Archaeology and the Pan-European Romanesque
Author: T. O'Keefe
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1472537661
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 146
Book Description
Romanesque is the style name given to the art and architecture of Europe in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. First used in the early nineteenth century to express the perceived indebtedness of the visual-artistic and architectural cultures of this period to their Classical antecedents, the term has survived two centuries of increasingly sophisticated readings of the relevant medieval buildings and objet d'art. The study of Romanesque as a stylistic phenomenon is now almost exclusively the preserve of art historians, particularly in the English-speaking world. Here 'the Romanesque' is subjected to a long overdue, theoretically-informed, archaeological inquiry. The ideological foundations and epistemological boundaries of Romanesque scholarship are critiqued, and the constructs of 'Romanesque' and 'Europe' are deconstructed, and alternative strategies for interpreting Romanesque's constituent material are mapped out. This book should, at the very least, illuminate the need for debate.

In addition to revealing the process of Europeanisation, within its shared intellectual and technical inheritance, the complete work provides an opportunity for demonstrating the differences that were inevitably present across the continent - from Iceland to Sicily and Portugal to Finland.

Historical Archaeologies of Transhumance Across Europe
Author: Eugene Costello
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780815380320
Category : Pastoral systems
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Transhumance, the movement of people and livestock between environmental zones, has formed an important aspect of many European farming systems for several thousand years, although they have declined markedly since the 19th century. This volume focusses on the archaeology of seasonal sites used by shepherds and cowherds, although the contributions are interdisciplinarity, bringing together documentary, cartographic, ethnographic and palaeoecological evidence. The book will appeal not only to archaeologists, but to historians, geographers, ethnographers, palaeoecologists and anyone interested in rural lifeways across Europe.
