JOHANNES OCKEGHEM (1410/1425-1497) est depuis la Renaissance au centre des préoccupations de théoriciens, d'amateurs, de musicologues qui se penchent sur le XVe siècle. Jugé par les uns compositeur difficile, voire énigmatique, hautement intellectuel ou même mystique, d'autres perçoivent dans sa technique musicale des éléments irrationnels que certains interprètent comme les traces d'une rationalité aboutie. Selon Erasme, il était " summo musico " et possédait une " aurea vox ". " Roy sur tous les chantres " aux dires de Nicole Le Vestu ou encore " Sol lucens super omnes " pour Molinet. Cosimo Bartoli n'hésite pas à le comparer à Donatello et le qualifie " homme de la Renaissance ". Né dans le Hainaut, il travaille quelques années à Anvers et à Moulins avant de s'installer à Tours où il exercera plusieurs fonctions officielles : premier chapelain du roi ainsi que chanoine et trésorier de la basilique Saint-Martin, il fut également mainte de chapelle à la cour de Charles VII et Louis XI. Ce volume réunit les contributions au XIe Colloque d'études humanistes qui s'est tenu au Centre d'Etudes Supérieures de la Renaissance en février 1997 à l'occasion du cinquième centenaire de la mort du compositeur.
Through forty-five creative and concise essays by an international team of authors, this Cambridge History brings the fifteenth century to life for both specialists and general readers. Combining the best qualities of survey texts and scholarly literature, the book offers authoritative overviews of central composers, genres, and musical institutions as well as new and provocative reassessments of the work concept, the boundaries between improvisation and composition, the practice of listening, humanism, musical borrowing, and other topics. Multidisciplinary studies of music and architecture, feasting, poetry, politics, liturgy, and religious devotion rub shoulders with studies of compositional techniques, musical notation, music manuscripts, and reception history. Generously illustrated with figures and examples, this volume paints a vibrant picture of musical life in a period characterized by extraordinary innovation and artistic achievement.
From emperors and queens to artists and world travelers, from popes and scholars to saints and heretics, Key Figures in Medieval Europe brings together in one volume the most important people who lived in medieval Europe between 500 and 1500. Gathered from the biographical entries from the on-going series, the Routledge Encyclopedias of the Middle Ages, these A-Z biographical entries discuss the lives of over 575 individuals who have had a historical impact in such areas as politics, religion, or the arts. Individuals from places such as medieval England, France, Germany, Iberia, Italy, and Scandinavia are included as well as those from the Jewish and Islamic worlds. A thematic outline is included that lists people not only by categories, but also by regions.
