Vanguard Productions Thrilling Comic Book Cover Art of Alex Schomburg
Book SynopsisThrilling, Wonder, Captain America, America's Best, Marvel, Exciting, Startling: Alex Schomburg produced the most dazzling array of high-quality comic-book covers in the Golden Age of American Comics. Spider-Man, Hulk, and X-Men co-creator Stan Lee said, "Alex Schomburg was to comic books what Norman Rockwell was to The Saturday Evening Post." Golden Age comic books with Schomburg covers are selling for record prices in America's leading auction houses. This book collects, for the first time, a host of tantalizing Schomburg treasures in one volume. Superheroes, jungle girls, robots, wild animals, and space travelers abound in these romantic and nostalgic Pop-Art icons of the bygone WWII era. Alex Schomburg has won every major award for both science fiction and comic book art, from the Hugo Lifetime Achievement Award to the Inkpot, the Doc Smith Lensman Award, and the Frank R. Paul Award. He was inducted posthumously into the Eisner Awards Hall of Fame. During WWII, Schomburg turned out a plethora of ornate, flamboyant, and outrageously pro-American comic book covers jammed with detail. Schomburg was Timely-Marvel's definitive 1940s cover artist. Ron Goulart, author of Comic Book Culture, called Schomburg the undisputed champ and Hieronymous Bosch of comics artists. After the war, Schomburg's comics subjects shifted toward adorable pin-up quality jungle girls and sci-fi (often signed "Xela") in the trademark airbrush style that made the artist famous as a book and magazine illustrator. About this book, Harlan Ellison said, "Finally and at last! The magnificent answer to the question, 'What do you buy for the Man Who Has Everything?' No matter what age he may be, this every-page-a-wonder assemblage of Schomburg paintings will thrill, charm and delight any guy on his anniversary, birthday, holiday or need for apology from you. It might please women, too, but for guys, for sure."

Siglio Press Robert Seydel: Songs of S.
Book SynopsisThe poetry and drawings of Robert Seydel’s imagined persona S., another persona invented by artist and writer Robert Seydel, was a recluse who kept a great library which he suddenly abandoned along with a manuscript of poems and a slim stack of drawings. These poems--hypnotic, distilled, obsessive and playful--are written by Seydel as S., whom he devises as a naïf, suffering bouts of madness and apophenia. Seydel described S. in his notebooks as "a small ghost who lived alone in an apartment in a house in Amherst, on a gray street and around the corner from Emily Dickinson's manse on Main Street. He wrote prolifically--these small songs & in a journal & drew as well, small strange drawings of heads like hillocks that stare out from the small valleys of the Holyoke." Siglio and Ugly Duckling Presse have collaborated to publish the complete cycle of poems along with a full-color 32-page booklet entitled "Maybe S." that reproduces the drawings made by S. as well as handwritten excerpts from Seydel's notebooks that reveal the creation and revisions of this persona and the mysterious, permeable universe to which he belongs.Trade ReviewThis is a book of great imagination, curious and deep, and profoundly alive. It carries a creative current that’s bound to make you smile, & perhaps sing along. -- Ryan Mihaly * The Improbable *

Bohlau Verlag Aubrey Beardsleys Rezeption des 18. Jahrhunderts
Book SynopsisIn ihrem Buch widmet sich Lisa Hecht einem bisher weitestgehend vernachlassigten Aspekt im Werk des englischen Zeichners und Autors Aubrey Beardsley: der im 19. Jahrhundert weit verbreiteten Begeisterung fur das Ancien Regime. So ist Beardsleys Umgang mit Referenzen und Quellen des englischen und franzosischen 18. Jahrhunderts einer selbstreflexiven und (selbst)-parodistischen Haltung verpflichtet. Neben einer Einfuhrung in die Rokoko-Rezeption in Frankreich und England werden die betrachteten Werke in den kulturellen Rahmen der 1890er Jahre eingeordnet. Nicht nur im Werk Beardsleys oszilliert die Hinwendung zum Rokoko zwischen Rechtfertigungsgestus und subversivem Habitus wie sich zeigen lasst. Die Publikation richtet den Fokus auf die Analyse ausgewahlter Beispiele und auf fruchtbare Bildvergleiche, die Beardsleys Wahlverwandtschaft zu realen und fiktiven Figuren des 18. Jahrhunderts offenbaren. Des Weiteren werden kulturelle Kontinuitaten etwa auf der Ebene des erotischen oder exotischen Bildes sichtbar, welche zwei nur scheinbar disparate Epochen verbinden.

V&R Unipress The Written and the Visual: Representations of
Book SynopsisThe author investigates the points of contact between literature, visual arts and feminist criticism by offering fresh readings of selected Romantic and Victorian poems about women and a discussion of their wide-ranging visual history a subject which has not yet been undertaken in a book-length study. The innovative feature of the project lies in its scope and merit: extensive readings of 19th century poetry, informed by carefully chosen critical approaches, are followed by a rich overview and analysis of visual renderings of the poems in question. uczyska-Hodys has succeeded in bringing to light previously unknown or undiscussed works, and reappraised many well-known paintings and illustrations.

Dover Publications Inc. Folklore and Symbolism of Flowers Plants and
Book SynopsisThis profusely illustrated archive of more than 200 flowers, plants, and trees was compiled by Ernst and Johanna Lehner ? two of the world''s foremost collectors of pictorial symbols (who also happen to be devoted flower enthusiasts). Their comprehensive collection, with illustrations selected from rare sources, extends from the image of a pomegranate, the Chinese symbol of fertility, to a basket of flowers in a nineteenth-century Valentine silhouette. A profusion of bouquets, wreaths, flowers of the months, and other floral designs are also included.In examining the symbolism of flora, the authors consider the religious, magical, and legendary significance of plants such as the mandrake, used as an opiate and love potion; the lotus, revered by the Egyptians and the Mayas of Central America; the mistletoe, a plant believed by the ancients to be capable of raising people from the dead; as well as the Bo tree, sunflower, dragon tree, ice plant, and many other botanical specimens. The development of horticultural images in heraldic devices, emblems, and symbols is also discussed, and a concluding section displays a table summarizing the symbolic meanings of every known species of flora ? from absinthe to zinnia.A visual treat for flower lovers, this volume of royalty-free illustrations is an essential sourcebook for artists and designers. Of value to botanical experts and gardening specialists, it will also appeal to folklore enthusiasts.
