‎Time We Share. Reflecties op de podiumkunsten 1 inleiding, 3 bedrijven en 2 intermezzo's‎

‎, [BE] Fonds Mercator/ Mercatorfonds , 2015 Paperback, 240x170mm, 400p, 200 colour illustrations, Dutch (NL) edition . ISBN 9789462300699.‎


‎Met bijdragen van Jerome Bel, Romeo Castellucci, Andre Lepecki, Chantal Mouffe, Gerald Siegmund & Isabelle Stengers. Met de twintigste editie van het Kunstenfestivaldesarts als startpunt benadert dit boek enkele invalshoeken die van cruciaal belang zullen zijn voor het geheugen van de podiumkunsten. The Time We Share wordt samengesteld uit belangrijke vragen die gedurende twee decennia werden opgeworpen op het Kunstenfestivaldesarts en vele andere scenes en die tot vandaag relevant zijn. Elk hoofdstuk brengt artistieke projecten van verschillende festivaledities bijeen, maakt nieuwe constellaties en licht er specifieke vraagstellingen uit. Sommige onderwerpen hadden de voorbije twee jaar een belangrijke plaats in het maatschappelijk discours, andere treden voor het eerst uit de schaduw van het dominante discours. Elke vraag wordt toegelicht door tegengestelde elementen: tekstbijdragen van kunstenaars, schetsen en foto's, beschrijvingen of handgeschreven sporen van markante projecten of momenten, nieuwe artikels van vooraanstaande denkers uit de wereld van filosofie en sociologie, enz. The Time We Share wil de band tussen de podiumkunsten en de samenleving zichtbaar maken. Het wil focussen op de manier waarop sommige kunstwerken een belangrijke rol hebben gespeeld in het maatschappelijk discours. Meer nog dan een instrument wil het een naslagwerk zijn waar het verleden zich opent naar de toekomst, een uitnodiging om na te denken over de podiumkunsten en de manier waarop die onze maatschappij binnensijpelen. The Time We Share wil over en door de podiumkunsten reflecteren over de tijd die wij delen. ‎

‎Sacred Places Devotional Practices and Space Organization in Early Medieval Monasteries (5th-10th centuries)‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller95, 2025 Paperback, 420 Pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:81 b/w, 35 col., 20 tables b/w., Language(s):English, Italian, French. *new ISBN 9782503616605.‎


‎The body or relics of a saint could attract divine protection on the community and the place where they were kept. If, in some cases, the monasteries were structures of assistance to sanctuaries of certain notoriety, starting from the 7th century, they increasingly played the role of protagonists, autonomously managing the devotional activities derived from the acquisition or translation of relics. The need to preserve the isolation of the 'clausura' and to manage, at the same time, an increasing flow of pilgrims led these monasteries to build new spaces for prayer, communion and assistance. This book includes the Proceedings of the International Conference held in Naples (Italy) on November 28-29, 2022. The Conference - organized, as part of a Marie-Curie research project, by the Fondazione San Bonaventura with the contribution of the Italian Ministry of Culture - brought together historians, archaeologists, and art historians to discuss the theme of spatial articulation of monasteries chosen as places of pilgrimage during the Early Middle Ages in Western Europe. From this interdisciplinary discussion, exciting insights have emerged on aspects of particular relevance, such as the organization of the funerary space and interaction between monks and laypeople, the elements of balance or clash between 'clausura' and hospitality and the comparison between male and female monasteries as devotional centers.

‎Amsterdam, Abraham Wolfgang, 1694. Uncut in contemp. blank boards. Title handwritten on spine. Spine a little rubbed. (22),307 pp. and (8),159 pp. Textillustrations in woodcut illustrating Cartesian physics and world system. A large copy, few marginal brownspots. Previous owners name on fly-leaf, Vilhelm Maar, Danish historian of medicine.‎


‎First Latin edition (The French original from 1690 Voyage du Monde de Descartes) of this imaginary travel to find Descartes on the moon and in the upper spheres. The work is one of the most importent anti-Cartesian polemics of the 1690's and it attacs the whole of Descartes system in a satirical way.""It aimes principally at the sharp Cartesian distinction between body and soul, related in a satirical fashion the voyage of the disembodied souls of the narrator, of Mersanne, and of another old friend of Descartes in the upper spheres. On their way to visit Descartes in the third heaven, they meet the souls of Aristotle and the disciples of descartes (clearly refelcting here the philosophical opinions of Gabriel Daniel himself). One of the articles of that treaty stipulates that the Cartesians will refer to Aristotle with more respect, whereas the Aristotelians will refrain from calling Descartes ""Enthusiast"", ""Madman"", ""Heretick"" or ""Atheist"" - all of these evidently labels commonly used by the opponents of Descartes at that time."" (Michael Heyd in ""Be Sober and Reasonable""). The work was published anonymous and earlier sometimes attributed to Daniel Defoe. - ‎

‎From Publishers Weekly In Boorstin's 1983 bestseller The Discoverers , the achievements of Galileo, Columbus, Darwin, Gutenberg and Freud emerged as upwellings of creativity and courage, ingenious acts of revolt against ingrained habit. This richly illustrated two-volume edition reveals the world as known to the discovers themselves. We see the tools of discovery--Egyptian obelisks, early clocks, Leeuwenhoek's microscope, Mercator's maps, botanical drawings from James Cook's voyages--and glimpse the social, cultural and political background, made concrete in 550 pictures including paintings, sculpture, engravings and architecture. A photograph of 15th-century cast bronze type from Korea underscores an Eastern invention that could have changed the course of printing, perhaps of science and culture. In a feast for the mind and eye, itself a delightful adventure in discovery, Boorstin, librarian of Congress emeritus, profiles--and places in context--scores of innovators who broke with dogma and tradition.

‎Sainthood, Scriptoria, and Secular Erudition in Medieval and Early Modern Scandinavia. Essays in Honour of Kirsten Wolf‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, 466 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:14 b/w, 26 col., 5 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9782503595481.‎


‎Summary While medieval Iceland has long been celebrated and studied for its rich tradition of vernacular literature, in recent years attention has increasingly been paid to other areas of Old Norse-Icelandic scholarship, in particular the production of hagiographical and religious literature. At the same time, a similar renaissance has arisen in other fields, in particular Old Norse-Icelandic paleography, philology, and manuscript studies, thanks to the development of the so-called 'new philology', and its impact on our understanding of manuscripts. Central to these developments has been the scholarship of Kirsten Wolf, one of the foremost authorities in the fields of Old Norse-Icelandic hagiography, biblical literature, paleography, codicology, textual criticism, and lexicography, who is the honorand of this volume. Taking Prof. Wolf's own research interests as its inspiration, this volume takes an unprecedented interdisciplinary approach to the theme of Sainthood, Scriptoria, and Secular Erudition in Medieval and Early Modern Scandinavia in order both to celebrate Wolf's profound career, and to illustrate the many ways in which these seemingly different fields overlap and converse with each other in important and productive ways. From sculpture to sagas, and from skaldic verse to textual editions and the translation of hitherto unpublished works, the contributions gathered here offer new and important insights into our knowledge of medieval and early modern Scandinavian literature, history, and culture.
