Skrócony opis: |
The course explores the significance of translations of artistic forms and motifs across the Early modern world. Until recently most scholars placed their efforts on identifying influences stimulating creation of visually similar art in different locations. Presently the term influence itself was subject to revision, followed by the rejection of its implied straightforward direction of any artistic connection. Instead, arguably, more useful term ‘translation’ had been introduced to define transregional artistic solutions and interactions. |

The course explores the significance of translations of artistic forms and motifs across the Early modern world. Until recently most scholars placed their efforts on identifying influences stimulating creation of visually similar art in different locations. Presently the term influence itself was subject to revision, followed by the rejection of its implied straightforward direction of any artistic connection. Instead, arguably, more useful term ‘translation’ had been introduced to define transregional artistic solutions and interactions.

Transmission and Propagation 6. Lost in Translation? Translations of religious artefacts 7. Between the Netherlands and Italy. Artistic translation in painting. 8. Luso-African Ivories.

Artistic translations in various media 12. Role of Prints in Disseminating Artistic Models 13. Material Translations 14. Artistic Gifts and Translations 15. Artistic Translations and the Agency of Things |
