Book Description
In a world where fantasy and magic intertwine, where destiny dances with the whims of fate, a tale of enchantment unfolds amidst the depths of an ancient forest. Within this magical realm, a prince yearning for adventure and a humble commoner longing for a better life find themselves inexplicably drawn to a mysterious event, an event that will forever alter the course of their lives. "The Enchanted Masquerade" invites you to step into a world of wonder and mystique, where hidden within the shadows of towering trees, a secret masquerade ball materializes under the moon's benevolent gaze. As whispers of its existence spread through the land, two individuals, Prince Rylan and Elara, find themselves captivated by its allure. Both bear dreams and aspirations that extend beyond the boundaries of their current existence, and unbeknownst to each other, they receive cryptic invitations, pulling them towards the heart of the mystical forest. Guided by fate and masked in anonymity, the prince and the commoner enter the ethereal ball, unaware that they stand but mere footsteps away from each other. As they glide across the dance floor, their hearts flutter with an unexplainable connection, a cosmic force that draws them inexorably together. Beneath the enchanting melodies and sparkling lights, they share a night of wonder, entwined in a magical dance that leaves an indelible mark on their souls. As the night comes to a close, Rylan and Elara part ways, their identities shrouded in secrecy, and return to their separate lives. Yet, destiny's threads are woven tightly, and the lingering sensation of the masquerade's enchantment lingers within their hearts, persistently tugging at their souls. Now begins a journey of discovery, as both protagonists embark on individual quests to uncover the identity of their mysterious dance partner. With every step, they draw closer, led by fate's guiding hand and a mystical guardian within the forest's depths. But not all paths are strewn with petals of roses, for a nefarious presence lurks in the shadows, seeking to exploit the masquerade's magic for malicious purposes. As Rylan and Elara draw nearer to each other, they also find themselves entangled in a dangerous web of deception and intrigue. Will true love conquer all? Can the power of the magical forest overcome the darkness that threatens to engulf them? And as destiny dances its final steps, will the prince and the commoner find their way back to each other's arms, united by a love that transcends time and reality? Join us on a journey through a world of wonder, where the boundaries of fate and free will blur, and where love and magic intertwine in "The Enchanted Masquerade." As the stars illuminate the night sky, and the ancient forest comes alive with secrets and enchantment, brace yourself for an unforgettable tale of romance, adventure, and destiny.

Enchantment
Author: C. Stephen Jaeger
Publisher: University of Pennsylvania Press
ISBN: 0812206525
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 436
Book Description
What is the force in art, C. Stephen Jaeger asks, that can enter our consciousness, inspire admiration or imitation, and carry a reader or viewer from the world as it is to a world more sublime? We have long recognized the power of individuals to lead or enchant by the force of personal charisma—and indeed, in his award-winning Envy of Angels, Jaeger himself brilliantly parsed the ability of charismatic teachers to shape the world of medieval learning. In Enchantment, he turns his attention to a sweeping and multifaceted exploration of the charisma not of individuals but of art. For Jaeger, the charisma of the visual arts, literature, and film functions by creating an exalted semblance of life, a realm of beauty, sublime emotions, heroic motives and deeds, godlike bodies and actions, and superhuman abilities, so as to dazzle the humbled spectator and lift him or her up into the place so represented. Charismatic art makes us want to live in the higher world that it depicts, to behave like its heroes and heroines, and to think and act according to their values. It temporarily weakens individual will and rational critical thought. It brings us into a state of enchantment. Ranging widely across periods and genres, Enchantment investigates the charismatic effect of an ancient statue of Apollo on the poet Rilke, of the painter Dürer's self-portrayal as a figure of Christ-like magnificence, of a numinous Odysseus washed ashore on Phaeacia, and of the black-and-white projection of Fred Astaire dancing across the Depression-era movie screen. From the tattoos on the face of a Maori tribesman to the haunting visage of Charlotte Rampling in a film by Woody Allen, Jaeger's extraordinary book explores the dichotomies of reality and illusion, life and art that are fundamental to both cultic and aesthetic experience.

Enchanted Islands
Author: Mary D. Sheriff
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022648324X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
In Enchanted Islands, renowned art historian Mary D. Sheriff explores the legendary, fictional, and real islands that filled the French imagination during the ancien regime as they appeared in royal ballets and festivals, epic literature, paintings, engravings, book illustrations, and other objects. Some of the islands were mythical and found in the most popular literary texts of the day—islands featured prominently, for instance, in Ariosto’s Orlando furioso,Tasso’s Gerusalemme liberata, and Fénelon’s, Telemachus. Other islands—real ones, such as Tahiti and St. Domingue—the French learned about from the writings of travelers and colonists. All of them were imagined to be the home of enchantresses who used magic to conquer heroes by promising sensual and sexual pleasure. As Sheriff shows, the theme of the enchanted island was put to many uses. Kings deployed enchanted-island mythology to strengthen monarchical authority, as Louis XIV did in his famous Versailles festival Les Plaisirs de l’île enchantée. Writers such as Fénelon used it to tell morality tales that taught virtue, duty, and the need for male strength to triumph over female weakness and seduction. Yet at the same time, artists like Boucher painted enchanted islands to portray art’s purpose as the giving of pleasure. In all these ways and more, Sheriff demonstrates for the first time the centrality of enchanted islands to ancient regime culture in a book that will enchant all readers interested in the art, literature, and history of the time.
