Romanesque and the Past - Retrospection in the Art and Architecture of Romanesque Europe (Paperback, New): John McNeill Romanesque and the Past - Retrospection in the Art and Architecture of Romanesque Europe (Paperback, New)
John McNeill
R2,372 Discovery Miles 23 720 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The nineteen papers collected in this volume explore a notable phenomenon, that of retrospection in the art and architecture of Romanesque Europe. They arise from a conference organized by the British Archaeological Association in 2010, and reflect its interest in how and why the past manifested itself in the visual culture of the 11th and 12th centuries. This took many forms, from the casual re-use of ancient material to a specific desire to re-present or emulate earlier objects and buildings. Central to it is a concern for the revival of Roman and early medieval forms, spolia, selective quotation, archaism and the construction of histories. The individual essays presented here cover a wide range of topics and media: the significance of consecration ceremonies in the creation of architectural memory, the rise of pictorial concepts in 12th-century chronicles, the creation of history in the Paris of Hugh of St-Victor, and the appeal of the works of Bernward of Hildesheim and of Hrabanus Maurus in the centuries after their deaths. There are studies of buildings and the ideological purpose behind them at Tarragona, Ripoll, Cluny, Pannonhalma (Hungary), La Roccelletta (Calabria), and Old St Peter's, comparative studies of Trier, Villenauxe and Glastonbury, and of Bury St Edmunds, Rievaulx and Canterbury, and wide-ranging papers on the tantalizing evidence for an engagement with an overseas past in Ireland, an Anglo-Saxon past in England, and a Milanese past among the aisleless cruciform churches of Augustinian Europe. The volume concludes with an assessment of the very concept of Romanesque.

Paris - The Powers that Shaped the Medieval City (Paperback): Alexandra Gajewski, John McNeill Paris - The Powers that Shaped the Medieval City (Paperback)
Alexandra Gajewski, John McNeill
R1,134 Discovery Miles 11 340 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The chapters, written by an international group of scholars, cover the subject from many different angles. They encompass wide-ranging case studies that address architecture, manuscript illumination and stained glass, as well as questions of liturgy, religion and social life. Topics include the early medieval churches that preceded the current cathedral church of Notre-Dame and cultural production in the Paris area in the late 12th and early 13th centuries, as well as Paris’s chapels and bridges. There is new evidence for the source of the c. 1240 design for a celebrated window in the Sainte-Chapelle, an evaluation of the liturgical arrangements in the new shrine-choir of Saint-Denis, built 1140–44, and a valuable assessment of the properties held by the Cistercian order in Paris in the Middle Ages. Also investigated are relationships between manuscript illuminators in the fourteenth century and representations of Paris in manuscripts and other media up to the late 15th century. Paris: The Powers that shaped the Medieval City updates and enlarges our knowledge of this key city in the Middle Ages and is for Medieval Archaeologists and Historians.

The Many Faces of Bereavement explores the development and specifications of traditional models of grieving, with particular emphasis on the relationship, age, and personal characteristics of the mourner. In addition, the volume provides a framework of symptomatology for nontraumatic, nonstigmatic deaths for the purpose of comparative study. The book opens with a comprehensive overview of the traditional models of grief, with special attention given to the treatment of parental grief and the grief response of the elderly following the death of a spouse. Other chapters cover suggested typologies for traumatized and stigmatized processes of grief that are specific to the mode of death, including murder, drunk driving fatalities, community disasters, suicide, and AIDS-related deaths. Finally, the authors draw on their own personal experiences to present a summation of treatment strategies and considerations for working with bereaved patients.

Anjou - Medieval Art, Architecture and Archaeology (English, French, Hardcover): John McNeill, Daniel Prigent Anjou - Medieval Art, Architecture and Archaeology (English, French, Hardcover)
John McNeill, Daniel Prigent
R3,897 Discovery Miles 38 970 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The Association's 2000 conference was held in Angers and concentrated on the medieval art, architecture and archaeology of greater Anjou. Extensive consideration was given to the major surviving monuments in Angers itself and attempts were made to explore work in the county, giving rise to papers on the production and standardisation of building stone, comital patronage, Cistercian architecture, castle building, wall painting, aisleless naves, tile pavements, Angevin gothic architecture and the chateau at Saumur. The majority of papers dealing with Angers itself are concerned with early medieval and Romanesque material, though there are notable excursions into 13th century stained glass and the Anglo-French historiography of domical vaults. In keeping with the bilingual nature of the conference, this volume contains articles in both English and French, each article being preceded by an extended precis in the language other than that of the main text. Although it has not been possible to include all the papers given at the conference most are present and it is hoped that the light shone on some of the more intractable problems of Angevin studies will be of value to future generations of scholars. British Archaeological Association (BAA) Conference Transaction Series BAA Conference Transactions contain studies on medieval art, architecture and archaeology arising from the BAA's annual conference. Each volume is compiled by an invited guest editor.

John McNeill, Richard Plant
R1,284 Discovery Miles 12 840 Ships in 12 - 17 working days

The 23 chapters in this volume explore the material culture of sanctity in Latin Europe and the Mediterranean between c. 1000 and c. 1220, with a focus on the ways in which saints and relics were enshrined, celebrated, and displayed. Reliquary cults were particularly important during the Romanesque period, both as a means of affirming or promoting identity and as a conduit for the divine. This book covers the geography of sainthood, the development of spaces for reliquary display, the distribution of saints across cities, the use of reliquaries to draw attention to the attributes, and the virtues or miracle-working character of particular saints. Individual essays range from case studies on Verona, Hildesheim, Trondheim and Limoges, the mausoleum of Lazarus at Autun, and the patronage of Mathilda of Canossa, to reflections on local pilgrimage, the deployment of saints as physical protectors, the use of imagery where possession of a saint was disputed, island sanctuaries, and the role of Templars and Hospitallers in the promotion of relics from the Holy Land. This book will serve historians and archaeologists studying the Romanesque period, and those interested in material culture and religious practice in Latin Europe and the Mediterranean c.1000-c.1220.
