 Nature, War and the Art of the Detmold Twins Orientalist Dreams, Modernity’s Nightmares【電子書籍】[ Tessa Morris-Suzuki ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞Twins Charles Maurice Detmold (1883-1908) and Edward Julius Detmold (1883-1957) were among the most extraordinary, enigmatic and tragic figures in early twentieth-century British art. In unravelling the mysteries of their lives, this book re-examines themes of art and war, orientalism and the human relationship with nature.＜/p＞ ＜p＞By the time they entered their teens, the Detmold twins were widely recognised as artistic geniuses. They worked together on acclaimed etchings and on illustrations to Kipling’s ＜em＞Jungle Book＜/em＞, but at the height of their fame, and while still in his early twenties, Charles Maurice Detmold inexplicably committed suicide, leaving only a couple of strange sentences as clues to the reason for his death. Edward Detmold went on to become a central figure in the golden age of book illustration, famous particularly for his nature paintings and for the images he created to accompany Hodder and Stoughton’s exquisite 1924 edition of ＜em＞The Arabian Nights＜/em＞. He was also imprisoned as a conscientious objector during the First World War and developed idiosyncratic philosophies, particularly focused on his impassioned rejection of the violence of modern civilization.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The first book-length biography of the Detmold twins, this study uses previously unknown archives to show how profoundly their work resonates with the predicaments of environmental destruction and rising tides of military violence that still confront us today. This book is of relevance to all students and researchers with an interest in early twentieth-century British cultural and social history and in art history (especially the history of illustration and the fields of art and war, art and the environment, and Orientalist art). It will also appeal to a broader audience of general readers with a love of art history as well as those with an interest in themes of twentieth century pacifism and utopianism.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 10,280円 |
 French Women Orientalist Artists, 1861?1956 Cross-Cultural Contacts and Depictions of Difference【電子書籍】[ Mary Kelly ] 楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア | ＜p＞This book is the first full-length study dedicated to French women Orientalist artists.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Mary Kelly has gathered primary documentation relating to seventy-two women artists whose works of art can be placed in the canon of French Orientalism between 1861 and 1956. Bringing these artists together for the first time and presenting close contextual analyses of works of art, attention is given to artists’ cross-cultural interactions with painted/sculpted representations of the Maghreb particularly in Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco.Using an interdisciplinary ‘open platform of discussion’ approach, Kelly builds on established theory which places emphases on the gendered gaze. This entails a discussion on women’s painted perspectives of and contacts with Muslim women as well as various Maghrebi cultures and landーall the while remaining mindful of the subject position of the French artist and the problematic issues which can arise when discussing European-made ‘ethnographic’ scenes. Kelly argues that French women’s perspectives of the Maghreb differed from the male gaze and were informed by their artistic training and social positions in Europe. In so doing, French women’s socio-cultural modernity is also examined. Moreover, executed between 1861 and 1956, the works of art presented show influences of Modernism; therefore, this book also pays close attention to progressive Realism and Naturalism in art and the Orientalist shift into Modernist subject matter and form. Through this research into French women Orientalists, Kelly engages with important discussions on the crossing view of the historical female other with the cultural other, artistic hybridity and influence in art as well as the postcolonial response to French activities in colonial Algeria and the protectorates of Tunisia and Morocco.On giving focus to women’s art and the impact of cross-cultural interchanges, this book rethinks Orientalism in French art.＜/p＞ ＜p＞This book will be of particular interest to scholars in the history of art, gender studies, history, and Middle Eastern and North African studies*.*＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 | 9,616円 |
