This book seeks to broaden the comprehension of the student of Italian Renaissance painting by concentrating not on the works of art themselves, but on the various artistic theories which influenced them or were expressed by them. Taking Alberti's treatises as his starting-point, Anthony Blunt traces the development of artistic theory from Humanism to Mannerism. He discusses th...(展开全部)

这项历时十年的古代中国艺术研究，考察了从新石器晚期（公元前第四千纪）到战国末期（前三世纪）的玉器、陶器、丝绸、漆器、铜器和展示性文字的历史。本书两位学者聚焦于艺术史研究的根本问题：艺术史学家必须依靠考古学，也必须依赖从物品本身所能攫取的信息。 要想阐述艺术品的历史——要想解释它们——势必要找到通向个人思维的途径，无论他们的名字是否为人所知。当我们能找到一件作品的可信的前身时，这些前期作品就为我们提供了途径来理解作品背后所蕴含的思考，因为作品背离其前身之处，反映出了有意识或无意识做出的决定。半个世纪以来，中国考古学家从年代确切或者信息丰富的遗迹中所揭示的材料之丰富让人难以想象，极大地改善了此等研究的前景。 本书图版里的大部分作品在1970年时仍然深藏地下，那一年写的书决不可能做出贝格利和王海城在本书中的尝试。由于考古发掘仍在高速进行，现在写的书也决不可...(展开全部)

As we taste, chew, swallow, digest, and excrete, our foods transform us, while our eating, in its turn, affects the wider earthly environment. In Eating in Theory Annemarie Mol takes inspiration from these transformative entanglements to rethink what it is to be human. Drawing on fieldwork at food conferences, research labs, health care facilities, restaurants, and her own kitc...(展开全部)

For nineteenth-century Swiss historian Jacob Burckhardt, the Italian Renaissance was nothing less than the beginning of the modern world - a world in which flourishing individualism and the competition for fame radically transformed science, the arts, and politics. In this landmark work he depicts the Italian city-states of Florence, Venice and Rome as providing the seeds of a ...(展开全部)

Between the `Black Death' in the mid-fourteenth century and the French invasions at the end of the fifteenth, artists such as Masaccio, Donatello, Fra Angelico, and Leonardo, working in the kingdoms, princedoms, and republics of the Italian peninsula, created some of the most influential and exciting works in a variety of artistic fields. Yet the traditional story of the Renais...(展开全部)

In this timely and wide-ranging book, Jonathan Culler, whose ...(展开全部)
