Romanticism is multifaceted, and a wide range of nostalgic, emotional, and exotic concerns were expressed in such styles and movements as the Gothic Revival, Classical Revival, Orientalism, and the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Some movements were regional and subject-specific, such as the Hudson River School of landscape painting in the United States and the German Nazarene movement, which focused primarily on religious art in Rome. The movements range across Western Europe and include the United States. This dictionary will provide a fuller historical context for Romanticism and enable the reader to identify major trends and explore artists of the period. This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Romantic Art and Architecture contains a chronology, an introduction, and an extensive bibliography. The dictionary section has over 300 cross-referenced entries on major artists of the romantic era as well as entries on related art movements, styles, aesthetic philosophies, and philosophers. This book is an excellent resource for students, researchers, and anyone wanting to know more about Romantic art.

Bisher war die Geschichte der Buchmalerei eher ein vernachlässigter Gegenstandsbereich der Kunstgeschichte. Mit dem vorliegenden Band wird nun für Italien, England und Frankreich eine Lücke innerhalb der kunsthistorischen Forschung geschlossen. Chronologisch, geographisch und thematisch geordnet werden verschiedene Bereiche der Buchmalerei mit ihren Fragestellungen und Anliegen vorgestellt. Die Autorin zeigt, wie sich die Rezeption von der Zeit der ersten Erwähnung von Buchmalern bei Vasari bis zum frühen 19. Jahrhundert wandelte. Deutlich wird dabei, dass stärker als kunsthistorische oder zeitästhetische Urteile andere Motive - antiquarische Interessen, juristische, kirchengeschichtliche und historische Studien - Veränderungen in der Rezeption der Buchmalerei begründeten.
