Political Ritual and Practice in Capetian France. Studies in Honour of Elizabeth A. R. Brown
, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 457 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:27 b/w, 9 col., 2 tables b/w., 3 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503593029.
Summary In this volume, thirteen of the world's leading scholars of medieval France explore some of the most important ideas, events, personalities, and artistic creations of the Capetian world (987-1328). From some of the earliest medieval attempts to make narrative treatments of French history, through the invention of the schools, the creation of Gothic architecture, the practices of chivalry, the practice of statecraft, and the promulgation of law codes, the volume offers a panoramic view of the kingdom and the era that has come to define the medieval world in both the scholarly and popular imaginations. The scholars brought together in this volume share as well a common sense of gratitude and an intellectual debt to Elizabeth A. R. Brown, whose own rigour and brilliance has inspired their work and shaped their sense of the past. Political Ritual and Practice in Capetian France is both a tribute to a scholar of real accomplishment and a collection of original scholarship raised upon on the foundations that Elizabeth A. R. Brown herself set down. TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Illustrations, List of Contributors Introduction Jay Rubenstein and M.

TEMPLES OF BOOKS Magnificent Librairies Around the World
, Gestalten Verlag, 2022 HB, 260 x 209 mm, 288 p, throughout illustrations color.ENG edition. ISBN 9783967040241.
In 2016, the world's oldest existing library reopened in Fes, Morocco. It opened for the first time in the 9th Century. These shrines to the written word date back even further, and continue to be built today. They're a place where some of the oldest written texts are preserved and some of the newest technology connects visitors with vast amounts of knowledge. Libraries are changing, but, as places that are fundamentally free and open to all, they're also staying the same. Libraries of the World explores the most stunning examples, but it also explores how varied the idea of a library can be. It can be a grand Baroque hall with leather-bound tomes or a mid-century masterpiece, but it can just as easily be a few shelves in a repurposed phone booth.
Found in Translation: Itinerant French Epics in Medieval Scandinavia
, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, x + 256 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9780888443144.
Summary This volume contains English translations of three Old Norse?Icelandic renderings of French chansons de geste (Elis saga ok R samundu, Bevers saga, and Flovents saga), and of one Icelandic chivalric romance (B rings saga). The French epics translated into Old Norse-Icelandic were composed under the influence of courtly romance and were anonymous narratives subject to revision and recreation. These translations resulted in a new Icelandic genre, the riddarasaga or chivalric saga, of which B rings saga is the first.

Les sph res, les astres et les th ologiens. L'influence c leste entre science et foi dans les commentaires des Sentences (v. 1220 - v. 1340)
, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 2 vols, xxvi + 1306 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language: French. *new ISBN 9782503590868.
Summary Pour la totalit des savants m di vaux, les sph res et astres causent de multiples ph nom nes terrestres, des v nements m t orologiques jusqu'aux changements dans le corps humain. Mais qu'en disent les th ologiens ? Ce livre propose la premi re reconstitution de la th orie de l'influence c leste partir d'une analyse exhaustive du corpus des commentaires des Sentences (v. 1220-v. 1340). Non seulement ces auteurs adh rent la doctrine de la causalit c leste, mais aussi ils pr nent une approche originale. D'une part, ils traitent de l'influence ordinaire , celle des corps sup rieurs connus des astronomes : son tendue, ses m canismes, ses limites. D'autre part, ils d peignent une influence hors normes , celle des sph res, des plan tes et des toiles dont l'existence est postul e par la foi chr tienne : le ciel empyr e, demeure des bienheureux, ou les corps c lestes m tamorphos s par l'Apocalypse. Dot s, premi re vue, de propri t s contraires l'ordre naturel, ces cieux sont n anmoins d crits avec la philosophie naturelle aristot licienne. La th ologie s'adapte donc la science, mais en renouvelant cette derni re : en englobant le cas des cieux atypiques , la th orie de l'influence c leste en ressort profond ment modifi e. Il s'agit d'une cl pour comprendre l'innovation du savoir scientifique m di val et, peut- tre, pour penser les volutions scientifiques ult rieures. Ce livre est la version retravaill e d'une th se de doctorat distingu e par deux prix : le prix Daniel et Michel Dez s (d cern par le Comit fran ais des sciences historiques sous l' gide de la Fondation de France) et le prix de la Soci t fran aise d'histoire des sciences et des techniques (SFHST). TABLE OF CONTENTS This book is the first exhaustive study of one of the fundamental theory for medieval science: the theory of celestial influence. The analysis of the Sentences commentaries reveals different conceptions of celestial causality and shows the interactions between secular and Christian cosmologies. L'auteur a re u la M daille Jeanbernat Barth lemy de Ferrari Doria de l'Acad mie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres pour cet ouvrage.

F r seine wohlgeformten, lasziven nackten Frauen ber hmt, war Peter Paul Rubens erstes Anliegen die Darstellung der Sinnenfreuden in all ihren Formen. Ein Barockmaler, der in seinem gesamten k nstlerischen Schaffen die Freuden und Wunder des K rperlichen feierte, die strikten sozialen Vorschriften zugunsten einer emotionalen und sinnlichen Portr tierung der Nacktheit aufgebend, um die Sch nheit des menschlichen K rpers zu zelebrieren, die f r den K nstler ebenso nat rlich war wie die Landschaften seiner Jugend. In einem ppig illustrierten Bildband entdecken Maria Varshavskaya und Xenia Egorova diesen fl mischen K nstler und setzen einen einzigartigen Fokus auf sein Werk.

French Renaissance Music and Beyond. Studies in Memory of Frank Dobbins
, Brepols, 2019 Paperback, 730 pages, Size:190 x 290 mm, Illustrations:227 b/w, 37 tables b/w., Languages: English, French, Italian. ISBN 9782503579603.
Summary This volume presents 34 studies (750p) in English, French, and Italian, assembled as a tribute by friends and former students from around the world to the late Frank Dobbins (1943-2012), distinguished scholar of the French chanson in early modern Europe. The book is built around studies of music in the Renaissance and Baroque periods (which form the core of the book), together with contributions about music composed between the second half of the eighteenth century and the twentieth centuries; these reflect both the wide-ranging variety of Frank's interests, and the range of his friendships. Secular, sacred, vocal, and instrumental music are all treated, while individual essays focus upon codicology, music printing and editing, music analysis, music theory, text-setting, biography, music and literature, music and theology, and both the reception and sociology of music. They include major discoveries about the diffusion of Jacques Moderne's choirbooks, Josquin's music, and musical and archival sources, while a number cast new light on different repertories.

Theatres of Belief: Music and Conversion in the Early Modern City
, Brepols, 2022 Paperback, 312 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:11 b/w, 12 col., 10 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503598871.
Summary These eleven essays, all centrally concerned with the intimate relationship between sound, religion, and society in the early modern world, present a sequence of test cases located in a wide variety of urban environments in Europe and the Americas. Written by an international cast of acclaimed historians and musicologists, they explore in depth the interrelated notions of conversion and confessionalisation in the shared belief that the early modern city was neither socially static nor religiously uniform. With its examples drawn from the Holy Roman Empire and the Southern Netherlands, the pluri-religious Mediterranean, and the colonial Americas both North and South, this book takes discussion of the urban soundscape, so often discussed in purely traditional terms of European institutional histories, to a new level of engagement with the concept of a totally immersive acoustic environment as conceptualised by R. Murray Schafer. From the Protestants of Douai, a bastion of the Catholic Reformation, to the bi-confessional city of Augsburg and seventeenth-century Farmington in Connecticut, where the indigenous Indian population fashioned a separate Christian entity, the intertwined religious, musical, and emotional lives of specifically grounded communities of early modern men and women are here vividly brought to life.
