  • The Interior As an Embodiment of Power (Heidelberg 2018) - 57 - Wilson , ‘Furnishing the Dukes with a Royal Reputation’
    Furnishing the Dukes with a Royal Reputation: The Use of Chambers and Chapels at the Burgundian Court Katherine Anne Wilson (University of Chester, United Kingdom) Recalling his visit to the Burgundian court of Philip the Good in 1466, the Bohemian nobleman Leo of Rozmital remarked: when we arrived at the castle where the old duke resided, the duke Charles [the son of Philip the Good] dismounted and asked my lord to do the same. Then tak- ing him by the hand he led my lord into the presence of the old duke. The duke was seated in a hall on a throne which was hung with cloth of gold woven with great splendour, as befitted the ducal hall […] when they knelt a third time, at last the old duke gave his right hand to his son and afterwards to my lord. Then with one in either hand he led them into his chamber through nine other rooms.1 Leo described an elaborate residential complex of multiple connected rooms, in which function and furnishings were mutually dependent elements. Studies of the architecture of the elite resi- dences of later medieval Europe have confirmed this picture of an elaborate complex of rooms.2 Yet, in spite of the implication that function and furnishings were mutually dependent elements, there has been relatively little investigation of furnishings and still less of furnishings as an en- semble.3 Given the evidential constraints, this is perhaps not as surprising as it seems. Detailed contemporary descriptions of interiors are rare. Inventories taken on a ruler’s death do record furnishings, but one inventory can include close to a thousand objects.

As the kingdom of France consolidated and royal authority was extended, political power became centered in the person of the king and his bureaucratic advisers. One consequence was the decline or once powerful members of the feudal aristocracy and the queen. In the time of the early Capetians, the queen had been a true partner in power with the king, traveling with him and sharing the same household. But by 1500, she was excluded from power and participation in government, and her intimacy with the ld.ng was undermined by the formation of a separate household. By the thirteenth century the governmental functions of the queen were ceremonial, decorative, or sym­ bolic. Thus it was only under extraordinary circumstances that a queen could gain independent political power, and such was the fate of Isabeau of Bavaria. When she married Charles VI, ld.ng or France, in 1385, he was under a regency controlled by four dukes, but in three years Charles asserted his sole authority by releasing them.

CAROL M. CHATTAWAY ABSTRACT OF THESIS THE ORDER OF THE GOLDEN TREE: THE GIFT-GIVING OBJECTIVES OF DUKE PHILIP THE BOLD OF BURGUNDY This thesis explores the policy objectives underlying the gift of this Order, to sixty men, on jjanuary^T] 1403. Drawing primarily on Philip's household accounts, it undertakes complementary iconographical and prosopographical analyses (of the Order insignia's nature, form, materials, design and motto; and of distinguishing common features in recipients' careers, strengths, relationships with Philip, and activities in 1402-3), refined by reference to his policy concerns around the occasion of its bestowal, rigorously to test seven hypotheses.

G.J. van der Zwaan, ingevolge het besluit van het college voor promoties in het openbaar te verdedigen op vrijdag 18 mei 2018 des middags te 2.30 uur door Eliane Andrea Fankhauser geboren op 24 juli 1986 te Winterthur, Zwitserland Promotor: Prof.dr. K. Kügle This thesis was accomplished with financial support from the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO). Acknowledgements My first encounter with the polyphonic fragments which are the subject of this study happened on an afternoon at the Special Collections of the Utrecht University Library. The fragments were presented during a general introduction into the Special Collection’s keepings of music manuscript and fragments. Immediately, I was fascinated by the frag- ments’ formats, notational features, and music and text scripts. That a research project about these fragments would be anything but a simple undertaking was apparent from the very deteriorated state of some of the fragment leaves. Nevertheless, I was eager to delve into them. If only I examined them closely enough, these—at first glance—random assemblies of fragment leaves will reveal more about their genesis and history of use, so I thought. This idea kept me going during the whole process of doing research. That it proved wrong may be a disappoint- ment at first sight but really this is one of the most important insights that I will take with me in my further career.

  • Alabaster Tears the Mourners of the Tomb of John the Fearless, Duke of Burgundy 27 February - 3 June 2013
    PRESS RELEASE PRESS RELEASE ALABASTER TEARS The Mourners of the Tomb of John the Fearless, Duke of Burgundy 27 February - 3 June 2013 Started in 2010 during the renovation of the Musée des beaux-arts de Dijon, the international exhibition tour of the mourners of the tomb of John the Fearless will make its last stop at the Musée de Cluny. 39 figures forming the procession of the dead prince will be presented in a scenography highlighting the dramatic intensity as well as the subtlety of each of the sculptures. The mourners of the tomb of John the Fearless are to be counted among the masterpieces of 15th century Burgundian sculpture. They come from the tomb of the Duke of Burgundy and of his wife Margaret of Bavaria which was commissioned by their son Philip the Good in 1443. The first sculptor to dedicate himself to the tomb was Jean de La Huerta until 1456. He sculpted the delicately chiseled gallery, the mourners, the angels featured on the tombstone as well as the funeral helmet. His successor Antoine Le Moiturier carved the recumbent effigies from 1466 to 1469, and completed the mourners and the arches. It was required by contract that both artists’ final work should remain as true as possible to the design of the tomb of Philip the Bold, father of John the Fearless. Attributing the mourners to either 6 place Paul Painlevé one of them is therefore quite tricky. In the scenography designed for the Musée de Cluny, 75005 Paris the mourners, clerics and laymen altogether, some wearing long, hooded mourning cloaks, T.

Burke, Svante Norrhem, and Merry Wiesner-Hanks This series provides a forum for studies that investigate women, gender, and/ or sexuality in the late medieval and early modern world. The editors invite proposals for book-length studies of an interdisciplinary nature, including, but not exclusively, from the fields of history, literature, art and architectural history, and visual and material culture. Consideration will be given to both monographs and collections of essays. Chronologically, we welcome studies that look at the period between 1400 and 1700, with a focus on any part of the world, as well as comparative and global works. We invite proposals including, but not limited to, the following broad themes: methodologies, theories and meanings of gender; gender, power and political culture; monarchs, courts and power; constructions of femininity and masculinity; gift-giving, diplomacy and the politics of exchange; gender and the politics of early modern archives; gender and architectural spaces (courts, salons, household); consumption and material culture; objects and gendered power; women’s writing; gendered patronage and power; gendered activities, behaviours, rituals and fashions.
