Re-membering masculinity in early modern Florence : widowed bodies, mourning, and portraiture / by Levy, Allison M.(Allison Mary),1968-(CARDINAL)354218;
Includes bibliographical references and index.Disjecta membra -- Mnemonic v(o)ices -- The widow's cleavage -- The death of the fathers -- Phantom limbs -- The big stiff."This book expands and nuances our understanding of Renaissance portraiture; the author shows it to be complexly generated within a discourse of male anxiety and pre-mortuary mourning. She argues that portraiture could defer memory loss, or at the very least, pictorially console the subject against his own potentially unmourned death." "Re-membering Masculinity generates new ideas about both male and female portraiture in early modern Florence, raises even more questions about the experiences and representations of widowhood and mourning, and re-configures our understanding of masculinity - from the early modern male body to 'Renaissance Man' to postmodern manhood."--BOOK JACKET.
