They offer a satiric interpretation of their time, and their work often perverts the typological reading of history illustrated in the Bible by opposing the promises of a second coming by Christ with the horrors of the war and the Holocaust, suggesting that the concept of “sacrifice” has no redemptive value. Anthony Hecht, an American post-war formalist, expresses this message through an ekphrastic medium, specifically emblems, inspired by mediaeval culture and Renaissance poetry. One of his early works, The Seven Deadly Sins, in collaboration with the engraver Leonard Baskin, presents a modern collection of emblem poems featuring the figure of Christ, which like the emblematic form can be seen as “word made flesh”. Through their combinations of icons and words, the emblems become the perfect form to assess the dialectical opposition between God and man, body and soul, past and present.

La cuestión que se plantea aquí no versa sobre la imagen de la Virtud en sí misma. Esta será valorada y tenida en cuenta para señalar su unidad sin olvidar los aspectos volubles de su presunta configuración monolítica, capaces de generar cambios notorios en su apariencia icónica. Este estudio se concentra en la revisión de sus ausencias en el arte catalán medieval. Con el fin de describir y analizar estos espacios hueros, que nos hacen pensar en una negación de la Justicia –osea de su personificación femenina–, examino su presencia reiterada, o esporádica, en distintos lugares de Europa, al tiempo que me aproximo a las que fueron sus alternativas en contextos religiosos y civiles catalanes. Este cesar en sus funciones no debió ser condicionado tan solo por un desconocimiento y, en todo caso, pudo ser fruto de un pensamiento gráfico disyuntivo que prioriza otros temas y motivos cuando se trata de representar las ideas de juicio o de justicia.","PeriodicalId":40541,"journal":{"name":"Eikon Imago","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82880579","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}

En el presente estudio nos adentrarnos en su significado rastreando en la patrística y en la tradición iconográfica la ligazón que une ambos elementos –Jesé y árbol de consanguinidad– y, a su vez, estos con la bendición de la unión de los primeros padres. Todo ello nos permite reconocer la insistencia de su artífice en el carácter sacramental del matrimonio, el vínculo de las imágenes con la liturgia nupcial contemporánea, así como explicar el sentido de dichas imágenes religiosas en este manuscrito jurídico.","PeriodicalId":40541,"journal":{"name":"Eikon Imago","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90906616","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}

Al tratarse de un precepto religioso y, por tanto, de obligado cumplimiento, la jurisprudencia islámica buscó una alternativa legal para realizar la peregrinación por procuración. En consecuencia, a finales del s. XI surgieron los certificados de peregrinación, documentos legales que acreditaban el cumplimiento de este precepto a través de un delegado. El transcurso desigual de estos documentos en la cultura material de la peregrinación islámica hace especialmente interesante el análisis de aquellos producidos desde el s. XIX, cuando parecen resurgir en las colecciones modernas. Este artículo presenta uno de esos certificados, conservado en la British Library (ORB.50/11). Contiene diversas ilustraciones de los principales lugares sagrados del islam y un diseño similar a otros ejemplares diseminados en colecciones europeas. El estudio comparado de su iconografía nos permitirá analizar el proceso de estandarización de estos certificados y sus copias antes de que la imprenta desechara el formato de rollo.","PeriodicalId":40541,"journal":{"name":"Eikon Imago","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2023-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85922913","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}
