Historicizing Representations
This essay argues that history and form are practically inseparable in the twenty-five year career of Representations
The 2006 Josephine Waters Bennett Lecture
The place of the Renaissance in historical narratives of modernity was problematic long before recent bouts of dismissal, denial, or indifference. However, the idea is a hardy survivor and the old phoenix is at it again. Has the Renaissance gained a new, postmodern lease on life? Plurality, discontinuity, and contingency are hallmarks of that protean, much-contested label and of current Renaissance studies, not to mention the Renaissance boom in …
A Historian's Brief Guide to New Museum Studies
unfolding of historiographical narrative; in one form or another, contrast has inspired recovery or outright construction of alternative histories for marginalized or excluded groups. Over and against idea that objects are passive registers of symbolic meanings or exchange values, some revisionist thinking in anthropology stresses their material specificity as things with pasts.56 This revisionist enterprise has real-world consequences in Native …

The Early Modern Muddle
This article traces the career of "Early Modernity" as a covering term for a post-medieval, pre-modern historical period and a deliberate challenge to the historiographical conventions of "ages" (Renaissance, Reformation, etc.), centuries, or national histories. The author argues that the widespread but uncritical acceptance of this usage has obscured its limitations and equivocations and discusses possible alternatives

Authenticity and historic preservation
Authenticity was neither an exclusive criterion nor even a keyword in the rise of the historic preservation movement before the heated controversies over `Heritage' beginning in the late 1960s. Both advocates and critics have tended to ignore or oversimplify an actual history of non-dogmatic but not at all unprincipled reflection, analysis and professional practice. From the writings of Alois Riegl and Camillo Boito around 1900 through ongoing de…
Three Ages of ''Patina'' in Painting
THIS ARTICLE TRACES THE HISTORY of a byword for the look of age since the early seventeenth century in art writing, the museum, the restorer's studio, and the art market. The seemingly material fact of patina has a career in the history of taste in Old Master painting through its old regime in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, when it was much prized as an effect of time and as an artifice; in its modern age beginning with the formation o…

Arts of Power
Jacob Burckhardt claimed that the state in Renaissance Italy became work of In this book, the authors illiminate the corollary: that art in Italy became a work of state. They study centres of power under three distinctive governments - a civic republic of the 14th century, a princely court of the 15th, and an absolutist state of the 16th. The authors argue that, no less than armies, laws and taxes, painted halls of state were strategic instrument…

Reinventing Heroes in Renaissance Italy
Reinventing Heroes in Renaissance Italy Renaissance Italy saw one of the great bursts of heroic image-making in the history of public art. The patriotic icon, the portrait cycle of culture heroes, and the equestrian monument all emerged in their characteristic post-classical Western forms in this context. More exactly, they emerged with what can be understood as the reinvention of the male figure as a primary host, talisman, and exemplar of strat…

Much more has been written on of progress than on notions of decline. This may be one more indication that progress is distinctive conviction of modern minds it is supposed to be; certainly it reflects academic distribution of history by fief and field. Studies of of progress constitute a proper academic field, complete with its classic (Bury's Idea of Progress), revisions of classic, and syntheses of both (progress on progress?). Such work as th…
