Anglo-Saxonf4v of On Vikingor type depicted.is The implications of this are examined in terms of surviving artefacts and other manuscript depictions. INTRODUCTION The art of the Book of Deer (Cambridge Univ Lib li 6.32) has received very little critical study until recently. Apart from those which appeared in Stuart's Spalding Club monograph of 1869 (Stuart 1869), reproductions have not featured widely in books about the glory of Insular art (Alexander 1978, 87). Werckmeister (1963) discussed some details of the style but the main publication on the art of the Book of Deer is by Kathleen Hughes (1980), followed by Isobel Henderson's short critique (1986). This short contribution doe t attempsno fula t l analysie th f so book but examines some of the iconographic and stylistic issues raised by Hughes and Henderson, in particular with regard to the origin of the manuscript. The book, begun in the 10th century, contains the four gospels of which only John is complete.

He clearly finds the Insular conventions of human anatomy and drapery a puzzle and sticks to his simple, sometimes awkward designs for every illumination. Significantly he omits any representation of the evangelist symbols. He also omits the common preliminary of the canon tables, an area where evangelist symbols are prominently displayed (O'Loughlin in Forsyth, forthcoming). brieA f surve Alexandef yo r (1978) suggests thamucs i t ti h more normal al havet o lt no f i , four tetramorphs, the leasnat t some combinatio gospels starthemthe nof the Deeof t at ,On . r f Iv (illus 1) ther hierarcha s e i figure o tw f yso carrying book satcheln si s around their neckd san two minor figures above. Figures carrying books in satchels are found on the Bressay and Elgin Cathedral stones (Hughes 1980, 28) and on the Cross of the Scriptures, Clonmacnoise (Henry 1967, pi 92). These objects recur throughout the book. If they are not satchels, they could represent house shrines tucked under the carrier's chin. On folios 16v, 29v, 41v and 84v the fish scale could be interpreted as a triangular tegulated roof. Hughes (1980, 28) sees an important precedent in the Pictish stone from Elgin which she describe s 'fousa r evangelists' closen O . r examinatio Elgie nth n figures are, more significantly, onl evangelistso ytw , Matthe Johd wan n with symbols, witwingedo htw , nimbed angels carrying books above (illus 2).

Like Elgin, there are two evangelists below, indicate theiy db r books eithed wingleso an , tw r s angels man-symbolso abovtw r eo , Matthew twice over. However, it should be noted that the same four characters appear around a cross and circle on the last page of the book, f86 (illus 8). It will be argued below that these represent four evangelists even if they look different. The next illumination is f4v, facing the start of Matthew's Christi autem. It is discussed at the end of the article since its sources are quite different from the figures on folios Iv, 16v, 29v, 41v, 84v and 86r. These carry around their necks either books in satchels or little house shrines as mentioned above uppee Th . r bodie like sar squasheea d vesica; they hav loopo etw s over their knees, a square skirt and semicircular feet projecting from a flat hem (illus 3).

Werckmeister (1963, 175-81) derives this pattern ultimately from early Coptic GEDDES: THE ART OF THE BOOK OF DEER | 541 pose. If this is so, he is a highly compressed image, encompassing two different figures. Henderson (1986, 278) interprets him as Zacharias praying, relating to Luke 1, but with his folded arms and satchel he is obviously also the evangelist. In Insular art, figures with horizontal arms extending beyond the frame often depict Christ on the cross, but probably not in this instance (see below, f85v)Lichfiele th n I . d Gospels, Luke (illu carrie) s13 s Aaron's buddin symboa s a d Jewisf glo ro h priesthood which also relate Zachariao st priese sth t (Henderson 1987,124) anothes i t .I r example of two images compressed into one. e stare figur th f Joh o Th t n f41a eo n s lik i v e Mark, wit a hsatche s i e l H (illu . 6) s accompanie armlesx si y db s little figures f whic, o onlo hytw hav emoutha maro T .greas khi t importance, ther crosa s ei s below him.

  • The Making of the Book of Kells: Two Masters and Two Campaigns
    The making of the Book of Kells: two Masters and two Campaigns Vol. I - Text and Illustrations Donncha MacGabhann PhD Thesis - 2015 Institute of English Studies, School of Advanced Study, University of London 1 Declaration: I hereby declare that this thesis has not been submitted as an exercise for a degree at any other university, and that it is entirely my own work. _________________________________ Donncha MacGabhann 2 Abstract This thesis investigates the number of individuals involved in the making of the Book of Kells. It demonstrates that only two individuals, identified as the Scribe-Artist and the Master-Artist, were involved in its creation. It also demonstrates that the script is the work of a single individual - the Scribe-Artist. More specific questions are answered regarding the working relationships between the book’s creators and the sequence of production. This thesis also demonstrates that the manuscript was created over two separate campaigns of work. The comprehensive nature of this study focuses on all aspects of the manuscript including, script, initials, display-lettering, decoration and illumination. The first part of chapter one outlines the main questions addressed in this thesis. This is followed by a summary of the main conclusions and ends with a summary of the chapter- structure. The second part of chapter one presents a literature review and the final section outlines the methodologies used in the research. Chapter two is devoted to the script and illumination of the canon tables. The resolution of a number of problematic issues within this series of tables in Kells is essential to an understanding of the creation of the manuscript and the roles played by the individuals involved.

  • The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, C.1164-C.1560
    1 The Cistercian Abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560 Victoria Anne Hodgson University of Stirling Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August 2016 2 3 Abstract This thesis is an examination of the Cistercian abbey of Coupar Angus, c.1164-c.1560, and its place within Scottish society. The subject of medieval monasticism in Scotland has received limited scholarly attention and Coupar itself has been almost completely overlooked, despite the fact that the abbey possesses one of the best sets of surviving sources of any Scottish religious house. Moreover, in recent years, long-held assumptions about the Cistercian Order have been challenged and the validity of Order-wide generalisations disputed. Historians have therefore highlighted the importance of dedicated studies of individual houses and the need to incorporate the experience of abbeys on the European ‘periphery’ into the overall narrative. This thesis considers the history of Coupar in terms of three broadly thematic areas. The first chapter focuses on the nature of the abbey’s landholding and prosecution of resources, as well as the monks’ burghal presence and involvement in trade. The second investigates the ways in which the house interacted with wider society outside of its role as landowner, particularly within the context of lay piety, patronage and its intercessory function. The final chapter is concerned with a more strictly ecclesiastical setting and is divided into two parts. The first considers the abbey within the configuration of the Scottish secular church with regards to parishes, churches and chapels. The second investigates the strength of Cistercian networks, both domestic and international.

  • UK Book Cover Designs 1840-1880
    ‘Handsomely bound in cloth’: UK Book Cover Designs 1840-1880 Edmund M. B. King Introduction and background Fig. 1. Lithograph image of the interior of the British bookbinding establishment of Westleys & Clark issued by the Philadelphia lithographer P. S. Duval some time between 1842 and 1850. The contribution of decorated cloth designs to the history of the book in the mid-Victorian period is real. The catch phrase in my title ‘Handsomely bound in cloth’ was used endlessly in the publishers’ lists, which were frequently bound at the back of their books. The focus of this article is primarily upon UK designs blocked onto cloth, or those using papier mâché. Despite the temptation, the lure of straying into describing the designs on cloth of other countries, of the same period, particularly America, has been resisted.1 Excluded also are designs printed, engraved, or lithographed onto paper, which was then pasted onto boards. There is plenty of merit in such designs, but it is not possible to This paper is an expanded version of the Homee and Phiroze Randeria lecture, given to the Bibliographical Society on 19 May 2015. I am grateful to the Bibliographical Society for inviting me to give this lecture. I owe thanks to Mirjam Foot, who encouraged me to undertake the work of describing Victorian designs on cloth, and also to Paul Goldman, and Robin de Beaumont, who were similarly supportive as the research progressed. I am also most grateful to Philippa Marks, Curator of Bookbindings at the British Library, for her support over many years, and particularly with regard to the use of the Library’s online Database of Bookbindings.
