  • Images of Water” That Will Introduce Us to a Wide Range of Expressive Landscapes
    THEMATIC ROUTES Images Water, the archetypal and essential human resource par excellence, has been depicted in all cultures since the dawn of humanity up to the present of Water day. Its wide range of symbolic, sociological, literary and aesthetic Esther Moñivas Mayor connotations within the history of Western painting means that it can be approached from the viewpoint of numerous different issues. These include man’s relationship with nature and conquest of it, our vulnerable position midway between the fertility and destruction that give rise to natural resources, spirituality and ancestral rites associated with the elements, the relationship between water and the female, and pure enjoyment of its contemplation. The present tour of the Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection spans the 14th to the 20th centuries through a selection of “images of water” that will introduce us to a wide range of expressive landscapes. We will be seeing lakes, with their reflections that so fascinated painters, springs and rivers associated with biblical and mythological stories, unknown seas or ones whose raging waters have tested the courage of seafarers to the limit, majestic winter landscapes, ports and scenes of leisure activities. These are just a few of the themes that the painters in question have bequeathed to us, inviting us to reflect on and look at water in the context of our daily surroundings in a new way. ROOM 1 our survey begins in the medieval period with the aim of appreciating the LORENZO VENEZIANO sacred significance that water had within Active between 1356 and 1372 Christian religious symbolism. Portable Triptych of the Crucifixion: All the great civilisations of the ancient The Crucifixion (central panel), world grew up around river basins.

No. _Zv_^ _ii ALL RIGHTS RESERVED INTRODUCTION Our grandfathers regarded the study of mythology as a necessary adjunct to a polite education, without a knowledge of which neither the classical nor the more modem poets could be read with understanding. But it is now recognised that upon mythology and folklore rests the basis of the new science of Comparative Religion. The evolution of religion from mythology has now been made plain. It is a law of evolution that, though the parent types which precede certain forms are doomed to perish, they yet bequeath to their descendants certain of their characteristics ; and although mythology has perished (in the civilised world, at least), it has left an indelible stamp not only upon modem religions, but also upon local and national custom. The work of Fruger, Lang, Immerwahr, and others has revolutionised mythology, and has evolved from the unexplained mass of tales of forty years ago a definite and systematic science.

  • The Classical Mythology of Milton's English Poems
    YALE STUDIES IN ENGLISH ALBERT S. COOK, Editor VIII THE CLASSICAL MYTHOLOGY OF Milton's English poems CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. NEW YORK HENRY HOLT AND COMPANY igoo Ss9a Copyright, igoo, BY CHARLES GROSVENOR OSGOOD, Ph.D. J^ 7/SS TO PROFESSQR ALBERT S. COOK AND PROFESSOR THOMAS D. SEYMOUR — PREFACE The student who diligently peruses the lines of a great poem may go far toward a realization of its char- acter. He may appreciate, in a degree, its loveliness, strength, and direct hold upon the catholic truth of life. But he will be more sensitive to these appeals, and receive gifts that are richer and less perishable, accord- ing as he comprehends the forces by whose interaction the poem was produced. These are of two kinds the innate forces of the poet's character, and certain more external forces, such as, in the case of Milton, are represented by Hellenism and Hebraism. Their activ- ity is greatest where they meet and touch, and at this point their nature and measure are most easily dis- cerned. From a contemplation of the poem in its gene- sis one returns to a deeper understanding and enjoyment of it as a completed whole. The present study, though it deals with but one of the important cultural influ- ences affecting Milton, and with it but in part, endeav- ors by this method to deepen and clarify the apprecia- tion of his art and teaching. My interest in the present work has found support and encouragement in the opinions of Mr. Churton Collins, as expressed in his valuable book.

  • El Polifemo De Góngora: Una Poética De La Seducción
    CRITICÓN, 111-112, 2011, pp. 261-271. El Polifemo de Góngora: una poética de la seducción Artículo-reseña Aude Plagnard École Normale Supérieure d’Ulm Jesús PONCE CÁRDENAS. El tapiz narrativo del Polifemo: eros y elipsis. Barcelona, Universitat Pompeu Fabra, 2010. 173 p. (D. L. B-5.460-3010; Papers d’Història de la Creació Literària.) Desde hace una década, Jesús Ponce Cárdenas ha dedicado gran parte de su labor de investigación a varios aspectos de la escritura poética de Luis de Góngora1. Últimamente, ha centrado su atención en el Polifemo. Además de los Cinco Ensayos polifémicos2 y de la edición de la Fábula de Polifemo y Galatea, acaba de publicar un ensayo, el Tapiz narrativo del Polifemo: eros y elipsis, sobre el que quisiéramos atraer la atención de los lectores. En este último ensayo, completa su lectura original de la Fábula de Polifemo y Galatea, enfocando el componente erótico del poema y desmenuzando los procedimientos poéticos en los que se basa. Va demostrando cómo la fuerza del poema para la representación erótica (el eros) nace de la sutil combinación entre revelación y silencio (la elipsis). 1 Dedicó sus años de tesis a los poetas discípulos de Góngora, en particular a Anastasio Pantaleón de Ribera y a Miguel Colodrero de Villalobos. Luego, orientó sus estudios hacia la obra de su maestro. Además de una síntesis de conjunto sobre la poesía de Góngora (Ponce Cárdenas, 2001), ha dedicado un libro a la canción« ¡Qué de invidiosos montes!» (Ponce Cárdenas, 2007). Sobre este mismo poema, puede consultarse el artículo-reseña que le dedicó la profesora Mercedes Blanco (Blanco, 2007).

  • Ripples of Emotion Ray Douglas
    Ripples of Emotion Ray Douglas The Mirror of Diana Steep-sided lakes are often described by the local inhabitants as 'bottomless' – that is, they seem unfathomable, and there are often stories attached to them, some apocryphal, some historic. In Italy the Alban Hills close to Rome, thrown up by primeval volcanic upheavals, contain spectacular craters some of which have become filled with water over the centuries. One of these flooded craters is Lake Nemus or Nemi – the name means 'Forest Grove' – a three-mile stretch of water that in ancient times was called the 'Mirror of Diana'. A goddess not only of nature, but probably the most universally popular of all ancient deities, Diana, or her many equivalents by name and nationality, was called upon by all who felt threatened or oppressed; and her chief shrine was here amongst the trees, hard against the rocky hillside overlooking the lake. Diana was the supernatural champion of the emotions. One of her many guises was the moon – and for many people in many lands a sight of the full moon majestic over the darkness of nature still brings her name to mind. At Lake Nemi her beauty on moonlit nights was to be seen reflected there in the dark water, her expression seeming to change with the moving clouds: a magical mirror framed by the steeply wooded slopes on all sides. Looking out across the water from her shrine, the supernatural Diana would have seemed almost tangibly real to any emotionally receptive person. In their imagination, visitors at night could well people the lake with naiads, the surrounding woods with nymphs.
