Описание: "The Painter's Women: Goya in Light and Shade" is for anyone interested in art, storytelling and the life of a most challenging artist. Francisco Goya's life, work and loves are reflected through the eyes of six women who knew the painter intimately during his long and eventful life: his daughter, wife, mistress, daughter-in-law, a duchess, and a young model. The story opens in 1828 at Goya's deathbed in Bordeaux in the voice of his adored but unacknowledged fourteen-year-old daughter, Rosario, who has stayed and talked to her old father all night after his death. Gumersinda, the wife of Goya's only surviving son Javier, who has travelled reluctantly from Madrid to be at the dying artist's bedside and funeral has a viperish view of her father-in-law and of his work. She is determined that neither Rosario nor her mother Leocadia, Goya's much younger mistress, will inherit any of Goya's wealth. Leocadia recounts the difficulties of living with a taciturn deaf old man. Josefa, Goya's wife of forty years, an unassuming reserved woman, speaks to Goya from her deathbed. She has witnessed his rise to fame and his becoming the Court Painter. She has endured the deaths of six of their infants, his many unexplained absences, the rumours of his affairs. The beautiful, feisty young Duchess of Alba first meets Goya in 1795 when she comes to his studio and commands him to paint her face. After her husband's death, she invites Goya to Andalusia where they spend some months together. Dolores is young girl on the make at the Duchess's home in Andalusia. She is enticed by the Duchess to become Goya's model for some rather audacious drawings. Fionnuala Brennan reveals with knowledge, imagination, and convincingness often contradictory aspects of the character and work of this enigmatic artist who lived through a most turbulent period in European history. "From the six female narrative voices that comprise "The Painter's Women," there emerges an intriguing portrait of the artist Francisco de Goya. A complex character who insisted that his deafness made him see more clearly, Goya dominates the novel. Ambitious and difficult, unfaithful and generous, uncompromising and volatile: we see the man and the influences, both personal and political, that underpinned such masterpieces as Los Desastres de la Guerra and Los Caprichos." -Catherine Dunne "The Painter's Women is a Cubist view of Goya. Fionnuala Brennan creates shards of the great painter as viewed by the women who competed with one another for a slice of his affections. Rich in historical detail and powerfully atmospheric, The Painter's Women is as dark, passionate and haunting as a Goya masterpiece." -Mary Morrissy "An original and impressive novel that carries its learning lightly and makes for compelling and enjoyable reading." -Marie Heaney
Описание: The Transformations of Tragedy: Christian Influences from Early Modern to Modern explores the influence of Christian theology and culture upon the development of post-classical Western tragedy. The volume is divided into three parts: early modern, modern, and contemporary. This series of essays by established and emergent scholars offers a sustained study of Christianity’s creative influence upon experimental forms of Western tragic drama. Both early modern and modern tragedy emerged within periods of remarkable upheaval in Church history, yet Christianity’s diverse influence upon tragedy has too often been either ignored or denounced by major tragic theorists. This book contends instead that the history of tragedy cannot be sufficiently theorised without fully registering the impact of Christianity in transition towards modernity.
