Fino a pochi decenni fa dell’esistenza delle«camerae Lanzaloti» avevamo solo notizie indirette. Gli inventari del Palazzo di Piazza di Ferrara citano una «chamera de Lanziloto» che fu occupata, attorno al 1436, da Margherita Gonzaga, la giovane moglie di Leonello d’Este; e una «camera de Gienevere» – con dizione polarizzata dunque sul secondo membro della celebre coppia di amanti – si trovava anche nel castello di Sigismondo Malatesta a Rimini. Per venire infine al caso piú clamoroso, nel 1391 Agnese Visconti, figlia di Bernabò e prima moglie di Francesco Gonzaga, era stata decapitata al termine di un processo in cui, non si può dire quanto pretestuosamente, l’accusa aveva calcato la mano sui suoi presunti adulteri, il cui teatro sarebbe stata la stessa stanza nuziale del palazzo di Mantova, designata però dalle carte processuali con l’etichetta di «camera Lanzaloti». Si tratta di un’indicazione che sembra meno verosimilmente attribuibile a un intento di precisione istruttoria che non a una qualche malizia della corte giudicante, se si considera che la storia degli amori di Ginevra e Lancillotto continuava ancora a rappresentare, sullo scorcio del XIV secolo, e dunque un buon secolo dopo il notissimo e truce scandalo riminese che tanto colpí Dante, uno degli esempi piú famosi di tradimento coniugale. Da non molto, invece, un fortunato ritrovamento ha permesso di ricostruire nel suo aspetto e nelle sue reali dimensioni una di queste camere dipinte…

"During the Middle Ages in Europe, some sexual and gendered behaviors were labeled "sodomitical" or evoked the use of ambiguous phrases such as the "unmentionable vice" or the "sin against nature." How, though, did these categories enter the field of vision? How do you know a sodomite when you see one? In Seeing Sodomy in the Middle Ages, Robert Mills explores the relationship between sodomy and motifs of vision and visibility in medieval culture, on the one hand, and those categories we today call gender and sexuality, on the other. Challenging the view that ideas about sexual and gender dissidence were too confused to congeal into a coherent form in the Middle Ages, Mills demonstrates that sodomy had a rich, multimedia presence in the period--and that a flexible approach to questions of terminology sheds new light on the many forms this presence took. Among the topics that Mills covers are depictions of the practices of sodomites in illuminated Bibles; motifs of gender transformation and sex change as envisioned by medieval artists and commentators on Ovid; sexual relations in religious houses and other enclosed spaces; and the applicability of modern categories such as "transgender," "butch" and "femme," or "sexual orientation" to medieval culture." -- Publisher's description.

Mittelalterliche Werke waren als Kunst lange Zeit nicht vollständig anerkannt. Nur gegen Widerstände fanden sie Eingang in Museen, zunächst sogar allein zum Nachweis ihrer Minderwertigkeit. Mehr als Kunstgegenstände aus späteren Jahrhunderten erscheinen sie Betrachtern in Museen zudem als Fragmente, die aus ihrem ursprünglichen Kontext gelöst sind. Die geeignete Darbietung dieser Werke bildet bis heute eine Herausforderung für Kuratoren und Sammlungen. Die vorliegenden Untersuchungen von Präsentationsweisen im Ausstellungszusammenhang zeichnen die Musealisierung des Mittelalters von der frühen Neuzeit bis in die Gegenwart nach und ergründen den Wandel von Mittelalterbildern. Sie vermitteln Einsichten in Aufgaben und Ansprüche der aktuellen Museumskultur, unseren Kunstbegriff und unsere Vorstellungen vom richtigen Umgang mit Geschichte.
