Parution : Dijana O. Apostolski et Aaron White (dir.), “Early Modern Architecture and Whiteness. Power by Design”, Londres, Routledge, 2025

Framing whiteness as a sensorial quality connate with ethical, aesthetic, epistemological, and ontological hierarchies, this edited volume examines how the category of whiteness shaped architectural theories and practices across the early modern period. What was architecture’s role in race-making, constructions of whiteness, and processes of othering more generally? How was whiteness architecturally questioned, reinforced, conceptualized, practiced, and materialized? And how did whiteness intersect with categories such as class, nation, gender, beauty, hygiene, and health? In...

Colloque: “Die ehemalige Dominikanerkirche St. Magdalena”, Augsburg, Université d’Augsburg, du 20 au 21 novembre 2025

Prof. Dr. Andrea Gottdang, Universität Augsburg, Lehrstuhl Kunstgeschichte. St. Magdalena in Augsburg diente zwischen 1515 und 1807 als Klosterkirche der Dominikaner, deren Geschichte genau vor 800 Jahren mit einigen Mönchen „Am Schwall“ begann. Sie zogen 1313 in die verlassenen Gebäude des aufgehobenen Templerordens um, und der Konvent wuchs auf zeitweise 40 Brüder an. Als die mittelalterliche Kirche um 1500 nicht mehr repräsentativ genug erschien, ließ Prior Johannes Faber 1513–1515 den Frührenaissance-Bau errichten, dessen riesiges Dach...

Appel à contribution : “Good Governance and the Built Environment of Late Medieval Cities (ca. 1200–1600)”, Brussels, du 3 au 5 septembre 2025, date limite le 7 avril 2025

In the late Middle Ages, cities were governed through constant dialogue. Rulers, nobility, citizens and other social groups all found ways to shape urban governance, each articulating complex views on what “good” governance entailed. In order to meet expectations of justice, protection, economic welfare, and the common good, all the forementioned individuals would often invest in the city’s built environment, either by initiating new architectural and infrastructural projects, or by securing the maintenance of existing...

Parution : Pierre Sesmat et Frédéric Tixier (dir.), « Liturgie et architecture – quels liens ? (Moyen Age-Temps modernes) », Metz, Publications historiques de l’Est, 2024

Que la liturgie et l’architecture aient partie liée relève pour beaucoup de l’évidence. Une interdépendance qui soumettrait les formes architecturales – en l’occurrence les églises – aux besoins de la liturgie et inversement, conditionnerait le fonctionnement liturgique par le cadre architectural. Mais dès que les historiens et historiens d’art entrent dans les études de cas – ici tirés aussi bien du Moyen Âge que des Temps modernes – , il est patent que ce lien se trouve...
