Moral Seascapes
On the Ethics and Aesthetics of Maritime Emergency
2024 || Paperback || Chiara Giubilaro e.a. || Leuven University Press
We are no strangers today to visual representations of human suffering at sea: the refugee crisis that continues to play out in the seascape between Europe and Africa (and not only there) yields an ever-growing archive of humanitarian tragedy. As both a visual backdrop and a lethal medium of unequal mobility, maritime space and landscape play a significant role in mediating the ethical demands of this crisis. Yet there has been little exploration of the longer history of morality’s role in ...

Inleiding in de iconografie / Druk 5
enige theoretische en praktische kennis
2002 || Paperback || R. van Straten || Coutinho
De iconografie is die richting in de kunstgeschiedenis die zich bezighoudt met de onderwerpen in de beeldende kunst en hun betekenis. Vooral bij kunstwerken uit vroeger tijden treffen we vaak voorstellingen aan waarvan de inhoud de moderne beschouwer niet zo één-twee-drie duidelijk is. Wanneer een zeventiende-eeuwse schilder bijvoorbeeld een vrouw met een leeg weegschaaltje afbeeldt, is de kans groot dat hij daarmee niet zomaar een aardig tafereeltje uit het dagelijks leven wilde weergeven.

The Art of Art History / 1st edition
A Critical Anthology
2009 || Paperback || Donald Preziosi || Oxford University Press
What is art history? Why, how, and where did it originate, and how have its methods changed over time? The history of art has been written and rewritten since classical antiquity. Since the foundation of the modern discipline of art history in Germany in the late eighteenth century, debates about art and its histories have intensified.
