Les images médiévales: La figure et le corps
Hidden Hands: The Lives of Manuscripts and Their Makers
The steady stream of books on medieval manuscripts addressed to a popular audience over the past two decades coincides with the advent of tablets such as Amazon's Kindle. As the flatlands of the digital realm encompass more of life, nostalgia for a tactile realm of reading, whether in the making or the perception of artifacts, asserts itself, as does the desire to immerse oneself in the real space of the conventional book, as opposed to the virtu…

The Liber ordinarius of Nivelles (Houghton Library, MS Lat 422): Liturgy as Interdisciplinary Intersection
Throughout the Middle Ages, the religious women of Nivelles Abbey governed one of the most venerable and powerful ecclesiastical institutions in the Holy Roman Empire, which played a critical role, not only as the center of the cult of St Gertrude, but also as a lynchpin in the power politics of the empire. The recent discovery of the oldest surviving manuscript from the abbey, its Liber ordinarius, thus represents a significant addition to knowl…
A Seminar On Diagrams as Conversation and Consolation
In this contribution to the second installment of the Common Knowledge symposium “In the Humanities Classroom,” a Harvard University graduate seminar on diagrams in the Middle Ages is described in detail. The course brought together a group of students as diverse as the various fields in which diagrams and diagrammatic modes of thought currently play a critical role: not only art history, visual studies, and design, but also computer science, “Bi…

Introduction: Warburg's Library and Its Legacy
In this introduction to a Common Knowledge special issue on the Warburg Institute, the authors argue that the Institute remains today - as it has been, in different forms, for almost a century - one of Europe's central institutions for the study of cultural history. At once a rich and uniquely organized library, a center for doctoral and postdoctoral research, and a teaching faculty, the Institute was first envisioned by Aby Warburg, a pioneering…

Peter Damian's Sermon 63 on John the Evangelist in Middle Dutch
Peter Damian's sermon 63 on St. John the Evangelist, which interrelates the themes of his virginity and his close relationship with Christ, had an significant impact on the mystical theology of the Late Middle Ages. One of the very few of Damian's sermons that was translated into the vernacular, inter alia, into Middle High German and Old French. A complete translation of the same sermon into Middle Dutch survives in a single fifteenth-century ma…

The Use of Images in the Pastoral Care of Nuns: The Case of Heinrich Suso and the Dominicans
The article examines the role of imagery in the cura monialium, or the pastoral care of nuns, in the circle of the Dominican preacher and mystic, Heinrich Suso. Among the images described in Suso's writings are the paintings in his oratory at the Dominican church at Constance. Although their existence has never been posited for lack of a physical or functional context that would lend credibility to the written sources that describe them, both the…
