Add to baskethardcover. Condition: Near Fine. includes dust-jacket. very good dust-jacket with only slightest wear, near fine green cloth, top foredge only very slightly soiled. BRAIDER, CHRISTOPHER. Refiguring the real: picture and modernity in word and image, 1400-1700. Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press, 1993, 1st printing number… line ending in 1, xiv, 314pp., . In a major analysis of pictorial forms from the late Middle Ages to the Enlightenment, Christopher Braider argues that the painted image provides a metaphor and model for all other modes of expression in Western culture-particularly literature, philosophy, religion, and science. Because critics have conventionally explained visual images in terms of verbal texts (Scripture, heroic poetry, and myth), they have undervalued the impact of the pictorial naturalism practiced by painters from the fifteenth century onward and the fundamentally new conception of reality it conveys. By reinterpreting modern Western experience in light of northern "descriptive art," the author enriches our understanding of how both painted and written cultural texts shape our perceptions of the world at large. Throughout Braider draws on works by such painters as van der Weyden, Bruegel the Elder, Steen, Vermeer, Rembrandt, and Poussin, and addresses such topics as the Incarnation of the Word in Christ, the elegiac foundations of Enlightenment aesthetics, and the rivalry between northern and southern art. His goal is not only to reexamine important aesthetic issues but also to offer a new perspective on the general intellectual and cultural history of the modern West. 9780691069579 ISBN 0691069573 27.40.

Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. Ex-Library book has stamp on bottom edge of text block and pocket on rear fep. Blind embossed stamp on half title page. Dust jacket has sticker on spine. Dj is in mylar cover that has been taped to book. The pages are very clean and the binding is tight. No signs of signif…icant wear. First edition (NAP), 2004. 6.25 x 9.5 Inches. 201 Pages. Studies in European Cultural Transition, Volume Twenty Three (23). In his monumental study, Christopher Braider explores the dialectical contest between history and truth that defines the period of cultural transition called the 'baroque'. For example, Annibale Carracci's portrayal of the Stoic legend of Hercules at the Crossroads departs from earlier, more static representations that depict an emblematic demigod who has already rejected the fallen path of worldly Pleasure for the upward road of heroic Virtue. Braider argues that, in breaking with tradition in order to portray a tragic soliloquist whose dominant trait is agonized indecision, Carracci joins other baroque artists, poets and philosophers in rehearsing the historical dilemma of choice itself. Carracci's picture thus becomes a framing device that illuminates phenomena as diverse as the construction of gender in baroque painting and science, the Pauline ontology of art in Caravaggio and Rembrandt, the metaphysics of baroque soliloquy and the dismantling of Cartesian dualism in Cyrano de Bergerac and Pascal.
