O objetivo é demonstrar essas confluências de ideias na ciência geográfica, num período em que a arte e a ciência mantiveram íntimas relações, ocorrendo a formulação da Geografia como nascente ciência moderna, ou seja, estudar a transformação da pintura de paisagem como categoria de análise, ao mesmo tempo em que funda a geografia como ciência. Os assuntos aqui abordados tiveram como base o pensamento de que a preeminência da ciência na cultura ocidental é manifestada e quem quer que estude a sociedade moderna deve reconhecer a importância de compreender como a ciência conduz sua tarefa de inventar, testar e, finalmente, aceitar ou rejeitar teorias. Assim, para compreender a forma com que se procede a ciência, é necessária uma reflexão sustentada pelo levantamento histórico, não apenas de forma descritiva, mas associando a ela o estudo de tais processos de forma analítica, objetivando o esclarecimento do desenvolvimento do pensamento geográfico. Para isso, realizou-se uma investigação teórica demonstrando a confluência das ideias envolvidas na construção da categoria e da representação de paisagem, além da demonstração de como ocorreu a concepção das ideias que surgiram da junção da arte com a Geografia, resultando uma nova concepção da superfície terrestre. Trata-se de um estudo sistemático dos processos de mudança e invenção da teoria da ciência, com propósito intelectual de determinar a natureza e o escopo do conhecimento humano. No que concerne à pesquisa da relação geografia e arte, recorreremos à gênese da ideia de paisagem, que surge nas artes pictóricas e sua inserção na nascente ciência geográfica do século XVIII e XIX. A pintura de paisagem, a partir do século XVII, passou a ganhar o status científico e filosófico de representar o mundo, tendo assim uma profusão de acontecimentos, como o aperfeiçoamento das técnicas em representar tanto na pintura como na cartografia e o desenvolvimento das técnicas e dos instrumentos que possibilitou a apreensão da natureza pelo nascente modo capitalista de produção, bem como as viagens ultramares. No campo político, tem-se a independência do Brasil e sua busca para se tornar uma nação, quando a natureza assume um papel de destaque e passa a ser a amalgama que uniria os diferentes povos que aqui se encontravam. Sendo assim, as representações utilizadas pela ciência terão a arte como campo profícuo de seu desenvolvimento, além da colaboração no debate sobre a natureza e as concepções sobre ela. Para corroborar com o presente trabalho, foram analisadas as obras do artista alemão João M. Rugendas (1802 ¿ 1858), considerado por Humboldt como o pintor das Américas, além de ser o grande representante da iconologia "brasileira". Esteve em dois momentos no Brasil, que coincidiram com o processo de independência e tentativa, por parte da elite, de configurar, interna e externamente, uma nação, afinal o Brasil se fez império antes mesmo de ser uma nação. As obras de Rugendas apresentam um motivo de exaltação da exuberante natureza tropical, vista como um motivo de orgulho e prosperidade. Em vista disto, a paisagem tropical representada permite criar símbolos e projetar nela os ideais que buscavam também manter a integridade territorial do império herdado do período colonial / Abstract: This paper discusses the participation and the relationship between Geography and Art, as well as the collaboration between both, providing a progress on thoughts and applications of geographical investigations. The purpose is to demonstrate these confluences of ideas in Geographical Science, during a period in which Art and Science maintained close relationships, occurring the formulation of Geography as nascent modern Science, ie, this text studies the transformation of landscape painting as a category of analysis that has founded Geography as Science. The issues discussed are based on the preeminence of Western Science as culture manifested, and anyone who studies modern society should recognize the importance of understanding how science leads his task to invent, test and finally accept or reject theories. To understand how the reflection about science proceeds, it is necessary a reflection sustained for the historical survey, not only descriptively but associating it to the study of such processes analytically, aiming to clarify the development of geographical thought. For this, we carried out a theoretical investigation demonstrating the confluence of the ideas involved in the construction of the category and the representation of landscape, and a demonstration of how it came to designing the ideas that emerged from the junction of Art and Geography, resulting in a new conception of the earth's surface. A systematic study of the processes of changing and invention of science theory with intellectual purpose of determining the nature and scope of human knowledge. Concerning the research of the relationship Geography-Art, we used the genesis of the idea of ?landscape, which appears in the pictorial arts, and its place in the nascent Geographical Science of the 18th and 19th centuries. Landscape painting, from the seventeenth century went on to win the scientific and philosophical status of representing the world, so we have a plethora of events, such as improving techniques to represent painting and mapping and the development of techniques and instruments allowed the understanding of nature by the way, spring, capitalist production and the navigation age's traveling. Politically, we had the independence of Brazil and his quest to become a nation where nature plays an important role becoming the amalgam that would unite the different people whose belonged here. Thus, the representations used by Science find in the art a useful field of development cooperation beyond the debate about the nature and notions about it. This text analyzes the works of the German artist John M. Rugendas (1802 - 1858), considered by Humboldt as the painter of the Americas, in addition of being the great representative of the "Brazilian" iconology. He had been to two moments in Brazil, firstly during the period of independence process and the attempt by the elite setting, internal and external, of a nation, when Brazil becomes the empire even before being a nation. The works of Rugendas represent a cause for uplift of lush tropical nature, when it is seen as a source of pride and prosperity. In this point of view, the tropical landscape allows the symbols create and design the ideals that were aimed to maintain the territorial integrity of the empire inherited from the colonial period / Mestrado / Análise Ambiental e Dinâmica Territorial / Mestre em Geografia

Ceramics, Textiles and the Tiwanaku Integration of Chile's "Norte Grande"In this paper we explore Tiwanaku's iconography of power and its role in integrating south-central Andean frontier areas such as the Azapa Valley and oasis of San Pedro de Atacama, in northern Chile. It is presumed that Tiwanaku's expansive processes, like the powers that maintained its central hierarchy and the strategies that integrated peripheral and ultra-peripheral areas with the center, were ideological and political. This ideological and political nature was expressed materially in the stone sculptures of Tiwanaku, and widely distributed in portable art objects that generated and integrated Tiwanaku's interaction sphere. This idea motivates a reexamination of collections from the nuclear and peripheral areas, including the extreme south of Peru, south-central Bolivia, and northern Chile. Focusing on Chile's Azapa Valley, and San Pedro de Atacama, the authors seek to determine from iconography and artifacts the degree of integration between center and periphery, in hegemonic and territorial terms. / En este trabajo se explora la iconografía del poder en Tiwanaku y su rol en la integración de zonas de frontera del área centro-sur andina, como lo son el valle de Azapa y San Pedro de Atacama, en el norte de Chile. Se asume que en el proceso expansivo de Tiwanaku, las sanciones que apoyaron la jerarquía central y las estrategias empleadas para integrar las zonas periféricas y ultraperiféricas al centro fueron de naturaleza ideológica y política, lo que se manifestaría materialmente en la iconografía que reproduce las imágenes de la litoescultura del lago, y que se distribuyó en objetos portátiles que integraron o generaron su esfera de interacción. Esta idea motivó la revisión de colecciones arqueológicas de las zonas nucleares y marginales de la esfera de influencia tiwanaku, comprendidas entre el extremo sur del Perú, centro-sur de Bolivia y norte de Chile. Aquí, en particular, los autores se referirán a los textiles y a la alfarería del valle de Azapa y de San Pedro de Atacama para, a través de las relaciones iconográficas y artefactuales, intentar determinar el grado de integración centro-periferia, ya sea en términos hegemónicos o territoriales.

Brahmā est introduit dans l’iconographie tamoule dès la fin du 6ème s. ou le tout début du 7ème s. par les Pallava, probablement originaires du sud de l’actuel Andhra-Pradesh : ils initient simultanément la sculpture sur pierre et le développement de la culture brahmanique dans l’extrême sud de l’Inde. La divinité apparait dans les fondations du Deccan à la même période : elle participe alors essentiellement de la triade qu’elle forme avec Viṣṇu et Śiva. La faveur que connait Brahmā par la suite, puisqu’il préside à la façade nord sur plusieurs temples shivaïtes de la fin de la période Pallava puis de la période Cola, est en revanche inédite dans d’autres traditions régionales : elle trouve sans aucun doute son origine dans la relation complexe de complémentarité et de rivalité qu’il noue avec Śiva - mais aussi Viṣṇu, même si elle est dans ce cas moins conflictuelle - dans l’idéologie royale développée par les rois Pallava, et plus particulièrement telle qu’elle est mise en scène dans l’iconographie narrative du temple Kailāsanātha à Kāñcipuram au début du 8ème s. Les interactions multiples entre les deux divinités s’articulent notamment autour de la confrontation ambiguë du brahmanisme orthodoxe avec une nouvelle forme d’expression du savoir śaiva d’une part, et, d’autre part, autour de la figure du roi, que peut représenter Śiva, et du brahmane, du purohita, incarné par Brahmā. Le contexte et la signification de ces représentations jusqu’au tournant du 10ème s. en regard de l’art contemporain du Deccan mettront en lumière les spécificités du sud tamoul mais aussi ce qui participe de concepts plus largement diffusés qu’il ne semblerait au premier abord. / Brahmā was introduced into Tamil iconography at the end of the 6th century or the very beginning of the 7th century by the Pallava, probably from the south of present-day Andhra-Pradesh: they simultaneously initiated stone carving and the development of Brahmanic culture in the far south of India. The divinity appears in the shrines of the Deccan at the same period: he then essentially participates in the triad he forms with Viṣṇu and Śiva. The favor that Brahmā knows thereafter, since he presides over the north facade on several Śaiva temples of the end of the Pallava period then of the Cola period, is by contrast unprecedented in other regional traditions: it undoubtedly finds its origin in the complex relationship of complementarity and rivalry that it establishes with Śiva - but also Viṣṇu, even if it is in this case less conflictual - in the royal ideology developed by the Pallava kings, and more particularly such as it is staged in the narrative iconography of the Kailāsanātha temple in Kāñcipuram at the beginning of the 8th century. The multiple interactions between the two divinities are articulated notably around the ambiguous confrontation of orthodox Brahmanism with a new form of expression of Śaiva knowledge on the one hand, and, on the other hand, around the figure of the king, which Śiva can represent, and of the Brahmin, the purohita, embodied by Brahmā. The context and meaning of these representations up to the turn of the 10th century in relation to the contemporary art of the Deccan will highlight the specificities of southern Tamil imagery but also its connexion to concepts more widely disseminated than it would seem at first sight.

The purpose of this essay is to study the evolution and differences of motifs on bronze age objects associated with men and women, the differences in plastic ornamentation and the differences in grave goods in five danish oakcoffin burials from II-III, and fourtythree swedish cremation graves from period IV-VI. The methods used for the motifs and plastic ornamentation are an iconographical one and for the grave goods I have chosen to make a chart. The spiral motifs on beltplates and the ships on the bronze razors, for example, have played a significant part in bronze age life. The same could be said of the plastic ornamentation on the horse headed razors from period II-III. The grave goods from the danish oakcoffin burials could possibly be seen as something connected with sunpriestesses. The few gravegoods coming from the swedish cremation graves could be viewed as a consequence of larger villagers appearing during the late bronze age.

Les recherches portant sur les fora provinciaux effectuées au cours des dernières décennies ont permis de redéfinir un certain nombre de leurs caractéristiques. L’étude du décor de ces centres civiques dans sa globalité constitue alors une approche susceptible d’apporter une meilleure compréhension de ces espaces. Cette première approche du sujet a pour objectif d’aborder la question du dialogue entre les images présentes sur le forum et leurs contextes. Le décor figuratif permet de définir les principales thématiques, qui sont souvent complétées par des décors non figuratifs, et qui participent à la diffusion de l’idéologie impériale. Ce décor doit ensuite être contextualisé, afin d’en comprendre la conception, et d’aborder la question de sa réception par le spectateur. / Over the last few decades, studies on provincial fora defined some of their characteristics. A global approach of their decor can bring about a better understanding of these spaces. The link between the images and their contexts will be examined. The study of the images will be associated with the study of non iconographical elements of the decor in order to define the main themes represented on the fora. The definition of several contexts will help to understand how the decor was conceived and seen at the time.

Ce travail est une étude mythologique portant principalement sur deux figures héroïques grecques, Pélops et Hippodamie, couple fondateur de la lignée des Pélopides. Inscrivant ma démarche dans la lignée des travaux de Marcel Detienne, Claude Calame et Charles Delattre sur la notion de mythe, non pas catégorie indigène mais objet construit a posteriori par les chercheurs actuels, je définis, sur la base des critères minimaux que sont les noms propres des héros et leurs types figurés, un corpus fait de textes grecs et dans une moindre mesure romains et d'œuvres figurées grecques, étrusques et romaines, que j'étudie ensuite systématiquement pour y mettre en évidence les possibles critères d'unité ou de discontinuité dans les représentations de ces figures héroïques, en me montrant attentif à la grande variété des contextes (cultuels, génériques, historiques) dans lesquels elles sont évoqués. J'étudie ainsi tant les cultes héroïques rendus à Pélops et Hippodamie à Olympie que les représentations figurées de ces héros et les différentes formes de discours qui les mentionnent, d'Homère à Nonnos de Panopolis. Je tente enfin de fournir les principaux éléments d'une étude globale de cet ensemble dans une perspective informée par l'anthropologie historique. Si l'ensemble général des évocations de Pélops n'a qu'une cohérence limitée, plusieurs sous-ensembles s'avèrent plus pertinents, le principal étant celui formé par les représentations de la course de chars qui aboutit à l'union des deux époux aux dépens d'Oinomaos, père récalcitrant d'Hippodamie. / This is a mythological study concerning mainly two heroic figures of ancient Greece: Pelops and Hippodameia, ancestors of the heroic genos of the Pelopids. In the continuity of the works of Marcel Detienne, Claude Calame or Charles Delattre about the notion of myth, no more considered as an « indigenous category » but as a construct built a posteriori by contemporary scholars, I define, on the basis of the minimal criterias that are the proper nouns of the heroes and their iconographical types, a corpus composed of Greek (and also in some measure Latin) texts and of Greek, Etruscan and Roman figurative works, which I then study systematically in order to find out more precise criterias of unity or discontinuity in the representations of these heroic figures, paying special attention to the great variety of contexts (cults, genres, historical eras) in which they are evoked. I thus study the heroic cults devoted to Pelops and Hippodameia in Olympia, the visual representations of these heroes, and the different forms of speech which mention them, from Homer to Nonnos of Panopolis. I lastly try to provide the main elements for a global study of this corpus in a perspective informed by historical anthropology. If the widest corpus, composed of the mentions of Pelops, has only a limited coherence, several subsets appear more pertinent, mainly that which is formed by the representations of the chariot race that allows the union of two spouses, despite the reluctance of Hippodameia's father, Oinomaos

The hypothesis of this study is as follows: If Psalm 47 is analysed intra-, inter and extratextually, we will be able to gain greater insight into the cultural and historical context in which it originated, the cultic use of the Psalm in later periods, as well as its general meaning. All this is done to determine whether there are any indications of universalism in Psalm 47 and that has indeed been found to be the case on various grounds. Each chapter deals with one of these aspects. Chapter 1 forms the introduction that stipulates the research question and how the study will go about resolving it. Chapter 2 focuses on an intratextual analysis of Psalm 47 in an attempt to determine the interrelatedness of all textual features (morphology, syntax, poetic stratagems, structure, genre) on the literary level. This analysis will aid the interpreter in establishing a structure of the text, suggesting one that could meet with relative consensus amongst some exegetes. It, in turn, forms the framework for the socio-historical interpretation of the text. Other interpretation problems such as its Gattung, Sitz im Leben and dating are also discussed in this section. Chapter 3 investigates Psalm 47 from an intertextual perspective. Attention is paid to similarities with other texts in the immediate and more remote context of the psalm. An intertextual analysis is conducted between Psalm 47 and Psalms 46 and 48, and a brief overview of intertextual relations between Psalm 47 and the rest of the Korahite Psalms are given. Here the study links up with a recent trend in Psalms research, namely to concentrate less upon individual poems and their so-called Sitz im Leben and more upon the composition and redaction of the Psalter as a book especially by focussing on concatenation of a psalm and the psalms which follow on it and precede it. Attention is also given to a spatial reading of these texts to understand how they fit into the Ancient Near Eastern spatial orientation, but also transcend it. Chapter 4 consists of an extratextual analysis of Psalm 47. It had three aims: First, to identify and explain terminology referring to patronage and how patron-client/vassal relationships functioned in the Ancient Near East. This was done through a socio-scientific investigation of the poem in its social context, in order to understand the behaviour of the different role-players in the psalm. Second, to identify and explain war terminology occurring in Psalm 47. Third, to “illustrate” the psalm by investigating Ancient Near Eastern iconography and art. The main goal of this chapter was to gain a clearer understanding of the relationship between Israel and her neighbours. Are the nations considered to be incorporated into Israel or do they function merely as a vassal to their patron in Psalm 47:10? Chapter 5 is a summary of the insights gained in the previous chapters. It critically discusses the results of the study, the conclusions reached, the contribution of this work to the field of study, areas opened for further research, and possible shortcomings in the researcher’s own approach.

This Bachelor's thesis in Art History at Uppsala University is an iconographical and iconological study of six artworks made by Princess Eugénie of Sweden and Norway (1830-1889). These works of art consists of two ink-drawings, two aquarelles and two sculptures. One of the sculptures is in porcelaine and the other in terra-cotta.  The iconographical and iconological analysis is made according to Erwin Panofsky's three level-method.

Vítězslav Prchal War, Arms, and Armour in the Representative Strategies of Bohemian and Moravian Aristocracy, 1550-1750 dissertation thesis, 2012 In Czech historical writing, history of aristocracy has been on a rise ever since the turbulent days of 1990s. It has always been characterized by application of various methods borrowed form different other fields, such as cultural or social history as well as historical anthropology, and its primary goal was to understand the mentality of the specific social class that is early modern aristocracy. Throughout time, several approaches emerged form the initial probing: first, study of political culture and power; second, study of aristocratic courts and residences; and, third, study of aristocratic family and its life-cycle. All this research was originally focused on 16th century aristocracy; however, it also successfully tackles topics of late 17th and 18th century in recent years as well. Study of aristocratic residences especially has quite a long tradition in Czech historiography, following the lines of socially interpreted art history. On the other hand, as military history is a rather neglected part of writing on the early modern era, this problem transpires into the connection of warfare and aristocracy in 16th to 18th century. For example, not...

The Diploma thesis "Devotion and iconography of st. Mary Magdalen" - Two biblical characters have been associated with Mary Magdalene since the time of Gregory the Great; the unnamed sinner and Mary of Bethany. According to the Bible Mary Magdalene was one of the women who accompanied Jesus during His ministry. She was the woman from whom Jesus had cast out seven demons. She washed Jesus' feet with her tears and ointment. When Jesus was crucified she was there standing under the cross. She was present at His funeral. On Easter Sunday she went to the grave of the Lord to anoint His body. She discovered the empty tomb and saw the resurrected Jesus, who appeared to her as a gardener and sent her to announce His Resurrection to His disciples. She is considered "the apostle of the Apostles". According to an old French legend she was put in a boat without sails or oars and sailed to Marseilles, where she preached the gospel. Then she retreated to a cavern. There she lived as a recluse for thirty years. Every day she was lifted by angels up to heaven. She was buried in Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baume. Her main cult centers were the places where her relics had been preserved; Vezelay in Burgundy in the Romanesque period , and Saint-Maximin-la-Sainte-Baumesince since the 13th to 18th century. She is usually...
