Raymond B. Waddington's study redresses this oversight, drawing together literary and visual arts criticism in its examination of Aretino's carefully cultivated scandalous persona ? a persona created through his writings, his behaviour and through a wide variety of visual arts and crafts.In the Renaissance, it was believed that satire originated from satyrs. The satirist Aretino promoted himself as a satyr, the natural being whose sexuality guarantees its truthfulness. Waddington shows how Aretino's own construction of his public identity came to eclipse the value of his writings, causing him to be denigrated as a pornographer and blackmailer. Arguing that Aretino's deployment of an artistic network for self-promotional ends was so successful that for a period his face was possibly the most famous in Western Europe, Waddington also defends Aretino, describing his involvement in the larger sphere of the production and promotion of the visual arts of the period.Aretino's Satyr is richly illustrated with examples of the visual media used by the writer to create his persona. These include portraits by major artists, and arti minori: engravings, portrait medals and woodcuts.Toronto Italian studiesLITERARY CRITICISM / European / ItalianbisacshElectronic books.LITERARY CRITICISM / European / Italian.858/.309Waddington Raymond B.297758MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910456329603321Aretino's satyr21159UNINA00994nam0 22002771i 450 UON0039063520231205104610.27188-8124-585-X20110330d2005 |0itac50 baitaIT|||| |||||Capirai Michele RomanoRomaSoverac200559 p.ill.21 cm.001UON003906372001 ˆLa ‰ricerca letterariaa cura di Luca Carbonara210 RomaSovera.ITRomaUONL000004851.9Poesia italiana. 1900-21ROMANOMicheleUONV20108339304SoveraUONV277950650ITSOL20240220RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOUONSIUON00390635SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEOSI Franc VAR ROM SI DA 3561 7 Capirai1354879UNIOR
