italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear all,
it's my pleasure to announce the recent publication of my book "Lettere in
cornice. Traduzioni artistico-letterarie di Dante Gabriel Rossetti"
(Catania-Roma: Bonanno, 2010):
http://www.bonannoeditore.com/it/scheda_libro.php?id=1114.
Find below a synopsis of the book in English.
Best Wishes,
Federica
*************************************************************************
The particular case of the double work of art in the production of the
Pre-Raphaelite poet-painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti is the specific object
of "Lettere in cornice". The book brings to the fore some of the most
striking aspects of Rossetti’s dual art. Here, the sonnet and the painting
– the two most important artistic media used by Rossetti – show themselves
as inseparable and physically interconnected. An extensive part is
dedicated to the descriptions of Rossetti’s paintings both through his
sonnets and his letters, while other chapters focus on the materiality of
Rossetti’s works: the frame, the canvas and the book as an object.
Lettere in cornice contributes to the study of the relationship between
text and image in the Victorian age.
