This revised edition incorporates the additions and corrections recorded by Erwin Panofsky until the time of his death in 1968. Gerda Panofsky-Soergel has updated the commentary in the light of new material, and the bibliography that she has prepared reflects the scholarship on St.-Denis in the last three decades. She has obtained some additional and more recent photographs, and the illustrations include a new ground plan and a new section of the chevet of the Abbey Church, both drawn under the supervision of Sumner McKnight Crosby.
Erwin Panofsky taught until 1933 at the University of Hamburg and, later, at New York University and Princeton University, joining the faculty of the institute for Advanced Study, Princeton, in 1935. His writings are considered among the most important of the twentieth century in art history.
Review:
"Dr. Panofsky is to be congratulated on producing, for the first time in any modern language, the whole of Suger's writing on St.-Denis, an unparalleled historical, archaeological, and ecclesiological text, and one of the world's literary treasures, a central pillar of the twelfth-century renaissance. . . . This is a work of first-class importance, and destined to remain the standard edition for a long time to come."--The Burlington Magazine

Another Princeton book authored or coauthored by Erwin Panofsky:

Suger served as the friend and counsellor both of Louis VI and Louis VII. He urged the king to destroy the feudal bandits, was responsible for the royal tactics in dealing with the communal movements, and endeavoured to regularize the administration of justice. He left his abbey, which possessed considerable property, enriched and embellished by the construction of anew church built in the nascent Gothic style. Suger wrote extensively on the construction of the abbey in Liber de Rebus in Administratione sua GestisLibellus Alter de Consecratione Ecclesiae Sancti Dionysii, and Ordinatio. In the 1940s, the prominent art-historian Erwin Panofsky claimed that the theology of Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite influenced the architectural style of the abbey of St. Denis, though later scholars have argued against such a simplistic link between philosophy and architectural form.[1] Similarly the assumption by 19th century French authors that Suger was the "designer" of St Denis (and hence the "inventor" of Gothic architecture) has been almost entirely discounted by more recent scholars. Instead he is generally seen as having been a bold and imaginative patron who encouraged the work of an innovative (but now unknown) master mason.[2][3]
chalice once owned by Suger is now in the collections of the National Gallery of Art inWashington, D.C.

Erwin Panofsky argued that Suger was inspired to create a physical representation of the Heavenly Jerusalem, however the extent to which Suger had any aims higher than aesthetic pleasure has been called into doubt by more recent art historians on the basis of Suger's own writings.

中午強破內用,消耗陳菜.....近幾年,有幾次這樣的經驗:買賣/交易中,對方的心算能力有誤,常常令我啼笑皆非。今天某銀行的,她將1140看/讀成1014.....郵局的,比較能幹點。不過,銀行比較前進,錢就是information,可顧客遠比郵局少。郵局是人民級的,前者,因為我是VIP,看法可能有偏差。
走到富邦,領114,竟是給成104,許多職員心算有問題:到郵局提補成130,職員能幹,頗厲害。







談「人文三缺一」的謠言。Emails等之中,請將潘教授的名字拿掉。(這是當初的要求)
不過,可以跟他開玩笑,怎麼會暴增100倍。或許有故事?

我有一想法。
應該設法幫助許多社團,搞自己的blog,譬如說阮桃園老師的"報紙"。

「人文三缺一」等社團,應該有自己的blog。(當然已知Facebook有粉絲頁,似應每2周發信一次。)
