Between the Pagan Past and Christian Present in Byzantine Visual Culture
Seller: Rarewaves.com USA, London, LONDO, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Hardback. Condition: New. ENGUp to its pillage by the Crusaders in 1204, Constantinople teemed with magnificent statues of emperors, pagan gods, and mythical beasts. Yet the significance of this wealth of public sculpture has hardly been acknowledged beyond late antiquity. In this book, Paroma Chatterjee offers a new perspective on the topic, arguing that pagan statues were an integral part of Byzantine visual culture. Examining the evidence in patriographies, chronicles, novels, and epigrams, she demonstrates that the statues were admired for three specific qualities - longevity, mimesis, and prophecy; attributes that rendered them outside of imperial control and endowed them with an enduring charisma sometimes rivaling that of holy icons. Chatterjee's interpretations refine our conceptions of imperial imagery, the Hippodrome, the Macedonian Renaissance, a corpus of secular objects, and Orthodox icons. Her book offers novel insights into Iconoclasm and proposes a more truncated trajectory of the holy icon in medieval Orthodoxy than has been previously acknowledged.RUS?????? ?? 1204 ????, ????? ??????????????? ??? ?????????? ?????????????, ???? ????? ???????? ????????? ????????, ???????????? ??????? ???????????, ????????? ????? ? ?????????? ???????, ?????? ???????? ????? ????????????? ???????? ?????? ????? ?? ???? ??????? ?? ??????????? ? ???? ????? ????????? ?????? ????????? ?????????? ????? ?????? ?? ??? ????: ??? ??????????, ??? ????????? ?????? ???????? ???????????? ?????? ???????????? ?????????? ????????, ? ????? ?? ??????? ??????, ???????? ? ???????????? ?????????????? ?????????? ??????????, ??? ??????????????????? ?????? ?? ?????? ???? ?????????? ? ??????? ?????????, ?? ? ????? ? ???? ??????????? ????????? ????? ?????????? ????????? ????????? ???????????? ????? ?????????? ?? ???? ????????????? ??????????? ????????? ? ?????????? ????? ?????? ?? ????????? ?????? ? ?? ????? ? ??????? ????????????.

The Bucolic Mode in Byzantine Art (Hardcover)
Language: English
Published by Arc Humanities Press, 2025
ISBN 10: 1802701850 ISBN 13: 9781802701852
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Bucolic imageryof shepherds with flocks in idyllic surroundingshas barely been studied in Byzantine art history. These images elude our usual analytical categories of imperial, sacred, and secular art, and challenge our assumptions about visual narrative. This book demonstrates that a bucolic mode existed in Byzantium in diverse media, such as textiles, sculpture, mosaics, silver, and manuscripts. Through a close reading of a select group of images, this book argues that bucolic themes were deployed to reflect concerns about the salvific effects of sound, the vagaries of the weather, and the contingency of imperial rule at different moments in the Byzantine era. The first study to argue for the significance of a bucolic mode in Byzantine art (humans interacting with other animals and nature).

The Living Icon in Byzantium and Italy (Hardcover)
Language: English
Published by Cambridge University Press, Cambridge, 2014
ISBN 10: 1107034965 ISBN 13: 9781107034969
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. This is the first book to explore the emergence and function of a novel pictorial format in the Middle Ages, the vita icon, which displayed the magnified portrait of a saint framed by scenes from his or her life. The vita icon was used for depicting the most popular figures in the Orthodox calendar and, in the Latin West, was deployed most vigorously in the service of Francis of Assisi. This book offers a compelling account of how this type of image embodied and challenged the prevailing structures of vision, representation and sanctity in Byzantium and among the Franciscans in Italy between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries. Paroma Chatterjee uncovers the complexities of the philosophical and theological issues that had long engaged both the medieval East and West, such as the fraught relations between words and images, relics and icons, a representation and its subject, and the very nature of holy presence. This is the first book to explore the development and significance of the vita icon. Through the aesthetic and religious history of the vita icon, Paroma Chatterjee investigates the shared problems of the Orthodox East and the Latin West concerning visual representation and the very definition of sanctity. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
