Exploring Cultural History: Essays in Honour of Peter Burke

Rebeka Vidrih

This contribution will attempt to show that Aby Warburg was basically still a formalist art historian, a representative of Stilgeschichte, who did strive to extend the narrow art historical question of style into a wider, cultural topic of the influence of Antiquity on subsequent historical periods, but he could hardly be labelled an iconographer in the usual sense, that is, as an art historian occupied primarily with the content of a work of art, as opposed to its form. The contribution will also attempt to demonstrate that his art historical work was not as fragmented and particularized as is usually believed, but was, on the contrary, guided throughout by a quite consistent vision of the development of art and its role in the cultural evolution of humanity

A Conference paper. An attempt to understand the avoidance of interpretations in the late art historical works of the two authors. Question: What kind of an ideology is implicated in the demand for an art historical narrative, which would be laying claim to sensual experiences of images but dismissing all iconological practices? Presented in Image=Gesture: the 5th Nomadikon Meeting. Bergen 9.11.2011.

Zwei Fragen bilden den Ausgangspunkt: Ist es möglich, eine allgemeine und 'wirksame' Methode zur Kunstgeschichte zu finden? Welche sind die geisteswissenschaftlichen Disziplinen, die besonders herangezogen werden können, um die Forschungsarbeit eines Kunsthistorikers zu unterstützen und zu bereichern? In diesem Beitrag wird eine kurze Analyse der Praxis der Kunstgeschichte vorangestellt – und 'versucht', indem sowohl Berührungspunkte mit als auch Unterscheidungen zu anderen wissenschaftlichen Forschungsmethoden diskutiert werden. Kann man etwa, da Kunstgeschichte normalerweise in Form von wörtlicher "Erzählung" erscheint, wirklich über eine Übereinstimmung zwischen der konkreten Präsenz des Kunstgegenstandes in der Realität und seiner Existenz im Text sprechen? Im Beitrag wird auch der Vorschlag gemacht, die Kunstgeschichte konsequent in einem ideengeschichtlichen Kontext zu betrachten, vornehmlich in der Richtung, die Arthur Lovejoy in seinem berühmten Essay The Great Chain of Being vorgeschlagen hat. Im Grunde schlägt die Ideengeschichte stets eine Brücke zwischen verschiedenen Disziplinen und kann immer neue Aspekte einer Epoche beleuchten, die ansonsten in fachspezifischen Forschungen verbannt oder sogar vernachlässigt bleiben würden. Die Ideengeschichte sollte so idealerweise die Kunstgeschichte immer begleiten und sie dabei unterstützen, etwa das Moment der "schöpferischen Intuition", im Sinne von Henri Bergson, der Prägung einer Theorie oder einer neuen Kunstepoche zu ergreifen, um darüber eine Art Osmose zwischen den Standpunkten von Gegenwart und Vergangenheit zu fördern.

Many Festschriften languish as burial mounds of miscellanea, glued together with little more than the good intentions of former students out to honour a retiring master. This collection of essays offers something different. To begin with, it keeps a close, tight focus on a central question: the extraordinary impact Peter Burke has had on history in general, and cultural history in particular, during almost five decades. At the same time it strives mightily, and on the whole successfully, to replicate in practice Burke’s own strengths as a historian. Three of these are especially present throughout the text.

The first is the notable variety—in terms of subject-matter as well as geographical focus—that marks the seventeen chapters in this book. Few historians working in any field have managed to write about such a wide range of topics as has Burke. It thus comes as little surprise to find a similar breadth among the contributions to this volume. Their geographical reach spans a dozen countries or empires—albeit with a certain predilection for France and Italy. Their themes are even more diverse. The book opens with ecotypes in Scandinavian (and other) folklore traditions (David Hopkin), and closes with the confluence of antiquarianism and popular writing in nineteenth-century Ireland (Clare O’Halloran). In between, the reader meets violence-prone Knights of Malta (Carmel Cassar), dancing savages in the New World (Alessandro Arcangeli), Counter-Reformation saints (Thomas Worcester, Helen Hills), and inter-confessional negotiators in Switzerland (Daniela Hacke). Monarchs loom unusually large as protagonists, whether participating in public rituals in Spain (María José del Río), or studying novel approaches to statecraft and posing as the heroes of competing iconographies and constitutional traditions in France (Jacob Soll, Nicole Hochner, Nicholas Dew). Other, less personalised, themes include shifts in political language and justifications of state policy (Silje Normand, Pärtel Piirimäe), the role of cities as theatres for novel forms of cultural display (Gabriel Guarino, Herman Roodenburg), and the influence of cultural mistakes on Great Britain's brief administration of the Ionian Islands (Maria Fusaro). Finally, Burke himself is the subject of a brief reflection on his little-known role as journalist in Brazil (Ángel Gurría-Quintana).

In this volume, a distinguished group of international historians has come together to consider the rise of cultural history in general, and to highlight the particular role played in this rise by Peter Burke, the first professor of Cultural History at the University of Cambridge and one of the most prolific and influential authors in the field.

Reflecting the many and varied interests of Peter Burke, the essays in this volume cover a broad range of topics, geographies and chronologies. Grouped into four sections, 'Historical Anthropology', 'Politics and Communication', 'Images' and 'Cultural Encounters', the collection explores the boundaries and possibilities of cultural history; each essay presenting an opportunity to engage with the wider issues of the methods and problems of cultural history, and with Peter Burke's contributions to each chosen theme. Taken as a whole the collection shows how cultural history has enriched the ways in which we understand the traditional fields of political, economic, literary and military history, and permeates much of what we now understand as social history. It also demonstrates how cultural history is now at the heart of the coming together of traditional disciplines, providing a meeting ground for a variety of interests and methodologies.

Offering a wide international perspective, this volume complements another Ashgate publication, Popular Culture in Early Modern England, which focuses on Peter Burke's influence on the study of popular culture in English history.
