This volume deals with the question: how did scholars and artists in the early modern period represent, or rather, recreate (Greek and Roman) history? It appears that ancient history was not just studied so as to reconstruct the past, it was used as a way of understanding and legitimizing the present. Sixteen authors from various disciplines have studied the works of scholars and artists in different media so as to reveal how they used ancient history as a rich field of raw material, that could be used, recycled and adapted to new needs and purposes. The studies in this volume are important for historians of the early modern period from all disciplines, and for all those interested in the reception of classical antiquity. Contributors include: Maria Berbera, Jan Bloemendal, Anton Boschloo, Jeanine De Landtsheer, Jan L. de Jong, Karl Enenkel, Marc Laureys, Olga van Marion, Alicia Montoya, Mark Morford, Bettina Noak, Sjaak Onderdelinden, Paul Smith, Wilfried Stroh, Francesca Terrenato, Arnoud Visser, and Bart Westerweel. This publication has also been published in paperback, please click here for details.

William Molyneux's question to John Locke about whether a blind man restored to sight could name the difference between a cube and a sphere without touching them shaped fundamental conflicts in philosophy, theology and science between empirical and idealist answers that are radically alien to current ways of seeing and feeling but were born of colonizing ambitions whose devastating genocidal and ecocidal consequences intensify today. This Element demonstrates how landscape paintings of unfamiliar terrains required historical and geological subject matter to supply tactile associations for empirical recognition of space, whereas idealism conferred unmediated but no less coercive sensory access. Close visual and verbal analysis using photographs of pictorial sites trace vividly different responses to the question, from those of William Hazlitt and John Ruskin in Britain to those of nineteenth-century authors and artists in the United States and Australia, including Ralph Waldo Emerson, Thomas Cole, William Haseltine, Fitz Henry Lane and Eugene von Guérard.

La « poétisation », qui est au cœur de l’ouvrage, dépasse le fait de mettre en poésie, stricto sensu. Si dans le discours littéraire, c’est écrire ou parler poétiquement, ou donner une dimension poétique, l’ouvrage englobe non seulement l’écriture poétique et fictionnelle mais aussi la représentation artistique, inspirée notamment du concept de poésie et d’« aura » qui émane de l’œuvre d’art, selon Walter Benjamin. Modalité de représentation du réel, esthétisation de l’événement, la poétisation est un moyen de médiation et de transmission, mais aussi d’instrumentalisation, qui revisite le rapport entre histoire et arts (littérature, peinture, cinéma, iconographie, etc.). Au croisement de divers arts, elle met en jeu l’intermédiarité, la mise en récit, la mise en forme artistique d’un fait et ce faisant, elle interroge sur l’engagement par l’art. L’ouvrage analyse la mise en textes et en images de l’événement, les modalités et les buts de la poétisation, dans des œuvres précises (films, tableaux, romans, poèmes, etc.), à travers des approches croisées. Les quinze contributions issues de disciplines variées (civilisation, histoire, histoire des idées, littérature, cinéma, peinture, etc.) réunies ici embrassent les aires culturelles européennes et américaines, du Moyen Âge à aujourd’hui. L’ouvrage est structuré autour d’axes thématiques : l’action dans la cité exercée par le poète ou l’artiste ; la poétisation comme alternative du discours historique ; la poétisation comme dénonciation éthique et politique, par d’autres biais que le discours critique. « La poétisation de la terreur » montre que l’esthétisation par la peinture, le cinéma ou la littérature permet de dépasser la violence de la guerre ou du terrorisme. L’ouvrage s’inscrit dans le champ de l’histoire culturelle et explore les interférences entre l’histoire, ses traces, son écriture, ses représentations et les arts.

Fully illustrated in colour, here is the first introduction in English to one of Korea's outstanding cultural assets - the banchado ('painting of the order of guests at a royal event') - relating to all those taking part (1800 people) in the eight-day royal procession to Hwaseong (Gyeonggi Province) organized by King Jeongjo in 1795 for the dual purpose of visiting his father's tomb and celebrating his mother's sixtieth birthday. The banchado is a fine example of the meticulous record-keeping of the period (known as uigwe - the subject-matter of this book being known as the Wonhaeng eulmyo jeongni uigwe) and the skills of the court artists at that time. In addition to the banchado illustrations, the Wonhaeng eulmyo jeongni uigwe contains extensive lists of all the participants in the procession, details of the workers and technicians involved, including their duties and wages. It even includes the different foods offered at meal-times, the quantity of ingredients and the costs. The author provides a full analysis of the context, planning, execution and significance of the event.

The castle at Cataio, about thirty-five miles from Venice, was built between 1570 and 1573. A series of frescoes, painted in 1573, covers the walls of six of its palatial halls. Programmed by Giuseppe Betussi, the forty frescoes depict momentous events in the history of the Obizzi family from 1004 to 1422. This book deals with this topic.

This is the first in-depth historical study of Jan Gossart (ca. 1478–1532), one of the most important painters of the Renaissance in northern Europe. Providing a richly illustrated narrative of the Netherlandish artist’s life and art, Marisa Anne Bass shows how Gossart’s paintings were part of a larger cultural effort in the Netherlands to assert the region’s ancient heritage as distinct from the antiquity and presumed cultural hegemony of Rome. Focusing on Gossart’s vibrant, monumental mythological nudes, the book challenges previous interpretations by arguing that Gossart and his patrons did not slavishly imitate Italian Renaissance models but instead sought to contest the idea that the Roman past gave the Italians a monopoly on antiquity. Drawing on many previously unused primary sources in Latin, Dutch, and French, Jan Gossart and the Invention of Netherlandish Antiquity offers a fascinating new understanding of both the painter and the history of northern European art at large.
