‎Hans Memling, Master Painter in Fifteenth-Century Bruges.‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2009 Hardback, original editor's jacket, english, IV+386 pp., 302 b/w ill. + 32 colour ill., 220 x 280 mm. ISBN 9781905375196.‎

‎Studies in Medieval and Early Renaissance Art History (HMSAH 53. This book contributes to the ongoing reappraisal of Memling by addressing some of the tantalizing problems that remain unresolved despite much recent study of his work. Beginning with the question of his training, the text follows him on his Wanderjahre from his native Germany to Bruges, where he became a citizen in 1465. It then considers his activities as a master painter in Bruges, concentrating on the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, including the work of such major artists as Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael.‎

‎Library of the Dukes of Burgundy.‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller 2020, 2020 Hardcover, 205 pages., 134 col. ills, 220 x 280 mm , English, .fine!! ISBN 9781912554249.‎

‎Very richly illustrated, this volume re-frames this exceptional library within its political, economic, historical and artistic context, examining closely both scholarly literature and more than sixty manuscripts considered to be the jewels of the Library. Formed under Philip the Bold and passed down to his successors, John the Fearless and Philip the Good, the Library of the Dukes of Burgundy comprised no less than nine hundred manuscripts copied and illuminated by the greatest artists of the Middle Ages by the time of Charles the Bold. This extraordinary and unique library included essential texts of medieval literature such as the works of Christine de Pizan, the Roman de la Rose by Jean de Meung and Guillaume de Lorris, the History of Charles Martel, as well as the Ethics and Politics of Aristotle. It was one of the largest collections of books of its time alongside those of the King of France Charles V, the Duke of Berry, the Medici and the papacy. The two hundred and eighty manuscripts of the collection preserved today in the Royal Library of Belgium cover all fields of medieval thought: literature, ancient history, sciences, morals, religion philosophy, but also law, poetry and chivalric romance. The oldest of these works date back to the fourteenth century while the most recent date from the end of the feudal period. Many of them were transcribed at the express request of the dukes by renowned copyists such as Jean Mi lot, Jean Wauquelin, and David Aubert. Many of these codices are absolute masterpieces of the French or Flemish miniature and have been illuminated by Willem Vrelant, Loyset Li det, Jean le Tavernier, Philippe de Mazerolles, Simon Marmion, and Li vin Van Lathem, miniaturists whose fame and talent competed with Flemish Primitives such as Jan Van Eyck, Rogier Van der Weyden or Hans Memling. In the unanimous opinion of researchers, manuscripts that belong to the collection such as the Chronicles of Hainault by Jacques de Guise, the Hours of the Duke of Berry, the Psalter of Peterborough or the Cronic and Conquest of Charlemagne, are among the fifty most prestigious manuscripts in the world. Bernard Bousmanne, PhD in Medieval History, has been director of the Manuscripts Department since 1997. Cocurator of KBR museum and formerly President of the Centre International de Codicologie, he has published numerous monographs and essays on medieval art. Elena Savini holds degrees from the University of Bologna, the Universit de Haute-Alsace (Mulhouse) and the Universit libre de Bruxelles, and is currently a member of the Manuscripts Department of the KBR. A specialist in French literature of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries as well as medieval manuscripts, she is also co-curator of KBR museum.‎

‎Principautes dans l'Occident Medieval A l'origine des regions,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2008 Paperback, 387 pages., 15 b/w line art, 160 x 240 mm. fine ISBN 9782503521916.‎

‎La region en Occident, une realite politique actuelle de grande importance, mais qui ne constitue pas une nouveaute car son ancetre souvent tres direct s'appelle la principaute. En effet depuis les alentours du Xe siecle des ensembles politiques se sont constitues qui se sont mues en etats regionaux, phenomene durable en France et surtout dans les pays du Saint Empire. Cet ouvrage presente un panorama des fondations et de l'evolution des principautes afin d'evaluer une realite historique encore trop sous-estimee, mais il se veut aussi une reflexion sur un des sujets fondamentaux de l'histoire politique. Le Moyen Age demeure a bien des egards d'une persistante actualite car, au-dela des differences de techniques ou de contexte politique et economique, les memes questions se posent depuis un millenaire et parfois davantage : la taille geographique satisfaisante, le droit territorial et son usage, la securite, la gestion, les rapports avec les villes, les conditions meme de la reussite regionale. En toile de fond se profile le grand debat sur le role respectif des differents niveaux d'autorite publique. L'ouvrage tente une synthese sur ces points essentiels, grace a la cooperation de quatre universitaires : le professeur Georges Bischoff (Strasbourg), pour les pays germaniques, le doyen Jean-Marie Cauchies (Bruxelles et Louvain-la-Neuve) pour les Pays-Bas au sens ancien, le professeur emerite Bernard Demotz (Lyon) pour la France en ses limites actuelles, le professeur honoraire Pierre Racine (Strasbourg) pour l'Italie. Principautes, regions, c'est une longue histoire qui se poursuit depuis le temps des principautes - royaumes ... Empire jusqu'a celui tres contemporain des regions ' etats-nations ' organismes supranationaux. La region peut constituer un remede majeur a l'uniformisation et preserver une forme de richesse humaine. Languages : French.‎

‎Trade in Good Taste. Relations in Architecture and Culture between the Dutch Republic and the Baltic World in the Seventeenth Century,‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 2005 Paperback, XII+219 pages ., 67 b/w ill., 220 x 280 mm. ISBN 9782503514895.‎

‎During the seventeenth century Dutch influence on the Baltic region, both economic and aesthetic, was unrivaled. In the wake of the Dutch monopoly on Baltic trade, cultural contacts between the Dutch Republic and the Baltic world flourished. The Dutch Republic was even to fulfil an exemplary function in the Baltic world (particularly in the Swedish Empire, the dominating power in the region), not solely limited to the commerce of commodities but extending to the domain of architecture and art as well. In this intensive cultural traffic, an important role was set aside for Dutch immigrants, architects, artists, and their agents. Apart from their regular activities as diplomats or news correspondents, agents mediated in cultural affairs for patrons in the North. As such, they occupied a key role in the relations between the Baltic world and the Dutch Republic. The pivotal element in these networks, they negotiated between Baltic commissioners and Dutch architects, artists, and suppliers of luxury items, including sculptures, tapestries, paintings, as well as a wide range of books and prints - all of which were available on the Amsterdam market. These extensive networks mark the Dutch Republic as a major centre of architecture, art, and information, crucial to the cultural development of northern Europe. The history of this lively trade in good taste is told on the basis of rich archival material, including drawings, book and art collection inventories, correspondence, travel journals, and diaries.

‎Torre David: Informal Vertical Communities‎

‎Torre David, a 45-story skyscraper in Caracas, has remained uncompleted since the Venezuelan economy collapsed in 1994. Today, it is the improvised home to more than 750 families living in an extra-legal and tenuous squat, that some have called a “vertical slum.” Urban-Think Tank, the authors of Torre David: Informal Vertical Communities, spent a year studying the physical and social organization of this ruin-become home. Richly illustrated with photographs by Iwan Baan, the book documents the residents’ occupation of the tower and how, in the absence of formal infrastructure, they organize themselves to provide for daily needs, with a hair salon, a gym, grocery shops, and more. The authors of this thought-provoking work investigate informal vertical communities and the architecture that supports them and issue a call for action: to see in informal settlements a potential for innovation and experimentation, with the goal of putting design in service to a more equitable and sustainable future. — Testi: Brillembour Alfredo, Klumoner Hubert.
