‎quête tibétaine de la sagesse. Prajñ?ra?mi (1518-1584) et l?attitude impartiale (ris med)‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 724 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:30 b/w, 35 col., 18 tables b/w., Language: French. ISBN 9782503603377.‎

‎Summary Prajñ?ra?mi (1518-1584), ou « Lumière de Sagesse », est le nom de plume sanskrit d'un auteur tibétain qui vécut durant une période de crise politico-religieuse située entre la pleine assimilation du bouddhisme indien par les Tibétains et l'instauration du régime des Dalaï-Lamas. Dans ce contexte d'instabilité, Prajñ?ra?mi se distingua par une formation éclectique exceptionnelle et un enseignement qui, centré sur l'idée de sagesse - ou gnose -, chercha à montrer l'unité des différentes traditions du bouddhisme au Tibet. Ses grands textes sont présentés et traduits dans cet ouvrage, notamment l'Ambroisie de l'étude, de la réflexion et de la méditation, et la Lampe qui illumine les deux vérités, qui traite de la philosophie de la voie du milieu (Madhyamaka). Sa biographie, ainsi que l'étude de son oeuvre et de son héritage, révèlent une filiation entre les renouveaux de l'école des Anciens (Rnying ma pa) durant la réunification du Tibet sous le Ve Dalaï-Lama (xviie s.), la nouvelle révélation de 'Jigs med gling pa (xviiie s.), et la floraison du mouvement « impartial » (ris med, xixe siècle) avec la collection transsectaire du Trésor des instructions spirituelles. Il se dessine ici une quête tibétaine de la sagesse qui, conjuguant l'histoire des traditions, le discours philosophique, le yoga et la contemplation, visait à une liberté intérieure conçue au-delà de tout parti pris, « intention unique » de tous les enseignements du Bouddha, ou, selon sa propre lignée de la Grande Perfection (Rdzogs chen), « sphère de la libération ».

‎Inheritance, Social Networks, Adaptation. Bronze and Early Iron Age Societies North of the Western Carpathians‎

‎, Brepols, 2025 Hardback, 820 pages, Size:210 x 297 mm, Illustrations:124 b/w, 277 col., 46 tables b/w., 2 tables col., Language: English. *new ISBN 9782503616773.‎

‎Summary How did societies change between the Early Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age? And what was the impetus that led to these changes - social contacts and innovation, intergenerational contacts, or perhaps simply adaptation? Taking these questions as its starting point, this richly detailed volume explores four different regions of southern Poland to compare and contrast the mechanisms that drove socio-cultural change in the region between the second and the first half of the first millennium BC. Drawing on standardized sets of archaeological data, the chapters gathered here examine the interplay of different factors influencing cultural change across five key parameters: environment; settlement patterns; settlement organization; economy; and material culture. The result is a beautifully illustrated volume that offers important insights into Central and Eastern European prehistory, made accessible for an English-speaking audience.

‎Egisto Macchi: The Assassination of Trotsky. Sources of the Creative Process‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 156 pages, Size:240 x 340 mm, Illustrations:60 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503593517.‎

‎Summary This volume traces Egisto Macchi's creative process for the soundtrack of The Assassination of Trotsky directed by Joseph Losey (1972). Through a close reading of the sources preserved at the Egisto Macchi Collection at the Institute of Music, Fondazione Giorgio Cini, (Venice) and at the Joseph Losey Collection at the British Film Institute (London), the book sheds light on the first collaboration between Losey and Macchi, which continued in the following years for the film Mr. Klein (1976). Why did Losey choose this apparently unknown composer? How did an avant-garde composer approach the cinematic system? What kind of audio-visual experience did Macchi and Losey explore through this film? To answer these questions, the volume deals with different aspects of the creative process, combining letters, notes, drafts, sketches, and the final orchestral scores. The introductory essay presents Egisto Macchi within the context of the Roman avant-garde and the cinematic environments of the Sixties and early-Seventies. The volume is complemented by a wide selection of sources reproduced in facsimile.‎

‎Milano, Silvana, 2012 Paperback with flaps, 280x220mm, 192p, 150 colour illustrations. ISBN 9788836622498.‎

‎In Spring 2012 the Museo d'Arte of Lugano will present in Villa Ciani a wide retrospective of the work of Tony Cragg (Liverpool, 1949), one of the most significant artists in the contemporary scene. Through some forty sculptures and assemblages, and a hundred drawings and etchings, the exhibition will retrace the artist's creative history from the late Seventies up to the most recent works. The exhibition in Lugano, and its accompanying catalogue, will however not be a simple presentation of the wide range of visual ideas and forms generated by the artist in the course of the years. The selection of the works on display and their sequence will also allow, together with the works on paper, to grasp the logic and the creative processes which lie at the basis of the most revolutionary shapes in contemporary sculpture. The catalogue will also include texts by Marco Franciolli and Guido Comis, as well as an interview to Tony Cragg never published before. English/ IT edition ‎

‎Renaissance Music in the Slavic World‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Paperback, 304 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:32 b/w, Languages: English, French, Italian. ISBN 9782503582429.‎

‎Summary In the essays collected in this volume, leading scholars from Croatia, the Czech Republic, and Poland, as well musicologists from Western Europe, take on the challenge of fulfilling a historiographical and cultural gap in music history by restoring the place of the countries of Central Europe that, as Milan Kundera put it succinctly, 'vanished from the map of the West'. The opportunity to consider 'other' renaissances enlarges the historiographical perspectives of Renaissance musicology, going beyond the traditional focus on the Franco-Flemish or Franco-Italian axis, and opens new scenarios on unexplored Renaissance music. What was it that happened on a cultural and musical level on the Dalmatian coast - influenced by the economic boost of a powerful Venice? The same question emerges when considering Habsburg Prague and its renewed, central role in the European political theatre, and as a reaffirmed capital that inaugurated a period of economic and cultural renaissance for the Bohemian Kingdom. How did the secularization process evolve in these territories, caught between the religion wars following the Counter-Reformation in the West, and the Turkish threat on the East? What peculiar features does the musical production of these territories reveal? The preference accorded to the expression Renaissance Music is not to be intended as a shortcut. The intention of the contributing scholars is to focus on, and to handle independently, the endogenous cultural production without considering it only as a phenomenon of importation or as the mere imitation of an existing model. In this way, borders reveal a dialectical function in the context of musical Humanism, revealing here, maybe for the first time, an authentic European dimension. The essays in this volume were undertaken within the framework of the European programme EACEA - Culture Programme 2007-2013 Aux confins de l'Humanisme musical: monde slave et culture méditerranéenne, developed between 2010 and 2012 by the Centre d'études supérieures de la Renaissance in Tours, the Matica Hrvastka - Ogranak Dubrovnik (Mediterranean Study Centre of Dubrovnik), the Univerzita Karlova v Praze, and the University of Palermo.

‎TEMPLE DECORATION AND CULTURAL IDENTITY IN THE ARCHAIC GREEK WORLD: The Metopes of Selinus‎

‎Cambridge, Cambridge University Press, 2007 Hardcover with dustjacket, 352 pages, 130 illustrations, 26 x 15.5 cm. ENG text fine! ISBN 9780521857970.‎

‎In this book, Clemente Marconi provides a new interpretation for the use of figural decoration in Greek temples of the archaic period, through a study of the archaic metopes of Selinus. The study of figural decoration on Greek temples has traditionally been identified with the broader study of architectural sculpture. At the same time, the original, articulated appearance of archaic temples has been fragmented into a discussion of individual types. Marconi argues against both the typological approach and the tendency to investigate style and iconography as two aspects unrelated to the cultural and social background within which temple decoration operated. He explores the relation between style and function and examines the function of figures on temples within the cultural and social context of the communities for which these images were created. Critical to this exploration are the reintegration of the figures into the fabric of buildings, the space of archaic sanctuaries and cities, and the ritual dimension that represented the context for the reception of the figural decoration of Greek temples.‎
