Ce livre historique peut contenir de nombreuses coquilles et du texte manquant. Les acheteurs peuvent generalement telecharger une copie gratuite scannee du livre original (sans les coquilles) aupres de l'editeur. Non reference. Non illustre. 1900 edition. Extrait: ...know better. "Into these smaller works, whether the 'Dream of Life'or the 'Cupid and Psyche, ' the sculptor infuses an astonishing amount of passion and sweetness, and reveals a sensuousness of which no one knowing him only by his Hugo or his Calais monument would believe him capable. Herein he displays hot sympathy with the erotic passion; but he proves a love not less deep for the marble, which he caresses into flesh or flowing hair and even voluptuous movement." Naturally, M. Mirbeau can do better than this. "And, as every one knows, the motifs which here develop and expand have been inspired by the inferno of Dante." This is a flat insult offered to the shade of the poet. "Concerning this imposing undertaking, there has been manifested a veritable agitation, increased to still greater proportions by the sight of certain scattered and disquieting fragments. From time to time, in the expositions litres there have appeared little groups, little figures of a strange passion, of a novelty of attitude and expression, of a violent symbolism, which for those with the traditional tastes shocked violently against the stupid and insignificant pretty, --a complete world of suffering and of voluptuousness howling under the lash of the lewd passions, rushing desperately at the nothingness of carnal possession, at the ferocious embraces of damned loves and infamous kisses. The bodies, stamped with the original evil, the evil of living, a prey to the fatality of sorrow, seek each other, pursue each other, clasp each other, penetrate each other, --spasms and bitings, --and fall again exhausted, soiled, vanquished, in that eternal struggle of the human animal against the ideal ungluttable and murderous....

Gathering architectural pieces from all over the world, the Paris Universal Exposition of 1867 introduced to fairgoers the notion of an imaginary journey, a new tourism en place. Through this and similar expositions, the world's cultures were imported to European and American cities as artifacts and presented to nineteenth-century men and women as the world in microcosm, giving a quick and seemingly realistic impression of distant places. elik examines the display of Islamic cultures at nineteenth-century world's fairs, focusing on the exposition architecture. She asserts that certain sociopolitical and cultural trends now crucial to our understanding of historical transformations in both the West and the world of Islam were mirrored in the fair's architecture. Furthermore, dominant attitudes toward cross-cultural exchanges were revealed repeatedly in Westerners' responses to these pavilions, in Western architects' interpretations of Islamic stylistic traditions, and in the pavilions' impact in such urban centers. Although the world's fairs claimed to be platforms for peaceful cultural communication, they displayed the world according to a hierarchy based on power relations. elik's delineation of this hierarchy in the exposition buildings enables us to understand both the adversarial relations between the West and the Middle East, and the issue of cultural self-definition for Muslim societies of the nineteenth century.
