![]() ![]() Author: Stewart Susan Publisher: Aboca Edizioni Le rovine emergono ai margini delle culture e delle civiltà come fenomeni sincretici e a seguito di un atto di traslazione dal passato al presente, da ciò che è scomparso a ciò che è sopravvissuto. Sono alter ego di ciò che è lasciato incompleto e rappresentano un monito ai costruttori di monumenti. Oggi, in quello che definiamo mondo civilizzato, l'uomo persegue spesso pratiche che minano i suoi valori. Sa perfettamente che deve prendersi cura delle risorse della terra ma continua ad adottare un sistema economico basato sulla 'distruzione creativa'. Non solo si dedica a queste forme di sfacelo ma le ha anche rese protagoniste della sua tradizione artistica. La rappresentazione delle rovine sembra infatti suscitare un grande fascino nell'uomo fin da sempre: dalla storia della caduta di Troia alla 'pornografia delle rovine' contemporanea, l'uomo è attratto dalla vista di ciò che è distrutto, danneggiato e decaduto. Coprendo una vasta gamma cronologica e geografica, dalle antiche iscrizioni egiziane ai memoriali del XX secolo, alla ricerca dell'impatto che le rovine hanno esercitato sulla storia dell'arte e della letteratura occidentali, Susan Stewart si è imbattuta sul rifiuto e la trasformazione della classicità da parte degli ambienti cristiani, sulla proliferazione di immagini di rovine nelle rappresentazioni allegoriche rinascimentali, su antichi siti di disastri e su giardini ornati con rovine artificiali. Le opere d'arte rivelano molto dell'atteggiamento che l'uomo assume nei confronti della materialità, perché rappresentano ciò che egli trova particolarmente attraente € 69,00

![]() ![]() Author: Stewart Gary L., Mustafa Susan Publisher: Harpercollins When Gary L.

![]() ![]() Author: Stewart Susan Publisher: Univ of Chicago Pr Red Rover is both the name of a children's game and a formless spirit, a god of release and permission, called upon in the course of that game. The “red rover” is also a thread of desire, and a clue to the forces of love and antipathy that shape our fate. In her most innovative work to date, award-winning poet and critic Susan Stewart remembers the antithetical forces—falling and rising, coming and going, circling and centering—revealed in such games and traces them out to many other cycles. Ranging among traditional, open, and newly-invented forms, and including a series of free translations of medieval dream visions and love poems, Red Rover begins as a historical meditation on our fall and grows into a song of praise for the green and turning world. € 18,10

![]() ![]() Author: Stewart Susan; Biggio M. C. (cur.) Publisher: Jaca Book Con Red Rover di Susan Stewart, Jaca Book propone una voce della grande poesia statunitense rinascente. La situazione poetica del secondo Novecento registra, in tutto l'Occidente, e in particolare negli USA, una caduta minimalistica: poesia frammentaria, quotidiana, secondaria rispetto alla vita. In America, come in Europa, resistono grandi voci a mantenere il filo di una poesia assoluta e metafisica. Assoluta in quanto capace di una visione universale; metafisica in senso eliotiano, non speculazione astratta, ma al contrario la forza di rendere evidente l'invisibile nel visibile e nel concreto, svelando. I maestri americani del primo Novecento sono tra i principali fondatori di questa linea: Eliot, Pound, Hart Crane. Susan Stewart, nata nel 1952, riprende quella lezione alta e metamorfica, baluginante e cosmica, con una potenza lucida e pregnante: i suoi versi interrogano e mettono a nudo il mondo, similmente ai migliori lirici americani di oggi, Charles Simic e Charles Wright, e attingendo alla tradizione metafisica europea che da Dante Alighieri a John Donne corre a Eliot. € 18,00

![]() ![]() Author: Stewart Susan Publisher: Trafalgar Square How widely did women use make-up in ancient Rome and what evidence exists? In this pioneering study, the author draws on literary, non-literary, visual, and archaeological evidence to show the importance of cosmetics and perfumes for health, ideas of beauty, social status, as a demonstration of wealth and luxury, and as an expression of gender within the Roman Empire. Covering the 300 years from the writings of Ovid to the Price Edict of Diocletian in AD 301, the study acts as a survey of the perception and reality behind the use of cosmetics and perfumes under the Roman Empire. € 33,40
