Book excerpt: With this book, the Hungarian Academy of Rome offers to the medievalist community a thematic synthesis about Hungarian medieval art, reconstructing, in a European perspective, more than four hundred years of artistic production in a country located right at the heart of Europe. The book presents an up-to-date view from the Romanesque through Late Gothic up to the beginning of the Renaissance, with an emphasis on the artistic relations that evolved between Hungary and other European territories, such as the Capetian Kingdom, the Italian Peninsula and the German Empire. Situated at the meeting point between the Mediterranean regions, the lands ruled by the courts of Europe west of the Alps and the territories of the Byzantine (later Ottoman) Empire, Hungary boasts an artistic heritage that is one of the most original features of our common European past. The book, whose editors and authors are among today's foremost experts in medieval art history, is divided into four thematic sections - the sources and art historiography of the medieval period, the boundary between history, art history and archaeology, church architecture and decorations, religious cults and symbols of the power -, with a selection of essays on the main works of Hungarian medieval art held in museums and public collections.

Download or read book Hungarian Silver written by Judit H. Kolba and published by Heneage Thomas. This book was released on 1996 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stormy and often war-torn history of Hungary has been the background for a flourishing industry of gold and silversmith's work. Unfortunately, Hungarian silver is little known outside Hungary, but the outstanding collection of pieces acquired in the West over the last three decades by Nicolas Salgo and spanning more than four centuries of the goldsmith's craft provides a highly representative survey of the remarkable work of the Hungarian craftsmen. More than one hundred and twenty works have been brought together and illustrated in this book; maker's marks are identified whenever possible and reproduced alongside the pieces on which they appear. Provenance and literature are also provided. An outline history of Hungary, followed by a brief survey of the goldsmith's craft and of the guild system, set the pieces in their historical context, while notes on the goldsmiths represented in the collection and an appendix of makers' and town marks complete this invaluable book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alberto Manguel praises the Hungarian writer László Földényi as “one of the most brilliant essayists of our time.” Földényi’s extraordinary Melancholy, with its profusion of literary, ecclesiastical, artistic, and historical insights, gives proof to such praise. His book, part history of the term melancholy and part analysis of the melancholic disposition, explores many centuries to explore melancholy’s ambiguities. Along the way Földényi discovers the unrecognized role melancholy may play as a source of energy and creativity in a well-examined life. Földényi begins with a tour of the history of the word melancholy, from ancient Greece to the medieval era, the Renaissance, and modern times. He finds the meaning of melancholy has always been ambiguous, even paradoxical. In our own times it may be regarded either as a psychic illness or a mood familiar to everyone. The author analyzes the complexities of melancholy and concludes that its dual nature reflects the inherent tension of birth and mortality. To understand the melancholic disposition is to find entry to some of the deepest questions one’s life. This distinguished translation brings Földényi’s work directly to English-language readers for the first time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Budapest, the capital of Hungary, is often referred to as the "Paris of the East." This vibrant city is known for its stunning architecture, rich history, and lively cultural scene. Divided by the majestic Danube River, Budapest consists of two main parts: Buda and Pest. Buda is the hilly, historical side, offering spectacular views and a wealth of ancient buildings. In contrast, Pest is the flat, bustling urban heart, home to many of the city's modern attractions and amenities. The city's origins date back to Roman times, and its long history is reflected in its diverse architectural styles, from Roman ruins and Gothic churches to Baroque buildings and Art Nouveau structures. Budapest is not just a visual feast; it also boasts a wide range of thermal baths, thanks to its location on a patchwork of thermal springs. These baths, some of which date back to the Turkish occupation, provide a unique way to relax and soak in the city's historic atmosphere. In recent years, Budapest has become a popular tourist destination, attracting millions of visitors from around the world. It offers something for everyone, whether you're interested in history, culture, food, or simply enjoying the beautiful scenery. From the grandeur of the Parliament building to the charm of the Buda Castle, the city is full of iconic landmarks that captivate and inspire. Budapest's culinary scene is another highlight, blending traditional Hungarian flavors with modern culinary trends. Street food stalls, cozy cafes, and fine dining restaurants offer a taste of the local cuisine, which includes hearty dishes like goulash and chimney cake. The city's markets, especially the Great Market Hall, are perfect for exploring Hungarian food culture and picking up local delicacies. The city's vibrant nightlife, characterized by its famous ruin bars, also attracts a younger crowd. These unique bars, often set in the ruins of abandoned buildings, provide an eclectic and lively atmosphere where you can enjoy drinks and music late into the night. Overall, Budapest is a city that combines old-world charm with modern energy, making it a must-visit destination for travelers looking to experience the best of both worlds.

Download or read book The Museum Age in Austria-Hungary written by Matthew Rampley and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2021-02-25 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important critical study of the history of public art museums in Austria-Hungary explores their place in the wider history of European museums and collecting, their role as public institutions, and their involvement in the complex cultural politics of the Habsburg Empire. Focusing on institutions in Vienna, Cracow, Prague, Zagreb, and Budapest, The Museum Age in Austria-Hungary traces the evolution of museum culture over the long nineteenth century, from the 1784 installation of imperial art collections in the Belvedere Palace (as a gallery open to the public) to the dissolution of Austria-Hungary after the First World War. Drawing on source materials from across the empire, the authors reveal how the rise of museums and display was connected to growing tensions between the efforts of Viennese authorities to promote a cosmopolitan and multinational social, political, and cultural identity, on the one hand, and, on the other, the rights of national groups and cultures to self-expression. They demonstrate the ways in which museum collecting policies, practices of display, and architecture engaged with these political agendas and how museums reflected and enabled shifting forms of civic identity, emerging forms of professional practice, the production of knowledge, and the changing composition of the public sphere. Original in its approach and sweeping in scope, this fascinating study of the museum age of Austria-Hungary will be welcomed by students and scholars interested in the cultural and art history of Central Europe.
