Download or read book "Architecture and Pilgrimage, 1000?500 " written by Deborah Howard and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 303 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although there is an obvious association between pilgrimage and place, relatively little research has centred directly on the role of architecture. Architecture and Pilgrimage, 1000-1500: Southern Europe and Beyond synthesizes the work of a distinguished international group of scholars. It takes a broad view of architecture, to include cities, routes, ritual topographies and human interaction with the natural environment, as well as specific buildings and shrines, and considers how these were perceived, represented and remembered. The essays explore both the ways in which the physical embodiment of pilgrimage cultures is shared, and what we can learn from the differences. The chosen period reflects the flowering of medieval and early modern pilgrimage. The perspective is that of the pilgrim journeying within - or embarking from - Southern Europe, with a particular emphasis on Italy. The book pursues the connections between pilgrimage and architecture through the investigation of such issues as theology, liturgy, patronage, miracles and healing, relics, and individual and communal memory. Moreover, it explores how pilgrimage may be regarded on various levels, from a physical journey towards a holy site to a more symbolic and internalized idea of pilgrimage of the soul.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating journey back in the centuries, to feel closer to a period often erroneously considered as dark and static. In this book, the author shows how those centuries really were, that is to say constantly on the move. Emperors, princes and popes with their armies but also, and mainly, merchants, bandits, pilgrims, people seeking their fortune or their social redemption and also women. All of them travelling long distances, in dangerous conditions, sometimes to the limit of human possibilities. The work is historical, accurate and includes references to tens of works and historiographers dealing with the subject of travelling in the Middle Ages, analyzing different trends. You are going to find out who departed in the Middle Ages and why, you will find plenty of information about roads, inns and different kinds of accommodation. It also includes a chapter about pilgrimage: both religious and judicial pilgrimages. A book for Middle Ages lovers but not only.

This book was released on 2010 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The collection of Italian medieval sculpture in The Metropolitan Museum of Art and The Cloisters began with the acquisition in 1908 of a Romanesque column statue; today the Museum's holdings comprise more than seventy works dating from the ninth to the late fifteenth century ... The birthplaces of these works range from Sicily to Venice; some typify local styles, others illustrate the intense artistic exchanges taking place within Italy and between Italy and the wider world ... Technological advances of the last decades have made it possible to determine more precisely the materials and techniques from which works of art are made, the history of their alteration, and the mechanisms of their deterioration. Using such techniques, scholars have been able to ascertain, for example, that sculptures previously thought to be modern works carved in the medieval manner were in fact completely authentic. This innovative volume represents a watershed in the study of sculpture: a collaborative dialogue between an art historian and a conservator—between art history and art science—that deepens our understanding of the object we see, while illuminating its elusive, enigmatic history"--From publisher's description.

This book was released on 2023-12-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: E 'innegabile che oggi i "cammini" stiano vivendo una stagione particolarmente feconda: questo anno, per esempio, gli arrivi al Santuario di Compostela, dopo aver fatto il cammino sono stati trecentomila, decisamente un numero ragguardevole. Il libro che state per leggere affronta un tema molto approfondito negli ultimi anni: quello delle vie del pellegrinaggio. In particolare qui trattiamo della via Francigena in uno dei suoi tratti, quello toscano, cercando però di darne una lettura diversa. Come potrete notare abbiamo dato importanza alla presentazione di tematiche di generale interesse storico e inerenti la cultura del Medioevo in seguito alla considerazione di una necessità di inquadramento storico, geografico e culturale delle problematiche relative alla Via Francigena. Malgrado l'argomento del libro restringa il quadro geografico alla Toscana è parso opportuno inserire le argomentazioni specifiche all'interno di un quadro italiano e perfino europeo, anche per far presente l'importanza extra-regionale ed internazionale delle vie di pellegrinaggio medievali quali la Francigena. La diffusione del fenomeno del pellegrinaggio coincise con i profondi mutamenti della società medievale e con l'inizio di un periodo di relativa pace in tutta Europa. Dopo l'anno Mille si verificò una forte rinascita spirituale che spinse migliaia di pellegrini verso le grandi mete della Cristianità medievale: Roma, la Terrasanta e Santiago di Compostella. Il pellegrinaggio con le dure prove fisiche che implicava serviva al credente a raggiungere una conoscenza più personale e diretta della propria fede. I pellegrini, inoltre, erano considerati per l'esperienza che andavano a compiere e per aver rinunciato al mondo, almeno temporaneamente, una sorta di casta, quasi un ordine religioso con una propria missione spirituale. Roma era la meta più ambita delle "peregrinazioni maggiori" perché lì si trovava il capo della Cristianità, il successore dell'apostolo Pietro, a cui spettava l'assoluzione di tutti i peccati maggiori, ed era anche una città ricca di memorie e reliquie di martiri. La via di "Monte Bardone", detta poi "Francigena", fu per secoli il percorso viario privilegiato per i collegamenti fra Roma e le regioni oltrappenniniche. Particolare rilievo in questo libro ha la parte bibliografica, raccolta in questi anni, che rappresenta un corpus di ricerca vasto ed utile per chiunque voglia intraprendere studi ed approfondimenti futuri. A questo libro ne seguirà, in futuro, un altro dedicato alla schedatura di tutte le emergenze architettoniche lungo il percorso della Via Francigena, che permetterà al viaggiatore come allo studioso un approfondimento di ricerca scientifica e divulgazione culturale.

Download or read book Europe written by P. J. A. N. Rietbergen and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1998 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This major contribution to the idea of Europe sweeps the continent from its Celtic and German origins through the influence of the Greeks and Romans to the fruitful--and sometimes bloody--contacts with other cultures. Peter Rietbergen portrays Europe's history as a series of four grand phases of continuity and change set in the context of political, social and economic developments. These phases are new forms of: surviving; believing; looking at man and the world; and consumption and communication. Rietbergen's descriptions are supported by a selection of illuminating excerpts such as: Chaucer's description of London in 1378; Michelangelo on Italian art; and popular music lyrics of Iron Maiden and Sting.

Download or read book The Rationalization of Miracles written by Paolo Parigi and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-14 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Counter-Reformation in southern Europe, Catholic Church officials developed rules to legitimize miracles performed by candidates to sainthood. The Rationalization of Miracles uncovers a tacit understanding between central religious officials and local religious activists. Each group had a vested interest in declaring miracles: Catholic Church leaders sought legitimacy in the wake of the crisis of faith created by the Protestant Schism and religious acolytes needed Church approval to secure a flow of resources to their movements. The Church's new procedure of deeming miracles 'true' when there were witnesses of different statuses and the acts occurred in the presence of a candidate's acolyte served the needs of both parties. And by developing rules and procedures for evaluating miracles, the Church rationalized the magic at the root of the miracles, thereby propelling the institution out of a period of institutional, political and social uncertainty and forming the basis of modern sainthood.
