Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
A Humanist on the Frontier explores the remarkable life of Sebastian Ambrosius, a sixteenth-century Lutheran minister and intellectual from Késmárk (now Kežmarok) in present-day Slovakia, formerly on the borderland of the Kingdom of Hungary. Through an examination of Ambrosius’ publications and correspondence, this book throws new light on the dynamics of urban communities in Upper Hungary, communication within the humanist Republic of Letters in both Central European and wider European networks, and ecclesiastical controversies. Adopting methods of microhistory and cultural history, it also reconstructs Ambrosius’ life by positioning him in various contexts that trace his relationship to, and interpretations of, themes of power, tradition, vocation, communication and identity.This book is essential reading for scholars and students of early modern European history, as well as those interested in microhistory, cultural history, and the Republic of Letters.

Beauty of Ugliness and the Ugliness of Beauty
Materializing Monstrosity in the Middle Ages
AvAnna Migdal,Marcell Sebok

Skickas inom 5-8 vardagar
Beauty and ugliness, two extremes that intersect through human experience, remain an inexhaustible source of creative inspiration and popular belief. In 'The Beauty of Ugliness and the Ugliness of Beauty: Materializing Monstrosity in the Middle Ages,' the editors aim to redefine the concept of the medieval monster by revisiting issues that have received little attention. This collection of five essays examines various topics, including the stigmatization of disability in clerical circles through canon law decretals, the duality of good and evil in the Latin world, the image of women in marriage contract negotiations, the interpretation of monsters as 'signs' or 'things,' and the evolving interpretations of medieval monsters in post-medieval contexts.
Practices of Coexistence
Constructions of the Other in Early Modern Perceptions
AvMarianna D. Birnbaum,Marcell Sebok
Inbunden, Engelska, 2017
1 613 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
The essays in this book provide interesting contributions to the ongoing debate concerning the representation of differing cultures, i.e., the “image of the Other” in the early modern period . They deal with images, projections, and perceptions, based on various experiences of coexistence. Although the individual contributions contain sources and references of iconography, this is not just another volume of art history or visual studies. As examples of practices in diverse historical contexts, the book includes a variety of textual material, such as literary productions, rhetorical exercises, dramatic applications, chronicles, epistles, and diary-like historical accounts that express ethnographic sensitivities. Thus, supported by a thorough research apparatus, these studies propose a new cultural history of the early modern coexistence of various communities, as identified in current research by young scholars. Another novel feature of the volume is the deliberate digression of traditional scholars’ focus and the investigation of rarely examined regions and practices. This approach allows the contributors to spotlight their special areas of research and to share a fresh new look at “the Renaissance.”

Promoting the Saints
Cults and Their Contexts from Late Antiquity until the Early Modern Period
AvOttó Gecser,József Laszlovszkym. fl.
Inbunden, Engelska, 2010

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
The studies in this volume concentrate on a complex set of socio-cultural phenomena, the cult of saints, in a variety of regions from Egypt to Poland, with a focus on Italy and Central Europe. The subjects of the contributions range in time from the fourth until the eighteenth century. The diversity of approaches adopted by the contributors—from literary analysis and historical anthropology to archaeology and art history—represents that open and multidisciplinary historical research that characterizes the work of Gábor Klaniczay to whom these essays are dedicated.
