Dante on View
Author: Antonella Braida
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351946307
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 254
Book Description
Dante on View opens an important new dimension in Dante studies: for the first time a collection of essays analyses the presence of the Italian Medieval poet Dante Alighieri in the visual and performing arts from the Middle Ages to the present day. The essays in this volume explore the image of Dante emerging in medieval illuminated manuscripts and later ideological and nostalgic uses of the poet. The volume also demonstrates the rich diversity of projects inspired by the Commedia both as an overall polysemic structure and as a repository of scenes, which generate a repertoire for painters, actors and film-makers. In its original multimediality, Dante's Commedia stimulates the performance of readers and artists working in different media from manuscript to stage, from ballet to hyperinstruments, from film to television. Through such a variety of media, the reception of Dante in the visual and performing arts enriches our understanding of the poet and of the arts represented at key moments of formal and structural change in the European cultural world.

Book Description
What would you ask if you could write ten letters to your future self? How might they reply? In 2017, three people got the chance to find out. Yet with access to the future come even greater surprises in the present... Letters to 2039 examines hope, despair and human development. It explores our tendency for solipsism, even when faced with the chance to receive unprecedented insight into the future, and about how we might help others. At a time when planning for and predicting the future seems to have found its cultural counterpart in mindfulness, and when quantifiable outcomes have become the favoured yardstick of progress, this book looks at the tensions between the present and the future, as well as the unpredictability of the human experience.

Languages : en
Pages : 471
Book Description
In a domed granite chamber deep beneath the Giza Plateau, a proto-pyramidical beacon pulses a warning into the cosmos for millennia while dark spectral forces conspire to terminate the signal by removing its infinite power, the golden ellipse. * * * In 1944, a German spy unwittingly looted the golden ellipse, but in the fog of world war, it ended up in the hands of a brash American fighter pilot who buried the prized contraband in the desert before his paranormal demise on a daring air raid in the south of France. * * * In 2044, a young couple fresh off a space tourism touchdown in Toulouse is hijacked from their honeymoon onto a heart-pounding odyssey to locate the legendary gold relic and restart the beacon’s signal before time runs out. It’s just the fate of the world. No pressure. Book One in THE POWERS THAT BE trilogy, THE GOLDEN ELLIPSE, is an epic sci-fi action adventure introducing Rachel and Owen Haig—intrepid newlyweds in a tech-driven near-future world of 2044 replete with AI and humanoid replicants. Their perilous quest culminates in a harrowing pitch-black descent beneath the Giza Plateau, where fates collide as alien invaders tear open Earth’s skies. Drawing parallels between the Great Pyramid's mysterious origin and Fermi's paradox, The Golden Ellipse is an epoch-spanning story rich in history and paranormal intrigue with an eclectic cast of 3-dimensional characters, gritty dialogue, dark humor, and a clandestine organization known simply as The Powers That Be, chartered to foster humankind's destiny in a crowded universe.
