Portrait of Beatrice
Author: Fabio Camilletti
Publisher: University of Notre Dame Pess
ISBN: 026810400X
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
The Portrait of Beatrice examines both Dante's and D. G. Rossetti's intellectual experiences in the light of a common concern about visuality. Both render, in different times and contexts, something that resists clear representation, be it the divine beauty of the angel-women or the depiction of the painter's own interiority in a secularized age. By analyzing Dante's Vita Nova alongside Rossetti's Hand and Soul and St. Agnes of Intercession, which inaugurates the Victorian genre of 'imaginary portrait' tales, this book examines how Dante and Rossetti explore the tension between word and image by creating 'imaginary portraits.' The imaginary portrait—Dante's sketched angel appearing in the Vita Nova or the paintings evoked in Rossetti's narratives—is not (only) a non-existent artwork: it is an artwork whose existence lies elsewhere, in the words alluding to its inexpressible quality. At the same time, thinking of Beatrice as an 'imaginary Lady' enables us to move beyond the debate about her actual existence. Rather, it allows us to focus on her reality as a miracle made into flesh, which language seeks incessantly to grasp. Thus, the intergenerational dialogue between Dante and Rossetti—and between thirteenth and nineteenth centuries, literature and painting, Italy and England—takes place between different media, oscillating between representation and denial, mimesis and difference, concealment and performance. From medieval Florence to Victorian London, Beatrice's 'imaginary portrait' touches upon the intertwinement of desire, poetry, and art-making in Western culture.

Beatrice Hastings
Author: Benjamin G. Johnson
Publisher: Pleiades Press
ISBN: 9780964145481
Category : Authors, English
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Poetry. Edited by Benjamin Johnson and Erika Jo Brown. A principal member of the 'dark' avant-garde--the many artists marginalized even from the margins, often because of their social and political extremes--Beatrice Hastings wielded over a dozen noms de guerre (among them, Beatrice Hastings) and all with searing wit and considerable stylistic precision. And she had opinions--strong ones--on everything from motherhood (no) to war (no) to Futurism (maybe) to outrageous hats (definitely). A woman at the head of her time with a passionate commitment to progressive culture, she lived as vigorously and vehemently as possible. Her tone and turns of phrase take us back to the early years of radical European experimentalism with a truly uncommon vivacity.--Cole Swensen Beatrice Hastings offers readers of this collection extraordinary insights into the possibilities and constraints of modernist writing. With her passion for both playful and furious repartee between her many alter egos and print pseudonyms, she embodies the richness and urgency of early twentieth century print culture. Yet her own voice has been little heard; her self-multiplying strategies have effaced her from modernist culture and history. This terrific collection finally redresses this neglect, and offers fresh perspectives on what it was like to write at the interstices of feminism, modernism, and literature. Hastings's writings range across gender, maternity, eugenics, parody, poetry, and war. She engages with--and satirizes--major aspects of early twentieth century culture and social experience. The accompanying contextual essays set Hastings in dialogue with a stellar early twentieth century cast, including Virginia Woolf, Ezra Pound, the Women's Social and Political Union, and Katherine Mansfield. She emerges as a maverick figure whose brilliance and venom are sensitively explored in this collection.--Lucy Delap
