Abstract

The third volume of The Cambridge History of the Gothic is the first book to provide an in-depth history of Gothic literature, film, television and culture in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries (c. 1896-present). Identifying key historical shifts from the birth of film to the threat of apocalypse, leading international scholars offer comprehensive coverage of the ideas, events, movements and contexts that shaped the Gothic as it entered a dynamic period of diversification across all forms of media. Twenty-three chapters plus an extended introduction provide in-depth accounts of topics including Modernism, war, postcolonialism, psychoanalysis, counterculture, feminism, AIDS, neo-liberalism, globalisation, multiculturalism, the war on terror and environmental crisis. Provocative and cutting edge, this will be an essential reference volume for anyone studying modern and contemporary Gothic culture.

Abstract

Notre-Dame of Amiens is one of the great Gothic cathedrals. Its construction began in 1220, and artistic production in the Gothic mode lasted well into the sixteenth century. In this magisterial chronicle, Stephen Murray invites readers to see the cathedral as more than just a thing of the past: it is a living document of medieval Christian society that endures in our own time.Murray tells the cathedral's story from the overlapping perspectives of the social groups connected to it, exploring the ways that the layfolk who visit the cathedral occasionally, the clergy who use it daily, and the artisans who created it have interacted with the building over the centuries. He considers the cycles of human activity around the cathedral and shows how groups of makers and users have been inextricably intertwined in collaboration and, occasionally, conflict. The book travels around and through the spaces of the cathedral, allowing us to re-create similar passages by our medieval predecessors. Murray reveals the many worlds of the cathedral and brings them together in the architectural triumph of its central space. A beautifully illustrated account of a grand and historically and religiously important building from a variety of perspectives and in a variety of time periods, this book offers readers a memorable tour of Notre-Dame of Amiens that celebrates the cathedral's eight hundredth anniversary in 2020.Notre-Dame of Amiens is enhanced by high-resolution images, liturgical music, and animations embedded in an innovative website.

Abstract

In de periode 1918-1971 werden in Nederland maar liefst duizend kerken en kloosters gebouwd. Religieuze kunstenaars worstelden met de manier waarop ze zich moesten verhouden tot de moderne, profane kunst. Sommige kunstenaars zochten de traditie, anderne de aansluiting bij de avantgarde. De laatste werd door de kerk met grote argwaan bekeken. In overleg met hun opdrachtgevers zochten de meeste religieuze kunstenaars een compromis tussen kerkelijke traditie en moderne kunst. Deze kerkelijke kunst wordt nu bedreigd door sloop en vernietiging. Daarmee komt dit boek precies op tijd.0In het boek komen onder meer aan de orde: het glas-in-loodensemble van Lodewijk Schelfhout in de kweekschool in Hilversum; de kerkbouwers Jan van Hardeveld, Jean Huijsmans, Harry Nefkens en Jos Schijvens en de kerkschilder Jaap Min. Ook aan bod komen de bouwkundige identiteit van de wijk Geitenkamp in Arnhem, het Sint Sebastianusbeeld van Zadkine in het Van Abbemuseum, het christelijke oeuvre van Jan Sluijters en de controversiële kruiswegen van Toorop, Servaes, De Haas en Tytgat. Dan gaat het ook over kunstwerken die breken met de christelijke traditie: de voor Nederland unieke koorwand uit 1968 van Libert Ramaekers in Sittard en de even bijzondere Aktion im Moor van Joseph Beuys uit 1971 in de Peel. De teksten in dit boek werden geschreven door jonge kunst- en cultuurwetenschappers van de Open Universiteit, onder leiding van Jos Pouls.
