Bruegel's Winter Scenes Historians and Art Historians in Dialogue.
, mercaterfonds - fondsmercator, 54.90 Hardcover , HB, 300 x 240 mm, 352 p, 270 illustrations, English edition. ISBN 9789462302235.
This focused volume presents a deep exploration and new interpretations of Pieter Bruegel the Elder?s paintings of winter scenes. By applying new methodological approaches and interdisciplinary research to these masterpieces of Flemish Renaissance art, including Winter Landscape with Skaters and Bird Trap (1565) and the Census at Bethlehem (1566), both in the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, the book offers an enhanced understanding of the painter?s relationship to his time, and the extent to which his winter landscapes were meant to reflect real-life situations. After tracing how these paintings have been perceived and understood over time, the essays propose new insights into such issues as whether Bruegel depicts the plight of the local populace, which suffered greatly during the winter months, and whether the Census at Bethlehem contains a reference to the historical challenge to the central power structure, as has long been taken for granted. Abundantly illustrated, Bruegel?s Winter Scenes is both a thorough examination and a celebration of these widely admired images. Edited by Tine Luk Meganck and Sabine van Sprang. Sabine van Sprang is curator and Tine Luk Meganck is researcher, both at the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium.
City and State in the Medieval Low Countries. Collected studies by Marc Boone
, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 264 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9782503581231.
Summary The oeuvre of Marc Boone (Ghent, 1955) has become standard reading for specialists of medieval European towns and cities, as well as for those interested in the history of state building - most notably that of the Burgundian polity. Honoring Ghent University's venerable tradition of medieval studies begun by Henri Pirenne and building upon the work of his Doktorvater Walter Prevenier, Marc Boone also investigated taxation and the history of government spending, popular protest, and the persecution of "deviant" sexuality. Over the course of his rich career, he served as president of the European Association of Urban History and as dean of the Faculty of Arts and Philosophy of Ghent University. For more than twenty years, he taught the introductory course on historical criticism to every first-year student of the faculty, and thus had a major impact on the pens e critique of generations of young minds. Upon the occasion of his retirement in 2021, his former students have compiled this collection of some of his best historical essays, half of which have been translated from French and Dutch into English.
