2001169308Princeton NJ: Princeton University Press 2001. Hardcover. New in shrinkwrap. Cream boards with black cloth spine. Color-illustrated dust jacket with red lettering. viii 223 pp. Illustrations. "Edouard Manet's paintings have long been recognized for being visually compelling and uniquely recalcitrant. While critics have noted the presence of family members and intimates in paintings such as Le Dejeuner sur l'herbe Nancy Locke takes an unprecedented look at the significance of the artist's family relationships for his art. Locke argues that a kind of mythology of the family or Freudian family romance frequently determined Manet's compositional decisions and choice of models. By looking at the representation of the family as a volatile mechanism for the development of sexuality and of repression conflict and desire Locke brings powerful new interpretations to some of Manet's most complex works." "Locke considers for example the impact of a father-son drama rooted in a closely guarded family secret: the adultery of Manet pere and the status of Leon Leenhoff. Her nuanced exploration of the implications of this story - that Manet in fact married his father's mistress - makes us look afresh at even well-known paintings such as Olympia. This book sheds new light on Manet's infamous interest in gypsies street musicians and itinerants as Locke analyzes the activities of Manet's father as a civil judge. She also reexamines the close friendship between Manet and the Impressionist painter Berthe Morisot who married Manet's brother. Morisot becomes the subject of a series of meditations on the elusiveness of the self the transience of identity and conflicting concerns with appearances and respectability. Manet and the Family Romance offers an entirely new set of arguments about the cultural forces that shaped these alluring paintings."--Jacket. Princeton University Press hardcover books

Overall a very good copy. ìLockeÃs concern for the toleration of religious dissent for the interaction of individual conscience and public authority was long-standing. In his early tracts on the civil magistrate.he had felt that the need for order in society justified the authority of the magistrate over matters indifferent to salvation. Under the influence of Shaftesbury and of his own investigations of the scope of certain knowledge his emphasis changed. Without certainty in matters of religion the conscience must be allowed liberty; the authority of the magistrate must be confined to preserving the existence of society and the safety and property of the citizen. LockeÃs thoughts on this subject as on so many others matured during his stay in Holland where his circle of friends consisted primarily of dissenters from the established church such as the Remonstrant pastor and theologian Philippus van Limborch. In 1686 Locke drafted a letter in Latin to his friend which was published probably by Limborch in 1689î Attig p. 12. The Epistola de tolerantia was almost immediately translated into English and published in London. It was ìimmediately attacked in two anonymous pamphlets the most significant of which was ProastÃs Argument March 1690. LockeÃs own response was equally swift and his Second letter appeared in June. Proast replied to LockeÃs Second letter with his Third letter concerning toleration 1691. Locke in response published A third letter for toleration the following year. Proast did not return to the attack until 1704 when he published his Second letter to the author of the three letters for toleration. Locke was defended by an anonymous author probably John Shute Barrington in the postscript to The rights of the Protestant dissenters. At the time of his death that same year Locke had begun his own reply. The draft was published by his executors Peter King and Anthony Collins in 1706î Attig pp. 18-19. Attig 93. Rothschild 2733.
