Book Synopsis Constantine the African and ‘Alī Ibn al-‘Abbās al-Mağūsī by : Danielle Jacquart
Download or read book Constantine the African and ‘Alī Ibn al-‘Abbās al-Mağūsī written by Danielle Jacquart and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the tenth-century Kāmil as-sinā‘a (or al-Kitāb al-malakī) of ‘Alī ibn al-‘Abbās al-Mağūsī was adapted for a Latin-reading audience by Constantine the African in the late eleventh century, the medieval West had, for the first time, the opportunity to use a text which covered the whole of medicine. But the 100-odd extant manuscripts suggest that Contantine's Pantegni was put together over a considerable period of time, and chapters from other Latin and newly-translated Arabic medical works were added to or substituted those of the Kāmil. This book is the first to be devoted to Constantine the African: it sheds light on the School of Salerno and the formation of a medical corpus in the High Middle Ages.
Book Synopsis Hungary and the Hungarians by : Enikő Csukovits
Download or read book Hungary and the Hungarians written by Enikő Csukovits and published by Viella Libreria Editrice. This book was released on 2020-09-14T17:35:00+02:00 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Middle Ages the majority of people in Western Europe never met any Hungarians. They didn’t even hear about them, as news about Hungary only reached Western Europe in times of extraordinary historical events– such as the adoption of Christianity at the turn of the 11th century, or the devastating Tatar invasion in 1241-1242. Obtaining information about the Hungarians from books was also difficult, as medieval Europe, even as late as in the 15th-16th centuries, lacked libraries that would have offered greater numbers of works on Hungary or on Hungarian topics. On top of it all, works that contained the most detailed and accurate information remained unknown, in their own period; posterity only found them in rare manuscript copies discovered much later. Yet once collected, we find that these sources, originating from distant parts of the continent and written for different purposes, contain information about Hungary and the Hungarians that most often reaffirm one another. This work examines these sources and sets out to answer four major questions: What did people in medieval Western Europe know, think, and believe about the Hungarians and Hungary? To what degree was this knowledge constant or fluid over the centuries that made up the medieval era, and were changes in knowledge followed by any changes in appreciation? Where was the country located in the hierarchy of European countries on the basis of the knowledge, suppositions, and beliefs relating to it? What were the most important elements in this image of the Hungarians and of Hungary, and which of them became the most enduring stereotypes?

Book Synopsis Icons of Sound by : Bissera V. Pentcheva
Download or read book Icons of Sound written by Bissera V. Pentcheva and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-23 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Icons of Sound: Voice, Architecture, and Imagination in Medieval Art brings together art history and sound studies to offer new perspectives on medieval churches and cathedrals as spaces where the perception of the visual is inherently shaped by sound. The chapters encompass a wide geographic and historical range, from the fifth to the fifteenth century, and from Armenia and Byzantium to Venice, Rome, and Santiago de Compostela. Contributors offer nuanced explorations of the intangible sonic aura produced in these places by the ritual music and harness the use of digital technology to reconstruct historical aural environments. Rooted in a decade-long interdisciplinary research project at Stanford University, Icons of Sound expands our understanding of the inherently intertwined relationship between medieval chant and liturgy, the acoustics of architectural spaces, and their visual aesthetics. Together, the contributors provide insights that are relevant across art history, sound studies, musicology, and medieval studies.

Book Synopsis The Romanesque Frieze and Its Spectator by : Deborah Kahn
Download or read book The Romanesque Frieze and Its Spectator written by Deborah Kahn and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume provides an introduction to the much neglected topic of sculptural friezes, ranging from England to Normandy, the Loire Valley and Northern Italy. Frieze sculpture has until now been one of the least studied aspects of Romanesque art, though examples are to be found all over Europe, set in facades and external walls of many churches. The essays collected here reflect the diversity of aspects considered: problems of narrative and iconography, regional groups, filiations, and conservation. Summarized in English and in French, the papers have further significance in establishing a record of the present state of some of the great architectural decoration in the medieval European tradition.
