‎During the 19th century, Austrian painters were drawn to faraway countries for their inspiration. Initially, they documented scenes and motifs. Later, the visual allure of foreign places, the transformation of landscapes and buildings by sunlight, the depiction of heat and the exotic surroundings also began to find expression in their paintings and drawings. One of the most important Austrian painters to visit the Orient was Leopold Carl Muller, who produced many market scenes and figures over the course of nine winters in Egypt. Other Austrian painters, such as Alois Schonn, Alphons Mielich and Bernhard Fiedler, also travelled to the Orient, and Rudolf Swoboda and Hermann von Konigsbrunn even reached India and Ceylon. August von Pettenkofen, Otto von Thoren and Johann Gualbert Raffalt looked for inspiration closer to home, in neighbouring Hungary. This publication brings together the impressions of these artists of Hungary, the Balkan, Greece and Constantinople, Egypt and the Holy Land, as well as India, Ceylon and the Indian Ocean.‎

‎Summary Starting from a political reality, which is, at the same time, artistic and cultural, the book Ars Hasburgica aims to review the still so common historiographical conception of the Renaissance that conceives this period from a geographically Italocentric, artistically classicist and politically centered the idea of "national" arts and schools. But Renaissance is a more global and complex phenomenon. What this book aims to offer is an idea of the art of that period that considers the role played by the Habsburg dynasty and its various courts in this period, trying to verify whether, by applying other historiographic models, and having the art of the Casa de Austria as a focus, traditional ideas can continue to be maintained well into the twenty-first century. We refer to the so-called "Vasari paradigm", on which art history of the sixteenth century has largely been built over the last centuries. It is also intended to structure concepts about the art of the period not so much around nationalist considerations and identities of the arts, but to raise these issues throughout ideas such as that of the court as a political, artistic and cultural sphere, in the wake of the classical studies by Norbert Elias, Amedeo Quondam or Carlo Ossola.

‎Mit Sphaera und Astrolab. 'Die Entdeckung der Natur' in s dostdeutschen Kl stern im hohen Mittelalter‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 432 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:30 b/w, 21 col., 16 tables b/w., 5 maps b/w, Language: German. ISBN 9782503598901.‎

‎Summary This book offers a study of the scientific landscape of medieval Bavaria during the higher Middle Ages. Based on manuscripts as well as medieval library catalogues, it tries to quantify the so-called 'Discovery of Nature' and tries to analyse it from the perspective of a monastic landscape in which the arrival of the astrolab in the 11th century marked a significant turning point. By introducing new methods and questions into the traditional body of Carolingian astronomy, monastic scholars of this area played a decisive, albeit neglected, role in the development of medieval astronomy. The book reconstructs the studies of the monk Wilhelm von Hirsau who tackled some of the most urgent problems of astronomy of his time: correcting the dates of the solstices and finding latitude. These studies are then placed in the broader development of medieval science, particularly focusing on his sphaera, an instrument that has often been wrongly understood as a teaching device. In contrast, the present study argues that this instrument is not only William's lost astronomical clock, but also the first example for stationary observational astronomy in medieval Europe as well as an important milestone towards the empirical astronomy of future centuries. Dieses Buch untersucht die Wissenslandschaft des deutschsprachigen S dostens im hohen Mittelalter. Auf Grundlage berlieferter Handschriften und mittelalterlicher Bibliothekskataloge wird die sogenannte ?Entdeckung der Natur' quantifiziert und aus der Perspektive einer Klosterlandschaft analysiert, in der die Ankunft des Astrolabs im 11. Jahrhundert einen bedeutenden Wendepunkt markierte. Durch die Einf hrung neuer Methoden und Fragen in den tradierten Wissenskosmos des fr hen Mittelalters spielten die monastischen Gelehrten dieses Raumes eine entscheidende, wenngleich vernachl ssigte Rolle f r die Entwicklung der mittelalterlichen Astronomie. Das Buch rekonstruiert die Studien des M nchs Wilhelm von Hirsau, der sich mit einigen der dr ngendsten Problemen der Astronomie seiner Zeit befasste: der Neudatierung der Sonnenwendepunkte sowie der Suche nach dem eigenen Breitengrad. Vor allem wird seine Sphaera in den Blick genommen, ein Instrument, das bislang vor allem als Lehrger t gedeutet wurde. Im Gegensatz dazu vertritt die vorliegende Studie die These, dass es sich bei diesem Instrument nicht nur um Wilhelms verlorene astronomische Uhr handelt, sondern um das erste berlieferte Beispiel eines station ren Observatoriums im mittelalterlichen Europa und damit um einen wichtigen Meilenstein in der Geschichte der empirischen Astronomie.

‎Rise of an Academic Elite : Deans, Masters, and Scribes at the University of Vienna before 1400‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, xi + 697 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:15 col., Language(s):English, French, Latin. ISBN 9782503601021.‎

‎Summary Henry of Rheinfelden, a Dominican from Basel, spent the last decade of the fourteenth century at the University of Vienna studying theology. During this time he took notes on the academic activities of the first rectors of the university and deans of the Faculties of Arts and Theology. This volume explores Rheinfelden's contribution to our understanding of the doctrinal, curricular, administrative, and prosopographical history of the early University of Vienna. Deciphering Rheinfelden's surviving notebooks in the Universit tsbibliothek Basel sheds new light on the rise of an academic elite in Vienna. His manuscripts reveal a network of scholars sharing a passion for knowledge and supply a gallery of intellectual profiles, starting with the mentors of the group, Henry of Langenstein and Henry Totting of Oyta, and continuing with the lesser-known figures Stephen of Enzersdorf, Gerhard Vischpekch of Osnabr ck, Paul (Fabri) of Geldern, Andreas of Langenstein, Rutger Dole of Roermond, Nicholas of H nhartzkirchen, Nicholas of Dinkelsb hl, John Berwart of Villingen, John Stadel of Russbach, Peter de Treysa, Michael Suchenschatz of Hausleiten, Peter Schad of Walse, Thomas of Cleves, and Leonhard of Dorffen. The papers gathered in this volume highlight the intricate relationship between a commitment to administrative duty and an appetite for the creation of a doctrinal tradition via debating, forging arguments, defending and attacking positions, commenting on authorities, and adopting and adapting academic practices imported from Paris, since the majority of the authors in our gallery were educated in Paris and built their careers in Vienna. Through Rheinfelden's notebooks, this volume provides access to unique and previously unknown texts that together offer a new image of the medieval University of Vienna.

‎Learning to be Noble in the Middle Ages. Moral Education in North-Western Europe‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, 295 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:4 b/w, 5 col., Language(s):English, Old French, Middle High German. ISBN 9782503595009.‎

‎Summary This book explores for the first time the moral education of the Western European nobility in the high Middle Ages. The medieval nobility created and utilized values and ideals such as chivalry and courtliness to legitimize their exalted position in society, and these values were largely the same across Europe. Noble codes of conduct communicated these ideals in everyday interactions and symbolic acts at court that formed the basis of European courtly society. This book asks how noble men and women were taught about morality and good conduct and how the values of their society were disseminated. While a major part of moral education took place in person, this period also produced a growing corpus of writing on the subject, in both Latin and the vernacular languages, addressing audiences that encompassed the lay elites from kings to the knightly class, men as well as women. Participation in this teaching became a distinguishing feature of the nobility, who actively promoted their moral superiority through their self-fashioning as they evolved into a social class. This book brings together analyses of several major European didactic texts and miscellanies, examining the way nobles learned about norms and values. Investigating the didactic writings of the Middle Ages helps us to better understand the role of moral education in the formation of class, gender, and social identities, and its long-term contribution to a shared European aristocratic culture.

‎Summary Les soci t s des villes d'Allemagne du Sud n'ont pas peur de l'innovation la fin du Moyen ge : sur un si cle (fin xiiie-fin xive si cle), beaucoup d'entre elles cr ent des r gimes politiques int grant des groupes sociaux jusqu'alors exclus de toute participation, sur un principe commun d clin en fonction des situations locales : le conseil urbain est d sormais constitu presque partout de d l gations de corps de m tier (Z nfte). Les citadins ne se contentent pas de cette premi re innovation. Dans beaucoup de cas, ils proc dent avec grand soin la mise par crit de ces dispositions : ce sont ces chartes constitutionnelles qui sont au centre de ce livre. Le passage l' crit n'est jamais une vidence ; les difficult s rencontr es par leurs auteurs t moignent de l'importance de cette mise par crit pour les soci t s qui l'ont produite. Qui sont leurs auteurs, comment ont-ils travaill ? Eux qui n' taient sans doute pas en contact avec la th orie savante de leur temps n'ont pas laiss de texte th orique pour clairer leur d marche, mais ces chartes permettent de d gager les grandes lignes de leur pens e politique. Le soin pris d crire le nouveau dispositif institutionnel le montre : il ne s'agit pas seulement d'un acte administratif, mais d'un v ritable programme politique et social. Ces chartes sont le produit de p riodes de troubles, avec ou plus souvent sans violence, pour mettre fin l'exclusivit politique des lites traditionnelles, en assurant un quilibre politique de long terme. Pour viter la fois le retour un pouvoir oligarchique et la d stabilisation par les masses populaires, leurs concepteurs ont une s rie de choix effectuer. Qui d signe les repr sentants des m tiers ? Quel poids ont les diff rents m tiers ? Quel poids politique les lites traditionnelles conservent-elles ? Les promesses d mocratiques annonc es ont-elles t tenues ? Il y a bien des mani res pour les lites de contourner les garanties d'ouverture offertes par les chartes, mais les m tiers, fortun s ou non, se montrent attach s au syst me et au texte des chartes qui leur donnaient une dignit nouvelle.

‎Women's History in the Age of Reformation. Johannes Meyer's Chronicle of the Dominican Observance‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Paperback, approx. x + 306 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Illustrations:2 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9780888443083.‎

‎Summary In his work The Book of the Reformation of the Order of Preachers, the Dominican friar Johannes Meyer (1422-1485) drew on letters, treatises, and other written records, as well as interviews, oral accounts, and his own personal experience, to record the blossoming of the Observant reform movement. The result is this sprawling, eclectic, yet curiously intimate account of the men - but mostly of the women - who devoted their lives to revitalizing the Dominican order in southern Germany. With his reliance on their accounts and archives and respect for their intellectual abilities and spiritual resolve, Meyer's treatment of medieval Dominican women provides a model from which today's historians stand to learn. The introduction contextualizes Meyer's celebratory work within a more objective historical background; it is followed by a full translation, making this remarkable history available to English-speaking readers for the first time.‎

‎Kabbalah from Medieval Ashkenaz and Renaissance Christian Theology Eleazar of Worms (c. 1165c. 1238) and Egidio da Viterbo (c. 1469- 1532)‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2025 Hardback, Pages: 223 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language(s):English. ISBN 9782503618449.‎

‎summary The preoccupation of Christian theologians and scholars with the Hebrew language and sources at the dawn of the sixteenth century resulted in the transfer of a vast corpus of medieval Hebrew texts into Christian intellectual discourse and networks. These Hebrew sources were meticulously collected, copied, translated, and subjected to rigorous study. These collections include texts that originate from medieval Ashkenaz, the majority of which can be attributed to Eleazar ben Yehuda of Worms (c. 1165?c. 1238). Rabbi Eleazar was a prominent Jewish scholar of his time and a member of one of the most prestigious families in Jewish communities of the German Rhineland and Palatinate. However, the history of medieval Ashkenazic writings has been neglected in scholarship, which has favoured other Jewish (primarily Sephardic) sources in tracing the influence of medieval Jewish mysticism on Christian theology and Kabbalah. This book takes the hitherto disregarded Ashkenazi Hebrew sources as its point of departure. It focuses on the work of Eleazar as a main representative of the ?aside Ashkenaz, and on his magnum opus Sode Razayya, which discusses all matter of the divine and the mundane sphere. The book explores how Eleazar?s work was a potentially interesting source for a Renaissance Christian Kabbalist like Egidio (Giles) da Viterbo. Kabbalah from Ashkenaz is distinguished by its emphasis on the Hebrew letters and language, along with the divine word and divine speech (dibur). This central motif of the Ashkenazi sources found resonance with certain Christian theologians and Kabbalists in the context of Christian logos theology, which is similarly anchored in the divine word (verbum). This book thus challenges scholarly traditions about ?Jewish mysticism? and the sources of humanist Hebraism. It demonstrates how Christian Kabbalah enables a new perspective on Ashkenazi sources, and equally how Ashkenazi sources help to illuminate Renaissance Christian theology.

‎Summary The wealth of medieval art found in Germany's Protestant churches is unparalleled; contrary to what is generally believed, Lutherans were often tolerant to medieval church interiors, maintaining or altering the use of furnishings and images or simply accepting them as neutral things (adiaphora) and as objects of tradition. In consequence, it is the country?s Lutheran churches that offer the most insight into what churches looked like before the Reformation, not only in Germany but even across the Latin West. This book, illustrated with over 500 colour photographs by the author, visually explores Germany?s best medieval church interiors. A presentation of twenty-five outstanding examples is followed by analysis of the primary factors in the survival of medieval art through five centuries of Protestantism. Then, ten thematic chapters discuss the most important furnishings, including altars and their decorations, tabernacles, stalls and benches, screens, pulpits, sculptures, and baptismal fonts.
