The author discusses the monuments' construction techniques as a primary instrument for shaping space by taking into consideration the visual effects of the domed space of Romanesque architecture as diametrically opposed to architectural elements present in the Byzantine world. The analysis of the different construction phases of the churches considered is carried out based on archival documents, on a survey carried out in the field, and a reconstruction of their realities within a historical context. What emerges in this analysis is that a regional architecture's selection choices for construction should not be understood as an either-or scenario between Byzantium and the West, but rather as the result of a synthesis of different local architectural traditions that comes to fruition in Medieval Serbia.I Balcani occidentali tra romanico e bizantino ArchitectureArchitecture.720Filipović Aleksandra1347932NjHacINjHaclBOOK9910557294403321I Balcani occidentali tra romanico e bizantino3084912UNINA03176nam 2200541 450 991079789880332120230808212400.090-04-30839-310.1163/9789004308398(CKB)3710000000493087(EBL)4397616(SSID)ssj0001578872(PQKBManifestationID)16254527(PQKBTitleCode)TC0001578872(PQKBWorkID)14029344(PQKB)10611222(MiAaPQ)EBC4397616(nllekb)BRILL9789004308398(EXLCZ)99371000000049308720150908h20162016 uy| 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrThe alter-imperial paradigm empire studies & the book of Revelation /by Shane J.

Yet, Shane J. Wood argues this conclusion over-exaggerates Rome’s significance and, thus, misses Revelation’s true target—the construction of the alter-empire through the destruction of the preeminent adversary: Satan. Applying insights from Postcolonial criticism and 'Examinations of Dominance,' this monograph challenges trajectories of New Testament Empire Studies by developing an Alter-Imperial paradigm that appreciates the complexities between the sovereign(s) and subject(s) of a society—beyond simply rebellion or acquiescence. Shane J. Wood analyses Roman propaganda, Jewish interaction with the Flavians, and Domitianic persecution to interpret Satan's release (Rev 20:1-10) as the climax of God's triumphal procession. Thus, Rome provides the imagery; Eden provides the target.Biblical interpretation series ;Volume 140.Alter-imperial paradigm :empire studies and the book of RevelationImperialismBiblical teachingImperialismBiblical teaching.228/.06Wood Shane J.1471568MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797898803321The alter-imperial paradigm3683911UNINA
