When John Huston died at 81 on August 28, 1987, America lost a towering figure in movie history. The director of such classic films as The Treasure of the Sierra Madre, The African Queen, The Maltese Falcon, Prizzi's Honor, and The Dead, John Huston evoked passionate responses from everyone he encountered. He was at the center of a dynasty, with three generations of Oscar winners (Walter, John and Anjelica).

Em Notre-Dame, Ken Follett reflete sobre o papel que a catedral desempenhou ao longo do tempo e revela a influência que ela exerceu tanto em outras catedrais ao redor do mundo quanto em um de seus mais conhecidos e adorados romances, Os Pilares da Terra. Ele descreve, também, as emoções que sentiu ao saber do incêndio que quase destruiu uma das maiores catedrais do mundo.

Anne Fadiman is—by her own admission—the sort of person who learned about sex from her father's copy of Fanny Hill, whose husband buys her 19 pounds of dusty books for her birthday, and who once found herself poring over her roommate's 1974 Toyota Corolla manual because it was the only written material in the apartment that she had not read at least twice. This witty collection of essays recounts a lifelong love affair with books and language.

Ascolta e scopri il capolavoro del pittore olandese. Uno dei più grandi pittori nella storia dell'arte, Rembrandt van Rijn è famoso per i suoi autoritratti, ma dipinse anche molti quadri di paesaggi e scene urbane, come quello che andrai a scoprire in questo Audioquadro: "Ronda di notte".

Ascolta e scopri il capolavoro del pittore francese. Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres fu uno dei più importanti artisti francesi dell'Ottocento, ammirato anche da colleghi come Edgar Degas e Pablo Picasso. Diede vita a uno stile particolare detto "troubadour", le cui opere raffigurano scene ispirate al medioevo e al rinascimento. Quando si parla di Ingres si deve tener conto che con il suo stile, all'apparenza convenzionale, mise in discussione quell'arte degli accademici che lo avevano tanto celebrato.

Ascolta e scopri il capolavoro del pittore veneziano. Antonio Canal, conosciuto come Canaletto, fu uno dei più importanti paesaggisti italiani del Settecento. La sua fama, a buona ragione, si diffuse anche all'estero e in particolare a Londra, dove visse e lavorò per un decennio. Le sue vedute di Venezia, antenate della cartolina vera e propria, sono cariche di dettagli, dipinte con un tratto semplice e pulito che rappresenta la luce in maniera magistrale.

Ascolta e scopri il capolavoro del Rinascimento italiano. Tra la fine del Quattrocento e i primi anni del Cinquecento in Italia, a Milano e a Firenze, si aprì la stagione del Rinascimento maturo con l'emergere di figure straordinarie: Leonardo, Bramante, Raffaello e, naturalmente, Michelangelo Buonarroti. Michelangelo fu un artista assolutamente geniale, la cui attività spaziò dalla scultura, alla pittura, all'architettura, alla scrittura di poesie e nei primi tre campi vi lasciò un segno indelebile.

Ascolta e scopri il capolavoro del pittore spagnolo. Francisco Goya è una delle figure di spicco dell'arte spagnola a cavallo tra XVIII e XIX secolo. Oltre al suo dipinto più famoso, "Maja desnuda", fu autore di diversi ritratti per regnanti, duchi e nobili, ma anche di incisioni e paesaggi. Visse in un periodo di grandi cambiamenti politici e sociali e fu uno dei principali "fotografi" degli eventi dell'epoca, tra cui le rappresaglie dell'esercito francese di Napoleone sulla gente comune in Spagna.

Art history encompasses the study of the history and development of painting, sculpture, and the other visual arts. In this Very Short Introduction audiobook, Dana Arnold presents an introduction to the issues, debates, and artifacts that make up art history. Beginning with a consideration of what art history is, she explains what makes the subject distinctive from other fields of study and also explores the emergence of social histories of art (such as feminist art history and queer art history). 

Christian Dior's career, a veritable fairy tale, is set in a rich tapestry of Paris cultural life before, during, and after the war. Much of Dior's daily inspiration emanated from the world of the intellectual and artistic elite, in which he moved with such people as Erik Satie, Francis Poulenc, Henry Sauguet, Jean Cocteau, and Raoul Dufy.

For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight - or the headlines. Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however, she was always outrunning her past, just one step ahead of the doubts and insecurities that defined her childhood. Inside Out is a story of survival, success, and surrender - a wrenchingly honest portrayal of one woman’s at once ordinary and iconic life.
