Content: Mimesis or imitation comes in many forms, from animal and plant mimicry to artistic copies 'from life'. This book offers eighteen essays addressing mimesis from diverse perspectives. From the recreation of galaxies to Iron Age torcs, from counterfeit dragons to modern waxworks, each chapter explores facets of material mimesis from prehistory to the present day. The Matter of Mimesis invites readers to compare practices of imitating, faking, and synthesising materials and objects in nature, art and science, raising questions about skills, techniques and politics of making that transcend historical and disciplinary boundaries and inform both our past and future worlds.

Content: A key work for research on the arts of the High Middle Ages is a book handed down under the pseudonym Theophilus Presbyter titled Schedula diversarum atrium (On Divers Arts), which furnishes a reflection on the artes mechanicae together with a comprehensive overview of all aspects of knowledge. Included in this work is a review of the textual history of the Schedula diversarum atrium as well as new hypotheses on the identity of its author.

Content: Unter dem Pseudonym Theophilus Presbyter ist eine für die Erforschung und das Verständnis der hochmittelalterlichen Künste zentrale Schrift überliefert: die Schedula diversarum artium. Die drei von Prologen eingeleiteten Bücher enthalten äußerst detailreiche Anweisungen über Fertigungsweisen nahezu aller mittelalterlichen Kunstgegenstände - von der Buch- und Wandmalerei über die Glas- und Goldschmiedekunst bis hin zum Glockenguß und Orgelbau. Doch sind der Status dieser Texte und ihr Verhältnis zu den beschriebenen Tätigkeiten und Objekten unklar. Nach dem Zusammenbruch der bisherigen Autor- und Werkstatthypothese gilt das Forschungsinteresse verstärkt der Eigenart und der Überlieferung der Schrift selbst, die weit mehr als eine bloße Rezeptsammlung ist und die Verschriftlichung überlieferter und zeitgenössischer Praktiken und Techniken mit der Vermittlung an ein literates Publikum verbindet. Hierbei reflektiert die Schedula die Aufwertung der artes mechanicae im Zusammenhang einer umfassenden enzyklopädischen Sicht des Wissens in allen seinen Facetten, wie sie für das 12. Jahrhundert charakteristisch ist. Der enzyklopädische Charakter und die systematische Anordnung und Präsentation verweisen darüber hinaus auf den Kontext naturphilosophischer, technischer und medizinischer Texte unter dem Einfluß arabischer Wissenschaften seit der Mitte des 11. Jahrhunderts. In diese Richtung weist auch die in diesem Band diskutierte neueste Autorhypothese.

Content: "Both medieval panel painters and those working in the fifteenth century created works that evoke the glow of precious stones, the sheen of polished gold and silver, and the colorful radiance of stained glass. Yet their approach to rendering these materials is markedly different. Marjolijn Bol explores some of the reasons behind this radical transformation by telling the history of the two oil painting techniques used to depict everything that glistens and glows-the varnish and the glaze. For more than a century after his death, the fifteenth century painter Jan van Eyck was widely credited with the invention of varnish and oil paint, on account of his unique visual realism. This was a myth, however, and after it was revealed as such, the remarkable verisimilitude of his work was attributed instead to a new translucent painting technique, a technique the artist could have only innovated with oil paint already at his disposal: the glaze.

Content: Today, most theories about how Van Eyck achieved his visual realism revolve around this idea: that he was the first to discover or refine the glazing technique. Bol, however, argues that, rather than being a fifteenth-century refinement, varnishing and glazing began centuries before and, moreover, that these two techniques were not only explored by painters but were developed by a variety of artisans as part of the medieval material culture of splendor. Artisans embellished metalwork and wood with varnishes and glazes to imitate gems and enamel; infused rock crystal with oil, resin, and colorants to imitate more precious minerals; and oiled parchment to transform it into the appearance of green glass. Likewise, medieval panel painters used varnishes and glazes to create the look of water, silk, and more.

Content: What's more, Bol shows how the explorations of materials and their optical properties by these artists stimulated natural philosophers to come up with theories about transparent and translucent materials produced by nature"--
