Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The awakening process has received limited attention in comparison with other phases of the circadian cycle. Among its foci, Awakenings in Word and Image takes up persistent allusions to downward movement in such depictions. Despite the familiar phrase, 'wake up,' intimations of downwardness or falling often appear in tandem with retrieval of a depicted subject's identity following sleep. Awakenings in Word and Image also makes clear that, while this process is body-based, such a designation is often applied to enhancements of consciousness, whether within an individual or across a culture. On the verbal side, material from Plato, the New Testament, Proust, and other sources is considered. Visual art discussed includes work by Italian frescoist Taddeo Zuccari and acclaimed New York painter Vincent Desiderio .

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Nathaniel Wallace's Scanning the Hypnoglyph chronicles a contemporary genre that exploits sleep's evocative dimensions. While dreams, sleeping nudes, and other facets of the dormant state were popular with artists of the early twentieth century (and long before), sleep experiences have given rise to an even wider range of postmodern artwork. Scanning the Hypnoglyph first assesses the modernist framework wherein the sleeping subject typically enjoys firm psychic grounding. As postmodernism begins, subjective space is fragmented, the representation of sleep reflecting the trend. Among other topics, this book demonstrates how portrayals of dormant individuals can reveal imprints of the self. Gender issues are taken up as well. 'Mainstream,' heterosexual representations are considered along with depictions of gay, lesbian, and androgynous sleepers.
