Making the Medieval Relevant
When scholars discuss the medieval past, the temptation is to become immersed there, to deepen our appreciation of the nuances of the medieval sources through debate about their meaning. But the past informs the present in a myriad of ways and medievalists can, and should, use their research to address the concerns and interests of contemporary society. This volume presents a number of carefully commissioned essays that demonstrate the fertility and originality of recent work in Medieval Studies. Above all, they have been selected for relevance. Most contributors are in the earlier stages of their careers and their approaches clearly reflect how interdisciplinary methodologies applied to Med...
The Cults of Raphael and Michelangelo
This study explores the phenomenon of the cults of Raphael and Michelangelo in relation to their death, burial, and posthumous fame—or second life—from their own times through the nineteenth century. These two artists inspired fervent followings like no other artists before them. The affective response of those touched by the potency of the physical presence of their art- works, personal effects, and remains—or even touched by the power of their creative legacy—opened up new avenues for artistic fame, divination, and commemoration. Within this cultural framework, this study charts the elevation of the status of dozens of other artists in Italy through funerals and tomb memorialization, many of which were held and made in response to those of Raphael and Michelangelo. By bringing together disparate sources and engaging material as well as a variety of types of artworks and objects, this book will be of great interest to anyone who studies early modern Italy, art history, cultural history, and Italian studies.
The Author's Effects
The Author's Effects: On the Writer's House Museum is the first book to describe how the writer's house museum came into being as a widespread cultural phenomenon across Britain, Europe, and North America. Exploring the ways that authorship has been mythologised through the conventions of the writer's house museum, The Author's Effects anatomises the how and why of the emergence, establishment, and endurance of popular notions of authorship in relation to creativity. It traces how and why the writer's bodily remains, possessions, and spaces came to be treasured in the late eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, as a prelude to the appearance of formal writer's house museums. It ransacks more t...

The Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus
The Trial and Crucifixion of Jesus is a comprehensive sourcebook for those looking to gain a more robust understanding of this event through the eyes of ancient writers. Featuring extrabiblical primary texts--along with a new translation and commentary by David W. Chapman and Eckhard J. Schnabel--this work is relevant for understanding Jesus' last days. The significance of Jesus' death is apparent from the space that Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John devote to the Passion narrative, from the emphasis of many speeches in the book of Acts, and from the missionary preaching and the theology of the apostle Paul. Exegetical discussions of Jesus' trial and death have employed biblical (Old Testament) ...

Archeologia Medievale, XXXVIII, 2011 - Donne e uomini, parentela e memoria tra storia e archeologia
Contiene la sezione monografica “Donne e uomini, parentela e memoria tra storia, archeologia e genetica. Un progetto interdisciplinare per il futuro”, a c. di Cristina La Rocca nella quale viene trattato del ruolo delle donne e degli uomini nella società medievale, con particolare attenzione all’Altomedioevo, attraverso i procedimenti propri sia dell’archeologia che di altre discipline, quali la storia, la biologia e la genetica. La sezione Saggi accoglie quattro contributi sull’archeologia del territorio nella penisola iberica e un contributo relativo alle sepolture di età altomedievale rinvenute entro la cinta muraria di Cividale, a cui si possono ricollegare due testi relativi allo stesso ambito cronologico presenti nella sezione Note e Discussioni. Le relazioni accolte nelle Notizie preliminari dall’Italia sono tutte legate a indagini archeologiche in edifici ecclesiastici, mentre quella inserita nelle Notizie preliminari dal bacino del Mediterraneo espone i risultati delle indagini nelle strutture ipogee di un castello (Kale) situato nella Turchia sud-orientale.
Kontroversen in der jüngeren Mediävistik
Die Geschichte der Mediävistik ist (wie die Geschichte der Geschichtswissenschaft) von zahlreichen Kontroversen geprägt, die unterschiedliche Ursachen haben und sich, neben Deutungs- und Bewertungsdifferenzen der Quellen und Quellenberichte, vielfach in allgemeine geschichtswissenschaftliche Debatten eingliedern, hier aber durchaus mediävistische Eigenheiten aufweisen. Sie resultieren teils aus weltanschaulichen Gegensätzen, teils aus der Entwicklung der Geschichtswissenschaft mit immer wieder veränderten Perspektiven oder aus neuen Fragen, Ansätzen und Untersuchungsmethoden, aber auch aus unterschiedlicher Beurteilung des Mittelalterspezifischen und der Relevanz des Mittelalters (und ...
