Item description from seller

Bross., cm 24X17, pp XX-241, 1 tav. in b/n. Il duello raffigurato nel mosaico pavimentale del Museo Leone a Vercelli, fortunosamente sottratto alla demolizione della chiesa di S. Maria Maggiore nel XVIII secolo, esprime numerosi concetti della propaganda crociata: ce ne parlano la figura del miles Christi e quella del suo nemico, i loro nomi e le armi. Le fonti di questa immagine non sono limitate ai modelli figurativi romanici, ma formano una lunghissima linea di sviluppo partita dall?Antichità classica e dai testi cristiani del primo millennio (soprattutto per quanto riguarda l?idea del nemico orientale-africano); mentre le cronache delle prime crociate e delle prime battaglie del regno crociato di Gerusalemme forniscono conferme analoghe, fino a rendere il mosaico perfettamente corrispondente alla concezione dell?iter Hierosolymitanum coeva della seconda crociata (1146-1148). Infatti, la predicazione di questa spedizione coincise con la costruzione di S. Maria Maggiore, e in entrambe le circostanze la situazione dell?Outremer latino, le iniziative per soccorrerlo e la cultura della cavalleria occidentale fanno parte di un quadro unico. INDICE: FRANCO CARDINI, Presentazione - L?opera - I protagonisti - La figura di Fol: le mode del XII secolo e la morale - La figura di Fel: un?idea del nemico - Le facce - I nomi - Le armi - Conclusioni - Bibliografia.…
