Generalized Fibonacci Series Considered modulo nFransson, Jonas January 2013 (has links)
In this thesis we are investigating identities regarding Fibonacci sequences. In particular we are examiningthe so called Pisano period, which is the period for the Fibonacci sequence considered modulo n to repeatitself. The theory shows that it suces to compute Pisano periods for primes. We are also looking atthe same problems for the generalized Pisano period, which can be described as the Pisano period forthe generalized Fibonacci sequence.

Zur Bedeutung der Internationalen Gotik für John Fowles' Novelle “The Ebony Tower”: Pisanello, Uccello und die Darstellung der NaturHorlacher, Stefan 16 March 2020 (has links)
Wie kein anderer Text des englischen Romanciers und Essayisten John Fowles ist 'The Ebony Tower' von Gemälden geprägt. Die Novelle verweist auf ihren 104 Seiten auf über vierzig Maler sowie auf die verschiedensten Maltechniken und Kunstrichtungen. Von zentraler Bedeutung ist hierbei die Stilrichtung der Internationalen Gotik, die durch Gemälde von Antonio Pisano (1395-1455), genannt Pisanello, sowie von Paolo di Dono (1397-1475), genannt Uccello, vertreten ist. Henry Breasley, weltberühmter Maler, magus in bezug auf den Leser sowie den Novizen und 'malenden Theoretiker' David Williams und in gewisser Weise auch Sprachrohr von Fowles, bezieht sich diskursiv sowie piktural, beispielsweise in seiner sehr erfolgreichen 'last-period series', gleich mehrfach implizit und explizit auf die beiden Italiener. Diesen kommt somit eine Schlüsselstellung nicht nur für die Interpretation von Breasleys Bildern, sondern auch für die von Fowles in 'The Ebony Tower' propagierte Kunst- und Lebensauffassung zu.

Imago Clipeata, the Liturgy, and Giovanni Pisano's Man of Sorrows Lectern: A Classical Reappropriation in the Gothic EraAbleman, Joslyn Elise 17 April 2021 (has links)
The monumental sculpture, especially the pulpits, of the father and son duo, Nicola and Giovanni Pisano, have often been compared to ancient Roman and early Christian sarcophagi. Giovanni produced a pulpit with two accompanying lecterns for the Pisa Cathedral, which is just a few steps away from the Camposanto, a “holy field”, or cemetery, built around sacred soil from Golgotha which serves to house a huge collection of sarcophagi. Iconography, composition, relief style, and even the materiality of Giovanni’s Pisa pulpit is in part governed by, and connected to, these sarcophagi. This influence is especially highlighted by the Epistles lectern, which depicts a half-length Christ as the Man of Sorrows encircled about and raised aloft by two angels. This unusual depiction of the Man of Sorrows seems to be appropriating a long tradition of the imago clipeata, or visual apotheosis. Giovanni borrows this classical imagery and updates it to reflect contemporary Christianity. The presence of the classical clipeata on the lectern underlines the two natures of Christ, which is a main characteristic of the iconography of the Man of Sorrows. The lectern’s clipeata and the reference to sarcophagi establishes a connection to ritual, but in this case Christian ritual, namely the sermon and the Eucharist. The imagery embodies an affective focus on the love and humanity of Christ as the crux of salvation, a characteristic of thirteenth- and fourteenth-century preaching. The drapery and textile, which act as the frame of the clipeata on the lectern, allude to the tramezzo, or choir screen, and liturgical cloths found at the high altar—both are liturgical accessories that aid the viewer during the consecration of the Eucharist. Giovanni Pisano adopts this antique imagery and recontextualizes it in an early-fourteenth century Christian setting as it becomes a creative commentary on the liturgy, devotion, and significance of place at the cathedral of Pisa.
