Abstract:
The focal object is a key concept throughout this book, and it has its primary exposition in this chapter, which describes the space in which images function. Building on the idea of an image as a device, this chapter discusses how images operate before viewers and within visual fields that encompass them. The cult image, the relic, the place where Our Lady appeared, the site of the miraculous spring, oracle, or vision—such objects and places are where one meets the supernatural by forgetting the complex ecology and history in which the image or object is embedded. This masking of the manifold aspects of the network enables the ascription of agency to the focal object rather than to the extended assemblage of diverse actors forming the network.

Abstract:
The period of the Renaissance witnessed an extraordinary proliferation of miraculous events in Italy. Many of these miracles were connected to images of the Virgin Mary that were seen to weep, move, or speak out. In turn, these miraculous images acquired a reputation for helping the laity and were often called upon in times of crisis. Cults also grew up around miracle-working saints and printed accounts served to boost the fame of local shrines and pilgrimage sites. Making use of extensive visual and textual evidence, this chapter points to the many ways in which the Virgin and saints intervened in everyday domestic life. More fundamentally, it demonstrates for the first time the important role played by miracles in locating religion in the Italian Renaissance household.

Abstract:
Chapter 1 introduces the three locations which are focal points of this book’s research: the Veneto, the Marche, and Naples. Each was shaped by geography as well as history and exhibited a distinct cultural orientation: whereas the republic of Venice had strong links to Northern Europe through the transalpine trade routes, the region of the Marche was defined by its position within the Papal States and its relationship with the Adriatic, while Naples was for most of the period dominated by Spain. The three regions were independent in cult as well as culture. Each had its own shrines, miraculous images, centres of local pilgrimage, and favourite saints. All three showed a strong interest in religious reform long before the Reformation, and each reacted differently to the turmoil of the Counter Reformation.

Abstract:
Illustrated with remarkable new full-color images--indeed, one or more on every page--and written by one of the world's leading authorities on the subject, Reactions offers a compact, pain-free tour of the inner workings of chemistry. Reactions begins with the chemical formula almost everyone knows--the formula for water, H2O--a molecule with an "almost laughably simple chemical composition." But Atkins shows that water is also rather miraculous--it is the only substance whose solid form is less dense than its liquid (hence ice floats in water)--and incredibly central to many chemical reactions, as it is an excellent solvent, being able to dissolve gases and many solids. Moreover, Atkins tells us that water is actually chemically aggressive, and can react with and destroy the compounds dissolved in it, and he shows us what happens at the molecular level when water turns to ice--and when it melts. Moving beyond water, Atkins slowly builds up a toolkit of basic chemical processes, including precipitation (perhaps the simplest of all chemical reactions), combustion, reduction, corrosion, electrolysis, and catalysis. He then shows how these fundamental tools can be brought together in more complex processes such as photosynthesis, radical polymerization, vision, enzyme control, and synthesis. Peter Atkins is the world-renowned author of numerous best-selling chemistry textbooks for students. In this crystal-clear, attractively illustrated, and insightful volume, he provides a fantastic introductory tour--in just a few hundred colorful and lively pages - for anyone with a passing or serious interest in chemistry.

Abstract:
From the eleventh century onwards we see an increasing importance of supra-local cults for anthropomorphic deities all over China, including the worship of Lord Guan. In the conventional account of the spread of the cult, it is assumed that people were acquainted with the deity’s image from written narrative traditions, especially the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. This account derives in large part from the typical mind-set of literate elites (including modern scholars) that written texts trump all other forms of cultural influence. This chapter argues that the cult was transmitted all across northern China in particular in the form of oral stories that featured a miraculous event demonstrating Lord Guan’s power. It will be shown how the cult was already widespread by the first half of the early fourteenth century, long before the narrative traditions of the Three Kingdoms acquired their phenomenal popularity and were transformed into written texts.

Abstract:
Artists often explicitly consider themselves practitioners, acknowledging practising as the mode of doing from which work non-causally emerges. Practising recognises that novelty is best courted via a precise register of repetition, explored by Deleuze in Difference and Repetition. Linked to habit and unrelated to discipline (as impatience/compliance), practising mobilises consistent (sets of) behavioural forms along with intentional repetition via a relaxing that reinflects laziness. It generates a stability subtracted from identity, clarifying the directions of Deleuze’s thought concerning difference as that which precedes representation. Resonating with Deleuze’s dismantling of the dogmatic image of thought, practising intentionally harnesses the mechanisms of ‘miraculous’ repetition for a future constituted solely by time’s empty form. Via Deleuze’s exploration of repetition, difference and identity, their relation to habit and the paradoxical intentionalities of art-making, this chapter explores various aspects of practising’s operations, thereby unsettling common-sense understandings of agency, action, change, intention, capacity, difference and subjectivity

Abstract:
Guan Yu was a minor general in his own day, who supported one of numerous claimants to the throne in the early third century CE. He was captured and executed by enemy forces in 219. He eventually became one the most popular and influential deities of imperial China under the name Lord Guan or Emperor Guan, of the same importance as the Buddhist bodhisattva Guanyin. This is a study of his cult, but also of the tremendous power of oral culture in a world where writing became increasingly important. The book follows the rise of the deity through his earliest stage as a hungry ghost, his subsequent adoption by a prominent Buddhist monastery during the Tang (617–907) as its miraculous supporter, and his recruitment by Daoist ritual specialists during the Song dynasty (960–1276) as an exorcist general. It continues on with his subsequent roles as a rain god, protector against demons and barbarians, and, eventually, moral paragon and almost messianic saviour. Throughout his divine life, the physical prowess of the deity, more specifically Lord Guan’s ability to use violent action for doing good, remained an essential dimension of his image. Most research ascribes a decisive role in the rise of his cult to the literary traditions of the Three Kingdoms, best known from the famous novel by this name. This book argues that the cult arose from oral culture and spread first and foremost as an oral practice.
