«Quando i miti scompaiono - scrive l'autore nella Prefazione al volume - lasciano dietro di se, come un'ultima eco, il loro nome, ancora intriso di fascino che nessuno sa più definire. Così il mito del dandy, liquidato dalla modernità, riaffiora in una serie di citazioni, spesso erronee, sui giornali e sullo schermo. Il lento tramonto del dandy non si è consumato casualmente. Nella democrazia dominata dai media la vera eleganza è sospetta. Chi la pratica deve per forza nascondere narcisismo e potenziale slealtà verso le masse lontane da tanta raffinatezza. Affascinante, irraggiungibile e quindi minacciosa viene metodicamente rimossa e concessa soltanto alle donne».

The essence of art is to conceal art. A dancer or musician does not only need to perform with ability. There should also be a lack of visible effort that gives an impression of naturalness. To disguise technique and feign ease is to heighten beauty. To express this notion, Italian has a word with no exact equivalent in other languages, sprezzatura: a kind of unaffectedness or nonchalance. In this book, the first to consider sprezzatura in its own right, philosopher of art Paolo D’Angelo reconstructs the history of concealing art, from ancient rhetoric to our own times. The word sprezzatura was coined in 1528 by Baldassarre Castiglione in The Book of the Courtier to mean a kind of grace with a special essence: the ability to conceal art. But the idea reaches back to Aristotle and Cicero and forward to avant-garde works such as Duchamp’s ready-mades, all of which share the suspicion of the overt display of skill. The precept that art must be hidden turns up in a number of fields, from cosmetics to interior design, politics to poetry, the English garden to shabby chic. Through exploring different articulations of this idea, D’Angelo shows the paradox of aesthetics: art hides that it is art, but in doing so it reveals itself to be art and becomes an assertion about art. When art is concealed, it appears as spontaneous as nature—yet, paradoxically, also reveals its indebtedness to technique. An erudite and surprising tour through aesthetics, philosophy, and art history, Sprezzatura presents a strikingly original argument with deceptive ease.

Was ist ein Dandy? Während die klassischen l'homme et l'œuvre-Ansätze die Figur des Dandys als Amalgam von Autorintention, Werk und Leben sehen, wird hier der Versuch unternommen, den Dandy mit aktuellen Methoden der kulturwissenschaftlich informierten Literaturwissenschaft zu analysieren. Die dezidiert archäologisch-diskurstheoretische Perspektive des Bandes setzt sich kritisch mit dem New Historicism sowie den Ansätzen von Michel Foucault und Jürgen Link auseinander, um Konzept und Theorie der »Behauptung« zu erarbeiten. Dadurch wird eine alternative Betrachtungsweise kanonisierter und nicht-kanonisierter Texte ermöglicht, welche u.a. eine Neubewertung des Genres der Anekdote impliziert. Dies führt zu einem überraschenden Bild des Dandys, das neue Impulse für die Forschung anzuregen vermag.

Lord Ferdinand Dudley è tanto bello quanto spietato, abituato a ottenere sempre quello che vuole. Ma tutto cambia quando, recatosi a Pinewood Manor per reclamare la proprietà che ha vinto al gioco, si trova davanti lady Viola Thornhill, furiosa e ben decisa a tenersi stretta quella che considera casa sua. Poiché Ferdinand rifiuta di andarsene, ha inizio un'estenuante schermaglia in cui Viola non può permettersi di cedere e lui... altrettanto. Ma vivere sotto lo stesso tetto rischia di indebolire la risolutezza di entrambi, specialmente quando entra in gioco un'attrazione che non si può nascondere. E un sentimento che Ferdinand non si aspettava di provare per una donna che lo disprezza e lo respinge.
