The passionate love story of a god and an exquisitely beautiful mortal woman, the myth of Cupid and Psyche has fascinated Western culture since the Middle Ages. First appearing as a long aside in Apuleius's The Golden Ass in the second century A.D., this romance has inspired countless works of art in an astonishingly wide range of media. Gathered here is a selection of these numerous works, from monumental fresco cycles, to easel paintings and wedding chests, from miniatures, tapestries, and stained-glass windows, to marble and porcelain sculptures. Many are considered masterpieces of European art. The sheer number and beauty of the works this myth has inspired is a testament to the power and richness of the story. The lovers are often portrayed as children to suggest their eternal youth and immortality. In some scenes they are shown kissing, in others, tormenting each other, expressing the extremes of joy and suffering that beset all lovers. The changing tastes and sensibilities of different periods are reflected in Psyche's appearance, evolving from courtly and Baroque to neoclassical and Pre-Raphaelite. For the modern age, it is the dual nature of Cupid and Psyche's love, on the one hand deeply spiritual, and on the other intensely sensual, that has resonated most powerfully. "It seems," noted Walter Pater, the nineteenth-century British critic, of Apuleius's story, "that one can see and touch the blond hair, the fresh flowers, the precious works of art of which he speaks." Thanks to the extraordinary artworks included in this book, we can indeed see, if not touch, the splendors of Apuleius's story.

Giorgio Vasari qualifiait Raphaël d'artista aggraziato, artiste touché par la grâce. Sans doute s'agit-il encore de l'une des plus justes manières d'évoquer l'oeuvre de l'un des plus grands créateur de la renaissance italienne, aux côté de Michel-Ange et Léonard de Vinci. L'auteur réexamine toutes les grandes périodes de sa courte carrière, qu'il débarasse de poncifs accumulés au fil des siècles. Il garde à l'esprit la composante la plus profonde de son art: son rapport à la beauté liée à la dialectique de l'amour terrestre et de l'amour céleste, qui au tournant du XVème et du XVIème siècles, était au coeur du débat de la philosophie d'amour, mais à laquelle il su donner une expression concrète à travers l'image. Si Raphaël était incomparable aux yeux des humanistes et des lettrés de la cour du pape Léon X c'était, selon les mots d'André Chastel rapportés par De Vecchi parce que l'on percevait, dans la perfection de la forme, une dimension métaphysique de la beauté. Tous les grands tableaux de l'artiste sont ici reproduits, mais également un nombre important de dessins et de gravures, permettent de comprendre la conception de ses oeuvres et leur diffusion. Son travail d'architecte et de décorateur (Loges, Chambres, villa Madame...)y est également abordé.

Ricci's book ranges widely over Calvino's oeuvre to illustrate the accuracy of the idea articulated by Calvino himself that a visual image lies at the origin of all his narrative. The book's main theme is the difficult interface between word and image that Calvino struggled with throughout his career, the act of perception that rendered visible that which was invisible and transformed what was seen into what is read. Ricci holds that Calvino's narrative has an 'imagocentric' program and that his literary strategy is 'ekphrastic' i.e. it is characterized by literary description of visual representation, real or imaginary. The book is interdisciplinary in nature and will interest not only scholars of literature but also those who work with the visual arts and with information technology.

Le singole edizioni della Mostra Internazionale d’Arte Cinematografica della Biennale di Venezia succedutesi nei novant’anni intercorsi dalla sua nascita rivivono nella loro varietà e novità in un’accurata e affascinante cronistoria. Gian Piero Brunetta, il decano della storia e critica cinematografica, punto di riferimento imprescindibile per gli studi sulla storia del cinema italiano, racconta l’avvicendamento «di condottieri e capitani coraggiosi, di combattenti, esploratori, scopritori, traghettatori, negoziatori, funzionari rispettosi, grands commis de l’État, direttori pontefici, direttori ombra e di passaggio, nonché di giurie competenti, equilibrate, coraggiose, incompetenti, imprevedibili, distratte, conformiste, eterodirette e ammaestrate». Intrecciando e annodando più fili, in modo da includere il ruolo dei presidenti, l’operato e le strategie dei direttori e le caratteristiche salienti delle diverse edizioni, l’autore disegna un arazzo variopinto e descrive con i «toni alti dell’epopea» l’alternanza di gusti, mode, polemiche e ideologie che sono lo specchio morale ed estetico di un secolo di vita italiana. Dando costante risalto all’interazione fra critica, pubblico e politica – e con un occhio di riguardo ai registi e ai film che più di altri le hanno dato lustro – la Mostra diventa l’occasione per raccontare un secolo di storia del cinema e di civiltà della visione.

This book traces the transmission and reception of one of the most influential novels in Western literature. The Golden Ass, the only ancient Roman novel to survive in its entirety, tells of a young man changed into an ass by magic and his bawdy adventures and narrow escapes before the goddess Isis changes him back again. Its centerpiece is the famous story of Cupid and Psyche. Julia Gaisser follows Apuleius' racy tale from antiquity through the sixteenth century, tracing its journey from roll to codex in fourth-century Rome, into the medieval library of Monte Cassino, into the hands of Italian humanists, into print, and, finally, over the Alps and into translation in Spanish, French, German, and English. She demonstrates that the novel's reception was linked with Apuleius' reputation as a philosopher and the persona he projected in his works. She relates Apuleius and the Golden Ass to a diverse cast of important literary and historical figures--including Augustine, Fulgentius, Petrarch, Boccaccio, Bessarion, Boiardo, and Beroaldo. Paying equal attention to the novel's transmission (how it survived) and its reception (how it was interpreted), she places the work in its many different historical contexts, examining its representation in art, literary imitation, allegory, scholarly commentary, and translation. The volume contains several appendixes, including an annotated list of the manuscripts of the Golden Ass. This book is based on the author's Martin Classical Lectures at Oberlin College in 2000.
