Penser en images les ordres religieux

A partir d'un corpus iconographique très riche (plus de 110 images), le présent ouvrage se propose de dégager comment la " pensée figurative " (Pierre Francastel) a conçu, au Moyen Age, la notion d'Ordo dans son acception d'" ordre religieux ". L'analyse des images, telle qu'elle est menée ici, nous conduit au cours du vaste champ anthropologique de la parenté spirituelle. Sont mises à jour les notions qui travaillent les documents figurés : les échos et les écarts entre les représentations de la " société des laïcs " et celles de la " société des moines " ; les rites de passage constitutifs des ordres ; le mythe des origines comme paradigme de la perfection ; la figure du p...

The Art of Cistercian Persuasion in the Middle Ages and Beyond

  • Publisher: BRILL

Focusing on the theory and practice of Cistercian persuasion, the articles gathered in this volume offer historical, literary critical and anthropological perspectives on Caesarius of Heisterbach’s Dialogus Miraculorum (thirteenth century), the context of its production and other texts directly or indirectly inspired by it. The exempla inserted by Caesarius into a didactic dialogue between a monk and a novice survived for many centuries and travelled across the seas thanks to rewritings and translations into vernacular languages. An accomplished example of the art of persuasion —medieval and early modern— the Dialogus Miraculorum establishes a link not only between the monasteries, the mendicant circles and other religious congregations but also between the Middle Ages and Modernity, the Old and the New World. Contributors are: Jacques Berlioz, Elisa Brilli, Danièle Dehouve, Pierre-Antoine Fabre, Marie Formarier, Jasmin Margarete Hlatky, Elena Koroleva, Nathalie Luca, Brian Patrick McGuire, Stefano Mula, Marie Anne Polo de Beaulieu, Victoria Smirnova, and Anne-Marie Turcan-Verkerk.

Communicating Papal Authority in the Middle Ages

This book bridges Japanese and European scholarly approaches to ecclesiastical history to provide new insights into how the papacy conceptualised its authority and attempted to realise and communicate that authority in ecclesiastical and secular spheres across Christendom. Adopting a broad, yet cohesive, temporal and geographical approach that spans the Early to the Late Middle Ages, from Europe to Asia, the book focuses on the different media used to represent authority, the structures through which authority was channelled and the restrictions that popes faced in so doing, and the less certain expression of papal authority on the edges of Christendom. Through twelve chapters that encompass...

Meanings of Community across Medieval Eurasia

  • Publisher: BRILL

This volume explores some of the many different meanings of community across medieval Eurasia. How did the three ‘universal’ religions, Christianity, Islam and Buddhism, frame the emergence of various types of community under their sway? The studies assembled here in thematic clusters address the terminology of community; genealogies; urban communities; and monasteries or ‘enclaves of learning’: in particular in early medieval Europe, medieval South Arabia and Tibet, and late medieval Central Europe and Dalmatia. It includes work by medieval historians, social anthropologists, and Asian Studies scholars. The volume present the results of in-depth comparative research from the Visions of Community project in Vienna, and of a dialogue with guests, offering new and exciting perspectives on the emerging field of comparative medieval history. Contributors are (in order within the volume) Walter Pohl, Gerda Heydemann, Eirik Hovden, Johann Heiss, Rüdiger Lohlker, Elisabeth Gruber, Oliver Schmitt, Daniel Mahoney, Christian Opitz, Birgit Kellner, Rutger Kramer, Pascale Hugon, Christina Lutter, Diarmuid Ó Riain, Mathias Fermer, Steven Vanderputten, Jonathan Lyon and Andre Gingrich.

Die Legende als Kunstform

Sabine Narr erschließt ein Forschungsfeld, das in der französischen Literaturwissenschaft, Literatur- und Mediengeschichte bisher kaum wahrgenommen wurde. Zeitgenössische Kunstprojekte wie die Lichtinstallationen in Chartres oder die Makrophotographien von Kirchenfenstern mit Legendendarstellungen sind Ausdruck eines innovativen, die neuen Medien einbeziehenden Umgangs mit religiöser Kunst und insbesondere mit Legendendarstellungen, der ohne die Entwicklung im 19. Jahrhundert nicht denkbar wäre. In der Literatur des 19. Jahrhunderts wird die Legende zu einer Kunstform erhoben, in deren Mittelpunkt eine Auseinandersetzung mit den anderen Künsten steht.
