Alfred Jarry

    8 settembre 1873 – 1 novembre 1907

    Alfred Jarry fu uno scrittore francese la cui opera è spesso considerata un precursore del teatro dell'assurdo. Attraverso generi che includono opere teatrali, romanzi, poesie e saggi, i suoi testi aprono la strada alla letteratura dell'assurdo con uno stile distintivo che abbraccia il grottesco e l'incompreso. Jarry inventò anche una pseudoscienza nota come 'Patafisica', che espande ulteriormente i confini del suo mondo letterario e intellettuale. Il suo approccio innovativo e la sua voce unica hanno lasciato un segno indelebile nella storia letteraria.

      A major survey of Dame Laura Knight, first female Royal Academician and popular British artist of the 20th century.Laura Knight (1877–1970) was one of the most famous and popular English artists of the twentieth century. She was the first woman to have a solo exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts, in 1965. In the following decades her realist style of painting fell out of fashion and her work become largely overlooked. A new generation has rediscovered her work, finding a contemporary resonance in her depictions of women at work, of people from marginalized communities and her contributions as a war artist.This beautifully illustrated book, which accompanies a major exhibition at MK Gallery, provides an overview of Knight's illustrious from her training at Nottingham Art School at the age of 13 and her time in North Yorkshire and Cornwall, to her visits to traveller communities and a segregated American hospital. It also features her circus, ballet and theatre scenes, paintings of women during the war and her late paintings of nature.The selection of over 160 works combines celebrated paintings with less known graphic and design works, including ceramics, jewellery and costumes that reflect the artist's enduring interest in the everyday activities of people from all walks of life.

    • The play features a satirical take on power dynamics, focusing on Ubu, who is manipulated by his wife into committing regicide. It parodies Shakespearean themes while employing absurd and juvenile dialogue to convey deeper meanings. As a precursor to the Theatre of the Absurd, it critiques the complacency and greed of the ruling class. Jarry's work is part of a trilogy exploring "pataphysics," showcasing his innovative style and solidifying his role in the modernist movement. This edition includes translations by Beverley Keith and G. Legman.

    • Mezi Jarryho druhé nejvýznamnější souborné dílo patřily Skutky a názory doktora Faustrolla, patafyzika, které bylo vydáno až posmrtně (na Jarryho přání, aby kniha vyšla až v době, která ji bude s to pochopit) a které patafyziku zobrazuje jako „vědu imaginárních výsledků“.

      Le surmâle se distinguerait-il comme la plus moderne des visions mécaniciennes de l'amour ? à l'inverse de ce que prétendent la plupart, il ne s'agit nullement ici d'une exaltation de la mécanique amoureuse mais de sa critique sauvage, qui doit néanmoins sa radicalité au fait de ne jamais perdre de vue l'évidence ouvrant ce livre " l'amour est un acte sans importance puisqu'on peut le faire indéfiniment. "
