商品描述
Showcasing the genius of Russian literature, art, music, and dance over a century of turmoil, within the dynamic cultural ecosystem that shaped it, The Firebird and the Fox explores the shared traditions, mutual influences and enduring themes that recur in these art forms. The book uses two emblematic characters from Russian culture - the firebird, symbol of the transcendent power of art in defiance of circumstance and the efforts of censors to contain creativity; and the fox, usually female and representing wit, cleverness and the agency of artists and everyone who triumphs over adversity - to explore how Russian cultural life changed between 1850 and 1950. Jeffrey Brooks reveals how high culture drew on folk and popular genres, then in turn influenced an expanding commercial culture. Richly illustrated, The Firebird and the Fox assuredly and imaginatively navigates the complex terrain of this eventful century.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
展示了俄羅斯文學、藝術、音樂和舞蹈在一個世紀動盪中的天才,並在塑造這些藝術形式的動態文化生態系統中,《火鳥與狐狸》探討了這些藝術形式中反覆出現的共同傳統、相互影響和持久主題。這本書使用了兩個來自俄羅斯文化的象徵性角色——火鳥,象徵著藝術在逆境中超越環境和審查者對創造力的限制的超然力量;以及狐狸,通常是女性,代表著智慧、聰明才智以及藝術家和所有在逆境中獲勝者的主動性——來探討1850年至1950年間俄羅斯文化生活的變化。傑佛瑞·布魯克斯揭示了高文化如何汲取民間和流行類型,然後又反過來影響擴張的商業文化。《火鳥與狐狸》以豐富的插圖,確實而富有想像力地導航這個多事的世紀的複雜地形。
