Book Synopsis European Literature from Romanticism to Postmodernism by : Martin Travers
Download or read book European Literature from Romanticism to Postmodernism written by Martin Travers. This book was released on 2006-06-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European Literature from Romanticism to Postmodernism is an anthology of key theoretical writings by the major representatives of the schools and movements of recent European literature. Each chapter is devoted to one particular school of movement from within the broad body of literature, from romanticism, realism and modernism though to the literature of political engagement of the 1920s and 1930s, and the more recent initiative of postmodernism. These texts are approached both on their own terms as individual formulations of the goals and procedures (literary, aesthetic and political) that characterized the work of these writers, and as key documents of the literary school or movement to which these writers belonged.

Book Synopsis Frameworks for Mallarmé by : Gayle Zachmann
Download or read book Frameworks for Mallarmé written by Gayle Zachmann. This book was released on 2008-11-05. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Countering the conventional image of the deliberately obscure "ivory-tower poet," Frameworks for Mallarmé presents Stéphane Mallarmé as a journalist and critic who was actively engaged with the sociocultural and technological shifts of his era. Gayle Zachmann introduces a writer whose aesthetic was profoundly shaped by contemporary innovations in print and visual culture, especially the nascent art of photography. She analyzes the preeminence of the visual in conjunction with Mallarmé's quest for "scientific" language, and convincingly links the poet's production to a nineteenth-century understanding of cognition that is articulated in terms of optical perception. The result is a distinctly modern recuperation of the Horatian doctrine of ut pictura poesis in Mallarmé's poetry and his circumstantial writings.

Book Synopsis Claude Debussy and the Poets by : Arthur Wenk
Download or read book Claude Debussy and the Poets written by Arthur Wenk. This book was released on 1976-01-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paul Dukas wrote about Debussy that the strongest influence he experienced was that of the poets, not that of the musicians. This book undertakes to demonstrate that thesis by studying Debussy's settings of songs by Banville, Verlaine, Baudelaire, Mallarmé, Louÿs, and Debussy himself. A particular insight may be gained in the comparison of six poems by Verlaine set to music by both Fauré and Debussy. The book includes a poetic/musical analysis of Debussy's Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun, based on the poem by Mallarmé.
