‎Hokuei. Masterworks of Osaka Actor Prints ‎

‎Gent, ludion, 2024 Hardcover, 288 pages, 29 x 23.5 cm, 150 illustrations.‎

‎The ultimate publication on Hokuei, the master of Osaka ukiyo-e printmakers and one of the most intriguing artists ever in kabuki-actor prints. Hokuei: Masterpieces of Japanese Actor Prints profiles one of the most intriguing artists ever in kabuki-actor design: Shunbaisai Hokuei (active 1828-1836). A culminating figure in Osaka printmaking, Hokuei produced more masterworks than any other artist of his day. The prints, all shown in color, are largely drawn from the most extensive collection of Hokuei's works to be found anywhere. The book presents two chapters on the artist's life and work, situating his oeuvre within the demimonde of pleasure and entertainment known as the Floating World (Ukiyo). An early chapter discusses the production of Japanese prints and leads into a central section highlighting fifty-six meticulously researched masterworks in remarkable condition. The world of kabuki comes alive in fascinating detail, while assessments of design and technical attributes bring into focus the achievements of Hokuei and printmaking artisans of his age. Of particular importance for scholars and collectors, there is a fully illustrated and annotated catalogue raisonné of 270 prints-the artist's entire known print oeuvre-including designs not to be found anywhere else. As an added bonus, all Japanese inscriptions are translated into English. Well-illustrated appendices cover essential tabulations of Hokuei's prints and their formats, his students, his artist signatures and seals, publishers, carvers, printers, theaters, a glossary, an index, and a bibliography. All-told, the range of comprehensive information featured in this publication make it a singular reference not only for admirers of Hokuei, but also for those interested in the world of actors on stage. - This is the first book about Hokuei - one of the most intriguing artists ever in kabuki-actor prints. Lavishly illustrated with over 150 prints, it brings the world of kabuki alive in fascinating detail. The book includes a fully illustrated and annotated catalogue raisonné of 270 prints (the artist's entire known print oeuvre). John Fiorillo is an independent researcher and writer on traditional and modern Japanese prints, with a particular interest in Kamigata-e ("Osaka prints") and Sosaku Hanga ("Creative prints"). Over time, he came to especially love and admire the actor prints produced in Osaka, a genre often overlooked by collectors and scholars. Mr. Fiorillo has regularly published in the art journal Andon (Society for Japanese Art, Leiden), contributed to the Hotei Encyclopedia of Japanese Woodblock Prints (2005), and designed and written extensive articles for the websites "ViewingJapanesePrints.net " (since 1999) and "OsakaPrints.com " (since 2005).

‎Ce livre est une invitation au voyage dans le temps, un voyage en musique dans le Moyen Âge. Comme le chant médiéval semble loin ! Ce voyage, forcément, il nous faut le commencer là où nous sommes, assaillis par le vacarme des temps modernes. Ô chants évanouis ! Chants d?hommes et surtout de femmes dans leur besogne quotidienne, dans leurs guérisons, divinations et danses ! Voix féminines puissantes, voix envoûtantes reliant la vie à la mort ! Chants retentissant pendant les siècles du Moyen Âge, vous ne retentirez plus jamais ! Mais la trace de votre symphonie immense demeure avec nous, pâle murmure, dans les harangues de l?homme contre les chants du diable. Ce livre est une invitation à voyager dans le temps, à entendre tous les chants du Moyen Âge et non seulement ceux du grand homme. En partant du vacarme des temps modernes, le lecteur découvrira une panoplie de musiques quotidiennes que les autorités ecclésiastiques nommaient jadis « les chants du diable ».

‎Sedition. The Spread of Controversial Literature and Ideas in France and Scotland, c. 1550-1610‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 324 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:6 b/w, 1 col., Language(s):English, French. ISBN 9782503589909.‎

‎Summary This interdisciplinary collection examines the notion of sedition in the period of the French Wars of Religion (1560-1600) and focuses not only on France itself, but also on Scotland during the reign of the French-born Mary Queen of Scots. Composed of eleven chapters written by an international team of experts, this volume concentrates on the political aspects of sedition rather than religious heresy, and covers writings and publications in a wide range of fields: politics, history, law, literature, and gender. A complementary feature of this collection is the spectrum of writings studied; they include edicts and treatises, pamphlets, broadsides, legal documents, dialogues, and satirical prose and poetry. Several chapters also address visual representations of sedition. An Introduction and a Conclusion provide synthetic analyses of the material studied in the individual chapters. This is a collection which will appeal to readers with interests in the history of political ideas and thought, the comparative study of monarchical government, and concepts of tyranny and resistance, discord, rebellion, and revolt.

‎John of Garland's De triumphis Ecclesie. A new critical edition with introduction and translation‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, 417 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:10 col., Languages: English, Latin. ISBN 9782503585116.‎

‎Summary This is the first translation in any language of John of Garland's poem about the historical events of his lifetime (c. 1195- c. 1258), together with revised Latin text, introduction and notes. This work gives a vivid picture of Anglo-French relations, of studies in Toulouse after the Albigensian Crusade, and of the need for faith following Louis' catastrophic defeat in the Seventh Crusade. John gives us insights into his own life, and a stream of stories, holy and profane. The translation and notes bring to life for a wide range of medievalists this eye-witness account by an Englishman in France of major events of the age, especially 1242-52. They make clear John's debts to classical authors and to contemporaries, especially Alan of Lille and Matthew Paris. Through re-ordering the lines, this edition now generates clarity from the single manuscript. It also offers fresh insights and a new perspective on John of Garland himself.

‎Jongkind, 1819-1891‎

‎, Réunion des musées nationaux, 2004 Paperback, 232 pages, Texte en Francais / Tres belle exemplaire, 300 x 245 mm, illustr. en couleur / n/b. ISBN 9782711847556.‎

‎Jongkind (1819-1891) aimait à représenter canaux et moulins de sa patrie, la Hollande, dans des scènes d'hiver où évoluent dies patineurs, ainsi que les ports. En France, son pays d'adoption, il trouva son inspiration le long des quais de Seine, dans les rues de Paris et sur la côte normande. Le peintre, qui manifesta un merveilleux talent d'aquarelliste, de dessinateur, et de graveur, acheva son existence près de Grenoble, à La Côte Saint-André. Si les Néerlandais sont sensibles à la tradition du paysage hollandais à laquelle se rattache Jongkind, les Français ont retenu très tôt ce dernier comme un des leurs. Jongkind en vint à être considéré comme appartenant à leur lignée, selon une filiation reconnue par Signac : " Il faut donc placer ce rénovateur du paysage moderne entre Corot et Monet, en tête de ces autres précurseurs de l'Impressionnisme : Boudin, Cals et Lépine. Et, comme il le souhaitait, comme il l'indiquait en se proclamant, dans les livrets du Salon, élève d'Isabey [...], il doit être classé parmi les maîtres de l'Ecole française. "‎
