  • Publisher: OUP Oxford

The Church in Ancient Society provides a full and enjoyable narrative history of the first six centuries of the Christian Church. Ancient Greek and Roman society had many gods and an addiction to astrology and divination. This introduction to the period traces the process by which Christianity changed this and so provided a foundation for the modern world: the teaching of Jesus created a lasting community, which grew to command the allegiance of the Roman emperor. Christianity is discussed in relation to how it appeared to both Jews and pagans, and how its Christian doctrine and practice were shaped in relation to Graeco-Roman culture and the Jewish matrix. Among the major figures discussed ...

The Routledge Handbook of Early Christian Art surveys a broad spectrum of Christian art produced from the late second to the sixth centuries. The first part of the book opens with a general survey of the subject and then presents fifteen essays that discuss specific media of visual art—catacomb paintings, sculpture, mosaics, gold glass, gems, reliquaries, ceramics, icons, ivories, textiles, silver, and illuminated manuscripts. Each is written by a noted expert in the field. The second part of the book takes up themes relevant to the study of early Christian art. These seven chapters consider the ritual practices in decorated spaces, the emergence of images of Christ’s Passion and miracle...

The Religious Figural Imagery of Byzantine Lead Seals II

  • Type: Book
  • -
  • Published: 2020-03-19

  • Publisher: Routledge

The articles republished in this volume are ground-breaking studies that employ a large body of religious figural imagery of Byzantine lead seals ranging from the 6th to the 15th century. A number of the studies present tables, charts and graphs in their analysis of iconographic trends and changing popularity of saintly figures over time. And since many of the seals bear inscriptions that include the names, titles or offices of their owners, information often not given for the patrons of sacred images in other media, these diminutive objects permit an investigation into the social use of sacred imagery through the various sectors of Byzantine culture: the civil, ecclesiastical and military a...

Vom Genius zum Medienästheten

Die vorliegende Studie widmet sich einem Genre, das von der literatur- und theaterwissenschaftlichen Forschung ungeachtet seiner Popularität bislang kaum fokussiert worden ist, dem Künstlerdrama. Ziel der Arbeit ist die Entwicklung einer systematischen Typologie aus feldtheoretischer Perspektive. Dabei werden ausgewählte Theatertexte u.a. von Gerhart Hauptmann, Bertolt Brecht, Wolfgang Bauer, Thomas Bernhard und Falk Richter theoriegeleitet und werkbezogen analysiert. Gefragt wird nach den kunst- und künstlerspezifischen Problemstellungen, den Kunstauffassungen der jeweiligen Autoren, die sich in den jeweiligen Dramen auf thematischer und literarästhetischer Ebene manifestieren sowie nach den Positionierungsstrategien der Dramatiker, können ihre Bühnenstücke doch als distinktive Stellungnahmen im kulturellen Feld gelesen werden. Neben den exemplarischen Einzelanalysen bietet die Studie einen historischen Überblick über die Genese der Gattung und die zentralen Motive des Künstlerdramas im 20. Jahrhundert.
