Gibt es eine historische Wirklichkeit hinter dem in der Renaissance verfertigten Mythos von Giotto als Erneuerer der europäischen Kunst? Der erste Band des dreibändig angelegten Werks Giottus Pictor ist Giottos Lebensgeschichte gewidmet: Auf der Grundlage teils unpublizierter Quellen aus der Lebenszeit des Malers wird die Biographie kritisch erarbeitet. Giotto tritt den Lesern als eine erfolgreiche Normalexistenz des 14. Jahrhunderts gegenüber und dürfte als eine solche nicht nur Kunsthistoriker, sondern im Zeichen von Mentalitätsgeschichte und Mikrogeschichte auch Historiker interessieren.Die Schriftquellen aus insgesamt vier Jahrhunderten, auf denen diese historische Version von Giottos Leben sowie die legendarische Version der Renaissance beruhen, werden im Anhang mit dem Anspruch auf Vollständigkeit wiedergegeben.

In this book, Henrike Lange takes the reader on a tour through one of the most beloved and celebrated monuments in the world - Giotto's Arena Chapel. Paying close attention to previously overlooked details, Lange offers an entirely new reading of the stunning frescoes in their spatial configuration. The author also asks fundamental questions that define the chapel's place in Western art history. Why did Giotto choose an ancient Roman architectural frame for his vision of Salvation? What is the role of painted reliefs in the representation of personal integrity, passion, and the human struggle between pride and humility familiar from Dante's Divine Comedy? How can a new interpretation regarding the influence of ancient reliefs and architecture inform the famous "Assisi controversy" and cast new light on the debate around Giotto's authorship of the Saint Francis cycle? Illustrated with almost 200 color plates, this volume invites scholars and students to rediscover a key monument of art and architecture history and to see it with new eyes.
