Abstract

L'auteur propose un répertoire complet des monuments arméniens de Haute-Arménie connus, qu'ils soient ou non conservés. Délimitant le territoire concerné sur la base des données historiques et géographiques, il en retrace l'histoire de l'Antiquité jusqu'au seuil du XXe siècle, puis donne un aperçu général des problèmes archéologiques, des types et des techniques de construction. Suit un répertoire alphabétique des monuments, région par région. Chaque notice expose la situation, l'histoire et le description du monument, avec un grand nombre de cartes, de plans et d'illustrations. Du fait de la dégradation mesurable de ces monuments, l'inventaire, fourni par l'auteur prend donc ainsi l'aspect d'un sauvetage virtuel.

Abstract

This book opens to the reader the world of early medieval Armenia: its sacred landscapes, striking churches, and rich literary and religious traditions. Examination of three sculpted and inscribed monuments, produced during the "global" wars of the seventh century, demonstrates the close engagement of Armenia with Byzantine imperial interests and with contemporary events in the Holy Land. The dramatic context of the military frontier, and the apocalyptic expectations of its contemporaries, shaped a vibrant visual culture with ties to both the Byzantine and Sasanian worlds. The seventh-century monuments of Armenia are important not just as an extraordinary moment of local cultural production; they fill a crucial gap in our knowledge about the medieval traditions of the Christian East at a time from which little survives from Constantinople and the imperial heartland. Vigilant Powers is the first English-language book devoted to the subject.

Abstract

The monuments of medieval Armenia have been interpreted variously over the centuries as Gothic, Byzantine, Iranian, and "Saracen". However, few scholars have offered satisfactory answers regarding their origins and relations to other architectural traditions. This study examines the scholarship on the subject in East and West and offers a persuasive explanation for the current scholarly impasse. Maranci highlights Josef Strzygowski (1865-1941), a prominent figure in the Vienna School of art history, who was closely allied to the pan-German movements of the early twentieth century. Using unpublished archival materials as well as Strzygowski's numerous publications, the author shows how the ideology of race and nation pervaded Strzygowski's theories of art, and how his ideas and persona have informed - and inhibited - subsequent generations of scholars. The concluding chapter outlines a revised study of Armenian architecture, moving from issues of architectural style to contextual inquiries of patronage and crosscultural exchange. As a detailed survey of medieval monuments and as a historiographical case study, the work addresses a broad audience: not just art historians but all readers interested in how ideology shapes our critical faculties.
