‎Rubens's nine paintings in the ceiling of the Banqueting Hall, in Whitehall, London, provided the main decoration of this magnificent room, which was the focal point of Stuart Court ceremonial. Commissioned by King James I and his son, the future Charles I, following the destruction of the early Jacobean Banqueting Hall, their role in enhancing court spectacle came to an end with the fire that destroyed the rest of Whitehall Palace in 1598. The delay in executing the commission was due to matters of state, in which Rubens was involved as a diplomat. His stay in London in this capacity in 1629/30 made possible the realization of this commission. Rubens would have been aware that the Stuarts owed their position to the regal union of the crowns of England and Scotland, that his royal patron had now embraced his father?s pacific policy and that he was the more determined to impose an absolute rule, which his father had eloquently expounded in speeches ad treatises. These three themes form the central core of the cycle which glorified the reign of the late king, James I. The cycle presented Rubens with a great challenge, not only because of the novelty of the subject matter, but also because of the formal problems presented by the huge scale of the work. This volume of the Corpus Rubenianum Ludwig Burchard provides the fullest review to date of the history of the commission, it also unravels the complex preparatory work and places the subject matter in the context of early Stuart political and ethical aspirations.‎

‎One remarkable feature of European culture as it developed in the Renaissance was the accommodation it made with ancient paganism. The classical gods and their legends were allegorised, transformed into symbolic figures or emblematic scenes that might accord with Christian morality. At the same time a secular space was created in art for the depiction of the most popular myths, above all the love stories recounted by the ancient poets. These stories were not only attractive in themselves; they offered the opportunity to depict nude figures in narrative action, which the example of antiquity held forth as the highest goal for painting. Rubens was one of the greatest creators of classical allegory; he was also a supreme interpreter of the classical stories. No painter was so at home in the literature of the Greeks and Romans. When he painted for pleasure, which, increasingly in the course of his life, he felt able to do, he used pagan myth to express and celebrate themes of love, beauty and the creative forces of nature, often in wonderfully idiosyncratic ways. At the same time, as a Christian committed to the ideals of the Catholic Reformation, Rubens respected the restrictions generally placed on the depiction of pagan tales. Most of his mythological paintings were made for private settings, for display within houses (including his own) or in the galleries of princes, noblemen and prelates. It is happy accident of history that these splendid paintings are now widely visible in the great museums of the world.‎

‎Summary La carri re de Simon de Montfort - seigneur fran ais, earl anglais, crois en Terre sainte et dans le Midi de la France - n'a pas cess de marquer ses contemporains et sa post rit . Bien de ses compagnons d'armes ont vu en lui le plus pieux et le plus courageux des h ros, le mod le du chevalier du Christ (miles Christi). Cette image prestigieuse a cours de son vivant et apr s son pr tendu martyre au service du combat contre la d pravation h r tique. Cependant, dans les contr es occitanophones et dans la p ninsule Ib rique, sa r putation devient aussi celle d'un brigand, d'un barbare, d'un intrus tranger, cupide et sans scrupules. Les actes du colloque tenu Poitiers en 2018 reviennent sur sa vie et sur son lignage afin de comprendre l'homme dans toutes ses contradictions : le crois incorruptible en Terre sainte, mutilant toute une garnison en Languedoc, le vainqueur du roi d'Aragon, soumettant toutes ses conqu tes au roi de France, le spoliateur des seigneurs l gitimes du Midi, prot geant les veuves et le clerg local, le membre d'un puissant lignage franco-normand dont son h ritage se perp tue dans toute l'Europe. Simon est la fois le produit de son temps et l'agent de son devenir, un conqu rant et un perdant. Caract re sombre et puissant, il semble tre l'image de son embl me h raldique: un lion la queue fourch e.
