  • Alexander Nagel Some Discoveries of 1492
    The Seventeenth Gerson Lecture held in memory of Horst Gerson (1907-1978) in the aula of the University of Groningen on the 14th of November 2013 Alexander Nagel Some discoveries of 1492: Eastern antiquities and Renaissance Europe Groningen The Gerson Lectures Foundation 2013 Some discoveries of 1492: Eastern antiquities and Renaissance Europe Before you is a painting by Andrea Mantegna in an unusual medium, distemper on linen, a technique he used for a few of his smaller devotional paintings (fig. 1). Mantegna mixed ground minerals with animal glue, the kind used to size or seal a canvas, and applied the colors to a piece of fine linen prepared with only a very light coat of gesso. Distemper remains water soluble after drying, which allows the painter greater flexibility in blending new paint into existing paint than is afforded by the egg tempera technique. In lesser hands, such opportunities can produce muddy results, but Mantegna used it to produce passages of extraordinarily fine modeling, for example in the flesh of the Virgin’s face and in the turbans of wound cloth worn by her and two of the Magi. Another advantage of the technique is that it produces luminous colors with a matte finish, making forms legible and brilliant, without glare, even in low light. This work’s surface was left exposed, dirtying it, and in an effort to heighten the colors early restorers applied varnish—a bad idea, since unlike oil and egg tempera distem- per absorbs varnish, leaving the paint stained and darkened.1 Try to imagine it in its original brilliant colors, subtly modeled throughout and enamel smooth, inviting us to 1 Andrea Mantegna approach close, like the Magi.

  • Exploration, Discovery, and Settlement: 1492-1700 the Original
    Exploration, Discovery, and Settlement: 1492-1700 The original exploration, discovery, and settlement of North and South America occurred thousands of years before Christopher Columbus was born. Many archeologists now believe that the first people to settle North America arrived as much as 40,000 years ago. At that time, waves of migrants from Asia may have crossed a ______ _____ that then connected Siberia and Alaska (a bridge now submerged under the Bering Sea). Over a long period of time, successive generations migrated southward from the Arctic Circle to the southern tip of South America. The first Americans (________ Americans) adapted to the varied environments of the regions that they found. They divided into hundreds of tribes, spoke different languages, and practiced different cultures. Estimates of the Native population in the Americas in the 1490s vary from ___ to ___ million persons. Cultures of North America Estimates vary widely as to the population in the region north of Mexico (present-day U.S. & Canada) in the 1490s, when Columbus made his historic voyages. From under __ million to over ____ million people may have been spread across this area. Small settlements Most of the Native Americans lived in semi-permanent settlements, each with a small population seldom exceeding ___. The men spent their time making tools and hunting for game, while the women grew crops such as corn, beans, and tobacco. Some tribes were more _______ than others. On the Great Plains, for example, the Sioux and the Pawnee followed the ______ herds.

Despite this, no consensus has been reached among historians as to the reason for their continued use, with the notable exception of ensuring the production of a legitimate heir. This thesis will argue that the creation and maintenance of alliances was the most important motivating factor for English, Castilian and Aragonese monarchs. Territorial concerns, such as the protection and acquisition of lands, as well as attempts to secure peace between warring kingdoms, were also influential elements considered when arranging dynastic marriages. Other less common motives which were specific to individual marriages depended upon the political, economic, social and dynastic priorities of the time in which they were contracted.

Goodman: European Chivalry in the 1490s EUROPEAN CHIVALRY IN THE 1490S JENNIFER R. GOODMAN This paper calls to remembrance an older world of the 1490s, one not often revisted by students of the Age of Discovery. This excursion offers a new path towards the better understanding of the Europeans of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries through the reexamination of the international chivalric culture of christian Europe. In the case of chivalry, pejorative judgement has distracted us from a striking process of creative adaptation. This paper's first goal is to give some idea of the atmosphere of the decade, of the pervasiveness of this chivalric element. Chiv- alry functioned as a medium for international understanding and communication, a common social, cultural, political, and even re- ligious language. It also provided an arena of competition be- tween individuals and groups. This study stresses the interna- tional character of this literature, and of this European chivalric ideology, with, of course, important national variations.

Yet although these aspects of the explorations grab the imagination, they provide little information about why the expeditions were mounted or what the nature of England’s early involvement in North America was. This paper will attempt to rectify this imbalance by asking and seeking to answer some of the questions about the voyages that are rarely posed. In particular it will address the issue of why Bristol’s merchants became interested in westward discovery in the first place and why they then lost interest in Newfoundland until the late 16th century, leaving the exploitation of the fisheries to the French, Portuguese and Spanish.

  • Girl Scout Marian Medal Leader Guide
    Girl Scout Marian Medal Leader Guide An Introduction to the Image of the Virgin Mary in Art Madonna is a medieval Italian term for a noble or important woman, in this case Mary, either alone or holding the Baby Jesus. “Madonna” translates to “my lady.” Most often, She is seated, holding the baby Jesus, shown in half-length or full length. For over a thousand years, Byzantine, Medieval and Early Renaissance artists were attracted to the image of the Virgin Mary out of either personal devotion, to demonstrate their own artistic abilities or to meet the visual needs of their patrons for spiritual expression. Mary’s image has helped many Christian faithful focus their prayers and intentions during their devotional practices. No other image permeates Christian art, more than that of the Madonna and Child. To manage the huge volume of these images, art historians and religious scholars have identified five classifications or groups of Madonna images based on their physical structures as well as three themes or classifications which examine the relationship between the Virgin Mary and the Christ Child. These classifications include the physical structure of a painting or sculpture; the time of the work; or the relationship and attitude toward the Christ Child that is being represented. These five classes are: 1. The Portrait Madonna – the figure(s) in half-length against an indefinite background, the most popular form chosen by the artists of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Full-standing images of the Madonna more frequently included the infant Jesus, and were usually found in sculpture form.
