Abstract:

What, exactly, identifies the ekphrastic at work? Some basic definitive properties can be agreed: ekphrasis is a descriptive trope that brings what it describes vividly before the imaginative gaze of its audience. It is through its vivid evocation of a scene or object unseen to this audience that the ekphrasis fulfils its purpose, and makes an emotional impact upon them. The affective power of ekphrasis thus draws its audience into the fictional world of its narrative, blurring the boundaries necessarily erected by its verbal frame, while at the same time the focus on crafted objects that we o

Abstract:

The interaction of arts which poets, writers, artists, scholars and philosophers have always paid considerable attention, has gained popularity recently and it has been given serious consideration in art history, literary and cultural studies, and aesthetics. Some researchers explain a growing interest in the phenomenon of increasing significance of visuality in modern culture. The aim of the article is to clarify the status quo in the study of ekphrasis in literary and cultural studies. To achieve the aim pursued, the following research methods have been used: cultural-aesthetic, comparative

Abstract:

This paper deals with ekphrasis in the poetry and essays by Svetislav Mandic, in their particular form, method of creation, and function, in relation to the author’s profile and the specific position of his oeuvre in terms of literary history. The ekphrastic nature of Mandic’s oeuvre is discussed using several characteristic examples from his essays and lyrical poetry. At the same time, what is emphasised is the fact that various forms of picturesque and iconic descriptions in Mandic’s oeuvre are not necessarily ekphrastic, which means that particular attention should be paid not to exaggerate

Abstract: Ekphrasis has long been a topic of interest to literary scholars, but until quite recently medieval ekphrasis has existed on the periphery of most accounts of it. This article explores the distinctive nature of medieval ekphrasis in passages of description in the Middle English poetry of Geoffrey Chaucer. It argues that Middle English poetry was underpinned by a poetics of craft which made later ekphrastic theorisations, especially the concept of the 'paragone'—the confrontation of the arts, especially poetry and painting—problematic. It argues that Chaucer uses ekphrasis as a type o

Abstract:

The article explores instances of actual ekphrasis (verbal representation of actual works of art) in biographies of the 18th century British socialite Georgiana, Duchess of Devonshire. Through the case study approach, we argue that ekphrasis serves as a stylistic device in biographies and helps shape the reader’s perception of the subject. Published in different decades of the 20th century, the four biographies of the Duchess illustrate historical move of the biography from novelization towards factual narrative. The study leads to a conclusion that, in the analyzed biographies, the use of ekp

Abstract:

For centuries art and poetry have been inspiring each other and the relation between word and image constantly fascinates the poets. The literary world has given poems that tackle artwork the name: ekphrasis. Ekphrasis represents a rich hunting ground for references, allusions, and inspiration for poets. However, ekphrasis is powerfully gendered that privileged male gaze. Traditionally, the male is given the strong position as the gazer, while the woman is locked in her predetermined role that of the beautiful, silent, submissive, gazed upon. Women poets refuse to adhere to the gendered

The article discusses the semantic aspects of ekphrasis and meta-ekphrasis in Julian Barnes’s essay “Géricault: Catastrophe into Art” from the cognitive poetics perspective. In his essay, Barnes dwells upon the history and interpretations of Géricault’s masterpiece which represents the survivors of the wreck of a French frigate in 1816. The aim of the study is to reveal the semantic integration of ekphrastic contexts (those parts of the essay which provide description of a painting) and meta-ekphrastic contexts (those parts of the essay which are not descriptions of a painting per se, however

Abstract:

In order to fully question the issue of ekphrasis in John Keats’s ”Ode on a Grecian Urn”, this paper begins by giving a brief historical and theoretical framework of ekphrasis, and then analyses a concrete ekphrasis in Keats’s poem. Historically speaking, the meaning of ekphrasis made a large shift in modern times compared to the original. Ancient Progymnasmata do not narrow the term based on subject matter, but rather define it using the category of vividness, enárgeia, and only later through the examinations of ancient ekphrasis of works of spatial arts, in literary texts as well as in rheto

Poetry, Media and the Pain of Others. On Some Ekphrases in Ghayath Almadhoun’s and Marie Silkeberg’s poems The article discusses ekphrases and the mediations of the pain of others in the poetry of Ghayath Almadhoun and Marie Silkeberg. One aspect that is explored is the relationship between poetry and visual media like film and photography in the study of ekphrasis. Another main aspect discussed is the role of the ekphrasis in mediated depiction of pain, suffering, oppression, and conflicts that take place at a distance from the experienced (and privileged) subject.

The object of investigation is ekphrasis as presented in the novel by S. Maugham “The Moon and Sixpence”. Specific features of ekphrasis, its functions and linguistic means of expression are subjected to analysis. The novel contains five ekphrastic inclusions – descriptions of the pictures painted by the main character: a full-length portrait, a landscape, a wall-painting, a fruit-piece, a family portrait.

Abstract:

Situated in the field of creative writing, this project identifies and conceptualises biographical ekphrasis: an emergent subgenre of ekphrasis in which poets respond to both a work of art and to the biography of the artist who created it. This thesis comprises an exegesis, which interrogates the complex relationships between artwork, artist, poet, and audience, and a collection of poems, Reliefs, which won the Thomas Shapcott Prize. Through practice-led research, this project elucidates both biographical ekphrasis’s unique amalgam of fact and fiction and its particular temporal complexities,
