"Art & Lies" is a dangerous book, banked with ideas forced out of the words themselves, not words for things, but words that are living things with the power to move.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***The reader must patch the plot together by picking out clues that are embedded, unchronologically, in what might be called a tapestry of words --- except that a tapestry presents a static picture, and what Winterson has created here has the quality of movement, more like the play of a great many shifting, shimmering lights. ***At once playful and deeply serious, Winterson conjures up her alternate world with language that is bold and strange and often dazzlingly beautiful.

Brossura. Etat : nuovo. 156pp. Estratto da ORIENTALIA CHRISTIANA PERIODICA 83 (2017), fasc. I-II --- The Laurentian Library in Florence owns an Arabic manuscript with the apocryphal Gospel of the Infancy of Our Lord (cod. Orientali 387), which i illustrated with over fifty drawings. It has the size of a notebook. The text of the manuscript was first published by M. E. Provera, for the Custodia Francescana di Terra Santa and more recently by S. Voicu. Only a few of the illustrations have been hitherto published. A colophon states that the manuscript was written in Mardin in 1299 C.E., that is during the so-called Syriac Renaissance. Differently from the contemporary Gospel lectionaries in Syriac, the illustrations are in Islamic style. The Gospel of the Infancy is part of a group of narratives of the early days of Jesus; scholars claim that all the writings of the group hark back to a lost fifth-century Syriac narrative. The miracles accomplished by Jesus' bathwater and swaddling bands are the core of the narrative. The chapters of the Gospel tell miracles, healing diseases, casting out demons, and popular events of everyday life. Women's matters dominate the Florentina Gospel: care of children, their diseases, possession, eroticism, beauty, jealousy. The Gospel is completed by a harmony of the events from the canonical Gospels, passages from the Gospel of Nicodemus, and a prologue with Zoroaster prophesying that a virgin will bear the Messiah in Bethlehem.…
