Reproductie Portret van Sibylla Kessel - Barthel Bruyn l'Ancien – Boeiende introductie In de fascinerende wereld van de Renaissance-schilderkunst onderscheiden sommige werken zich door hun vermogen om de essentie van hun onderwerpen vast te leggen. De "Portret van Sibylla Kessel" van Barthel Bruyn l'Ancien is een emblematisch voorbeeld van deze artistieke meesterschap. Dit werk, dat de eenvoudige portret overstijgt en een ware venster op de ziel van zijn model wordt, nodigt ons uit om onder te dompelen in een tijdperk waarin kunst en dagelijks leven zich met een zeldzame harmonie vermengden. Via dit portret biedt Bruyn ons niet alleen een getrouwe weergave van Sibylla Kessel, maar ook een inkijk in de waarden en aspiraties van een samenleving in volle verandering. Stijl en uniekheid van het werk De stijl van Barthel Bruyn l'Ancien wordt gekenmerkt door een nauwgezette aandacht voor details en een kleurenpalet dat zowel rijk als subtiel is. In de "Portret van Sibylla Kessel" getuigt elk element, van de plooi van haar jurk tot de lichtreflecties op haar huid, van een verfijnde techniek die de reputatie van de kunstenaar versterkt. Bruyn slaagt erin een intieme sfeer te creëren, waarin de kijker wordt uitgenodigd een stilzwijgend dialoog aan te gaan met de afgebeelde figuur. De houding van Sibylla, licht gedraaid, en haar peinzende blik, roepen een psychologische diepgang op die verder gaat dan de eenvoudige voorstelling. De kunstenaar gebruikt ook symbolische elementen, zoals accessoires of motieven, om de visuele vertelling te verrijken en een extra dimensie aan dit werk toe te voegen. De kunstenaar en zijn invloed Barthel Bruyn l'Ancien, actief in de 16e eeuw, is een van de invloedrijke figuren van de Noord-Europese schilderkunst. Zijn werk past binnen een artistieke context waarin de invloed van de Italiaanse Renaissance begint door te dringen in Noord-Europa. Bruyn wist de technieken van zijn Vlaamse voorgangers te combineren met de stilistische innovaties die door zijn tijdgenoten werden gebracht. Zijn humanistische benadering, gericht op het individu en zijn emoties, heeft de weg geëffend voor vele kunstenaars die volgden. Door portretten zo levendig weer te geven, heeft hij bijgedragen aan het vestigen van het portret als een volwaardig genre, waardoor toekomstige kunstenaars de persoonlijkheid en identiteit van hun onderwerpen dieper konden verkennen.Shipping Notes

Not what I was hoping for
Format: Paperback
I've been interested in the topic of religious appropriation ever since I saw my non-Tibetan neighbor hang Tibetan prayer flags on his front porch. And when I lived in Japan, I saw that non-Christian Japanese appropriated all of the trappings of Western Christian wedding ceremonies. So I had high hopes for this book. But it reads like a very looooong, and also very academic sermon on the evils of capitalism, western hegemony, and other such terms. There is not an ounce of humor in any of this book.

Pop culture: yoga, croases, costumes, tattoos of sacred symbols …is not religious appropiation.
Format: Hardcover
Neither are Christmas trees, a pagan tradition, except to religious fundamentalists. Religion, all religions … which are all patriarchal by origin and definition is to be challenged for hypocrisy … see Madonna for in your face pop blasphemy. This is not scholarship.

An Invitation to Better Dialogue
Format: Paperback
Perry Schmidt-Leukel has tackled one of the most difficult intellectual minefields of all - religious pluralism. I admire his attempt, desire and intentions. This work is based off of a 2015 Gifford lecture in Glasgow.
Religious Pluralism is one of the three possible stances that address the Problem of Religious Diversity. The other two stances are significantly more common and also close sisters - Exclusivism and Inclusivism. Pluralism is the most radical stance but also one most needed in a globally-connected world with seemingly ineradicable conflict and violence.
One can safely ignore, by the way, the stance that all religions are nothing but projections of immature minds (Naturalism); this is a gaslighting position which tries to throw the baby out with the bathwater and does not really address the issue of religious diversity. Religion should be treated with the seriousness it is due and humans are inherently homo religiosus as history and culture attest.
There are several reasons why Pluralism should be considered the superior stance. First, it is the most pragmatic as alluded to in my above statement on conflict. Second, if one understands Truth as something that no human or group of humans can ever have a monopoly on then Pluralism makes more sense than the other two. I should add that we should approach understanding of Truth more as a peregrination than as some fixed or static destination.
Third, much of religious diversity is due to historical, cultural and especially linguistic differences but if we spend time in interreligious dialogue, we can begin to see that the religions are often saying the same things but using different jargon. The jargon should not be confused with Reality or Truth. As humans, we must continually be humbled by our lowly ability to understand reality as it is in itself and our immense limitations of language. Language too often creates division and can also circumscribe our ability to understand. Yet, it is all we really have to communicate with.
Perry spends some time first outlining what a program of sustained interreligious dialogue would look like and some foundational principles. He then addresses some of the biggest elephants in the room - The Son, The Prophet and The Buddha - and how we can approach possible reconciliation, or at least how we can begin to frame the discussion. The other main issue is the problem of a Creator God in Buddhism.
If I were to offer a point of criticism to Perry's approach it is that he does not include in his discussion Philosophical Religions such as Platonism/Neoplatonism and Panentheism. However, I understand that would have really complicated things and he clearly wanted to only focus on the main traditional religions.
Perry then finishes up with a very fresh and thought-provoking discussion on a fractal interpretation of religion. That may be the most profound chapter of the book.
The book is full of insight but should be taken as only an overview (albeit a very good one) and a hopeful beginning to more in-depth analysis and discussion. I look forward to reading more from Schmidt-Leukel and I hope more people can move from their exclusivist and inherently conflict-bound view of the world to a more peaceful and uniting view of the very same one reality we are all experiencing and are all a small part of.

Pluralism as a positive good
Format: Paperback
Anyone iterested in how religions might think of their co-religionists should read this book. It pushes at the boundaries of settled views and points the way to a different future for interreligious relations. One of the best books on the fiedl for some time.
