What do they all mean - the lascivious ape, autophagic dragons, pot-bellied heads, harp-playing asses, arse-kissing priests and somersaulting jongleurs to be found protuding from the edges of medieval buildings and in the margins of illuminated manuscripts? Michael Camille explores that riotous realm of marginal art, so often explained away as mere decoration or zany doodles, where resistance to social constraints flourished. Medieval image-makers focused attention on the underside of society, the excluded and the ejected. Peasants, servants, prostitutes and beggars all found their place, along with knights and clerics, engaged in impudent antics in the margins of prayer-books or, as gargoyles, on the outsides of churches. Camille brings us to an understanding of how marginality functioned in medieval culture and shows us just how scandalous, subversive and amazing the art of the time could be.

卡米尔的思路非常好猜:介于神圣与世俗之间的中世纪“边缘”艺术,是对巴赫金式二元叙事的解构。边缘对于中心的戏谑、嘲弄、subversion,在看似密不透风的ideology中撕开了一道可供“游戏”的间隙。诚然,这种“游戏”的revo潜能无疑是极其有限的,因为它不自知地默许了中心不可动摇的权威。但在边缘处探头骚扰的“游击战”的普遍存在,至少证明了中世纪绝非如现代人所想象的那样savage。甚至可以说,... 卡米尔的思路非常好猜:介于神圣与世俗之间的中世纪“边缘”艺术,是对巴赫金式二元叙事的解构。边缘对于中心的戏谑、嘲弄、subversion,在看似密不透风的ideology中撕开了一道可供“游戏”的间隙。诚然,这种“游戏”的revo潜能无疑是极其有限的,因为它不自知地默许了中心不可动摇的权威。但在边缘处探头骚扰的“游击战”的普遍存在,至少证明了中世纪绝非如现代人所想象的那样savage。甚至可以说,在如下意义上,现代对表征的“监管”反而比中世纪还要savage:“正因为真理不再像它们曾经看起来那么稳定,如今的参议员和保守派的监管者已将身体变成了中世纪的religion裁判所未曾设想的ideology战场。”——不幸的是,这一观察极有可能是对的。(笑) (展开)

在常人视线不可到达的教堂角落里的搞怪雕刻,好好玩。作者想要表达的是中世纪工匠的相对自由,强调教堂是作为多重场所的空间,由此展开对中世纪“世俗VS神圣”的更深入理解。但也会困惑,既然看不见,这些自由显示出来的对“权威”的嘲讽力量究竟多大?毕竟从观看方式,或者视觉经验来说,它和手抄本中边缘艺术的性质不同。 (一年前跟着老师去云冈,大家惊讶于登上梯子时看到的飞天,竟然如此憨憨可爱。后来老师讨论这个现象时... 在常人视线不可到达的教堂角落里的搞怪雕刻,好好玩。作者想要表达的是中世纪工匠的相对自由,强调教堂是作为多重场所的空间,由此展开对中世纪“世俗VS神圣”的更深入理解。但也会困惑,既然看不见,这些自由显示出来的对“权威”的嘲讽力量究竟多大?毕竟从观看方式,或者视觉经验来说,它和手抄本中边缘艺术的性质不同。 (一年前跟着老师去云冈,大家惊讶于登上梯子时看到的飞天,竟然如此憨憨可爱。后来老师讨论这个现象时引用了一个中世纪教堂的研究,现在想想应该就是本书了) (展开)
