Synopsis Thirty Statues by : Scott Gosnell
Written in 1591 and published posthumously, Bruno's Lamps of the Thirty Statues presents an advanced example of the memory palace technique, He presents a periodic table or encyclopedia of classical philosophy, representing thirty abstract ideas through images taken from Ovid's Metamorphoses. These images are then given attributes which can be combined and manipulated to address fundamental arguments and isues of philosophical interest. At the same time, he develops a theogony and a categorization scheme for substances and concepts through the framework of the scale of nature and the scale of predicates or ideas. First English Translation.

Synopsis Thirty Seals & the Seal of Seals by : Giordano Bruno
Giordano Bruno's third work on the Art of Memory or memory palace consists of a set of seals, which represent data structures for arranging and developing memory images and for processing mental representations and propositions. In this work, he fully combines for the first time both the retrospective Art of Memory and the prospective art of logic and judgment originally developed by Ramon Llull. Appended to this is the Seal of Seals, a discussion of psychological dynamics from a Neoplatonic viewpoint.

Synopsis Art Of Memory by : F A Yates
First Published in 1999. This title is the third volume in the ten-volume set titled the Selected Works of Frances Yates. Greyscale illustrations and figures are included throughout - alongside the related descriptive work where applicable. The art in this volume seeks to memorise through a technique of impressing 'places' and 'images' on memory. It has usually been classed as 'mnemotechnics', which appears an unimportant branch of human activity. However, the author discusses in this title that the manipulation of images in memory must always, to some extent, involve the psyche.

Synopsis The Tyrant-slayers of Ancient Athens by : Vincent Azoulay
This investigation relies on a rash bet: to write the biography of two of the most famous statues in Antiquity, the Tyrannicides. By recreating the eventful life of these statues, from their birth to their disappearance, Vincent Azoulay reveals that they were much more than a simple reflection: an acting symbol that models and makes history.

Synopsis Ancient Egyptian Prisoner Statues by : Tara Prakash
During the Old Kingdom, the ancient Egyptians constructed elaborately decorated mortuary monuments for their pharaohs. By the late Old Kingdom (ca. 2435-2153 BCE), these pyramid complexes began to contain a new and unique type of statue, the so-called prisoner statues. Despite being known to Egyptologists for decades, these statues of kneeling, bound foreign captives have been only partially documented, and questions surrounding their use, treatment, and exact meaning have remained unanswered. Ancient Egyptian Prisoner Statues-the first comprehensive analysis of the prisoner statues-addresses this gap, demonstrating that the Egyptians conceived of and used the prisoner statues differently over time as a response to contemporary social, cultural, and historical changes. In the process, the author contributes new data and interpretations on topics as diverse as the purpose and function of the pyramid complex, the ways in which the Egyptians understood and depicted ethnicity, and the agency of artists in ancient Egypt. Ultimately, this volume provides a fuller understanding of not only the prisoner statues but also the Egyptian late Old Kingdom as a whole.

Synopsis The Water Statues by : Fleur Jaeggy
Family, obsession, and privilege boiled down by the icy-hot Swiss-Italian master stylist Fleur Jaeggy Even among Fleur Jaeggy’s singular and intricate works, The Water Statues is a shiningly peculiar book. Concerned with loneliness and wealth’s odd emotional poverty, this early novel is in part structured as a play: the dramatis personae include the various relatives, friends, and servants of a man named Beeklam, a wealthy recluse who keeps statues in his villa’s flooded basement, where memories shiver in uncertain light and the waters run off to the sea. Dedicated to Ingeborg Bachmann and fleshed out with Jaeggy’s austere yet voluptuous style, The Water Statues—with its band of deracinated, loosely related souls (milling about as often in the distant past as in the mansion’s garden full of intoxicated snails)—delivers like a slap an indelible picture of the swampiness of family life.

Synopsis Song of Circe & On the Composition of Images by : Scott Gosnell
These works on the Art of Memory bracket Giordano Bruno's ten year journey through the centers of learning in late 16th century Europe.Song of Circe was written in 1583, near the outset of Girodano Bruno's career in England as a simplified version of the memory palace technique developed in On the Shadows of Ideas, at the request of his students there. On the Composition of Ideas was Bruno's last published work in 1591, shortly before he fell into the hands of the Inquisition. Both works demonstrate the phenomenally complex scale and intricacy of the Art of Memory, incorporating the techniques described in Thirty Seals and Thirty Statues to form a truly universal imaginary inner landscape.
