Benvenuto Cellini - Sexuality, Masculinity, and Artistic Identity in Renaissance Italy (Paperback, 2003 ed.)
Expected to ship within 10 - 15 working days
|
Celebrated goldsmith and sculptor of the Italian Renaissance,
Benvenuto Cellini (1500-71) fits the conventional image of a
Renaissance man: a skillful virtuoso and courtier; an artist who
worked in marble, bronze, and gold; a writer and poet. However, in
his life and literary oeuvre, the notorious artist aligned himself
with the transgressive and oppositional voices of his day. This
book, the first biographical study of Cellini available in English,
uses the methodologies of New Historicism, social history, and
gender and sexuality studies to situate the artist and his works in
relation to a series of early modern cultural discourses and
practices, including sodomy, law, honor, magic, and
masculinity.
