This book looks beyond national divisions to offer an integrated art history of medieval Scandinavia from the Iron Age to the post-Reformation afterlives of medieval artifacts. Beginning with a thorough introduction that maps the Scandinavian world, the twenty chapters situate the medieval monuments and objects in Scandinavia within a range of artistic traditions. Rigorously researched yet accessibly written by leading specialists in the field, the chapters offer fresh approaches to the study of medieval Scandinavia, such as migration, multiculturalism, gender, and materiality, as well as cultural heritage science. Beautiful illustrations, maps, and suggestions for further reading make this book an ideal companion for researchers, students, and the general reader to delve into the stunning, well-preserved visual histories of medieval Scandinavia.

Previous studies on painted views of Lübeck in the background of Bernt Notke’s Lübeck Dance of Death and Hermen Rode’s Altarpiece of Sts. Nicholas and Viktor interpret the cityscape as a marker for the dominance of Lübeck in the Baltic Sea. In identifying the manipulated monuments and spatial distortions in representations of Lübeck, this article draws upon the social context of patronage and recent studies on the Hanse network to argue that city views of Lübeck attest to the shared urban group and cultural practices between Hanse merchants and towns. The Lübeck city view, displayed locally and extraterritorially, and further proliferated in early printed geography books, catered to the Hanse collective of intertwined consumers and markets.

Calling all Grad Students! New Initiatives Competition!
The ICMA is eager to serve the needs of our expanding community (memberships are at a record high!). To this end, we have created a New Initiatives Working Group (NIWG). The NIWG seeks to progress how the ICMA facilitates professional gatherings, encourages international public engagement with medieval art, and supports scholarly study and outreach strategies in both the real and virtual worlds. We want to hear your ideas about what we can do in the coming months and years to help our members and the field of medieval art history.
Recognizing that graduate students are the future of the field and often have creative approaches to intellectual and professional life, we are holding a competition for the best initiative idea. Dream big!
If you are a graduate student, please submit your suggestion here, where you will find a slot for a 150-word description of your idea. Deadline: September 30, 2020. You must be an ICMA member. Only one entry per person. The NIWG will assess the proposals based on originality, viability, and relevance to the field.
The winner will be notified by November 30, 2020 and will receive 400 USD as an expression of our gratitude. No further involvement is required of the winner beyond the idea submission.
Beyond this competition, we welcome ideas from across the ICMA membership. Please go to “ACTION” on the ICMA website and you will find a link for the New Initiatives Working Group.
Best wishes,
The ICMA New Initiatives Working Group
