"In this beautifully written book, Christiane Hertel 'sites' China across a range of eighteenth-century German court arts, allowing the reader to travel between imagery as varied as silhouettes, the 'Chinese' village of Mulang, commedia dell'arte , and dining utensils. Each 'siting' creates, or is informed by, frames, mediations, imitations, and assimilations that challenge our conceptions of what 'China' might have meant in the eighteenth century. The work's most important contribution is its ability to open the decorative arts to interpretive acts akin to sophisticated textual readings." -Dawn Odell, Lewis and Clark College, "The process by which a culture regards another is complex. That ambivalence lies at the center of Christiane Hertel's brilliant study of chinoiserie, the so-called Chinese taste, as it developed in eighteenth-century Germany. Hertel demonstrates how this seemingly frivolous, disconnected evocation of a distant land was a process by which Germany negotiated its place in an ever-changing world, with its effects detectable in twentieth-century German literature and German Expressionist painting. Her profoundly insightful study results from a deep, career-long knowledge of its subjects." -Michael Yonan, author of Empress Maria Theresa and the Politics of Habsburg Imperial Art, "This is an exciting, if demanding, read, and the book will no doubt form a milestone in literature about the West's fascination with and interpretation of the East. Each chapter could easily have been turned into a standalone publication, such is the depth and breadth of the material presented." --Alexandra Loske Journal of the History of Collections, "This is an exciting, if demanding, read, and the book will no doubt form a milestone in literature about the West's fascination with and interpretation of the East.

It tackles the intimidating complexity of the materially and culturally multi-layered objects associated with chinoiserie by carefully disentangling their seemingly contradictory meanings through the use of visual analysis, period texts, and translation theory. Siting China in Germany is a rich and complex book that constitutes a milestone on a road connecting Europe and Asia much traveled by artists and scholars alike." --Anna Grasskamp, 21: Inquiries into Art, History, and the Visual, "In this erudite book Hertel makes an important contribution to the recent reassessment of chinoiserie." --K.

Synopsis
Chinoiserie--the use of motifs, materials, and techniques considered "Chinese" in ceramics, furniture, interior design, and landscape architecture--has often been associated with courtly decadence and shallow escapism. In Siting China in Germany , Christiane Hertel challenges conventional assumptions about this art form by developing a fresh, complex perspective on collections, gardens, and literature in the long eighteenth century. From the extraordinary porcelain palaces at Dresden and Rastatt and the gardens of Wilhelmsthal and Wilhelmshöhe in Kassel to the literary and artistic translation practices in Dresden and Thomas Mann's historical novel Lotte in Weimar , Hertel interprets the extensive history of chinoiserie within but also beyond court culture. In particular, her study focuses on how manifestations of chinoiserie in Germany oscillated between the imagination, judgment, and critique of cultural and historical difference as well as identity. Hertel's erudite analysis of the cultural significance of German chinoiserie will interest art historians and scholars of Orientalism, German Sinophilia, and German Sinophobia., Chinoiserie--the use of motifs, materials, and techniques considered "Chinese" in ceramics, furniture, interior design, and landscape architecture--has often been associated with courtly decadence and shallow escapism.

- o***l (310)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Dernière annéeAchat vérifiéThe item was described to a Tee. Very good communication. Shipping was just a little slow. The box the set of books comes in was damaged (bent corners) due to packaging. Not a deal breaker because the grand kids will not store in that box; might be if it were to be given as a present. The three books in the box arrived in prefect shape. I WOULD purchase from greatbookprices1 again in the future. ThanksConstruction Site Board Books Set, Hardcover by Rinker, Sherri Duskey; Lichte...

- i***y (711)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Six derniers moisAchat vérifié2 volumes of Pogo comic strips, new and in perfect condition. Price was good, but shipping cost ($30 for two books) seems like a lot for how long it took to get delivered (23 days from Illinois to Spain). Also, seller communication was not great. First two times I wrote, their response did not address question. Third response explained at length about the private courier service they use and how it should take 1-10 business days to deliver. Maybe they should consider a different courier service.
- r***_ (108)- Évaluation laissée par l'acheteur.Dernier moisAchat vérifié*Same as the other review* Purchased two box sets from this seller with one being advertised as "like new" but was delivered as if it was actually new. Shipping time was a little slow, takes about 10 days to ship out and it takes a while to get through the system. But the packing was great and I'm still overall happy with my purchase.
