ISBN10: 0271013397, ISBN13: 9780271013398, [publisher: Pennsylvania State University Press.] Hardcover XVI, 215 Seiten / p., Abb. Aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Wolfgang Haase, langjährigem Herausgeber der ANRW und des International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT) / From the library of Prof. Wolfgang Haase, long-time editor of ANRW and the International Journal of the Classical Tradition (IJCT). - Widmung des Autors an Wolfgang Haase / Dedication of the author to Wolfgang Haase - After classical antiquity, the Italian Renaissance raised the portrait, whether literary or pictorial, to the status of an important art form. Among sixteenth-century Renaissance painters, Titian made his reputation, and much of his living, by portraiture. Titians portraits were promoted by his friend, Pietro Aretino, an eminent poet and critic, who addressed his letters and sonnets to the same personages Titian portrayed. In many of these letters ( which often included sonnets ) , Aretino described both an individual patron and Titians portrait of that patron, thus stimulating the reciprocal relation between a verbal and pictorial portrait. By investigating this unprecedented historical phenomenon, Luba Freedman elucidates the meaning conveyed by the portrait as an artistic form in Renaissance Italy. -- Fusing iconographical analysis of the most famous Titian portraits with rhetorical analysis of Aretinos literary legacy as compared to contemporary reactions, Freedman demonstr ...
