Since antiquity, artists have visualized the known world through the female (sometimes male) body. In the age of exploration, America was added to figures of Europe, Asia, and Africa who would come to inhabit the borders of geographical visual imagery. In the abundance of personifications in print, painting, ceramics, tapestry, and sculpture, do portrayals vary between hierarchy and global human dignity? Are we witnessing the emergence of ethnography or of racism? Yet, as this volume shows, depictions of bodies as places betray the complexity of human claims and desires. Bodies and Maps: Early Modern Personifications of the Continents opens up questions about early modern politics, travel literature, sexualities, gender, processes of making, and the mobility of forms and motifs.

Au centre de la journée d'étude « Des femmes et des livres » se trouve la question de l'appropriation des livres par les femmes. Les analyses de nature sociologique, qualifiant les livres en tant que productions culturelles à partir de l'identité non seulement sociale mais « générique » de leur public, y croisent les études visant à cerner la signification des livres à partir de leur fonctionnement linguistique et littéraire. Les études de cas alternées avec les approches synthétiques soumettent à des éclairages divers, sur une période de quelque trois siècles, les domaines de la France, de l'Espagne et de la Nouvelle-Espagne, et l'ensemble de la chaîne de production littéraire, de l'auteur et de l'imprimeur-libraire jusqu'à la bibliothèque, au lecteur et à la lectrice.

Criticism of monastic life by one of Europe's major Renaissance figures.In his letter Against Monastic Life (1514-17) Andrea Alciato, an Italian jurist and writer famous for his Emblemata, urges his friend Bernardus Mattius to reconsider his choice of monastic life. Alciato makes his argument by criticizing religious superstition, the Church's hierarchy, and monastic practices, particularly the Franciscans' hypocrisy, wealth, and divisiveness. Instead, he defends a stoic, civic humanism. Due to the troubled history of this unique manuscript and the inadequacies of the two subsequent editions,
