Essays & Correspondence

<p>David Malouf explores some of the "untold tales" behind familiar stories -- historical, mythic, and legendary -- while at the same time offering a series of meditations on the role of folktales and storytelling in shaping human lives. In each of these four tales, Malouf's own skill as a storyteller is balanced by his feel for language and by a contemplative approach to the ancient craft of narrative invention.</p>

Questions of Meaning: Theme and Motif in Dutch Seventeenth-Century Painting

This study of 17th-century paintings - allegories, portraits, still lifes and genre paintings - recognizes the subject matter as more than a purely visual one and examines the works as a cultural manifestation, examining themes and motifs that are included in the works. De Jongh explores visual traditions, prints, emblems, writings and folklore and through a realization that there are limits to the interpretation of visual representations, he also employs methodological and theoretical issues. De Jongh wrote these essays over a period of 25 years. All these articles have now been revised. The introduction has been rewritten especially for this anthology and many new illustrations have been added.

Jongh, E. De
