1. Medieval manuscripts were complex handwritten artifacts that involved collaboration between scribes, illuminators, and decorators to lay out text, images, and decorations across manuscript pages.
2. The pages were conceived as "generative spaces" with meticulously organized zones for different elements. Reading involved a visual choreography of moving between text and image.
3. Manuscripts from the library of King Charles V of France show how he instituted a "politics of knowledge" through commissioning translations of classical works like Aristotle, which influenced authors like Christine de Pizan in portraying the king's virtues.
The document discusses early Christian art from the 2nd to 4th centuries AD. It describes how early Christian art was restricted before 313 but grew after Christianity became the official religion.

Purgatory part 3 ... dante & the council of lyons iiEdward Hahnenberg
The document discusses the history and theology of Purgatory through analyzing Dante's Divine Comedy and the Council of Lyons II. It describes how Dante depicted the seven levels of Purgatory corresponding to the seven deadly sins. The Council of Lyons II encouraged crusaders to liberate the Holy Land and granted plenary indulgences, or full remission of temporal punishment due to sin, to those who financially supported the crusade. This set a precedent that Luther later criticized regarding indulgences being sold for money.

The document provides an overview of the Protestant Reformation and key events that led to divisions within Christianity in 16th century Europe. It discusses figures like Martin Luther who criticized the Catholic church and its sale of indulgences. Over time this grew into conflicts and wars between Protestant and Catholic states, most notably the Thirty Years War. The document also introduces the concept of the Counter Reformation by the Catholic church to stem the growth of Protestantism. It provides examples of influential Baroque artists like Bernini and Caravaggio who worked during this period.
Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man (1492) was based on writings by the Roman architect Vitruvius that described the ideal human proportions that could fit within a square and a circle. This drawing represents the Renaissance ideal of using principles from antiquity to depict the perfect human form. Michelangelo's figures for the Sistine Chapel, such as his ignudi and the prophetess Sybil, similarly display classical ideals of balance, musculature, and contrapposto pose that were inspired by ancient Greek and Roman sculptures. During the Renaissance, many artists looked to works like the Laocoön, Apollo Belvedere, and Belvedere Torso for models to recreate the ideal human form.
This document summarizes the views of some Masonic scholars on the possible origins and early history of Speculative Freemasonry prior to its establishment in 1717. It discusses theories that link Freemasonry to groups like the medieval stonemason guilds, Hermetic schools, and Rosicrucians in the 17th century. However, it finds little direct evidence and argues that most theories rely too heavily on supposition rather than facts from historical records of the time.
This document provides information about works by prominent Renaissance artists for a study guide test, including Leonardo da Vinci's Madonna of the Rocks and Last Supper, Michelangelo's David and Sistine Chapel ceiling paintings, and works by Raphael, Titian, and others. It also gives biographical details on Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Raphael, describing their personalities, styles of work, and key commissions.
This document provides an overview of developments in Northern European art from 1400-1500. It notes that Northern Europe had stronger connections to pagan traditions compared to Southern Europe. Artists paid great attention to realistic details. The oil painting technique was invented, allowing for luminous colors. Printmaking also flourished. Early capitalism emerged in places like Flanders. Significant artists mentioned include Jan van Eyck, Robert Campin, and Hieronymus Bosch. Key works summarized are van Eyck's Ghent Altarpiece and Arnolfini Portrait for their intricate symbolism, and Bosch's enigmatic Garden of Earthly Delights triptych.
Early Medieval Europe: Hiberno-Saxon Manuscript Illumination
In the 6th century, Irish monasteries became centers of learning where monks meticulously hand-copied religious texts with elaborate illustrations, fusing Celtic, Anglo-Saxon, and Byzantine artistic traditions. Two famous examples are the 8th century Lindisfarne Gospels and Book of Kells, featuring intricately decorated pages with interlacing patterns and symbols representing the Four Evangelists. These Hiberno-Saxon manuscripts reflect the merging of Christian and pagan visual cultures in medieval Ireland and Britain.
This document provides an overview of art in Europe during the Middle Ages and Renaissance periods. It discusses how art in the Middle Ages focused more on spiritual subjects, while Renaissance art emphasized humanism and a return to naturalism inspired by ancient Greek and Roman art. A key development was the loss of Constantinople in 1453, which brought Greek scholars and knowledge of antiquity to Italy and sparked new interest there. Artists like Masaccio and Donatello developed techniques like linear perspective and freestanding nudes that advanced realism in painting and sculpture. Major Italian city-states like Florence also saw growth in wealth and civic pride during this time, as expressed through large architectural projects and commissions.
Gothic art developed in Northern Europe between the 12th-15th centuries and was typically rooted in religious devotion. It is known for the arched design of churches, stained glass windows, and illuminated manuscripts. During this period, people moved from rural areas into towns and cities.
The document discusses Romanesque sculpture from the 11th-12th centuries found on church portals and other architectural elements. It notes that while Romanesque architecture drew from Roman influences, sculpture style drew from illuminated manuscripts with exaggerated gestures and expression. Common themes in portal sculpture included the Theophany of Christ and the Last Judgement. The portal at Autun is highlighted for its vivid carvings by Gislebertus depicting the separation of souls by St. Michael and their fate as the blessed or damned as shown through their body language and reactions. The graphic imagery warned pilgrims of their need for salvation through the church.
Emperor Claudius I and the Etruscans by Keith ArmstrongKeith Armstrong
Emperor Claudius I who was born with cerebral palsy. Apart from being an emperor he was also a major Roman historian who was tutored by Livy (one of most significant Roman historians of all time). Claudius wrote a number of history books and he was one of the last major figures to be fluent in Etruscan. Emperor Claudius I first wife was Etruscan. He also wrote a history of the Etruscans which has since disappeared.
The document provides an overview of the transition from the Medieval period to the Renaissance in Europe. It describes how the fall of Rome led to the Dark Ages, characterized by feudal systems and a static worldview focused on spiritual realities. The Black Death in 1348 killed 30-60% of Europe's population, weakening social institutions. Meanwhile, the fall of Constantinople brought Greek texts to Italy, sparking renewed interest in antiquity. This led to the humanist philosophy of the Renaissance which celebrated human potential and secular civic virtues. Artists like Giotto began creating more naturalistic, three-dimensional works that marked the shift from the otherworldly Medieval style to the emerging Renaissance perspective.
Romanesque architecture features round arches, wall arcades or buttresses, cylindrical apses and chapels, and square, round or polygonal towers. It was the dominant style in Europe from the 10th to 12th centuries, incorporating both classical and Byzantine elements. Romanesque churches were built on a grand scale with long naves, aisles, ambulatories, and radiating chapels to accommodate large numbers of pilgrims. Thick walls and small windows supported heavy stone vaults, while buttresses braced the walls against the outward thrust of the vaults.
1) Masaccio was an early 15th century Italian painter who took Giotto's innovations in space and light further in works like the Brancacci Chapel frescoes.
2) In his fresco The Tribute Money, Masaccio introduced techniques like linear perspective, atmospheric perspective, and chiaroscuro to depict realistic three-dimensional space.
3) His fresco Holy Trinity in Santa Maria Novella was one of the first paintings to use mathematical linear perspective to depict space and features ascending figures to represent the journey from death to resurrection.
The document discusses Dutch and French art from the Baroque period. It provides information on several Dutch artists such as Jacob van Ruisdael, Jan Vermeer, Jan Steen, and Rachel Ruysch who painted landscapes and scenes of everyday life with great attention to realistic details. It also covers French artists like Nicolas Poussin, Claude Lorrain, and Georges de La Tour who painted in a classical style with calm, ordered compositions and idealized landscapes. The rise of the "Sun King" Louis XIV moved the center of European art and culture to France in the 17th century.
This document discusses various ancient symbols and their meanings. It analyzes 17 figures depicting pagan symbols representing concepts like the trinity, male and female principles, and fertility. Many of the symbols incorporate pillars, serpents, trees, moons, and suns to represent concepts like the linga, yoni, and various triads or trinities found in ancient cultures from Egypt, Greece, India, and Central America. The document seeks to interpret the symbolic meanings and origins of these figures.
The document discusses the materials, styles, and purposes of sculptures from different time periods and regions. It provides examples of sculptures from ancient Egypt, Greece, Rome, Medieval Europe, and Gothic periods. The sculptures range from religious icons to portraits to battle scenes, and are made from various materials including limestone, ivory, marble, wood, and terra cotta. Styles evolved from rigid poses in ancient Egypt to representations of movement in Hellenistic Greece to narrative reliefs in Imperial Rome.
The document provides background information on Lucas Cranach the Elder and his work promoting the Protestant Reformation through paintings and prints. As a court artist in Wittenberg in the early 1500s, Cranach was a supporter of Martin Luther and produced propagandistic works criticizing the Catholic Church. One of his most famous works was Passional Christi, a series of prints contrasting the life of Christ with the perceived corruption of the Pope. The document also discusses the Council of Trent's reforms of Catholic art in response to the Protestant movement.
The document summarizes key developments in Renaissance art in Venice and the emergence of Mannerism. It describes the Venetian school's preference for a softer approach to oil painting compared to Florence, as well as their willingness to depict erotic themes. Major Venetian artists discussed include Giovanni Bellini, Giorgione, Titian, and Veronese. The summary also characterizes Mannerism as a reaction against Renaissance ideals of balance, with elongated figures and unusual colors and compositions. Key Mannerist artists mentioned are Pontormo, Bronzino, and Tintoretto.
The Renaissance began as a rebirth of ideas and values from antiquity following the decline of the Roman Empire and the cultural stagnation of the Middle Ages. During this period, the Black Death pandemic killed 30-60% of Europe's population, weakening social institutions. Meanwhile, the fall of Constantinople brought Greek texts to Italy, sparking renewed interest in classical philosophy. Early Italian Renaissance artists like Giotto and Duccio began moving away from the flat, abstract styles of medieval art towards greater naturalism by incorporating perspective, anatomy and other techniques from antiquity.

Illuminated manuscripts, altarpieces, portraits, and the integration of sacred and secular themes in art are covered. French royal court art and art in Germany are also briefly addressed. Overall, the document analyzes the variety of media, styles, and subject matter prevalent in Northern European art during this period.
The document provides an overview of the Renaissance period in Europe between 1350-1550 CE. It discusses key aspects of the Renaissance such as Humanism, prominent Italian city-states, families like the Medici who supported the arts, and influential writers and artists of the time including Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael. The printing press is also highlighted as an important development that spread new ideas and learning across Europe during this period.
The Roman Catholic Church formed the bedrock of medieval European culture and held great religious and political power. In 1022 it established the College of Cardinals to elect new Popes. It used tactics like excommunication and the Inquisition to enforce doctrine and root out heresy. The Church also took on social roles like providing hospitals, schools, and aid to the poor. It held a near monopoly on salvation through controlling access to sacraments until the 16th century reforms.
This document provides an overview of medieval drama, including liturgical plays, mystery plays, and morality plays. It discusses how liturgical plays dramatizing biblical stories evolved and were performed in churches. Mystery plays depicting biblical narratives grew more elaborate and were performed in towns by guilds. Morality plays featured allegorical characters representing virtues and vices battling for control of a human character. They taught Christian principles. Interludes later replaced moralities, becoming crude farces with no religious meaning. Stage structures included mansions representing locations and a neutral acting area called the platea between them. Pageant wagons carried movable stage sets between performance sites.
Writing has been depicted in Western paintings for centuries, from ancient Roman depictions of women writing on wax tablets to modern portraits of people writing letters. Some key details that often appear include quill pens, inkwells, books, and sheets of paper or parchment. Writing was traditionally shown as an intellectual pursuit but became more commonplace in domestic interiors by the late 19th century as literacy increased.
The Renaissance was a period between 1400-1700 where new ideas in art, expression, and intellectual works flourished. Major writings from ancient Greece and the Middle East were translated into Latin, spreading new ideas. The Renaissance began in Italy, where wealthy merchant cities like Florence and Venice funded the arts. Notable Renaissance figures included Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Raphael, who pioneered new styles of art like realistic perspective and emphasis on individual subjects. The Renaissance valued humanism and reason over religious superstition.
The Renaissance was a period between 1400-1700 that saw a rebirth of interest in classical learning and values. Major developments included an emphasis on humanism and reason over religious superstition, and increased access to ancient Greek and Muslim writings through translations into Latin. This led to new ideas exploding across Europe. The Renaissance began in Italy, where wealthy merchant cities like Venice and Florence funded the arts. Iconic Italian Renaissance artists included Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Raphael, and Botticelli. The Northern Renaissance saw a continuation of medieval realism with an emphasis on details, landscapes, middle-class life, and portraiture by artists like Jan van Eyck.
The document discusses the history and production of illuminated manuscripts from antiquity to the medieval period. It describes how monks in monasteries meticulously copied texts by hand to preserve knowledge during the fall of Rome. Different scripts like square capitals and Carolingian minuscule are explained. The production process, materials, and roles of scribes, rubricators, and binders are outlined. Examples of famous illuminated manuscripts through the centuries are provided.
This document provides a study guide for a 9th grade art midterm covering the 1st quarter of the year. It includes information on key figures of the Protestant Reformation like Martin Luther and Ignatius of Loyola, who founded the Jesuit order in response. The guide also summarizes Baroque art and architecture, focusing on the works of Caravaggio and his realistic style, as well as Rubens' use of color. Additional topics covered are Renaissance architecture, mannerism, French classicism, and common religious symbols.

The document summarizes the key topics of an upcoming colloquium on tomb sculpture and concealment. It includes several quotes from historical texts highlighting the concept of concealing what is decayed or foul inside elaborate tombs and monuments, while presenting a beautiful exterior. Examples are given of ordinances for cleaning and maintaining tombs, as well as covering them at certain times, reflecting the theme of intended concealment versus display.
Top Eight Most Beautiful Illuminated ManuscriptsJuan Flores
The document discusses eight medieval illuminated manuscripts:
1) The Decretum Gratiani, a 12th century collection of canon law.
2) The Codex Aureus of St. Emmeram, a 9th century Gospel Book with gold lettering and illustrations.
3) The Lindisfarne Gospels, a 7th century manuscript produced in honor of St. Cuthbert containing the Gospels in Latin.
4) The Tres Riches Heures du Duc de Berry, a 15th century book of hours with lavish illustrations commissioned by the Duke of Berry.
Velazquez was a renowned Spanish painter known for his realistic portraits and mastery of light and shadow. He served as a court painter for King Philip IV from 1623 until his death in 1660. Some of his most famous works include Las Meninas, The Rokeby Venus, and portraits of Pope Innocent X and Juan de Pareja. The document provides background information on Velazquez and analyzes several of his paintings through detailed descriptions of his techniques and the subjects depicted.
Letters from New York; by Lydia Maria Francis ChildS7w5Xb
The Battery in New York City is as busy and chaotic as ever, with wealth and poverty existing side by side. While some dwell in opulent mansions, others struggle on the dirty streets. Street cries still fill the air day and night. However, the author has gained a new perspective and now sees deeper meanings in the scenes around them - in the interactions of people and in the foundations of society. While New York remains the same, the author has come to like it better due to their changed viewpoint.
This document summarizes a blog post by curators at the Getty Museum about connecting medieval art to the final season of the TV show Game of Thrones. Each week, the curators will post about medieval art related to each new episode, drawing parallels between themes in the show and artifacts from the Middle Ages, such as illuminated manuscripts. The curators aim to showcase pieces from their collection that cannot be physically displayed for long due to light sensitivity. They hope exploring these connections will help readers better understand the rich and diverse reality of the medieval period beyond common stereotypes.
William Shakespeare was an English playwright, poet and actor born in 1564 in Stratford-upon-Avon. He is considered the greatest writer in the English language and the world's pre-eminent dramatist. Some key facts are that he wrote 37 plays and 154 sonnets throughout his life and invented words like "watchdog". The Renaissance period influenced Shakespeare's works by sparking new ideas and allowing for more unconventional stories in plays, inspiring works like Othello that reflected Renaissance themes.
1) The document analyzes a 13th century ivory carving called the Descent from the Cross, arguing it was meant for private devotion rather than public display due to its size and precious material.
2) It claims the carving's owner was likely King Louis IX of France, as he was devotedly pious and could afford such an expensive piece.
3) The piece's iconography reinforces this, as it depicts figures significant to Christ's sacrifice and redemption in a way that aligned with Louis' focus on Christian ethics.

This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.

Charles V glosses
the stoic virtues
of his librarian,
Gilles Malet
Christine’s narrative logic.:
1. Story of wise king Charles
2. Charles = wise because
of books/translations of
Aristotle, Romans, etc.
3. Wise king <> library of
“wise books”
4. Wise king <> wise
librarian & therefore
5. Story of the librarian
34. 34
[In the 1360s], King Charles was particularly attached to one of his
gentlemen for his moral virtue. In particular, this man read and wrote
superbly, and possessed uncommon understanding.
One day, tragedy struck this man – Gilles Malet by name –when one of
his small sons was killed by falling on a knife he was holding while
running. This blow caused great grief to the father, Gilles Malet. And
yet, on that very same day he came to the King at the usual hour and
read aloud to him for a long while with his accustomed demeanor.
When the wise king – who appreciated virtue in all matters – learned of
the death of Gilles‟s son (after he‟d departed), he said:
“If this man did not have stronger moral qualities than Nature grants to
most men, paternal grief would not have suffered him to conceal his
misfortune with such self-control.”

Charles V, III, c. 21

Aristotle interested in showing how individuals
could enact their capacity for arete (ἀρετή) or
virtue.
Since arete (ἀρετή) connotes “striving to achieve
one’s potential,” it conveys perfectly the intention
of the politics of knowledge espoused by
Charles V as portrayed by Christine.
Aristotle –in translation ordered by Charles V – defines the fortitude the king
perceives in Gilles Malet as that which a librarian, like a king, must possess

London, British Library, MS. Harley 4431, f. 3r. Presentation copy of Christine de Pizan’s works, copied between 1406-1410. Christine, kneeling, presents her book – this manuscript – to Queen Isabeau of Baviaria, wife of King Charles VI. Paris, 1410 or 1412. King Charles VI was intermittently “mad” and Christine urged Queen Isabeaufot play a role in governing. Some of Christine’s works suggest political actions that the Queen, with Christine’s help and that of other women of the court, might undertake. So this image suggests far more than the image might suggest to someone who did not know the contents of the book of treatises Christine offers to the Queen.
Manuscripts contain a vision of a world of their time, and that record has a story to tell:1) The story of the manuscript as a complex object produced collaboratively by several individuals with their own thoughts & worldviews; (2) MS as a complex object with a story to tell about its history and the historical context that produced it; (3) a story to tell about manuscripts as visual objects, manuscripts meant to be viewed (like paintings) rather than simply “read”; (4) manuscripts as objects that contain a program for “visual reading” that integrates word and/as image = a graphic reading system.

Christopher de Hamel, A History of Illuminated Manuscripts (2nd edition, London: Phaidon Press, 1994), p. 64.The Ottonian emperors commissioned their manuscripts from many different places. This illustration from a Gospel Lectionary made for Henry III, c. 1039-40, was illuminated at Echternach Abbey. The picture shows the work taking place in the cloisters of the abbey , but note that only one of the two craftsmen is a monk. Perhaps lay scribes and artists were more common than we might have guessed. From: Bremen, Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek, MS b21, f. 124v

Dartmouth Library, Rauner Codex MS, f. 5r. If there’s no “picture” does that mean that there’s nothing visual happening other than the text? That’s a big difference between manuscripts and printed works. Non-illuminated folio, but with rubrics and decorated initials as aids to readers. Get quotation from Hugh of Saint Victor’s Didascalicon about the “technology” of page division as aid to reading.
The manuscript is now in the Bibliothèquemunicipale in Besançon, MS français 434. At some point the inscription was semi-erased, but deciphered at the end of the nineteenth century by AugusteCastan. See Delisle, I, p. 259.
