Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delightfully unites works from a bygone era: hundreds of iconic devices â" symbolic pictures and accompanying mottoes â" that were popular in the 16th and 17th centuries. This book brings these devices back to life with interpretations of their original meanings, teasing out layers of concealed insight about morality, philosophy, and the human condition. Sometimes interpreting these simple images and phrases feels like deciphering a code, but it's a code that elucidates historical and cultural contexts; the devices, born from the courts and salons of the time, reveal much about how the elite of the Renaissance and early modern eras thought and felt. Ultimately, this book offers a fascinating journey through a forgotten genre of art and literature, allowing readers to appreciate the deep thinking and creativity of people from another time and place. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780282473402_0
