Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Reframing medieval art through the lens of queer theory, this pioneering volume sharpens our understanding of conceptions of gender, the body, and eroticism across three centuries Though historically focused on chaste, religious subjects that conform to modern ideas of binary gender roles, the study of medieval art from Europe has recently expanded, unearthing themes that reflect a diverse range of experiences and identities. Spectrum of Desire reframes medieval concepts of gender, sexuality, and love by reevaluating sculptures, paintings, manuscripts, and personal items through the lens of queer theory, a critical approach that sets aside contemporary ideas of normativity to analyze works of art in the context of their time. The book proposes new readings of beloved masterpieces and interrogates aspects of medieval art and culture that are often overlooked, such as nonconformist sexual practices, gender variance, and power plays within human and divine relationships. Focusing on more than forty works of art from the fourteenth through sixteenth centuries, the texts in this volume not only encourage readers to reflect on the ways that sex, gender, and relationships structured medieval lives and identities, but also prompt contemplation of how these attitudes affect understandings of these subjects in the present day.

Hardcover. Square quarto. Hardcover. Grey cloth boards with black/gilt titles and design in illustrated jacket with gilt titles. 279 pages : color illustrations, portraits ; 27 cm. As an art form, jewelry is defined primarily through its connection to and interaction with the body--extending it, amplifying it, accentuating it, distorting it, concealing it, or transforming it. But how is the meaning of jewelry bound to the body that wears it? Establishing six different modes of ornamenting the body--Deconstructed, Divine, Regal, Idealized, Alluring, and Resplendent--this artfully designed book illustrates how these various definitions of the body give meaning to the jewelry that adorns it. More than 200 examples of exceptional jewelry and ornaments, created across the globe from antiquity to the present, are shown alongside paintings and sculptures of bejeweled bodies to demonstrate the social, political, and aesthetic role of jewelry. From earflares of warrior heroes in Pre-Columbian Peru to designs by Yves Saint-Laurent, these precious and most intimate works of art provide insight not only about the wearer but also into the designers, artisans, and cultures that produced them. Exhibition: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA (12.11.2018-24.02.2019). VG. Light shelf wear, mostly a little bumping around the edges. Interior unmarked besides a small stamp inside stating "removed from an art museums library".

gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Das mittelalterliche Jerusalem war ein bedeutendes internationales Zentrum und Heimat vieler Menschen verschiedener Kulturen, Glaubensrichtungen und Sprachen. Diese harmonischen und mitunter dissonanten Einflüsse aus orientalischen und europäischen Traditionen verliehen Jerusalem eine Schlüsselrolle bei der Gestaltung der Kunst des Mittelalters. Die zahlreichen Essays internationaler Experten und detaillierten Beschreibungen von mehr als 200 Kunstwerken vermitteln ein authentisches Bild dieser einflussreichen Metropole im Zeitraum von vier Jahrhunderten. Mäzene und Künstler aus christlichen, jüdischen und islamischen Traditionen richteten ihre Aufmerksamkeit auf die Heilige Stadt, indem sie ihre sakralen Gebäude prächtig ausstatteten und zahlreiche Luxusobjekte schufen. Diese künstlerische Ergiebigkeit war zwischen dem 11. und 14. Jahrhundert besonders ausgeprägt, trotz oft verheerender Umstände wie dem Erdbeben im Jahre 1033 oder den erbitterten Kämpfen der Kreuzzüge. Zahlreiche und hochwertige Abbildungen veranschaulichen die beispiellose Geschichte Jerusalems im Mittelalter. Ein Standardwerk zum Thema! (Text engl.) 352 pp. Englisch.
