Phase impériale (2e partie)

The Wicked + The Divine - Tome 06

Thoroughly user-friendly and covering a broad historical sweep, this book is a reference guide to fifty of the most frequently occurring symbols in global art history.

Symbols in Art

Why do we reach for the red rose on Valentines day? Where did the owl gain its reputation for wisdom? Why should you never trust a fox? In this visual tour through art history, Matthew Wilson pieces together a global visual language enshrined in art: the language of symbols. Symbols exert a strong hold in the image-saturated 21st century, and have done so for thousands of years. From national emblems to corporate logos and emojis, our day-to-day lives abound with icons with roots in the distant past. Expert art historian Matthew Wilson traces the often surprising trajectories that symbols have taken through history, from their original purposes to their modern meanings, identifying the common themes and ideas that link seemingly disparate cultures. Thus we meet the falcon as a symbol of authority from the ancient Egyptian pharaohs to the medieval aristocracy; the dog as stalwart companion from the classical era to the Renaissance; and the mythical phoenix as a symbol of female power connecting a queen in England with a goddess in China. We also see moments of radical reinterpretation and change: the transformation of the swastika from an auspicious symbol of hope to one of hate. From Palaeolithic cave paintings to contemporary installations, Wilson deftly guides us through this world of symbols, showcasing their enduring ability to express power, hope, fear and faith, and to create and communicate identities, uniting or dividing the people that made them.

The Hidden Language of Symbols

We now come to the many reasons we are here on this material plane of existence. What is the purpose behind this state of affairs? Why are we here? Some schools of thought suggest we are here, bringing into this life experiences from previous ones to add to our memories and lifestyle, making a better realization. These thoughts from the past enter into the subconscious mind, laying dormant till activated by some trigger mechanism, bringing a source of knowledge and wisdom. But this in reality doesnt give us the whole meaning to lifes meaning and its persistent enquiries to the purpose being on this earth plane. Some more thoughts on abstract phenomena.

Presagio Faust. The wicked + the devine

Charles W. Chesnutt (1858-1932), critically acclaimed for his novels, short stories, and essays, was one of the most ambitious and influential African American writers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Today recognized as a major innovator of American fiction, Chesnutt is an important contributor to de-romanticizing trends in post-Civil War Southern literature, and a singular voice among turn-of-the-century realists who wrote about race in American life. Whiteness in the Novels of Charles W. Chesnutt is the first study to focus exclusively on Chesnutt's novels. Examining the three published in Chesnutt's lifetime-The House Behind the Cedars, The Marrow of Tradition, and The Colonel's Dream-as well as his posthumously published novels, this study explores the dilemma of a black writer who wrote primarily for a white audience. Throughout, Matthew Wilson analyzes the ways in which Chesnutt crafted narratives for his white readership and focuses on how he attempted to infiltrate and manipulate the feelings and convictions of that audience. Wilson pays close attention to the genres in which Chesnutt was working and also to the social and historical context of the novels. In articulating the development of Chesnutt's career, Wilson shows how Chesnutt's views on race evolved. By the end of his career, he felt that racial differences were not genetically inherent, but social constructions based on our background and upbringing. Finally, the book closely examines Chesnutt's unpublished manuscripts that did not deal with race. Even in these works, in which African Americans are only minor characters, Wilson finds Chesnutt engaged with the conundrum of race and reveals him as one of America's most significant writers on the subject. Matthew Wilson is a professor of humanities and writing at Penn State University, Harrisburg. He is the editor of Charles W. Chesnutt's Paul Marchand, F.M.C. (University Press of Mississippi).

Mirrors are fascinating. They reflect everything accurately the things that are in front of them, or do they? Scientists were at one time attempting to create a mirror which showed everything the way the viewer would see it, not the back-to-front reflection we are used to. Quite what that would do to our minds is anyone's guess… Mirrors can be menacing. They can reveal our innermost fears – sometimes showing us those fears in ghastly and horrific forms. Mirrors can speak, according to the fairy tale, giving the viewer what she wanted up to a point, until it no longer became the truth. Mirrors hold many secrets. This anthology reveals some of those secrets and horrors as the talented writers who have allowed me to use their work explore in tales of woe, blood, gore and murder. Here are the real nasties hiding behind the silvered backs of seemingly innocuous mirrors. Look in them at your peril.

An Urban Nightmare

La storia di Moon Knight, il Pugno di Khonshu, è diventata uno show televisivo, e Marc Spector ne è il produttore. Ma la sua vita a Los Angeles sta per essere sconvolta da uno scontro con Mr. Hyde, da una testa di Ultron (?!?) e dall’arrivo di Avengers del calibro di Spider-Man, Capitan America e Wolverine. La sfida che lo aspetta è però prima di tutto quella di comprendere cosa stia accadendo nella realtà e cosa, invece, nella sua testa. I dialoghi serrati di Brian Michael Bendis e il tratto sporco di Alex Maleev spalancano le porte della contorta mente del Cavaliere Lunare in un’imperdibile serie completa.

Sci-fi fan or not, aliens hold a fascination for humans. The mystery of UFOs, the thought they may walk among us without us knowing, the thought they may be watching us all the time... these things ensure that we, as a race, are absorbed with thoughts of ‘aliens’, however they might show themselves. In giving Thirteen’s talented writers a theme like that, it was guaranteed that the stories which came in would cover every possible interpretation of the alien theme that you can imagine, and then some. Walk some strange pathways, read some strange stories, discover some strange aliens... Check out more Thirteen Press & Horrified Press titles here: horrifiedpress.wordpress.com
