Surrealist Painters and Poets An Anthology


Free Download Surrealist Painters and Poets: An Anthology By Mary Ann Caws
2001 | 576 Pages | ISBN: 0262032759 | PDF | 32 MB
In 1951 Robert Motherwell published a collection of writings called The Dada Painters and Poets: An Anthology. Conceived as a sequel to that volume, Surrealist Painters and Poets: An Anthology does for Surrealism what Motherwell’s book did for Dadaism. The concept and contents were discussed with Robert Motherwell and met with his enthusiastic approval. The essays, manifestos, poems, and texts in this anthology offer a composite picture of the Surrealists-their convictions, styles, and spirit-from the movement’s beginnings in France just after World War I to its second flowering in America after World War II. The book includes writers and artists from Belgium, Chile, Czechoslovakia, Cuba, Egypt, England, France, Germany, Guyana, Italy, Martinique, Mauritius, Mexico, Spain, Switzerland, Senegal, Uruguay, and the United States. Caws’s main criterion for inclusion was that the works be the best and most representative of the different forms of Surrealism. Among others, the artists and writers include Andre Breton, Marcel Duchamp and Rrose Selavy, Max Ernst, Mina Loy, Francis Picabia, and Tristan Tzara.

New Poetries VI An Anthology


Free Download Helen Tookey, "New Poetries VI: An Anthology"
English | 2015 | pages: 256 | ISBN: 1784100374 | EPUB | 2,2 mb
From the first New Poetries anthology, published in 1994, through to this sixth volume, the series has showcased the work of some of the most exciting and interesting new poets writing in English from around the world, many of whom have subsequently gone on to achieve notable success: Sophie Hannah, Vona Groarke, Patrick McGuinness, Kei Miller, Caroline Bird, David Morley, Jane Yeh, William Letford, Tara Bergin, and many others. Crucially, the New Poetries anthologies have never sought to identify a school, much less a generation: the poets included employ a wide range of styles, forms, and approaches, and "new" need not be taken to imply "young." Poets include Vahni Capildeo, Joey Connolly, Adam Crothers, J. Kates, Eric Langley, Rebecca Watts, Judith Willson, Alex Wong, and more.

Experiencing Animal Minds An Anthology of Animal-Human Encounters


Free Download Experiencing Animal Minds: An Anthology of Animal-Human Encounters By Julie A. Smith, Robert W. Mitchell
2012 | 400 Pages | ISBN: 0231161506 | EPUB | 20 MB
In these multidisciplinary essays, academic scholars and animal experts explore the nature of animal minds and the methods humans conventionally and unconventionally use to understand them. The collection features chapters by scholars working in psychology, sociology, history, philosophy, literary studies, and art, as well as chapters by and about people who live and work with animals, including the founder of a sanctuary for chickens, a fur trapper, a popular canine psychologist, a horse trainer, and an art photographer who captures everyday contact between humans and their animal companions.Divided into five sections, the collection first considers the ways that humans live with animals and the influence of cohabitation on their perceptions of animals’ minds. It follows with an examination of anthropomorphism as both a guide and hindrance to mapping animal consciousness. Chapters next examine the effects of embodiment on animals’ minds and the role of animal-human interembodiment on humans’ understandings of animals’ minds. Final sections identify historical representations of difference between human and animal consciousness and their relevance to pre-established cultural attitudes, as well as the ways that representations of animals’ minds target particular audiences and sometimes produce problematic outcomes. The editors conclude with a discussion of the relationship between the book’s chapters and two pressing themes: the connection between human beliefs about animals’ minds and human ethical behavior, and the challenges and conditions for knowing the minds of animals. By inviting readers to compare and contrast multiple, uncommon points of view, this collection offers a unique encounter with the diverse perspectives and theories now shaping animal studies.

Chance ordained that Denis Diderot (1713-1784) was not only a philosopher, playwright and writer, but also a salonnier. In other words, an art critic. In 1759, his friend Grimm entrusted him with a project that forced him to acquire ‘thoughtful notions concerning painting and sculpture’ and to refine ‘art terms, so familiar in his words yet so vague in his mind’. Diderot wrote artistic reviews of exhibitions – Salons – that were organized bi-annually at the Louvre by the Academie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture. These reviews, published in the "Correspondence Litteraire", were Did.
