DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Th author explains that his study is an inquiry into how theorists, critics, and artists--especially writers--have used the mirror as a metaphor. Following a theoretical discussion concerning material and figurative mirrors, Schlig (Spanish, Agnes College) examines this metaphor from various angles--art as mirror, mirrors in art, mirrors as art. He then traces the importance of mirrors through the major aesthetic movements of 18th- and 19th-century Spain, including Neoclassicism, Romanticism, Realism and Naturalism, and the Avant-Garde.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →This study is concerned with the function of the mirror metaphor in texts by three modern African-American authors. Wright's photo-text 12 Million Black Voices, Baldwin's early essays, and Ellison's novel Invisible Man go back to the time before the Civil Rights Movement when their authors envisioned social and cultural integration in the American melting pot rather than a separate literature of their own. In this context the mirror metaphor leads directly to the thematic core of each text in which issues of visibility, social recognition, the formation of self-images, and the power of stereotypes play central roles. In close readings the author shows how the mirror metaphor functions as a means to model the relationship between self and other and serves to shift the readers' attention to the complex, yet largely invisible machinery of representation.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →House as a Mirror of Self presents an unprecedented examination of our relationship to where we live, interwoven with compelling personal stories of the search for a place for the soul. Marcus takes us on a reverie of the special places of childhood--the forts we made and secret hiding places we had--to growing up and expressing ourselves in the homes of adulthood. She explores how the self-image is reflected in our homes/ power struggles in making a home together with a partner/ territory, control, and privacy at home/ self-image and location/ disruptions in the boding with home/ and beyond the "house as ego" to the call of the soul. As our culture is swept up in home improvement to the extent of having an entire TV network devoted to it, this book is essential for understanding why the surroundings that we call home make us feel the way we do. With this information we can embark on home improvement that truly makes room for our soul.
