‎Philon fut un penseur longtemps neglige, voire rejete par les principales traditions a l'intersection desquelles il a deploye une pensee originale et feconde. Le judaisme, tout d'abord, qui ignora ou fit mine d'ignorer un philosophe qui avait seduit les chretiens; le christianisme, dont la dette a son egard est considerable, mais fut rarement reconnue de maniere explicite. Quant aux admirateurs de l'hellenisme, ils n'ont vu trop longtemps dans ses ecrits qu'une pensee abatardie et depourvue d'interet. C'est sans doute au vingtieme siecle que l'Alexandrin - appellation qui s'est imposee, se substituant a ? Philon le Juif ? - sortit de son 'purgatoire' pour susciter l'interet des chercheurs. La valorisation de la pluridisciplinarite et de la transdisciplinarite fut assurement une des causes qui favorisa la relecture de son oeuvre. Considere jusqu'au debut du vingtieme siecle comme un auteur aux marges de l'antiquite, du judaisme et du christianisme, Philon a quitte le limes de l'empire officiel des idees pour gagner le coeur scientifique, et parfois ideologique, de certaines recherches. Il demeure cependant encore trop souvent prisonnier de l'archaisme de certaines categories epistemologiques, culturelles et religieuses dans la recherche moderne, qui masquent le caractere multiple de sa pensee. Il semble donc necessaire de poursuivre les efforts entrepris au cours du siecle passe afin d'envisager le travail de Philon dans toute sa complexite. Ni seulement grec, ni seulement juif, Philon appartenait a un monde eminemment multiculturel et, a ce titre, il est, plus que beaucoup d'autres, infiniment proche de la realite que nous vivons. C'est pourquoi notre colloque international s'assigne pour tache l'etude de l'oeuvre de Philon dans la totalite de ses aspects, ce qu'exprime le theme que nous avons choisi: ? Philon d'Alexandrie: un penseur a l'intersection des cultures greco-romaine, orientale, juive, et chretienne ? . Il apparait, en effet, aujourd'hui, apres un siecle de recherche, que seule une approche plurielle de son oeuvre permet de cerner de facon adequate une pensee qui puisa aux sources des differentes traditions de l'Antiquite pour parfois les nourrir a son tour.

‎Painting Architecture in Early Renaissance Italy. Innovation and Persuasion at the Intersection of Artistic and Architectural Practice‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2024 Hardback, approx. 220 pages, Size:220 x 280 mm, Illustrations:3 b/w, 138 col., Language: English. ISBN 9781915487032.‎

‎Summary Why did artists include prominent architectural settings in their narrative paintings? Why did they labour over specific, highly innovative structural solutions? Why did they endeavour to design original ornamental motifs which brought together sculptural, painterly and architectural approaches, as well as showcasing their understanding of materiality? Painting Architecture in Early Renaissance Italy addresses these questions in order to shed light on the early exchanges between artistic and architectural practice in Italy, arguing that architecture in painting provided a unique platform for architectural experimentation. Rather than interpreting architectural settings as purely spatial devices and as lesser counterparts of their built cognates, this book emphasises their intrinsic value as designs as well as communicative tools, contending that the architectural imagination of artists was instrumental in redefining the status of architectural forms as a kind of cultural currency. Exploring the nexus between innovation and persuasion, Livia Lupi highlights an early form of little-discussed paragone between painting and architecture which relied on a shared understanding of architectural invention as a symbol of prestige. This approach offers a precious insight into how architectural forms were perceived and deployed, be they two or three-dimensional, at the same time clarifying the intersection of architecture and the figural arts in the work of later, influential figures like Giuliano da Sangallo, Raphael, Michelangelo and Baldassarre Peruzzi, whose work would not have been possible without the architectural experimentation of early fifteenth-century artists.
