Metamorfosi Delle Rovine

Milano, Electa, 2013. Softcover. Octavo. Softcover. Yellow card covers with full flaps. 111 p. : ill. ; 23 cm. Il saggio prende le mosse dalla constatazione che faceva Arnaldo Momigliano e cioè che le tracce della nostra storia nei monumenti, nel paesaggio sono così imponenti da incuriosirci e obbligarci a studiare il passato per capire una parte importante di noi stessi, soprattutto in un'epoca in cui il modello culturale occidentale, quello che affonda le sue radici nel mondo classico, pare sospinto verso una marginalità che si frantuma nell'impatto con altre culture ansiose di emergere. Comprendiamo così come le rovine conservino da un lato l'immagine di "memento mori", allusione romantica alla transitorietà di ogni opera umana, al passaggio inesorabile del tempo, al declino delle civiltà, al disfacimento delle culture, profezia di un destino possibile perché non c'è requie alla distruzione; dall'altro esse costituiscono fortunatamente il simbolo della caparbia resistenza degli esseri umani di fronte alle sciagure peggiori e serbano il carattere distintivo e inalienabile della nostra identità culturale. Italian language. VG. Light smudge on cover, small bump to bottom fore edge corner.

"This work being merely intended as a Catalogue raisonne of the contents of a Saxon Cemetery, excavated by me during the Autumn of 1851, I have contented myself with detailing the results of my labours and abstained from making any observation on the nature, and application of the relics exhumed, feeling confident that a faithful delineation will be far more satisfactory than the most diffuse, and lengthended treatise."-Preface.

Nahan : Five Hundred Arhats of Changnyeongsa Temple Site

Seoul, Korea, National Museum of Korea, 2020. Hardcover. Hardcover with printed image and embosed title. 293 pages : illustrations, maps (mostly color) Item is still in the original unopened plastic wrap. A newly adapted and edited version of the Korean catalog for the special exhibition Five Hundred Arhats of Changnyeongsa Temple Site: Reflection of Our Hearts, presented at the Chuncheon National Museum in 2018 and the National Museum of Korea in 2019. The five hundred arhats were discovered in May 2001 at the site of old Changnyeongsa Temple in Yeongwol, Gangwon-do Province. The arhats' very approachable, simple, and friendly faces of ordinary Koreans, rather than having the sacred faces of enlightenment, captivated and delighted audiences when displayed at the exhibitions. The Korean word nahan - a transliterated and shortened form of the Sanskrit words arahan or arahat - means the saints who gained enlightenment from the teachings of Sakyamuni. Projecting deep faith surpassing the realm of religion, the arhats of Changnyeongsa Temple Site introduce a new kind of Korean aesthetic to the world. VG+ .
