Office of The Scarlet Letter

Office of The Scarlet Letter: < p align=justify> & quot < i> The Scarlet Letter< /i> has proved our most enduring classic,& quot writes Sacvan Bercovitch, & quot because it is the liberal example par excellence of art as ideological mimesis. To understand the office of the A is to see how culture empowers symbolic form, including forms of dissent, and how symbols participate in the dynamics of culture, including the dynamics of constraint.& quot < /p> < p align=justify> With an approach that both reflects and contests developments in literary studies, Bercovitch explores these connections from two perspectives: first, he examines a historical reading of the novel& rsquo s unities and then, a rhetorical analysis of key mid-nineteenth-century issues, at home and abroad. In order to highlight the relation between rhetoric and history, he focuses on the point at which the scarlet letter does its office at last, the moment when Hester decides to come home to America.< /p> < p align=justify> In < i> The Office of & quot The Scarlet Letter,& quot < /i> Bercovitch argues that the process by which the United States usurped & quot America& quot for itself, symbolically, is also the process by which liberalism established political and economic dominance. In the course of his study, he offers sustained discussions of Hawthorne& rsquo s irony and ambiguity, of aesthetic and social strategies of cohesion, and of the conundrums of liberal dissent. Winner of the Modern Language Association& rsquo s James Russell Lowe prize, < i> The Office of & quot The Scarlet Letter& quot < /i> provides a theoretical redefinition of the function of symbolism in culture and an exemplary literary-ideological reading of a major text.< /p>

Letter with signature and original watercolour of the

Framed letter with signature of the painter Quinto Cenni, addressed to his Royal Highness the Duke of Aosta - dated January with a horse portrait by Cenni.With certificate of authenticity (COA).Letter size: 20 x 7 cm - Frame size: 32 x 39,5 cm.Very good condition, except for small signs of wear.¶ Quinto Cenni (Imola, 20 March – Carate Brianza, August ) was an Italian painter and Illustrator. He was the greatest painter of military uniforms in Italy in the 19th century. At the time, photography was still in its early stages and required bulky and unmanageable equipment. For this reason an expert and skilled illustrator such as Cenni (who graduated from the Academy of Breda with an award for lithography) had ample opportunity to be employed in the illustrated magazines that were emerging in Italy in imitation of similar foreign magazines. The attempt at the base of Cenni’s was to introduce the Italian Army to the public and especially to make it known in the daily life in the barracks and in the campaigns. Read More
