Abstract

Au cours du XVIIe siècle la multiplication des traités de méditation et de contemplation sur les mystères chrétiens affecte radicalement aussi bien l'histoire de la spiritualité que celle de l'art religieux. Ces ouvrages contribuent à diffuser un mode d'appréhension des images qui nous permet de comprendre de façon nouvelle la réception des images religieuses à l'époque moderne.

Abstract

A companion to Mary Carruthers' earlier study of memory in medieval culture, The Book of Memory, her new book, The Craft of Thought, examines medieval monastic meditation as a discipline for making thoughts, and discusses its influence on literature, art, and architecture. In a process akin to today's 'creative' thinking, or 'cognition', this discipline recognises the essential roles of imagination and emotion in meditation. Deriving examples from a variety of late antique and medieval sources, with excursions into modern architectural memorials, this study emphasises meditation as an act of literary composition or invention, the techniques of which notably involved both words and making mental 'pictures' for thinking and composing.
