‎latin et la litt rature n o-latine au XIXe si cle. Pratiques et repr sentations‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Paperback, v + 299 pages, Size:160 x 240 mm, Languages: French, English, Italian. ISBN 9789492771322.‎

‎Summary Le XIXe si cle est connu comme l' poque o l'essor des nationalismes et des langues nationales en Europe a d finitivement rel gu le latin aux marges du monde social. Or, si le latin conna t alors un ind niable d clin, il n'en demeure pas moins tout un temps une langue importante pour les nations modernes. Le pr sent volume tudie les manifestations d'une tradition linguistique pluris culaire qui ne s'est pas teinte l'aube de la modernit . Fruit d'une collaboration internationale, il rassemble des contributions portant sur diff rents pays d'Europe occidentale et centrale. Les auteurs retracent l'histoire du latin au XIXe si cle, s'interrogent aussi bien sur les raisons de son succ s que sur celles de son d clin et pr tent une attention particuli re aux aspects th matiques et stylistiques des textes. La litt rature n o-latine, qui n'est pas indiff rente au surgissement des romantismes europ ens, est pass e la loupe. L'ouvrage met galement en vidence l'inflexion que l'inspiration latine antique a pu donner une oeuvre po tique en langue moderne. TABLE OF CONTENTS Christophe Bertiau, "Le latin, une mati re ?bourgeoise?? Sur le d clin du latin dans l'enseignement l' poque contemporaine" The article refutes the received idea of Latin being a "bourgeois" school subject. It states on the contrary that the political and economic rise of the bourgeoisie accounts for the decline of Latin in secondary education during the last two centuries. Although Latin kept its dominant position in the curriculums throughout the nineteenth century, its supremacy was increasingly challenged by certain exponents of the bourgeoisie, who demanded school learning to be more markedly connected to the professional world. Jan Spoelder, "The decline of Latin as the academic language at Dutch universities and its consequences for education in Latin" In the eighteenth century, Latin lost its status as the universal scholarly language in countries like France, Germany and Britain. However, the Royal Decree of 1815 provided that Latin remained the exclusive academic language in the Kingdom of the Netherlands. More and more tension arose between maintaining classical educational ideals and the with to use the vernacular. Only when the Act on Higher Education was passed in 1876, this meant in practice the end of the mandatory use of Latin at Dutch universities. This new situation also ended the raison d' tre of the Latin school, the kind of education that had prepared for university entrance in the towns of the Dutch Republic and the later Kingdom. This type of school was reorganised to meet the altered requirements of the modern time under the name of Gymnasium. This school, with compulsory Greek and Latin, is still flourishing magnificently at the moment. Patrizia Paradisi, "Il latino nelle cerimonie ufficiali del Regno d'Italia, dall'Universit di Bologna al Campidoglio a Roma (Gandino, Albini e Pascoli)" Patrizia Paradisi stresses the significance Latin displayed for the official ceremonies of the Kingdom of Italy at the time of Giovanni Battista Gandino, Giuseppe Albini and Giovanni Pascoli. It thus appears how Latin was used to compose speeches, letters, an inscription for a medal, a hymn or a journal on the occasion of various ceremonies. Giacomo Dalla Piet , "L'evoluzione stilistica del latino all'interno della curia romana nel secolo XIX" Giacomo Dalla Piet sketches how the Latin style of encyclical letters developed during the nineteenth century. He interprets the adoption of a high style, which was to become increasingly Ciceronian, under the pontificate of Leo XIII as testament to the latter's universalist project and new way of conceiving papacy. ?ime Demo, "Stubborn persistence at the outskirts of the West: Latin in nineteenth-century Croatia" The article gives an insight into the status of Latin in nineteenth-century Croatia. Latin retained there until the mid-century a decided importance as a means of international communication, as a political instrument, as a medium of instruction or as a literary language. However, Croatian tended towards more and more superseding Latin in its uses. As a result, Latin was hardly ever used outside Church and education in the second half of the century. Neven Jovanovi?, "Two gentlemen-translators from nineteenth-century Dubrovnik" The author analyses the Latin translations of Antonio Sivrich and Blasius Ghetaldi, two poets from Dubrovnik. He compares how both translators worked and reflects upon the reasons why they rendered into Latin Italian sonnets and anacreontic poems (Sivrich) or Ivan Gunduli?'s Croatian epos Osman (Ghetaldi). Svorad Zavarsk , "?Et meus vere paradisus audit: mandra, poesis?: The poetry of Antonius Faber" Svorad Zavarsk presents the work of the neo-Latin poet from Bratislava Antonius Faber. He affirms that the main interest of A.?Faber's little classical poetry is its originality. This poetry can be seen as a compromise between traditional neo-Latin poetry and the romantic revival. It epitomises quite good the linguistic situation of Hungary at that time, where the national language was more and more often preferred to Latin. Florian Schaffenrath, "Antonio Mazzetti's neo-Latin epic poem on Emperor Ferdinand I (1838)" Florian Schaffenrath tackles a panegyric (gratulatio) addressed by Antonio Mazzetti to Emperor Ferdinand?I and examines its reception. He highlights the enthusiasm this poem motivated by current political affairs elicited, even though Latin verses no longer were in fashion. Antonino Zumbo, "Scrivere una novella romantica in versi latini: il Polymetron di Giovanni Andrea Vinacci" The article deals with the Polymetron, a romantic short story written in Latin verses by Andrea Vinacci. The story displays a Byronian inspiration and is located in the nineteenth-century Italian independence wars. Both these characteristics suggest that far from a mere formal dialogue with the Ancients has neo-Latin literature always attempted to stay in tune with its time. Romain Jalabert, "Des vers latins romantiques, en France" Romain Jalabert shows that a whole part of nineteenth-century French neo-Latin poetry was opened up to Romanticism. Original Latin poems inspired by Romanticism and Latin translations of poems in modern languages were no oddities. Schools played a leading role in this new tendency. Alphonse de Lamartine enjoyed great success as a source of inspiration for Latin poets. Dirk Sacr , "Colonel William Siddons Young (1832-1901) as a Latin poet" Dirk Sacr presents the life and work of the atypical British neo-Latin poet Colonel William Siddons Young (1832-1901). Young was an army officer in the Bengal civil service. Although some Latinists considered him as the greatest living Latin poet, his Latin verses display imperfections and he rapidly fell into oblivion after his death. But because of his atypical profile, he could serve the cause of Latin as a universal language. Through the figure of Young, this article provides us with an overview of the evolution of living Latin in the late nineteenth century. Marie-France David-de Palacio, "Un epigrammaton liber fin-de-sie cle: les ?latineries? de Jean Richepin" This contribution demonstrates on the basis of Jean Richepin's "Latineries" how a writer can breath new life into his own poetic language by imitating ancient authors. Whereas the style models on the epigrams of Roman Antiquity, and more specifically of Martial, the content exhibits a "Gallic" character.‎

‎Gen ses antiques et m di vales de la foi‎

‎, Brepols - Institut d'Etudes Augustiniennes, 2020 Paperback, 452 pages, Size:165 x 250 mm, Language: French. ISBN 9782851213044.‎

‎Summary This book collects papers presented at two multi-disciplinary gatherings which sought to examine concepts belonging to the semantic field of religious belief. The collection sets out from the observation that the relevant terms are ambiguous and equivocal, and indeed that this ambiguity persists in the scholarly literature in the humanities. It is therefore important to historicise these terms adequately and to clarify their development and transformation over time. This involves a sustained engagement with key discourses - logic, history of religion, epistemology, political history - of significant intellectual heterogeneity. Platonism fundamentally informs classical and patristic Christian reflections as well as the thought of their medieval heirs. It carries with it a tension between 'opinion' and supra-rational certitude which is exploited by Christian thinkers up to and including scholastic theologians. These thinkers insist above all on the existential dimension of a certitude which seeks to establish a privileged link with the divine. It involves the attempt to harmonise the ritual and social aspects of religious practice with the individual urge towards transcendence, a quest which has been bequeathed to modernity and still largely defines the nature of contemporary Western social engagement with religion. Issu de deux colloques pluridisciplinaires qui se proposaient d' tudier les notions relevant du champ s mantique de la croyance religieuse, ce volume part du constat que ces termes sont le plus souvent quivoques, ce qui p se encore sur les recherches en sciences sociales. Il fallait rendre ces concepts leur historicit , et montrer comment la notion de foi se constitue progressivement au cours d'une histoire qui est faite d'allers et retours entre des champs intellectuels h t rog nes (de la logique la religion, et de l' pist mologie la politique). Le platonisme innerve largement les r flexions du christianisme grec et romain, puis m di val. Il porte une tension entre l'opinion et la certitude supra-rationnelle, qui est exploit e par les penseurs chr tiens, jusqu'aux th ologiens scolastiques, pour insister notamment sur la dimension existentielle d'une certitude qui institue un lien privil gi avec le divin. Il s'agit de concilier la dimension communautaire et rituelle de la pratique religieuse et la tension individuelle vers la transcendance, qui est transmise la modernit et d finit encore largement le rapport au religieux dans nos soci t s.

‎Geert Bekaert (1928) is de meest productieve en gezaghebbende architectuurcriticus uit de twintigste eeuw in het Nederlandse taalgebied. Tegelijkertijd is hij een van de meest literaire publicisten. Tussen 2008 en 2012 werd, met steun van de Vlaamse Gemeenschap, zijn verzameld werk (10 delen, ca. 1500 teksten) uitgegeven. Dit boek, een herwerking van een doctoraatsproefschrift, is de allereerste grondige studie van zijn geschriften, zijn aanpak en zijn thema?s. Door de brede interesse en methode van Bekaert, en door de gerichte thematische analyse van Van Gerrewey, biedt het tegelijk een overzicht op de debatten en de onderwerpen binnen de Belgische, Nederlandse en Europese architectuurcultuur sinds 1950. Van Gerrewey heeft daarvoor een opeenvolging opgesteld van zes thema?s: religie, wonen, maatschappij, geschiedenis, stad en cultuur. Deze onderwerpen worden besproken aan de hand van de teksten van Bekaert, en aan de hand van het werk van binnenlandse en buitenlandse architecten dat er het onderwerp van was. Met illustraties uit de diacollectie van Bekaert en een geselecteerde bibliografie van zijn publicaties. Inhoud: 0. Geestelijke oefeningen: Een lees- en schrijfwijzer. 1.

‎Labyrinth takes us on a walk through the spaces constructed within the pages of the book and visualises a world in which the exit can?t be found. With the morphology of the house (windows, doors, steps and curtains) and the theatre (curtains, stage, perspective), a world is evoked in which nothing can serve as a point of reference. The experience is similar to surfing on the internet, scrolling through instagram, unfolding the gallery map of Art Brussels or shopping in a French supermarket. All images in the book are woodcuts. Christophe Van Gerrewey has written a text that actually creates an imbroglio. The entire book is printed in letterpress. The book launch coincides with the screening of Demoen?s film Papers, books and bolero, on view at Kunsthal Gent. Book launch at Kunsthal on 7 Feb 2020.‎

‎When is a work of art finished, done, terminated? In this essay, Christophe Van Gerrewey suggests that the incompleteness of art mirrors the un de-cidability of the world, about which the last word hasn't been said yet either. An artwork can be unfinished in seven ways: it is completed by the audience, it suggests a better world, the artist can't leave it behind, it is a collective process, it reflects modesty, it is too utopian (for the time being), or its value has yet to be discovered.‎

‎?It is as if the images in this book close their eyes and immediately transform each other into a little impression we can take with us to the next page. And so, as we read the book, we take each individual image with us. Because the book is arranged in three parts, we feel we are getting closer and closer to the core, and to the truth; the more naked, the thinner and sharper the images become, the closer we come to the essence. Or is it the other way round? And once we are beyond the halfway point, we go through the same process all over again in the other direction. Perhaps every page of Exactly how I remembered it contains the same image, one that we change ? by looking, reading, turning the pages and remembering ? into another lie.? From: ?Images to take away?

‎Hardcover with dusjacket, 142 pages, Illustrated. English text. fine. / Vol. 2. 56 - 130 ISBN 9783863359256. In 2002, architects and fellow students David Van Severen, who worked at Neutelings Riedijk Architects, and Kersten Geers, started working for Stéphane Beel and Xaveer de Geyter, the OFFICE architect firm Kersten Geers, David Van Severen. One of their first designs, OFFICE 2: Entrance was for a notary in Antwerp. In the early days the duo started a collaboration with photographer Bas Princen to turn off the visual style of the office. In 2005, the agency designed OFFICE 15: Border Crossing to mark the architectural competition "Build the Border Wall". As an alternative idea for a border crossing between the United States of America and Mexico, they draw a garden that is walled with white, nine-meter high walls. Inside the walls are palm trees planted in a grid and pavilions for passport control and administration. The design is awarded the first prize. OFFICE Kersten Geers In 2007 David Van Severen designed the Handelsbeurs bridge on the Kouter in Ghent. The bridge runs over the Ketelvaart and connects the terrace of the Handelsbeurs with the Ketelvest. For this design, the office was awarded the Belgian Architecture Prize in 2009 in the Public Space category. For the 2008 Architecture Biennial in Venice, OFFICE designed the Belgian pavilion. With After the Party (1907-2007) the agency brought an ode to the Belgian pavilion that had turned 100 years ago, but had not had a party. Two years later, OFFICE received the Silver Lion in Venice for the most promising young architects. In 2014, the architectural office was declared the winner of an architectural competition for the new building of the Swiss French-speaking broadcaster Radio Télévision Suisse. The new broadcasting building will be located in the city of Lausanne on the campus of the Technical University and Université de Lausanne. OFFICE appears in October 2014 on a shortlist of five teams for the design of the new VRT building. In 2015, an episode of the Reyers 2020 Canvas series will be dedicated to the agency and their design. Ultimately, the Robbrecht & Daem architectural firm wins the competition. In 2016, OFFICE was appointed as the curator of the Biennale Interieur in Kortrijk. That year there is an exhibition on the work of OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen from March to May in the Brussels museum BOZAR. The retrospective exhibition Everything Architecture shows models and drawings together with artworks that are related to the style and idea of the office.‎

‎Parmi les artistes romantiques de l'Europe de la fin du XVIIIe si cle, Johann Heinrich F ssli (1741-1825) est une figure remarquable : n Zurich, profond ment marqu par son voyage Rome, il finit par d velopper Londres une ?uvre o inspiration litt raire et visions fantastiques ont t combin s. travers une soixantaine d'?uvres, dont des peintures et des dessins issus de prestigieuses collections publiques et priv es en France et l' tranger, l'exposition du mus e Jacquemart-Andr interroge l'approche de l'artiste sur ces diff rentes th matiques.

‎Orthodox Christianity and Modern Science: Theological, Philosophical, Scientific and Historical Aspects of the Dialogue‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, 186 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9782503592671.‎

‎Summary Orthodox Christian theology is based on a living tradition that is deeply rooted in Greek Patristic thought. However, few systematic proposals about how this theology can respond to questions that arise from modern science have yet appeared. This volume, consisting of eleven essays by different authors about how this response should be formulated, therefore represents a significant contribution to Orthodox thinking as well as to the broader science-theology dialogue among Christians. The variety of approaches in the essays indicates that there does not yet exist among Orthodox a consensus about the methodology that is appropriate to this dialogue or about how the questions that arise from specific scientific insights should be answered. Nevertheless, they indicate the ways in which Orthodox approaches to science differ significantly from most of those to be found among Western Christian scholars, and in this way they point to an underlying unity of perspective that is rooted in the Orthodox tradition.
