Soft cover. Zustand: New. Today, Hindi and Urdu are considered two separate languages, each with its own script, history, literary canon and cultural orientation. Yet, pre-colonial India was a deeply multilingual society with multiple traditions of knowledge and literary production. Historically the divisions between Hindi and U…rdu were not as sharp as we imagine them today. The essays in this volume reassess the definition and identity of language in the light of this. Its aim is to move away from the received historical narratives of Hindi and Urdu, and look afresh at the textual material available in order to attempt a more complex picture of the north Indian literary culture that is more attuned to the nuances of register, accent, language choice, genre and audiences. Various factors that would lead one to consider a broader range of texts and tastes that lay before poets and writers in those times are examined. For instance, why did a Sant write in Nagari Rekhta? Why did a Persian poet or an Avadhi Sufi mix Hindavi and Persian? Whatever their motivations, all these cases speak of an awareness of multiple literary models. It also implies a keenness towards experimenting with other literary or oral traditions that go against the purist intentions of modern literary historians. This volume thus looks at the rearticulation of language and its identity in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and will be useful for students of modern Indian history, language studies and cultural studies.

American illustrator and author Esther Francesca "Fanny" Alexander (1837-1917) became a confidant of John Ruskin while she was living in Florence in 1882. The fact that he edited this book so quickly after their firs…t introduction, speaks of his high regard for her abilities. He shortly thereafter purchased the 122 drawings that she had prepared for Roadside Songs of Tuscany.

Softcover. Zustand: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 16 x 23 cm, 280 pages, 28 color & 23 b/w illustrations. - Museums of contemporary artas they have been defined, activated, and understood over the past thirty yearsare in need of a reassessment to re-think the traditional notion of the "museum." With its traditional core tasks of col…lection and conservation, this historic category stands in contrast to the term "contemporary." This volume takes a variety of complementary perspectives on today's museology as it reflects upon the paradoxes underlying the very concept of the museum of contemporary art. Composed of three chapters"Now," "Tomorrow," and "Flux"and gathering together original essays, extensive conversations, as well as canonical texts, this anthology addresses questions regarding the roles and tasks of the contemporary art museum. It discusses its double character as a site of both production and conservation, and emphasizes its relation to different public spheres. It also explores ways of dealing with the standards, norms, and regulations that emerge from the practices of collecting, organizing, and educating.

Hardcover. Zustand: NEW. 1st. Pictorial boards, 185 pages, illustrations (some colour); 29 cm. BRAND NEW. A fine copy. Still in publisher's shrinkwrap. A large-format coffee-table book. Richly illustrated with colour plates. *** "How do today's artists understand and depict notions of love? As witnessed in this compelling book,…they often transcend traditional European romantic notions to create representations of love in less familiar manifestations. The title of this volume, The Progress of Love, refers to a group of 18th-century paintings by Jean-Honore Fragonard, who represented love as a contemporary phenomenon rather than in the guise of allegory or fiction. Today's artists go further. Exploring the forces that shape our conceptions of love, The Progress of Love brings together the work of 30 artists from Africa, Europe, the African diaspora, and the New World. Beautiful color images show works in a range of media by a dazzling array of contemporary artists, including Kelechi Amadi-Obi, Zoulikha Bouabdellah, Sophie Calle, Mary Ellen Carroll, Kendell Geers, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Romuald Hazoum, Zanele Muholi, Wura-Natasha Ogunji, and Yinka Shonibare." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: The progress of love, by Kristina Van Dyke; Reflections on love in Africa, by Elias K.
