A little history:
In the summer of 2004, Janet T. Marquardt, an art historian from Eastern
Illinois University, visited the Medieval Academy to gather
information on the work of Kenneth Conant for a book on the
history of the abbey of Cluny since the French Revolution and
the impact of Conant's studies on the development of the discipline
of art history. Awareness of the importance of the ruin and
site was generated by the extensive excavations he undertook
from 1928 to 1950.
We are pleased to present here the early results of that work: "First Projects: Medieval Academy Support of Kenneth J. Conant’s Cluny," not least because it provides us the opportunity to display
some of the photographs of the site and of Conant from our own
files. Her book was later published under the title From
Martyr to Monument: The Abbey of Cluny as Cultural Patrimony
(Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2007) and reviewed in Speculum
84 (2009), 183-184.
