À la fin du XIIIe siècle, Guillaume Durand, alors évêque de Mende, rédige le Rationale divinorum officiorum, qui constitue un texte essentiel sur la liturgie médiévale et son exégèse. Ce traité, commentant la dimension symbolique de la liturgie chrétienne et des éléments qui la composent, connaît une diffusion large et rapide dans tout l’Occident. En 1371, à la demande de Charles V, le texte est traduit en ancien français par Jean Golein sous le titre de Rational des divins offices. Cette traduction s’accompagne de cycles d’images alors que les exemplaires en latin n’avaient presque jamais été illustrés. Le Rational des divins offices marque ainsi une rupture dans l’histoire du texte mais plus encore dans l’histoire du genre qu’est l’exégèse liturgique, restée jusque-là sans images. Ce constat a rendu essentiel la naissance d’une étude sur ce texte et son décor.Les illustrations des neuf manuscrits conservés du Rational des divins offices forment le cœur de cet ouvrage. Elles sont des témoins exceptionnels pour aborder la façon dont le Moyen Âge a conçu la place et le rôle des images dans une société éminemment chrétienne. Grâce au cheminement thématique du présent ouvrage, le lecteur est amené à comprendre les implications esthétiques, historiques, politiques et théologiques qui sous-tendent la création artistique. Les mécanismes de traduction, l’implication royale, la personnalité du traducteur ou le contexte dévotionnel des XIVe et XVe siècle sont ici traités comme autant de fenêtres ouvrant sur la compréhension des images. Ce livre est une enquête qui tente de retracer une part de l’histoire du processus créatif médiéval.

"The subject of this book is the so-called London Qazvīnī, an early 14th-century illustrated Arabic copy of al-Qazvīnī's The Wonders of Creation and the Oddities of Existing Things, which was acquired by the British Library in 1983 (Or. 14140). As is commonly the case for copies of this text, the London Qazvīnī is lavishly illustrated, with 368 extant paintings out of the estimated original ca. 520. Its large format, ambitious illustrative cycle and the fine quality of many of the illustrations suggest that the atelier where it was produced must have been well-established and able to attract craftsmen from different parts of the Ilkhanid area. It also suggests that its patron was wealthy and curious about scientific, encyclopedic and 'ajā'ib literature, and keen to experiment with the illustration of new texts like this work, which had been composed by the author only two or three decades earlier. The only centre that was capable of gathering such artistic influences ranging from Anatolia to Mesopotamia appears to have been Mosul. The London Qazvīnī is an important newly surfaced document for the study of early illustrated Arabic copies of this text, representing the second earliest known surviving manuscript, as well as for the study of Ilkhanid painting. In a single and unique manuscript are gathered earlier Mesopotamian painting traditions, North Jaziran-Seljuq elements, Anatolian inspirations, the latest changes brought about after the advent of the Mongols, and a number of illustrations of extraordinary subjects which escape a proper classification."--Publisher's website.

Italian poet, novelist, literary critic and translator Cesare Pavese (1908-1950) is generally recognized as one of the most important writers of his period. Between the years 1929 and 1933, Pavese enjoyed a rich correspondence with his Italian American friend, the musician and educator Antonio Chiuminatto (1904-1973). The nature of this correspondence is primarily related to Pavese's thirst to learn about American culture, its latest books, its most significant contemporary writers, as well as its slang. This volume presents an annotated edition of Pavese and Chiminatto's complete epistolary exchange.Mark Pietralunga's brilliant introduction provides historical and cultural context for the letters and traces Pavese's early development as a leading Americanist and translator. The volume also includes an appendix of Chiuminatto's detailed annotations and thorough explanations of colloquial American terms and slang, drawn from the works of Sinclair Lewis, Sherwood Anderson, and William Faulkner. A lively and illuminating exchange, this collection ultimately corroborates critical opinion that America was the igniting spark of Pavese's literary beginnings as a writer and translator.
