The Hospital has been pulled down, but ten years ago it was still casting a gloom over the porch of Notre-Dame, and its dilapidated facade shut out the view of the river from those who came to admire the cathedral immortalised by Victor Hugo — country people or foreigners ; these latter, for true Parisians do not much affect show buildings, and do not take it into their heads to ramble about the Cite\ A poor neighbourhood, inhabited by people of very small means, who rarely leave their homes, and do not appreciate the architectural beauties of the church built in the reign of Philippe-Auguste. At this period, however, the lonely and deserted Place was a scene of animation on Thursdays and Sundays, the days when the hospital patients' friends were admitted ; but these receptions, authorised by the governing body, were in strong contrast to those which draw luxurious equipages to the doors of the mansions of the Faubourg Saint-Germain. There was a ceaseless hurrying hither and thither of poor wretches who arrived and took their departure on foot ; but in spite of this, on those days the precincts put on an almost festive appearance, and the scene was well worthy of notice. One fine Thursday in spring, in the year of grace 1874, two gentlemen were feasting their eyes on it from one of the highest windows in the long hospital buildings. The younger one, in his shirt sleeves, was smoking his pipe as he leaned on the window sill ; he was at home, for there were rooms in the hospital set apart for the medical staff, and he had been an occupant during the six months which had elapsed since he had been received on it, after a most brilliant examination. He was a comely youth, and bore, his state of deshabille notwith- standing, what one might call a look of distinction. He had large black eyes and that pale complexion which romantic women find so attractive. The other, who was standing at his side, and was not smoking, was a man of about forty, tall, thin, and with a long and bony face, sharply divided by a formidable pair of bristling moustachios a la Victor Emmanuel ; he wore, moreover, a tight-fitting black frock-coat, of a military cut, an,d a broad-brimmed bell-shaped hat.

  • Reality Is Broken a Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World E JANE Mcgonigal
    Reality Is Broken a Why Games Make Us Better and How They Can Change the World E JANE McGONIGAL THE PENGUIN PRESS New York 2011 ADVANCE PRAISE FOR Reality Is Broken “Forget everything you know, or think you know, about online gaming. Like a blast of fresh air, Reality Is Broken blows away the tired stereotypes and reminds us that the human instinct to play can be harnessed for the greater good. With a stirring blend of energy, wisdom, and idealism, Jane McGonigal shows us how to start saving the world one game at a time.” —Carl Honoré, author of In Praise of Slowness and Under Pressure “Reality Is Broken is the most eye-opening book I read this year. With awe-inspiring ex­ pertise, clarity of thought, and engrossing writing style, Jane McGonigal cleanly exploded every misconception I’ve ever had about games and gaming. If you thought that games are for kids, that games are squandered time, or that games are dangerously isolating, addictive, unproductive, and escapist, you are in for a giant surprise!” —Sonja Lyubomirsky, Ph.D., professor of psychology at the University of California, Riverside, and author of The How of Happiness: A Scientific Approach to Getting the Life You Want “Reality Is Broken will both stimulate your brain and stir your soul. Once you read this remarkable book, you’ll never look at games—or yourself—quite the same way.” —Daniel H. Pink, author of Drive and A Whole New Mind “The path to becoming happier, improving your business, and saving the world might be one and the same: understanding how the world’s best games work.

Cette contradiction est au cœur de la réception de l’artiste, de son temps comme aujourd’hui. Ainsi, lorsqu’en 1855 il fut offert à Delacroix de rassembler l’essentiel de ses peintures dans une présentation rétrospective de son œuvre, au sein de l’Exposition universelle, parallèlement à Ingres, Decamps et Horace Vernet [Le Salon Delacroix à l’Exposition universelle de 1855], il en exclut La Mort de Sardanapale , son œuvre la plus romantique, que personne n’avait défendue au Salon de 1827-1828 [Delacroix, La Mort de Sardanapale , 1827-1828, Salon de 1827-1828, Paris, Louvre]. Il se rangeait ainsi, d’une certaine manière, à l’opinion de ses détracteurs, en ne présentant pas une de ses oeuvres majeures (et l’un de ses plus grands tableaux).

  • Romanticism and the Portrait
    Diploma Lecture Series 2013 Revolution to Romanticism: European Art and Culture 1750-1850 Romanticism and the portrait Dr Christopher Allen 23/24 October 2013 Lecture summary: It would be tempting, but facile, to contrast the spontaneity, energy and individuality of the Romantic portrait with the artificiality and formality of earlier ones. In reality portraits have reflected or embodied complex and subtle ideas of what makes an individual from the time of the rediscovery of the art in the Renaissance. But how portraits are painted changes in step with evolving conceptions of what constitutes our character, of how character relates to social role, and how individuals interact with their fellows. In other words, an understanding of the history of portraiture really requires some appreciation of the physiological, psychological, epistemological and even political beliefs of the relevant periods. Thus Renaissance portraiture rests fundamentally on the humoral theory of physiology and psychology, eighteenth century portraits reflect the interest in empiricist psychology, and romantic portraits embody a new sense of the individual as a dynamic and often solitary agent in the worlds of nature and of human history.
