Workshop : « Past and Present Representations of Historical Urban Spaces (Middle Ages – Early Modern Times) », Dubrovnik, 21-23 septembre 2023

Appel à contribution : « Commemoration and the Senses in Late Medieval Europe », Leeds, University of Leeds, 3-6 juillet 2024, date limite le 24 septembre 2023

In the lesser-known treatise De cura pro mortuis gerenda, Augustine of Hippo argued that tombs, when located in beautiful surroundings, are particularly powerful tools to incite genuine experiences of prayer in the mourner. Though writing in late antiquity, Augustine’s words would be echoed in several late medieval texts concerning commemoration, as a myriad of sensorial experiences was thought to be an integral component of the commemoration of deceased individuals. The ensemble of funerary art was...

Stencil painting was a common and widespread decorative technique in both sacred and profane interior design at the end of the Middle Ages and in the early modern period (until 1550). As far as we know today, its area of distribution extended over the entire Central European region. Of the once extensive and sometimes very elaborately decorated objects, only a few have survived in their entirety. Their design ideas, which are often room-related, can still...

Parution : Alessandra Bartolomei Romagnoli, « Corpo sacro. Scrittura ed esperienza mistica tra medioevo ed età moderna », Spolète, Centro italiano di studi sull’alto medioevo, 2022

A partire dal Duecento si verificano processi culturali di grande rilevanza e mutamenti di carattere epocale nel vissuto religioso del popolo cristiano. Per Giacomo da Vitry, illustre iniziatore del nuovo genere letterario dell’agiografia mistica, si apre una nuova età, quella delle Madri della Chiesa. La centralità assegnata al mistero dell’Incarnazione e alla umanità del Cristo, il culto eucaristico e quello mariano interessano da vicino il mondo femminile per l’attenzione riservata al problema del corpo, ma...

Appel à contribution : « De coloribus. Material, Symbolic and Social Crossroads of Medieval and Renaissance Painting », date limite le 29 mai 2023

Colour, both in its material and light dimensions, played a leading role in Medieval and Renaissance visual culture. Taking part in altarpieces, sculptures, architecture, tapestries, wall paintings and illuminated manuscripts, colour embraced multiple variants. Likewise, the translucent, ethereal but also brilliant and changing tones of enameled pieces and goldsmiths, gems, mosaics and stained glasses acquired an equally vital importance. Far from the imaginaries built during the nineteenth century about a Middle Ages plunged into dark...
