Portemann, Karel: Emblematic Exhibitions (affixiones) at the Brussels Jesuit College (1630 - 1685)

A Study of the Commemorative Manuscripts (Royal Library, Brussels). With Contributions by Elly Cockx-Indestege, Dirk Sacré and Marcus de Schepper. The study shows the importance of the series of seventeenth-century emblem manuscrits, produced to commemorate the creative achievments of the pupils of the Brussels Jesuit College at the annual affixiones to international emblem research. At the same time the study is a contribution to the history of Brussels. The close ties of the Jesuit College with the City and the Court are evident from its participation in ceremonies and festivals, whether political or religious. 198 Seiten mit 220 Abb., Großformat, Leinen (Brepols 1996)
