Celan Studies (Paperback): Peter Szondi Celan Studies (Paperback)
Peter Szondi; Translated by Susan Bernofsky, Harvey Mendelsohn; Foreword by Jean Bollack
R509 Discovery Miles 5 090 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

Peter Szondi's "Celan Studies" marked the beginning of critical work on Paul Celan, the most important German poet of the second half of the twentieth century.
The book's three studies each concentrate on a different Celan poem. "The Poetry of Constancy: Paul Celan's Translation of Shakespeare's Sonnet 105" investigates a historical turn from a poetry that claims to present its object to a poetry that only promises to do so. "Reading 'Engfuhrung'" follows the movement of poetic language into territory undisclosed to epistemic reason. "Eden" addresses "Du liegst," a poem on the murder of Rosa Luxemburg and Karl Liebknecht; Szondi actually was with Celan when the poem was written. It analyzes the relation between the historical facts to which a poem refers and its composition.
The book contains, as appendixes, Szondi's notes for three more projected studies of Celan poems, left unwritten at the time of his death in 1971.

The Surviving Image - Phantoms of Time and Time of Phantoms: Aby Warburg's History of Art (Hardcover): Georges... The Surviving Image - Phantoms of Time and Time of Phantoms: Aby Warburg's History of Art (Hardcover)
Georges Didi-Huberman; Translated by Harvey Mendelsohn
R2,150 Discovery Miles 21 500 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The Surviving Image, originally published in French in 2002, is the result of Georges Didi-Huberman’s extensive research into the life and work of foundational art historian Aby Warburg. Warburg envisioned an art history that engaged with anthropology, psychoanalysis, and philosophy in order to understand the “life” of images. Drawing on a wide range of Warburg’s unpublished letters and diaries, Didi-Huberman demonstrates unequivocally the complexity and importance of Warburg’s ideas and the ways in which his legacy was both distorted and diffused as art history became a “humanistic” discipline. The Surviving Image takes Warburg as its main subject but also addresses broader questions regarding art historians’ conceptions of time, memory, and symbols and the relationship between art and the rational and irrational forces of the psyche. Faithfully and thoughtfully translated by Harvey Mendelsohn, this first English-language edition of Didi-Huberman’s masterful study of Warburg is a stirring and significant treatise on the philosophical nature of art history.
