Abstract

When we look at a landscape, do we see nature or culture? That question lies at the heart of this book. The author believes that every landscape, forest, river, or mountain, is a work of the mind, a repository of the memories and obsessions of the people who gaze upon it. In this work of history, naturalism, mythology, and art, he ranges over continents and centuries to reveal the psychic claims that human beings have made on nature. He tells of the Nazi cult of the primeval German forest; the play of Christian and pagan myth in Bernini's Fountain of the Four Rivers; and the duel between a monumental sculptor and a feminist gadfly on the slopes of Mount Rushmore.

Abstract

Les études rassemblées dans ce volume abordent les divers aspects qu'a revêtus au cours de l'histoire la représentation du paysage, et les multiples questions qu'elle pose dans les domaines de la littérature, des arts et des sciences humaines. Par delà la diversité de leurs objets et de leurs compétences, littéraires, historiens de l'art et de la société, ethnologues, géographes, philosophes convergent vers une même interrogation: sommes-nous encore capables de donner un sens au monde dans lequel nous vivons? L'enquête menée ici montre l'extraordinaire potentiel symbolique dont est porteuse la relation de l'homme avec le paysage. Nul doute qu'elle ne demeure aujourd'hui encore une source de réflexion et de création. Une meilleure connaissance de son histoire et de ses enjeux ne peut qu'aider à mieux comprendre sa place dans la société et ses expressions contemporaines.

Abstract

The present volume analyzes the functions of landscape imagery within medieval Northern European manuscript illumination, and also takes into account the ideological and the economic milieus in which they were produced. This book proposes a new methodological framework for the study of medieval landscape imagery, by analyzing the functions of landscape imagery within Northern European manuscript illumination. Taking a historicist approach, this study explores landscape imagery within a broad range of specific manuscript contexts, taking into account the ideological and the economic milieus in which they were produced. Organized into three sections, this study will look at how landscape functioned as ornament, didactic tool (space) and political tool (place). The first section looks at the role that landscape imagery had in the hierarchy of book decoration, and how it responded to late medieval mnemonic systems and devotional practices. It also addresses the emergence of landscape as a form of ornamental elaboration, sometimes as a means to appeal to specific aesthetic criteria, or as a way to create extra-textual associations to augment the message of the text. The second section is concerned with landscape within encyclopedic and allegorical manuscripts, and will analyze how artists constructed space to communicate specific lessons or ideas, for example to frame debates about the role of agricultural labor or to present the dynastic ambitions of the Burgundian court. Finally, the third section explores the visualization of the political and economic landscape of late medieval Europe, particularly focusing on how landscape was structured to respond issues of status, power and identity not only in works created for the landed nobility but within manuscripts made for urban patrons as well. Concentrating on manuscripts from Paris, Northern France and Flanders from the late thirteenth to the early sixteenth centuries,
