The Porcelain Collection of the Grand Dukes of Hesse is admired worldwide. It comprises about one hundred and fifty objects, making it an important source of Frankenthal porcelain. The Frankenthal factory was one of the leading European porcelain makers in the latter half of the 18th century. Founded by Paul Anton Hannong in Strasbourg in 1721 as a faience manufactory, it moved to Frankenthal in 1755. The factory flourished after it was taken over by Carl Theodor, the Elector Palatine, in 1762. Modellers such as Franz Conrad Linck, Johann Friedrich L ck and Karl Gottlieb L ck enriched the stock of figurines by adding original and elegant models. Production at Frankenthal concentrated on court scenes, hunting scenes, allegories and the chinoisierie so popular in the Rococo period. The factory was disbanded in 1800 after a turbulent history. All pieces of porcelain in the porcelain collection of the grand dukes of Hesse are reproduced in colour and described. Introductory texts on the factory, techn

Neuware -Für Wilhelm Hopf war das Jahr 1866 das Jahr, das sein Leben prägte. Seine Heimat Kurhessen wurde von den Preußen annektiert. Aus politischen und kirchlichen Gründen engagierte er sich gegen Preußen und für die Wiedererrichtung der 'gottgewollten Ordnung'. Er war Mitbegründer einer kleinen Partei, die sich Rechtspartei nannte. Es ging um die Wiederherstellung des Rechts, der Eigenstaatlichkeit des Kurfürstentums Hessen-Kassel. Sein wesentliches Engagement widmete er allerdings den 'Hessischen Blättern', die von 1872 - 1921, bis zu seinem Tod, also fast 50 Jahre, erschienen. Es handelt sich dabei um ein kleines antipreußisches Blatt, das sich, wie alles Antipreußisch-Oppositionelle, der Beobachtung der nun preußischen Behörden ausgesetzt sah. Das Projekt war darauf ausgerichtet, die preußische Herrschaft zu delegitimieren, mehr noch, sie zu beseitigen. Interessanterweise funktionierte im kaiserlichen Deutschland der Rechtsstaat durchaus. Auch wennWilhelm Hopf einmal in Festungshaft kam, da er den Autor eines Artikels nicht nannte, so obsiegte er doch in den zahlreichen juristischen Auseinandersetzungen. Bezüge zur Gegenwart sind erkennbar. Wenn ein Staatsanwalt dem Angeklagten Hopf ans Herz legte: 'nicht durch derartige Erschütterungen der preußischen Autorität der Sozialdemokratie Wasser auf die Mühlen zu liefern, welche in 20 Jahren, wo die Hessische Rechtspartei nicht mehr existieren werde, zu einer für alle anderen furchtbaren Macht geworden sein dürfte', so kommt einem dies bekannt vor. 320 pp. Deutsch

Prior to a controversial gallery renovation, Tacita Dean documents the brown and beige jute walls, carpeted floor and other decor of the Hessisches Landesmuseum in Darmstadt, which houses the famous seven-room installation Block Beuys, 1970-86 by Joseph Beuys. Opponents of the renovation cite the importance of entropy in Beuys' work.

A Note About the Cover: "Evangeliary of St. Andreas of Cologne." (AE 679, fol. 126v, Hessisches Landesmuseum Darmstadt. Reprinted by permission). This eleventh-century manuscript demonstrates a trend of the High Middle Ages in which transcendental contemplation was initiated by abstract means. Here, thin washes of celestial colors elevate the animal flesh itself, the vellum on which words and pictures are elsewhere inscribed, to guide the viewer's thoughts from the physical world toward (though not all the way to) the invisible God.How did medieval people see art? How was it made, paid for, and used? Why was it necessary to social activities including teaching, civic processions, and missionary work, as well as to architecture and books? With 12 color plates and 54 plates in all, Seeing Medieval Art looks at art's functions and traces many crucial developments including the development of secular art and historical narrative, and the emergence of individual portraiture. This is the first title in a series called Rethinking the Middle Ages, which is committed to re-examining the Middle Ages, its themes, institutions, people, and events with short studies that will provoke discussion among students and medievalists, and invite them to think about the middle ages in new and unusual ways. The series editor, Paul Edward Dutton, invites suggestions and submissions.
