Описание:
The Belgian Surrealist artist Rene Magritte (1898-1967) is well known for his thought-provoking and witty images that challenge the observer's preconditioned perceptions of reality. Magritte and Literature examines some of the artist's major paintings whose titles were influenced by and related to works of literature. Baudelaire's The Flowers of Evil, Goethe's Elective Affinities, and Poe's The Domain of Arnheim are representative examples of Magritte's interarts dialogue with literary figures.
Despite these convergences, the titles subvert the images in his paintings. It is the two images together that express the aesthetics of Surrealism--for example, the juxtaposition of unrelated objects whose purpose is to spark recognition. Magritte's challenge to representation compares with metafiction's challenge to classic realism, Les Chants de Maldoror, for example, and the intersecting space between art and writing, sometimes referred to as the iconotext, manifests itself whenever Magritte borrows a literary title for a painting. His strategy is to paint visible thought, and this reverse ekphrasis, the opposite of a rhetorical description, undermines the written text. When he succeeds, the effect is poetry.

Описание: Go behind the beards in this daring insider s look at the curious Amish subculture of Pennsylvania Dutch Country Is the plain and simple life really so plain and simple? How do the Amish live without cars? Electricity? NFL football? The truth is, they don t. More than fifty million people have watched Lebanon Levi Stoltzfus in Discovery Channel s hit show "Amish Mafia, "where he dispenses justice and keeps the peace among the seemingly quiet, insular Amish people of Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Now, he reveals what it s really like to be Amish. Not the buggies, bonnets, and beards image the tight-knit community has portrayed for hundreds of years to the relentless curiosity of outsiders. The real-deal, day-to-day life the good and the bad all the dirty little secrets you re not supposed to know. From Wi-Fi pleasure huts, to prostitutes, to marijuana and cocaine, you ll never look at the Amish the same. It isn t easy keeping your feet planted firmly in the 1800s when the rest of the world is centuries ahead. Not even for the most God-fearing among us. The Amish have their own unique way of doing everything, and the lengths they will go to indulge in modern conveniences and hide their indiscretions will shock you. What have you been dying to know? How about what really happens when someone is shunned? Or whether the Amish pay taxes? Do they ever try to pass as English (in other words, non-Amish)? How rampant is illicit sex in such a repressed society? Can individuals make themselves stand out despite the strict rules? Why would the Amish take such risks when the punishment is eternal damnation? Lebanon Levi blows the top off the buggy with this scandalous insider s expose, proving that even the Amish don t always practice what they preach."
Описание: Stoltzfus explores the tension between a country preparing to enter into a world war and a people whose history of martyrdom for their pacifist beliefs goes back to their sixteenth-century Reformation beginnings.
