Maria Sabina: Selections

2003 y.
Publisher: University of California Press
Description: A shaman and visionary--not a poet in any ordinary sense--Maria Sabina lived out her life in the Oaxacan mountain village of Huautla de Jimenez, and yet her words, always sung or spoken, have carried far and wide, a principal instance anda powerful reminder of how poetry can arise in a context far removed from literature as such. Seeking cures through language--with the help of Psilocybe mushrooms, said to be the source of language itself--she was, as Henry Munn describes her, `a genius [who] emerges from the soil of the communal, religious-therapeutic folk poetry of a native Mexican campesino people.` She may also have been, in the words of the Mexican poet Homero Aridjis, `the greatest visionary poet in twentieth-century Latin America.` These selections include a generous presentation from Sabina`s recorded chants and a complete English translation of her oral autobiography, her vida, as written and arranged in her native language by her fellow Mazatec Alvaro Estrada….

Maria Sibylla Merian and Daughters: Women of Art and Science

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: This gorgeously illustrated book presents the life and work of Maria Sibylla Merian, who defied the conventions of her time to pursue her passion for documenting the natural world in all its glorious, and sometimes ferocious, detail. After more than fifteen years of marriage to a fellow artist and the birth of two daughters, Merian left her husband. She began to support herself by selling watercolors of insects, fruit, and flowers, eventually establishing an art business in Amsterdam with her daughters, Johanna Helen and Dorothea Maria. Merian`s innovative compositional style--displaying the life cycle of an insect against the background of its host plant--developed out of her own careful and painstakingly recorded observations of insect metamorphoses. Ella Rietsma is the first author to attempt to separate Merian`s work from that of her two daughters, who collaborated extensively with their mother. Writing in a lively, accessible style, Reitsma includes newly discovered… [detailed...]

Marianne Heske: A Doll`s House

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: More than 30 years ago the Norwegian artist Marianne Heske found a large box of papier-mache doll heads at a Paris flea market, she was intrigued by the glamour of early-twentieth-century film stars she saw in the doll`s faces, and soon knew they would figure in her works. These works were exhibited when Heske was invited to participate in the international celebration of the centenary of Ibsen`s birth, Ibsen Year 2006. The celebration in Oslo, Norway, includes roles for Heske`s dolls in her installation dedicated to Ibsen`s A Doll`s House, and also includes Heske`s early video work and several early lithographs, works that are fundamental to her productions with the dolls. Heske`s A Doll`s House installation is a collaborative project with the National Musuem of Art, Architecture and Design, Oslo, and will subsequently be shown in Rome and New York City. [detailed...]

Marianne in the Market: Envisioning Consumer Society in Fin-de-Siecle

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: In the late nineteenth century, controversy over the social ramifications of the emerging consumer marketplace beset the industrialized nations of the West. In France, various commentators expressed concern that rampant commercialization threatened the republican ideal of civic-mindedness as well as the French reputation for good taste. The female bourgeois consumer was a particularly charged figure because she represented consumption run amok. Critics feared that the marketplace compromised her morality and aesthetic discernment, with dire repercussions for domestic life and public order. Marianne in the Market traces debates about the woman consumer to examine the complex encounter between the market and the republic in nineteenth-century France. It explores how agents of capitalism -- advertisers, department store managers, fashion journalists, self-styled taste experts -- addressed fears of consumerism through the forging of an aesthetics of the marketplace: a `marketplace… [detailed...]

Marie Antoinette: Writings on the Body of a Queen

2003 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionMarie-Antoinette is one of the most fascinating and controversial figures in all of French history. Married to the heir to the French throne at age fourteen, Marie-Antoinette was at the center of public attention during the final tumultuous years of the Old Regime and the French Revolution. For a variety of reasons explored in this volume - all of which revolved around her gender - Marie-Antoinette came to represent the monarchy as it came under increasing attack. As both a woman and queen, she became a privileged site of the political contestation and criticism that characterized the end of the eighteenth century in France. Rather than retell the story of her life, the contributors to this volume reveal how crucial political and cultural contests were enacted `on the body of the queen` and on the complex identity of Marie-Antoinette. They explore the difficulties of Marie-Antoinette`s position as a woman, a foreigner, and a queen in the final decades of the… [detailed...]

Marie-Therese: The Fate of Marie Antoinette`s Daughter

2009 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In December 1795, seventeen-year-old Marie-Therese, the only surviving child of Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI, fled Paris`s notorious Temple Prison. Kept in solitary confinement after her parents` brutal execution during the Terror, she had been unaware of the fate of her family, save the cries she heard of her young brother being tortured in an adjacent cell. She emerged to an uncertain future: an orphan, exile and focus of political plots and marriage schemes of the crowned heads of Europe. Susan Nagel tells a remarkable story of an astonishing woman whose life was shrouded in mystery, from her birth in front of rowdy crowds at Versailles, to her upbringing by doting parents, through to Revolution, imprisonment, exile, Restoration and, finally, her reincarnation as Saint and Matriarch.
