Multo in Parvo: Joris Hoefnagel's Illuminations
MULTO IN PARVO: JORIS HOEFNAGEL’S ILLUMINATIONS AND THE GATHERED PRACTICES OF CENTRAL EUROPEAN COURT CULTURE by JOAN BOYCHUK B.A., McGill University, 2004 M.A., McGill University, 2006 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE AND POSTDOCTORAL STUDIES (Art History and Theory) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) August 2016 © Joan Boychuk, 2016 Abstract This dissertation examines the works of illumination produced by the itinerant Flemish miniator, Joris Hoefnagel (1542-1600), during his tenure as court artist to the Wittelsbachs and Habsburgs in the last two decades of the sixteenth century. Comprising illuminated manuscripts as well as independent miniatures, the works at the center of this study provide novel insight into Hoefnagel’s practice as an illuminator and also into the status and function of illumination at the Central European courts of Munich, Ambras, and Prague. Not simply extending a traditional interest in the medium at these sites, Hoefnagel’s works on parchment transformed illumination into a new form bringing together a range of practices and discourses associated with the courts, with humanism, and with emerging disciplines dedicated to the production of new knowledge. Artistically inventive and conceptually productive, Hoefnagel’s compositions helped shaped an identity for the artist as a hieroglyphicus—an initiate into and maker of a privileged language of representation. Unlike other medieval and early modern art, the illuminated page could bring together, on one surface, different media (text and image), genres (heraldry, portraiture, nature studies, biblical narrative, and ornament, among others), and modes of representation (realism, illusionism, symbolism, and abstraction). -

Leunissen May 2015 DALMI Working Paper No. 15231 The Artistic Migration Between Mechelen and Delft (1550–1625) Fiene Leunissen DALMI Working Paper No. 15231 May 2015 ABSTRACT Mechelen (Malines) is a small city in present-day Belgium, positioned between Antwerp and Brussels, along the river the Dijle. While most people today have never heard anything about this city or its history, this small town was once one of the most important cities in the Low Countries. It was also hub for the production of watercolor paintings. During the religious turmoil in the second half of the 16th century a large portion of artists fled the city to find a better life in other European cities. One of these places was Delft, were a group of 24 Mechelen artists settled. In this paper we look at the lives of these artists to better understand the knowledge circulation between the north and the south at the turn of the 17th century.

Works of Augustus Toplady
THE WORKS OF AUGUSTUS TOPLADY VOLUME 1 THE WORKS OF AUGUSTUS M. TOPLADY, A.B. LATE VICAR OF BROAD HEMBURY, DEVON. _____________________________________ NEW EDITION, WITH AN ENLARGED MEMOIR OF THE AUTHOR _____________________________________ IN SIX VOLUMES ____________ VOL. 1 ____________ LONDON: PRINTED FOR WILLIAM BAYNES AND SON, PATERNOSTER ROW; AND H. S. BAYNES, EDINBURGH ___________ 1825 As Published By Grace-eBooks.com 2015 Book I - Works of Augustus Toplady Memoirs MEMOIRS OF THE REV. AUGUSTUS MONTAGUE TOPLADY, A. B. ON perusing the pages of biography, we find therein delineated the achievements of various persons exhibited to the world, according to the caprice and mutability of human opinion. But when we turn our views to the infallible leaves of inspiration, we discover a just discrimination of characters, with that mark of distinction stamped upon them from heaven, that stands in everlasting force, and admits of no exception. According to Scripture testimony, the righteous and the wicked are the only two classes that mankind are divided into; whatever becomes of the ungodly, the sacred records inform us, that it shall be well respecting the present and eternal prosperity of believers. For, "the foundation of the Lord," or his immoveable purpose respecting his people, "standeth sure, having this seal," this authentic and inviolable sanction, "The Lord knoweth," the Lord loves, and will ever continue to take care of, "them that are his." We have many striking illustrations of the wonderful preservations experienced by the worthies of the Old and New Testaments, their whole history presents us with little else but a continued chain of miraculous providences. -

MARINE SPATIAL PLANNING in the ARCTIC: a First Step Toward Ecosystem-Based Management
PART TWO MARINE SPATIAL PLANNING IN THE ARCTIC: A first step toward ecosystem-based management A technical report of the Aspen Institute Dialogue and Commission on Arctic Climate Change Prepared by Charles N. Ehler, Ocean Visions This technical report of the Aspen Institute’s Dialogue and Commission on Arctic Climate Change was commissioned by the Aspen Institute on behalf of the Commission. The views expressed in this report are those of the author, Charles N. Ehler, and do not necessarily represent the views of the Aspen Institute or any individual member of the Commission. All efforts have been made to ensure accuracy of this report, but the author is ultimately responsible for all inaccuracies in this report. Executive Summary Driven by outside economic forces and the effects of climate change, the Arctic, its ecosystems, and its people are faced with substantial change ranging from the loss of ice-dependent species, more intense uses of the Arctic resources, including space, and the loss of natural services provides by Arctic ecosystems. International and national interests in mitigating and adapting to these changes has led to increased calls to manage human activities through an ecosystem-based approach. Marine spatial planning has emerged as an operational approach to translate this concept into management practice in many marine areas around the world. Marine spatial planning is a public process of analyzing and allocating the spatial and temporal distribution of human activities to specific marine areas to achieve ecological, economic, and social goals and objectives that are specified through a political process. MSP is integrated, future-oriented, participatory, adaptive, ecosystem-based, and area-based. -

Fr. Bienvenido F. Nebres, S.J., President of the Ateneo de Manila University Your Excellency, Ambassador Christiaan Tanghe of the Royal Belgian Embassy in ManilaYour Excellencies and Distinguished Guests from the Diplomatic CommunityAdministrators, Faculty, Staff, and Students of the Ateneo de Manila University, of the Loyola Schools, and last but not least, of the School of Humanities, a warm welcome to you all! Dames en Heren, Gooie Avond. Van harte bid ik u welkom aan de vernissage van de tentoonstelling “Putting the Philippines on the Map: The Belgian Contribution.” Mesdames, Mademoiselles, Messieurs, Bienvenu à tous et à toutes à l’ouverture de l’exposition “Putting the Philippines on the Map: The Belgian Contribution.” I first heard of Belgians when I was fourteen—in a Latin class in second year high school: “Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tres, quarum unam incolunt Belgae.” Translation: “Gaul is divided into three parts, of which one part is inhabited by the Belgians.” It is added: “Fortissimi sunt Belgae”—“The Belgians are the bravest [among these peoples].” Later on, at the age of twenty-two (young and full of hope), I saw a forgettable movie--“If it’s Tuesday, it must be Belgium!”—about a busload of Americans breezing through Europe in a week. -
