The II INTERNATIONAL MEETING MAGISTRI CATALONIAE will be held next 27 April 2016 at the
Facultat de Filosofia i Lletres of the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB). This meeting has
been organized by the Research Group (GdR UAB) MAGISTRI CATALONIAE and the Research
Project "Mobility and Artistic Transfer in Medieval Mediterranean (1187-1388): artists, objects
and models-MAGISTRI MEDITERRANEI", in collaboration with Facultat de Filosofia i Lletres
(UAB).
Scientific Coordination:
Manuel Castiñeiras
Verónica Abenza
The aim of the II International Meeting Magistri Cataloniae: "Art and Ceremony in the Latin
West and the Byzantine East", is to explore the relationship between civil and religious
ceremonies and the art and architecture of both Western and Byzantine traditions over the long
centuries since the earliest Christian worship to the Late Middle Ages.
Further to the main purposes of this meeting, papers will address two diverse issues: the
reinforcement of ritual practices through imagery and the way how drastic reformations of
liturgy and civil observances as well as fashion changes often resulted in the modification of
architectural arrangements and ceremonial furnishings.
