Abstract

The phenomenon of the Cistercian Order occupies a key place in the history of Western culture as it grew to dominate reformed European monasticism in the high middle ages. The transition from the Romanesque to Gothic styles occurred in the twelfth century when the order was expanding most dramatically. With sharp, clean lines, and minimal decor, its architecture was designed to reflect the simplicity and austerity required for this experiment in monastic life. An important reference work, The Cistercian Arts offers insights into a contemplative order that expanded from its modest origins in the Burgundian heartland to encompass six continents. Under the supervision of Terryl Kinder and Roberto Cassanelli, the theological and spiritual aspects and material culture of the Cistercian world are analyzed in depth by more than thirty international specialists in a forty-chapter overview. Music, libraries, water management, metallurgy, farming, liturgical arts, sacred reading, and many other facets of monastic life are traced from the founding of the order in 1098 to the present day. While the Cistercian Order grew to include approximately 1,700 abbeys for men and women, it did not end with the middle ages, and architecture was not its only manifestation. This exquisitely illustrated volume shows how the many arts created by and for Cistercian abbeys continued well beyond the medieval period.

Abstract

The long nineteenth century (c.1780–c.1920) in Western Europe saw an unprecedented rise in the production and possession of material goods. The material culture diversified and led to a rich variety of expressions. Dovetailing with a process of confessionalisation that manifested itself quite simultaneously, material religion witnessed its heyday in this period; from church buildings to small devotional objects.The present volume analyses how various types of reform (state, societal, and ecclesiastical) that were part of the process of modernisation affected the material devotional culture within Protestantism, Anglicanism, and Roman Catholicism. Although the contributions in this book start from a comparative European perspective, the case studies mostly focus on individual countries in North-West Europe, namely Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Norway, Sweden, and Denmark.The concept of ‘material religion’ is approached in a very inclusive way. The volume discusses, amongst others, parish infrastructures and religious buildings that are part of land and cityscapes, but also looks into interior design and decorations of chapels, churches, monasteries, cemeteries, and educational, charitable, and health institutions. It comprises the fine arts of religious painting and sculpture, the applied arts, and iconographic designs. As far as private material culture is concerned, this volume examines and presents objects related to private devotion at home, including a great variety of popular devotional and everyday life objects, such as booklets, cards, photographs, and posters.

Abstract

L'art et la théologie s'interpellent. La question de leur relation mutuelle a été le sujet d'un colloque international et oecuménique à l'occasion du jubilé des 500 ans de la Réforme (1517-2017). Ce colloque s'est déployé en cinq colloques et cinq lieux, trois pays, deux continents, comme autant d'étapes d'une recherche qui voulait prendre en compte les conditions d'émergence et d'approche d'une telle réflexion. Tel un diptyque, cet ouvrage rassemble les interventions des deux premières étapes francophones : deux lieux, deux institutions, deux confessions chrétiennes. Dans une approche plus théologique, l'ISTA (Institut supérieur de théologie des arts, Theologicum, Institut catholique de Paris) a mis en oeuvre une articulation féconde entre la figure de l'oiseau telle qu'elle se manifeste dans les arts et une recherche théologique à propos de l'Esprit Saint. Dans une approche plus historique, la faculté de théologie protestante (université de Strasbourg) a montré comment la Réforme fut aussi créatrice en matière de création artistique, et que celle-ci ne se limita pas aux seuls arts musicaux.
