The first part will explain the preconditions for the general development towards rhetorical gestures and draw parallels with El Greco's artistic development in the sphere of gestures. In addition, handbooks on gestures are introduced. The second part will analyse how El Greco applied gestures, using examples of his paintings ..It will reveal how El Greco developed some gestures over more than thirty years, and how he creates with their help an intense concentrated mood in his paintings.

    722 Book Reviews Audrey Nicholls, ed. The Arts and Jesuit Influence in the Era of Catholic Reform. Special issue of Studies: An Irish Quarterly Review 104, no. 416 (Winter 2015/2016). Pp. 131. 10 euros. This special issue of Studies published ten papers originally given at a 2014 conference at the National Gallery of Ireland in conjunction with its paint- ing exhibition, Passion and Persuasion: Images of Baroque Saints. It is always difficult for anthology editors to devise a general title for their volume that is comprehensive, self-explanatory, and accurate. In this regard Nicholls’s title is not especially felicitous, specifically concerning the “Jesuit influence”: read- ers should be advised that of the ten essays, seven have nothing to do with Jesuit art, spirituality, or influence, and of those that do, the essay (by John W. O’Malley, S.J.) takes up the matter only in its second half. Nonetheless, even specialists in Jesuit studies will find this collection, on the whole, worthwhile reading: the essays here contained are brief but almost all of them deliver much by way of new data and new insight, both those written by eminent vet- eran scholars as well as those by younger ones. The first essay, “Counter Reformation Countenances: Catholic Art and Attitude from Caravaggio to Rubens” by John Gash covers an extremely broad range of topics (though chronologically narrowly focused) in just twelve pages. The essay defies summary in the space of a short review so I simply borrow his opening statement: “By Counter-Reformation counte- nances, I mean three things: the portraits […] both of the leading figures in the movement and of some of the artists who enunciated Counter-Ref- ormation dogma in paint or stone; the concrete face of that ideology in terms of the works of art produced to reinforce it; and the shifting con- tours of Catholic faith, as it navigated its responses to the Lutheran and Calvinist challenges” (373).

  • Las Dos Versiones De La De Psalterii Anglicani Exemplari Animaduersio De Benito Arias Montano En La Biblia Políglota De Amberes*
    SEFARAD, vol. 74:1, enero-junio 2014, págs. 185-254 ISSN: 0037-0894, doi:10.3989/sefarad.014.006 Las dos versiones de la De Psalterii Anglicani exemplari animaduersio de Benito Arias Montano en la Biblia Políglota de Amberes* Antonio Dávila Pérez** Universidad de Cádiz En el octavo y último volumen de la Biblia Regia de Amberes Benito Arias Montano publicaba un breve texto titulado De Psalterii Anglicani exemplari animaduersio. En el marco de su defensa del original hebreo del Antiguo Testamento, su autor consideraba necesario advertir al lector de que algunos de los manuscritos más apreciados por los llamados «misohebreos» de su tiempo carecían de todo valor. Para ello, Arias Montano examinó un manuscrito hebreo del salterio elogiado como muy antiguo y relevante por el poderoso obispo Guillermo D. Lindano, y concluía que el códice era reciente y de escaso valor, cargando de paso contra la reputación científica de este. El ataque, fundamentado en parte en una falsa denuncia, sería el punto de partida de una controversia personal y científica que se extiende durate más de quince años. El presente artículo llama la atención sobre el hecho de que en los ejemplares conservados de la Políglota se pueden leer dos versiones de la Animaduersio montaniana muy diferentes entre sí. Con objeto de aclarar las circunstancias y motivos que las originaron, el autor propone: (1) reunir en un único estudio, por vez primera, el texto latino y la traducción al español de las dos versiones de la Animaduersio; (2) investigar, a la luz de la correspondencia privada de Arias Montano y de Lindano, las razones que propiciaron la existencia de dos versiones tan distintas de este prefacio; (3) y conjeturar una datación aproximada para cada una de las versiones.

His paintings marked a radical departure from the naturalism and careful modelling of the Renaissance, and as result were ignored for close to 300 years. Domenicos Theotocopolous, dubbed by the Spaniards ‘El Greco’, was born in the Greek Island of Crete and was trained to paint in the Byzantine style. After spending some time in Venice and Rome, El Greco adopted the Spanish city of Toledo as his home. Throughout the course of his artistic career El Greco’s style varied enormously. In Italy his paintings reflected the bright colouring and the loose brush strokes of the Venetian masters, such as Tintoretto, whilst in Spain the fervour of religious belief and lingering medieval sensibilities added an emotional intensity and deep sense of almost mystical spiritualism to his work. The result was a highly individualistic style of painting. Though criticised by many, El Greco’s dramatic style paved the way for the Baroque and later, in the 20th century, contributed to the development of Expressionism.

This hypothesis interestingly and prob- lematically intertwines the status of the perceptual image with the status of the represented picture. While o ering a survey of the main positions defended by ophthalmologists, psychologists, art critics and art historians on this optical issue, the essay tries to reject the false alternative between a physiologistic and a spiritualistic approach to art, both based on an unsustainable causalistic assumption.

    Recibido en: 18/04/2016 Aceptado en: 16/09/2016 EL GRECO Y EL ESCORIAL. DE FELIPE II A FELIPE IV EL GRECO AND THE ESCORIAL. FROM PHILIP II TO PHILIP IV AGUSTÍN BUSTAMANTE GARCÍA Universidad Autónoma de Madrid Resumen En 1577 El Greco llegó a España y consiguió en Toledo dos encargos, El Expolio para la Catedral y las pinturas para la capilla mayor de Santo Domingo el Antiguo, que le llevaron a la fama; en 1580 estaba al servicio de Felipe II, pintando el cuadro del Martirio de San Mauricio para la Basílica del Escorial. No agradó al Rey, que lo adquirió, pero nunca lo colocó en el templo. El cuadro causó una gran polémica, que recoge fray José de Sigüenza. Cuando Felipe IV renovó la decoración del Escorial, en las nuevas colecciones excepcionales que colocó, sólo hay obras de dos pintores españoles: José Ribera y El Greco con tres cuadros: la Gloria de Felipe II, San Pedro y San Ildefonso. En pleno siglo XVII, El Greco seguía siendo un pintor excepcional. Palabras clave Pintura española. Siglos XVI-XVII. El Greco. El Escorial. Felipe II. Felipe IV. Velázquez. Fray José de Sigüenza. Fray Francisco de los Santos. Abstract In 1577 El Greco arrived to Spain; in Toledo he was commissioned to paint two works: the Disrobing of Christ for the Cathedral and the altarpieces ofr the church of the con- vent of Santo Domingo el Antiguo, these two paintings came him to be famous. In 1580, Philip II commisioned him a painting of the Martyrdom of Saint Maurice for the church of the monastery of El Escorial.
