The book's thematic chapters investigate Poussin's women in their roles as predators, as lustful or the objects of lust, as lovers, killers, victims, heroines, or models of virtue. Poussin's paintings reflect issues of gender within his social situation as he consciously or unconsciously articulated its conflicts and assumptions. A gender studies approach brings to light new critical insights that illuminate how the artist represented women, both positively and negatively, within the framework in his seventeenth-century culture. This book covers the artist's works from Classical mythology, Roman history, Tasso, and the Bible. It serves as a good overview of Poussin as an artist, discussing the latest research and including new interpretations of his major works. 546 $a Text in English; includes quotations in French, including some with English translation; each chapter begins with "Abstract", in English. 600 10 $a Poussin, Nicolas, $d 1594?-1665 $x Criticism and interpretation. 600 17 $a Poussin, Nicolas, $d 1594?-1665. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00051268 600 17 $a Poussin, Nicolas $d 1594-1665 $2 gnd 650 0 $a Women in art. 650 7 $a Women in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177826 650 7 $a Painting. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01050567 650 7 $a Art, French. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00816279 650 7 $a Sex in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114456 651 7 $a France. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204289 650 7 $a Frau $g Motiv $2 gnd 650 7 $a Frauenbild $2 gnd 650 7 $a Geschlechterrolle $2 gnd 648 7 $a 1600-1699 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 700 12 $a Poussin, Nicolas, $d 1594?-1665. $t Paintings. $k Selections. 830 0 $a Visual and material culture, 1300-1700 ; $v 25. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231019012606.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=61EB71BCE9E911EBBBC9467A3DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
