    "How has humanity sought to harness the power of the Sun, and what roles have literature, art and other cultural forms played in imagining, mythologizing and reflecting the possibilities of solar energy? What stories have been told about solar technologies, and how have these narratives shaped developments in science and culture? What can solar power's history tell us about its future, within a world adapting to climate crisis? Identifying the history of capturing solar radiance as a focal point between science and the imagination, Imagining Solar Energy argues that the literary, artistic and mythical resonances of solar power - from the Renaissance to the present day - have not only been inspired by, but have also cultivated and sustained its scientific and technological development. Ranging from Archimedes to Isaac Asimov, John Dee to Humphry Davy, Aphra Behn to J. G. Ballard, the book argues that solar energy translates into many different kinds of power (physical, political, intellectual and cultural), and establishes for the first time the importance of solar energy to many literary and scientific endeavours."--...

    Auteur célèbre d'une oeuvre multiforme et singulière, Hélène Cixous est surtout connue pour son théâtre et ses écrits sur la poétique de la différence sexuelle. Cette étude traite pour la première fois d'une seule des fictions d'Hélène Cixous, Portrait du soleil (1973). Elle tente d'expliciter le fonctionnement narratif et poétique et de relever les thèmes et motifs essentiels de cette oeuvre en les mettant à l'épreuve de la métaphore solaire. Constatant une solarité généralisée, elle propose une ouverture sur l'ensemble de l'oeuvre d'Hélène Cixous, en particulier son livre le plus récent, O R, les lettres de mon père (1997), et touche à la profonde motivation d'une écriture. Cette analyse, qui suit de près le texte d'Hélène Cixous, se développe d'un chapitre à l'autre en entrant de plus en plus dans la complexité des questions soulevées par le texte lui-même. Elle tient compte du renouvellement critique et philosophique des années 70 en France et ailleurs, dont la fiction de Cixous intègre les questionnements mais pour les déplacer et les transformer. Elle montre également l'enracinement d'une oeuvre dans le vécu et dans l'Histoire. Quant à l'impossible portrait du soleil que la fiction d'Hélène Cixous essaie de tracer: il se manifeste à travers l'évocation de la figure du père, que l'on découvre partout présente, liée à la mort et à l'expérience de la séparation, et dans l'autoportrait d'un sujet féminin, en train de se chercher à travers des histoires aussi bien fictionnelles que textuelles.

    Dazzling, beautiful, powerful, mysterious - the Sun has fascinated people throughout history. This book charts our changing understanding of the Sun through a rich collection of scientific imagery; from the first sketch of a sunspot by a twelfth-century monk, to awe-inspiring close-ups of a turbulent star taken by orbiting spacecraft. Each image tells a story of evolving scientific understanding and techniques, as well as the personal dedication of the theologians, artists and astronomers who made them.00Exhibition: Science Museum, London, UK (06.10.2018-06.05.2019)

    With this analysis of Sol images, Steven E. Hijmans paints a new picture of the solar cult in ancient Rome. The paucity of literary evidence led Hijmans to prioritize visual sources, and he opens this study with a thorough discussion of the theoretical and methodological issues involved. Emphasizing the danger of facile equivalencies between visual and verbal meanings, his primary focus is Roman praxis, manifest in, for instance, the strict patterning of Sol imagery. These patterns encode core concepts that Sol imagery evoked when deployed, and in those concepts we recognize the bedrock of Rome’s understandings of the sun and his cult. Case studies illustrate these concepts in action and the final chapter analyzes the historical context in which previous, now discredited views on Sol could arise. This is volume II of a two-volume set

    "How has humanity sought to harness the power of the Sun, and what roles have literature, art and other cultural forms played in imagining, mythologizing and reflecting the possibilities of solar energy? What stories have been told about solar technologies, and how have these narratives shaped developments in science and culture? What can solar power's history tell us about its future, within a world adapting to climate crisis? Identifying the history of capturing solar radiance as a focal point between science and the imagination, Imagining Solar Energy argues that the literary, artistic and mythical resonances of solar power - from the Renaissance to the present day - have not only been inspired by, but have also cultivated and sustained its scientific and technological development. Ranging from Archimedes to Isaac Asimov, John Dee to Humphry Davy, Aphra Behn to J. G. Ballard, the book argues that solar energy translates into many different kinds of power (physical, political, intellectual and cultural), and establishes for the first time the importance of solar energy to many literary and scientific endeavours."-- List of Illustrations -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction: Bringing the Sun into Focus -- 1.

    "With this analysis of Sol images, Steven E. Hijmans paints a new picture of the solar cult in ancient Rome. The paucity of literary evidence led Hijmans to prioritize visual sources, and he opens this study with a thorough discussion of the theoretical and methodological issues involved. Emphasizing the danger of facile equivalencies between visual and verbal meanings, his primary focus is Roman praxis, manifest in, for instance, the strict patterning of Sol imagery. These patterns encode core concepts that Sol imagery evoked when deployed, and in those concepts we recognize the bedrock of Rome's understandings of the sun and his cult. Case studies illustrate these concepts in action and the final chapter analyzes the historical context in which previous, now discredited views on Sol could arise"--

    Auteur célèbre d'une oeuvre multiforme et singulière, Hélène Cixous est surtout connue pour son théâtre et ses écrits sur la poétique de la différence sexuelle. Cette étude traite pour la première fois d'une seule des fictions d'Hélène Cixous, Portrait du soleil (1973). Elle tente d'expliciter le fonctionnement narratif et poétique et de relever les thèmes et motifs essentiels de cette oeuvre en les mettant à l'épreuve de la métaphore solaire. Constatant une solarité généralisée, elle propose une ouverture sur l'ensemble de l'oeuvre d'Hélène Cixous, en particulier son livre le plus récent, O R, les lettres de mon père (1997), et touche à la profonde motivation d'une écriture. Cette analyse, qui suit de près le texte d'Hélène Cixous, se développe d'un chapitre à l'autre en entrant de plus en plus dans la complexité des questions soulevées par le texte lui-même. Elle tient compte du renouvellement critique et philosophique des années 70 en France et ailleurs, dont la fiction de Cixous intègre les questionnements mais pour les déplacer et les transformer. Elle montre également l'enracinement d'une oeuvre dans le vécu et dans l'Histoire. Quant à l'impossible portrait du soleil que la fiction d'Hélène Cixous essaie de tracer: il se manifeste à travers l'évocation de la figure du père, que l'on découvre partout présente, liée à la mort et à l'expérience de la séparation, et dans l'autoportrait d'un sujet féminin, en train de se chercher à travers des histoires aussi bien fictionnelles que textuelles
