  • Interiors and Interiority in Vermeer: Empiricism, Subjectivity, Modernism
    ARTICLE Received 20 Feb 2017 | Accepted 11 May 2017 | Published 12 Jul 2017 DOI: 10.1057/palcomms.2017.68 OPEN Interiors and interiority in Vermeer: empiricism, subjectivity, modernism Benjamin Binstock1 ABSTRACT Johannes Vermeer may well be the foremost painter of interiors and interiority in the history of art, yet we have not necessarily understood his achievement in either domain, or their relation within his complex development. This essay explains how Vermeer based his interiors on rooms in his house and used his family members as models, combining empiricism and subjectivity. Vermeer was exceptionally self-conscious and sophisticated about his artistic task, which we are still laboring to understand and articulate. He eschewed anecdotal narratives and presented his models as models in “studio” settings, in paintings about paintings, or art about art, a form of modernism. In contrast to the prevailing con- ception in scholarship of Dutch Golden Age paintings as providing didactic or moralizing messages for their pre-modern audiences, we glimpse in Vermeer’s paintings an anticipation of our own modern understanding of art. This article is published as part of a collection on interiorities. 1 School of History and Social Sciences, Cooper Union, New York, NY, USA Correspondence: (e-mail: [email protected]) PALGRAVE COMMUNICATIONS | 3:17068 | DOI: 10.1057/palcomms.2017.68 | www.palgrave-journals.com/palcomms 1 ARTICLE PALGRAVE COMMUNICATIONS | DOI: 10.1057/palcomms.2017.68 ‘All the beautifully furnished rooms, carefully designed within his complex development. This essay explains how interiors, everything so controlled; There wasn’t any room Vermeer based his interiors on rooms in his house and his for any real feelings between any of us’.

  • Preghiere a Gesù Bambino
    CATALOGO GENERALE Shalom 2017 / 18 Sua Madre disse ai servitori: «Qualsiasi cosa vi dica, fatela». Gv 2,5 «In queste nozze Gesù lega a sé i suoi discepoli con una Alleanza nuova e definitiva. A Cana i discepoli di Gesù diventano la sua famiglia e a Cana nasce la fede della Chiesa. A quelle nozze tutti noi siamo invitati, perché il vino nuovo non viene più a mancare!». Papa Francesco - Udienza generale dell’8 giugno 2016 In copertina: “Le nozze di Cana” riproduzione di un’Icona del XIV sec. dei monaci del Monte Athos. 31 anni di storia Chiamati per chiamare Shalom è una casa editrice cattolica e mariana, nata il 2 febbraio 1995. L’idea originale si delinea già nel 1986 come risposta alla chiamata della Vergine Maria, la Regina della pace, che continuamente ci educa con materna sollecitudine a un serio cammino di conversione alla sua scuola: la scuola del Vangelo, della pace, della fede e della preghiera. La nostra missione Comunione con il Signore, comunione con la santa Chiesa, comunione con i fratelli. La missione dell’Editrice Shalom, cattolica e mariana, è quella di evangelizzare attraverso la produzione di libri di preghiera, oggetti sacri e di pietà, che conducano al reale incontro con Cristo e la sua grazia, ridando dignità e importanza a tutte le devozioni, anche quelle che la frenesia dei nostri tempi sta facendo scomparire. Leggendo, meditando, pregando si attinge a quei tesori di fede che sono propri della Tradizione della Chiesa, che vogliamo scoprire ogni giorno con rinnovato stupore, per poi viverli e annunciarli.

  • Alfonso De Castro on Vernacular Bible Translation and Christian Education
    Journal of Early Modern Christianity 2020; 7(1): 61–84 Dries De Crom* Alfonso de Castro on Vernacular Bible Translation and Christian Education https://doi.org/10.1515/jemc-2020-2018 Abstract: Alfonso de Castro (1495–1558) is known as a staunch opponent of vernacular Bible translation, who intervened on the matter at the Council of Trent. This article offers a fresh appreciation of Castro’s polemics against ver- nacular bibles, in light of a less well-known treatise in which Castro defends the right of the indigenous Spanish colonial population to be educated in the liberal arts and theology. It is argued that at the root of Castro’s misgivings about Bible translation is a concern for preserving traditional education as a necessary prerequisite for biblical interpretation. Keywords: Alfonso de Castro, Council of Trent, education, vernacular Bible translation 1 Introduction When Pedro Pacheco, Bishop of Jaén (1488–1560), travelled to Trent in the autumn of 1545 in anticipation of the upcoming council, he brought with him Alfonso de Castro (1495–1558), Franciscan theologian, humanist, Catholic apol- ogist and preacher.1 Friar De Castro taught at the Franciscan studium affiliated with the University of Salamanca, the centre of sixteenth-century scholastic theology.2 His reputation had been firmly established with the publication of Adversus omnes haereses, an encyclopaedia of heresies that would be dissemi- nated widely for years to come. His later works, De justa haereticorum punitione and De potestate legis poenalis, earned him a reputation as one of the founders of modern-day penal law. Between 1532 and 1535, Castro preached in the Low Countries, parts of Germany and France.

  • Max Planck Studies in Global Legal History of the Iberian Worlds
    The School of Salamanca: A Case of Global Knowledge Production Max Planck Studies in Global Legal History of the Iberian Worlds Editor Thomas Duve The book volumes in the Max Planck Studies in Global Legal History of the Iberian Worlds publish research on legal history of areas which have been in contact with the Iberian empires during the early Modern and Modern period, in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa. Its focus is global in the sense that it is not limited to the imperial spaces as such but rather looks at the globalization of normativities within the space related to these imperial formations. It is global also in another sense: The volumes in the series pay special attention to the coexistence of a variety of normativities and their cultural translations in different places and moments, decentring classical research perspectives and opening up for different modes of normativity. The monographs, edited volumes and text editions in the series are peer reviewed, and published in print and online. Brill’s Open Access books are discoverable through doab and distributed free of charge in Brill’s E- Book Collections, and through oapen and jstor. volume 2 The titles published in this series are listed at brill.com/ mpiw The School of Salamanca: A Case of Global Knowledge Production Edited by Thomas Duve, José Luis Egío, and Christiane Birr LEIDEN | BOSTON This is an open access title distributed under the terms of the CC BY-NC 4.0 license, which permits any non-commercial use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original author(s) and source are credited.
