Paperback. Condition: New. NA2479, PC338, 1055 gr. 9782753522275 Les arts de la nation Construction nationale & arts visuels en Lettonie Traitant de la construction identitaire nationale, l'auteur a choisi d'illustrer son propos par le cas d'un pays sans histoire étatique ancienne, la Lettonie. Cet ouvrage se focalise sur le rôl…e des arts visuels qui ont contribué à transformer ce qui n'était au départ qu'une idée nationale culturelle, prônée par une intelligentsia restreinte, en une revendication populaire d'indépendance. Dans les provinces de la future Lettonie, entre les deux grandes puissances qui les dominaient à la fin du XIXe siècle - la Russie et l'Allemagne - les « éveilleurs » lettons ne pouvaient avoir recours à un passé historique ou à une unité territoriale inexistants pour revendiquer leur autonomie, puis leur indépendance. Ils se tournèrent alors vers la culture, la langue et le folklore pour construire leur identité nationale. Ils cherchèrent notamment à s'inspirer d'un âge d'or dont témoignent leurs chants populaires, les dainas, pour se relier à un temps mythologique d'avant la conquête germanique du XIIIe siècle. Ainsi a pu s'affirmer une continuité entre une période archaïque et leur époque, esquivant les siècles passés sous dominance étrangère. Dans cette construction, les artistes ont utilisé cet héritage ancestral - en peinture, en sculpture, en architecture et dans les arts appliqués - jouant de ce fait un rôle éminent. Ce faisant, ils ont donné à voir la nation devenue État, tant dans l'espace public que privé, Riga devenant la vitrine privilégiée de ce processus. Le propos de cet ouvrage est de montrer, sur la toile de fond de l'histoire, comment les artistes se trouvèrent investis de la mission d'élaborer un art letton, dégagé des influences russe et allemande jusque-là dominantes. Comment s'établirent les liens entre le culturel et le politique et comment le politique intervint dans la vie artistique. Enfin comment l'art letton enraciné dans la tradition parvint à s'adapter aux courants européens de la période de l'entre-deux-guerres, dépassant la tension entre ancrage national et modernité internationale. Cet ouvrage constitue également un apport à la réflexion sur les usages sociaux et politiques de l'art.

Hardback. Condition: New. Illustrated. Focusing on the role of arts in the construction of national identity, Suzanne Pourchier-Plasseraud has chosen to study the case of a country lacking an ancient state history of its own, Latvia. This book analyses the part played by the visual arts in transmuting the cultural concept of a n…ation, advocated by a small intelligentsia, into a widespread claim for independence. By the end of the 19th century, fretting under Russian political domination and German economic and cultural supremacy, the Latvians turned back to their own language, culture and folklore, with a special interest for their dainas, their timeless common heritage rooted into a mythical golden age. Latvian artists thus found themselves entrusted with the mission of creating a national iconographic representation and a specifically Latvian art, freed from Russian and German influences. The author shows how the links between the cultural and political spheres evolved between 1905 and 1940, including during the period of authoritarian government preceding WWII. An enlightening contribution to understanding how art and history can be turned into social and political instruments, this book reaches far beyond the Latvian case to a European and even global scope.
