Het religieuze bouwen in de Zuidelijke Nederlanden tijdens de 17de eeuw wordt gekenmerkt door een grote diversiteit en originaliteit. Als één der meest noordelijke territoria van Europa waar de Contrareformatie wordt ingevoerd, spelen deze streken vanaf de laatste decennia van de 16de eeuw immers de rol van laboratorium waarin een nieuwe religieuze architectuur moet worden ontwikkeld. De in deze bundel verzamelde studies belichten de complexe architectuurtheoretische discussies die in de Nederlanden, net zoals in Italië, rond de problematiek van de 'nieuwe kerk' werden gevoerd en het ingewikkelde proces dat voorafging aan het tot stand komen van nieuwe typologieën in de kerkenbouw tijdens de eerste decennia van de 17de eeuw. Vitruviaanse theorie, Italiaanse voorbeelden uit gravures en traktaten en niet in de laatste plaats, de traditionele bouwpraktijk met haar 'gotische' onderstroom spelen alle een rol in de achtergrond. Het réveil onder de aartshertogen Albrecht en Isabella betekent een sleutelperiode in deze ontwikkeling: de aartshertogen voeren immers een bewuste politiek van wederopbouw en vernieuwing, gevoed door contrareformatorische denkbeelden en gestuurd door hun voorkeur voor een welbepaalde, Italianiserende architectuur. Hun hofarchitecten zijn de bellissimi ingegni of hoogst ingenieuze architecten die in Rubens' woorden (1626) bijdragen tot grandissimo splendore van hun opdrachtgevers: Wensel Cobergher en Jacques Franquart. Ook de rol van de nieuwe Contrareformatorische orden, in de eerste plaats de jezuïeten, wordt in deze bundel onderzocht. Zij introduceerden een nieuw, modern kerktype in de Zuidelijke Nederlanden en vormden spoedig, naast het hof van Brussel, de belangrijkste verspreiders van de nieuwe vormentaal. Een uitgebreide verzameling architectuurtekeningen bewaard in hun archief geeft een unieke kijk op de toenmalige ontwerppraktijk en op de architecturale inspiratiebronnen van de orde. De studies hebben een verschillende ontstaansreden, maar staan alle in nauw verband met het onderzoeksproject Eenheid en Tweespalt. Architectonische relaties tussen de Zuidelijke en Noordelijke Nederlanden 1530-1700, dat van 1997 tot 2000 werd uitgevoerd door de onderzoeksgroep architectuurgeschiedenis van de Katholieke Universiteit Leuven in samenwerking met de Universiteit Utrecht, met steun van het Vlaams-Nederlands Comité. Aan de basis ervan ligt het onderzoekswerk dat door studenten kunsthistorici, historici, architecten en burgerlijk ingenieur-architecten in de loop van het academiejaar 1997-1998 onder begeleiding van de eindredacteurs werd uitgevoerd

The Southern Low Countries were among Europe’s core regions for the repression of sodomy during the late medieval period. As the first comprehensive study on sodomy in the Southern Low Countries, this book charts the prosecution of sodomy in some of the region’s leading cities, such as Bruges, Ghent and Antwerp, from 1400 to 1700 and explains the reasons behind local differences and variations in the intensity of prosecution over time. Through a critical examination of a range of sources, this study also considers how the urban fabric perceived sodomy and provides a broader interpretive framework for its meaning within the local culture.

At various points over the course of the 20th century, the Belgian State and its various ministries and provinces consciously chose to subsidise not only the fine arts but also the applied and decorative arts, and in particular the art of weaving tapestry. On the one hand, orders were placed for World Exhibitions and for Belgian embassies, and on the other competitions were held for tapestries to be hung in important locations such as the United Nations and NATO headquarters, and the exhibitions that were organized by the various ministries over the years. They provided an overview of the ways in which this branch of the arts was changing as well as representative work by the best tapestry designers. The exhibitions organized by the provincial authorities give quite a different image. There were the highly conventional exhibitions of Brabantine tapestries to promote the craftsmanship of the province and there were the more innovative textile exhibitions. Taken as a whole, the commissions, competitions and exhibitions give a good overview of what was happening in Belgium in the field of tapestry over the period 1945-1980. They also make it clear what image was being projected abroad: that of a country with rich traditions, master craftsmanship in weaving, and in the 1970s some affiliation to the latest developments in European textile art.

During the sixteenth century Antwerp was at the forefront of the Renaissance north of the Alps. Not only a new architectural style flourished in the Antwerp metropolis, but at the end of the sixteenth century sciences such as mathematics, optics, geometry and perspective became more and more important. They helped to redefine architecture and the other fine arts on a more scientific base. Their introduction in the arts at the beginning of the seventeenth century lead to new experiences, applications and even innovations in architecture. The Jesuit Order played a very crucial rule in this process. The realization of their new church in the centre of the city of Antwerp became one of the first attempts to bring together the applications of all those new ideas in one total project. Paintings by Peter Paul Rubens and sculptures by Hieronymus Duquenoy, Artus Quellinus etc. were participating in one of the first Early Baroque architectural realizations in the Low Countries. The Jesuit Church of Antwerp, actually the St Carolus Borromeus Church, was designed by Francois d'Aguilon, a scientist and architect of the Jesuit Order. His publication Opticorum Libri sex on optics and on the reflection of light was edited by the Officina Plantiniana in 1613, the same year he started his project for the church. This scientific and theoretical work helps us to understand the new experiences with light and space he experimented with. It is the aim of this publication to bring together researchers to confront the results of their studies about the interpretation of the facade of this Counter-Reformation church, the phenomenon of diffuse light created by reflection and refraction on marble statues, pillars and multiple ornaments, the combination of linear and parallel perspective applications, the sacral and social use of space, the signification of the facade and towers as parts of a perspective scene in the city landscape and the relationship of Rubens's paintings with the Baroque interior. Special attention is also devoted to the School of Mathematics, installed in Antwerp by the Jesuits at that time. The central question will be whether we can conclude that at the beginning of the seventeenth century the innovative sense of creating a new architecture, so typical for the sixteenth century in Antwerp, still persisted in this city during the early seventeenth century, and even lead to a new interpretation of architectural space in European context."

Women and Gender in the Early Modern Low Countries, 1500-1750 brings together research on women and gender across the Low Countries, a culturally contiguous region that was split by the Eighty Years' War into the Protestant Dutch Republic in the North and the Spanish-controlled, Catholic Hapsburg Netherlands in the South. The authors of this interdisciplinary volume highlight women’s experiences of social class, as family members, before the law, and as authors, artists, and patrons, as well as the workings of gender in art and literature. In studies ranging from microhistories to surveys, the book reveals the Low Countries as a remarkable historical laboratory for its topic and points to the opportunities the region holds for future scholarly investigations. Contributors: Martine van Elk, Martha Howell, Martha Moffitt Peacock, Sarah Joan Moran, Amanda Pipkin, Katlijne Van der Stighelen, Margit Thøfner, and Diane Wolfthal.
