Abstract

Mudejarismo and Moorish Revival in Europe examines key aspects related to the reception of Ibero-Islamic architecture in medieval Iberia and 19th-century Europe. It challenges prevalent readings of architecture and interiors whose creation was the result of cultural encounters. As Mudéjar and neo-Moorish architecture are closely connected to the Islamic world, concepts of identity, nationalism, religious and ethnic belonging, as well as Orientalism and Islamoscepticism significantly shaped the way in which they have been perceived over time. This volume offers art historical and socio-cultural analysis of selected case studies from Spain to Russia and opens the door to a better understanding of interconnected cultural and artistic phenomena.

Abstract

This volume offers a comprehensive introduction to the major political, social, economic, and cultural developments in Vienna from c. 1100 to c. 1500. It provides a multidisciplinary view of the complexity of the vibrant city on the Danube. The volume is divided into four sections: Vienna, the city and urban design, politics, economy and sovereignty, social groups and communities, and spaces of knowledge, arts, and performance. An international team of eighteen scholars examines issues ranging from the city's urban environment and art history, to economic and social concerns, using a range of sources and reflecting the wide array of possible approaches to the study of medieval Vienna today.

Abstract

Dans Figures de l'histoire, Jacques Rancière poursuit sa subtile réflexion sur le pouvoir de représentation des images de l'art. Comment fait l'art pour rendre compte des événements qui ont traversé une époque ? Quelle place attribue-t-il aux acteurs qui les ont faits – ou à ceux qui en ont été victimes ? D'Alexandre Medvedkine à Chris Marker, de Humphrey Jennings à Claude Lanzmann, mais aussi de Goya à Manet, de Kandinsky à Barnett Newman, ou de Kurt Schwitters à Larry Rivers, ces questions ne sont pas seulement celles que posent les spectateurs aux oeuvres qu'ils rencontrent. Elles sont celles de l'histoire de l'art elle-même. S'interroger sur la manière avec laquelle les artistes découpent le monde sensible pour en isoler ou en redistribuer les éléments, c’est s'interroger sur la politique au coeur de toute démarche artistique. Telle est la démarche de Jacques Rancière, pour qui il n'est pas d'image qui, en montrant ou en cachant, ne dise quelque chose de ce qu'il est admis, dans tel lieu ou à tel moment, de montrer ou de cacher. Mais aussi pour qui il n'est pas d'image qui ne puisse, en montrant ou en cachant autrement, rouvrir la discussion à propos des scènes que l'histoire officielle prétendait avoir figées une fois pour toutes. Représenter l'histoire peut conduire à l'emprisonner – mais aussi à en libérer le sens.

Abstract

Through a series of cross-disciplinary and interdisciplinary interventions, leading international scholars of history and art history explore ways in which the study of images enhances knowledge of the past and informs our understanding of the present. Cumulatively, the contributions, which range over many time periods and places, showcase ways in which ongoing dialogue between history and art history raises important aesthetic, ethical and political questions for the disciplines. The volume fosters a methodological awareness that enriches exchanges across these distinct fields of knowledge. This innovative book will be of interest to scholars in art history, cultural studies, history, visual culture, and historiography.

Abstract

Associée déjà aux plus grandes institutions du savoir en France (Institut, Académie française, CNRS, universités, Musées de France, etc.), la Librairie Arthème Fayard prête au Collège de France son concours pour faire connaître l'œuvre des grands spécialistes de toutes les disciplines du savoir humain. Des langues mortes pour certaines intelligibles aux découvertes sur la matière, de la littérature à la biologie moléculaire, voici donc, sous la forme de brefs et élégants volumes le meilleur de ce que peuvent délivrer à un public attentif l'aristocratie de nos savants et de nos penseurs. En remontant le temps et en publiant en premier les leçons inaugurales prononcées dernièrement, nous espérons faire mieux connaître une institution fondée par François Ier et rassemblant aujourd'hui encore le meilleur des élites intellectuelles français.

Abstract

Religious Narratives in Contemporary Culture: Between Cultural Memory and Transmediality analyses the meaning and role of religion in western cultural practices in the twenty-first century. This inquiry situates itself at the intersection between cultural memory studies and the transmedial study of narrative and art. Contributors focus on genres which have yet to receive significant critical attention within the field, including speculative fiction films and television series, autobiographical prose and poetry, action-adventure video games and heavy metal music. In this time of crisis, where traces of religious thinking still persist in the presence or absence of religious faith, this volume's collective look into some of their cultural embodiments is necessary and timely. The volume is addressed primarily to scholars and students interested in intersections between religious and cultural studies, revisions of traditional religious narratives, literature as a space of reflection on today's world, contemporary media studies and remediation.
