Beschreibung:
Roland Betancourt is Professor of Art History at the University of California, Irvine, where he has been awarded the distinction of Chancellor's Fellow from 2019-2022. Previously, he was the Elizabeth and J. Richardson Dilworth Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. His published books include Sight, Touch, and Imagination in Byzantium (Cambridge, 2018) and Byzantine Intersectionality: Sexuality, Gender, and Race in the Middle Ages (2020). His ongoing work focuses on Byzantine temporality and simulacral spaces, past and present.
Tracing the Gospel text from script to illustration to recitation, this study looks at how illuminated manuscripts operated within ritual and architecture. Focuses on a group of richly illuminated lectionaries from the late eleventh century and combines insights and approaches from sound studies, liturgical studies, and art history.
