Free Download Camille Paglia, "Sexual Personae: Art and Decadence from Nefertiti to Emily Dickinson"
English | ISBN: 0679735798 | | 718 pages | PDF | 109 MB
The fiery, provocative, and unparalleled work of feminist art criticism that launched the exceptional career of one of our most important public intellectuals-"a remarkable book, at once outrageous and compelling, fanatical and brilliant.... One must be awed by [Paglia's] vast energy, erudition and wit" (The Washington Post).
Is Emily Dickinson "the female Sade"? Is Donatello's David a bit of pedophile pornography? What is the secret kinship between Byron and Elvis Presley, between Medusa and Madonna? How do liberals and feminists-as well as conservatives-fatally misread human nature? This audacious and omnivorously learned work of guerrilla scholarship offers nothing less than a unified-field theory of Western culture, high and low, since Egyptians invented beauty-making a persuasive case for all art as a pagan battleground between male and female, form and chaos, civilization and daemonic nature.
With 47 photographs.
