Brossura. Condition: new. A cura di Elisabetta Scirocco e Sible De Blaauw.Testo Italiano, Inglese e Francese.Roma, 2023; br., ill. b/n e col., cm 16,5x24.(Quaderni della Bibliotheca Hertziana. 11). Can words alone help us grasp the material and phenomenological complexity of a space from the past? The most likely answer is no. It is undeniable, however, that texts are nonetheless a fundamental resource in attempts to reconstruct medieval sacred spaces that have either disappeared or whose architectural, aesthetic, and ritual aspects have been altered. The essays collected in this volume, written by specialists in the history of art, architecture, and liturgy, demonstrate this in many ways. They discuss various categories of textual sources related or linkable to sacred, ritual, and liturgical spaces in the Middle Ages, and although the geographical focus is on Southern Italy, other Italian and European cases are also included. The textual sources drawn upon span those of a narrative character (chronicles, gesta, hagiographies) to early modern records about medieval buildings and their decoration; from ekphrasis to ritual instructions and musical notations. The aim is to (re)consider both well- and less-known written sources and to explore some of the hermeneutical questions posed by their relationships to monuments, landscapes, and artistic products.

Dedicato a Serena Romano, questo libro vorrebbe restituirle un po' di quel tanto che ha offerto, in vari modi, a tutti quelli che hanno avuto la fortuna di conoscerla e di frequentarla. L'argomento generale, quello delle continuità di lunga durata, dei ritorni in generale, e delle rinascite dell'antico, le è caro da sempre. Lei stessa lo ha esplorato in contributi fondanti e i numerosi autori che hanno accolto l'invito a partecipare al volume ne hanno dato declinazioni diverse. La decisione di dare un tema unitario a questo volume miscellaneo si giustifica anche per un'altra ragione: figlia del '68, Serena Romano ha sempre avuto una certa reticenza nei confronti di onorificenze troppo accademiche, staccate a volte dalla dimensione concreta della ricerca. Da qui il desiderio di costruire un volume che possa essere un prolungamento tangibile di un modo di guardare la storia cui Serena Romano ha contribuito per anni. Libro.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. If there is one constant in the history of Christianity and especially of the Western Church, it is its deep desire to be connected with its own past. From the perspective of the longue duree, it might even be possible to state that a meditation on Christian origins was a common and widespread response used throughout history in the face of each great moment of crisis within the Church. In those situations, the rhetoric produced by the Church was always aimed at emphasizing a desire to return to these mythical roots, the ideal community, a pure and radical Christianity. The question underlying this book is the way in which this desire for the past provides the occasion to re-live, re-think and re-create Christian origins. More precisely, the crux of our work is to understand how this desire can transform and rewrite the past both in materiality - with restorations of ancient monuments - and in ideas - writing history. In this book, the main focus of attention is dedicated to three key moments, corresponding more or less to three crucial episodes in the history of the Catholic Church in the modern era. The first of these three is the Reformation and subsequent Counter-Reformation, between the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Second comes the moment in which the Catholic Church lost its temporal power during the Unification of Italy and the "spiritual" reaction culminating with the First Vatican Council (1869-1870). Lastly is the period before and after the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), which can be considered the most significant reaction of Catholicism towards modernity. If there is one constant in the history of Christianity and especially of the Western Church, it is its deep desire to be connected with its own past.

The contributions of this special issue - proceedings of the conference on royal nunneries that took place in Prague in July 2020 - focus on the monasteries connected to the ruling houses, which were endowed with special privileges and enriched by royal and aristocratic donations, often serving as instrumenta regni. They are introduced as active cultural hubs, stages for royal and courtly promotion, and places of personal and dynastic self-representation.
