‎Middle and Late Byzantine Poetry: Texts and Contexts‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Paperback, vii + 413 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503578866.‎

‎Summary It is only in recent years that Byzantine poetry - a long-neglected aspect of Byzantine literature - has attracted the attention of philologists, literary and cultural historians. This holds true especially for the poetry written in middle and late Byzantium.Though many collections of poems are available in modern critical editions, a considerable amount of texts still remains completely unedited or accessible only in outdated and unreliable editions. Moreover, many works of this period have never been studied thoroughly with regard to their cultural impact on society. Issues of authorship and patronage, function, literary motives, generic qualities, and manuscripts still await further study. This volume aims to take a step to fill this gap. Although it includes studies on poetry from the early tenth to the fifteenth centuries, the main focus is placed on the Komnenian and Palaeologan times. It presents editions of completely unknown texts, such as a twelfth-century cycle of epigrams on John Klimax. It includes studies on various types of poetry, including didactic, occasional, and even poetry written for liturgical purposes. By analysing these works and placing them within their literary and socio-cultural context, we can draw conclusions about the cultural tastes of the Byzantines and acquire a more nuanced picture of middle and late Byzantine poetry.

‎, Arnoldsche, 2021 Paperback, 96 pages, GER, 240 x 170 mm, NEU, ca 50 ill. in farbe. ISBN 9783897906389.‎

‎Heidi Kippenberg studied ceramics under Walter Popp, the legendary teacher at the Kassel Art Academy whose avant-garde work opened up new dimensions of form and expression for ceramic vessels. She internalized the aesthetic of Popp?s vessels and simultaneously gave them her own distinctive touch. Strongly twisted, thick-walled, sometimes mounted stoneware vessels, further enlivened by thick monochrome glazes and augmented with sign-like contrasting glazed accents, characterize her oeuvre. Later she was inspired by East Asian ceramics and began to build her vessels, assembling them from slabs, giving their surfaces a lively structure, and transforming them into decorative landscapes. An oeuvre spanning more than half a century can be admired!‎

‎Andreas Vesalius / Sachiko Kusukawa‎

‎Andreas Vesalius: Anatomy and the World of Books‎

‎London, Reaktion Books, 2024 Hardcover, 224 pages, 22 x 14.5 cm, Illustrated. *Fine. ISBN 9781789148527.‎

‎A revisionist biography of Andreas Vesalius - the father of modern anatomy - as deeply shaped by Renaissance culture. In 1543 the young and ambitious physician Andreas Vesalius published one of the most famous books in the history of medicine, On the Fabric of the Human Body. While we often think of dissection as destroying the body, Vesalius believed that it helped him understand how to construct the human body. In this book, Sachiko Kusukawa shows how Vesalius's publication emerged from the interplay of Renaissance art, printing technology, and classical tradition. She challenges the conventional view of Vesalius as a proto-modern, anti-authoritarian father of anatomy through a more nuanced account of how Vesalius exploited cultural and technological developments to create a big and beautiful book that propelled him into imperial circles and secured his enduring fame.'Kusukawa's vivid reconstruction of the making of Vesalius's Fabrica takes us deep inside the world of anatomical demonstrations, hospital postmortems, criminal executions, university lecture halls, humanist libraries and artistic and printing workshops. She explains how Vesalius thought about books, images and bodies, and his skill at instructing Renaissance readers how to look, touch, dissect and model the human body in order to learn from it. There is no better introduction to Vesalius.' - Paula Findlen, Stanford University'In this brilliant digestion of her earlier work, Kusukawa not only reconstructs 'the making' of Andreas Vesalius's masterpiece, Fabrica (and the book's reception and afterlife), but the making of the man himself. The 'founder' of modern anatomy we see in full context, reliant on his peers, his readers and his students in the production of his masterpiece. He is also shown to be a canny negotiator with artists and printers in the making of the book's famous images. Ultimately Andreas Vesalius: Anatomy and the World of Books compels engagement with the construction of the 'truthfulness' of all scientific images, then and now. This is historical anatomy and provocation at its arresting best.' - Claudia Stein, University of Warwick‎

‎Chronicle, Crusade, and the Latin East. Essays in Honour of Susan B. Edgington‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2022 Hardback, Pages: 354 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:3 b/w, 1 tables b/w. Language(s):English, Latin. ISBN 9782503586205.‎

‎Chronicle, Crusade, and the Latin East offers a collection of essays exploring three closely connected thematic areas: the narrative traditions surrounding the early crusading movement, the influence of these textual traditions on wider processes of medieval historical writing and storytelling, and the history of crusading and the Latin East. In recent years, the field of crusade studies has witnessed a significant groundswell of scholarly work, with particular emphasis on the narrative construction of crusading deeds in text and song, of the important role played by memory and memorialisation in transmitting crusading tales and promoting participation, and the nature of life in the Latin states of the East. This volume not only engages with, and offer fresh insights into, these topics, but also serves as a monument to the career of Susan B. Edgington, who has done so much to increase modern understanding of crusade narratives and the crusading past, and who has made a significant impact on the careers of many scholars. The collection of essays gathered here by established and early career historians, Edgington?s friends and students, thus furthers the study of both crusading as narrative and crusading as a lived experience.‎

‎Andrew of Saint Victor, Commentary on Isaiah‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 492 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language(s):English, Latin, Hebrew. ISBN 9782503605050.‎

‎Summary Andrew of Saint Victor was one of the most prominent biblical scholars of the twelfth century. He was a regular canon of the Parisian abbey of St Victor, founded in 1108, which in the twelfth century had developed into a prestigious center of spiritual learning, closely connected to the nascent university in Paris. Because of his frequent use of Jewish exegetical materials, Andrew's commentaries are a rich source for the history both of biblical hermeneutics and of inter-religious dialogue during the Middle Ages. His Isaiah commentary caused outrage among medieval Christian scholars because it eschewed traditional christological interpretations, and instead offered a reading "according to the Hebrew." This translation makes this work accessible in English for the first time. The source text of this volume was published in 2021 by Frans van Liere (Corpus Christianorum, Continuatio Mediaeualis, 53C). References to the corresponding pages of the Corpus Christianorum edition are provided in the margins of this translation.

‎, Arnoldsche, 2018 160 pp., 24.5 x 30.7 cm, 150 colour ills. Hardcover. English. Dustjacket ISBN 9783897905153.‎

‎Most of the subjects of Lucio Bubaccos (b. 1957) glass art are provocative and polarising; at the same time they are sensual and beguiling. In a kind of erotic trance dance Mephistophelian and frequently riotous ? nightmarish fabulous creatures and mythological phantasms virtually undulate about each other. His technical virtuosity in creative execution is unparalleled, for the Murano-born glass artist has elevated the Venetian flame technique to a new level of skill and complexity. Bubacco has captured human feelings and emotions in the masterly play of gestures and muscles of the glass figures featured in his burlesque installations. Full of wit and irony he thus explores the limits of kitsch without overstepping them. Follow him into a world of carnevalesque orgies, crystalline incubi and erotic fantasies in glass! Lucio Bubacco is represented in numerous museums, including the Museum of Arts and Design, New York, The Corning Museum of Glass, Museum of American Glass, Millville, and Tampa Museum of Art (US); Nagoya Museum (JP); Glasmuseum Frauenau and European Museum of Modern Glass / The Veste Coburg Art Collections (DE); MusVerre, Sars-Poteries (FR); Museo del Vetro, Murano, Venice (IT); Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, Rotterdam (NL); J&L Lobmeyr Museum and The Margot and Roman Fuchs Collection, both in Vienna (AT).‎
