With this engaging new volume, Sylvester Ogbechie refutes this approach by examining the life and work of Ben Enwonwu (1917-94), a premier African modernist and pioneer whose career opened the way for the postcolonial proliferation and increased visibility of African art. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In the decades between Enwonwu's birth and death, modernization produced new political structures and new forms of expression in African cultures, inspiring important developments in modern African art. Within this context, Ogbechie evaluates important issues such as the role of Anglo-Nigerian colonial culture in the development of modern Nigerian art, and Enwonwu's involvement with international discourses of modernism in Europe, Africa, and the United States over a period of five decades. The author also interrogates Enwonwu's use of the radical politics of Negritude ideology to define modern African art against canonical interpretations of Euro-modernism; and the artist's visual and critical contributions to Pan Africanism, Nigerian nationalism, and postcolonial interpretations of African modernity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFirst and foremost an intellectual biography of Ben Enwonwu as a modern African artist, rather than an exhaustive critical exploration of the discourse of modernism in African art history or in modern art in general, \u003ci\u003eBen Enwonwu\u003c\/i\u003e situates the artist historically and interprets his work in ways that surpass traditional discourse around the canon of modern art.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 332\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 07, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58918298779992,"sku":"9781648251061","price":62.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/1220\/7960\/files\/HlFgP5tdRp9781648251061.webp?v=1792833039"},{"product_id":"on-the-minor-prophecies-of-william-blake-paperback","title":"On the Minor Prophecies of William Blake - Paperback","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: right;\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/reportcopyrightinfringement.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"\u003e\u003cb\u003eReport copyright infringement\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cp\u003eby \u003cb\u003eEmily S.

Hamblen is a scholarly work that delves into the lesser-known prophecies of the famous English poet and artist William Blake. The book explores Blake's prophetic works, including his illuminated books, and examines their themes, symbolism, and significance. Hamblen provides a detailed analysis of Blake's prophetic vision, drawing on his religious and philosophical beliefs, as well as his artistic style and literary techniques. The book also includes a discussion of the historical and cultural context in which Blake lived and worked, and how this influenced his prophetic writings. Overall, On the Minor Prophecies of William Blake offers a comprehensive and insightful exploration of Blake's lesser-known works, shedding light on his unique vision and artistic legacy.Those students who have found only frustration in this giant mystic, will here find set forth the structural plan conceived to underlie the poet's cosmic conceptions, and to tie them into an organic whole. For this psychological key, the author has gone back for her sources to the ancient Scriptures, including the Kabbala, to the occult writings of Nietzsche, Thoreau, Boehme and Whitman and early Oriental philosophers. The key to the mystery of Blake is this: that he was a true seer and spokesman because he had come to an understanding of the processes of his own soul.
