Appels à communication : Session at RSA (San Francisco, 19-21 Feb 26): Mythology in court culture of the early modern period – new approaches
The syncretism between mythological themes and Christian culture was a defining feature of the Renaissance and played a significant role in shaping its foundations. This fusion involved the reception of pagan motifs within a Christian cultural framework, most notably, the incorporation of mythological themes into the art and symbolism of royal and aristocratic courts.
This session will focus on the causes and manifestations of classical tradition’s integration into early modern European court culture. As mythological themes were . . . → En lire plus

Faveur divine mystérieusement accordée aux mortels – tel le don du printemps, toujours immérité et toujours renouvelé –, la grâce est douceur, clarté, fluidité, légèreté. Associée à la jeunesse, elle vient animer la beauté, elle est la vie même. Chaque grande époque lui a apporté de nouveaux caractères : fécondité et lumière pour les anciens Grecs, nécessité du lien social et de l’amitié chez les Romains, charité et visions paradisiaques au . . . → En lire plus

15th Annual REFORC Conference on Early Modern Christianity: « Early Modern Christian Materiality », Wrocław, May 19-21, 2026.
At the time of the Reformation, new ways of perceiving bodiliness and materiality began to reshape Western thought, particularly in relation to the understanding of the Incarnation and the Eucharist. In a sharp critique of medieval Aristotelianism, especially the doctrine of transubstantiation grounded in Aristotelian hylomorphic theory, the Reformers developed new understandings of Christ’s presence, the Holy Spirit, human being, and the material world. While these reinterpretations varied among the different reformers, they commonly marked a departure from medieval theological frameworks and opened the door to (re)configurations in how materiality was understood, experienced, and practiced. The reconfigured understanding of the sacraments had a substantial influence on liturgy and, consequently, also . . . → En lire plus

A History of Textile Cleanliness: Washing and Perfuming Fabrics from the Medieval to the Modern Period.
In 2024, the Sleeping Beauties exhibition at the MET (New York) engaged visitors in the museum experience by recreating the displayed dresses’ scents – identified through chromatographic analysis – to illuminate their history and relationship to bodily senses. The analyses and interpretations published in the catalogue reveal not only the presence of perfumes but also traces of cosmetics, sebum, polluted air, and wine, among other aromas. While the poetic resonance of these sensory traces may evoke the ephemeral existence of these garments, their scents have not always been perceived as desirable. On the contrary, the history of textiles and clothing is deeply intertwined with practices of washing, stain removal, . . . → En lire plus

Building Sites in Early Modern Europe (c.1400-1700).
The CSCA (Ax:son Johnson Centre for the Study of Classical Architecture) is inviting papers for its forthcoming conference on Building Sites in Early Modern Europe (c. 1400-1700), to be held 4-6 June 2026 at Downing College, Cambridge.
This international academic conference explores the building site in early modern Europe and its networks (c. 1400–1700) as a place for production, exchange, and transmission in the history of art and architecture. Far from being mere spaces of construction, building sites functioned as dynamic laboratories where ideas, knowledge, cultures, technologies, skills, and social structures intersected. Building sites, in this way, acted as contact zones for the transfer of both practical and theoretical knowledge. Europe’s ‘builder’ patrons, including the Medici, Pope Julius II, François . . . → En lire plus

Urban Images and Their Unpredictable Narratives, 1450–1950: Stakeholders, Authorities, and ‘the Others’.
Cities have long been complex sites of intersection, conflict, and negotiation. Their visual representations—whether in maps, vedute, paintings, engravings, or other media—have carefully articulated the diverse contexts, interests, and power structures that operated in the city. Far from being neutral, these representations were directly shaped by their creators’ perspectives and the environments they were part of. Within this tension, further narratives were at play.
Starting from the image, this session aims to understand how representing cities has functioned both as political instrument capable of normalizing power structures and as means of capturing the intrinsic unruly nature of urban space for a broader audience. How was power articulated in images in response to the unpredictability of (daily) urban life? . . . → En lire plus

While long overlooked in art historical studies, over the past two decades body hair has emerged as a significant field of research, offering new perspectives on Early Modern visual culture. The presence or absence of body hair serves as an indicator of aesthetic (or artistic) preferences and prevailing social norms specific to certain periods and locations, revealing complex intersections between art and real life.
