Virtual Talk with Justin Willson: Printed Icons in the Early Slavic World
What might iconography gain by migrating to the page, and what might it lose? Explore this question with Museum Curator Justin Willson during his first virtual talk for The Icon Museum and Study Center.
Beginning in the seventeenth century prints with images of beloved cult icons and famous pilgrimage sites spread in the South and East Slavic worlds. Worried about the uptick in cheaply produced iconography, church leaders banned printed icons. Later, their rulings would be edited in pattern books that codified traditional craft knowledge. Printed icons raised new questions about paper as a support for sacred iconography. Was the printed icon simply a utilitarian device for promoting shrine...

In this novel, Tolstoy posed poignant questions about passion, women’s rights, and views on adultery but left most of them tantalizingly unresolved.

    ST George was indeed Orthodox and Greek himself, same as Zoe Sophia Paleologina, and it was highly usual, as icons are still present in the monuments of "Byzantium" which is now in modern day Turkey and beyond this location, all the way in the east including Jerusalem and Palestine, evidence-based in churches built by St Helena herself also Greek and Orthodox. It still is very common to this very day! She, Zoe Sophia Paleologina, was Greek Orthodox, like St George, no matter what the Pope wanted her to be or St George to be and no matter where they, either of them, were geographically located, or their circumstances, THANK CHRIST. The models of Russian Orthodoxy were in the Eastern Roman Empire, as evidenced in the definitive pictures you use of St Peters Basilica in western Rome at the time, which are different, hence the word Basilica which defines that architecture meaning tiled two sided roof and not a dome shape. Although Basilica style churches are also found in Greece and /or the east. Although the word Tsar is derived from the word Ceasar being bit common in Western and Eastern Rome.

    I watched this because I was interested in finding out about Russian pysanky as I did not think that this is part of Russian culture only to find that information about Ukrainian pysanky has been filmed here under the heading of Russian icons! I know that some people will immediately accuse me with bringing politics into art and culture but that is the reality of the actual propagandistic hybrid war as well as an actual war that is being inflicted against Ukraine by Russia. Putin claims that Ukrainians and Russians are one people. Ukrainians say they are not. Russia has been appropriating Ukrainian cultural treasures and traditions foe centuries. This is why I am incensed about the Ukrainian artist here discussing Ukrainian traditions and styles of pysanky. This is NOT the platform for this!. If Russians do not have a strong tradition of pysanky, then lets not have this video under the auspices of Russian Icons. What about the Russian pysanka then?!!!

    1 Maccabees 3:48 And laid open the book of the law, wherein the heathen had sought to paint the likeness of their images. 2 Thessalonians 2:4 Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.

    • @miastupid7911
      @miastupid7911 Год назад

      Rabbi Yerachmiel Shapiro: "the Book of Maccabees is not in the Jewish Bible. Amazingly, it is found in the Christian version of the Old Testament. The Tanach, or Jewish Bible, is an abbreviation of Torah, Nevi’im, and Ketuvim. Torah is the Five Books of Moses, which you would find in the Torah scroll. Nevi’im are the Prophets, including Samuel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel and our favorite, Elijah, who has been drinking our seder wine as long as anyone can remember. Ketuvim are the scriptures, which include the megillot like Esther and Ruth, wisdom books like Proverbs and Ecclesiastes, and many of our prayers in the book called Psalms. All these books were solidified, sanctified and canonized into our Tanach sometime around 400 B.C.E., give or take 100 years, by a group of the first “proto-rabbis” who were called the Anshe Knesset Hagadolah, the Men of the Great Assembly. Consider them the generation that biblical times ended with and post-biblical times began; the generation when prophets ended and rabbis began. You have them to thank for Purim, the Silent Amidah, as well as most of our ancient prayers. If they sealed up the Jewish Bible by 200 B.C.E. or so, there’s no wonder why the Book of Maccabees didn’t make the cut. The story of Chanukah started in 167 B.C.E. when Antiochus put statues of Zeus in the Temple, sacrificed pigs and forbade Bris Milah. The poor Book of Maccabees missed the cut by less than 100 years. The tragedy for the Book of Maccabees gets worse. The book of the Maccabees gets lost. Like all of our ancient books, the Book of Maccabees was originally written in Hebrew but over the years - because of persecution, exiles and book burnings - the Hebrew version was lost, and the text only survived in a translation made into Greek called the Septuagint."

    • @miastupid7911

      The Orthodox Christians have only exalted Christ Almighty and have provided humanity the example of this from the ages unto the ages, Amen. Including praising the Maccabees.
