Vladimir Brljak

4.9/5 (27485 ratings)

Description:Allegory Studies: Contemporary Perspectives brings together some of the most compelling current work in allegory studies, by an international team of scholars from a range of disciplines and specializations in the humanities and cognitive sciences. The volume tracks the subject across established disciplinary, cultural, and period-based divides, from its shadowy origins to its uncertain future, and from the rich variety of its cultural and artistic manifestations to its deep cognitive roots. Allegory is everything we already know it to be: a mode of literary and artistic composition, and a religious as well as secular interpretive practice. It is, however, much more than that--much more than a sum of its parts. Collectively, the phenomena that we now tend to subsume under this term comprise a dynamic cultural force which has left a deep imprint on our history, whose full impact we are only beginning to comprehend, and which therefore demands precisely such dedicated cross-disciplinary examination as this book seeks to provide.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
