Rinaldo and Armida on a Chariot Drawn by Dragons Pen and Brown Ink, Over Traces of an Underdrawing in Pencil, on Buff Paper, with Framing Lines in Brown Ink
Luigi SABATELLI (Florence 1772 - Milan 1850) Rinaldo and Armida on a Chariot Drawn by Dragons Pen and brown ink, over traces of an underdrawing in pencil, on buff paper, with framing lines in brown ink. Signed Luigi Sabatelli fece at the lower left. 424 x 699 mm. (16 1/4 x 27 1/2 in.) [image] 480 x 754 mm. (18 7/8 x 29 3/4 in.) [sheet] In his posthumously published autobiography, Luigi Sabatelli recalled of his youthful period in Rome in the 1790s that he became well known for his finished drawings in pen and ink. The sale of these scenes from Greek, Roman and Florentine history, as well as episodes from Homer, Dante, Shakespeare, Milton and the Old Testament, earned him some one hundred zecchini over four years. His highly finished pen drawings, and the engravings derived from them, were greatly admired by his contemporaries, and many of these independent drawings were sold to collectors. Sabatelli’s bold and inventive draughtsmanship reveals the influence of Michelangelo, as well as the Anglo-Swiss artist Johann Heinrich Fuseli. A talented printmaker in his own right, Sabatelli also provided finished drawings for other engravers. Among his engraved designs are the series of Pensieri diversi, published in Rome in 1795, and The Plague of Florence, inspired by Boccaccio’s Decameron and published in 1801. A superb example of the vigour of Luigi Sabatelli’s pen draughtsmanship, and what has been aptly described as the artist’s ‘virtuoso calligraphy’, this very large drawing may be dated to the artist’s years in Rome, between 1789 and 1794, and in particular towards the end of that period.

Armida Abducts the Sleeping Rinaldo”
“Armida abducts the sleeping Rinaldo” Neutron autoradiography is capable of revealing different paint layers piled-up during the creation of the painting, whereas different pigments can be represented on separate films due to a contrast variation created by the differences in the half-life times of the isotopes. Thus, in many cases the individual brushstroke applied by the artist is made visible, as well as changes made during the painting process, so-called pentimentis. When investigating paintings that have been reliably authenticated, it is possible to identify the particular style of an artist. By an example - a painting from the French painter Nicolas Poussin (1594–1665), belonging to the Berlin Picture Gallery - the efficiency of neutron autoradiography is demonstrated as a non- destructive method. Fig. 1: Nicolas Poussin, Replica, “Armida abducts the sleeping Rinaldo”, (c. 1637), Picture Gallery Berlin, 120 x 150 cm2, Cat No. 486 The painting show scenes from the bible and from classical antiquity. In 1625 the legend of the sorceress Armida and the crusader Rinaldo had inspired Poussin to a painting named “Armida and Rinaldo”, now owned by the Dulwich Picture Gallery in London, that has been identified as an original. In contrast, the painting from the Berlin Picture Gallery “Armida abducts the sleeping Rinaldo” (Fig. 1) shows a different but similar scene, and was listed in the Berlin Gallery’s catalogue as a copy. To clarify the open question of the ascription a neutron radiography investigation was carried out. In Fig. 2, one of the autoradiographs is depicted. Fig. 2: Nicolas Poussin, “Armida abducts the sleeping Rinaldo”, 1st neutron autoradiography assembled from 12 image plate records: in order to investigate the whole picture, two separated irradiations were carried out and finally recomposed.

Les Talens Lyriques the Ensemble Les Talens Lyriques, Which Takes Its
Les Talens Lyriques The ensemble Les Talens Lyriques, which takes its name from the subtitle of Jean-Philippe Rameau’s opera Les Fêtes d’Hébé (1739), was formed in 1991 by the harpsichordist and conductor Christophe Rousset. Championing a broad vocal and instrumental repertoire, ranging from early Baroque to the beginnings of Romanticism, the musicians of Les Talens Lyriques aim to throw light on the great masterpieces of musical history, while providing perspective by presenting rarer or little known works that are important as missing links in the European musical heritage. This musicological and editorial work, which contributes to its renown, is a priority for the ensemble. Les Talens Lyriques perform to date works by Monteverdi (L'Incoronazione di Poppea, Il Ritorno d’Ulisse in patria, L’Orfeo), Cavalli (La Didone, La Calisto), Landi (La Morte d'Orfeo), Handel (Scipione, Riccardo Primo, Rinaldo, Admeto, Giulio Cesare, Serse, Arianna in Creta, Tamerlano, Ariodante, Semele, Alcina), Lully (Persée, Roland, Bellérophon, Phaéton, Amadis, Armide, Alceste), Desmarest (Vénus et Adonis), Mondonville (Les Fêtes de Paphos), Cimarosa (Il Mercato di Malmantile, Il Matrimonio segreto), Traetta (Antigona, Ippolito ed Aricia), Jommelli (Armida abbandonata), Martin y Soler (La Capricciosa corretta, Il Tutore burlato), Mozart (Mitridate, Die Entführung aus dem Serail, Così fan tutte, Die Zauberflöte), Salieri (La Grotta di Trofonio, Les Danaïdes, Les Horaces, Tarare), Rameau (Zoroastre, Castor et Pollux, Les Indes galantes, Platée, Pygmalion), Gluck

Quaderni D'italianistica : Revue Officielle De La Société Canadienne
Maiilyn Migiel Secrets of a Sorceress: Tasso's Armida Armida appears in Canto 4 of Torquato Tasso 's Gerusalemme liber- ata. Her mission? To disseminate confusion in the Christian camp. This she accomplishes with expert techniques. She is both sorceress and seductress, hke the characters of classical and Renaissance lit- erature on whom her character is modelled: Circe, Medea, Alcina, and so forth. But though Armida is introduced as a sorceress and has infernal and magical connections through her uncle Idraote, she does not rely on her magic in order to entice the Christian soldiers into accompanying her and therefore abandoning their cause. Magic is not what keeps Rinaldo, the Christian warrior with whom she falls in love, in her power; nor is Armida' s magic effective when Rinaldo abandons her in Canto 16. Thus it seems that Armida' s magical powers come to be viewed as a function of youth and sexual charm, which can fade. But even youth and sexuality, important as they are to Armida's temporary victory, do not fully explain the tenacity of her hold on her Christian opponents. Armida's power over the Chris- tian warriors is particularly strong precisely because neither magic nor sexuality is her primary tool, and because her victims remain unaware of the source of her power. As I propose to show here, Armida's initial triumphs over the Christians and the fascination she exercises as a character derive from the unthreatened superiority of her gaze and from her control of the linguistic medium, in particular from the irrefutability of the story she narrates about her origins.

Competing Philosophies in Calderon's El Mayor Encanto, Amor
Bulletin of Spanish Studies, Volume LXXXVII, Number 2, 2010 The Figure of Circe and the Power of Knowledge: Competing Philosophies in Calderoń’s El mayor encanto, amor JONATHAN ELLIS Oklahoma State University At first, Calderoń’s mythological play follows the well-known story of Homer’s Odyssey. On their way home from the Trojan War, Ulises1 and his crew stop at the island of the witch Circe. Most of the Greeks search the island and arrive at the palace of Circe as their leader waits at the beach. Rather than be wary, they choose to indulge their desires and baser natures. As we know, Circe transforms all but one of them into beasts with a potion. However, from this point on Calderoń begins to introduce significant changes into the story known from both Homer and Ovid. When Ulises confronts Circe, she gives him also a potion, but he does not drink, having learned of its danger and having learned how to render it useless.2 Defeated, Circe cries out, ‘¿Quień cielos airados, / quieńma´s ha sabido que yo?’ (1515a).3 This early passage is key, indicating that she recognizes knowledge to be the basis of her power with which she attempts to control all of nature, the elements and men. However, 1 I have retained the Spanish spelling of the names throughout, in order to clearly distinguish between Calderoń’s characters and those of Classical literature. 2 In Homer, Odysseus is aided by Hermes who provides the moly root as protection against the effects of Circe’s potion.

Torquato Tasso, La Gierusalemme Liberata, 1590 Special Collections Featured Item for January 2005 by Tim Eggington, Former Rare Books Librarian
Tim Eggington Section name Librar y Torquato Tasso, La Gierusalemme liberata, 1590 Special Collections featured item for January 2005 by Tim Eggington, former Rare Books Librarian Tasso, Torquato,1544-1595. La Gierusalemme liberata di Torquato Tasso / con le figure di Bernado Castello ; e le annotationi di Scipio Gentili, e di Giulio Gustavini. In Genova : [appresso Girolamo Bartoli], 1590. Item held in the Reserve Collection, University of Reading Library Special Collections First published in 1581, Gierusalemme liberata is one of the most celebrated literary works of the late Renaissance. Following the epic ancient tradition, it recounts the capture of Jerusalem by the crusaders in 1099. Gierusalemme liberata strongly influenced the writings of later authors such as Spenser and Milton, among many others. It also provided the subject for operas by composers such as Monteverdi (Il Combattimento di Tancredi e Clorinda,1624), Handel (Rinaldo, 1711) and Rossini (Armida, 1817). Published during Tasso’s lifetime, this rare edition is particularly admired for its 20 full-page illustrations. These were engraved by Giacomo Franco and Agostini Carraci after designs by Bernardo Castelli. Bound in contemporary vellum, Reading’s copy also includes various indications of its provenance. One of them reveals the book to have resided in ‘Napoli Ottobre 1726’. ©University of Reading 2007 Page 1 Born in Sorrento, Tasso is remembered principally for his two masterpieces, Aminta (1573) and Gierusalemme liberata (1581). For much of his career Tasso resided at the court of the Duke of Ferrara, seven years of which were spent in confinement for apparent insanity. Tasso was particularly troubled about the reception of his works and the fate of his manuscripts, over which he lost control while confined.

During the first decade of the eighteenth century, Italian opera successfully penetrated the English theatrical tradition, and by 1711, with the premiere of Handel’s Rinaldo, the foreign art had conquered its English audience.2 However, this was not a peaceful conquest. The importation of Italian opera provoked British criticism, censure, and ridicule as it emerged on the London stage. British authors approached their arguments in different ways, some verging on or even embracing xenophobia, others attempting to laugh Italian opera out of the country.

Jerusalem Delivered 1St Edition Pdf, Epub, Ebook
JERUSALEM DELIVERED 1ST EDITION PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Torquato Tasso | 9780801863233 | | | | | Jerusalem Delivered 1st edition PDF Book Now, years later, Anthony Esolen presents a new translation that transforms 'Jerusalem Delivered' into an English-language masterpiece. Contemporary Calf. Anthony Esolen is a professor of English at Providence College. Or is he actually the originator? Tasso's choice of subject matter, an actual historic conflict between Christians and Muslims albeit with fantastical elements added , had a historical grounding and created compositional implications the narrative subject matter had a fixed endpoint and could not be endlessly spun out in multiple volumes that are lacking in other Renaissance epics. Very good condition. Epic poems, and writings of this nature, deserve to be read with focused investment, by dwelling on the words selected, the scenes painted. Also entertaining. Reading epic poetry is always difficult, but I was surprised at how easily I read Tasso's Jerusalem Delivered. Violence can be righteous. Fairfax tried to fit Tasso's verse into Spenserian stanzas, adding to and subtracting from the original and often changing Tasso's meaning. The Muslim foes are given what was to me a surprising amount of respect and dignity. The first attempt to translate Gerusalemme liberata into English was made by Richard Carew , who published his version of the first five cantos as Godfrey of Bulloigne or the recoverie of Hierusalem in I recommend Edward Fairfax's seventeenth-century translation, if you can find it. Dec 31, Anand rated it it was amazing. Torquato Tasso. Absolutely beautiful work, and my favorite epic poem - hands down.
