The author presents it as a conglomerate of objects-things which act on the recipient in a specific – material and spatial – way.

This methodologically innovative approach is part of the latest research in early art in Western Europe and the United States. 2022-10-25T10:31:19Z 2022-10-25T10:31:19Z 2021 book ONIX_20221025_9783631841402_13 9783631841402 9783631841594 9783631841600 9783631821237 https://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/59062 eng application/pdf n/a 9783631841402.pdf Peter Lang International Academic Publishers 10.3726/b17833 10.3726/b17833 e927e604-2954-4bf6-826b-d5ecb47c6555 9783631841402 9783631841594 9783631841600 9783631821237 1032 Bern open access

This monograph book offers a new interpretation of northern European art of the fifteenth century. The author presents it as a conglomerate of objects-things which act on the recipient in a specific – material and spatial – way. He analyzes macro-scale objects that impose movement on the viewer, and micro-scale objects that encourage manipulation. Inspired by the anti-anthropocentric concept of “returning to things” (B. Latour, A. Gell and others), the author searches for the “agency of things” in late-medieval art objects, which evoke specific liturgical, devotional, propaganda-political behaviors, or establish the status of social owner of the object that once co-created the network of material and spiritual culture. This methodologically innovative approach is part of the latest research in early art in Western Europe and the United States.
