Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Stanislaw Wyspianski is widely regarded as Poland's greatest artist and as the founder of modern Polish drama.Stanislaw Wyspianski (1869-1907), is widely regarded as Poland's greatest artist whose work is just beginning to be appreciated outside of Central Europe. Best known as the founder of modern Polish drama, he was also an artist and applied arts designer. During his short career he made a number of striking portraits in pastel of his family and and contemporary Cracovians which collectively provide a fascinating insight into the cultural life of a nation under partition and striving for independence. This illustrated publication showcases 70 of Wyspianski's portraits. Full of colour and vitality, his works draw on indigenous folk traditions, but are executed in a progressive expressive style influenced by the years Wyspianski spent in Paris, and epitomise the ideals and aspirations of the Young Poland movement with which he is closely associated.

paperback. Condition: Very Good. Most of our very good books have only minor imperfections such as shelf wear consistent with a new book that's sat on a bookshop shelf for a year or two. Occasionally we may miss other minor imperfections as we have to grade books at speed. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Paperback. Condition: New. This book highlights the stories of women from premodern history and literature through models of adaptations, retellings, and criticism such as poems, plays, and essays. Reviving these voices from the background widens the appeal and accessibility of scholarship in the humanities.Creative composing processes draw research through the imagination and experience of the writer. This act can help explore qualities of historical events and literary figures that are still relevant today. The four authors of this book demonstrate these approaches through creative adaptations and responses to Biblical and Classical writings, Greek mythological figures, medieval narratives, powerful historical women, plays by Shakespeare, and works by other early modern English writers. What distinguishes this book from other scholarship on the premodern is its collaborative and interdisciplinary foundation, as well as its emphasis on literary and hybrid genres.Offering interdisciplinary ways of reading, thinking about, and reconceiving literature and scholarship in a way that invites dialogue and further creative responses, this volume provides humanities teachers with effective pedagogical tools to inspire deeper engagement and understanding in their students.

Hardback. Condition: New. Young Poland: The Polish Arts and Crafts Movement, 1890-1918 is the first book in any language to explore the Young Poland (Mloda Polska) period in the context of the international Arts and Crafts movements.The Young Poland movement emerged in the 1890s in response to the country's non-existence for almost a century. It embraced an unprecedented flourishing of applied arts and the revival of crafts, drawing inspiration from nature, history, peasant traditions and craftsmanship to convey patriotic values.The book argues that Young Poland shared fundamental parallels with the British Arts and Crafts Movement, and that it was specifically this Arts and Crafts ethos that fuelled the movement's patriotic ideology and the nation's quest to regain Polish independence.The lavishly illustrated publication charts the rich history of the artists, designers and craftspeople whose schemes came to define Young Poland, including over 250 illustrations of ceramics, furniture, textiles, paper cuttings, wood carvings, tableware, stained glass, book arts, children's toys and Christmas decorations, as well as domestic, church and civic interior decoration schemes.The book is the culmination of an international research project co-financed by the Polish Ministry of Culture and National Heritage as part of the 'Inspiring Culture' Programme. It is a collaboration between Lund Humphries, the William Morris Gallery, the National Museum in Kraków and the Polish Cultural Institute, London.
