This catalogue of a Russian Museum exhibition raises questions that pertain both to the work of Briullov and to the history of nineteenth-century Russian and Western European art. After training at the Academy of Fine Arts in St. Petersburg, where historical painting and portraiture were primary, Briullov traveled to Italy in the 1820s and came into contact with different artistic priorities: painting from life and an emphasis on rendering everyday reality accurately. The result was a body of work, much of it unknown until recently, so different from what art historians had associated with Briullov's style, that his authorship was doubted. These sketches and drawings, now in a Moscow private collection, are here juxtaposed with well-known works, which reveals much about Briullov's technique and what he learned in Italy. -- Summary written by John W. Emerich, Bronze Horseman Literary Agency.

Beyond the Revolution in Russia: Narratives – Concepts – Spaces

The book sheds light on the preconditions and consequences extending far beyond the event that opened up totally new horizons in 1917. To mark the centennial of the Russian Revolution, an international team of both junior and experienced scholars from Austria, Belarus, Brazil, the Czech Republic, France, Israel, Poland, Russia and Slovakia brought together contributions from the surprisingly broad interdisciplinary field of comparative, economic, conceptual, and political history, human geography and urbanism, literature, media studies, and political science. The book explains the Russian revolution in a complex ambiguity between the event and its immediate consequences, medium-term social and economic transformations, and the long-term reconfiguration of the spaces of politics and culture.

ECMS 2015 - Periodico di Mineralogia Special Issue

Rome is proud to host the eighth edition of the European Conference on Mineralogy and Spectroscopy (ECMS 2015). This is a welcome back, after the starting point of this conference cycle in Rome (1988) and following editions held in Berlin (1995), Kiev (1996), Paris (2001), Vienna (2004), Stockholm (2007) and Potsdam (2011). The Rome 2015 conference will hopefully reflect the philosophy of previous conferences and provide a common forum to present new ideas, concepts and results related to mineral spectroscopy. It will also offer an opportunity for students and young scientists to meet and interact with established, well-known scientists. The conference deals with mineralogy, spectroscopy and...

Nonverbal Communication

Nonverbal Communication

Body language is a form of communication that can support what we’re saying verbally, or it can act as a ‘tell’ for when we mean quite the opposite of what’s being said. Without using words at all, it can be used to tell a person we’re open to conversation, or it can tell a person to leave us alone. The art of body language is stimulatingly dissected here, so that readers can understand how subtle, moderate, and grand physical posturing, movement, and gestures communicate ideas for us. Among the topics covered are types of body movement, conscious and subconscious gestures, universal expressions, and tips for being an effective speaker and listener. Some myths and facts about body language and ten great questions to ask a teacher about nonverbal communication are included in the text.

Daniil Kharms

The "texts" of Russian artist and thinker Daniil Kharms (1905-1942) were so many and varied and often unique (narrative, dramatic, philosophical, poetic, mathematical, pictographic, diagrammatic, musical, biographical) that they defied categorization—and, thus, thorough study or appreciation—through much of the twentieth century. This book, the first in English to view Kharms’s oeuvre in its entirety, is also the first to offer a complete, inclusive, and coherent understanding of the overall project of this artist and writer now considered a major figure in the modernist canon of Europe.
