dèi della Grecia. Otto vi esplora l'orizzonte mitico-religioso della poesia nell'epoca della modernità mostrando la sua tragica essenza: il desiderio cioè e, insieme, l'incapacità di rivivere l'esperienza della grecità olimpica, di rifarsi epos eroico. Per Otto, religione olimpica è la capacità di accogliere la forza dell'origine in un ordine della forma e del rigore spirituale. Nella modernità non v'è traccia di una simile capacità, c'è evocazione romantica dell'origine o astratta sublimazione della forma: c'è scissione, tragedia. E, tuttavia, nel moderno la poesia vorrebbe ridestare gli antichi dèi, tornare a una rinnovata solidarietà tra mito e culto. Con la poesia di Hòlderlin, sottratta alla profanità, resa «pura» e «pia», il «tragico» vorrebbe porsi in attesa della sua catarsi, farsi profezia del possibile ritorno degli antichi dèi del culto. Ma invano. L'analisi di Otto coinvolge per intero lo stato di scissione del moderno, incapace di trovar scampo e rifugio fuori dal suo sterile dominio.In queste pagine - come scrive Gianni Carchia nell'Introduzione - «un'ascesi anti-tragica e antimoderna, antitragica perché anti-moderna, vuole così alla fine sottrarre per sempre al tempo le figure, nate storicamente ma spiritualmente immortali, degli dèi olimpici. Non più soltanto figure, esse diventano allora gli archetipi, i simboli di un eterno presente».

WALTER PATER
STUDI GRECI. A CURA DI PAOLA COLAIACOMO.
DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO. LIEVI SEGNI DEL TMEPO ALLA COPERTINA. Nell'ultimo scorcio del secolo XIX, Pater inventa un particolare sentimento dell'antico come falsificazione anticipata - palinsesto del moderno. Quasi teatralmente scenario, sullo sfondo del quale l'artista viene visto muovere le sue ombre. Come nei Ritratti immaginari e in Mario Epicureo, anche nei saggi che andarono poi a tornare la raccolta editorialmente denominata Studi greci, egli impegna la sua grande competenza di studioso e di filologo, nonché il suo alto magistero stilistico, in una rivisitazione e revisione del mondo classico in funzione del moderno e delle sue forme. La sua scrittura evocativa, introspettiva, lavora a estrarre narrazione dalla figura mitica, così come dal gruppo scultoreo, facendo di quello che egli chiama studio una forma anticipatrice del romanzo moderno. Inedita per l'Italia la prestigiosa raccolta che presentiamo racchiude saggi dedicati alla poesia e alla mitologia greca da una parte e, dall'altra, alla storia della scultura e dell'architettura greca. II volume, corredato da illustrazioni tratte da materiale iconografico contemporaneo a Pater, comprende i seguenti saggi: Studio di Dionisio; Le Baccanti; Il mito di Demetra e Persefone; Ippolito velato; I primordi della scultura greca; I marmi di Egina; L'età dei vincitori atletici. [...] l'intero mondo, nero e grigio, della scultura antica giunta fino a noi, avrebbe bisogno di essere ritradotto in oro e avorio, se volessimo sentire l'eccitazione che sembra abbiano provato i greci alla presenza di tali oggetti. Walter Pater (Londra 1839-Oxford 1894) saggista e narratore inglese. I frequenti contatti con i preraffaelliti gli diedero modo di approfondire il suo interesse per l'arte e la letteratura. Tra le sue opere oltre ai già citati Mario l'Epicureo (1885) e Ritratti immaginari (1887), ricordiamo: Apprezzamenti (1889), Platone e il platonismo (1893), Il fanciullo nella casa (1894). La Conclusione dei suoi Studi sul Rinascimento (1873) divenne una sorta di manifesto del nuovo edonismo anti-vittoriano, e la sua prosa elegante influenzò un intera generazione di intellettuali. In questi saggi scritti in un arco di tempo di vent'anni, tra il 1875 e il 1894, e apparsi postumi con la denominazione di "Studi greci", Walter Pater (1839-1894) impegna la sua competenza di studioso e di filologo in una rivisitazione del mondo classico in funzione del moderno e delle sue forme. La raccolta che qui presentiamo racchiude saggi dedicati alla poesia e alla mitologia greca da una parte, e alla storia della scultura e dell'architettura greca dall'altra. Il volume è corredato da splendide illustrazioni tratte dal materiale iconografico contemporaneo a Pater. Collections of Essays are anthologies that have been compiled in order to demonstrate the works of a number of essayists. The list of essayists who have been active throughout the world and throughout time, is extraordinary. Descrizione bibliografica Titolo: Studi greci Titolo originale: Greek Studies.

Warner Marina edited and with An Introduction by
Wonder Tales
New York: Farrar Straus & Giroux. New in New dust jacket. 1996. First Publisher Edition. Hardcover. Once upon a time in the Paris of Louis XIV five ladies and a gentleman - all of them urbane aristocrats - seized on the new enthusiasm for "Mother Goose stories" and decided to write some of them down. Telling stories resourcefully and artfully was a key social grace for them and when they wrote down these elegant narratives they consciously invented the modern fairy tale as we still know it today. For this beautiful anthology of six masterpiece Wonder Tales Marine Warner invited the collaboration of five writers with a special sympathy for the French stories they render her in burnished cunning and amusing English. "The White Cat" "The Subtle Princess" "Bearskin" "Starlight" The Counterfeit Marquise" and "The Great Green Worm" are as unforgettable today as they were when they were first published centuries ago. Wonder was the key to the stories and each tale abounds with transformations and magic. Drawings included. ; 16mo - over 5¾ - 6¾" tall . Farrar Straus & Giroux hardcover

Warner Rex Foreword
Encyclopedia of World Mythology
Galahad Books NY 1975. 1st edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. "Every people in the world has its own myths; but it is very obvious that many of their myths are strikingly similar. These similarities may be accounted for by assuming a common racial origin at a very remote period as for example in the case of the Indo-Europeans who are also linked by language. But sometimes are found in the stories of peoples who can have had no geographical or racial connections with each other. Human beings it would seem while unlike each other in many ways have always still more in common and their imagination when confronted with similar events will react to them in much the same way."
