    Benedictine Culture 750-1050 (2021)
    Leuven University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-01-31
    Description: At the suggestion of the Benedictine, Cistercian and Trappist communities of Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg, the 10th International Colloquium (May 19-21, 1980) organized by the Instituut voor Middeleeuwse Studies was devoted to the commemoration of the 15th Centenary of the birth of St. Benedict of Nursia. It was clear to the editors of the present collection of essays that only select aspects of the manifold cultural and economic life of these monastic communities could be presented in a single volume. Nevertheless it was hoped that the reader might intuit the constant evolution and adaptation to altered social circumstances characteristic of the Benedictine communities, and thus participate in the process of discovery shared by members of the Colloquium. To enhance this sense of discovery and to suggest the continuing Benedictine contribution during the following epoch, the editors accepted a final study, which of course extends beyond the strict chronological limits of the volume.

    Transpositions (2021)
    Leuven University Press | University College London
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-24
    Description: "New modes of epistemic relationships in artistic research Research leads to new insights rupturing the existent fabric of knowledge. Situated in the still evolving field of artistic research, this book investigates a fundamental quality of this process. Building on the lessons of deconstruction, artistic research invents new modes of epistemic relationships that include aesthetic dimensions. Under the heading transposition, seventeen artists, musicians, and theorists explain how one thing may turn into another in a spatio-temporal play of identity and difference that has the power to expand into the unknown. By connecting materially concrete positions in a way familiar to artists, this book shows how moves can be made between established positions and completely new ground. In doing so, research changes from a process that expands knowledge to one that creatively reinvents it.

    Powers of Divergence (2021)
    Leuven University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-24
    Description: "Beyond resemblance: creative divergence in music performance What does it mean to produce resemblance in the performance of written music? Starting from how this question is commonly answered by the practice of interpretation in Western notated art music, this book proposes a move beyond commonly accepted codes, conventions and territories of music performance. Appropriating reflections from post-structural philosophy, visual arts and semiotics, and crucially based upon an artistic research project with a strong creative and practical component, it proposes a new approach to music performance. The approach is based on divergence, on the difference produced by intensifying the chasm between the symbolic aspect of music notation and the irreducible materiality of performance. Instead of regarding performance as reiteration, reconstruction and reproduction of past musical works, Powers of Divergence emphasises its potential for the emergence of the new and for the problematisation of the limits of musical semiotics."

    The Bible and Medieval Culture (2021)
    Leuven University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-01-31
    Description: From May 16th to 19th 1977, philologist, historians, sociologists, philosophers and theologians gathered in Louvain, to attend the Vllth International Colloquium organized by the 'Instituut voor Middeleeuwse Studies' of the 'Katholieke Universiteit te Leuven', to discuss and investigate the influence of the Bible on medieval culture. It is indisputable that medieval society in its various aspects was deeply penetrated and strongly influenced by the Bible. Many important studies have already been published on this subject, but the organizers of the Colloquium recognized that much further work was still required, and focussed attention on three fundamental problems, to which the attention of participants was directed. Firstly, some centuries passed before the Bible was translated into vernacular languages, as a result of the Church's policy that the Bible should only be read in one of the 'sacred languages' - Hebrew, Greek or Latin. The vulgate version for Western christendom was St Jerome's Latin translation, but a stimulus and demand gradually grew for vernacular translations. In the course of the 9th century, the Frankish Otfrid of Weissenburg raised the significant question whether the language of the Franks was indeed to trivial or inferior that it was worthless or useless for speaking to God. But the Church was reluctant to permit the Bible to be translated into the common tongues, through fear of the confusion and uncertainty which might result for uneducated people. Nevertheless, and secondly, in spite of many obstacles, such translations in fact appeared, principally in German, Anglo-Saxon, French and Dutch. And thirtly, in consequence of these developments, the Bible impacted a specific outlook to medieval society, and the translators recorded in their versions the contemporary customs and habits of their people. The Bible translations created a new vocabulary, and the translators used their own language and idioms to render the Bible stories more lively and comprehensible. The various contributions to the International Colloquium dealt with these three themes, as well as other aspects of medieval life on which the Bible left its mark.

    Description: In de negentiende eeuw stond de Kerk eerder afwijzend tegenover alles wat met lichaamscultuur te maken had. Onder maatschappelijke druk kwam qgeleidelijk aan een meer positieve houding tot stand ten opzicht van lichamelijke opvoeding en sport. In 1892 werd de Belgische Katholieke Turnbond gesticht als overkoepelend orgaan van vele lokale turnkringen. Het schoolvak lichamelijke opvoeding werd jarenlang gekenmerkt door een strijd tussen het Duitse turnen en de Zweedse gymnastiek. Het duurde tot 1993 vooraleer twee lesuren lichamelijke opvoeding veralgemeend werden ingevoerd in het katholiek onderwijs. De moderne sport, die in de tweede helft van de negentiende eeuw uit Engeland kwam overwaaien, stuitte aanvankelijk op verzet in Vlaamse katholieke middens. De collegeleerlinge raakten echter volledig in de ban de voetbalsport en reeds vanaf 1908 werd de Kardinaalsbeker betwist tussen de katholieke scholen. Ook de jeugdbewegingen gingen selectief lichamelijke opvoeding en sport in hun werking opnemen. Verder wordt in deze bundel de betekenis geschetst van enkele merkwaardige figuren: Pater van Cl
