Download or read book Rewriting Roman History in the Middle Ages written by Marek Thue Kretschmer and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2007-04-30 with total page 440 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Historia Romana was the most popular work on Roman history in the Middle Ages. A highly interesting aspect of its transmission and reception are its many redactions which bear witness to the continuous development of the text in line with changing historical contexts. This study presents the very first classification of such rewritings, and produces new insights into historiographical discourse in the Middle Ages. Drawing on an analysis of the paraphrase contained in the manuscript Bamberg Hist. 3, which is edited here for the first time, the author offers numerous examples of textual transformations of language, style and ideology, all of which give us a clearer picture of textual fluidity in medieval historiography.
Download or read book Rome Ravenna and Venice 750 1000 written by Veronica West-Harling and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020-03-12 with total page 721 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The richest and most politically complex regions in Italy in the earliest middle ages were the Byzantine sections of the peninsula, thanks to their links with the most coherent early medieval state, the Byzantine empire. This comparative study of the histories of Rome, Ravenna, and Venice examines their common Byzantine past, since all three escaped incorporation into the Lombard kingdom in the late 7th and early 8th centuries. By 750, however, Rome and Ravenna's political links with the Byzantine Empire had been irrevocably severed. Thus, did these cities remain socially and culturally heirs of Byzantium? How did their political structures, social organisation, material culture, and identities change? Did they become part of the Western political and ideological framework of Italy? This stusy identifies and analyses the ways in which each of these cities preserved the structures of the Late Antique social and cultural world; or in which they adapted each and every element available to them to their own needs, at various times and in various ways, to create a new identity based partly on their Roman heritage and partly on their growing integration with the rest of medieval Italy. It tells a story which encompasses the main contemporary narratives, documentary evidence, recent archaeological discoveries, and discussions on art history; it follows the markers of status and identity through titles, names, ethnic groups, liturgy and ritual, foundation myths, representations, symbols, and topographies of power to shed light on a relatively little known area of early medieval Italian history.
Download or read book Il fascino di Roma nel Medioevo written by Cristina Nardella and published by Viella Libreria Editrice. This book was released on 2011-03-07T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Per tutto il Medioevo non esistette una sola città paragonabile a Roma per la quantità e la qualità dei monumenti posseduti e per il numero di visitatori che vi giungevano, desiderosi di visitare i centri più importanti della cristianità ma anche attratti dal fascino delle antiche vestigia pagane. L’esigenza di indicazioni per muoversi nella città portò alla compilazione delle prime guide per i pellegrini, da cui scaturì nel XII secolo un originale prodotto letterario, i Mirabilia urbis Romae, che ebbe innumerevoli versioni nei tre secoli successivi. In questa tradizione spicca per originalità la Narrazione delle meraviglie della città di Roma, compilata tra il XII e il XIII secolo da un erudito inglese, maestro Gregorio. Formatosi culturalmente nello studio dei classici, l’autore è completamente assorbito dalla contemplazione dell’antica Roma – al punto di trascurare la città cristiana – e descrive con vera passione artistica i monumenti pagani. Fin da primo impatto ci comunica il fascino subìto, quando dall’altura di Monte Mario gli si presenta una città dove «così numerose sono le torri da sembrare spighe di grano, tante le costruzioni dei palazzi, che a nessun uomo riuscì mai di contarle». Di questa opera singolare il libro fornisce il testo originale latino e la traduzione italiana a fronte, preceduti da un ampio studio introduttivo.
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Dante written by Manuele Gragnolati and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021 with total page 778 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Oxford Handbook of Dante contains forty-four specially written chapters that provide a thorough and creative reading of Dante's oeuvre. It gathers an intergenerational and international team of scholars encompassing diverse approaches from the fields of Anglo-American, Italian, and continental scholarship and spanning several disciplines: philology, material culture, history, religion, art history, visual studies, theory from the classical to the contemporary, queer, post- and de-colonial, and feminist studies. The volume combines a rigorous reassessment of Dante's formation, themes, and sources, with a theoretically up-to-date focus on textuality, thereby offering a new critical Dante. The volume is divided into seven sections: 'Texts and Textuality'; 'Dialogues'; 'Transforming Knowledge'; Space(s) and Places'; 'A Passionate Selfhood'; 'A Non-linear Dante'; and 'Nachleben'. It seeks to challenge the Commedia-centric approach (the conviction that notwithstanding its many contradictions, Dante's works move towards the great reservoir of poetry and ideas that is the Commedia), in order to bring to light a non-teleological way in which these works relate amongst themselves. Plurality and the openness of interpretation appear as Dante's very mark, coexisting with the attempt to create an all-encompassing mastership. The Handbook suggests what is exciting about Dante now and indicate where Dante scholarship is going, or can go, in a global context.
Download or read book Perspectives on Dante Politico written by Donatella Stocchi-Perucchio and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2024-04-22 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that political concerns, inseparable from Dante’s biography, permeate his entire corpus, emerging at the intersection of the multiple fields of knowledge he explores, from the liberal arts to law, philosophy, and theology. It also shows that Dante, by elucidating the natural integration of the humanities with the sciences, continues to be a source of provocative insights and inspirations on how to be political beings today. Preceded by an introductory chapter focused on politics and education, the essays collected in the volume offer a range of close textual and contextual readings of Dante’s life and works grouped in four parts: 1. The Self and History, 2. Visions of the World: Cosmology and Utopia, 3. From the Language of Politics to the Language of Theology, 4. Instances of Political Reception in Asia and South America. The different disciplinary angles adopted by the contributors include history, economics, jurisprudence, linguistics, ethics, metaphysics, theology, cosmology, social thought, ecology, education, and the performing and visual arts. The collection addresses a specialized audience of Dante scholars, medievalists, historians, political philosophers and scientists, reception scholars, and legal and cultural historians.
Download or read book Giotto s Arena Chapel and the Triumph of Humility written by Henrike Christiane Lange and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-31 with total page 581 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Henrike Lange takes the reader on a tour through one of the most beloved and celebrated monuments in the world – Giotto's Arena Chapel. Paying close attention to previously overlooked details, Lange offers an entirely new reading of the stunning frescoes in their spatial configuration. The author also asks fundamental questions that define the chapel's place in Western art history. Why did Giotto choose an ancient Roman architectural frame for his vision of Salvation? What is the role of painted reliefs in the representation of personal integrity, passion, and the human struggle between pride and humility familiar from Dante's Divine Comedy? How can a new interpretation regarding the influence of ancient reliefs and architecture inform the famous “Assisi controversy” and cast new light on the debate around Giotto's authorship of the Saint Francis cycle? Illustrated with almost 200 color plates, this volume invites scholars and students to rediscover a key monument of art and architecture history and to see it with new eyes.
