Abstract

Welche Funktionen vermochte die Mythologie in der Malerei nach der drastischen Aufklärungskritik noch zu erfüllen? Nach dem radikalen Bedeutungsverlust und den rationalistischen Anfechtungen konnte der Mythos nicht mehr einfach als bedeutungsstiftendes Verweissystem für die politische und kulturelle Repräsentation dienen. Der englische Maler und Kunsttheoretiker Joshua Reynolds (1723–92) leistete mit seinen neuartigen Bildverfahren zur Beantwortung dieser Frage einen entscheidenden Beitrag. In seinem Werk zeichnet sich eine Neuinstrumentalisierung des Mythos ab, die nicht seine Moral, sondern sein Assoziationspotential nutzt.

Abstract

"British literature often refers to pagan and classical themes through richly detailed landscapes that suggest more than a mere backdrop of physical features. The author analyzes the evocative language and aesthetics of landscapes in literature, film, television and music, and how "psycho-geography" is used to explore the influence of the past on the present"--

Abstract

Artists in Roman Italy created exquisite landscapes that reflect close ties with their environment, ranging from images of sunny seaside villas and tranquil country shrines to colorful views of Greece and Egypt. This groundbreaking volume explores the intimate connections between these works and ancient Romans' social, political and religious lives. Essays by six distinguished scholars discuss landscapes in a variety of media that decorated urban houses and tombs in Rome, Pompeii and Herculaneum and sumptuous coastal villas on the Bay of Naples. The catalog features more than 65 wall paintings, marble sculptures, mosaics, and costly drinking vessels in silver and cameo glass from 100 BC to AD 200, including rarely seen works from museums and archeological sites in Italy. Richly illustrated, this timely volume reflects shared human concerns about control and development of the land, about the competing demands of wealth and piety, and about preserving natural resources.Exhibition: San Antonio Museum of Art, San Antonio, USA (24.02-21.05.2023).
