A Portrait Is A Puzzle written by Cherine Fahd and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2017-10-22 with Photography, Artistic categories.
This 'paired volume', beautifully designed by Elliott Bryce Foulkes, features Cherine Fahd's photographic studies, 'Shadowing Portraits' (2014-2016) and 'You Look Like a...' (2016-2017). It includes a critical essay by Blair French - Director Curatorial and Digital, Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, contributions from the 'Shadowing' participants, as well as Fahd's own notations on the processes of making portraits. A 'Portrait is a Puzzle' is in itself an artwork: a pairing of two photographic series that invites the reader to turn the book over and around, to reach two endings in the middle and to interrogate the function of a portrait and the people it depicts as an infinite and unsolvable puzzle.

The Lines Of Life written by David Novarr and has been published by Purdue University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1986 with Biography & Autobiography categories.
The study of biography has leaped from surveys of biographical writing and statements of biographical practice to semiotic and post-structuralist discussions of the modality of biography without adequate consideration of what has already been done in the theory of the genre. Professor Novarr has closed that gap with this comprehensive and judicious historical survey and assessment of all the major (and many of the minor) statements made about biography in the crucial period 1880-1970. It traces, in the work of writers like David Cecil, Leon Edel, Mark Schorer, Paul Murray Kendall, and others, the nature of the relation between biographer and subject, the concept that biography is essentially the interpretation of one mind by another, and the idea that the biographer's angle of vision is both inevitable and important.

With bracing clarity, James Elkins explores why images are taken to be more intricate and hard to describe in the twentieth century than they had been in any previous century. Why Are Our Pictures Puzzles? uses three models to understand the kinds of complex meaning that pictures are thought to possess: the affinity between the meanings of paintings and jigsaw-puzzles; the contemporary interest in ambiguity and 'levels of meaning'; and the penchant many have to interpret pictures by finding images hidden within them. Elkins explores a wide variety of examples, from the figures hidden in Renaissance paintings to Salvador Dali's paranoiac meditations on Millet's Angelus, from Persian miniature paintings to jigsaw-puzzles. He also examines some of the most vexed works in history, including Watteau's "meaningless" paintings, Michelangelo's Sistine Ceiling, and Leonardo's Last Supper.

Theory And Tradition In Eighteenth Century Studies written by Richard B. Schwartz and has been published by SIU Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1990 with Literary Collections categories.
This is a collection of nine essays by senior scholars Donald Greene, Morris R. Brownell, Richard B. Schwartz, Howard D. Weinbrot, Maximillian Novak, J. Paul Hunter, John H. Middendorf, Shirley Strum Kenny, and Gwin J. Kolb. They draw from their own experiences as students and scholars to assess the past and present position of theory in eighteenth-century studies and to discuss the important areas of scholarship that remain relatively unexplored, often proposing specific projects. Some essays are controversial; all are lively and personal. The essays evolved from a 1987 conference held at Georgetown University--the first such conference to examine the state of eighteenth-century literary studies in fifteen years.
