Paperback,XXVI 386 p., 64 b/w ill., 156 x 234 mm,Languages: French. ISBN 9782503544229. C?est dans la France des XIVe et XVe siecles, en particulier chez les Valois, que le mecenat princier connut son age d?or. Jean de Berry, frere du roi Charles V, fut certainement un de ceux qui illustra ce phenomene avec le plus de faste. L?historiographie brossa en revanche un tout autre portrait de son neveu, Jean sans Peur, le reduisant a un fin politique, parfois manipulateur, loin du prince cultive amateur d?art. Et pourtant, nous devons au mecenat du duc de Bourgogne quelques unes des plus belles realisations artistiques de l?epoque, a l?image du Livre des merveilles du monde qu?il fit realiser pour offrir a Jean de Berry. La qualite des sources conservees a permis de reconstituer les collections de manuscrits en possession de Jean sans Peur et de Marguerite de Baviere, son epouse, donnant ainsi la mesure de la qualite de leur mecenat artistique jusqu?alors meconnu.

Hardback, VIII+472 p., 141 b/w ill. + 40 colour ill. + + ills., 190 x 250 mm. ISBN 9782503515106. This study deals with the work of the most prolific Dutch book illuminators, the so-called Masters of the Dark Eyes, named after the most conspicuous aspect of their style: the dark, heavily accentuated shadows round the eyes of the figures. With their elaborately illuminated manuscripts, these masters completely dominated book production in the County of Holland during the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries. Their work is characterized by an overwhelming wealth of decorative and pictorial richness, which is especially evident in the unusually ornate programmes of the Books of Hours, and a new type of border decoration derived from the Ghent-Bruges School. This style of painting was practised by many artists of differing talents, as demonstrated by the large number of surviving manuscripts. Not all of the illuminators worked in Holland. Some of them settled in the Southern Netherlands, others emigrated to England, where they illuminated manuscripts for members of the English court. This monograph seeks to order, analyze and evaluate the work of the Masters of the Dark Eyes, and to position their achievements within the context of book illumination in the Northern Netherlands during the 'Waning of the Middle Ages'. It explores a virtually uncharted territory of Dutch manuscript painting. The accompanying descriptive catalogue provides complementary information on more than 70 manuscripts, many of which have never been published at length before. The work is illustrated with a wide selection of colour and black-and-white reproductions. Languages: English.

Softcover, 155 x 240mm., 369pp., b/w illustration. ISBN 9789042921108. This analytical bibliography, compiled with the support of the University of Antwerp, represents a first, important step toward broader studies concerning the nature, function, and significance of propagandistic materials that have been printed and distributed since the seventeenth century in connection with pilgrimage sites in the Southern Netherlands. Two and a half centuries (from 1600 to 1850) of publications are documented. This is an intriguing period for such a study because Catholic clergy made great use of printed propaganda materials for their (often successful) attempts to revitalize pilgrimages as part of the Counter-Reformation. Consequently, there was a new surge of such publications in the Southern Netherlands as of 1600 that prevailed until the early nineteenth century, when changing ecclesiastical views of how one should experience the Catholic faith led many local clergy to publish new types of pilgrimage books. As tens of thousands of pilgrimage texts were printed in this period, only one essential sub-group of these publications could be featured here, namely those related to Marian pilgrimage sites in the current provinces of Antwerp, Vlaams-Brabant, and the county of Brussels. The resulting bibliography reflects the holdings of numerous collections and provides, for each publication whenever possible, a full transcription of the title page, the collation of the book, and notes on whether or not illustrations, dedicatory texts, and personal notations by previous owners are present. This work consequently provides a useful base of knowledge for those interested in a wide variety of topics pertaining both to the production of devotional literature and the extensive popular hold these pilgrimage sites had on people in and beyond the Southern Netherlands.

Paperback, approx. 200 p., 210 x 297 mm. ISBN 9782503545462. Les manuscrits decrits dans ce volume presentent des textes de genres divers dont la date de composition est toujours posterieure au XIIe siecle. Avec quelques exceptions, ces textes furent rediges et etudies en Espagne, en Provence, en Italie et dans l?empire byzantin. En continuite avec le volume I de la collection, les cinq premiers manuscrits decrits (Hebreu 704 a 708) donnent des commentaires sur le Guide des egares ou d?autres textes se rapportant a Maimonide. Ici encore, certains de ces manuscrits mettent en evidence l?existence ? jusqu?ici ignoree ? d?ecoles de philosophie et montrent a quel point la philosophie juive etait vivante entre le XIIIe et le XVe siecle. Les cinq exemplaires des Guerres du Seigneur de Gersonide (Hebreu 721 a 725) ont des caracteres codicologiques et paleographiques differents, car les ?uvres de ce grand philosophe etaient etudiees en dehors des ecoles. D?autres ?uvres, melant cabale et philosophie, sont inedites et pratiquement inconnues : la Pierre de Saphir, d?Elnathan Qalqish (Hebreu 727 et 728) ; la Perfection de la beaute, de Samuel Sarsa (Hebreu 729 a 732) ; les Demeures de Jacob, de Jacob ben Salomon Sarfati (Hebreu 733), livre en partie autobiographique et copie autographe qui nous emmenent dans la Provence du XIVe siecle. Plusieurs volumes sont consacres a l?explication des commandements et a la morale. Parmi eux, on releve deux copies d?un ouvrage du cabaliste Yosef Giqatilia (Hebreu 713 et 714) et quatre copies des Degres des vertus de Yehiel ben Yequtiel ?Anav (715 a 718), livre qui fut longtemps a la mode en Italie. Deux manuscrits renvoient a l?aire ashkenaze (Hebreu 709 et 712). Le second porte des textes polemiques du XIIIe siecle : celui de la ?« Dispute de Paris ?» (1240-42), la version la plus ancienne du Sefer Yosef ha-Meqane et un florilege polemique de citations latines en caracteres hebreux (en cours d?edition par l?auteur de ce volume) qui illustre des aspects inconnus de la controverse judeo-chretienne.
