  • 2010 Romanesque Confererence Abstracts
    ROMANESQUE AND THE PAST ABSTRACTS John McNeill An Introduction to 11th and 12th-Century Attitudes to the Past One of the questions the conference is implicitly posing is whether there is a discernably Romanesque sense of the Past - an attitude or set of approaches to the past different to that of, say, the fourteenth century - or the fourth? And whether there is any consistency in the way this might be expressed - both across media - and across regions. By way of an introduction this paper will largely concentrate on architecture, and look at the ways in which spolia - material fragments of the past - were reused. It will suggest that the allusive capacity of spolia was important in certain areas of Europe in creating an architecture which attempted to emulate the architecture of Late Antiquity, particularly in the second half of the 11th century, though for the most part spolia was used for very specific and local reasons. It will conclude with a very brief consideration of emulation and architectural referentiality. Eric Fernie The Concept of the Romanesque The Romanesque style is one of the most loosely defined and controversial of art historical periods. The paper will assess the case against it and then that for it, concentrating on architecture and examining in particular when it is supposed to have begun, how it related to the political units of the time, and how it is used in conjunction with other period labels. The presentation concludes with an assessment of the origins of the Romanesque in a broad historical context. Richard Gem St Peter’s Basilica in Rome c.1024-1159: a model for emulation? The aim of this contribution is to evaluate the possible role of the ancient basilica of St Peter in Rome as a model for architectural design and for religious practice in Europe between the second quarter of the eleventh century and the middle of the twelfth (from Pope John XIX to Pope Hadrian IV).

    GUIDE OF PAMPLONA PROPOSALS TO DISCOVER AND ENJOY THE CITY Index WHERE TO FIND US ............... 3 A BIT OF HISTORY .................. 4 PAMPLONA IS... WALLS .............................10 SAN FERMÍN ...................16 THE WAY ..........................23 GREEN .............................26 FOOD ................................32 WHAT TO BUY? .....................36 PAMPLONA ES MUCHO MÁS PRACTICAL INFORMATION ..38 Pamplona -Iruña in Basque- is a comfortable, warm, friendly and safe city for visitors, and one which is always eager to make itself known. Located on the Way of St James, Pamplona is the first city pilgrims come across on their way from Roncesvalles, a fact which has conditioned its history and character since ancient times. Its Renaissance fortifications are among the finest in Europe. Its parks and gardens never cease to amaze visitors. And in addition to all this, it has outstanding traditional food, based on the high quality of its local products, and a varied cultural agenda. Whatever the time of year, it is well worth taking a break to enjoy Pamplona’s cultural programme, its small music, food and art festivals, and all the events it hosts at both its smaller concert halls and larger venues: Teatro Gayarre, Navarra Arena and the Baluarte conference centre and auditorium. Finally, from the 6th to the 14th of July the unique and endearing Festival of San Fermín turns Pamplona into the place to be both for partying and culture of the highest order for locals and visitors of all types and ages. All these things and many more make Pamplona a capital full of history and stories with a highly distinctive identity, the fruit of its historical relevance and age-old culture.

  • Chickens in the Archaeological Material Culture of Roman Britain, France, and Belgium
    Chickens in the Archaeological Material Culture of Roman Britain, France, and Belgium Michael Peter Feider A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Bournemouth University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Bournemouth University April 2017 Copyright Statement This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with its author and due acknowledgement must always be made of the use of any material contained in, or derived from, this thesis. 2 Abstract Chickens first arrived in northwest Europe in the Iron Age, but it was during the Roman period that they became a prominent part of life. Previous research on the domestication and spread of chickens has focused on the birds themselves, with little discussion of their impact on the beliefs and symbolism of the affected cultures. However, an animal that people interact with so regularly influences more than simply their diet, and begins to creep into their cultural lexicon. What did chickens mean to the people of Roman Britain, France, and Belgium? The physical remains of these birds are the clearest sign that people were keeping them, and fragments of eggshell suggest they were being used for their secondary products as well as for their meat. By expanding zooarchaeological research beyond the physical remains to encompass the material culture these people left behind, it is possible to explore answers to this question of the social and cultural roles of chickens and their meaning and importance to people in the Roman world. Other species, most notably horses, have received some attention in this area, but little has been done with chickens.

  • The Illuminated Manuscripts of the "Légende Dorée: Jean De Vignay's Translation of Jacobus De Voragine's "Legenda Aurea"
    The Illuminated Manuscripts of the Légende Dorée: Jean de Vignay's Translation of Jacobus de Voragine's Legenda Aurea Hilary Elizabeth Maddocks Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Fine Arts The University of Melbourne 1989 ABSTRACT This thesis considers closely 28 illuminated manuscripts of Jean de Vignay’s translation of Jacobus de Voragine’s celebrated 13th-century compendium of saints’ lives, the Legenda aurea. Vignay’s translation, the Légende dorée, poses some particular problems for manuscript studies. The extant manuscripts can be seen to be accommodated by at least two major genres of medieval French illumination: the transition of vernacular, courtly literature and the tradition of devotional texts. The tension created by these two conventions can be reconciled if we regard the Légende dorée manuscripts as enjoying popularity with an elite and secular audience which was not interested in the text as much as it was interested in the illuminations, or more probably, in the status of owning an important scholarly illuminated work. In establishing appropriate genres for the manuscripts of the Légende dorée, the production of the books within the organised artistic workshop is explored. This has led to the conclusion that while in some cases compositions were freshly devised from the text of the Légende dorée, most illuminators relied heavily on standard workshop models and patterns. As well as attempting to place the manuscripts of the Légende dorée in the milieu of late medieval France and as well as seeking to explore the popularity – or at least the level of ownership – of this translation of a somewhat irrelevant and difficult philosophical work, the thesis also presents for the first time an annotated catalogue of all known manuscripts of the text.

Not so Charroux. Temptation abounds from artisan sweets and chocolates, to antiques, saffron, and interior design items. Stop off at Les Bougies de Charroux, a half-timbered shop selling handmade fragranced candles, for a real scent of the Auvergne. Fired up by the charm of Charroux, I study the map of my planned meander southwards and discover there are several more enchanting villages along my route, as well as two delightful small towns, both listed amongst Michelin’s 100 Plus Beaux Détours de France. So with time on my side, I decide to take some time out and investigate what they have to offer. South of Charroux, the A71 takes a straight course to Clermont-Ferrand, regional capital of the Auvergne, which is well-worth a stopover if time permits. South of Clermont, the A71 morphs into the A75 and a short detour west brings me to Saint-Saturnin in Puy-de-Dôme, home to one of eight outstanding churches on Auvergne’s Romanesque Route.
