"Can the reception of a single, widely disseminated book offer a historical road map for a global art history? This is the question posed by the editors of this volume of essays, which charts the enduring response to the Swiss art historian Heinrich Wölfflin’s Principles of Art History, first published in German in 1915. Translated into 22 languages and still in print in many of them, Wölfflin’s book inaugurated an art history based enti ..."
"This book features a crystalline new translation of one of art history's most influential works-published on its one-hundredth anniversary. Principles of Art History by Heinrich Wolfflin (1864-1945), a revolutionary attempt to construct a science of art through the study of the development of style, has been a foundational work of formalist art history since it was first published in 1915. At once systematic and subjective, and remarkab ..."
"Initially published by Penn State Press in 1965, Catherine Enggass' translation of Filippo Baldinucci's "Life of Bernini" was the first English-language edition of this historic biography. Out of print for many years, "The Life of Bernini" is now available in a new paperback edition with an introduction by Maarten Delbeke, Evonne Levy, and Steven F.

"Bringing together established and emerging specialists in seventeenth-century Italian sculpture, Material Bernini is the first sustained examination of the conspicuous materiality of Bernini’s work in sculpture, architecture, and paint. The various essays demonstrate that material Bernini has always been tied (whether theologically, geologically, politically, or in terms of art theory) to his immaterial twin. Here immaterial Bernini and ..."

"... the marquis of Castell dos Rius, as viceroy of Peru in 1707. The marquis had
been Spanish ambassador to the French court when Charles II died, and he
played an important role in the process of succession. Knowledgeable in the arts
and their political utility—he himself was a poet and playwright—the marquis
would have been an attentive observer of musical and theatrical practice at the
court of Louis XIV. He brought the Italian ..."

"Over the course of some two centuries following the conquests and consolidations of Spanish rule in the Americas during the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries-the period designated as the Baroque-new cultural forms sprang from the cross-fertilization of Spanish, Amerindian, and African traditions. This dynamism of motion, relocation, and mutation changed things not only in Spanish America, but also in Spain, creating a transat ..."
"Unique among early modern artists, the Baroque painter, sculptor, and architect Gianlorenzo Bernini was the subject of two monographic biographies published shortly after his death in 1680: one by the Florentine connoisseur and writer Filippo Baldinucci (1682), and the second by Bernini’s son, Domenico (1713). This interdisciplinary collection of essays by historians of art and literature marks the first sustained examination of the two ..."

"Der Erste Weltkrieg war der erste militarische Konflikt, in dem die Geisteswissenschaften Aufgaben der Propaganda ubernahmen. Im Herbst 1914, nach den Zerstorungen in Reims und Leuven, starteten die Mittelmachte mit dem "Kunstschutz" eine Kampagne, die den Vorwurf "deutscher Barbarei" in der Kriegsfuhrung widerlegen sollte. Die Aktivitaten des "Kunstschutzes" umfassten alle Kriegsschauplatze, die bisherige Forschung blieb jedoch auf Bel ..."
"Wie stellte sich die noch junge Kunstwissenschaft den Provokationen der Kunst im frühen 20. Jahrhundert? Bestimmten diese auch die Perspektive auf die alte Kunst? Der Sammelband verfolgt diese Fragen nach dem Ver- hältnis von Kunst und Kunstwissenschaft in der Moderne. Im Zentrum steht die Diskussion um das 'Problem der Form', das den Formalismus der Kunsthistoriker mit der zeitgenössischen Kunst und ihrer Abkehr vom Naturalismus verbin ..."

Nachdem Kris der Kontakt mit Sigmund Freud und der Psychoanalyse seit Anfang der 20er Jahre mehr und mehr der Kunstgeschichte entfremdete und sich auf die psychologischen Bedingungen d ..."
