Subject: Re: Panofsky & St.-Denis
Since self-reference is occasionally allowed, let me point to my
contribution to the sympposium on Suger and Saint-Denis held at Columbia
U. and the Cloisters in 1981 and published in _Abbot Suger and
Saint-Denis_, ed. Paula Lieber Gerson (NY: The Metropolitan Museum of Art,
1986) as "Suger, Theology, and the Pseudo-Dionysian Tradition," pp. 33-40.
I offered a critique of Panofsky's interpretation of dionysian influence
and first proposed some specific possibilities for Victorine influence.
I've continued to work on Hugh's "drawing" mentioned at the end of the
article on Suger and also on the central tympanum at Saint-Denis. I
presented papers reinterpreting the central tympanum of the west front at
meetings of the ASCH and MAA; this effort at reinterpretation will appear
in a volume with a group of essays that offer a variety of new assessments
of Suger and the Abbey. I would agree on the importance of Clark's
work and Kidson's article.
In the vol. mentioned above ed. by Gerson, see Clark's article on the
current (then current, that is) state of knowledge re the church.
Unmentioned so far is the work of Andreas Speer (I don't have the
references at hand). He is at Koln (you supply the umlaut!).
