SUMMARY:2015 黑丝国产在线/Kress Lecture in Italy\, Naples
DESCRIPTION:Nino Zchomelidse\, "Scena Sacra - Tribuna Civica: Il ruolo d
 ell'ambone nella Campania medievale."\n\n\n\nThe sixth&nbsp\;annual 黑丝国产在线/
 Kress Italian Lecture series took place&nbsp\;on 20 May 2015 at 4 p.m&nb
 sp\;in the Aula Piovanniof the Dipartimento di Studi Umanistici at the c
 omplex of San Pietro Martire\, part of the Universit脿 degli Studi di Na
 poli Federico II. Professor Nino Zchomelidse (Johns Hopkins University) 
 presented a lecture in Italian titled 鈥淪cena Sacra 鈥� Tribuna Civica:
  Il ruolo dell鈥檃mbone nella Campania medievale.鈥� Prof. Zchomdelidse 
 is a specialist in the arts of medieval Italy and their connections with
  the lands of the eastern Mediterranean\, and her recent work has focuse
 d especially on liturgical furnishings\, manuscripts\, and pulpits.\n\n\
 n\n黑丝国产在线 Secretary (now Executive Vice President) Sean Roberts introduced 
 the speaker\, whose lecture built upon research first presented in her r
 ecent book Art\, Ritual\, and Civic Identity in Medieval Southern Italy 
 (Pennsylvania State University Press\, 2014). &nbsp\;Approximately 35 pe
 ople were in attendance\, split roughly 50/50 between English speaking s
 cholars and Italians. These included professors and students at the Univ
 ersit脿 degli Studi di Napoli Federico II\, several current Fellows from
  the Villa I Tatti in Florence\, and graduate students from American uni
 versities.\n\n\n\nIn her lecture\, Prof. Zchomdelidse sharpened the broa
 d geographic scope of her previous project to focus on mutable conceptio
 ns of ecclesiastical space\, and their relationship to a changing tradit
 ion of liturgy\, aptly within the environs of eleventh through thirteent
 h-century Naples and especially its environs in Campania.&nbsp\; In part
 icular\, through readings of both extant examples and illustrations in p
 eriod manuscript illumination\, she explored the evolving function of th
 e ambo\, or pulpit\, in the churches of medieval Campania. Through a fin
 e-grained analysis of the use of these pulpits for staging readings of S
 cripture\, as well as the iconography of their decoration\, she presente
 d a compelling case for the ways in which liturgy was celebrated as a di
 stinctive and highly localized practice that varied widely from region t
 o region. The early twelfth-century pulpit at the cathedral of Ravello\,
  for instance\, employed the motif of Jonah being swallowed by and subse
 quently emerging from the whale both to emphasize a typological relation
 ship to the liturgy and simultaneously as a galvanizing image for the lo
 cal congregation as the story played a particularly prominent role in th
 e Easter Mass in Campania. In this way\, Prof. Zchomelidse convincingly 
 demonstrated the ways in which pulpits served the dual purpose of re-sta
 ging scriptural\, and especially Christological\, spaces and events for 
 believers while helping to craft a civic identity specific to medieval C
 ampania. A lively question and answer session followed the talk.\n\n\n\n
