Margriet’s book(s) – and more in general the increasing information about ownership of early printed books – also trigger questions regarding the role of the early printed book within a wider array of media, and the relationship between text and image in late medieval lay devotional culture in particular.

The story of Bayard and Aymon’s sons was popular in the Low Countries during the Middle Ages. In many towns and cities, a giant wooden Horse Bayard was part of processions and parades. In some cases, the tradition persists to this day. This is especially the case in Dendermonde, where a local version of the story exists. The nineteenth-century archivist of the city, Prudens Van Duyse, is probably responsible for this remarkable tradition. His assumptions about the Dendermond roots of Aymon of Dordoen and the resulting local narrative tradition are based on a very free interpretation of the toponyms in the Middle Dutch prose story and on an equally free reading of the writings of a number of seventeenth-century historians. While, after Van Duyse’s passing, there was some debate among historians concerning the credibility of his theories, storytellers embraced the regional variant that he invented. To this day, Van Duyse continues to influence Dendermond folklore.","PeriodicalId":39584,"journal":{"name":"Queeste","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87108970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Scholten","doi":"10.5117/que2019.2.002.scho","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5117/que2019.2.002.scho","url":null,"abstract":"\u0000 Deze bijdrage onderzoekt het gebruik van een groep laatgotische devotionalia uit de Noordelijke Nederlanden, in buxushout gesneden microsculpturen. Het merendeel van deze privédevotiekunst betreft zogenaamde gebedsnoten – bolletjes ter grootte van een pingpongbal – die in twee helften kunnen worden geopend. Elke zijde bevat een uiterst minuscule religieuze voorstelling, waaromheen verklarende of introducerende Latijnse inscripties zijn aangebracht, die de gelovige aanzetten tot meditatie. Sommige gebedsnoten nodigen de gebruiker expliciet uit tot deelname aan een speelse, meditatieve speurtocht in hun binnenzijde, andere impliciet door middel van ingebouwde spel- en puzzelachtige elementen.\u0000 Door hun minieme schaal en grote detailrijkdom bewerkstelligen deze onvoorstelbaar kleine taferelen dat de gebruiker zich gemakkelijk kan verliezen in de ontrafeling van deze visuele puzzel en, al mediterend, in een staat van mentale verzinking (‘immersion’) kan belanden waarbij het gevoel voor tijd verloren raakt. Psychologische experimenten hebben inderdaad het verband aangetoond tussen schaal en ervaring van tijd: de tijdsbeleving blijkt te worden gecomprimeerd ten opzichte van ‘real time’ met een ratio die gelijk is aan verhouding van de schaal tot de werkelijke ruimte. Als een persoon zich concentreert op een voorstelling in een ruimte met schaal 1:6, worden dertig minuten werkelijke tijd ervaren als slechts vijf minuten.\u0000 Het volledig opgaan in de esthetische illusie van het devotietafereel in de gebedsnoot vraagt van de gebruiker deelname aan een ‘game of make-believe’, zoals Kendall Walton dit proces beschreef. Het is een vorm van psychologische overgave in een rollenspel waarbij de gebedsnoot rekwisiet is. Tijdens dit spel van ‘make-believe’ wordt het religieuze tafereel even ‘werkelijkheid’, net zoals een pop dat kan zijn voor een spelend kind.\u0000 Het hier gesuggereerde verband tussen devotie en spel lijkt verrassend, maar in de Middeleeuwen waren beide nauw verbonden. Ludus creëerde een vrije ruimte met eigen regels – een tovercirkel, aldus Huizinga in zijn Homo ludens – om ongedwongen te mediteren, memoriseren, reflecteren. Huizinga’s spelconcept en Walton’s ‘game of make-believe’ liggen dichtbij elkaar: beide beschrijven een mentale en fysieke staat van verzinking die wordt veroorzaakt door zich over te geven aan het spel. Recentelijk werd bovendien overtuigend betoogd dat er ook een biologisch verband bestaat tussen spel, mentale verzinking en esthetische illusie. In het gebruik van de hier beschreven devotionalia komt dit drietal elementen effectief samen.","PeriodicalId":39584,"journal":{"name":"Queeste","volume":"41 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82675948","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Deze boekjes vragen de lezer om bepaalde lichamelijke houdingen aan te nemen tijdens hun devotionele oefeningen, houdingen die hen helpen bij het ontwikkelen van de gewenste of gepaste emotionele, spirituele en mentale attitudes. Opvallend is dat deze oefeningen, alhoewel geworteld in de praktijk van religieuzen, expliciet toegankelijk worden gemaakt voor leken. Van essentieel belang hierbij is het performatieve karakter van deze werken. Ze roepen de lezer op tot het (her)creëren van voorstellingen, die een beroep doen op de verbeelding, emoties stimuleren en het lichaam integraal betrekken. Op deze manier wordt een religieuze habitus ontwikkeld, een manier van zijn en handelen die verder ontwikkeld en toegepast wordt bij en door deelname aan andere religieuze activiteiten.","PeriodicalId":39584,"journal":{"name":"Queeste","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76166875","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
