Cíle předmětu
The subject of three monographs in some forty years, of an ambitious exhibition (Salerno, Museo Diocesano, 2007–08), and of numerous shorter studies, the so-called Salerno ivories preserved and kept mainly in the Museo Diocesano in Salerno, with individual plaques held by other major museums in the world, remain a mystery; fundamental questions regarding their patrons, the period and circumstances of their design and production, and the object they originally decorated are to this day open to speculation.The Salerno ivories clearly lie at the very heart of the complex nature of “Mediterranean art” at a time of intense commercial and cultural exchange, in which Salerno and Amalfi played significant roles. So many essential questions are still subject to debate: whether they were commissioned by a pope, an archbishop, or a powerful secular ruler; if they were carved in the eleventh or twelfth century; if this occurred in Salerno, Amalfi, Palermo, or Rome, in a monastery, at a court, or in an independent workshop; if they were part of an archiepiscopal throne, an antependium, a set of doors, or a reliquary. And in absence of specific historical sources they, unfortunately, will remain so. What the course will highlight, is their importance and relevance as index of the multicultural art and culture of the Normans in southern Italy.
