dc.descriptionThe aim of this paper is to highlight and briefly discuss some of the most problematic terms and concepts that recur in art historiography: for example, the words Byzantine, post-Byzantine, Eastern, Western and Local. These concepts are used in a misleading way not only by American and Western European authors, but also by Eastern and South-Eastern European ones: in fact, the “Balkan” art historiography based itself on the Western-European one, adopting its periodisation, terminology and interpretative framework, which led to a number of methodological problems that researchers are now trying to identify, discuss and, if possible, solve. Rezumat: Scopul acestei lucrări este de a evidenţia şi de a discuta pe scurt unii dintre cei mai problematici termeni şi concepte care se repetă în istoriografia artei: de exemplu, cuvintele bizantin, post-bizantin, oriental, occidental şi local. Aceste concepte sunt folosite în mod înşelător nu numai de către autorii americani şi vest-europeni, ci şi de către cei din Europa de Est şi de Sud-Est: de fapt, istoriografia artei „balcanice” s-a bazat pe cea vest-europeană, adoptând periodizarea acesteia, terminologia şi cadrul interpretativ, care a condus la o serie de probleme metodologice pe care cercetătorii încearcă acum să le identifice, discute şi, dacă este posibil, rezolve. Cuvinte cheie: istoriografia artei, Europa de Sud-Est, argintărie, Bizanţ.en-US
