‎Summary Di Tommaso d'Aquino, il pi noto e studiato teologo medievale, ci sono giunti cinque testi autografi, che vengono presentati qui per la prima volta all'interno di uno studio complessivo. La scrittura che li caratterizza talmente ostica da essersi guadagnata, gi nel Medioevo, l'appellativo di littera inintelligibilis, e spesso viene considerata una scrittura assolutamente personale. Quando si studiano le opere di un uomo considerato eccezionale, in effetti, facile incorrere nell'errore di giudicare anomalo, o straordinario, tutto ci che egli produsse, anche sul piano materiale. Obiettivo principale di questo lavoro quello di descrivere la scrittura di Tommaso e di inserirla nel suo contesto, esaminandola come un'espressione della scrittura dei dotti del tempo. Il volume suddiviso in tre parti. Dopo una descrizione codicologica dei manoscritti conservati, ci si concentra sulla scrittura attraverso una minuziosa descrizione dei fatti grafici. Infine, a partire dagli elementi materiali ricavati dall'esame degli autografi, viene esaminato il metodo di lavoro seguito da Tommaso e dai suoi collaboratori. Il punto di vista privilegiato quello della storia della cultura scritta: gli autografi di Tommaso sono analizzati nella loro materialit come testimonianze importanti che aprono spiragli di conoscenza sul lavoro intellettuale nel medioevo.‎

‎Ethno-Religious Interaction in the Late Medieval Iberian World‎

‎, Brepols, 2026 Hardback, Pages: 300, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 b/w, 12 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503606910.‎

‎Summary This volume brings together nine essays that critically assess the current state of research on the evolving interrelations among Christians, Jews, Muslims, and 'pagan' non-Christians in late medieval and early modern Iberia, North Africa, and the emerging Atlantic world. Drawing on a range of local contexts, analytical approaches, and methodologies, two groups of essays examine how ethno-religious groups coexisted within Christian-ruled societies - while also offering provocative comparative insights into Muslim-ruled contexts. These essays explore the factors that sustained such pluralistic systems, the forces that precipitated their transformation or collapse, and how later generations interpreted these histories to shape subsequent policies. A third group focuses on the wider implications of these developments, particularly in Iberia's expanding North African and Atlantic frontiers, where Christian agents selectively invoked shared historical experiences to construct classificatory systems used to justify the appropriation, conversion, or enslavement of non-Christian peoples. Collectively, the volume interrogates issues of diversity, inclusion, and exclusion that remain as relevant today as they were in the premodern Mediterranean. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction THOMAS W.

‎Thomas Bayrle: 40 Jahre Chinese Rock n' Roll ‎

‎K ln, Walther K nig, 2007 Softcover, 304 pages, 28.5 x 21 cm. *good condition. ISBN 9783865601001.‎

‎Thomas Bayrle, born in 1937 in Berlin, has always been fascinated by Mao's China. As a young man, he saw photographs of stadium-wide choreographed events where participants held up signs on command, creating a giant picture. Inspired by this mass choreography, Bayrle replicated it in his early moving figurines, mixing Communist and capitalist elements. He says, "These ideological opposites become more similar and blurred, like the global rock 'n' roll today." This volume showcases Bayrle's prescient globalism through bright graphic works featuring repeating soldiers, Maos, chairs, and chickens in old-school silkscreen and recent digitized photographs. The softcover binding wraps all sides of the book, and pages are printed at full bleed, except for the interview section. ‎

‎, Lumi Press, 2021 hardcover 480 pages 642 illustrations , 29,5 x 29,5 cm. text in German / English.‎

‎Ostuni's passion for light and lighting, coupled with his desire to make good lighting affordable for everyone, has resulted in the most beautiful lighting units, presented here in their entirety for the first time. Volume 1 paints a comprehensive picture of O-Luce?s company history and takes a look at the life story of its founder, Giuseppe Ostuni. Originally from Trieste, he founded his company O-Luce in Milan at the age of 40 and went on to become a pioneer of innovative, modern lighting units. Ostuni?s brother Angelo, together with Franco Buzzi, were the first to make O-Luce known beyond the borders of Italy and were key in shaping light design in the early 1950s. New materials, such as Perspex and industrial glass, or new light source technologies such as the Cornalux or halogen light, had a decisive influence on the design of modern lighting and here too Ostuni and his young designers, above all Tito Agnoli, Joe Colombo and Bruno Gecchelin, were at the forefront of lighting design. ‎

The main body of the second volume is comprised of the catalogue raisonn , which is divided into four sections: wall lamps, table lamps, floor lamps and ceiling lamps, containing a total of over 560 lamps. Each lighting unit is described with its model number, designer, year of design, materials, dimensions and ? in those cases in which they were published ? bibliographical details. Volume 2 also contains a critical chronological overview of those O-Luce lighting units published in specialised literature, magazines and catalogues at the time. A selected bibliography and a comprehensive index of the relevant figures mentioned concludes the second volume.‎

‎OLUCE - Monograph and Catalogue Raisonn (VOL. III) This volume, the third in our exploration of Oluce's legacy, traces a compelling trajectory from the foundational principles of modernism to the broader conceptual horizons of contemporary design. It opens with Vico Magistretti, the master of Milanese rationalism, whose collaboration with Oluce produced icons of enduring clarity. In works such as the timeless ATOLLO lamp, Magistretti demonstrated that a light source could be distilled into pure geometric form ? rigorous, essential, and poetic. As the currents of design evolved, Oluce reaffirmed its vitality by cultivating a new generation of designers while remaining faithful to its formal ethos. The postmodern 1980s and the restrained 1990s marked a period of diversification without fragmentation. Rather than being defined by a single authorial voice, this era unfolded as a dialogue among distinct personalities ? including Bruno Gecchelin, Riccardo Dalisi, and Hannes Wettstein ? culminating in Marco Romanelli?s appointment as art director following Magistretti?s departure in the mid-1990s. ?Oluce Vol. 3? is not conceived as a simple chronological account, but as an exploration of a rare creative alchemy. It examines how a company rooted in craft yet driven by experimentation can serve simultaneously as catalyst and canvas for divergent visions. Through archival sketches, luminous photography, historical documentation, and a comprehensive catalogue raisonn , this volume reveals the connective thread uniting these masters: a rigorous pursuit of character, a profound respect for light as material, and the conviction that a lamp is never merely an object, but a lifelong companion.‎

‎Summary L'Antiphonaire de Le n, ?joyau des antiphonaires latins? (dom Louis Brou), est le seul complet de l'ancienne liturgie hispanique. Conserv la cath drale de Le n et dat du dixi me si cle, il est introduit par vingt-sept folios qui appartiennent tr s certainement au manuscrit originel. Encore largement m connus malgr leur grande richesse, ces folios contiennent des textes litt raires et liturgiques, un calendrier, des miniatures, des tableaux et des roues de comput, ainsi qu'un trait de comput. L' dition de ces pi ces - l'exception du trait - et leur analyse pluridisciplinaire (codicologique, pal ographique, iconographique, litt raire, musicologique, liturgique et computistique) permettent d' tudier en profondeur la vie religieuse et la culture de cette poque, l'importance de l'h ritage wisigothique, les influences venues du monde ultra-pyr n en, ainsi que les origines et les remaniements de ce codex. Ces folios introductifs constituent tout la fois la porte d'entr e et la clef de lecture d'un manuscrit dont l'histoire se trouve au c?ur des grands enjeux de son temps?: r alis pour le monast re San Cipriano del Condado, il fut vite transf r au monast re Santiago de Le n puis au chapitre de la cath drale. Bien que proche des centres de pouvoir - il comporte les seings du roi Ferdinand Ier et de ses fils -, il sombra dans l'oubli lorsque son fils Alphonse VI accepta en 1080 de renoncer la liturgie hispanique et d'adopter, la demande du pape Gr goire VII, le rit romain. Cette tude participe sa red couverte.
