Guides illustrés Michelin des champs de bataille. 1914 - 1918. Du 17 au 31 octobre 1914, le long de l'Yser se sont opposées les unités allemandes qui voulaient franchir le fleuve en direction de Dunkerque aux troupes belges et françaises qui essayaient de les y arrêter. Une vaste inondation déclenchée fin octobre a réussi à stopper définitivement la progression des assaillants. En Anglais. Le principe de ces guides est de proposer, après un rappel historique des faits et une présentation générale de la bataille, en plusieurs journées, des circuits ˮtouristiquesˮ pour découvrir les lieux mêmes de la bataille. Réalisés aux lendemains de la guerre , en 1919 et en 1920, ils proposent, en vis à vis, des photographies de monuments et paysages avant et après la bataille. Ces guides conservent encore aujourd'hui une grande valeur historique et sentimentale.

Somptueux livre dheures à lusage dUtrecht produit à Bruges vers 1470-1480, manuscrit illustré de 36 peintures polychromes dont 14 à pleine page et 22 miniatures et orné de frises dans les marges et de nombreuses lettrines, miniatures identifiées de la main de lartiste « "le Maître du livre de la chasse de Philippe de Clèves". Livre de liturgique destiné aux fidèles catholiques laïcs, le livre d'heures permettait de suivre la liturgie des Heures. Il se distingue du bréviaire ou psautier qui était réservé aux clercs. Fruit dun long développement initié au XIVe siècle pour rendre la liturgie accessible aux laïcs, sa production brille de mille feux au XVe siècle. Les artistes rivalisent dinvention pour orner de leur main ces précieux volumes de dévotion privée. Les frères de Limbourg et Les Très Riches Heures du duc de Berry, Simon Bening et le Livre dheures de Hennessy, Jean Fouquet et les Heures dÉtienne Chevalier, mais aussi une myriade de maîtres encore anonymes à limage du Maître de Bedford, en marquent les grands jalons jusquà lirruption de limprimerie qui en standardise la production. En complément de ce recueil de prières liées aux heures de la journée, le livre d'heures comporte le plus souvent un calendrier pour suivre l'évolution de la liturgie tout au long de l'année, et parfois des psaumes, les évangiles et des offices particuliers. Au moyen âge, avant lavènement de limprimerie, en raison du prix très élevé des manuscrits et de leur faible diffusion, Il est souvent le seul livre possédé par les familles qui parfois y notent leur état civil : mariage, naissances, décès. Cest le cas de notre livre dheures qui porte sur le premier contre plat cette émouvante inscription à lencre brune : « Ce dernier jour de septembre 1590, nous [Nom effacé : Claude Le Paige] lieutenant des gardes de son altesse de Bar Le Duc dune part et Alix de la Taxe dautre part avons épousée en face de la sainte église Catholique au lieu de Mircourt ». Avec sous les signatures lindication « Age 36 ans » et « Agée de 17 ans » et en dessous : « il mourut le 9 mai de lan 1610. Elle mourut le 14 septembre en lan 1622 » Notre manuscrit est entièrement rédigé en latin sur 108 feuillets recto verso.

Ce livre dheure fait partie dun corpus de dix manuscrits attribués à lartiste « "le Maître du livre de la chasse de Philippe de Clèves" ("the Master of Philip of Cleves's Livre de la chasse"), actif aux Pays Bas de Des détails de plusieurs miniatures ont permis au chercheur du CNRS Anno Wijsman, auteur dun corpus sur cet artiste, de lidentifier par comparaison avec les autres manuscrits : Tête du Christ sur la miniature de la trinité, profil de David en prière Les éléments floraux des frises sont très similaires à d'autres livres d'heures de la région de Bruges produits à cette époque, notamment le graphisme et les couleurs des feuilles d'Acanthe. Liste des miniatures à pleine page : - f.10v : Crucifixion avec la Vierge et saint Jean ; à larrière-plan un paysage de bosquets. - f.14v : Pentecôte dans le Cénacle. La Vierge est entourée des apôtres dans un édifice aux arcades ouverte laissant apercevoir lenceinte dun domaine. - f.17v : Nativité et adoration des anges. La Vierge tient lenfant Jésus devant deux anges agenouillés, dans un édifice gothique à colonnes et aux fenêtres en ogive. - f.31v : Annonciation. La chambre de la Vierge est de teintes orange et vert ; Gabriel porte une longue cape rouge. - f.41v : Visitation. La Vierge et Elisabeth se rencontrent sur le seuil dune chaumière devant une imposante bâtisse lacustre à toit pointu et chien-assis, flanquée dune tour médiévale à toiture bleue, avec pont-levis à larrière. Une entrée par leau est visible derrière la Vierge. - f.47v : Nativité. Lenfant jésus dans son ovale dor est encadré par Marie, Joseph et lange au second plan, ses ailes déployées, dans une sorte de seuil entre intérieur et extérieur dun bâtiment aux fenêtres à croisées. - f.50v : Annonciation aux bergers. Devant un paysage alternant diverses saisons avec à larrière-plan un château médiéval, deux bergers au milieu de leurs moutons reçoivent les rayons du message solaire. - f.53v. : Adoration des Mages. Deux des trois rois mages sont debout, un autre agenouillé. - f.56v. Présentation au Temple. La Vierge est accompagnée de Joseph et dune servante. - f.59v. : Massacre des Innocents. Hérode est représenté debout ordonnant de son sceptre à un soldat, à droite, dabattre son épée sur un nouveau-né couché nu sur le sol ; au loin, une scène montre un soldat tuant le bébé quune femme porte dans ses bras.- f.64v : Fuite en Égypte. La Vierge avec lenfant est sur un âne, précédés par Joseph ; au loin une colonne dont la statue se brise est placée au milieu dun paysage de bosquets. - f.68v. : Assomption de la Vierge. La Vierge au ciel, agenouillée devant le Père, le Christ et lEsprit Saint, reçoit son couronnement dans un écrin flamboyant or et rouge bordé dazur. - f.73v. : Le Roi David. Agenouillé en prière au premier plan, sa harpe et sa couronne posées par terre, il reçoit les rayons divins ; à larrière-plan, un paysage darbres et de montagnes est complété sur la gauche par un château médiéval. - f.84v : Résurrection de Lazare. Jésus debout parmi plusieurs personnages sur un fond de monastère gothique. Les initiales enluminées sont particulièrement soignées ainsi que les frises composées de fleurs diverses dont des feuilles dacanthe et des coquelicots. Les 24 miniatures des saints sont dune grande finesse, avec force de détails à limage du petit diable ailé représenté sur la première, derrière St Jean. Source iconographique précieuse historiquement, les décors, premiers et arrières plans des grandes peintures sont tout aussi finement exécutées, figurant villes, châteaux, habitations et des personnages du moyen âge. Son élégante reliure dépoque renaissance est légèrement postérieure. Cependant le corps douvrage, avec ses larges marges, semble ne pas avoir été rogné et il est possible quelle ait remplacé une première reliure fragile, comme du velours. Provenance : Claude Le Paige (circa 1552-1610), marié à Alix de La Taxe en 1590 à Mircourt [Mirecourt, commune française de Loraine] (inscription sur le premier contre plat transcrite plus haut). Il était le fils de Gérard Le Paige et Isabeau Hardy. Il fut anobli à la prière de l'Electeur de Cologne, par lettres de Charles duc de Lorraine, données à Nancy le 23 novembre 1585, pour services militaires rendus. ( Porte d'azur, à deux pigeons affrontés d'argent, membrés et becqués de gueules, posés sur un montjoye d'or, & surmontés d'une croisette de même, & pour cimier un lion naissant d'argent, tenant de sa patte droite une épée d'armes emmanchée d'or). Cette famille est originaire de la ville d'Angers. Son aïeul, Eustache-Alexandre Le Paige, qui était né dans cette ville, et se disait issu d'une famille noble, revenant des guerres d'Italie où il avait servi le roi en qualité de capitaine, sous le commandement du seigneur de la Trémoille, en passant à Basincourt, duché de Bar, épousa en 1500, Isabeau de La Chaussée. Il fixa sa demeure au dit Basincourt, où il est inhumé en la paroisse dudit lieu (Nobiliaire ou armorial général de la Lorraine et du Barrois Par Ambroise Pelletier, p. 474).

Illustrated Manuscript Production and Noble and Princely Book Ownership in the Burgundian Netherlands (1400-1550), (Burgundica, xvi), Turnhout (Brepols), 2010, p.357, 580-581 » ; "Miniatures flamandes 1404-1482, Bernard Bousmanne et Thierry Delcourt, 2012". 1 vol. 12mo (186 x 135 mm) manuscript of [110] ff. of parchment written in ink on rules drawn in pale ink of: [1] f. bl.), [6] ff. handwritten marriage note in brown ink on 1st counterguard dated 1590. (calendar calligraphied in brown and red ink on 32 lines with illuminated initials), [102] ff. with calligraphy on 20 lines, textualis formata ; 14 full-page miniatures, 22 illuminated vignettes (Pericopes, Obsecro te, O intemerata and suffrages), gilt painted champie initials with interlacing three-lobed flowers in their center (on six lines), gilt champie initials (on two lines) sometimes with filigree and flowery antennae, gilded or watermarked initials in the text, frames on gilded cribbed background with blue and orange acanthus leaves and small simple vegetation in bright colors, line ends in red and blue ink with a gilded shield in the middle (litanies), rubrics, [1] f. bl.

Full calf with Renaissance interlacing with vestiges of colored wax and central medallion (XVIth c.), spine with 5 ornate nerves, boards with rich interlacing decorations in a framing of fillets with frieze of foliage and birds, trace of white, blue and red wax in the interlacing, roulette on the edges, gilt edges, spandrels and brass clasps, ; restorations to the spine (minor wear or defects of use). Sumptuous book of hours for use in Utrecht produced in Bruges around 1470-1480, manuscript illustrated with 36 polychrome paintings including 14 full-page and 22 miniatures and decorated with friezes in the margins and numerous initials, miniatures identified by the hand of the artist "the Master of Philip of Cleves's Livre de la chasse". A liturgical book intended for the lay Catholic faithful, the Book of Hours allowed them to follow the Liturgy of the Hours. It differs from the breviary or psalter which was reserved for clerics. The result of a long development initiated in the 14th century to make the liturgy accessible to the laity, its production shines with a thousand lights in the 15th century. Artists competed with each other to decorate these precious volumes of private devotion with their own hands. The Limbourg brothers and the Très Riches Heures of the Duke of Berry, Simon Bening and the Hennessy Book of Hours, Jean Fouquet and the Hours of Étienne Chevalier, as well as a myriad of still anonymous masters such as the Master of Bedford, marked the major milestones until the advent of printing, which standardized their production. In addition to this collection of prayers linked to the hours of the day, the book of hours most often includes a calendar to follow the evolution of the liturgy throughout the year, and sometimes psalms, gospels and particular offices. In the Middle Ages, before the advent of printing, because of the very high price of manuscripts and their poor distribution, it was often the only book owned by families who sometimes noted their civil status: marriage, births, deaths. This is the case of our time book which bears on the first counter plate this moving inscription in brown ink: "This last day of September 1590, we ... [Name erased: Claude Le Paige] lieutenant of the guards of his highness of Bar Le Duc on the one hand and Alix de la Taxe on the other hand have married in front of the holy Catholic church at the place of Mircourt". With under the signatures the indication "Age 36 years" and "Aged 17 years" and underneath: "he died on May 9 of the year 1610. She died on September 14 in the year 1622". Our manuscript is entirely written in Latin on 108 double-sided sheets. It begins with the 12 pages of the Calendar for the use of Rome/Utrecht: Variants: March 19: Landoaldi pbri, March 31: Valerie v., April 17: Rufi mr., May 7: Gaudencii mr.

Details of several miniatures allowed CNRS researcher Anno Wijsman, author of a corpus on this artist, to identify it by comparison with other manuscripts: Head of Christ on the miniature of the trinity, profile of David in prayer The floral elements of the friezes are very similar to other books of hours from the Bruges region produced at this time, notably the graphics and colors of the Acanthus leaves. List of full-page miniatures: - f.10v : Crucifixion with the Virgin and Saint John; in the background a landscape of groves. - f.14v : Pentecost in the Upper Room. The Virgin is surrounded by the apostles in a building with open arches, showing the enclosure of an estate. - f.17v: Nativity and adoration of the angels. The Virgin is holding the baby Jesus in front of two kneeling angels, in a gothic building with columns and ogival windows. - f.31v: Annunciation. The Virgin's room is colored orange and green; Gabriel wears a long red cloak. - f.41v: Visitation. The Virgin and Elisabeth meet on the threshold of a thatched cottage in front of an imposing lacustrian building with a pointed roof and a dormer window, flanked by a medieval tower with a blue roof and a drawbridge at the back. An entrance through the water is visible behind the Virgin. - f.47v: Nativity. The infant Jesus in his golden oval is framed by Mary, Joseph and the angel in the background, his wings spread, in a sort of threshold between the interior and exterior of a building with cross windows. - f.50v: Annunciation to the shepherds. In front of a landscape alternating between different seasons, with a medieval castle in the background, two shepherds in the midst of their sheep are receiving the rays of the solar message. - f.53v. Adoration of the Magi. Two of the three wise men are standing, another is kneeling. - f.56v. Presentation in the Temple. The Virgin is accompanied by Joseph and a servant girl. - f.59v. Massacre of the Innocents. Herod is depicted standing and ordering a soldier on the right with his sceptre to strike down his sword on a newborn child lying naked on the ground; in the distance, a scene shows a soldier killing the baby a woman is carrying in her arms. f.64v: Flight into Egypt. The Virgin with the child is on a donkey, preceded by Joseph; in the distance a column whose statue is breaking is placed in the middle of a landscape of groves. - f.68v. Assumption of the Virgin. The Virgin in heaven, kneeling before the Father, Christ and the Holy Spirit, receives her coronation in a flamboyant gold and red box bordered with azure. - f.73v. King David. Kneeling in prayer in the foreground, his harp and crown on the ground, he receives the divine rays; in the background, a landscape of trees and mountains is completed on the left by a medieval castle. - f.84v: Resurrection of Lazarus. Jesus stands among several figures against the background of a Gothic monastery. The illuminated initials are particularly well done, as are the friezes composed of various flowers including acanthus leaves and poppies. The 24 miniatures of the saints are of great finesse, with many details such as the small winged devil represented on the first one, behind St John. Historically valuable iconographic source, the backgrounds, foregrounds and backgrounds of the large paintings are equally finely executed, depicting cities, castles, homes and characters of the Middle Ages. Its elegant Renaissance binding is slightly later. However, the body of the book, with its wide margins, seems not to have been trimmed and it is possible that it replaced a first fragile binding, like velvet. Provenance : Claude Le PAIGE (circa 1552-1610), married to Alix de La Taxe in 1590 in Mircourt [Mirecourt, French commune of Loraine] (inscription on the back of the first cover transcribed above). He was the son of Gérard Le PAIGE and Isabeau HARDY. He was ennobled at the request of the Elector of Cologne, by letters from Charles Duke of Lorraine, given to Nancy on November 23, 1585, for military services rendered. (Door Azure, 2 doves affrontee Argent, membered and beaked Gules, set on a montjoye Or, & surmounted by a crosslet of the same, & for crest a newborn lion Argent, holding from its right paw a sword of arms hilted in gold). This family is from the city of Angers. His grandfather, Eustache-Alexandre Le Paige, who was born in this city, and said he came from a noble family, returning from the Italian wars where he had served the king as a captain, under the command of the lord de la Trémoille, passing through Basincourt, duchy of Bar, married in 1500, Isabeau de La Chaussée. He fixed his residence at the said Basincourt, where he is buried (Nobiliary or armorial general of Lorraine and Barrois By Ambroise Pelletier, p. 474).

Summary The XVI International Numismatic Congress, held in Warsaw, Poland, in September 2022, was a landmark event, drawing the largest number of participants in its history. With over 550 papers presented during thematic sessions and round tables, this congress showcased the latest advancements and research in the field of numismatics from leading experts and scholars in their field. A curated selection of papers from the conference have now been drawn together into peer-reviewed conference proceedings, representing a comprehensive spectrum of numismatic studies from antiquity to modern times. Each paper is meticulously illustrated with high-quality images, often of unique specimens, along with detailed diagrams, maps, and die/typological chains. Topics covered include coins and coin finds, medals, tokens, banknotes, the history of collections and collecting, and cutting-edge chemical analyses and technologies used in coin examination. This volume, the second in four thematic volumes, focuses on Roman coinage. Divided into two separate volumes, covering respectively forty-four chapters on coinage and forty on circulation, the contributions gathered here explore not only Rome and the Imperial mints, but also local phenomena from Spain to Asia Minor, including graffiti, imitations, and copies of Roman coinage.

Bohemia and Moravia are extraordinarily important in the history of biblical translation into the Slavic languages. In the mid-14th century the first complete translation of the Bible into a national Slavonic language, namely the Old Czech, appeared in Bohemia. Other works that exerted influence on translations of the Bible into Polish, Lusatian, or Ruthenian originated in the Bohemian Lands in the 14th to 16th centuries. The Old Czech biblical tradition found its successors in the 16th century producing a number of translations of the Bible or its parts into the Czech language. The present volume follows the transmission of the biblical text in the 16th century focusing on those translators who exploited incentives of the biblical humanism and, as a consequence, deviated to a various degree from the Latin Vulgate tradition. The pioneering work of the N m??? New Testament translation of 1533, closely linked to the first grammar of the Czech language issued in the same year, was followed shortly after by others and found its peak in the monumental Six-Volume Kralice Bible which originated between 1579 and 1594 and decisively influenced Modern Standard Czech. The present volume brings bio-bibliographical information about the authors of the translations, translatological analyses of the works examined, characterization of their Czech language and new findings about the sources for the translations. The breadth and depth of analysis are unprecedented in the scholarship dealing with 16th century Czech translations of the Bible. he book is divided into two parallel and mutually linked parts (I. Biographical sketches of translators and bibliography of prints, II. Linguistic analysis), each consisting of seven chapters (see below). The structure of the book, selection of prints examined and editorial note are described in an introductory part. Individual chapters describe biblical translations or their parts into Czech which were influenced by biblical humanism. The chapters are ordered chronologically according to the first edition of the translations described. The biographical information consists of information about the translation (period reports and reception, realization of the translation, copies preserved until today) and the translator (his studies, professional occupation, intellectual skills, confession and genres of his works important for the context of the work described and bibliography). The linguistic analysis aims at determining the sources of the translation, the translation strategy, the Czech of the translation and the impact of further tradition. The following works are analyzed: 1. New Testament (printed in N m??? 1533) by Bene? Opt t and Petr Gzel. The first Czech biblical translation to deviate intentionally from the Vulgate, translated from Erasmus? Latin New Testament version. The translators were non-conformist Utraquists residing in Moravia. The translation is unique as the translators created a lot of neologisms while trying to express the etymology of some religious terms. The translation was made use of in Jan Blahoslav?s works including his New Testament of 1564 and 1568. 2. The second Severin Bible of 1537 printed in Prague. It is a revised text of the first edition of 1529 and a very important text for further development of the Czech biblical translation. In both the Old and the New Testaments it deviates from the Vulgate to a certain even though limited degree. This Bible became the textual model for Melantrich?s editions of the Bible. 3. Paraphrase on the Gospel of St Matthew (Leitmeritz 1542) and translation of the Old Testament by Jan Vartovsk of Varta. The paraphrase is a translation of Erasmus? paraphrase of the Gospel according to Matthew. Vartovsk , a trilingual utraquist scholar and a Prague citizen, was also an author of an unpreserved translation of the Old Testament from original texts. 4. Netolick and Melantrich Bibles (1549?1577). The translation or modification of older versions was partially prepared by Sixt of Ottersdorf, a Reformation humanist and a well-known historian who prepared the translation of the Third Book of Maccabees (for the first time in a Czech version issued in the Netolick Bible of 1549) and also took part in modification of the New Testament. The Melantrich Bibles represent the official and most widespread Czech translation of the second half of the 16th century. 5. ?alt ? svat ho Davida, translated by Mat?j ?ervenka and released in 1562 possibly in Prost?jov. It is the first translation of the Unity of Brethren to include numerous non-Vulgate readings even though it was translated from a Latin version. The translation was fiercely criticized in Jan Blahoslav?s grammar but in some readings it did influence the translation of Psalms in the Kralice Bible. 6. Two New Testament translations (printed in Ivan?ice in 1564 and 1568, respectively) by Jan Blahoslav, a bishop of the Unity of the Brethren, strongly influenced by Melanchthonian Reformation humanism. The translation was based on Greek-Latin versions of the Bezan and Erasmian tradition and quoted also the Greek text. It is a direct predecessor to the Six-Volume Kralice Bible. It originated as a counterpart to the N m??? New Testament of 1533 and translations following the Vulgate. During the translation, Jan Blahoslav prepared a grammar of Czech intended also as a manual for future translation of the Old Testament. In the grammar various biblical sources and humanistic translations are mentioned which help us reconstruct the sources for the translation. 7. The Six-Volume Kralice Bible (1579?1594) and its reeditions before 1613. This Bible is the largest Czech humanistic translation and the first complete biblical translation into Czech to have been translated from the original languages (Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek). It was prepared by a group of scholars and priests of the Unity of the Brethren. The first edition was printed in six volumes in which the biblical translation was supplemented by extensive philological and theological commentaries. These should compensate for exegetical works. The translation reflects influences of Reformation confessional culture and in the following centuries it decisively influenced the Standard Czech. The Kralice Bible and Blahoslav?s New Testament are therefore treated in the prepared publication most extensively. New findings enable to give a more accurate account of the whole process of translation and its cultural context.
