Referat / Aufsatz (Schule) aus dem Jahr 2010 im Fachbereich Kunst - Kunstgeschichte; Note: A; ; Sprache: Deutsch; Abstract: Die Kunst der RenaissanceAufbruch in die Neuzeit am Beispiel Andrea Palladio________________________________________Leitfrage:War die Renaissance nur eine Epoche der Wiedergeburt der antiken Kunst oder hinterlieszlig; sie ihre eigenstauml;ndigen Spuren in der Kunstgeschichte?1.Erlauml;uterung der Epochea.Begriff sbquo;Renaissancelsquo;Als Renaissance bezeichnet man eine Epoche beginnend im 14. Jahrhundert; die sich bis zum spauml;ten 16. Jahrhundert ausstreckt. Sie bezeichnet den Uuml;bergang von Mittelalter zu Neuzeit. In der Kunstgeschichte unterscheidet man zwischen drei Abschnitten der Renaissance: Der Fruuml;hrenaissance; der Hochrenaissance und der Spauml;trenaissance; beziehungsweise des Manierismus. Diese fast 200 Jahre wauml;hrende Epoche war eine Zeit des tief greifenden kulturellen Wandels.Der Begriff sbquo;Renaissancelsquo; stammt aus dem franzouml;sischen und bedeutet im Deutschen sbquo;Wiedergeburtlsquo;. Erstmals wurde diese Epoche 1550 von dem italienischen Kuuml;nstlerbiographen Giorgio Vasari in seinem Buch sbquo;Vitelsquo; als Wiedergeburt bezeichnet. Jedoch verwendete Giorgio Vasari noch den italienischen Begriff sbquo;rinascitagrave;lsquo; und bezeichnete damit die Loslouml;sung von der mittelalterlichen Kunst; sowie eine sich damals entwickelnde Geisteshaltung. Das Mittelalter an sich betrachtete er als eine kurze Phase des Verfalls; obgleich einige Tendenzen jener Zeit auch in die Kunst der Renaissance uuml;bertragen wurden. Laut Vasari entstand die Renaissance aus dem wachsendem Verlangen des Menschen zu lernen und zu verstehen. Die franzouml;sische Uuml;bersetzung sbquo;Renaissancelsquo; wurde in Deutschland erst im 19.Jahrhundert durch den Kunsthistoriker Jacob Burckhardt als Bezeichnung der Epoche und als Stilbegriff verwendet.

Good Reference for Moderately Knowledgeable KnittersBy Lynne E.Lori Ihnen; the author of COLORWORK FOR ADVENTUROUS KNITTERS; is clearly an expert knitter who thoroughly understands colorwork knitting. In each book section (stripes; slipstitch/mosaic; stranding; intarsia; duplicate stitch/embroidery); she touches on all of the important technical issues; such as fixing "jogs" in striped or stranded circular knitting; or carrying colors in Fair Isle (stranded) knitting so that the motifs will stand out from the backgrounds.However; I dont believe that Ihnens step-by-step technical instructions are systematic enough or complete enough to teach new knitters all the things they ought to know when learning to do each type of knitting. For example; in talking about intarsia knitting; Ihnen notes that the "[t]he main technique with intarsia is the twist or interlock of one color to the next"; and that "[i]f you do not interlock your color changes; you will produce holes in your work." She then goes on to talk about making yarn butterflies; without ever explaining what is meant by "twist or interlock". On a following page; "interlocking" is illustrated with photos of actual knitting; but I know that I would find the authors accompanying written instructions very confusing if I were just learning to do intarsia knitting. When I was starting out; I was mystified by instructions that mentioned "twisting" the yarns--and only after taking some knitting classes did I understand that the yarns are not "twisted" at all but only laid across each other at color changes.COLORWORK FOR ADVENTUROUS KNITTERS has beautiful; full-color photographs of a limited number of colorwork techniques; some nice colorwork design patterns; and some simple colorwork projects. Overall; the book seems like a very good set of knitting class notes--if you already know something about colorwork knitting; then its an excellent reference that includes many advanced tips that are easy to forget when class is over. I rate this book at 3 stars ("Its OK" on the official scale).If youre a new knitter who wants to learn to do colorwork knitting; there are several books that I would particularly recommend. The classics are Intarsia: A workshop for hand machine knitting; Alice Starmores Book of Fair Isle Knitting; Mosaic Knitting; and Slip-Stitch Knitting. In addition; there are a couple of recent; very good comprehensive books that I like much better than this one: The Essential Guide to Color Knitting Techniques; and Mastering Color Knitting: Simple Instructions for Stranded; Intarsia; and Double Knitting.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
