Dürer's Open Letter -- $tConclusion -- $tAcknowledgments -- $tNotes -- $tIndex 330 $aArt historians have long looked to letters to secure biographical details; clarify relationships between artists and patrons; and present artists as modern, self-aware individuals. This book takes a novel approach: focusing on Albrecht Dürer, Shira Brisman is the first to argue that the experience of writing, sending, and receiving letters shaped how he treated the work of art as an agent for communication. In the early modern period, before the establishment of a reliable postal system, letters faced risks of interception and delay. During the Reformation, the printing press threatened to expose intimate exchanges and blur the line between public and private life. Exploring the complex travel patterns of sixteenth-century missives, Brisman explains how these issues of sending and receiving informed Dürer's artistic practices. His success, she contends, was due in large part to his development of pictorial strategies-an epistolary mode of address-marked by a direct, intimate appeal to the viewer, an appeal that also acknowledged the distance and delay that defers the message before it can reach its recipient. As images, often in the form of prints, coursed through an open market, and artists lost direct control over the sale and reception of their work, Germany's chief printmaker navigated the new terrain by creating in his images a balance between legibility and concealment, intimacy and public address. 606 $aCommunication and the arts$zGermany$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aCommunication in art$zGermany$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aVisual communication$zGermany$xHistory$y16th century 606 $aGerman letters$y16th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aWritten communication$zGermany$xHistory$y16th century 615 0$aCommunication and the arts$xHistory 615 0$aCommunication in art$xHistory 615 0$aVisual communication$xHistory 615 0$aGerman letters$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aWritten communication$xHistory 676 $a700.943 700 $aBrisman$b Shira, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0990214 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910154283903321 996 $aAlbrecht Dürer and the Epistolary Mode of Address$92264952 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05354nam 2200877Ia 450 001 9910345150503321 005 20251117060738.0 010 $a9786612935480 010 $a9786612086786 010 $a9781282086784 010 $a1282086782 010 $a9781282935488 010 $a1282935488 010 $a9781400828098 010 $a1400828090 024 7 $a10.1515/9781400828098 035 $a(CKB)1000000000756237 035 $a(EBL)445465 035 $a(OCoLC)368381441 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000121846 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11135016 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000121846 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10110982 035 $a(PQKB)11416666 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse43037 035 $a(DE-B1597)453567 035 $a(OCoLC)979578494 035 $a(DE-B1597)9781400828098 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL445465 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10284080 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL293548 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL4968550 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL208678 035 $a(OCoLC)1027205402 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC445465 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4968550 035 $a(Perlego)734539 035 $a(iGPub)PUPB0000075 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000756237 100 $a20070326d2008 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 00$aChristian political ethics /$fedited by John A.

Representing a unique fusion of faith-centered ethics and social science, the contributors bring into dialogue their own varying Christian understandings with a range of both secular ethical thought and other religious viewpoints from Judaism, Islam, and Confucianism. They explore divergent Christian views of state and society--and the limits of each. They grapple with the tensions that can arise within Christianity over questions of patriotism, civic duty, and loyalty to one's nation, and they examine Christian responses to pluralism and relativism, globalization, and war and peace. Revealing the striking pluralism inherent to Christianity itself, this pioneering volume recasts the meanings of Christian citizenship and civic responsibility, and raises compelling new questions about civil disobedience, global justice, and Christian justifications for waging war as well as spreading world peace. It brings Christian political ethics out of the churches and seminaries to engage with today's most vexing and complex social issues.
