The Dumbarton Oaks Papers (DOP) were founded in 1941for the publication of articles relating to late antique, early medieval, and Byzantine civilization in the fields of art and architecture, history, archaeology, literature, theology, and law. Publication was suspended during World War II, and resumed in 1946 as collections of occasional papers, primarily by faculty members resident at the research institute. At first, DOP appeared irregularly, but in the mid-1950s it began to be published on an annual basis. It now includes articles by a wide array of international Byzantinists and features papers from annual symposia, miscellaneous articles, and reports on fieldwork projects sponsored by Dumbarton Oaks. Volumes currently average 300-400 pages.Since 1999 (Vol. 53) DOP has been made available in digital form through the Dumbarton Oaks website at http://www.doaks.org/resources/publications/dumbarton-oaks-papers

This book investigates the interaction between word and image in medieval Persian art. Greater Iranian arts from the 10th to the 16th century are technically some of the finest produced anywhere. They are also intellectually engaging, showing the lively interaction between the verbal and the visual arts. Focusing on objects found in the main media at the time, Sheila S. Blair shows how artisans played with form, material and decoration to engage their audiences. She also shows how the reception of these objects has changed and that their present context has implications for our understanding of the past. It is lavishly illustrated in colour. It features 5 case studies - on ceramics, metalwares, painting, architecture and textiles - that showcase the variety of Persian art. It investigates the interaction between the visual and the verbal in a multi-lingual society. It looks at the transformation of everyday objects into works of art. It is written by one of the foremost experts in Persian art.

Parmi les nombreux monuments qu'a conservés la ville de Rouen, la cathédrale Notre-Dame occupe une place privilégiée. Son histoire s'enracine dans le passé le plus lointain. Située au cœur du centre historique, qu'elle domine de sa flèche imposante, elle est considérée par tous comme l'emblème de la ville. Elle constitue aussi un précieux témoignage sur l'art des bâtisseurs du Moyen Age et sur l'évolution des formes architecturales du XIIe au XVe siècle. C'est enfin un lieu que maîtres verriers, peintres et sculpteurs n'ont cessé d'embellir au cours des siècles, nous laissant en héritage de véritables chefs d'œuvre, comme le vitrail de saint Julien l'hospitalier, le tombeau des cardinaux d'Amboise et bien d'autres merveilles.

In the fourth century the idea arose that the Cross on which Christ was crucified had been found by Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine. Thus began a legend that would grow and flourish throughout the Middle Ages and cause the diffusion of countless splinters of holy wood. And where there is wood, there was once a tree. Could it be that the Cross was made from that most noble species, the Tree of Life? So, gathering characters along the way, the legend evolved into a tale that stretches from the Creation to the End of Time. A Heritage of Holy Wood is the first reconstruction of the iconographic and literary tradition of the Legend of the True Cross. Its broad scope encompasses relic cults, pilgrimages, travellers' tales and the Tree of Life and involves Church Fathers, crusader kings, Teutonic Knights and mendicant orders, all of which influenced the legend's depiction from its earliest representation in manuscripts, reliquaries and altarpieces, to the great monumental cycles of the high Middle Ages. If the holy wood was the medium of medieval memory, A Heritage of Holy Wood reveals the growth rings of fifteen centuries of imagery.
