A"Manuscripts in Transition. Recycling Manuscripts, Texts and
ImagesA" gathers together some 40 contributions by art historians
specialised in research into book illuminations from the time of
Charlemagne to Charles V's Habsburg empire (ca. 800-ca. 1550). The
accent is mainly on the art of the illumination in the Gothic,
Burgundian and Post-Burgundian periods. This anthology is the
product of an international conference held in Brussels in 2002 in
connection with the exhibition A"Medieval Mastery: Book
Illumination from Charlemagne to Charles the Bold (800-1475)
(Leuven, Stedelijk Museum Vander Kelen-Mertens). The central focus
of the conference was the systematic re-use of texts and images in
the Middle Ages. The examination of this theme resulted in the
present fascinating series of articles.
