Wetering, Ernst. Rembrandt. The Painter Thinking. Edited by Wardy Poelstra. NL Amsterdam: Amsterdam University Press, 2016. http://dx.doi.org/10.5117/9789089645616.

Full text
Abstract:
Even during the artist's lifetime, contemporary art lovers considered Rembrandt van Rijn (1606-1669) to be an exceptional artist. In this revelatory sequel to the acclaimed Rembrandt: The Painter at Work, renowned Rembrandt authority Ernst van de Wetering investigates the painter's considerations that determined the striking changes in his development from an early age onwards. This gorgeously illustrated book explores how Rembrandt achieved mastery by systematic exploration of the 'foundations of the art of painting'. According to written sources from the seventeenth century, which were largely misinterpreted until now, these 'foundations' were considered essential at that time. From his first endeavours in painting, Rembrandt embarked on a journey past these foundations, thus becoming the 'pittore famoso', whom Count Cosimo the Medici visited at the end of his life. Rembrandt never stopped searching for solutions to the pictorial problems that confronted him; this led over time to radical changes that cannot simply be attributed to stylistic evolution or natural development. In a quest as rigorous and novel as the artist's, Van de Wetering reveals how Rembrandt became the revolutionary painter that would continue to fascinate the art world. This ground breaking exploration reconstructs Rembrandt's theories and methods, shedding new light both on the artist's exceptional accomplishments and on the theory and practice of painting in the Dutch Golden Age.

Everyone who is interested in the art of painting should read this phenomenal book, because it was written with incredible knowledge and experience on the subject. It shows in a clear and simple way how Rembrandt worked and the things he had to take into account. At the same time it offers a fantastic sample of Rembrandt's life's work, thanks to the well-chosen selection of illustrations. David Rijser, NRC Handelsblad

Legaspi, Michael C. The School of Solomon. Oxford University Press, 2018. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190885120.003.0007.

Full text
Abstract:
Aristobulus and the author of Wisdom of Solomon conceived of wisdom in much the same way that earlier Greek, non-Jewish thinkers did: as knowledge of the whole—of things human, cosmic, and divine—which underlies, requires, and informs the life of virtue. Moreover, they readily identified sophia with wisdom as found in the Jewish scriptures, especially in the figure of Solomon and in the Pentateuchal narratives. Their engagement with the scriptures yields a wisdom program centered on rational monotheism, virtue, and the hope of immortality. This program, however, was also characterized by a strong emphasis on the national form of wisdom. In its capacity as ruling knowledge, wisdom must also belong to human leaders. Understanding wisdom in these terms, as that which brings the metaphysical, cosmic, social, and personal into harmony, Hellenistic Jews commended their way of life to the nations.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter reads Duncan as a paradigmatic test-case for re-seeing the complexities of “naturalness” in the early twentieth century in relation to animality, performance, and an aesthetics that is specifically posthumanist. Rather than a naïve essentialist, Duncan should be viewed as a kind of vitalist who understood art as emerging from the vibrancy of matter itself and the drift or transfer of forces from earth to animal, from animal to human. By examining her animal and cosmic imagery and by discussing questions such as barefootedness and nudity as specific markers of animality in Duncan’s aesthetic, I frame her dance theory as exhibiting a sophisticated posthumanist artistic position. Recognizing these elements of her artistic theories helps us re-evaluate the way Duncan has been viewed because of the natural strains in her work, but also opens new lines of inquiry regarding animality and modern dance.

Slusser, George. Galactic Center One. University of Illinois Press, 2017. http://dx.doi.org/10.5406/illinois/9780252038228.003.0005.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines the epic scope of Gregory Benford's series of novels commonly called the Galactic Center saga. The works that make up the Galactic Center series span nineteen years of Benford's career. They encompass as well a changing landscape of science fiction (SF), in which space adventure, once central to the genre, becomes a near relic. The first novel in the series, In the Ocean of Night, reflects the period's spirit of high adventure in the promise of space travel. In the subsequent novels, produced in the cyberpunk era, Benford continues to pursue the question of mankind's condition in the face of science's genuinely expanding universe. The central figure of Benford's Galactic series is Nigel Walmsley, the NASA astronaut who dominates In the Ocean of Night and its sequel, Across the Sea of Suns(1984), then returns in the strange timescape of the final novel, Sailing Bright Eternity (1996). This chapter considers E. E. Smith's Lensman series as Benford's forerunner, in the sense that it has scientific extrapolation and a story with genuine cosmic sweep.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter looks at one mechanism through which animals can dramatically improve their karmic situations, in spite of their low status and abilities. In some stories, an animal physically sees the Buddha, spontaneously gives rise to prasāda (faith), dies shortly thereafter, and is reborn in one of the lower heavens that populate the Buddhist cosmos. On the one hand, the mechanism of prasāda provides a loophole that bypasses the animal’s lack of moral agency and allows it to escape from its animal rebirth. On the other hand, the narratives that illustrate this mechanism show a strong concern with limiting what an animal can achieve by this means in order to safeguard the prerogative of being human. This chapter analyzes five narratives from the Divyāvadāna and Avadānaśataka in which this theme occurs.

Gorey, Matthew M. Atomism in the Aeneid. Oxford University Press, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780197518748.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
This book examines the role of philosophical metaphor and allegory in the Aeneid, focusing on tendentious allusions to Lucretian atomism. It argues that Virgil, drawing upon a popular strain of anti-atomist and anti-Epicurean arguments in Greek philosophy, deploys atomic imagery as a symbol of cosmic and political disorder. The first chapter of this study investigates the development of metaphors and analogies in philosophical texts ranging from Aristotle to Cicero that equate atomism with cosmological caprice and instability. The following three chapters track how Virgil applies this interpretation of Epicurean physics to the Aeneid, in which chaotic atomic imagery is associated with various challenges to the poem’s dominant narrative of divine order and Roman power. For Aeneas, the specter of atomic disorder arises at moments of distress and hesitation, while the association of various non-Trojan characters with atomism characterizes them as agents of violent disorder needing to be contained or vanquished. The final chapter summarizes findings, showing how Virgilian allusion to Lucretian physics often conflates poetic, political, and cosmological narratives, blurring the boundaries between their respective modes of discourse and revealing a general preference for hierarchical, teleological models of order.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines Gregory Benford's series of science fiction novels that could be classified as “science thrillers”: Cosm (1999), The Martian Race (1999), and Eater (2000). In these novels, some strange and often menacing occurrence (such as the approach of an alien object to Earth) triggers conflict between scientists, government interests, and global politics. Benford's scientific thrillers—in their detailed descriptions of how science works, how it is conducted in the laboratory, and how this interacts with personal conflicts and institutional politics—hearken back to an important current in his fiction that began with In the Ocean of Night and was perfected in Timescape (1980). Seamlessly integrating social activity and scientific research, Timescape represents a moment of supreme balance between the demands of science and of fiction.
