Raphael's Poetics makes the connection between the world famous and the unknown; it reconstructs the visual grammar that underlies the famous works of Raphael and which derives from the classical and contemporary Latin poetry that was so omnipresent in his surroundings but is now largely forgotten. By focusing on principles that from the basis of poetry Rijser explains the context in which Raphael's works were functioning, and arrives at an interpretation that they may have had for their intended audience. Highly innovative, thanks to the emphasis on a literary standpoint while looking at visual objects, Rijsers research results in a truly interdisciplinary methodology.

This volume takes as its focus the paradoxical double-bind of textuality and visuality in the culture of the high and late Middle Ages and early modernity. In a series of case studies contributors explore the historical and theoretical implications of the idea that texts and images alike ‘speak to the eye’. Some scholars have proclaimed the coming of a ‘visual turn’ to explain the boom in conferences, books, and even specialized journals that take as their topic the theoretical or historical study of visual culture. The notion of visual culture may seem self-evident, not merely from our own twenty-first-century perspective but also when applied to earlier periods of western European history. However, the nature and status of the visual media, as well as the ways in which these were received, experienced, and appropriated, underwent several major changes between the twelfth and the seventeenth centuries. Contemporary sources describe and define the experience of reading texts and images as involving a mixture of visual and aural impulses that address both the inner eye and the outer senses. This volume sets out explicitly to investigate the specific, sensuous nature of this experience. It also addresses the question of whether, and if so to what extent and in which ways, this ‘reading experience’ was engendered.
