‎Summary Comment les Romains parlaient-ils du mariage ? Cette question a t pos e vingt et un sp cialistes de litt rature latine archa que, classique, post-classique et tardive dans le but de comparer la rh torique discursive des Romains propos d'une institution qui occupe une place de choix dans la soci t . Ce volume collectif offre des analyses du motif du mariage tel qu'il est trait dans les textes litt raires et juridiques, au prisme de genres vari s (com die, d clamation, l gie, pigramme, genre pistolaire, pop e, historiographie, po sie pidictique, satire, trag die, textes patristiques, trait s philosophiques), mais au-del de l' pithalame, c'est- -dire en dehors ou la fronti re de ces discours de circonstance tr s tudi s depuis vingt ans, tout en tenant compte de leur apport rh torique, po tique et id ologique. Si le mariage est avant tout pour les Romains un moyen de perp tuer par cette alliance une lign e et d'accro tre le corps civique, sa repr sentation est plurielle. Elle se montre en constante interaction avec le projet litt raire propre chaque auteur, le genre qui la v hicule, les mod les suivis ou encore le contexte socio-politique, religieux et juridique de l' poque de production du texte. De ces tudes vari es merge une vision d'ensemble diachronique sur les permanences et volutions de la pens e et du discours romains propos de la notion de couple, des relations entre poux, du r le de la femme, de la place des enfants, de la part de l' ros conjugal et des sentiments dans le mariage.

‎Poetry, Art, and Music in Guillaume de Machaut's Earliest Manuscript (BnF fr. 1586)‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Paperback, 476 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:119 col., 22 tables b/w., 1 maps b/w, 18 musical examples, Language: English. ISBN 9782503586915.‎

‎Summary Around the middle of a career lasting over forty years, Guillaume de Machaut (c.1300-77) was afforded an outstanding opportunity to present his oeuvre in a book. The occasion arose in the late 1340s, when a special manuscript was commissioned, perhaps by Queen Jeanne de Bourgogne, for the first time collecting all of Machaut's works, including narrative poems, lyrical poems, musical settings of lyrics, and motets. The manuscript would celebrate Bonne of Luxembourg, the wife of a future king of France. Only the royal treasury could have funded the extraordinary team of craftsmen involved in its production - from the careful preparation of fine parchment, to the calligraphy and ornament of the text, to the carefully copied innovative ars nova musical notation, to the miniatures painted in a shop directed by one of the greatest illuminators in France. Then Bonne died of the Black Death in 1349, just before the manuscript was completed. It would be finished for her son, the future King Charles the Wise. Although Machaut would go on to supervise other manuscripts, none were so luxuriously executed as his first complete-works manuscript (Paris, Biblioth que nationale de France, fr. 1586), known today as Machaut MS C. The present volume, the first dedicated entirely to MS C, offers a multidisciplinary collection of essays written by fourteen leading scholars, who provide innovative approaches to literary, musical, art-historical, and manuscript studies. It is replete with images, including over sixty colour reproductions from MS C itself.

‎THE PAINTINGS OF HENDRICK GOLTZIUS (1558 - 1617) A Monograph and Catalogue Raisonne.‎

‎, Davaco, 2013 Cloth bound with dust jacket, 4to. 466 pp. text, 207 plates and ills. (145 in colour). NEW. ISBN 9789070288281.‎

‎This long-awaited volume is a comprehensive study of the paintings of Hendrick Goltzius (1558-1617), the most important artist in the Netherlands at the turn of the seventeenth century. A poem published in Haarlem in 1617 lamented the death that year of the most artful master Hendrick Goltzius, in his life [a] skillful painter, draftsman, and artful engraver. The fact that "painter" heads the list of his accomplishments is significant, for although Goltzius enjoyed international fame as a draughtsman and engraver, to his contemporaries he was equally renowned for his skill in the art of painting, which was considered the highest artistic calling. This volume on his paintings, the first since Hirschmann's short study of 1916, finally completes a full assessment of this artist of Haarlem, whose drawings were the subject of Reznicek's publication of 1961 and whose prints were catalogued by Leesberg in the New Hollstein series that appeared in 2012. Goltzius abandoned his engraver's burin and turned to painting in the year 1600. Exploring the new medium, he worked on small coppers, as well as large canvases and panels. Goltzius's determination to work in oil, after acquiring international fame as a printmaker, was a deliberate decision to embrace an even greater challenge and to seek greater recognition for his artistry. Although archival records show that Goltzius painted more portraits than has previously been assumed, it was the depiction of the human nude that was his primary goal. He mostly chose to paint biblical and mythological themes: the same subject matter, in fact, that he had treated in his engraved histories. The difference, however, was that Goltzius now began to paint figures that were nearly life-size. His manner of depicting figures may be considered an extension of what he had learned during his stay in Rome (1590-91) and subsequently pursued in his prints of the 1590s. Only rarely are traces of his Spranger-inspired, anti-classical past encountered in his paintings. Instead, Goltzius strove with his brush to portray human forms at once idealized and naturalistic. His points of departure were antique Roman sculpture, the sixteenth-century masters - Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian, Veronese, Durer, and Van Heemskerck - and Rubens, his contemporary. Four chapters are dedicated to a consideration of the reasons for Goltzius's conversion to painting, his biography in the years 1600 to 1617, an examination of the style and iconography of his works in oil, and a thorough review of the critical appraisal of his paintings from his day to the present. The extensive catalogue discusses 59 paintings by Goltzius, and also includes 160 pictures known only from descriptions and 38 rejected works. A lengthy appendix - the result of extensive archival research - includes, in the original language, all known sources that mention Goltzius and every known inventory listing of his paintings.The catalogue of accepted works is ordered iconographically, whereas the color plates of Goltzius's entire extant oeuvre are arranged in chronological order, visually demonstrating the development of his career as a painter. In addition to the color plates, 121 black-and-white figures provide material for comparison. A complete bibliography and three indexes enhance the accessibility and usefulness of this volume.‎
