The subsequent five centuries were punctuated by many illustrated editions; imaginary portraits of the eponymous procuress Celestina by painters such as Murillo, Goya, and Picasso; and, more recently, screen and stage adaptations. Celestina became the prototype from which later representations of procuresses and bawds derived.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eThe Image of Celestina\u003c\/i\u003e sheds light on the visual culture that developed around \u003ci\u003eLa Celestina\u003c\/i\u003e, including paintings, illustrations, and advertisements. Enrique Fern?ndez examines \u003ci\u003eLa Celestina\u003c\/i\u003e as a mixed-media text, incorporating methods from disciplines such as art history and women's and cinema studies, and considers a variety of images including promotional posters, lobby pictures, and playbills of theatrical and cinematic adaptations of the book. Using a visual studies approach, \u003ci\u003eThe Image of Celestina\u003c\/i\u003e ultimately illuminates the culture of Celestina, a mythical figure, who surpasses the literary text in which she originated.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnrique Fernández \u003c\/strong\u003eis a professor of Spanish at the University of Manitoba.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.81 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 29, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47460811833597,"sku":"9781487549787","price":160.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/EMnU_ekNDC9781487549787.webp?v=1777256283","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/the-image-of-celestina-illustrations-paintings-and-advertisements-hardcover","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
