Exodus - Border Crossings in Jewish, Christian and Islamic Texts and Images (Hardcover): Annette Hoffmann Exodus - Border Crossings in Jewish, Christian and Islamic Texts and Images (Hardcover)
Annette Hoffmann
R3,140 Discovery Miles 31 400 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The scientific debates on border crossings and cultural exchange between Judaism, Christianity, and Islam have much increased over the last decades. Within this context, however, little attention has been given to the biblical Exodus, which not only plays a pivotal role in the Abrahamic religions, but also is a master narrative of a border crossing in itself. Sea and desert are spaces of liminality and transit in more than just a geographical sense. Their passage includes a transition to freedom and initiation into a new divine community, an encounter with God and an entry into the Age of law. The volume gathers twelve articles written by leading specialists in Jewish and Islamic Studies, Theology and Literature, Art and Film history, dedicated to the transitional aspects within the Exodus narrative. Bringing these studies together, the volume takes a double approach, one that is both comparative and intercultural. How do Jewish, Christian and Islamic texts and images read and retell the various border crossings in the Exodus story, and on what levels do they interrelate? By raising these questions the volume aims to contribute to a deeper understanding of contact points between the various traditions.

Die Literatur des Trecento ist reich an Kunstleranekdoten, Erzahlungen und Ekphrasen, in denen Kunstwerke eine wichtige Rolle spielen. Der Band behandelt das Sprechen uber Kunst und Kunstler vor und wahrend der Etablierung der Kunsttheorie. Im Zentrum steht die Frage nach dem "Kunstgesprach", den Spuren seiner UEberlieferung in literarischer Brechung und den in den Praktiken zeitgenoessischer Kunstlerwerkstatten vermittelten Auffassungen von Kunst.

Der Begriff Habitus, so er in der kunsthistorischen Forschungsliteratur gebraucht wird, scheint der Soziologie entliehen zu sein. Dabei ist wenig bekannt, dass Pierre Bourdieu seinen wesentlichen theoretischen Impuls einem Kunsthistoriker verdankte. So berief sich Bourdieu in seiner Verwendung des Habitus-Begriffs mehrfach auf Erwin Panofsky, der in den 1930er Jahren die kunsthistorischen Disziplinen der Ikonographie und Ikonologie zu einem einheitlichen, methodischen System ausgebaut hatte. Bourdieu zeigte, wie Panofsky ein Instrumentarium praziser interpretativer Schnitte und Stufen entwickelt hatte, die es ermoglichten, die semantische Vielschichtigkeit der Werke bildender Kunst freizulegen. Der Themenband versteht sich als ein erster Beitrag zu einer Wiederentdeckung des fur die Ikonologie im Besonderen wie fur die Kunstgeschichte im Allgemeinen so zentralen Begriff Habitus . Er widmet sich dabei vier grossen Themenbereichen: I. Der Habitus des Korpers, II. Ordnung, Macht und Transgression, III. Habitus in Form und Stil und IV. Identitat und Distinktion."
