false 2032350 1 This book focuses on a puzzling but ubiquitous feature of Renaissance art: continuous narrative, in which several episodes, each including the characters, are shown in a single space or setting. Continuous narratives have often been considered to be incompatible with the new system of representing space, one-point perspective, which has been traditionally understood to freeze time as it unifies pictorial space. In this study, Lew Andrews reassesses the problem and offers a new interpretation of continuous narrative. By looking afresh at the visual narratives of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries within the context of the visual and narrative theories of those times, this study shows that continuous narrative is a progressive feature of Renaissance art, inextricably linked to the expansion of space through one-point perspective. 2037042 13 9 1998 Story and Space in Renaissance Art: The Rebirth of Continuous Narrative total:3|5:2|3:1| 3 13 5 1 2032350 0521646634 9780521646635 3 1 4.33 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2032350.Story_and_Space_in_Renaissance_Art_The_Rebirth_of_Continuous_Narrative 3 0 false Thu May 01 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun May 11 10:08:46 -0700 2008 Sun May 11 10:11:41 -0700 2008 more...]]> 2032350 0521646634 9780521646635 3 1 4.33 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2032350.Story_and_Space_in_Renaissance_Art_The_Rebirth_of_Continuous_Narrative 0 0 false Tue Aug 12 04:31:35 -0700 2008 Tue Aug 12 04:31:35 -0700 2008 2032350 0521646634 9780521646635 3 1 4.33 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2032350.Story_and_Space_in_Renaissance_Art_The_Rebirth_of_Continuous_Narrative 0 0 false Sun May 11 11:13:30 -0700 2008 Sun May 11 11:13:32 -0700 2008 2032350 0521646634 9780521646635 3 1 4.33 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2032350.Story_and_Space_in_Renaissance_Art_The_Rebirth_of_Continuous_Narrative 5 0 false Fri Oct 19 06:11:39 -0700 2007 Fri Oct 19 06:11:39 -0700 2007 2032350 0521646634 9780521646635 3 1 4.33 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/2032350.Story_and_Space_in_Renaissance_Art_The_Rebirth_of_Continuous_Narrative 5 0 false Sun May 04 04:35:40 -0700 2008 Sat Oct 13 03:45:30 -0700 2007 Sun May 04 04:35:40 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=2032350
