Ksenia Bonch Reeves

This is a multi-angled investigation of an enigmatic manuscript which provides a unique window into the world of early medieval Bavaria at a time of cultural flowering and political upheaval.

This study of Iberian Latin chronicles composed between the mid-eighth and mid-thirteenth centuries brings into critical focus the period after the fall of the Visigoths as a time characterized by an intense search for models of social cohesion amid diversity and political fragmentation.

L’ouvrage aborde ces monuments comme lieux d’échange et de consommation de produits importés. Les contributions réunies abordent ces thèmes pour douze pays européens, mais évoquent également deux exemples issus de l’espace islamique. À travers l’analyse de réseaux castraux contrôlés par un même pouvoir et des études monographiques, ces différentes approches mettent en lumière une fonction du château qui avait parfois été sous-évaluée jusqu’ici. 328 p., 220 x 280 mm, Centre de Recherches Archéologiques et Historiques Médiévales, 2016, ISBN 978-2-84133-828-3 Hardback: € 42.65 Série: Château Gaillard.

The Mirror in Medieval and Early Modern Culture Specular Reflections Nancy M. Frelick (ed.)

This volume examines the intersections between material and metaphorical mirrors in medieval and early modern culture. Specialists in medieval and early modern science, cultural and political history, as well as art history, philosophy, and literature come together to explore mirrors as both sources of illusion and reflections of divine truth and to answer why mirrors compel us to question the very nature of representation.

Graphic Signs of Identity, Faith, and Power in Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages Ildar H. Garipzanov, Caroline Goodson, Henry Maguire (eds)

Brings together historians, art historians, and archaeologists to discuss the role of graphic representational signs and symbols and to look at contexts facilitating their dissemination in a wide range of media in the late Roman and post-Roman worlds In this volume, twelve specialists examine the role of graphic signs such as cross signs, christograms, and monograms in the late Roman and post-Roman worlds and the contexts that facilitated their dissemination in diverse media.The essays collected here explore the rise and spread of graphic signs in relation to socio-cultural transformations during Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages, focusing in particular on evolving perceptions and projections of authority. They ask whether some culturally specific norms and practices of graphic composition and communication can be discerned behind the rising corpus of graphic signs from the fourth to tenth centuries and whether common features can be found in their production and use across various media and contexts. The contributors to this book analyse the uses of graphic signs in quotidian objects, imperial architectural programmes, and a wide range of other media. In doing so, they argue that late antique and early medieval graphic signs were efficacious means to communicate with both the supernatural and earthly worlds, as well as to disseminate visual messages regarding religious identity and faith, and social power. xviii + 394 p., 141 b/w ills, 156 x 234 mm, 2017, ISBN 978-2-503-56724-2 Hardback: € 110 Series: Cursor Mundi, vol. 27 Available

Relics, Identity, and Memory in Medieval Europe

Boundaries in the Medieval and Wider World Essays in Honour of Paul Freedman

Marika Räsänen, Gritje Hartmann, Earl Jeffrey Richards (eds)

Thomas Barton, Susan McDonough, Sara McDougall, Matthew Wranovix (eds)

Poland’s first native chronicler and a proud contributor to the twelfth century renaissance placed his people’s history on a continuum with the classical world. This work brings to light the importance of Poland in the making of Europe and presents an in-depth analysis of the Chronica Polonorum, one of the greatest works of the twelfth-century renaissance which profoundly influenced history writing in Central Europe.

This volume contributes to current discussions of the place of relics in devotional life, politics, and identity-formation, by illustrating both the power which relics were thought to emanate as well as the historical continuity in the significance assigned to that power. The volume covers both a wide historical and geographical span, from Late Antiquity to the early modern period, and from northern, central, and southern Europe.

The articles in this collection delve into the Middle Ages and the early modern period, exploring such topics as the religious culture, Spain, and the history of food. They explore a range of different boundaries, both tangible and theoretical: law, religion, peasants, historiography, and food, medicine, and the exotic. These collected essays identify historical quandaries and possibilities to guide future research and study.

Harvey Miller Publishers

Taking advantage of the vast archives of the Medici Grand Dukes, the authors of this volume present original research and fresh perspectives on the Medici family and the Tuscan court, revealing the mechanisms of Medicean diplomacy, patronage, and cultural brokerage. The Grand Ducal Medici and their Archive offers a unique window into early modern Florentine society through an exploration of the archives of the Medici ruling family. Teeming with circa three million letters, the archival collection of the Medici grand dukes housed at the Archivio di Stato in Florence chronicles the culture and history of Europe and beyond, across a span of over two hundred years.The letters of this collection, known as the Mediceo del Principato, embrace a great variety of themes including diplomacy, art, medicine, food, science, and warfare. Since its contents originate from a court archive that served both the state and a ruling family, this collection comprises administrative, political, and financial correspondence, as well as more private and intimate accounts of the Medici themselves and their activity at court. This volume, The Grand Ducal Medici and their Archive, aims to unlock not only the complex structure of the Mediceo del Principato but also the richness of its content.The sixteen essays address a variety of topics – book history, Ottoman relations, collections of New World artifacts, medical history, gender studies, and material culture – all with direct reference to the Medici grand duchy. The original research that supports these studies was drawn in part from the Medici Archive Project's online platform (BIA) for querying over 350,000 digitized and/ or transcribed letters. Making use of these and other original sources, the essays in The Grand Ducal Medici and their Archive shed new light on the mechanisms and strategies that enabled Florence to emerge from decades of internecine confl ict and diplomatic chaos in order to enjoy cultural and political prominence.

Islands in the West Classical Myth and the Medieval Norse and Irish Geographical Imagination Matthias Egeler

The archaeology of food is in all sorts of ways 'hot'. The focus in this varied collection of studies by key scholars in the field is on cuisine and foodways in the Mediterranean and north-western Europe during Medieval and Post-Medieval times (ca. 6th20th c.). The scope of the contributions encompasses archaeological and historical perspectives on eating habits, cooking techniques, diet practices and table manners in the Islamic World, the Byzantine Empire, the Crusader States, Medieval and Renaissance Europe and the Ottoman Empire. The volume offers a state of the art of an often still hardly known territory in gastronomical archaeology, which makes it essential reading for scholars and a larger audience alike.

This monograph traces the history of one of the most prominent types of geographical myths of the North-West Atlantic Ocean: transmarine otherworlds of blessedness and immortality. In doing so, it shows how myths as far distant in time and space as Homer’s Elysian Plain and the transmarine otherworlds of the Norse are connected by a continuous history of creative processes of adaptation and reinterpretation.

Review 'The book’s strength lies in the authors’ recognition that incorporating archaeological, material culture, and textual evidence with culinary history is of paramount importance in developing a comprehensive and textured comprehension of meals and mealtimes in the past.' - Mary C. Beard.

Medieval and Post-Medieval Ceramics in the Eastern Mediterranean

From Carrickfergus to Carcassonne

The aim of this book is to uncover the conception of self that underlay the demand that all Christians confess their innermost thoughts. Drawing on sources from the world of the medieval schools, it juxtaposes discussions that treat topics ranging from the difficulties of discerning the source of tears to the mechanics of original sin. All these discussions are linked by their underlying interest in the internal aspects of committing or remitting sin. xii + 171 p., 150 x 230 mm, Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies, 2016, ISBN 978-0-88844-200-0 Hardback: € 75 Series: Studies and Texts, vol. 200 Available

A small, battered 14th-century Anglo-Irish manuscript full of ribald and taboo poems and stories holds the key to unlocking a medieval community’s troubled social, devotional and political history. This book examines these texts and reveals the pattern of politicized discourse surrounding this important medieval Anglo-Irish cultural artefact that has hitherto obscured, rather than elucidated, the very personal interactions of some of the era’s key figures.

DISCIPLINA MONASTICA Crime, châtiment et grâce dans les monastères au Moyen Âge (XIIe-XVe siècle) Elisabeth Lusset

Ce livre analyse les crimes commis à l’intérieur des monastères médiévaux (violences, homicides ou encore vols) et la manière dont les religieux criminels étaient corrigés tant par les abbés, les évêques, les chapitres généraux des ordres religieux que par les organes de la curie romaine. Il compare, à l’échelle de l’Europe, les établissements de moines, chanoines réguliers et moniales, qu’ils appartiennent à un ordre (Cluny, Cîteaux, Prémontré, Grande Chartreuse) ou à une nébuleuse moins définie sur le plan juridique (abbayes et prieurés de moines bénédictins ou de chanoines réguliers). En explorant le fonctionnement de la justice claustrale, les peines prescrites ainsi que les mécanismes de réconciliation des criminels, l’ouvrage éclaire sous un angle nouveau les processus de construction institutionnelle et de réforme des ordres religieux entre les XIIe et XVe siècles. Ancienne élève de l’École normale supérieure Lettres et Sciences humaines de Lyon, ancienne pensionnaire de la Fondation Thiers, agrégée d’histoire et docteur en histoire médiévale, Élisabeth Lusset travaille sur l’histoire comparée des ordres religieux et sur le gouvernement de l’Église médiévale. approx. 400 p., 210 x 270 mm, 2017, ISBN 978-2-503-56765-5 Paperback: approx. € 110 Série: Disciplina Monastica, vol. 12 Publication prévue pour l'été 2017

Regina Cœli. Les images mariales et le culte des reliques

Episcopal Power and Local Society in Medieval Europe, 1000-1400

Entre Orient et Occident au Moyen Âge

Peter Coss, Chris Dennis, Melissa Julian-Jones, Angelo Silvestri (eds)

Anna Maria Migdal

The essays collected in this volume analyse aspects of the formation, enhancement and manifestation of episcopal power at the level of its foundation in local society in medieval Europe between 1000 and 1400. The essays have a broad geographical scope and include studies focused on English, French, Italian, and Icelandic dioceses. Les images-reliquaires, dont la singularité attire notre attention, se définissent par la complexité de leur composition tant au point de vue artistique qu’au point de vue religieux. C’est pourquoi, nous souhaitons les joindre aux créations semblables répandues dans l’art entre Orient et Occident au Moyen Âge. Dans la même optique, il serait également intéressant de s’interroger sur la continuité de tels objets au-delà de l’époque médiévale.

Nuns’ Literacies in Medieval Europe The Antwerp Dialogue

Intricate Interfaith Networks in the Middle Ages

Veronica O'Mara,Virginia Blanton, Patricia Stoop (eds)

The book explores the extraordinarily intricate network of connections between Christians and Jews in the medieval urban sphere. It studies a number of phenomena through different disciplinary approaches. Ties of an economic and cultural nature are examined as well as the social contacts and networks in the fields of art, science and matters of daily life. The picture that emerges is altogether more nuanced and diverse than the bipolar paradigm that has dominated previous scholarship.

This collection of essays brings together specialists working on diverse geographical areas to create a dialogue about the Latin and vernacular texts nuns read, wrote, and exchanged from the eighth to the mid-sixteenth centuries. Contributors to this volume investigate the topic of literacy primarily from palaeographical and textual evidence and by discussing information about book ownership and production in convents.

Susan Powell

In this academic study, the Reverend Doctor Sarah Lenzi revisits the evidence-based history of the western European development of the Stations as it was laid out at the turn of the twentieth century. This work helps to explore notions of time, place, and space in Medieval Christianity, arguing for an understanding of placelessness in Christian piety that is enabled through intentional ritualized use of imagination, narrative, body, and word.

This volume examines the Birgittine Order of nuns as producers and readers of texts in Britain from the fifteenth to the early sixteenth century, through an analysis of medieval manuscripts and early printed books. It highlights the community's response to teachings of St Birgitta, the dissemination of Birgittine texts, and Lady Margaret Beaufort's role as intermediary between Syon and the outside world.

Pilgrimage to Heaven Eschatology and Monastic Spirituality in Early Medieval Ireland

Church, Censorship and Reform in the Early Modern Habsburg Netherlands

Katja Ritari

Violet Soen, Dries Vanysacker, Wim François (eds)

This book focuses on the expectation of the Judgment and the afterlife in early medieval Irish monastic spirituality. It explores the role of this eschatological expectation in various sources, including hagiography produced by the monastic familia of St Columba, the sermons of St Columbanus, the Navigatio sancti Brendani portraying St Brendan’s sea voyages, and the vision attributed to St Adomnán about Heaven and Hell.

In recent years, historiography has come to rethink the traditional account of a state-backed Counter-Reformation in the early modern Habsburg Netherlands. Hence, this volume takes a refreshing perspective on the themes of church and reform in this region from the late fifteenth century onwards. The first part interrogates the dynamics of repression and censorship in matters of religion. Six chapters underline that this censorship was not only state- or church-driven, but performed by a multitude of actors, ranging from professional organisations to university theologians. Throughout the Ancient Regime, this resulted in an institutionally and regionally fragmented policy, opening margins of manoeuver for those concerned. A second part focuses on more internal impulses for Catholic Reform in the sixteenth century, especially those created by the Council of Trent. As such, this volume helps to contextualise the Counter-Reformation of the seventeenth century in a long-term perspective, identifying the myriad of actors and motives behind this Catholic revival.

Neoplatonism in the Middle Ages New Commentaries on 'Liber de Causis' and 'Elementatio Theologica' Dragos Calma (ed.)

One of the most important texts in the history of medieval philosophy, the Book of Causes was composed in Baghdad in the 9th century mainly from the Arabic translations of Proclus’ Elements of Theology. In the 12th century, it was translated from Arabic into Latin, but its importance in the Latin tradition was not properly studied until now, because only 6 commentaries on it were known. Our exceptional discovery of over 70 unpublished Latin commentaries mainly on the Book of Causes, but also on the Elements of Theology, prove, for the first time, that the two texts where widely disseminated and commented on throughout many European universities (Paris, Oxford, Erfurt, Krakow, Prague), from the 13th to the 16th century. These two volumes provide 14 editions (partial or complete) of the newly-discovered commentaries, and yields, through historical and philosophical analyses, new and essential insights into the influence of Greek and Islamic Neoplatonism in the Latin philosophical traditions. 2 vols, 983 p., 156 x 234 mm, 2016, ISBN 978-2-503-55474-7 Paperback: € 100 Series: Studia Artistarum, vol. 42 Available

It examines medieval notions of harmful speech conduct as reflected in Middle Dutch ecclesiastical, secular-ethical, and legal textual sources. approx. 210 p., 3 b/w ills, 156 x 234 mm, 2017, ISBN 978-2-503-56946-8 Hardback: € 70 Series: Utrecht Studies in Medieval Literacy, vol. 36 Publication scheduled for Summer 2017

Organizing the Written Word

Sébastien Barret, Dominique Stutzmann, Georg Vogeler (eds)

The twenty papers in this collection offer a precise, in-depth analysis of a variety of medieval scripts, including books, charters, accounts, and epigraphic documents. In doing so, they integrate current developments in palaeography, diplomatics, and codicology in their traditional methodological set, as well as aspects of the digital humanities, and they bridge the gap between the so-called ‘auxiliary sciences of history’ and the field of communication studies. viii + 545 p., 100 b/w ills, 18 col. ills, 156 x 234 mm, 2017, ISBN 978-2-503-56743-3 Hardback: € 125 Series: Utrecht Studies in Medieval Literacy, vol. 35

La Renaissance italienne dans les rues du Ghetto L'Œuvre poétique yiddish d'Élia Lévita (1469-1549) Arnaud Bikard

Cet œuvre poétique yiddish constitue une brillante illustration des tendances esthétiques de la Renaissance italienne dans les couches populaires de la société juive au début du XVIe siècle. Par son ampleur et par sa variété, il constitue la première œuvre moderne de la littérature yiddish et aussi un cas particulièrement éclairant sur la diffusion des modèles esthétiques de la Renaissance dans des catégories ethniques et sociales.

Scripts, Manuscripts, and Texts This is a collection of studies into the organisation of written knowledge in the Middle Ages. This volume seeks to enhance our understanding of an important aspect of medieval literacy and of the western literate mentality by addressing some crucial questions.

How Did a Person Become an Authority in Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance?

Verbal and Visual Communiction in Early English Texts Matti Peikola, Aleksi Mäkilähde, Hanna Salmi, Mari-Liisa Varila, Janne Skaffari (eds)

The volume innovatively combines book studies with linguistics to explore the interplay of verbal and visual/material communication in early English manuscripts and printed texts. It investigates how visual and material features of early English books, documents, and other artefacts support – or potentially contradict – the linguistic features in communicating the message. approx. 300 p., 41 b/w ills, 156 x 234 mm, 2017, ISBN 978-2-503-57464-6 Hardback: approx. € 80 Series: Utrecht Studies in Medieval Literacy, vol. 37 Publication scheduled for Autumn 2017

A range of contributions discussing the languages of power in medieval and early modern Italy in terms of politics, art, and religion. The essays in this collection explore the languages – artistic, symbolic, and ritual, as well as written and spoken – in which power was articulated, challenged, contested, and defended in Italian cities and courts, villages, and countryside, between 1300 and 1600. Topics addressed include court ceremonial, gossip and insult, the performance of sanctity and public devotions, the appropriation and reuse of imagery, and the calculated invocation (and sometimes undermining) of authoritative models and figures. The collection balances a broad geographic and chronological range with a tight thematic focus, allowing the individual contributions to engage in vigorous and fruitful debate with one another even as they speak to some of the central issues in current scholarship. The authors recognize that every institutional action is, in its context, a political act, and that no institution operates disinterestedly. At the same time, they insist on the inadequacy of traditional models, whether Marxian or Weberian, as the complex realities of the early modern state pose tough problems for any narrative of modernization, rationalization, and centralization.

Medievalism and Political Rhetoric in Humanist Historiography from the Low Countries (1515-1609) Coen Maas

Through an in-depth analysis of humanist historiography from the Low Countries, this book demonstrates the crucial importance of the Middle Ages for a political rhetoric in which the self-presentation of the historian and the definition of their homeland played a key role.

Editio princeps: A History of the Gutenberg Bible is the first book to tell the whole story of Europe’s first printed edition, describing its creation at Mainz circa 1455, its impact on fifteenth-century life and religion, its fall into oblivion during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, and its rediscovery and rise to worldwide fame during the centuries thereafter.

This work represents an important contribution to the history of medieval books, providing full scholarly description and discussion of an otherwise very little known category of written artefact in quasi-book form, but one that the 60-odd identified examples suggest was relatively common.

Achevé en 1442 par Martin Le Franc, alors secrétaire de l’antipape Félix V (Amédée VIII, duc de Savoie), le poème du Champion des dames est un long plaidoyer en faveur de la cause des femmes. Offert au duc de Bourgogne Philippe le Bon, le livre constitue l’un des jalons importants du débat littéraire connu sous le nom de querelle des femmes, et une défense du concile de Bâle et de ses thèses alors interdites de diffusion dans les territoires bourguignons.

This volume presents ten different studies dealing with the final stages of Hebrew book art production in medieval Iberia. Ranging from the Farhi Codex, copied and illuminated in the late 14th century, to the Philadelphia Bible, copied and illuminated in Lisbon in 1496, this volume discusses a wide scope of topics related with the production, consumption and circulation of medieval decorated Hebrew manuscripts.

L'iconographie du Speculum Virginum Guylène Hidrio

This is the first part of a two-volume catalogue of incunabula (books printed up to 1500) with illumination added by hand, in the Fitzwilliam Museum and the College Libraries of Cambridge. Incunabula research is flourishing in the twenty-first century. Since the turn of the millennium, printed catalogues of globally important collections have been published and online cataloguing projects have transformed knowledge and access. Nevertheless, the c. 2,000 incunabula in Cambridge outside the University Library remain comparatively unknown. A part of the Cambridge Illuminations Research Project, this catalogue examines books at the Fitzwilliam Museum, and the Cambridge Colleges books that were printed in Italy up to 1500 and have illumination and decoration added by hand. Over the two catalogue volumes, the College material constitutes approximately 75% of the coverage of over 400 individual incunabula in total. These collections are extraordinarily rich, and have been built up over the last 500 years through the patronage of late medieval benefactors and scholars, such as Roger Bower (d. 1507) and Thomas Rotherham (1423–1500), as well as that of classical scholars, and through the bequests of eminent British book collectors and bibliophiles from Archbishops Matthew Parker (1504–1575) and William Sancroft (1617–93), to Samuel Pepys (1633–1703), and John Maynard Keynes (1883-1946). The catalogue focuses on books with decoration intended to ornament rather than to rubricate the text, that include one or more of the following elements: miniatures, woodcuts with contemporary colour added by hand, historiated initials and borders, other types of ornamental initials with or without borders, pen-flourished initials, and a variety of drawings or sketches. In bringing to bear on early printed books the same level of attention to the individual features of particular copies, the editors hope to further erode the artificial barriers between those working on illumination in manuscripts and in printed books, and to offer striking evidence of the inter-meshed worlds of manuscript and print in the second half of the fifteenth century. approx. 288 p., 330 col. ills, 230 x 330 mm, 2017, ISBN 978-1-909400-85-6 Hardback: € 175 Series: Illuminated Manuscripts and Incunabula in Cambridge, vol. 5.1 Publication scheduled for Summer 2017

Rédigé par un auteur anonyme, le Speculum Virginum est un traité de spiritualité monastique adressé aux femmes, nombreuses à intégrer les couvents réformés de la première moitié du XIIe siècle. Il consiste principalement en un dialogue fictif entre une jeune nonne au niveau intellectuel élevé et son formateur spirituel. Il apparaît comme une œuvre originale, dont la conception témoigne d’une sorte de parenthèse dans l’histoire monastique. approx. 230 p., 40 col. ills, 156 x 234 mm, 2017, ISBN 978-2-503-56916-1 Paperback: approx. € 75 Série: Répertoire Iconographique de la Littérature du Moyen Age, vol. 5

Alchemy, Medicine, and Commercial Book Production A Codicological and Linguistic Study of the Voigts-Sloane Group of Middle English Manuscripts Alpo Honkapohja

This is an innovative study bringing together the intellectual and material traditions of England’s early press. It offers a new intellectual framework for early print that bridges divisions between the study of print and the study of literature, between manuscripts and printed books, and between pre- and post-1500 textual cultures.

This is a detailed codicological and historical linguistic analysis of the Voigts-Sloane Group of medical and alchemical manuscripts in the context of commercial production of manuscript books in the decades leading up to the printing press. This study thus provides both a comprehensive new description of these manuscripts, and sheds new light on the commercial and cultural contexts of book production in late medieval England.

Des acteurs du pouvoir Alain Marchandisse, Monique Maillard-Luypaert, Bertrand Schnerb (éd.)

Une enquête poussée sur les traditions figuratives, interprétatives et sur la popularité de l'un des mythes les plus instrumentalisés dans l'Europe de la Renaissance. L'âge d'or est l’un des mythes les plus répandus et les plus prégnants dans l'imaginaire collectif occidental. Cet ouvrage ambitionne, en en retraçant les évolutions successives, de mieux comprendre et de mettre en lumière la popularité dont il a joui dans la culture visuelle de la Renaissance.

Le volume s'adresse à un public international de spécialistes des disciplines auxquelles ressor tissent les divers articles - histoire dans ses diverses formes, histoire de l'art. Il offre une vision d'ensemble, fondée sur un ensemble de cas, d'un phénomène qui n'est pas propre au bas Moyen Âge et à la Renaissance, mais qui s'y développe tout particulièrement.

In 1334, an Italian priest named Opicinus de Canistris fell ill and experienced a divine vision of continents and oceans transformed into human figures, a vision which inspired numerous drawings. While they relate closely to contemporary maps and seacharts, religious iconography, medical illustration, and cosmological diagrams, Opicinus’s drawings cannot be assimilated to any of these categories. In their beautiful strangeness they complicate many of our assumptions about medieval visual culture, and spark lines of inquiry into the interplay of religion and science, the practice of experimentation, the operations of allegory in the fourteenth century, and ultimately into the status of representation itself. approx. xii + 212 p., 45 col. ills, 205 x 255 mm, 2016, ISBN 978-0-88844-426-4 Paperback: € 45 Series: Studies and Texts, vol. 186 Available

Paul Binsky, in: The Art Newspaper, December 2016

This volume, the first to appear in a series of Studies in English Medieval Embroidery, contains the papers delivered at a Symposium held at the Victoria and Albert Museum in London in February 2013, which was designed to re-vitalize research and public awareness of a significant medium of medieval art. During the period which has become known as the great age of Opus Anglicanum between c.1200 and 1400, kings, popes and high ranking prelates all over Europe vied with each other in their desire to own English medieval embroidery. Such vestments were first mentioned as ‘English Work’ (Opus Anglicanum) in the papal archives because of their distinctive style rather than their technique – although most also display skilful use of gold embroidery in what is known as ‘underside couching’, a method of embroidering silver-gilt thread so that it is both pliable and displays the maximum amount of thread on the surface of the garment. The imagery achieved in this special medium is comparable with the luxurious illuminated manuscripts produced in England during the Middle Ages and forms a repository of some unique iconography. The essays included here break new ground in the understanding of both liturgical and secular embroidery, covering topics such as interesting iconographic aspects found in Opus Anglicanum; hitherto unpublished data from the royal accounts of Edward III related to commissions and payments to embroiderers and embroideresses; and a detailed study of late medieval English palls accompanied by a Handlist of the major extant examples. Of particular importance is the inclusion of the Evelyn Thomas Collection of pre-digital images of Opus Anglicanum work, now digitized in its entirety at the Princeton Index of Christian Art. The wealth of illustrations in this volume – over 200 images and comparative material from other forms of medieval art – are all in full colour. Dr M.A. Michael is a professorial Fellow of the University of Glasgow and Academic Director at Christie's Education. He has published widely on English medieval manuscripts, stained glass and panel painting. 240 p., 5 b/w ills, 185 col. ills, 225 x 300 mm, 2016, ISBN 978-1-909400-41-2 Hardback: € 110 Series: Studies in English Medieval Embroidery, vol. 1 Available

The work demonstrates the real interest in an approach to finishing work for the study of ancient buildings and the establishment of a precise chronology for their phases of layout. It also reiterates that the limit between carpentry and joinery was often porous, sometimes artificial. Finally, it stresses that an overall approach to the use of wood is crucial to comprehensively address the organisation of a building.

Regards croisés sur la chapelle du château de Ponthoz et l’église de Bois Ilona Hans - Collas (éd.)

D’une même main combine résultats scientifiques et pistes de réflexion pour offrir une toute nouvelle vision de la production picturale du XVe siècle liégeois. 430 p., 230 x 290 mm, 2016, ISBN 978-2-930054-27-8 Paperback: € 60 Series: Scientia Artis, vol. 11 Available

The transatlantic art dealer, René Gimpel (18811945), maintained an interwar journal for twenty-one years until, like many Jews in France, he was overtaken by radical political events. In this book, Diana Kostyrko explores why Gimpel's journal should be taken seriously as a sociohistorical document. In contextualising the journal, including its reception since first published in 1963, she intercuts art history with material culture and a sociology of modernity. Firstly setting the art dealer in context, the author examines the dominant themes which thread through the journal ‑ ranging from the escalation in power and status of European dealers catering to but also rivalling wealthy private collectors, to the irresistible pressure of twentieth-century modernity on collecting practices. For all those who are concerned with the European formulation of taste in the fine and decorative arts in the early twentieth century, the trend for eighteenth-century revivalism in France and North America, the acculturation of American museums, and the rise to stardom

of the modern art market on the back of the auction house will find much of value here. Overall the author undertakes to distil what René Gimpel's legacy might be. Finally, she asks: was the Paris art dealer incongruously but ultimately a prophet concerned with the over-materiality of modern society, and a cultural pessimist to boot: or did he merely reflect a range of common perceptions abroad at the time? Dr Diana J. Kostyrko is an art historian and provenance researcher, and a visiting fellow in cultural history with the School of Literature, Languages and Linguistics at the Australian National University.

Music Cipriano de Rore

The Sixteenth-Century Trombone

New Perspectives on his Life and Music

Dimensions, Materials, and Techniques

Jessie Ann Owens, Katelijne Schiltz (eds)

Hannes William Vereecke

To mark the 500th anniversary of his birth (1515 or 1516), we offer these new perspectives on the life and music of this major figure in Renaissance music.

The growing interest in the performance of music of the sixteenth century has created an increasing demand for accurate reproductions of period trombones. This book provides a comprehensive picture of the physical characteristics of the sixteenth-century trombone by means of an in-depth acoustical, geometrical and metallurgical analysis of all surviving trombones made in sixteenth-century Nuremberg.

Zwischen Kanon und Geschichte Josquin im Deutschland des 16. Jahrhunderts Michael Meyer

The present study investigates the German speaking areas where the reception of Josquin was enormously rich. The sources led to an outline by 'reception paradigms'. These paradigms – canonisation, heroisation, literarisation and historicisation – reveal the rootage of Josquin's reception in 16th century cultural history and point especially to the importance of humanistic circles for the estimation of musical authorship and polyphonic art music.Texts in German.

Giovanni Gabrieli Transmission and Reception of a Venetian Musical Tradition Rodolfo Baroncini, David Douglas Bryant, Luigi Collarile (eds)

Knowledge and debate in the field of sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century Venetian music has greatly benefitted in recent decades from studies of major institutions, composers, repertories and sources, as also from investigations of the quantitative aspects of musical life in what was one of the largest, richest and most commercially oriented cities on the Italian peninsula: the Venetian musical phenomenon includes, on the one hand, regular or sporadic musical activities in the city’s many churches and private palaces (activities which provided significant earnings for large numbers of musicians, whether or not salaried members of the ducal cappella) and, on the other, the auxiliary trades of music printing and instrument making. The transmission of the musical repertories has also received notable attention: in particular, the contemporary and later reception of Venetian musical repertories in different political, linguistic and/or confessional areas. Central, too, have been questions of ‘sound’, both with regard to the particular interaction between musical composition, the spatial peculiarities and the specific liturgical and ceremonial traditions of the Venetian ducal chapel, and in the context of music-making at large. This collection of essays on the life, times and works of a composer who ranks among the most outstanding musical personalities of his day variously unites these strands in an albeit partial attempt to interpret Giovanni Gabrieli’s output and activities in their Venetian context and, at the same time, cast light on their broader historiographical significance: on the one hand Gabrieli as point of synthesis of a complex Venetian musical tradition, on the other his interaction with and impact on contemporary musical life, his influence on later generations of composers both at home and abroad, the rediscovery of his achievements by nineteenth- and twentieth-century historians and performers, the revisitations of his music by twentieth-century composers.

Renaissance Music and Culture in Croatia Ennio Stipcevic

This book is the first more comprehensive effort dedicated to the interdisciplinary study of Renaissance music in Croatia. This book focuses on identifying, contextualising and presenting this less known European musical heritage to the wider international public.

This book challenges existing notions of an idiosyncratic 'Celtic Rite' through a multidisciplinary, European perspective and opens up discussion on the liturgical music of medieval Ireland by approaching it from a multidisciplinary, European perspective. The contributors represent a variety of specialisms, including musicology, liturgiology, palaeography, hagiology, theology, church history, Celtic studies, French studies, and Latin.

Interlacing Traditions Sacri concerti Studi sul mottetto a Venezia nel secondo Seicento Luigi Collarile

The motet productions of Natale Monferrato (1610– 1685), Giovanni Legrenzi (1626–1690) and Giovanni Domenico Partenio (1633–1701) provide the focus for this study. Together they represent an important research field, capable of illustrating the role and potential of the motet as a musical genre unfettered by specific liturgical functions in the perspective of the complex urban and devotional ritual of early modern Venice. approx. 240 p., 54 b/w ills, 216 x 280 mm, 2017, ISBN 978-2-503-57496-7 Paperback: approx. € 80 Series: Venetian Music Studies, vol. 2 Publication scheduled for Summer 2017

This book is the first comprehensive study of the neo-Gregorian chants for the Proper of the Mass that circulated in the Beneventan region between the tenth and the thirteenth centuries. This extensive repertory demonstrates in extraordinary ways the struggles of local cantors to mediate between conformity to a standardized liturgy pursued by the Carolingians and the papacy, and a desire to maintain elements of the local musical culture. xxxii + 444 p., 7 b/w ills, 10 col. ills, 150 x 230 mm, 2017, ISBN 978-0-88844-205-5 Hardback: € 105 Series: Studies and Texts, vol. 205 Available
