Dans l'ombre des plus c l bres compositeurs de la fin du XVe si cle gravitaient nombre de ma tres mineurs. Parmi eux, Jean Fresneau (1468-1505/13) que l'on suppose l'auteur de cinq chansons et d'une messe, est un "chantre" qui exercera ses talents dans deux des plus prestigieuses chapelles de l' poque: la chapelle royale de France et la chapelle ducale de Milan. Fresneau semble tre un compositeur assez conservateur, car toutes ses chansons sont trois voix dans un style g n ralement qualifi de "chansons bourguignonnes".

Crossroads of Cultures. Multilingual Diversity in Dutch Literature from Late Medieval Flanders
, Brepols, 2026 Hardback, 338 pages, 156 x 234 mm, illustrations: 13 col., 4 tables b/w., English, Middle Dutch, Old French. NEW. ISBN 9782503616186.
Located in the geographical region where the Low Countries, the Holy German Empire, and the French Kingdom converge, the medieval County of Flanders was a crossroad at which many cultures from across Europe met. As these cultures mixed, so too did their languages, leading to Flanders becoming profoundly multilingual, both on a societal and individual level. This volume examines the literary interaction between the most prominent languages of Flanders, namely Dutch, French, and Latin, in a variety of texts and manuscripts from an array of genres, analyzing multilingualism as a cultural phenomenon, a sociolinguistic feature, and a literary device. Combining literary studies with insights from sociolinguistics, material philology, and translation studies, this work illustrates the rich multilingual diversity of medieval Flemish literature during the late Middle Ages and promotes the study of Dutch literature in a translingual, multicultural context.

Two Irish Apocalypses The Vision of Adomn n and The Two Sorrows of the Kingdom of Heaven
, Brepols, 2026 Paperback, xii + 218 p., 120 x 190 mm, Illustrations:2 b/w, Language(s):English. *New . ISBN 9782503622187.
This volume presents translations of two medieval Irish eschatological texts, with extended commentary. "The Vision of Adomn n" is the most elaborate and ambitious account of the afterlife in the Irish language: using the framework of "The Vision of Saint Paul", the author constructs a rich and vivid picture of the next world, drawing upon many sources including a remarkable account of the seven heavens as regions of testing and punishment. "The Two Sorrows of the Kingdom of Heaven" is a considerably briefer work, describing the Last Judgement and the reign of Antichrist with reference to the eschatological martyrs Enoch and Elijah.
Grace and Grandeur: The Portraiture of Paolo Veronese
, , 2008 Cloth binding under dustjacket, 268 pages, 220 x 280 mm, illustrations: 135 b/w, 52 col. English text. *fine copy. ISBN 9781905375233.
Of the triumvirate of sixteenth-century Venetian painters, Titian, Veronese, and Tintoretto, Paolo [Caliari] Veronese (1528-1588) best conveyed Venice?s civic splendor. His masterpieces in the Doge?s Palace conferred on the Republic a magnificence and authority that was rapidly dwindling by the end of the Renaissance. But on a private level, he also reshaped the fashions of the Serenissima through a steady stream of portrait commissions. Many members of Venice?s most elite families sat for Veronese, as did notable artists and authors, including Titian and Sir Phillip Sidney. Once regarded as Venice?s best portraitist, his talents in this genre unfortunately remain largely unknown to modern audiences. This book offers the first comprehensive study of the approximately forty portraits that survive. Shedding new light on early works, such as the pendants of the Da Porto and the frescos of the Barbaro in the Palladian villa at Maser, Professor Garton also examines Paolo?s images of women within the larger polemics surrounding the anonymous beauties of Giorgione, Palma il Vecchio, and Titian. The author analyzes Veronese?s innovations in martial portraiture, melancholic portrayals of artists and nobility, and evocations of the antique. Relevant issues of social history, class insecurity, and poetic convention are all brought to bear in deciphering the meanings of these images and what they reveal about the painter and his clientele. This layered study of Venice?s golden age of painting ends appropriately with a glance at the ?moderns? who profited most from the study of Veronese?s portraits: Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux, Henri Fantin-Latour, Mary Cassatt, and Henri Matisse. A complete catalogue of Veronese?s portraits follows the chapters. John Garton, Ph.D., is assistant professor of liberal arts at the Cleveland Institute of Art.
Portraits After Existing Prototypes Corpus Rubenianum Ludwig Burchard part XIX.- 4
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2016 Hardcover with dusjacket.340 p., 130 b/w ill. + 100 colour ill., 180 x 265 mm, Languages: English. ISBN 9781909400580.
Rubens was mesmerised by faces. He studied physiognomy, the pseudo-science that began making headway in the sixteenth century, which postulated that a person?s character could be read from their facial features. He made geometrical analyses of the faces of ancient emperors and heroes. He invested a great deal of time in detailed anatomical studies, sometimes based on nature, and equally often on antique busts and coins. At times it seems as though the master wanted to know and understand every nook and cranny of the human face. To this end he studied man himself and the way in which the ancients dealt with nature. His best portrait copies, thus, are not strictly copies but rather studies in which art history, craftsmanship, literature and theory merge into an emulation of art and nature. They are works in which the artist was looking for what ultimately captivated him the most: man in all of his myriad facets, and the perspectives art afforded to better understand man.

Catalan Maps and Jewish Books The Intellectual Profile of Elisha ben Abraham Cresques (1325-1387)
, Brepols 2020, 2020 Hardcover, 358 pages with 122 coloured illustrations, English, 275 x 220 mm, perfect condition, . ISBN 9782503585482.
This books describes the life of Elisa ben Abraham Cresques, known to many as the author of the Catalan Atlas, and focuses on the Jewish aspects of his fascinating career, his professional profile, and his scholarship. This book presents a small chapter in the intellectual history of the Jews of Majorca. Its key figure is Elisha ben Abraham Bevenisti Cresques (1325?1387) a cartographer in the service of King Peter IV of Aragon and a scribe and illuminator of Hebrew books. Elisha Cresques? career evolves at a point in time when some of the most fascinating threads of methodological interests relevant to intellectual history meet. He emerges as a hub, so to speak, where mapmaking converged with scribal work, miniature painting with scientific knowledge, and the culture of a minority with that of the majority. How he was able to negotiate his patron?s expectations and his own cultural identity and frame them within the political, cultural, and religious discourses of his time is the subject of this book.
Correctness in Comparison Negotiating Linguistic Norms in Greek from the Imperial Roman until the Later Byzantine Period (I?XV c. AD)
, Brepols, 2026 Paperback, 320 pages, 156 x 234 mm, English text. *New. ISBN 9782503619101.
This volume examines the relationship between linguistic usage and the norms that define it within the Greek language. Covering the Imperial Age, Byzantine period, and Renaissance, it draws on a wide range of sources?including literary texts, documentary material, and grammatical treatises?to trace the evolving concept of linguistic correctness. Bringing together specialists in Post-classical and Medieval Greek, the volume investigates how linguistic norms and standards were shaped by their sociocultural and historical contexts. In addition to its exploration of theoretical frameworks for linguistic correctness, the volume addresses key themes such as the interaction between high and low registers in official documents and the contributions of Byzantine grammarians to the development of syntactic and stylistic conventions. Incorporating approaches from (historical) sociolinguistics, the collection underscores the dynamic nature of Greek as it balanced tradition and innovation. Scholars of Greek language and linguistics will find in this volume a valuable resource for understanding the interplay of language, culture, and history across centuries.
