Paperback, 280 Pages, Published 2000 by University Of Massachusetts Press
ISBN-13: 978-1-55849-229-5, ISBN: 1-55849-229-1

"Technology and landscape have long been understood as inherently antagonistic concepts, reflective of the encroachments of civilization on the natural world. Yet as the essays in this volume make clear, the tension between culture and nature is more apparent than real. Even in preindustrial societies, where the dominant technologies are agricultural, it would be impossible to envision a landscape unshaped by human contact. Drawing on ev ..."

"In writing about Pistorius, Amanda Booher noted that his “super-ability not only excludes him from competition, but constructs him as a kind of cheater circumventing the 'true spirit of fair play and equality'” (Booher 2011: 6). The ideals of fair ..."

Totalitarian Art and Modernity
by Mikkel Bolt Rasmussen, Jacob Wamberg
Paperback, 359 Pages, Published 2010 by Aarhus University Press
ISBN-13: 978-87-7934-560-7, ISBN: 87-7934-560-3

"In spite of the steadily expanding concept of art in the Western world, art made in twentieth-century totalitarian regimes -- notably nazi Germany, fascist Italy and the communist East Bloc countries -- is still to a surprising degree excluded from main stream art history and the exhibits of art museums. In contrast to earlier art made to promote princely or ecclesiastical power, this kind of visual culture seems to somehow not fulfil t ..."

Hardcover, 1,125 Pages, Published 2009 by Aarhus University Press
ISBN-13: 978-87-7934-287-3, ISBN: 87-7934-287-6

"These two volumes present a new and comprehensive theory concerning the manner in which landscapes in Western pictorial art may be interpreted in relation to the cultures that created them. Its point of departure is a hitherto unexplored developmental pattern that characterises landscape representation from Palaeolithic cave paintings through to 19th-century modernity. A structuralist comparison between this pattern and three additional ..."

ISBN-13: 978-87-7934-570-6, ISBN: 87-7934-570-0

"If biotechnology can be used to upgrade humans physically and mentally, should it be used at all? And, if so, to what extent? How will biotechnology affect societal cohesion? Can the development be controlled, or is this a Pandoras box that should remain closed? These are but a few of the perplex questions facing scientists as a result of the increasing ability of technology to change biology and, in turn, profoundly change human living ..."






Art and Alchemy
by Jacob Wamberg, Museum Tusculanum Press
Paperback, 297 Pages, Published 2006 by Museum Tusculanum Press
ISBN-13: 978-87-635-0267-2, ISBN: 87-635-0267-4

"Partly because of alchemy's dismissal from the Parnassus of rational sciences, the interplay between this esoteric knowledge and the visual arts is still a surprisingly neglected research area. This collection of articles covering the time span from the late middle ages to the 20th century intends, however, to challenge the current neglect. Areas on which its 12 authors cast new light include alchemical gender symbolism in Renaissance, ..."

"Danish artist Marco Evaristti is a risk-taker who likes to place himself and the viewer in extremely dangerous real-life situations as part of his artwork. His art calls into question political methods and claims, taking up themes such as territorial power, pollution, possessiveness, and judgments over life and death."
