‎Byzantine Attica. An Archaeology of Settlement and Landscape (4th-12th Centuries)‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, 664 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:90 b/w, 106 col., 11 maps color, Language: English. ISBN 9782503611204.‎

‎Summary Attica, the region which surrounds Athens (Greece) is a key area for understanding the transformation of the ancient Roman world to its Medieval successor in the eastern Mediterranean. Located at a crossroads for land and maritime communications, being well populated, carrying a thorough administrative organization and a heavy cultural and religious tradition, the region participated in the broader historic evolutions from the 4th to the 12th centuries. Moreover, Attica stands out in contemporary historic and archaeological research due to its very intensive field research, starting in the 19th century and culminating since the 1960s, through rescue excavation and systematic studies. The outcome of this multi-faceted research on field and monuments which concerns the 4th to 12th centuries forms the backbone of the present volume. Stepping beyond this compilation, however, this study proceeds into being a synthesis of evidence on settlement patterns, road communications, defensive works, religious activities and burial habits. These topics are underpinned by aspects which belong to the longue dur e, geography and the natural environment, which are considered as crucial to the understanding of the Byzantine history. In short, the present book covers as many aspects of the studied area as possible, aiming to show the potential of regional studies for the history and archaeology of Late Antiquity and Byzantium. TABLE OF CONTENTS Preface Foreword & Acknowledgements Introduction Part I: Byzantine Attica: the geography, the history and earlier studies Chapter I - Attica: a landscape surrounded by the sea General geography of Attica Natural environment and resources Chapter II - Attica in Byzantine history 'Attica' as a region in Byzantine sources The history and administrative status of Byzantine Attica Historical sources on Byzantine Attica Chapter III - Byzantine Attica: earlier research Archaeological excavations of Early and Middle Byzantine Attica Studies on Byzantine churches in Attica Field surveys and Byzantine finds Research on the topography of Byzantine Attica Toponyms in Byzantine Attica Chapter IV - Land routes and maritime communication in Byzantine Attica Introduction The evidence of the 'Tabula Peutingeriana' Land routes: topographic and archaeological evidence Byzantine Megarid: a forgotten hub of interregional communications Ports and anchorages in Byzantine Attica Part II: Byzantine Attica: the archaeology of human activity Chapter V - Attica in the Late Roman & Early Byzantine period (4th to mid-7th c.)

‎Kunstenares Ellen Marie grijpt terug naar de ambachtelijkheid van oude meesters. Dat leerde ze niet aan de Willem De Kooning Academie waar ze eerst studeerde, maar aan de Barcelona Academy of Art, waar ze traditionele teken- en schildertechnieken kreeg onderwezen. Nu heeft ze een eigen studio in Barcelona en geeft ze er les aan de Academy. Lux Aeterna, 'Eeuwig Licht' is een reeks van 57 schilderijen waarin ze het proces volgt van een dansende man op weg naar zelfverwezenlijking, de hoogste der menselijke behoeften. In het eerste deel treffen we hem aan kronkelend van zielenpijn, getormenteerd doordat een blinddoek hem belet het licht dat hem omringt, waar te nemen. In deel twee valt de blinddoek af en komt er geleidelijk een dans op gang. Er ontstaat een dialoog tussen het licht dat op zijn lichaam valt en het onzichtbare licht, de levenskracht die van binnenuit opwelt, eerst ingetogen daarna steeds woester. In het derde deel spatten de klodders verf van het doek. De vorm valt meer en meer uit elkaar en transmuteert tot een onherkenbare massa waarin nog slechts de suggestie van een figuur zit. In het vierde deel ten slotte, vindt de man na een lange eenzame tocht verwantschap bij gelijkgestemde zielen die baden in het goddelijke licht. Dit verhaal verbeeldt de innerlijke zoektocht van de kunstenares naar Waarheid, Licht en Vrijheid. Kunstrecensent Koen Van Damme (The Art Couch) schreef vijf gedichten bij dit bijzondere werk.‎

‎Typical Venice? The Art of Commodities 13th-16th Centuries. ,‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller 2020, 2020 Hardcover, . iv + 268 p., 70 col. ills , 220 x 280 mm, English, FINE ISBN 9781912554300.‎

‎What is the art of commodities, and how does it contribute to shaping a city? The case of Venice, which perhaps more than any other late medieval or early modern city depended on trade, offers some widely applicable considerations in response to these questions. Commodities exist as such only when they can be bought and sold. Select materials, techniques and tools, motifs, and working processes are entailed in the conception and realization of commodities, with the aim of producing and selling in numbers. The art of commodities is an art of anticipation and organization, as complex as the material, social, and symbolic situations it results from, deals with, and contributes to shaping. In turn, an analysis of commodities allows for profound insights in these situations. The art of commodities ultimately presents specific challenges, solutions, and styles; it is an art of objects, as well as an art of cities and societies. In Venice, commodities did much more than circulate throughout the Lagoon: the city was made of them. The studies in this book consider the Serenissima?s diverse commodities, merchants, and routes from multiple perspectives. Ella Beaucamp is a doctoral candidate at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit t M nchen, where she developed her dissertation topic within the research group ?Premodern Objects. An Archaeology of Experience?, led by Philippe Cordez. She studies the high medieval stone reliefs of Venetian house facades, relating them to the larger context of Mediterranean trade and artistic production. The Centro Tedesco di Studi Veneziani, the Gerda Henkel Stiftung, and the Max Weber Foundation ? German Humanities Institutes Abroad have supported her work. For her master?s thesis she was the recipient of the Heinrich W lfflin Prize from Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit t M nchen. Philippe Cordez is Deputy Director of the German Center for Art History in Paris. His research and teaching deal with medieval art history and more generally with object studies in art history. This work has been supported by the cole des Hautes tudes en Sciences Sociales in Paris, the Universit t Hamburg, the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florenz ? Max-Planck-Institut, Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit t M nchen, the Universit de Montr al, and the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute, Williamstown. His book Treasure, Memory, Nature: Church Objects in the Middle Ages, translated from French and awarded the Prize of the German Medievalists? Society (Medi vistenverband e.V.), is available at Harvey Miller Publishers.‎
