‎Crusader Rhetoric and the Infancy Cycles on Medieval Baptismal Fonts in the Baltic Region‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 492 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:448 col., 8 tables b/w., 7 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503599380.‎

‎Summary This is the first comprehensive, interdisciplinary analysis to demonstrate that the representation of Infancy cycles on twelfth-and-thirteenth-century baptismal fonts was primarily a northern predilection in the Latin West directly influenced by the contemporary military campaigns. The Infantia Christi Corpus, a collection of approximately one-hundred-and-fifty fonts, verifies how the Danish and Gotland workshops modified and augmented biblical history to reflect the prevailing crusader ideology and rhetoric that dominated life during the Valdemarian era in the Baltic region. The artisans constructed the pictorial programs according to the readings of the Mass for the feast days in the seasons of Advent, Christmas and Epiphanytide. The political ambitions of the northern leaders and the Church to create a Land of St. Peter in the Baltic region strategically influenced the integration of Holy Land motifs, warrior saints, militia Christi and martyrdom in the Infancy cycles to justify the escalating northern conquests. Neither before nor after, in the history of baptismal fonts, have so many been ornamented with the Infancy cycle in elaborate pictorial programs. A brief revival of elaborate Infancy cycles occurs on the fourteenth and fifteenth century fonts commissioned for sites previously located in the Christian borderlands east of the Elbe River with the rise of the Baltic military orders and the advancement of the Church authority. This extraordinary study integrates theological, liturgical, historical and political developments, broadening our understanding of what constituted northern crusader art in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.

Harris & Savage have proceeded to do just that.

‎HARRIS JAMES‎

‎Fractal Architecture: Organic Design Philosophy In Theory And Practice‎

‎University of New Mexico Press Albuquerque: . Softcover. Brand new book. Throughout history nature has served as an inspiration for architecture and designers have tried to incorporate the harmonies and patterns of nature into architectural form. Alberti Charles Renee Macintosh Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Courbusier are just a few of the well- known figures who have taken this approach and written on this theme. With the development of fractal geometry--the study of intricate and interesting self- similar mathematical patterns--in the last part of the twentieth century the quest to replicate nature's creative code took a stunning new turn. Using computers it is now possible to model and create the organic self-similar forms of nature in a way never previously realized. In Fractal Architecture architect James Harris presents a definitive lavishly illustrated guide that explains both the "how" and "why" of incorporating fractal geometry into architectural design. 8.5 x 11 in. 424 pages 360 color illustrations 7 drawings 52 halftones 1 chart. James Harris is an architect in New York where he is a senior vice-president of The Related Companies. Among his commercial real estate projects are the Time Warner Center and the MIMA Complex at 42nd Street as well as many other apartment and office structures and hotels. "Architect Harris explores the role of fractal geometry in architecture in this beautiful book.An outstanding feature of the book is the large collection of computer-generated graphics based on fractal algorithms which show sequential stages of the development of complex buildings from simpler shapes. The author's approach is interdisciplinary drawing on psychology philosophy art history biology physics and mathematics." -- Choice University of New Mexico Press, Albuquerque: paperback‎
