Описание: The fascinating and quirky biography of a disheveled poet, skillfully interwoven with his original works. Zen priest Santoka Taneda (1882-1940) is one of Japan's most beloved modern poets, famous for his "free-verse" haiku, the dominant style today. This book tells the fascinating story of his life, liberally sprinkled with more than 300 of his poems and extracts from his essays and journals--compiled by his best friend and biographer Oyama Sumita and elegantly translated by William Scott Wilson. Santoka was a literary prodigy, but a notoriously disorganized human being. By his own admission, he was incapable of doing anything other than wandering on his own two feet and writing his own verses. Although Santoka married and had a son, he devoted his life to poetry, studying Zen, drinking sake and wandering the length and breadth of the Japanese countryside on foot. The poet's life alternated between long periods of solitary retreat and restless travel, influenced by his tragic childhood. When not on the road, he lived in simple grass huts supported by friends and family. Santoka was a lively conversationalist who was often found so drunk he could only make it home with the help of a friendly neighbor or passerby. But above all, throughout his life, he wrote constantly; poetry and essays flowed from him effortlessly. Santoka's eccentric style of haiku is highly regarded in Japan today for being truly modern and free from formal constraints. His journals and essays are equally thought-provoking--the musings of an unkempt but supremely self-conscious mind on everything from writing to cooking rice and his failure to live a more orderly life. This translation is by best-selling author William Scott Wilson whose other works include The Book of Five Rings and The Lone Samurai. Wilson provides sensitive renditions of the haiku illustrating Santoka's life as well as an extensive introduction to the influences on Santoka's work from contemporary haiku poets and his Buddhist teachers.

Описание:
In The Last of an Age, Sooyong Kim explores the relationship between
social change and the development of an Ottoman literary canon in the
course of the sixteenth century by examining the work and reception of
a popular poet, Zati (1471-1546). Kim argues that a newly emergent
group of bureaucratic literati, through the production of authoritative biographical
dictionaries, ultimately relegated Zati to a lesser literary age,
driven by a self-fashioning that privileged broad linguistic ability, above
all else, with poetry serving as the main vehicle for demonstrating that.
This study is interdisciplinary in approach, taking insights from literary
studies, cultural history, and social theory. It adds to the scholarship
on the rise of early modern Ottoman canons in the fields of visual arts
and music and complements recent work on court patronage. Framed by
ongoing critiques of canon formation among specialists of early modern
Europe and late imperial China, the study offers a comparative perspective
on those issues.

Описание: Beginning with the analysis of two works by Titian (ca. 1488-1576) preserved in the Czech Republic--the so-called "Vanitas" belonging to the Prague Castle Collections, a portrait of a beautiful young woman usually interpreted as an allegory of vanity, and the gruesome "Flaying of Marsyas" housed in the Archbishop's Palace in Kromeriz--Titian: Vanitas deals with the artistic and existential life of the Cadore-born painter and presents the two paintings in the context of Titian's broader production. This volume, edited by Lionello Puppi and Serena Baccaglini and including texts from Giorgio Reolon, Barbara Putova, Silvia Miscellaneo and Antonio Genova, delves into the Renaissance artist's process and self-presentation, from the preparation of models and the production of replicas to the success of the artist and the intention and manipulations of his self-portraits.
