‎Representations of Saint Anne and the Virgin Mary from the Middle Ages to the Early Modern Period. Exploring Iconographic Flexibility and Permeability‎

‎, Brepols, 2025 Paperback, 189 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:31 b/w, 39 col., 1 maps b/w, Language: English. *new ISBN 9782503608853.‎

‎Summary Between the thirteenth and the sixteenth centuries, the cult of the Virgin Mary underwent significant changes, a shift clearly revealed by an increase in artistic representations of Mary, as well as a flourishing devotional literature in her honour, written in both Latin and the vernacular. One aspect of this change was a broader attention to Mary's genealogical line, and in particular to her relationship with St Anne. The result was not only a renewed focus on the vita Annae, but also a significant overlap in how these two women were represented, juxtaposed, and perceived. This volume traces the often significant iconographic flexibility in terms of both how the Virgin Mary and Saint Anne were presented and perceived, and what can be termed a permeability between visual representations of the two saints. Focusing on the multiple readings, layers of meaning, and the visual interplay between the vita Mariae and the vita Annae, the chapters gathered here explore the overlap and influence between different iconographic motifs, and how these were used to advance political, religious, and social ideologies at the time of their creation, as well as exploring representations across a range of different media, from sculptures and frescoes to panel paintings, and manuscript illuminations.

‎Summary La caduta di San Giovanni d'Acri nel 1291, che segna la fine degli stati crociati d'Oltremare, rappresenta un punto di svolta nella storia medievale, già percepito come tale dai contemporanei. Sulla scia immediata dell'evento, due scritti narrano e commentano la battaglia: l'anonima Excidii Aconis gestorum collectio (composta probabilmente nel Nord della Francia) e l'Ystoria de desolatione et conculcatione ciuitatis Acconensis et tocius Terre Sancte di Taddeo di Napoli, venata di influssi gioachimiti. Entrambi ripercorrono con impressionante vividità le vicende che hanno portato allo scontro e soprattutto la disperata resistenza della città, mettendo in scena una molteplicità di personaggi nelle loro dinamiche di collaborazione e dissenso: i maestri degli Ordini Militari, i governanti e il patriarca, la folla dei combattenti e delle vittime inermi; dall'altra parte, i due sultani che si succedono nel corso degli eventi con il loro popolo di ?infedeli?, sinistri eppure valorosi. Lo stile adottato dall'Anonimo e da Taddeo è improntato a un preziosismo al limite talvolta della comprensibilità, che rende ardua la lettura nell'originale latino. La traduzione italiana mette a disposizione in modo più facilmente accessibile due fonti fondamentali per la storia delle crociate e della percezione di esse nella cultura del tempo. La versione latina originale dei testi qui tradotti è pubblicata nella collana Corpus Christianorum, Continuatio Mediaeualis con il titolo Excidii Aconis gestorum collectio; Ystoria de desolatione et conculcatione ciuitatis Acconensis et tocius Terre Sancte (CC CM, 202), a cura di R.B.C. Huygens (2004). I rimandi alle pagine corrispondenti dell'edizione sono forniti a margine di questa traduzione.

‎Gaspar van Weerbeke. New Perspectives on his Life and Music‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Paperback, 332 pages, Size:190 x 290 mm, Illustrations:6 b/w, 14 col., 18 tables b/w., 39 music examples, Language: English. ISBN 9782503584546.‎

‎Summary In memoriam Gerhard Croll (1927-2019) Gaspar van Weerbeke was one of the most successful Franco-Flemish musicians of the second half of the fifteenth century, holding prestigious positions in the Sforza court in Milan, the Burgundian court chapel, and the papal chapel in Rome. His compositions were widely transmitted in manuscript and print sources throughout Europe, and he was one of the best represented composers in the early Italian music prints of Ottaviano Petrucci. Despite the high esteem of his contemporaries, Gaspar has up to now played only a peripheral role in Renaissance music historiography. This book is the first collection of research articles dedicated exclusively to the life and works of Gaspar. While the basic facts of Gaspar's life have long been known, the book fleshes out the details, presenting a more differentiated and complex picture of his biography. Analysis of a wide range of Gaspar's compositional output leads to new interpretations of his approach to different genres: masses, motets, and motet cycles. His relatively small quantity of songs is revisited in light of the confusion-both then and now-over the meaning and validity of their attributions. This book seeks to promote further research on this composer and place him in his appropriate place in music history. TABLE OF CONTENTS Andrea Lindmayr-Brandl & Paul Kolb, Introduction Part I.

‎Tractatus contra Graecos‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, xcv + 248 pages, Size:155 x 245 mm, Illustrations:2 col., Language: Latin. ISBN 9782503588742.‎

‎Summary Das 13. Jahrhundert stellt eine zentrale Epoche für die Geschichte der Beziehungen Ost- und Westkirche dar. Die Eroberung Konstantinopels durch die Kreuzfahrer im Jahr 1204 und die daran anschließende Etablierung eines sogenannten Lateinischen Kaiserreichs (1204-1261) gilt heute sowohl in der Forschungslandschaft, als auch in den Erinnerungskulturen der Kirchen als signifikantes Ereignis auf der Bruchlinie zwischen dem lateinischen Westen und dem griechischen Osten. Den gerade erst neu gegründeten Mendikantenorden kam vor dem Hintergrund ihres missionarischen Ordensauftrags und wesentlich unterstützt durch ihre flächendeckenden Ordensstrukturen eine gewichtige Rolle innerhalb der literarisch-theologischen Kontroverse mit den Byzantinern zu. Als Meilenstein dieser Kontroverse präsentiert die vorliegende kritische Edition das Dossier eines anonymen, in Konstantinopel tätigen Dominikaners unter dem Titel Tractatus contra Graecos (1252). Dieses Werk, das weite Verbreitung vor allem im Umkreis der (Unions-)Konzilien des 15. Jahrhunderts erfahren hat, stellt auf lateinischer Seite die erste systematische und griechisch-patristisch untermauerte Behandlung jener vier Konfliktpunkte dar, die in dieser Form von nun an standardmäßig auf der Agenda der ost-westlichen Debatten standen (Filioque, Azymen, Purgatorium/Eschatologie und Primat Roms). Zudem bietet der Traktat in Form eines Appendix einen reichen Schatz an klassischen und zeitgenössischen Quellen, die zum Teil singuläre Überlieferungszeugen sind. Vor diesem Hintergrund ist der Tractatus contra Graecos ein wertvolles Dokument nicht nur für die Beziehungsgeschichte zwischen östlich und westlich geprägter Theologie, sondern zudem ein Baustein zur Geschichte und Theologie des Dominikanerordens in der noch jungen Randprovinz "Graecia".‎

‎Summary Andrew of Saint Victor was one of the most prominent biblical scholars of the twelfth century. He was a regular canon of the Parisian abbey of St Victor, which in the twelfth century had developed into a prestigious center of spiritual learning, closely connected to the nascent university in Paris. Because of his frequent use of Jewish exegetical materials, Andrew's commentaries are a rich source for the history both of biblical hermeneutics and of inter-religious dialogue during the Middle Ages. His Isaiah commentary caused outrage among medieval Christian scholars because it eschewed traditional christological interpretations, and instead offered a reading "secundum Hebraeos." Scholars have seen Andrew of St Victor as standing at the cradle of a scholarly interest in the Biblical text, which influenced scholars such as the fourteenth-century Franciscan Nicholas of Lyra, and, in the long run, reformers such as John Wycliff, Martin Luther, and John Calvin.‎

‎A new edition of Andreas H. Bitesnich's classic portrait of India, a timeless photographic masterpiece capturing the breathtaking beauty and complexity of the world?s largest democracy. India is constantly on the move. It moves sideways, backwards, upwards, and forwards. It is a nation of both past and future, where time seems to pass by its own laws, and extraordinary tradition coexists with hyper modernity and ever-booming construction. For many, India is as much a state of mind as a country. Through this photographic journey of discovery, Andreas H. Bitesnich creates a fascinating book about India, revealing many facets of this intricate, populous country. In color, black-and-white, and sepia, his stunning photographs show Indian culture, food, faith, heritage, landmarks, cities, and wildlife, as well as its daily interactions and centuries-old monuments. The images do not shy away from the complexity and raw hardship of Indian life. With honesty and respect, Bitesnich documents the country?s ongoing struggles as much as its vibrancy and growth. We see India?s temples and mosques, its wild Indian elephants, its extraordinary architecture, and its deep spirituality. And we see its urban sprawl, its squalor, its street poverty, and suffering. The result is a photo book immersed in the Indian present and complexity, while steeped in the texture and gravitas of a bygone travel album.‎

‎Summary It is only in recent years that Byzantine poetry - a long-neglected aspect of Byzantine literature - has attracted the attention of philologists, literary and cultural historians. This holds true especially for the poetry written in middle and late Byzantium.Though many collections of poems are available in modern critical editions, a considerable amount of texts still remains completely unedited or accessible only in outdated and unreliable editions. Moreover, many works of this period have never been studied thoroughly with regard to their cultural impact on society. Issues of authorship and patronage, function, literary motives, generic qualities, and manuscripts still await further study. This volume aims to take a step to fill this gap. Although it includes studies on poetry from the early tenth to the fifteenth centuries, the main focus is placed on the Komnenian and Palaeologan times. It presents editions of completely unknown texts, such as a twelfth-century cycle of epigrams on John Klimax. It includes studies on various types of poetry, including didactic, occasional, and even poetry written for liturgical purposes. By analysing these works and placing them within their literary and socio-cultural context, we can draw conclusions about the cultural tastes of the Byzantines and acquire a more nuanced picture of middle and late Byzantine poetry.

‎Heidi Kippenberg studied ceramics under Walter Popp, the legendary teacher at the Kassel Art Academy whose avant-garde work opened up new dimensions of form and expression for ceramic vessels. She internalized the aesthetic of Popp?s vessels and simultaneously gave them her own distinctive touch. Strongly twisted, thick-walled, sometimes mounted stoneware vessels, further enlivened by thick monochrome glazes and augmented with sign-like contrasting glazed accents, characterize her oeuvre. Later she was inspired by East Asian ceramics and began to build her vessels, assembling them from slabs, giving their surfaces a lively structure, and transforming them into decorative landscapes. An oeuvre spanning more than half a century can be admired!‎

‎Andreas Vesalius: Anatomy and the World of Books‎

‎London, Reaktion Books, 2024 Hardcover, 224 pages, 22 x 14.5 cm, Illustrated. *Fine. ISBN 9781789148527.‎

‎A revisionist biography of Andreas Vesalius - the father of modern anatomy - as deeply shaped by Renaissance culture. In 1543 the young and ambitious physician Andreas Vesalius published one of the most famous books in the history of medicine, On the Fabric of the Human Body. While we often think of dissection as destroying the body, Vesalius believed that it helped him understand how to construct the human body. In this book, Sachiko Kusukawa shows how Vesalius's publication emerged from the interplay of Renaissance art, printing technology, and classical tradition. She challenges the conventional view of Vesalius as a proto-modern, anti-authoritarian father of anatomy through a more nuanced account of how Vesalius exploited cultural and technological developments to create a big and beautiful book that propelled him into imperial circles and secured his enduring fame.'Kusukawa's vivid reconstruction of the making of Vesalius's Fabrica takes us deep inside the world of anatomical demonstrations, hospital postmortems, criminal executions, university lecture halls, humanist libraries and artistic and printing workshops. She explains how Vesalius thought about books, images and bodies, and his skill at instructing Renaissance readers how to look, touch, dissect and model the human body in order to learn from it. There is no better introduction to Vesalius.' - Paula Findlen, Stanford University'In this brilliant digestion of her earlier work, Kusukawa not only reconstructs 'the making' of Andreas Vesalius's masterpiece, Fabrica (and the book's reception and afterlife), but the making of the man himself. The 'founder' of modern anatomy we see in full context, reliant on his peers, his readers and his students in the production of his masterpiece. He is also shown to be a canny negotiator with artists and printers in the making of the book's famous images. Ultimately Andreas Vesalius: Anatomy and the World of Books compels engagement with the construction of the 'truthfulness' of all scientific images, then and now. This is historical anatomy and provocation at its arresting best.' - Claudia Stein, University of Warwick‎
