Od terenske skice do skice celine - Mihailo Valtrović i srpska srednjovekovna arhitektura
From field sketches to a sketch of the whole: Mihailo Valtrović and Serbian Medieval architecture
Апстракт
По први пут у домаћој историографији у раду се као целина анализирају два написа Михаила Валтровића, која су у интервалу од десет година
у другој половини 19. столећа објављена с намером да буду језгро текста замишљеног, али никада нeобјављеног корпуса српске средњовековне архитектуре и уметности. Поновним њиховим читањем, као и подробним разматрањем Валтровићевог формативног професионалног периода на студијама у
Карлсруеу (Немачка) установљено је да је реч о збиру ставова заснованих на
веома утемељеној и крајње критичкој методолошкој основици, који су могли
имати изузетног утицаја у будућим проучавањима ове материје.
The case of the reception of the achievements of Mihailo Valtrović (1839-1915), a
pioneer in the field of the study of architecture of medieval Serbia, is a first-class
example of the misleading nature of the culture of memory (in the sense of both
Erinnerungskultur and Vergangenheitsbezug) in the Serbian milieu. Although in his
day he was one of the personages whose systematic labors were geared to nurturing
a higher level of overall academic and public cultural life in the Serbian state, parts
of which were still under Ottoman control, with the shift in the myth paradigm,
i.e. with the rise of the Yugoslav ideology, for a long time and almost completely,
Valtrović was erased from Serbian historiography.
Therefore, the primary goal of this text is to reassess the significance of both the
specific results of Valtrović’s research in the field of study of medieval monuments and the importance of his programmatic texts which appeared in preparation for the publication of the fir...st corpus of medieval art on the territory of
Serbia. A special place in the series of those texts is assigned to his concise book
„Ο ΠΡΟΔΡΟΜΟΣ. Mittheilungen über neue Forschungen auf dem Gebeite serbischer Kirchenbaukunst“, published in Vienna in 1878. This book was the fruit of
Valtrović’s considerable theoretical and practical knowledge of architecture which
he obtained at the Polytechnikum in Karlsruhe where he became acquainted with
the works of Heinrich Hübsch and his pupils, who were his professors, as well as
with other leading German theoreticians of art and architecture, such as Carl von
Lemcke, Karl Schnaase, Friedrich Wilhelm Unger, and Jean-Baptiste-Antoine Lassus and even Jacob Burckhardt himself. Also, Valtrović’s ideas on Serbian medieval
architecture, created out of cultural interaction and contact between the Byzantine
Empire and the medieval West, were grounded on a thorough knowledge of the
first publications which considered Byzantine architecture as a specific entity, of
the studies and surveys published by Wilhelm Salzenberg and Charles Texier -
Robert P. Pullan. It is, therefore, understandable why Valtrović’s work, as the first
true synthesis on the mentioned subject, appears, at this point of reassessment, as
one marked by an erudition typical of pan-European founders of cultural history
and history of art. It is characterized by an exceptionally broad thematic scope
and a capacity for perceiving the totality of artistic creation over a long chronological period, by insightful observation and a methodologically befitting critical
approach. The Serbian milieu, however, never managed to recognize Valtrović’s
sophisticated historical reflex, and gave precedence, in subsequent studies, to a far
too rigid classification of its medieval monuments, as formulated by Gabriel Millet
and based on the long tradition of French historiography of regions, ever inadequate for cultural spaces of a liminal nature such as that of medieval Serbia.
