Il catalogo, edito in occasione dell’omonima mostra (Venezia, Palazzo Loredan, 28 gennaio 2023–27 aprile 2023), si compone di quasi cento "teste caricate”, teste grottesche e caricature, dalla fine del XV al XX secolo attraverso disegni originali, incisioni, acqueforti, acquerelli e libri a stampa provenienti da importanti musei internazionali. Il volume propone una raffinata scelta di opere all’interno dell’arte della caricatura italiana tra Milano, Bologna e Venezia che testimoniano la presenza di una tradizione "settentrionale” continuamente ravvivata nel corso dei secoli. Un excursus che parte da Leonardo, con un nucleo eccezionale di disegni autografi, e rintraccia nei suoi epigoni – da Giovanni Agostino da Lodi a Giuseppe Arcimboldo – l’eredità delle rappresentazioni di volti deformati, esagerazioni anatomiche, indagini fisiognomiche, figure caricaturali e gallerie di caratteri umani, intrecciandola con il naturalismo di Annibale e Agostino Carracci, fino alla trionfale ripresa del genere presso i pittori veneti della prima metà del Settecento: Marco Ricci, Giovan Battista Tiepolo, Anton Maria Zanetti e Carlo Lasinio. L’elemento di continuità è dato dalla presenza nella Biblioteca di Anton Maria Zanetti, e dunque nella Venezia della prima metà del Settecento, dei testi fondamentali di Lomazzo (Trattato dell’arte della pittura, 1584; Idea del tempio della pittura, 1590) e di Leonardo da Vinci (Trattato della Pittura, 1651), nonché delle incisioni del Mariette tratte dall’album di caricature di Leonardo posseduto dal conte di Caylus (Parigi, 1730). Le relazioni di Zanetti con i collezionisti parigini di disegni di Leonardo confermano il revival leonardesco nella Venezia della prima metà del Settecento. Come precisa Marani, «benché quelle di Leonardo, salvo rarissimi casi, non possano definirsi propriamente "caricature”, alcune scoperte recenti hanno mostrato come sia possibile rintracciarne l’eco a Venezia e, almeno in parte, spiegare il riapparire dell’interesse per questo "genere” nella Venezia di Anton Maria Zanetti, Rosalba Carriera e Tiepolo, certo venuto a maturazione anche a seguito dello studio da parte degli artisti veneziani dell’opera dei bolognesi». Oltre al saggio di apertura del curatore sulla relazione tra Leonardo e la ripresa del genere nel Settecento, il catalogo include un intervento di Laura Corti su Annibale Carracci, i contributi di Enrico Lucchese, Paola Cordera e Rosalba Antonelli sulla diffusione di caricature e teste leonardesche nel Settecento veneziano e sull’universum collezionistico del tempo, infine la riflessione di Calvin Winner sull’impegno di Francis Bacon nella metamorfica ritrattistica.

«The Century» es una gran trilogía y la crónica de un siglo turbulento. En ella vivimos la historia íntima y personal de tres generaciones de cinco familias cuyas vidas estuvieron marcadas por dos guerras mundiales, la Revolución rusa, la Guerra Civil española y la Guerra Fría, junto con los profundos cambios sociales que las acompañaron. La caída de los gigantesLa historia empieza en 1911, el día de la coronación del rey Jorge V en la abadía de Westminster. El destino de los Williams, una familia minera de Gales, está unido por el amor y la enemistad al de los Fitzherbert, aristócratas y propietarios de las minas. Lady Maud Fitzherbert se enamorará de Walter von Ulrich, un joven espía en la embajada alemana en Londres. Sus vidas se entrelazarán con la de un asesor progresista del presidente de Estados Unidos, Woodrow Wilson, y la de dos hermanos rusos a los que la guerra y la revolución les ha arrebatado su sueño de buscar fortuna en América. Desde Washington hasta San Petesburgo, desde la inmundicia y los peligros de las minas de carbón hasta los candelabros lujosos de los palacios de la aristocracia, pasando por los pasillos de la Casa Blanca y el parlamento de Westminster, Ken Follet nos ofrece, en su novela más ambiciosa, un esmerado retrato de una época y de las pasiones que espolearon la vida de sus personajes. _________________ El invierno del mundo En el año 1933, Berlín es un foco de agitación política y social. Lady Maud, ahora la esposa de Walter von Ulrich y madre de dos hijos, publica en una revista semanal artículos que ridiculizan al Partido Nazi, mientras que Walter manifiesta su oposición en el Parlamento. Sin embargo, parece que nada podrá frenar el poder ascendente del canciller Adolf Hitler. Cuando Ethel Williams y su hijo Lloyd visitan a la familia von Ulrich, todos serán testigos de la tiranía y la represión de la nueva Alemania. El dominio del Tercer Reich se extenderá hasta Francia y más allá de la frontera rusa. Mientras, en Inglaterra, Lloyd Williams, activista político como su madre, luchará en el ejército británico para intentar frenar el avance de los nazis y se alistará en las brigadas internacionales durante la guerra civil española. Participará en la ofensiva de Zaragoza y la batalla de Belchite. En Ty Gwyn, la mansión familia de los Fitzherbert en Gales, se alojarán los oficiales británicos y, durante su estancia, el teniente Lloyd Williams se sentirá atraído por la mujer de Boy Fitzherbert, la rica heredera americana Daisy Peshkov. _________________ El umbral de la eternidad En el año 1961 Rebecca Hoffmann, profesora en Alemania del Este y nieta de Lady Maud, descubrirá que la policía secreta está vigilándola. Mientras, su hermano menor, Walli, sueña con huir a Occidente para convertirse en músico de rock. Por otro lado, Georges Jakes, un joven abogado que trabaja con los hermanos Kennedy, es un activista del movimiento por los derechos civiles de los negros en Estados Unidos que participará en las protestas de los estados del Sur y en la marcha sobre Washigton liderada por Martin Luther King. En Rusia las inclinaciones políticas enfrentan a los hermanos Tania y Dimka Dvorkin. Este se convierte en una de las jóvenes promesas del Kremlin mientras su hermana entrará a formar parte de un grupo activista que promueve la insurrección. A través de escenas impactantes y protagonistas fascinantes, Ken Follett nos presenta un mundo que pensábamos conocer pero que nunca más nos parecerá lo mismo. _________________ «La trilogía "The Century" es la historia de mis abuelos y de los vuestros, de nuestros padres y de nuestras vidas. De alguna forma es la historia de todos nosotros.»Ken Follet La crítica ha dicho...«Fascinante... fluye con un dramatismo que te engancha y de un ritmo magistral, hazañas de personajes, histrionismo familiar e intriga internacional.»The New York Daily News «La saga atrapa y la intensidad de los personajes te sumerge en el relato. Un trabajo de plena coherencia, cohesión y pulcritud.»Ramón Ventura, El Periódico de Catalunya «Un melodrama épico y generacional en el que se pone de manifiesto lo mejor y lo peor del ser humano.»La Razón «Alta política y bajas pasiones (y viceversa) conforman un folletín de grandes dimensiones que confirma a Follett como relojero mayor del reino del best seller.»Qué Leer «Ken Follett no es un escritor, sino un fenómeno social.»El Cultural de El Mundo

Franceso Petrarch (1304-1374), creator of the sonnet form, remained for more than three hundred years the most influential poet in Europe, his works more widely read than even those of Dante. This collection contains English language versions of his poems from across six centuries, in a wide variety of translations and reinterpretations. Spanning the "Trionfi" series and the "Canzoniere" - Petrarch's empassioned sonnet-sequence concerning his beloved Laura - it also includes great English poems influenced by Petrarch. From Chaucer's early adaptation of a Petrarchan sonnet in "Troilus" and "Criseyde" to the sixteenth century translations by the Earl of Surrey, Byron's mocking consideration of the Canzoniere in "Don Juan" and Ezra Pound's parody "Silet", all provide a unique insight into the significance of the founder of the European lyric tradition.
