In Architecture and Asceticism Loosley Leeming presents the first interdisciplinary exploration of Late Antique Syrian-Georgian relations available in English. The author takes an inter-disciplinary approach and examines the question from archaeological, art historical, historical, literary and theological viewpoints to try and explore the relationship as thoroughly as possible. Taking the Georgian belief that ‘Thirteen Syrian Fathers’ introduced monasticism to the country in the sixth century as a starting point, this volume explores the evidence for trade, cultural and religious relations between Syria and the Kingdom of Kartli (what is now eastern Georgia) between the fourth and seventh centuries CE. It considers whether there is any evidence to support the medieval texts and tries to place this posited relationship within a wider regional context.

Conques est un exemple typique de « monument à la biographie incomplète », bien que l’on dispose à son sujet de nombreuses sources écrites, bien que l’église soit magnifiquement conservée in situ et qu’il existe une imposante documentation sur les travaux de conservation du monument. Rien, en effet, ne donne de réponse précise à la question qui tourmente chaque historien de l’art – la datation – et Conques est devenu un terrain d’essai pour l’élaboration de différentes séquences chronologiques variant au gré de leurs créateurs. Après une description détaillée du monument, Xavier Barral expose les principaux questionnements que lui inspire cet édifice à l’immense bibliographie, questions auxquelles il tente de répondre dans ce livre. Il le fait en analysant trois ensembles de données – les sources documentaires et narratives, les éléments stylistiques, les documents du suivi des travaux de conservation/restauration. Mais, bien au-delà du chantier de Conques, ce livre offre une véritable leçon de méthodologie en Histoire de l’art du Moyen Age.
