‎L'affaire Galilée.‎

‎ Gallimard/Julliard, 1975, in-12, 265 pp, 16 pl. de gravures hors texte, biblio, couv. illustrée, broché, bon état (Coll. Archives)‎

‎Plus qu'un procès, plus qu'un débat de savants : il y a une affaire Galilée. Un homme affirme que la terre n'est pas le centre du monde, que l'univers est infini, que sa structure est mathématique. Il n'est pas le premier à la faire : il confirme les théories astronomiques de Copernic, et, avant lui, Giordano Bruno a payé de sa vie ses audaces spéculatives. Mais le premier, Galilée, tire toutes les conséquences de sa découverte. Physicien, il définit les conditions d'une interrogation rigoureuse de la nature : l'expérience. Pédagogue, il élabore un langage de la preuve. Philosophe, il revendique les droits de la science contre le principe d'autorité des scolastiques. Pendant vingt-cinq ans, l'Eglise romaine persécute à travers lui un nouvel ordre de l'intelligence. Une correspondance abondante et passionnée, les archives de deux procès ont permis à Emile Namer de replacer l'affaire Galilée aux origines de la pensée moderne. ‎

‎Folk Songs and Material Culture in Medieval Central Europe. Old Stones and New Music‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, xiv + 282 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:23 b/w, Languages: English, Latin, German. ISBN 9782503541327.‎

‎Summary This book takes a unique approach to the study of folk music in Central Europe. Through an analysis of this cultural tradition, and of how words and ideas that were first introduced in Latin Antiquity became increasingly cultivated, refined, and established in the centuries that followed, the volume also questions present-day studies of sound and its organization into the field of so-called 'folk music'. In so doing, it breaks down boundaries that separate historical studies from ethnomusicology, and sheds light on what music continues to mean in daily life. While the focus is primarily on Central European folk music, and in particular on material found in the Hungarian archives, the approach taken here also points to a fruitful comparative methodology that could be employed on a larger scale, enabling scholars to consider broader chronological and geographical contexts.

‎The Works of Kurt Weill: Transformations and Reconfigurations in 20th-Century Music brings together an international group of scholars to explore one of the most important and intriguing composers of the twentieth century. The collection approaches Kurt Weill?s career from new angles. Shedding new light on perennial issues such as the apparent split between his German and US careers, while pushing into new scholarly territory, including Weill?s engagement with technology and film, and his lasting legacy on Broadway and beyond. The volume consists of two parts: the first, ?Transformations?, explores the composer?s poetics, dramaturgy and expressive techniques through a number of case studies spanning Weill?s entire output (theater, film, radio); in the second, ?Reconfigurations?, the composer?s transnational career and reception are investigated through his compositional, poetic, and aesthetic choices.

‎Rietveld Schroder House - A Biography of the House‎

‎, Hannibal Books, 2024 Hardcover, 896 pages, 22 x 15 cm, illustrated, Text in English-Nederlands, *New. . ISBN 9789464941432.‎

‎Rietveld Schr der House: A Biography of the House tells the story of the iconic house and its creators, Truus Schr der (1889?1985) and Gerrit Rietveld (1888?1964). The construction of the house, the designs by ?Schr der & Rietveld Architects?, the war years, the renovations and the many family parties: this richly illustrated publication builds up a picture of the colourful life of the idiosyncratic Rietveld Schr der House. In addition to many previously unpublished photographs, drawings, designs and letters, the book provides in-depth insight into Rietveld and Schr der?s collaboration and their shared ambition to radically change traditional (interior) architecture. The research by authors Natalie Dubois and Jessica van Geel also convincingly shows that Truus Schr der?s role was far greater than previously assumed. As a gifted designer, Schr der was much more than Gerrit Rietveld's ?muse?. Her creative vision proved crucial to their joint projects. With its bespoke design by Irma Boom, this publication is a tribute to the world-famous house built in 1924 that continues to inspire today. Rietveld Schr der House: A Biography of the House is an accessible and essential reference work for lovers of modern architecture, art history and revolutionary daring. This publication coincides with the centenary of the Rietveld Schr der House, and is issued in collaboration with Centraal Museum Utrecht.‎

‎Saga of the Sister Saints. The Legend of Martha and Mary Magdalen in Old Norse-Icelandic Translation‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, xiii + 222 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Illustrations:5 b/w, Languages: English, Old Norse. ISBN 9780888442147.‎

‎Summary This book examines the cults and legends of Martha and Mary Magdalen in medieval Scandinavia, especially Iceland. While a number of parallels may be drawn between Iceland and mainland Scandinavia in terms of liturgical and artistic representations of Martha and Mary Magdalen, the Old Norse-Icelandic literary tradition stands apart from its Scandinavian counterparts in the cultural significance and relevance it gives to each of the "sister saints" in medieval Iceland, where the composite M?rtu saga ok Mar u Mag alenu was compiled in the mid-fourteenth century. The historical study that opens the volume treats the manuscripts and Latin sources of the saga, lending insight into authorship and provenance; it also details representations of Martha and Mary Magdalen in liturgical materials, art, and literature from medieval Scandinavia, before turning to the saints' cults and legends in medieval Iceland. All the available evidence for the "sister saints" in Iceland from its Christianization in 1000 until around the time of the Reformation in 1550 is analyzed in detail, especially evidence from church inventories (m ldagar) but also from literary works in prose and verse, as well as from charters and letters. Special attention is given to issues of style and content in the saga and, in particular, to views on women preachers in medieval Iceland. The book concludes with a normalized edition of the only complete redaction of M?rtu saga ok Mar u Mag alenu, followed by its first English translation.‎

‎MAN RAY: THE LIBERATED PORTRAIT‎

‎, Thames and Hudson, HB, 240 x 196 mm, 224 p, 165 illustrations, ENG edition. ISBN 9780500028117.‎

‎Published in connection with an exhibition opening at Photo Elys e in spring 2024, this book presents more than 150 of Man Ray's portraits, primarily from the 1920s and 30s. Man Ray (1890-1976) was a man both of and ahead of his time. With his conceptual approach and innovative techniques, he liberated photography from previous constraints and opened the floodgates to new ways of thinking about the medium. A close friend of Marcel Duchamp and Andr Breton, he was one of the few photographers to be mentioned among the Dada artists and Surrealists. He also worked as a fashion photographer, first for Vogue, and later for Harper's Bazaar and Vanity Fair. Renowned as the creator of Ingres' Violin - a photograph from 1924 that broke records when it was sold for $12.4 million in 2022 - Man Ray remains an influential figure in the worlds of art, fashion and pop culture, with many other artists referencing his work. Published in connection with an exhibition at Photo Elys e and in the centenary year of the publication of Andr Breton's Surrealist Manifesto, this book presents more than 150 of Man Ray's portraits, primarily from the 1920s and 30s. It includes portraits of the leading lights of the Paris art scene, among them Marcel Duchamp, Robert Delaunay, Georges Braque, Alberto Giacometti and Pablo Picasso, as well as a selection of his fashion work. As an innovator of photographic techniques and compositional form, Man Ray found the studio portrait - be it of the artists and writers with whom he had longstanding friendships, or of the objects and sculptures he collected - to be the playground in which he could express the visual wit and experimentation for which he is renowned.‎
