Just like us, medieval men and women worried about growing old, got blisters and indigestion, fell in love, and had children. And yet their lives were full of miraculous and richly metaphorical experiences radically different from our own, unfolding in a world where deadly wounds might be healed overnight by divine intervention, or where the heart of a king, plucked from his corpse, could be held aloft as a powerful symbol of political rule.

¿Qué es y para qué sirve la cultura? Más allá de definiciones simplistas e inveteradas que hacen de ella ora el mero producto intelectual y artístico de la élite, ora la manifestación de la humanidad en sentido antropológico, este iluminador ensayo pone el foco en la dimensión colectiva de los fenómenos culturales, es decir, en la relevancia social que, con independencia de consideraciones personales, nos involucra a todos, pues ¿qué sentido tiene si no nos ayuda a pensar y hacer posible un mundo mejor?

Die kulturtheoretische Schrift "Das Unbehagen in der Kultur" gehört zum Alterswerk Sigmund Freuds. Dem allgemeinen naiven Fortschrittsglauben widersprechend und von einem tiefen Kulturpessimismus durchdrungen, formuliert Freud in diesem einflussreichen Text die These, dass der Einzelne im Umfeld der Kultur, in die er integriert ist, dazu gezwungen wird, seine Triebe, insbesondere seinen Sexualtrieb und seinen Aggressionstrieb, zu unterdrückt.

In an age unhealthily obsessed with substance, this is a book on the importance of pure style, from the best-selling author of The Etymologicon and The Horologicon. From classic poetry to pop lyrics and from the King James Bible to advertising slogans, Mark Forsyth explains the secrets that make a phrase - such as 'Tiger, Tiger, burning bright', or 'To be or not to be' - memorable. In his inimitably entertaining and witty style he takes apart famous lines and shows how you, too, can write like Shakespeare or Oscar Wilde.

Para Francis Schaeffer, o cristão deve usar as artes para glorificar a Deus, não simplesmente como propaganda evangelística, mas como algo belo para a glória de Deus. "A Arte e a Bíblia" é uma obra fundamental para cristãos atuantes no mundo das artes. Neste clássico, Schaeffer examina o registro escritural da utilização de várias formas artísticas e estabelece uma perspectiva cristã sobre a arte. Com clareza e vigor, ele explica por que "o cristão é alguém cuja imaginação deve voar além das estrelas".

In Mind in Motion, psychologist Barbara Tversky shows that spatial cognition isn't just a peripheral aspect of thought, but its very foundation, enabling us to draw meaning from our bodies and their actions in the world. Our actions in real space get turned into mental actions on thought, often spouting spontaneously from our bodies as gestures. Spatial thinking underlies creating and using maps, assembling furniture, devising football strategies, designing airports, understanding the flow of people, traffic, water, and ideas.

In 1529, Michelangelo was in Venice when he first met Titian, Venice's famed painter of princes, gods, and goddesses. Coming face-to-face with Titian's drama-infused, richly colored works, the creator of David and the Sistine Chapel ceiling realized he had met a worthy opponent. Twenty-five years later, Titian came to Rome to paint the pope, and the two met again. Painting in the Vatican, Titian experienced the full power of Michelangelo's work and vowed to surpass the achievements of his older contemporary.

Michael Peppiatt met Francis Bacon in June 1963 in Soho's French House to request an interview for a student magazine he was editing. Bacon invited him to lunch, and over oysters and Chablis they began a friendship and a no-holds-barred conversation that would continue until Bacon's death 30 years later. Fascinated by the artist's brilliance and charisma, Peppiatt accompanied him on his nightly round of prodigious drinking from grand hotel to louche club and casino, seeing all aspects of Bacon's 'gilded gutter life' and meeting everybody around him.
