La période baroque s'étend du début du XVIIe siècle au milieu du XVIIIe siècle. Réponse des artistes à l'exigence de grandeur solennelle prônée par l'Église catholique de l'après concile de Trente, l'art baroque, par sa monumentalité et son emphase, séduisit les grandes cours européennes. L'architecture est, sans aucun doute, parmi les arts, celui qui laissa le plus de traces dans toute l'Europe, parsemant le continent de magnifiques églises et palais baroques, à la hauteur de la puissance de ses commanditaires. Le Bernin, pour l'école du Sud, et Rubens, pour celle du Nord, représentent à eux

The period of the baroque (late sixteenth to mid-eighteenth centuries) saw extensive reconfiguration of European cities and their public spaces. Yet, this transformation cannot be limited merely to signifying a style of art, architecture, and décor. Rather, the dynamism, emotionality, and potential for grandeur that were inherent in the baroque style developed in close interaction with the need and desire of post-Reformation Europeans to find visual expression for the new political, confessional, and societal realities. Highly illustrated, this volume examines these complex interrelationships

Existem ou existiram cidades barrocas? Essa é questão basilar que o presente livro pretende responder. Para isso, o autor desenvolve uma investigação que tem como fundamento a averiguação da hipótese que assegura que o mesmo espírito que tomaria de assalto o mundo ocidental em todo o século XVII e na maior parte do século XVIII, contaminando a arte, a arquitetura, a literatura, a música, o teatro, teria igualmente alcançado a configuração visiva das cidades. Apontando para a atualidade do estudo crítico da História da Arquitetura, constrói-se a narrativa passando pelo sentido da “Urbanística Barroca”, na França e em Roma, e, posteriormente, frente às grandes contribuições dos mestres do Barroco italiano, discutindo o fenômeno da cidade barroca através da leitura do espaço e suas relações com os monumentos que compõem o drama barroco. O trabalho também aborda de maneira diferenciada como o fenômeno da cidade barroca se manifestou na produção da cidade brasileira setecentista, analisando particularmente Ouro Preto e, na América Hispânica, a cidade de Cusco, com todas as suas similaridades e diversidades.

This book investigates baroque architecture through the lens of San Gennaro's miraculously liquefying blood in Naples. This vantage point allows a bracing and thoroughly original rethink of the power of baroque relics and reliquaries. It shows how a focus on miracles produces original interpretations of architecture, sanctity and place which will engage architectural historians everywhere. The matter of the baroque miracle extends into a rigorous engagement with natural history, telluric philosophy, new materialism, theory and philosophy. The study will transform our understanding of baroque art and architecture, sanctity and Naples. Bristling with new archival materials and historical insights, this study lifts the baroque from its previous marginalisation to engage fiercely with materiality and potentiality and thusunleash baroque art and architecture as productive and transformational.
