‎Futuristic Fiction, Utopia, and Satire in the Age of the Enlightenment. Samuel Madden's 'Memoirs of the Twentieth Century' (1733)‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 460 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:10 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503606026.‎

‎Summary Published anonymously in 1733, Memoirs of the Twentieth Century is one of the earliest futuristic novels known in Anglophone and Euro-American literature. It foregrounds an acceleration of history brought about by an increasing degree of global interconnectedness, and the exclusion of prophetism and astrology as credible ways to know the future. The work of Samuel Madden, an Irish writer and philanthropist of Whig sympathies, it consists of a collection of diplomatic letters composed in the 1990s, which the narrator claims were brought to him from the time to come by a supernatural entity. Through these correspondences, twentieth-century world scenarios are spread out before the reader, in which British naval power rules the waves and international commerce, while the transnational scheming of the Jesuits threatens the independence of weaker European courts. This book - which includes a study followed by an annotated edition of the text - assesses the cultural significance of this literary work, as an apt observatory on how historical time as a cultural construction was shaped, during the eighteenth century, by new forms of transnational circulation of information, and by the dubious space carved out in European culture by seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century debates on the nature of historical knowledge. Through and by means of the Memoirs case study, this volume aims to contribute to a wider cultural history of the future and speculative fiction. The novel's ironic distancing of beliefs considered to be superstitious and absurd - such as divination techniques and occult and magical disciplines - offers an exceptional testimony to the negotiation of the boundaries of verisimilitude and credibility within a religious enlightenment.

‎Inside Out: Gender and Ageing Agency in Urban and Non-urban Religious Spaces in Antiquity‎

‎, Brepols, 2026 Hardback, Pages: 373, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:88 b/w, 87 col., 11 tables b/w., Languages: English, Italian. ISBN 9782503617060.‎

‎Summary Religious spaces in Antiquity could be urban (located in a densely populated area), suburban (within a day's walk of the city), or even extra-urban (located far outside the city walls, and away from the hustle of densely populated areas). They also served very different purposes, with urban sanctuaries often serving local socio-political dynamics, while extra-urban spaces were often founded to allow meditation - or for the exercise of political control over a particular territory. But while the importance of different religious spaces has long been known, up to now, very little attention has been paid to the activities of women and children within these religious spaces. This volume aims to investigate the role that these actors played in Antiquity, both in urban and non-urban sanctuaries and in funerary contexts, in order to see how they fitted into this sacral environment, and in turn, how such sanctuaries were shaped by their presence. Different chapters within the volume explore key questions such as: can religious experiences shape urban landscapes? can urban space influence religious experiences and activities? and what role did women and children play in shaping and linking religious activities and spaces? The result is a far-reaching volume that seeks to highlight the hitherto unrecognized role of women and children in shaping the social, economic, sacral, and even political landscapes of sacred spaces.

‎IMAGE AND MYTH A History of Pictorial Narration in Greek Art‎

‎Book is fine. Front flap is creased. ; On museum visits, we pass by beautiful, well-preserved vases from ancient Greece—but how often do we understand what the images on them depict? In Image and Myth, Luca Giuliani tells the stories behind the pictures, exploring how artists of antiquity had to determine which motifs or historical and mythic events to use to tell an underlying story while also keeping in mind the tastes and expectations of paying clients. Covering the range of Greek style and its growth between the early Archaic and Hellenistic periods, Giuliani describes the intellectual, social, and artistic contexts in which the images were created. He reveals that developments in Greek vase painting were driven as much by the times as they were by tradition—the better-known the story, the less leeway the artists had in interpreting it. As literary culture transformed from an oral tradition, in which stories were always in flux, to the stability of written texts, the images produced by artists eventually became nothing more than illustrations of canonical works. At once a work of cultural and art history, Image and Myth builds a new way of understanding the visual culture of ancient Greece. ; 10.1 X 7.0 X 1.0 inches; 384 pages‎

‎Summary Resulting from the international conference "The Italian Maiolica in the Renaissance. Studies and Research" (Assisi, 9-11 September 2016), this volume brings together contributions by experts from various national and international institutions, and in particular from museums housing dedicated collections of Renaissance ceramics. The volume, edited by Giulio Busti, Franco Cocchi e Mauro Cesaretti, thus provides a state of the art on historical and ceramological research about Italian Renaissance majolica. Two opening essays by professor emeritus Bruno Toscano and professor Timothy Wilson (Ashmolean Museum, Oxford) set the stage for the three thematic sections that follow. The contributions gathered in these sections respectively offer (1) a new interpretation of collections, collectors and museums, (2) a discussion of current tendencies in the research, and (3) an exploration of ceramic production before and after the Renaissance. Risultato del convegno internazionale La maiolica italiana del Rinascimento. Studi e ricerche (Assisi, 9-11 settembre 2016), questo volume raccoglie contributi di specialisti provenienti da numerose istituzioni nazionali e internazionali, e in particolare da musei che hanno specifiche sezioni di ceramica rinascimentale. Il volume, curato da Giulio Busti, Franco Cocchi e Mauro Cesaretti, fornisce pertanto lo stato dellarte della ricerca storica e ceramologica relativa alla maiolica italiana rinascimentale. Due saggi di apertura del professore emerito Bruno Toscano e del professore Timothy Wilson dellAshmolean Museum di Oxford introducono alle tre sezioni tematiche successive. I contributi raccolti in queste sezioni offrono rispettivamente: (1) una nuova interpretazione delle collezioni, dei collezionisti e dei musei; (2) un dibattito sulle attuali tendenze della ricerca; (3) un'analisi della produzione ceramica prima e dopo il Rinascimento.

‎, Silvana Editorale, 2025 Hardcover, 121 pages, 24.5 x 33 cm, Italian, English. *NEW. ISBN 9788836662937.‎

‎An adopted Roman, but born in Brazil in 1908 to Italian immigrant parents, Elio Luxardo (Sorocaba, 1908 ? Milan, 1969) is perhaps the greatest representative of that generation of photographers who found themselves immersed in Italy in the 1930s, while clearly differentiating themselves from their colleagues of the time. A master craftsman of the darkroom, he arrived in Rome in 1932 and grew professionally during the period when the Cinecitt film studios were being developed, cultivating his talent by portraying the actors and actresses of the time. But it was in his studio, far from the film sets, that he brought his inventive flair to the highest level, confining his work to a fascinating and intense mise en sc ne, from which he was able to extract a brilliant core of images dedicated exclusively to nude photography. The volume presents this intimate production of original photographs from the early 1930s, consisting of an unprecedented and engaging relationship between light and shadow. Fascinated by Greek and Roman sculpture, the male nude alternates admirably with the female nude, in a comparison that reveals the clash between two different identities: on the one hand, an involuntary process of observance of the dogmas of the time, and on the other, a tangible trace of his youthful spirit, nurtured in the lush and free atmosphere of Brazil. The man?s strength and vigour are immediately apparent in the representation of the male nude, which, however, intersects perfectly with the elusive eroticism of the female nude, a woman?s body far removed from the rhetoric of ?home, country, family? and the icon of the ?angel of the hearth?. This existential double game meant that his nude photographs, which did not fully comply with the canons of his time and those of the following decades, disappeared. His original, vigorous and seductive images have now finally re-emerged, finding light and visibility in a significant tribute to the artist.
