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

‎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 From sculpture to sagas, and from skaldic verse to textual editions and the translation of hitherto unpublished works, the contributions gathered here offer new and important insights into our knowledge of medieval and early modern Scandinavian literature, history, and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.

‎Manifesti Pubblicitaa e Moda Italiana 1890-1950 = Posters : Advertising and Italian Fashion 1890-1950‎

‎, Silvana Editoriale, 2013 Hardcover with dusjacket, 238 pagina's , Illustrated. Fine copy. ISBN 9788836623433.‎

‎Mountains, hills, parks, rivers, lakes, seashores, art cities with an ancient past, thermal spas, Renaissance villas, intriguing archeological ruins and a solid tradition of hospitality have made Italy, since the late nineteenth century, a favored destination of a nascent national and international exclusive, cultured class of tourism. To make Italians themselves as well as the foreign market aware of the many attractions of the Beautiful Country, the message was entrusted to the publicity tools par excellence of that time: posters, flyers, brochures, picture magazines. Their force of communication and capillary penetration was the vehicle for luminous, charming, and always very elegant images, in both choice of color and formal solutions, which were often commissioned from the leading illustrators of the period, from Duilio Cambellotti to Leonetto Cappiello, from Marcello Dudovich to Franz Lenhart, from Gino Boccasile to Mario Puppo.Travel, one of the most accessible and alluring "dreams" of the twentieth-century public, thus became -for many if not for all- a social necessity and a finally affordable interval of beauty, loisirs, quiet, civilization, and culture.The catalogue is divided into seven thematic chapters and is preceded by a historical essay and completed by a bibliography.‎

‎Building with Paper. The Materiality of Renaissance Architectural Drawings‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 176 pages, Size:180 x 265 mm, Illustrations:30 b/w, 60 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503591186.‎

‎Summary The introduction of paper is one of the major innovations of Early Modern architecture, and it had profound effects on its design processes. Wider use of paper changed representational conventions, while communication networks were affected by the many implications of portability and reproducibility: circulation of models for study and design increased, and new possibilities of remote control of the building site emerged. The material dimensions of these practices are the subject of the present volume, which collects essays that engage with the manifold inter- and multi-medial complexities of Italian Renaissance architectural drawings on paper.

‎Museum as Experience. An Email Odyssey through Artists' and Collectors' Museums‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, 404 pages, Size:225 x 280 mm, Illustrations:60 b/w, 140 col., Languages: English, French. ISBN 9782503583518.‎

‎Summary Museums created by artists and/or collectors are a favorite destination of museum lovers and raise important issues in connection with the history and evolution of art museums at large. They have developed in a critical relation to large, collective or 'encyclopaedic' museums, defending a primacy of experience and intimacy. And they remain attached to the persons of their founders, functioning as monuments and even mausoleums. Yet despite their appeal, a recent surge of new creations and a wealth of monographic documentation, no general study of the topic has been attempted. The Museum as Experience describes and analyses the phenomenon as a whole, from its beginnings around 1800 to the present and from its European origin to a worldwide extension. It examines in depth fifteen case studies distributed across the globe and chosen for their representative character and the quality of their original arrangement. In order to do justice to their meaningful relation to the spatial context and to their hospitality towards the subjective visitor, the book is written as a travelogue and organizes a dialogue between two narrators, an architect and an art historian. Richly illustrated with many unpublished documents, it is a scholarly work that can be read like a novel. It argues that artists' and collectors' museums are best understood as 'author museums' and make it possible to enjoy and study display as a mode of expression and communication, an art of assemblage and installation avant la lettre, and a challenge for interpretation.

‎Jagiellon Dynasty, 1386-1596. Politics, Culture, Diplomacy‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 273 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 tables b/w., 7 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503598970.‎

‎Summary The volume offers a re-examination of the rise of the Jagiellon dynasty in medieval and early modern Central Europe. Originating in Lithuania and extending its dominion to Poland, Hungary, and Bohemia, the Jagiellon dynasty has left an enduring legacy in European history. This collection of studies presents the Jagiellons as rulers with dynamic and negotiated authority. It begins with the dynasty's origins and its dynastic union with Poland, milestones that have shaped the political and cultural trajectory of the dynasty's reign. The volume places significant emphasis on the role of royal consorts, thereby broadening traditional gender-focused perspectives. Far from being mere accessories, queens had a considerable influence on governance, economic matters, and diplomacy. The cultural impact of Jagiellon rule is analysed through interactions with humanists and the intellectual milieu of the court. The performative aspects of Jagiellon power, including the use of words, gestures, and even intentional silences, are examined as powerful tools of articulation. Emotional factors that influence governance and intricate dynastic relationships are explored, revealing how political decisions, especially constitutional reforms, are made more rapidly when faced with perceived dynastic vulnerabilities. In Poland, the rise of parliamentary institutions under the earlier Jagiellon monarchs epitomises the concept of negotiated authority, underscoring the growing political role of the nobility. This volume thus provides a multi-faceted and nuanced understanding of the Jagiellon dynasty's legacy in political, cultural, and gender-related spheres, enhancing understanding of European history.
