Alexander Nagel is professor of Renaissance art history at the Institute of Fine Arts at New York University. He is the author of Michelangelo and the Reform of Art and coauthor, with Christopher Wood, of Anachronic Renaissance.
Many studies have shown that images—their presence in the daily lives of the faithful, the means used to control them, and their adaptation to secular uses—were at the heart of the Reformation crisis in northern Europe. But the question as it affects the art of Italy has been raised only in highly specialized studies.
In this book, Alexander Nagel provides the first truly synthetic study of the controversies over religious images that pervaded Italian life both before and parallel to the Reformation north of the Alps. Tracing the intertwined relationship of artistic innovation and archaism, as well as the new pressures placed on the artistic media in the midst of key developments in religious iconography, The Controversy of Renaissance Art offers an important and original history of humanist thought and artistic experimentation from one of our most acclaimed historians of art.

評分書本身極有野心,延續著一些重要文獻提齣的課題。寫繪畫的部分艱難而牽強,雕塑和建築反而有一定的創見。除瞭開頭那段梳理reform circle的關係,Nagel完全沒有justify他將這些案例整閤在一起的原因,這些案例的典型性和論述的適用範圍都值得質疑(比如saint jerome畫中的十字這個非常普遍的範式),而且如一篇書評所言,這本書在方法論上太專注於那些宗教改革者的mind,而忽略瞭這些案例的接受方,研究後者和前者的關係,不論是對應還是衝突,都能更深入探討所謂的controversy。這本書整體的argument仍然可以為後來的學者提供一些有趣的思路。
