Byzanz zwischen Orient und Okzident 5, Feb 2017

Furthermore it enabled exposure to distant spaces. Ships as significant objects on the one hand have been decorated and embroidered, on the other hand themselves became topics of artificial presentation. Thereby the span ranges from sketchy graffito to three-dimensional reproduction. The context of the artworks comprises as different fields as public and private representation and religion.
This volume contains 18 articles, which have been presented during an international workshop held in Mainz in 2013. Spaning the period from the Bronze Age to the end of the Byzantine realm, various groups of material have been researched and development, as well on shipbuilding as on nautics, is described. Thereby depictions of ships are focussed, which are rarely investigated so far.

Während das römische Porträt in seinen verschiedenen Formen bereits Thema intensiver Forschungen war, widmen sich erst relativ wenige Studien den anschließenden Epochen der Zeit bis zur Eroberung Konstantinopels. Vor dem Hintergrund der umfassenden Wandlungsprozesse zwischen Antike und Mittelalter bietet das Thema der Anlässe und Formen privater Darstellungen einen sehr vielschichtigen Zugang zur bislang noch kaum in einen größeren Kontext gestellten Entwicklung des Porträts. Die Darstellung realer Personen ist seit jeher ein Grundanliegen der künstlerischen Äußerung: sich selbst darstellen zu lassen oder andere dargestellt zu sehen war ein stets aktuelles Thema, das immer wieder neue Ausformungen fand. Am Ausgang der römischen Antike standen ein reicher Formenapparat und ein reiches Spektrum an Möglichkeiten für private Porträts zur Verfügung, mit denen man im Alltag oder zu besonderen Anlässen konfrontiert wurde. Darstellungsweise, Motivation, Kontext und Aussageintention solcher Porträts unterliegen insbesondere im hier interessierenden Zeitraum vom Ende der Antike bis zum Ende des Mittelalters wechselnden Traditionen und Entwicklungen. Im Rahmen des Workshops wird diesen Aspekten nachgegangen, um die Art und Weise der Darstellung realer Personen in der spätantiken und byzantinischen Kunst zu fassen.

The concept of sins and their punishment in the afterlife is closely associated with certain cult... more The concept of sins and their punishment in the afterlife is closely associated with certain cultures and/or religions especially Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The fear of the consequences of sinful behaviour was a welcome tool for teaching and of control in the hands of religious leaders, who further reshaped the concept of sin. The conference aims to highlight and explore various aspects of the topic based on written and visual sources. One of the main issues considered is to identify the nature of sin within these cultures and religions and what forms a punishable sin after death. As well as exploring the ways in which sinners and punishments are described and represented in words and images, another point to be addressed is the extent of the socio-historical value of the available texts and illustrations. The focus of interest is on the sources of the Mediterranean region. Christianity provides the main reference point for exploring the material since its emergence postdates that of Judaism and predates that of Islam. As this conference forms the sixth and final workshop within the parameters of the Leverhulme International Network Team, which since 2010 has been working on a project assessing the representations of hell in frescoes of Venetian-dominated Crete (13th-17th centuries), it also includes a presentation of the initial results of the members' ongoing research.
This conference is part of the Leverhulme International Network Project Damned in Hell in
the Frescoes of Venetian-Dominated Crete (13th- 17th centuries) managed by Dr Angeliki
Lymberopoulou (The Open University, Milton Keynes) and Prof. Dr. Vasiliki Tsamakda (The
Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz).
