Staging the court of Burgundy : proceedings of the conference 'The Splendour of Burgundy' / editors of this volume, Wim Blockmans, Till-Holger Borchert, Nele Gabriëls, Johan Oosterman, Anne van Oosterwijk ; editorial supervision, Anne van Oosterwijk.

"In the course of the fifteenth century, the reputation of the Burgundian court rose to an unprecedented level, catapulted forward by ever growing territorial ambitions and accumulation of wealth. This reached a climax during the reign of Charles the Bold (1433-1477), the living embodiment of the pomp and pageantry of the Burgundian court and a generous patron of the fine arts. Rather than focusing on a single domain, this volume aims to shed light on Burgundian court culture as an organic whole, between the start of the reign of Philip the Good (1419) and the death of Mary of Burgundy (1482). It is intended to provide a forum for new research from the fields of History, History of Art, Literature and Musicology."--Book jacket.
