Roman Identity. Between Ideal and Performance
, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 402 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:10 col., 2 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503599229.
Summary Recent years have seen a significant increase in migration and displacement. Due to economic, political, and climatic pressures, large numbers of individuals are leaving their countries of origin and settling in new environments and societies. As a result, national identity has increasingly come to the fore in public discourse. Shaping and reshaping national agendas, debates surrounding national identity are affecting policies and influencing voting behaviours. Discourse on this issue is often centred on the idea of autochthony and nativism. Yet we do not encounter such anxieties in ancient Rome, one of the longest-lasting political orders in history. Unlike among the Greeks, the idea of autochthony did not take root among the Romans. Instead, Rome's identity tended to be fluid, accommodating the development of highly variegated and multi-ethnic groups and societies. The purpose of this volume is to understand how the Romans represented themselves and how others defined and regarded them. It aims to identify the various narratives that contributed to the construction of Roman self-representation by raising the following questions: What stories did Romans tell about themselves? How did they enact and perform their selfhood in biographical and autobiographical sources? How did Greek and Judean sources understand and define Roman identity? And, taken together, how did these narratives influence Roman self-perception? Rather than arguing for a monolithic or coherent understanding of Romanitas, this volume explores a variety of performances and manifestations of Roman identity. It focuses both on sources where the self or individual is the primary focus, alongside more general texts dealing with specific elements of Roman identity.

Roman Names in the Cyclades. Part ?I
, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 504 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:47 col., Language: English. ISBN 9789603710776.
Summary The second volume of the study on the Roman names in the Cyclades completes the contribution to the social history of a marginal zone of the Roman world. It includes prosopographic catalogues of bearers of Roman names attested on Amorgos, Anaphe, Ios, Naxos, Oliaros, Paros, Pholegandros, Thera and attestations connected generally with the Cyclades, but not with a specific island. An extensive introduction presents the historical context and a synthetic overview of the diffusion of Roman names and citizenship in the Cyclades. The book is enriched by two synthetic contributions written by specialists. One of them (El. Sverkos) focuses on the origin of certain characteristic names and the other (P. Doukellis) on the study of 'spatiality' and the sociological parameters of the diffusion of the names as a method for perceiving the complex mechanisms for the construction of personal identities. This work is also a contribution to the epigraphy of the Cyclades, as the prosopographic catalogues were based on autopsy of the published and unpublished epigraphic material, relocation of stones and research in the archive of the Inscriptiones Graecae (Berlin). This method yielded hitherto unknown prosopographic data as well as new readings and interpretations of epigraphic texts which had not been studied for over a century. As part of the documentation, 47 plates include photos of several inscriptions or their squeezes, which are published here for the first time.

Christian, Jewish, and Muslim Preaching in the Mediterranean and Europe. Identities and Interfaith Encounters
, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, ix + 337 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:9 b/w, Languages: English, French, Spanish. ISBN 9782503582719.
Summary This volume explores the sermons and activities of Christian, Jewish, and Muslim preachers who shaped ideas about religious and gendered identities and alterity throughout the Mediterranean and northern Europe. Preachers of all three traditions played a decisive role in defining the religious identities of their communities, often in response to negative images projected onto religious others. The studies cover a broad spectrum of premodern Europe and the Mediterranean and address the ways that preaching reflects transcultural contacts as well as social, intellectual, and hermeneutical encounters among diverse societies and religious communities. The essays are divided into three themes. Part One, 'Religious and Gendered Identities and Alterities,' examines how religious identity is inflected by the presence or the 'absent presence' of religious others and interrogates how gender informs religious identity, piety, and alterity. The chapters in Part Two, 'Hermeneutical Identities, Alterities, and Transcultural Relations in Christian and Jewish Preaching', offer contrasting interpretations of the impact of anti-Judaism in Christian preaching and analyse Jewish responses to Christian polemic. Part Three, 'Muslim and Christian Orators and Inter-faith Encounters,' explores these encounters from the dual perspectives of Crusade and military conflict and interreligious dialogue, disputation, and proselytization. The volume positions itself at the intellectual crossroads between comparative medieval sermons studies and transcultural Mediterranean and European studies.

Music and the Identity Process: The National Churches of Rome and their Networks in the Early Modern Period
, Brepols, 2020 Paperback, 436 pages, Size:190 x 290 mm, Illustrations:67 b/w, 75 col., 10 tables b/w., 1 maps b/w, Languages: English, German. ISBN 9782503588384.
Summary Important centres of charity, hospitality and representation, the national churches of Rome were also major hubs of musical production. This collective work is the fruit of several years of largely unpublished research on the musical life of these institutions, considered for the first time as a whole. What it primarily brings to light is the common model which emerged from the interactions between the national churches, as well as between these and other Roman churches, in musical matters - eloquent example of a unifying cultural paradigm. The repertories used by these churches, the ceremonies and celebrations they orchestrated in the teatro del mondo which Rome constituted at the time, their role in the placing of musicians within the city's professional networks are just some of the themes explored in this work. The cultural exchanges between the national churches and the "nations" that they represented in the pontifical city form another important area of investigation: whether musical or devotional, connecting places of worship and private palaces or extending from one side of the Alps to the other, these exchanges reveal the permeability that characterised many national traditions. At the heart of this richly illustrated study are two fundamental lines of inquiry: the first concerns the processes of identity construction developed by communities installed in foreign lands, the second line of inquiry is cultural hybridity. In pursuing these, we aim to further understanding of the dialectics of exchange at work in Rome during the modern period. * The preparation of this publication has benefitted greatly from the collaboration of Jorge Morales.

Aesthetics of Reaction. Tradition, Faith, Identity, and the Visual Arts in France, 1900-1914
, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 376 pages, Size:215 x 280 mm, Illustrations:7 b/w, 80 col., Language(s):English, French. ISBN 9782503591575.
Summary This study focuses on anti-modernist artists, critics and political theorists in Belle Époque France hostile to secular democracy and its allegedly decadent culture of individualism. It examines their reassertion of social and artistic values which, they claimed, had been distorted and repressed by the 1789 revolution. Exploring the cultural implications of the Catholic revival, the impact of the royalist movement Action française and nationalist calls for a 'Renaissance française', it challenges previous assessments of nationalists' artistic agenda and recasts ways of thinking about classicism and the notion of a 'return to order' in pre- and post-war French cultural discourse. The book offers the first comprehensive overview of nationalism's impact on pre-war French art, which it complements with synthetic studies of three figures affected by these political and artistic debates: the painters Maurice Denis (Catholic revival) and Emile Bernard ('Renaissance francaise), as well as the critic Joachim Gasquet (Action française). In such a way, the book goes beyond previous accounts to highlight contradictions and complexities in pre-war artistic discourse that enrich our understanding of the ideological stakes involved in clashes over modernity, tradition and identity in pre-war France. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction : « An Essential Part of Ourselves » : Culture, tradition and the French nation. (General overview of main themes) Part 1: Scenes & Doctrines Chapter 1. Idéologies of National Identity in the Third Republic. (An introductory study of nationalist ideologies and their impact on culture during the late 19th and early 20th centuries) Chapter 2. Contending Traditions. Approaching the Past in Republican France. (Background discussion of debates around tradition c. 1900 and their impact on discussions of the history of French art & its contemporary character) Chapter 3. Making French Art. Defining a National Culture before 1914. (Introduction to debates during the period to define a characteristically national culture, particularly from a Republican perspective) Part 2. Religion Chapter 4. Representing Spirituality. Tradition, Beauty and Faith in the Catholic Revival. (Exploration of the impact of the Catholic revival on French art, particularly in relation to the influence of renewed interest in Neo-Thomism and its aesthetic implications). Chapter 5. Catholic Tastes. Religiosity, Aesthetics and Tradition in the Art of Maurice Denis. (Explores the impact of Catholicism on Denis's career as a painter, critic and theorist, focusing on its interplay with his royalist sympathies and his understanding of art's history as an apologetic form) Part 3. Royalism Chapter 6. Action française : the Experience of Centuries. (A comprehensive analysis of royalist interventions in the arts in terms of art-critical writing, aesthetics, and art-historical research by figures such as Charles Maurras, Louis Dimier and Pierre du Colombier). Chapter 7. Joachim Gasquet : the Politics of Lyricism. (Revisits the career of a figure best known for his controversial 1921 publication on Cézanne. For the first time, the totality of Gasquet's artistic writing (much of it unpublished) is discussed. The emerging picture contributes to a redefinition of contemporary notions of classicism and of Cézanne's reputation as a classical artist - both themes that re-emerge as motifs elsewhere in the book). Part 4. Renaissances Chapter 8. Modernizing tradition: Towards a new French Renaissance. (For the first time, a broad spectrum of cultural commentary, united by a shared nationalist commitment to French rebirth, is brought together in ways that reframe some central debates in pre-war art criticism and bring to the fore artists generally overlooked in retrospective surveys of the period. The chapter revisits debates around the aesthetic impact of 'celtic nationalism' and argues against previous suggestions that this position aligns with progressive poiltics. The chapter also looks at Latinist modernism and its place in the avant-garde publication 'Montjoie!'). Chapitre 9. Émile Bernard : the Dogma of tradition. (Bernard was a prolific artist and theorist whose contribution to French art is typically considered only in relation to his early career around Paul Gauguin and the School of Pont-Aven in the late 1880s and early 90s. This chapter looks at Bernard's rejection of the artistic vanguard and his ostentatious championing of tradition, rooted in the High Renaissance, both in his pictorial output after 1900 and in his enormous body of published and unpublished writing. Bernard's eulogies of Tintoretto and Michelangelo in particular stand in contrast to his growing disdain for modern art, epitomized by his growing disenchantment with Cézanne. The chapter demonstrates how Bernard's artistic retrenchment forms part of a more broadly elitist disparagement of democratic republicanism.) Conclusion
Memories Lost in the Middle Ages. Collective Forgetting as an Alternative Procedure of Social Cohesion. L'oubli collectif au Moyen Âge. Un autre processus constitutif de la cohésion sociale
, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 362 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:32 b/w, 2 tables b/w., Language(s):English, French. ISBN 9782503596938.
Summary The aim of this book is to examine the social, political and cultural consequences of 'collective forgetting' in the Middle Ages. Since the seminal work of Maurice Halbwachs, historical research has focused on 'collective memory' as the basis of social cohesion. Jan Assmann has introduced the slightly different concept of 'cultural memory', which he sees as a constitutive condition of political organisations and their stabilisation. Drawing on this Assmannian concept, this book examines this other process of 'collective forgetting'. Cet ouvrage ambitionne d'examiner les conséquences sociales, politiques et culturelles de « l'oubli collectif » au Moyen Âge. Depuis les études fondatrices de Maurice Halbwachs, la recherche historique s'est intéressée à la « mémoire collective » en tant que fondement de la cohésion sociale. Jan Assmann a introduit le concept légèrement différent de « mémoire culturelle », condition constitutive selon lui des organisations politiques et de leur stabilisation. Tout en s'appuyant sur ce concept assmannien, cet ouvrage propose d'étudier cet autre processus que constitue « l'oubli collectif ». TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction. Memories Lost in the Middle Ages.

What is North? Imagining the North from Ancient Times to the Present Day
, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, 408 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:18 b/w, 11 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503585024.
Summary The British Isles, Scandinavia, Iceland, Greenland, and Eastern Canada, alongside many small islands, form a broken bridge across the northern extremities of the Atlantic Ocean. This 'North Atlantic World' is a heterogeneous but culturally intertwined area, ideally suited to the fostering of an interest in all things northern by its people. For the storytellers and writers of the past, each more northerly land was far enough away that it could seem fabulous and even otherworldly, while still being just close enough for myths and travellers' tales to accrue. This book charts attitudes to the North in the North Atlantic World from the time of the earliest extant sources until the present day. The varied papers within consider a number of key questions which have arisen repeatedly over the centuries: 'where is the North located?', 'what are its characteristics?', and 'who, or what lives there?'. They do so from many angles, considering numerous locations and an immense span of time. All are united by their engagement with the North Atlantic World's relationship with the North.

Summary The use of the past for contemporary purposes has been a feature of historical and archaeological investigation from ancient times. This 'politicization of the past' is often associated with, at best, an inadvertent detachment from an objective use of evidence, and at worst, its wilful misuse. Such use of the past is perhaps most evident in the construction of narratives of nations and ethnic groups ? particularly in relation to origins or the perceived 'golden ages' of peoples. This book seeks to assess the role played by different ideologies in the shaping of the past, from early times up until the present day, in the interpretation of the history and archaeology of Northern Europe, whether in Northern Europe itself or further afield. It also considers how those who research, interpret, and present the Northern European past should respond to such uses. The chapters drawn together here explore key questions, asking how contemporary ideologies of identity have shaped the past, what measures should be taken to discourage an inaccurate understanding of the past, and if scholars should draw on the past in order to counter racism and xenophobia, or if this can itself lead to potentially dangerous misunderstandings of history.

Historiography and Identity VI: Competing Narratives of the Past in Central and Eastern Europe, c. 1200 - c. 1600

Summary The volume discusses Central European and Eastern Central European historiographies of the High and Late Middle Ages. It deals with histories written in a time which brought about a profound differentiation of medieval societies in these regions. As new social classes achieved economic and political power, the demand for reassuring identifications grew more pressing. Narratives of the past were tailored specifically for distinct social groups, often using vernacular languages instead of the universal language of elite education, Latin. The volume pays attention to the interplay between languages and focuses on the strategies that individual works developed in order to balance the many alternative modes of identification. Filling a significant scholarly gap, the volume offers important insights into narratives of identification written in Latin and in the various vernaculars emerging as the new political languages of the period.
