The Image of the Baroque

Front Cover
Aldo D. Scaglione, Gianni Eugenio Viola
P. Lang, 1995 - 240 pages
In the ongoing attempt to offer new interpretations of cultural phenomena, the Baroque is not one of the most frequently discussed periods, but we can easily agree that it merits new attention. Most of the essays contained in this volume are interdisciplinary; in particular, they integrate literary, ideological, social, and artistic dimensions. Others aim to contribute to a sharper definition of this rather elusive phenomenon.
