What do they all mean - the lascivious ape, autophagic dragons, pot-bellied heads, harp-playing asses, arse-kissing priests and somersaulting jongleurs to be found protuding from the edges of medieval buildings and in the margins of illuminated manuscripts? Michael Camille explores that riotous realm of marginal art, so often explained away as mere decoration or zany doodles, where resistance to social constraints flourished. Medieval image-makers focused attention on the underside of society, the excluded and the ejected. Peasants, servants, prostitutes and beggars all found their place, along with knights and clerics, engaged in impudent antics in the margins of prayer-books or, as gargoyles, on the outsides of churches. Camille brings us to an understanding of how marginality functioned in medieval culture and shows us just how scandalous, subversive and amazing the art of the time could be.

很不错的对中世纪各类艺术的研究，把margin从人类学的概念里面带进更具体的艺术作品和社会现象中去，边界不仅持续地评判、谐拟、颠覆着中心的图像，同时也不可避免地重申着中心的位置和权力。边界不仅被用来分析手抄本文字四周的图案、教堂角落里的各种动物/怪物浮雕，也定义这社会的不同阶层、艺术家本身、甚至中心的自我矛盾。Camille从后现代自身的很多身份和社会建构的定义出发，将中世纪的社会和艺术看成是对众多社会矛盾和意识形态的冲突折射入表现形式的过程，这些我们所谓的“grotesque”在中世纪具有流动性的含义，所谓的“other”和中心的关系也绝非二元对立这么简单。读完消除很多对中世纪的社会essentialist的定义。Camille的语言也诙谐得很。
评分在常人视线不可到达的教堂角落里的搞怪雕刻，好好玩。作者想要表达的是中世纪工匠的相对自由，强调教堂是作为多重场所的空间，由此展开对中世纪“世俗VS神圣”的更深入理解。但也会困惑，既然看不见，这些自由显示出来的对“权威”的嘲讽力量究竟多大？毕竟从观看方式，或者视觉经验来说，它和手抄本中边缘艺术的性质不同。 （一年前跟着老师去云冈，大家惊讶于登上梯子时看到的飞天，竟然如此憨憨可爱。后来老师讨论这个现象时引用了一个中世纪教堂的研究，现在想想应该就是本书了）
评分Camille先生好像蛮高兴的。
