Abstract:

Abstract This article discusses printed author portraits of women writers as vehicles of public image in the male-dominated eighteenth-century book market. It shows how Dutch women writers responded to the growing demand for author portraits and used their portrait engravings to shape their public image. It proved to be a fine line between showcasing literary aspirations and maintaining female modesty.

Abstract:

Portraits of heroes and leaders have been among the most widely diffused and deeply cherished of all political symbols. The political functions of such portraits grow out of distinctive semiotic qualities that set the portrait apart from other types of symbols. Judging from their public reception, George Washington's portraits — and, we believe, many state portraits — have the qualities of likeness, manifestiveness, moral efficaciousness, and sacredness that traditionally were ascribed to religious icons. From these qualities the state portrait gains a special power to bridge the distances of

Abstract:

The relationship between observers' taste and the sitter's face orientation as function of sitter sex in painted portraits was investigated. The historical tendency in portraiture is that the sitter's left side of the face is more likely than the right to be turned towards the viewer and this side bias is stronger with women than with men. Correctly oriented and reversed museum portraits were viewed by subjects who gave ratings of “liking” the portrait as a whole (Experiment 1) and for “attractiveness” of the sitter (Experiment 2). Only portraits of women showed a left-right difference with ri

PurposeRacialised misrepresentation circulated en masse can be understood as a form of symbolic and cultural violence. Such misrepresentations create a dominant cultural narrative that positions people of African background as violent and troubled and therefore incompatible with Australian society. Young people from various groups have been using arts-for-social-change to challenge and dismantle these imposed misrepresentation and reconstruct narratives that reflect their lived experiences. The purpose of this paper is to explore sound portraits, both the process and product, by tracing the jo

Abstract:

Since the second half of the XVIth century, the number of female artists and sculptors gradually increased. Their work was extremely important already because for the first time it claimed success in a field where, until then, the fame had belonged exclusively to men. Self-portraits in the XVIth century became an extremely popular form of artistic creation among painters, including women. In general, the practice of artists putting their signatures on paintings did not go beyond the Italian tradition. However, it can be assumed that witnessing their work was an important moment for women of th

Abstract:

Thanks to the independence, in Uzbekistan a new era in the art of portraiture has started. In the portraits created during the years of independence, the idea of personality has completely changed. Instead of an idealized image of a person reflecting the ideas of the old system, the portraits depict a real person - an independent person with oriental lyricism, deep philosophical views, as well as an extremely natural and sincere person. The number of women portrait painters is growing. During the years of independence, creative freedom, searches in art have led to the development of different

The thesis concerns representations of Roman women of the imperial period depicted in the guise of a divinity. Portraits of women of all social levels have been included as have representations in any media excluding numismatic evidence. The latter, with its specific contextual characteristics, is only included and discussed as comparanda for the main body of material. The juxtaposition of a recognisable reality and a heightened reality in these representations raises a variety of interpretative questions: whether it is possible to establish a correlation between the mythological interpretatio

Abstract:

AbstractHow women tried to secure a place in the early modern male-dominated intellectual field has been the subject of numerous studies over the last decade. The most visible sign of their growing presence in the intellectual field—their printed portraits—has, however, received surprisingly little critical attention. This chapter discusses printed portraits of learned women as vehicles of public image in the male-dominated Republic of Letters. It unravels how the inclusion of the likenesses of four prominent contemporary learned women—Luise Gottsched, Emilie Du Châtelet, Laura Bassi and Magdalena Sibylla Rieger—in one of the most ambitious printed portrait galleries of the eighteenth century, the Bilder-Sal, contributed to their representation as intellectual authority in the Republic of Letters. Especially due to their visual nature their portraits proved ideal vehicles to readily disseminated representations of female intellectual authority across regional, national and linguistic borders, finding their ways to the study rooms of prominent scholars. As such, they contributed to a more inclusive image of the intellectual across Europe. It remained, however, a fine line between embodying intellectual authority and maintaining female modesty. Besides reflections on their intellectual capacities, these women’s portraits continued to spark discussions on their physical—and evidently female—appearances.

Abstract:

Abstract Women appear throughout all of the Gospels, sometimes unnamed or unacknowledged. While first-century Palestine was patriarchal, women often had more autonomy and independence than modern readers sometimes accord them. This essay examines the question of locating the women in the Gospels before turning to stories of several notable women, comparing, when possible, the differing reports of their presence in the different Synoptic Gospels. Among those treated here are the Syrophoenician or Canaanite woman; the woman who anoints Jesus; the woman with the flow of blood and Jairus’s daughter; Mary Magdalene; Mary, the mother of Jesus; and Mary and Martha. The treatment of the women varies between the gospels, with greater authority granted the women in the Gospel of Mark, while women in the Gospel of Luke, while numerous, are reduced in authority.
