PJH55600Editions Plasma 1978. Ownership Signature of Roger Cardinal on endpaper Near Fine in publishers wrappers. Illustrated throughout. Attractive Facsimile of title first published in 1950. Roger Cardinal was one of BritainÕs most distinguished art historians best known for defining what is generally known as Outsider Art - that is art by people with no formal training. He began his career as a lecturer at the French department of the University of Manitoba Canada subsequently moving to Warwick University and finally to the University of Kent at Canterbury where he taught for fifty years and held a professorship. Roger Cardinal was not only a leading authority on Outsider Art but also on Surrealism. He was a prolific writer and a master of literary style. His eloquent percipient writings include several books on a wide range of subjects such as Outsider Art 1972 German Romantics in Context 1975 Figures of Reality 1981 Expressionism 1984 The Landscape Vision of Paul Nash 1989 The Cultures of Collecting 1994 and Kurt Schwitters 2011. He also acted as a curator and was a regular contributor to art-historical publications. CardinalÕs interest in art lay in its margins - the neurodiverse psychotic uneducated autistic self-taught and ÔotherÕ. His fascination with artists such as the violently psychotic Adolf Wlfli lay in their creativity rather than in the sensationalism of their lives. Certainly it did not lie in the resale value of their work. That outsider art should have its own multimillion-dollar annual fair in New York and specialist departments at ChristieÕs auctioneers ran quite contrary to CardinalÕs thinking.

156843Southern Netherlands Liège perhaps the middle of the 14th century. With a large miniature depicting the Wound in Christ's side A remarkable anthology of texts from the library of the Benedictine Abbey of Saint-Jacques Liège illuminated with one large miniature depicting the Wound in Christ's Side notable for its early date bound in the substantial remains of a medieval binding. It comprises four main parts the first with texts by Augustine Anselm and David of Augsburg; the second an ordo for giving communion to a sick monk; the third with prayers to the Virgin; and the fourth a miscellaneous collection of prayers devotions a miniature of the Wound of Christ and texts concerning the use of images. The volume contains one large miniature depicting the Wound in Christ's Side fol. 119v. The last few decades have seen an explosion of interest in medieval images of the Wound in Christ's Side. In most depictions of the Crucifixion the wound is shown as a horizontal laceration but when shown separate from Christ's body it is often depicted in close-up and vertically and this has led many scholars to read the image in other ways. As David S. Areford puts it "Although the mandorla-shaped wound suggested the presence of Christ's body and the totality of his suffering its fleshy form certainly encouraged other corporeal associations. In this regard several scholars have explored the erotic gendered and psychosexual aspects of these images interpreting the wound as a not-so-veiled substitute for the vulva or vagina". Images of the Wound in Christ's Side are often part of a series of images including his other wounds or are incorporated into larger ensembles such as the Arma Christi and are typically 15th-century so the present image is especially notable for its early date and for the fact that the Wound is the only image in the entire manuscript whose text concludes with two pieces discussing the use of images in religious devotion. The manuscript was written no earlier than the 1330s perhaps in northern France but more likely in the southern Netherlands and in view of the provenance in all likelihood at Liège. The involvement of an illuminator and several scribes some doing relatively short stints suggests collaboration within a monastic setting rather than production in a professional lay workshop. Provenance: 1 The Benedictine Abbey of Saint-Jacques Liège: inscribed with their ownership notes at least nine times in various forms including "Liber monasterii sancti Jacobi Leodiensis in insula" and with their shelf-mark "F. 57" fol. 1r. The presence of so many ownership inscriptions in any manuscript is extremely unusual and is perhaps explained by how small and potentially easy to steal this volume would be.
