Exposition : « Renaissance Masterpieces of Judaica: The Mishneh Torah and The Rothschild Mahzor », New York, The Met Fifth Avenue, 16 mars 2023 jusque *sans date de fin annoncée à ce jour

Parution : Michele Tomasi (dir.), Dans le manuscrit et en dehors: Échanges entre l’enluminure et les autres arts (IX e -XVI e siècles), Viella, 2023

L’enluminure occupe une place centrale dans le système des arts du Moyen Âge et de la première époque moderne. Dotée de caractères propres par son intégration dans cet organisme complexe qu’est le codex, elle dialogue néanmoins avec les autres domaines de la création. Cet ouvrage explore justement les rapports entre l’enluminure et d’autres arts – que ce soient les textiles, l’orfèvrerie, la sculpture, la gravure ou encore la peinture sur panneau et la peinture monumentale...

À l’époque moderne, les navires sillonnant les mers et les océans du monde ne transportent pas seulement à leur bord des hommes et des marchandises. Transitent aussi « par la voie de la mer » des écrits en tout genre, à l’instar des routiers et des cartes utiles à la navigation, des journaux de bord tenus par les capitaines de vaisseaux, des papiers personnels de passagers et membres d’équipage, ou encore des « paquets »...

Parution : Anne D. Hedeman, Visual Translation: Illuminated Manuscripts and the First French Humanists, Notre Dame Press, 2022

Hedeman explores how visual translation works in a series of unusually densely illuminated manuscripts associated with Laurent and Lebègue circa 1404–45. These manuscripts cover both Latin texts, such as Statius’s Thebiad and Achilleid, Terence’s Comedies, and Sallust’s Conspiracy of Cataline and Jurguthine War, and French translations, including Cicero’s De senectute, Boccaccio’s De casibus virorum illustrium and Decameron, and Bruni’s De bello Punico primo. Illuminations constitute a significant part of these manuscripts’s textual apparatus, which helped...

Parution : L. Freeman Sandler, « Penned & Painted: The Art and Meaning of Books in Medieval and Renaissance Manuscripts », British Library, 2022

Penned & Painted is a beautifully produced, large format book in which one of the most celebrated historians of medieval art surveys one of the world’s great collections and asks ‘what is a medieval book?’. The idea of the book was central throughout the western European and the eastern Mediterranean world in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. From the beginning, the word for ‘book’— sefer in Hebrew, biblia in Greek, and liberin Latin — was identified with...
