DISPUTATIO

The first volume of essays dedicated to ex-ploring the thought of the controversial late medieval Dominican scholar John of Paris.

The Dominican scholar John of Paris was one of the most controversial members of the Uni-versity of Paris in the later Middle Ages. The author of over twenty works, he is best known today for On Royal and Papal Power. This vol-ume offers the first collection of essays in any language to be dedicated to an exploration of John’s thought. It re-examines his view of the relationship between Church and state, and his conception of political organization. It con-siders the role played by John’s background as a member of the Dominican order in shaping his ideas and breaks new ground in exploring the relationship between his various works, the origins of his thought, its development, and its legacy.

Table of Contents: see www.brepols.net

This collection of research, which brings to-gether contributions from scholars around the world, reflects the range and variety of work that is currently being undertaken in the field of travel and mobility in the European Middle Ages. The essays draw on diverse methodologi-cal approaches, from the archival and literary to the art historical and archaeological. The col-lection focuses not just on key medieval modes of travel and mobility, but also on themes whose relevance continues to resonate in the modern world. Topics touched upon include religious and diplomatic journeys, migration, mobility and governance, gendered mobilities, material culture and mobility, mobility and dis-ability, travel and status, and notions of home and abroad.

La fortune du princeDictionnaire du fisc et des palais entre Loire, Meuse, Escaut et Manche (VIe-Xe siècles)

J. Barbierapprox. 350 p., 156 x 234 mm, 2015, HAMA 18, PB, ISBN 978-2-503-54760-2, approx. € 70 Publication prévue pour juin 2015

HAUT MOYEN ÂGE

Les recherches sur les palais, résidences royales et impériales et biens du fisc forment un axe traditionnel de la médiévistique allemande, éclairant diverses facettes du fonctionnement de l’Empire « germanique » médiéval, à partir des angles d’approche de l’assise matérielle, des

moyens d’exercice et des lieux de représenta-tion du pouvoir impérial. Si de larges secteurs de la Lotharingie, de la Francia orientalis et de l’Italie carolingiennes ont été couverts par ces recherches, la plus grande partie des territoires gaulois du royaume franc reste inexplorée. De manière à combler en partie cette lacune heuristique, le présent dictonnaire présente les palais et biens du fisc répertoriés dans la partie du regnum Francorum qui fut le cœur politique de la Neustrie mérovingienne et de la Francia occidentalis carolingienne. Après avoir exposé la méthode suivie pour inventorier fisc et palais dans l’espace considéré et précisé le sens tech-nique accordé à quelques termes discutés (do-mus, fiscus, palatium, villa), l’ouvrage propose les notices de 583 lieux sièges de palais et/ou de biens du fisc, présents dans 34 diocèses des pro-vinces ecclésiastiques de IIe Belgique, IIe, IIIe et IVe Lyonnaises.

interests in defining ‘medieval rhetoric’, under-standing the history of both literary and bu-reaucratic epistles, explaining the revival of rhe-torical studies in fourteenth-century England, editing texts for teaching the trivium, and ex-cavating performance pedagogies in medieval language classrooms, Carmago has paved the way for scholars in many fields, including edu-cational and institutional history; literature, language, and manuscript studies; and rhetoric in the Middle Ages.

EUROPA SACRA

This book offers a new and innovative ap-proach to the study of magic and witchcraft in Italy between the late Middle Ages and the early modern period.

Unusually, this subject is explored not through inquisitorial trial records or demonologi-cal literature, but through the sermons and confession manuals produced by Observant Franciscan friars, focusing on the so-called ‘pastoral’ approach to folklore, superstition, and witchcraft – an approach that appears to have been notably less harsh than that taken by inquisitors and dedicated demonologists. Cen-tral to this research are the writings of a num-ber of friars active at the friary of St Angelo’s in Milan. By considering the writings of these men in their wider literary and pastoral con-text, and in the light of the broader reforming aims of the Franciscans, this unique study not only offers new insights into the late medieval understanding of superstition and witchcraft, but also makes an important contribution to the history of pastoral care.

MEDIEVAL MONASTIC STUDIES

This international and interdisciplinary col-lection discusses a wide range of aspects relating to the lives of women in religious communities across medieval Europe.

There has long been a tendency among monas-tic historians to ignore or marginalize female participation in monastic life, but recent schol-arship has begun to redress the balance, and the great contributions made by women to the religious life of the Middle Ages are now attracting increasing attention. This inter-disciplinary volume draws together scholars from Spain, Italy, France, the Low Countries, Germany, Transylvania, Scandinavia, and the British Isles, and offers new insights into the history, art history, and material culture, and the religiosity and culture of medieval religious women.The different chapters within this book take a comparative approach to the emergence and spread of female monastic communities across different geographical, political, and economic settings, comparing and contrasting houses that ranged from rich, powerful royal abbeys to small, subsistence priories on the margins of society, and exploring the artistic achieve-ments, the interaction with neighbours and secular and ecclesiastical authorities, and the spiritual lives that were led by their inhabit-ants. The contributors to this volume address issues as diverse as patronage and relationships

À Autun, durant toute la seconde moitié du Moyen Âge - et à l’époque moderne -, deux abbayes de femmes de l’ordre de Saint-Benoît coexistent. Ces deux communautés naissent et se développent dans un double mouvement de complémentarité et de concurrence. L’analyse des origines et du mode de vie des religieuses montre que, issues des couches supérieures de la société autunoise et bourguignonne, voire auvergnate et comtoise, ces femmes retrouvent à l’intérieur de la clôture le confort auquel sont habitués leurs proches. Elles ne sont toutefois pas totalement coupées du monde, contrai-rement aux injonctions de certaines autorités ecclésiastiques et, si elles font appel à de nom-breux officiers, tant temporels que spirituels, elles n’hésitent pas à sortir de l’enceinte mo-nastique ; en fait, les deux communautés sont

work of specialists to create a dialogue about the Latin and vernacular texts that were read, written, and exchanged by medieval nuns.It investigates literacy from palaeographical and textual perspectives, evidence of book ownership and exchange, and other more ex-ternal evidence, both literary and historical. To highlight the benefits of cross-cultural compar-ison, contributions include case studies focused on northern and southern Europe, as well as the extreme north and west of the region. A number of essays illustrate nuns’ active engage-ment with formal education, and with varied textual forms, such as the legal and epistolary, while others convey the different opportunities for studying examples of nuns’ artistic literacy. The various discussions included here build collectively on the first volume to demonstrate the comparative experiences of medieval female religious who were reading, writing, teaching, composing, and illustrating at different times and in diverse geographical areas throughout medieval Europe.

MEDITERRANEAN NEXUS 1100-1700

A key source for the history of Frankish Greece and Constantinople.

This volume gathers together 277 letters of Pope Honorius III (1216-1227) concerning Frankish Greece and Constantinople. These letters constitute an indispensable source for the early history of the territories conquered during and just after the Fourth Crusade of 1204, for which almost no local archival ma-terial survives. The Latin texts of many of the letters are published here for the first time, and almost all the letters have been reedited from the manuscripts, primarily the papal registers in the Vatican Archives. In addition, the volume makes the letters available to non-specialists through exhaustive English summaries of all the letters and complete translations of the most significant ones.

RITUS ET ARTES

This volume draws together contributions from history, archaeology, and the history of religion to offer an in-depth examination of political ritual and its performative and transformative potential across Continental Europe and Scandinavia.

Covering the period between c. 650 and 1350, this work takes a theoretical, textual, and prac-tical approach to the study of political ritual, and explores the connections between, and changing functions of, key rituals such as as-semblies, feasts, and religious confrontations between pagans and Christians.Taking as a central premise the fact that ritu-als were not only successful political instru-ments used to create and maintain order, but were also a hazardous game in which intended strategies could fail, the papers within this vol-ume demonstrate that the outcomes of feasts or court meetings were often highly unpredict-able, and a friendly atmosphere could quickly change into a violent clash. By emphasising the conflict-ridden and unpredictable nature of ritual acts, the articles add crucial insights into the meanings, (ab)uses, and interpretations of performances in the Middle Ages. In doing so, they demonstrate that rituals, far from being mere representations of power, also constituted

an important mechanism through which the political and religious order could be chal-lenged and transformed.

This volume offers the general reader a synthe-sis of academic life in Paris during the first cen-turies of its existence. These early years were a period of excitement, discovery and intellectual freedom. Perhaps never again would a commu-nity of scholars engage in teaching and debate in such an astonishingly new and fresh world, with people, texts and ideas multiplying rapidly and surrounded by an equally rapidly develop-ing city. From the perspective of the twenty-first century, it seems an enviable period, a time when optimism and eager research still went hand in hand with the idea that the whole of existence might be encompassed by the human mind.

TEXTES ET ÉTUDES DU MOYEN ÂGE

The articles and editions gathered in this vol-ume explore the extremely rich, though still understudied, philosophical and theologi-cal œuvre of the Catalan Carmelite Guido Terreni (c. 1270-1342).

The Catalan philosopher and theologian Guido Terreni is one of the most outstanding figures in the history of the Carmelite order. The articles gathered in the first part of this volume explore the extremely rich, though still understudied, œuvre of the Bishop of Majorca and Elne which comprises philosophico-theo-logical, polemical, biblical and juridical texts. Since many of these works remain unedited, the second part of the volume contains selected text editions from Guido’s commentaries on Aristotle’s Physics and the Decretum Gratiani, as well as from his influential Quodlibetal Ques-tions. Altogether, the sixteen contributions in this volume offer a comprehensive and up-to-date appraisal of Guido’s major contribution to the intellectual and political debates of his age and beyond.

UTRECHT STUDIES IN MEDIEVAL LITERACY

Through case studies of a broad variety of medieval and early modern sources, this vol-ume discusses whether the roots of modern notions of individuality can be found in pre-modern Europe.

‘Individuality’ is one of the central categories of modern society. Can the roots of modern individuality be found in pre-modern times? Or is our way of thinking about ourselves a very recent phenomenon? This book takes a theo-retical approach to the problem, derived from Niklas Luhmann’s system theory, in which different forms of individuality are linked to different structures of society in modern and pre-modern times.The papers in this volume approach this prob-lem by discussing a broad variety of medieval and early modern sources, including charters and seals, letters, and naming-practices in a late medieval town. Self-representation is also considered, in ‘housebooks’ and drawings. Tex-tual studies include autobiography in German Humanism, and concepts of individuality and gender in late medieval literary texts.

Des com-paraisons avec un moderne Dictionnaire des locutions (et des expressions) peuvent toujours être faites afin de vérifier la survie de l’ancien patrimoine ou plutôt les racines du patrimoine actuel. Avec la parution du D.L.M.F., les spé-cialistes ont été obligés de mettre sur la table la question de la variance vs le figé. Or, s’il est vrai qu’une locution est dans l’acception courante un « groupe de mots qui équivaut à un seul mot », il n’en reste pas moins que le concept de figé n’existe pas dans l’esprit et dans la pra-tique de nos auteurs. Chaque groupe de mots peut être rédigé selon des choix, qui peuvent dépendre des conventions de la métrique (scan-sion et rime) ou tout simplement du choix personnel de l’auteur, qui est libre de toute contrainte académique.

translatio studii et imperii, it proposes the iden-tification of three distinct conceptions of the Orient in medieval sources: Biblical, Classical, and Contemporary. Welsh textual material from the twelfth and thirteenth centuries is used as a case-study to develop and illustrate this theory. This study brings historical sources to bear on previously unexplained literary phenomena and it examines the evolution of texts and ideas in the process of transmission and translation. The sources analysed here include vernacular and Latin texts produced in Wales, as well as material that has been translated into Welsh such as Ima-go mundi and legends about Charlemagne. It thus combines an important and much-needed account of the development of Welsh attitudes to the East with a unique analysis of Oriental ref-erences across an extensive literary corpus.


Des lectures singulières sur Alexandre le Grand en Europe (XIIe-XVIe siècle): maté-rialité des manuscrits et des premiers impri-més, illustrations, paratexte, gloses et mise en recueils.

En marge de la problématique générale de la réécriture, traduction et adaptation, cet ou-vrage rassemble des études de manuscrits ou de premiers imprimés relatifs à Alexandre le Grand qui appartiennent aux différentes lit-tératures européennes du XIIe au XVIe siècle et qui portent les témoignages d’une récep-tion médiévale ou renaissante spécifique dans

la tradition manuscrite ou imprimée d’une œuvre. Il s’est agi d’analyser les lectures singu-lières d’une œuvre sur Alexandre que révèlent les réinterprétations de certains épisodes par un copiste-remanieur inventif, le commen-taire qu’assurent les gloses ou toute forme de paratexte, le regard de l’illustrateur et les liens entre texte et images, ou bien encore la concep-tion de manuscrits recueils.

TEXTES VERNACULAIRES DU MOYEN ÂGE

Early-fifteenth-century Paris described by Guillebert De Mets from Geraardsbergen.

In 1434 Guillebert from Geraardsbergen completed his description of Paris. It is a remarkable record of what was considered noteworthy at the time both historically and topographically. There are picturesque details which are often cited in annotations to the poetry of Francois Villon, notably concern-ing the Cemetery of the Innocents, the de-piction of the Virgin and of heaven and hell in the Celestines and the reference to the fa-mous beauties of the city. The author was an

innkeeper and town councillor in his native Geraardsbergen, but also a profssional scribe involved in the book trade who was a ‘libraire’ for Philip the Good, Duke of Burgundy. The unique manuscript that contains this text also features an important illlustration by an otherwise unknown artist. A whole group of fifteenth-century Flemish manuscript illumi-nators is now associated with this master, who was given in 1915 the title ‘Master of Guille-bert De Mets’.

STUDIES AND TEXTS

North American customers are advised to order directly through University of Toronto Press.

In this volume, the most recognized specialists in the field and junior scholars have collectively produced a contribution that both deepens and ameliorates the initial attempts to rethink the crucial relationships between religion and language. While highlighting, as others studies have, the diversities of geolinguistics, of literary genres, and of registers that the ecclesiastical word could assume in medieval and early mod-ern Italy, the essays in this volume additionally shed light on those constants and variables that, considered together, provide a systematic re-visioning of pre-Tridentine religious language.

Étude des systèmes complexes de parenté dans les romans arthuriens et de la manière dont elles influencent la construction narrative des personnages.Le cycle Lancelot-Graal et le Perlesvaus, écrits dans la première moitié du XIIIe siècle, sont construits autour d’un temps horizontal, orga-nisé autour de la figure du roi Arthur, ce qui rend toute idée de succession problématique. Mais dans le même temps, la société a subi de pro-fonds bouleversements : qu’il s’agisse de l’insti-tution du mariage, des règles de transmission de l’héritage ou encore de l’ancrage du lignage dans des lieux géographiques très précis, les relations entre les individus se sont lentement modifiées.

UTRECHT STUDIES IN MEDIEVAL LITERACY

An updated status quaestionis on medieval epistolography, including debates on dis-puted texts and information about new dis-coveries.

Modern scholarship on medieval letters has often focused on the divide between fictional-ity and historicity. Attempts have been made to distinguish between ‘real’ letters and those that were used as stylistic models, and discussion has focused on how to make use of these texts as historical sources. In this volume, which draws on the proceedings of the ‘Medieval Letters between Fiction and Document’ conference held in Siena in 2013, scholars including Peter Dronke, Ronald Witt, Joan Ferrante, and Syl-vie Lefèvre analyse the historical value of me-dieval letters in both Latin and other European languages and explore different disciplinary approaches to the field. Comprising contribu-tions on methodology, Latin literature up to the fifteenth century, Byzantine and Romance literature, and courtly letters, this unique book also documents the debate on unedited texts – including women’s love letters – and on celebrated cases of disputed authorship such as the Epistolae duorum amantium and Dante’s Epistola to Cangrande. It thus offers a significant re-evaluation of the huge and partly

unpublished heritage of medieval letters across Europe, and provides important insights into the use of these unique sources in social, liter-ary, and legal history.

This first part of Vol-ume 1 covers one hundred and twenty-seven Italian manuscripts: biblical and liturgical co-dices (notably a lavishly illuminated Book of Hours made for Lorenzo de’ Medici), patristic texts, and the exceptional collection of Latin classical authors collected by Thomas Coke (1697–1759). New attributions to illumina-tors and significant discoveries in textual histo-ry and provenance will stimulate new research; every manuscript catalogued is generously illus-trated, and a full bibliography and indices are

also included. A substantial historical intro-duction, drawing on unpublished archives at Holkham, reconstructs in detail for the first time the formation and development of the Holkham manuscript library in the eigh-teenth and nineteenth centuries.

STUDIES AND TEXTS


“Containing copies of the Regularis Con-cordia, the Rule of St Benedict, homilies, prognostics and much else besides, Cotton Tiberius A.III is a vital witness to the eccle-siastical culture of late Anglo-Saxon Eng-land. Tracey-Anne Cooper’s study subjects this complicated book to the wide-ranging forensic analysis that it requires, teasing out the significance of its many items individu-ally and collectively. The author thereby sheds a searching light of the belief and culture of three successive generations of churchmen, re-evaluating the nature and duration, not to mention the apparent contradictions, of the Anglo-Saxon Benedictine reform movement and scrutinizing the evolving priorities of its leading figures.”

LA LIBRAIRIE DES DUCS DE BOURGOGNE

À l’aube du XVème siècle, Philippe le Hardi, premier duc de Bourgogne, jette les premières bases de ce qui allait devenir une bibliothèque

d’exception. Transmise à ses successeurs, elle fera la fierté de Jean sans Peur, Philippe le Bon puis Charles le Téméraire. Sur le millier de volumes recensés à la mort du Téméraire, environ 300 codices sont aujourd’hui conservés à la Sec-tion des Manuscrits de la Bibliothèque royale de Belgique. La série consacrée à la « Librairie

des ducs de Bourgogne » regroupera, selon un classement typologique des textes, l’ensemble de ces manuscrits. Le présent volume (LDB-V) reprend la suite des textes historiques qui ont fait l’objet d’un premier volume en 2009 (LDB-IV): y figurent toujours des œuvres embléma-tiques de la Librairie de Bourgogne telles que le Recoeil des Histoires de Troyes de Raoul Lefèvre, l’Histoire de la Toison d’or de Guillaume Fillastre ou la Fleur des Histoires Jean Mansel mais aussi des textes moins connus à l’influence tout aussi importante: le Liber secretorum fidelium crucis de Marino Sanudo ou la Mappemonde spirituelle de Jean Germain. Chaque manuscrit est étudié, suivant une grille d’analyse, du point de vue co-dicologique, historique, textuel et artistique. Ces descriptions, qui complètent et réactualisent les catalogues de Van den Gheyn et Gaspar et Lyna, sont accompagnées de commentaires (status quaestionis, nouvelles perspectives de recherche, etc.) et d’une mise à jour de la bibliographie.

STUDIES IN THE EARLY MIDDLE AGES

Twenty experts in law, linguistics, litera-ture, history, and religion analyze one of the most important books produced in me-dieval England.

Textus Roffensis, a Rochester Cathedral book of the early twelfth century, holds some of the most significant texts issued in early medieval England, ranging from the oldest English-language law code of King Æthelberht of Kent (c. 600) to a copy of Henry I’s Coronation Charter (5 August 1100). Textus Roffensis also holds abundant charters (including some forg-eries), narratives concerning disputed prop-erty, and one of the earliest library catalogues compiled in medieval England. While it is a familiar and important manuscript to scholars, however, up to now it has never been the object of a monograph or collection of wide-ranging studies. The seventeen contributors to this book have subjected Textus Roffensis to close scrutiny and offer new conclusions on the pro-cess of its creation, its purposes and uses, and the interpretation of its laws and property re-cords, as well as exploring significant events in which Rochester played a role and some of the

more important people associated with the See. The work of the contributors takes readers into the mind of the scribes and compiler (or patron) behind the Textus Roffensis, as well as into the origins and meaning of the texts that the monks of early twelfth-century Rochester chose to pre-serve. The essays contained here not only set the study of the manuscript on a firm foundation, but also point to new directions for future work.

EARLY EUROPEAN RESEARCH

This collection draws upon recent scholar-ship on oral and print cultures and their role in the transformation of the public sphere to present an interdisciplinary analysis of the ways gossip and rumour defined reputation and public opinion in early modern Europe.

The essays in this collection demonstrate how Fama and her sisters, gossip and rumour, were central in private and public discourses about state and society in early modern Europe. In an era when oral, scribal, visual, and print cul-tures competed to satisfy a growing public de-mand for ‘news’, gossip and rumour informed people about the actions and morals of their social and political elites, and they commonly enabled people who did not usually participate in politics to engage with the public discourses about religion, governance, and society which shaped their lives and the state. So while gos-sip and rumour might be scurrilous and en-tertaining, they nonetheless performed a vital political function, regulating communal and political behaviour in the upper social ech-elons, as well as in neighbourhoods lower down the social scale where they might constitute a form of popular justice. This timely interdisci-plinary study explores how gossip and rumour

functioned dualistically at all levels of the early modern state and society either to advance or to defame reputations, and thereby shape pub-lic opinion.

An exploration of the contribution of dia-lectic (the art of arguing and reasoning), in its scholastic and humanist guises, to the debates surrounding novelties in cosmology and cosmography in early modern France.

Contemporary historiography holds that it was the practices and technologies underpinning both the Great Voyages and the ‘New Science’, as opposed to traditional book learning, which led to the major epistemic breakthroughs of early modernity. This study, however, returns to the importance of book-learning by exploring how cosmological and cosmographical ‘novelties’ were explained and presented in Renaissance texts, and discloses the ways in which the reports presented by sailors, astronomers, and scientists became not only credible but also deeply dis-turbing for scholars, preachers, and educated laymen in sixteenth- and seventeenth-century France. It is argued here that dialectic – the art of argumentation and reasoning – played a crucial role in articulating and popularizing new learn-ing about the cosmos by providing the argumen-tative toolkit needed to define, discard, and au-thorize novelties. The debates that shaped them were not confined to learned circles; rather, they reached a wider audience via early modern ver-nacular genres such as the essay. Focusing both on major figures such as Montaigne or Descartes, as well as on now-forgotten popularizers such as Belleforest and

Binet, this book describes the deployment of dialectic as a means of articulating and dissemi-nating, but also of containing, the disturbance generated by cosmological and cosmographical novelties in Renaissance France, whether for the lay reader in Court or Parliament, for the parishioner at Church, or for the student in the classroom.


concurrent lines of influence that shaped post-Classical understandings of emotions through overlapping philosophical, rhetorical, and theo-logical discourses. They show the effects of de-velopments in genre and literary, aesthetic, and cognitive theories on depictions of psychological and embodied emotion in literature. They map the deeply embedded emotive content inherent in rituals, formal documents, daily conversation, communal practice, and cultural memory. The contributors focus on the mediation and inter-pretation of pre-modern emotional experience in cultural structures and institutions – customs, laws, courts, religious foundations – as well as in philosophical, literary, and aesthetic traditions.

This volume is the first interdisciplinary study of the Seven Sorrows confraternity of Brussels.

Devotion to the Virgin of Seven Sorrows flour-ished in the Low Countries in the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries under the auspices of the court of Philip the Fair. Quickly be-coming a widespread phenomenon, the Seven Sorrows devotion generated dramatic plays, artistic works, music, and numerous miracles. Taking the confraternity of Brussels as a focal point, this volume examines the Seven Sorrows devotion in its urban context. The essays of this collection explore the artistic, musical, and dra-matic products of the Seven Sorrows devotion as created in and by the civic networks and ar-tistic channels of Brussels. The structure of the confraternity and its historical importance for the city are also demonstrated.

Robert Dittmann of Charles University in Prague, Czech Republic, specializes in the development of Czech. His main interests are biblical translation in the Czech lands, Old Czech glosses in medieval Hebrew manu-scripts and Czech onomastics. Jiří Just of Institute of Philosophy of the Acad-emy of Sciences of the Czech Republic in Prag, specializes in the Bohemian and Moravian Reformation in the 16th and the 17th Century and the literary work of the Unitas Fratrum.

Bohemia and Moravia have an outstanding place in the history of biblical translation. Fol-lowing the Slavonic tradition of Great Moravia and the interest in biblical translation ignited anew by the Church reform in the 15th century, there appeared in the 16th century a number of new translations of the bible or its parts into Czech. Most of them were printed and sur-vived, others are known to us only due to re-ports. The present volume traces transmission of the biblical text in the 16th century by Czech translators employing humanistic methods. All the new translations analyzed here turn away, consciously and to a various degree, from the preceding redactions of the Czech biblical text based on the Latin Vulgate. The volume brings translatological analysis of the works examined, characterization of their Czech language, new findings about the sources for the translation and bio-bibliographical information about Table of Contents: see www.brepols.net

“The Parlement of Paris in the reign of Francis I was placed in a particularly delicate position. On the one hand, it was confronted with an energetic and expansionist monarch, whose ambitions abroad led him to demand compromises in long-held Gallican principles

in the court and (in due course) in the prosecution of heresy too. On the other, it was clear-sighted in its desire to seek God’s protec-tion for the king and the realm, conscious of the historic role and destiny this represented, but aware that there were those in the king’s family and service who sought his favour and protection in order to advance evangelical and eventually protestant causes. This edi-tion magnificently documents those tensions.

STUDIES AND TEXTS


Review

It is unique in providing scholars with exten-sive, year-by-year documentary evidence for the court’s ways of proceeding in matters of heresy. It provides details on commissioners, plaidoyers, renvoi, torture, execution, etc. It is invaluable as a study in how the court recorded its decisions. It corrects the work of previous scholars in the area in a number of domains and, even in areas where we thought we knew the documentation quite well (such as. the Etienne Dolet affair), it provides new surprises. There is significant new material on the control of bookselling, rich documentation on the concerns about what was sung and placarded in the streets, and additional information about the role of inquisitors. The work complements James Farge’s previous studies, which have won a highly respected place in the literature, and these two volumes will take their place as the authoritative edition of the activities of the court in this period.”

STUDIA TRADITIONIS THEOLOGIAE

Born into West Saxon royal kin, Aldhelm (c. 639-709) spoke directly to the concerns and needs of his aristocratic society, trans-forming the patristic norms of Christian behavior into the heroic concepts intui-tively meaningful to his Germanic society.

This book is a study of Aldhelm and his comple-mentary roles as a spiritual theorist in a nascent Christian society and as an ecclesiastical ad-ministrator. In both, he is shown as innovative and purposeful. His own theology responded to an experiential knowledge of the realities of power in his society. Born into West Saxon royal kin, he spoke directly to the concerns and needs of his aristocratic society, transforming the patristic norms of Christian behavior into the heroic concepts intuitively meaningful to his Germanic society. For Aldhelm,the dedi-cated virgin was as heroic as a warrior serving his lord.

STUDIA TRADITIONIS THEOLOGIAE

The key to the most fundamental exegesis of the Scriptures in the Middle Ages.

Dom Donation De Bruyne’s work of a century ago has been all but unobtainable since it was first published quasi-anonymously just before the outbreak of the Great War. Originally con-ceived as an instrumentum laboris to the great Benedictine project to produce a critical edition of the Vulgate, it now has a new life as a unique collection of the division systems that were used with the biblical books before the twelfth cen-tury. These constitute a primary interpretation of the text, anterior to, and more pervasive in in-fluence than any work of formal biblical exegesis.This collection makes available the raw material for a new chapter in the study of the Latin bible and the study of its reception in the later patristic and medieval periods. Moreover, it may usher in a new chapter in the history of biblical exegesis.

VICTORINE TEXTS IN TRANSLATION

Thanks to the pathbreaking work of Beryl Smal-ley, more than a half century ago, today we rec-ognize the central place of the so-called School of Saint Victor in the history of biblical exege-sis. By the mid-twelfth century, the abbey had gained a reputation for solid Christian teaching, with an emphasis on biblical studies and history. This volume contains commentaries and exam-ples of biblical exegesis by Hugh and Andrew of Saint Victor, Sermons by Richard of Saint Victor and Maurice of Sully, the Quaestiones in divina pagina by Robert of Melun, Richard’s invective against judaizers, De Emmanuele, and a poetic paraphrase of Ruth by Leonius of Saint Victor, encompassing the broad range of bibli-cal exegetical practice at the abbey.

La théologie byzantinePremier ouvrage de ce genre au niveau inter-national, La théologie byzantine et sa tradition a été mise en chantier par Carmelo Giuseppe Conticello dans le cadre des activités du « Laboratoire d’études sur les monothéismes » (CNRS, Paris). Sa réalisation est le résultat de la collaboration d’un grand nombre de spé-cialistes - patristiciens, byzantinistes, orienta-listes, théologiens, philologues, his toriens, bi-blistes, canonistes - de quatorze pays. L’ambition première de l’ouvrage est d’aborder le domaine théologique byzantin à travers ses forces vives, les théologiens, perçus comme des sujets por-teurs d’une expérience spirituelle riche et vi-vante, dont la production compte parfois parmi les chefs-d’œuvre de la littérature théologique universelle. Sa seconde ambition est de considé-rer ce domaine dans toute son extension, aussi bien chronologique que géographique, la cou-pure historique de 1453, date de la chute de Constantinople, ne marquant pas la fin de cet univers de pensée qui continue de vivre dans l’Orthodoxie moderne et contemporaine. À travers une série d’articles monographiques substantiels, allant de 60 à 250 pages et des appendices spécialisés, La théologie byzantine et sa tradition se propose d’offrir au monde universitaire et au public cultivé une première mise au point d’envergure et un instrument de travail fondamental. C’est la raison pour laquelle un soin particulier a été accordé à la prosopographie, à la constitution d’un répertoire

complet des œuvres de chaque théologien considéré - cette section constitue l’esquisse d’une Clavis Auctorum Byzantinorum, sur le modèle de la célèbre Clavis Patrum Graeco-rum de M. Geerard -, au repérage des manus-crits pour les œuvres inédites, à l’exhaustivité et à la présentation critique des bibliographies en langues occidentales et orientales, à l’éla-boration d’index détaillés. Pour illustrer l’ex-posé sur la doctrine des auteurs traités, partie centrale de chaque contribution, l’ouvrage rassemble également un grand nombre de textes, traduits pour la première fois ou édités critiquement.

1563 and 1567 by the Flemish artist Giambo-logna and the Sicilian architect Tomaso Laure-ti, that considers all of the complex aspects of its commission, planning, execution, iconog-raphy, and urban impact. Working with an extraordinary body of documentary and visual materials, Richard Tuttle (1941-2009)—one of the world’s foremost authorities on Renais-sance Bologna—reveals how the fountain was created collaboratively by papal administrators and artists, how it depended on contemporary hydraulic technology, communicated political messages, and became an instrument of urban renewal. The book’s broad appeal, scholarly rigor, and eloquent writing promise to make it an indispensable source on Italian sixteenth-century sculpture, architecture and urban plan-ning, as well as a definitive text on this remark-able Renaissance fountain.

SCIENTIA ARTIS

Le Baroque s’offre aujourd’hui comme un miroir fascinant pour nos sociétés post-modernes que d’aucuns qualifient de néo-baroques. En effet, ne sommes-nous pas tentés de nous reconnaître dans cet art de la démesure, aux effets spéciaux tout droit sortis d’un Deus ex machina ? Or l’une des expressions les plus éloquentes de ce Baroque vitaliste et

total est l’art du retable. Art spectaculaire s’il en est, il s’offre comme la toile de fond de la liturgie ostentatoire de la Contre-Réforme, et plus encore comme un « acteur » essentiel dans l’appréhension du divin. Sorte de trait d’union visuel entre l’ici-bas et l’au-delà, mais aussi, dans une relation non plus verticale mais horizontale, entre les croyants et l’Église catholique, il semble être le point focal de la culture visuelle de la Contre-Réforme. Si le retable baroque est bien un phénomène européen qui puise ses racines dans la culture artistique italienne, il prend néanmoins des formes spécifiques dans chaque espace de la catholicité du XVIIe siècle. Or l’un des espaces où il a connu un épanouissement tout particulier est celui des anciens Pays-Bas. Ce volume cherche à resituer ces « machines spirituelles » dans le tissu socio-culturel et religieux de l’époque, tout en procédant à une étude généalogique et typologique de leurs matériaux, formes, thèmes et fonctions. Une telle approche du contexte culturel et religieux, des modèles et des types se trouve complétée

par l’analyse de la dynamique spirituelle et esthétique que suscitent ces retables. À ces études critiques s’adjoint en outre un inventaire des retables baroques des anciens Pays-Bas, qui se prolonge en ligne sur la banque de données BALaT de l’IRPA.

MUSEUMS AT THE CROSSROADS

This interdisciplinary volume is a unique combination of the history of early modern emotions and art history, bringing together case studies which provide us with new in-sights on early modern artists and their emo-tional lives, often based on archival and liter-ary sources.

The history of emotions has gained more and more scholarly attention, evidenced by an ‘af-fective turn’ or ‘emotional turn’ in historical

research. Many publications have appeared, and internationally oriented research centres and conferences have been set up and organized.This volume brings the importance of a clear understanding of historical feelings into the research area of art historians. Even though the depiction of emotions is an important discipline in its own right, in this volume the concept of the artist and his or her own personal feelings, often in connection with the creation of a work of art, is prioritised.

ME FECIT

The painter Joos van Cleve (c. 1485/90-1540/41) founded an important and influen-tial workshop in Antwerp at the beginning of the sixteenth century. More than 300 works are currently attributed to Van Cleve and his workshop. Van Cleve and his assistants were responsible for lifelike portraits, altarpieces of varying sizes, and the mass production of

popular devotional panels with subjects like The Holy Family, The Madonna of the Cherries and The Infants Christ and St John the Baptist

Embracing. How, then, is it possible that these paintings are of such a high quality and crafts-manship? This book contains the answer. The international nature of Antwerp’s economy, and of its art trade in particular, made Joos van Cleve and his paintings known far beyond the confines of the Low Countries. Although the information about his life and the composition of his œuvre was unclear for a long time, Joos van Cleve can now once again be numbered among the great successful painters of the early sixteenth century.

STUDIES IN BAROQUE ART

The curious art of Jan van Kessel provides an intriguing lens through which to explore the intersections between craft practices, collecting, and the pursuit of natural knowl-edge in early modern Antwerp.

The Antwerp artist Jan van Kessel the Elder (1626-1679) was esteemed throughout Eu-rope for producing finely-wrought, miniature paintings on copper that depict a wide range of flora and fauna, exotic landscapes, and objects of natural artistry (e.g. shells, coral, precious stones). This study uses Van Kessel’s art as a distinctive lens through which to examine the relation-ship between craft, curiosity, and the pursuit of natural knowledge in the early modern period. Each chapter situates Van Kessel within a par-ticular context where art and natural history in-tersected in late seventeenth-century Antwerp. Taken together, these investigations reveal how his production responded to a unique con-vergence of circumstances in that city which included the growth of a popular, commercial strand of natural history, a thriving culture of art collecting and connoisseurship focused on local artists, and a burgeoning luxury industry.

Nadia Baadj is a Post-Doctoral Researcher at the Institute for Art History at the Univer-sität Bern. Her research focuses on intersec-tions between art and science as well as artists’ materials and techniques in the early modern period, with a particular focus on Northern Europe.

a painter had to be able to feel emotions in or-der to depict them correctly, the articles brought together in this volume focus primarily on the traces of artist’s emotions (“feelings”) that can be derived from archival documents, secondary sources, and paintings (“facts”). Each author has tried in his or her own way to elucidate both the written and visual expressions of an artist’s (per-sonal) emotions.

Hannelore Magnus is a full-time PhD fellow of the Research Foundation-Flanders (FWO) at the same Research Unit of KU Leuven. She prepares a doctoral dissertation on fashion, dance and courting in the œuvre of the Antwerp genre painter Hiëronymus Janssens (1624-1693). Katlijne Van der Stighelen is full professor Early Modern Art History at KU Leuven. Her main research and publication topics are 17th-century Flemish art in general and por-traiture in particular as well as woman artists.

Micha Leeflang (1975) studied technical art history at the University of Groningen. From 2005 to 2007 she was on the staff of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam as curatorial re-searcher. Since 2007 she has been a curator at Museum Catharijneconvent in Utrecht.

dal Pozzo was a member. The manuscripts were acquired by Cassiano in 1633 following Cesi’s death, together with three companion manuscripts dedicated to drawings of fungi (published in Part B.II of the catalogue rai-sonné). Many of the drawings depict plants such as ferns, bryophytes, mosses and liver-worts, which had been considered ‘imperfect’ because (like fungi) they seemed to lack repro-ductive structures – flowers, fruit or seeds. In 1624 Galileo gave his fellow academicians a microscope, and with this novel ‘aid to the eyes’, wrote another Linceo, ‘our Prince Cesi saw to it that many plants hitherto believed by bota-nists to be lacking in seeds were drawn on pa-per’. Indeed, these drawings constitute some of the earliest microscopic studies in the history of science. One manuscript is dedicated to il-lustrations of seaweeds and is the first known sustained study of this subject, while another is a miscellaneous volume that includes 30 prints as well as drawings of fungi and lichen, insects, a bat, a hermaphrodite rat and other curiosities. Introductory essays discuss the importance of these drawings to Cesi’s researches and how

the manuscripts made their way into the collec-tions of the Institut de France, their botanical content and place in the history of botanical il-lustration. All drawings are reproduced as full-plate colour illustrations and accompanied by botanical identifications and commentary.


This three-volume catalogue presents five man-uscripts containing some 780 mainly botani-cal drawings, now in the library of the Institut de France. They were produced for Federico Cesi in the 1620s to further the researches of the scientific society he had founded in Rome, the Accademia dei Lincei, of which Cassiano

Allo stesso modo la collana Pollen, a partire da materiali diversi e da voci differenti dialoganti e capaci di confrontarsi recip-rocamente vuole cercare nuove strade di lettura della storia dell’arte.

STUDIES IN THE VISUAL CULTURES OF THE MIDDLE AGES

This book opens to the reader the world of early medieval Armenia: its sacred land-scapes, striking churches, and rich literary and religious traditions.

Examination of three sculpted and inscribed monuments, produced during the “global” wars of the seventh century, demonstrates the close engagement of Armenia with Byzantine impe-rial interests and with contemporary events in the Holy Land. The dramatic context of the military frontier, and the apocalyptic expecta-tions of its contemporaries, shaped a vibrant visual culture with ties to both the Byzantine and Sasanian worlds. The seventh-century monuments of Armenia are important not just as an extraordinary moment of local cul-tural production; they fill a crucial gap in our knowledge about the medieval traditions of the Christian East at a time from which little survives from Constantinople and the imperial

heartland. East of Rome, North of Jerusalem is the first English-language book devoted to the subject.

Table des matières

La technique des peintres vénitiens a longtemps été une sorte de mythe pour les peintres, qui ont cherché, notamment au XVIIIe et au XIXe

siècle, à en reconstituer les secrets. Elle a donc été l’objet d’un grand nombre de commentaires et d’hypothèses, même si les sources imprimées contemporaines de Titien, de Giorgione, ou de Véronèse sont relativement peu nombreuses. Nos connaissances sur le sujet ont cependant été profondément renouvelées, ces dernières années, par le développement des recherches scientifiques, qui ont apporté des informations sur l’usage du dessin par les artistes de la Domi-nante (grâce à l’utilisation de la réflectographie infrarouge), sur les liants qu’ils utilisaient (et, donc, sur le développement de la technique à l’huile auquel ils apportèrent une contribution déterminante). On a aussi beaucoup appris sur les pigments présents dans les œuvres de cette période. Les documents d’archives se révèlent également précieux, dans la mesure où ils nous font découvrir le commerce des couleurs et les différents matériaux dont les peintres pouvaient disposer (les marchands de couleurs vénitiens étaient probablement les plus actifs en Europe au XVIe siècle et on venait s’approvisionner auprès d’eux de l’Europe entière). On cherche donc à croiser ces différentes sources d’infor-mation pour mieux comprendre les principaux aspects matériels du travail des peintres de cette époque.

As a result, the boundaries between two object domains of major interest to medieval studies look more porous than previous scholarship has recognized. The book’s argument is un-derpinned by judicious use of sources and an impressive command of history. Berenbeim builds on the work of Michael Clanchy and Brigitte Bedos-Rezak in evaluating medieval documents as ‘portentous objects’ with a pow-er that transcended their written, face value, but her understanding of the role of aesthetics in diplomatic culture is distinctive.

ÉGLISE, LITURGIE ET SOCIÉTÉ DANS L’EUROPE MODERNE

Les histoires sacrées en latin de Marc-Antoine Charpentier (que l’on peut définir comme un genre religieux musical et dramatique où des personnages sont caractérisés) forment la part la plus originale de toute son œuvre et consti-tuent un cas unique dans la musique française du XVIIe siècle.

MUSIC HISTORY

Réunissant des études de chercheurs de plu-sieurs nationalités, cet ouvrage tente d’apporter de nouveaux éclairages sur l’environnement sonore qu’a pu connaître Charpentier en Italie, ses présumés modèles français et romains, l’in-fluence du mécénat sur les sujets qu’il a traités

(la Nativité, la Bienheureuse Marie, les grandes figures de saints telles que celle de Cécile...), la question du genre et de la terminologie de ses histoires sacrées, les textes néo-latins mis en musique, la spécificité de son langage musical, enfin la lecture de ses manuscrits dans une pers-pective d’interprétation.

ÉPITOME MUSICAL

Dans l’histoire européenne de la musique, de nombreux musiciens illustres de la Renaissance sont originaires du Hainaut, formés ou actifs en ces lieux. Gilles Binchois, Jean de Ockeghem, Jean Regis, Josquin des Prez, Nicolas Gom-bert ou encore Roland de Lassus entre autres,

sont reconnus par les musicologues comme les orfèvres d’un art polyphonique d’exception que les cours étrangères envient, à tel point

qu’elles n’hésitent pas à envoyer de nombreux émissaires afin d’y recruter par dizaines les plus doués des musiciens. Mais de la richesse musi-cale du Hainaut témoignent aussi des traditions populaires déjà fortement enracinées aux XVe

et XVIe siècles, qui ont été préservées jusqu’à ce jour, étant parfois élevées au rang de patrimoine mondial par l’Unesco (Ducasse, Carnaval de Binche). Au même titre, les entrées princières, les processions, les représentations théâtrales ou encore les célébrations privées sont à l’ori-gine de répertoires dignes d’intérêt, œuvres d’artistes aux origines et aux carrières variées. C’est toute la diversité musicale d’une région, 1430 à 1600, et sa redécouverte au XIXe siècle que l’ouvrage, nourri des recherches les plus récentes menées par des spécialistes internatio-naux, étudie dans une série de chapitres consa-crés au mécénat, aux sources, aux répertoires ou encore aux pratiques musicales.

STUDIES ON ITALIAN MUSIC HISTORY

2014 witnessed the 250th anniversary of the death of two violin virtuosos: Pietro Antonio Locatelli (Bergamo 1695 – Amsterdam 1764)

and Jean-Marie Leclair (Lyon 1697 - Paris 1764). The influence of Locatelli’s output on the development of violin composition lay in the sphere of virtuosity. The present book explores the figures of Locatelli and Leclair, circumstantiating their relationships and de-veloping new perspectives onto them. The two virtuosos provide a suitable starting-point from which to investigate the violin bravura tradi-tion, which, beginning in Italy, spread through France and the rest of the XIX-century Europe. The volume thus encompasses articles dedi-cated to Artôt, Baillot, Guignon, Guillemain, Mondonville, Paganini, Pagin, Rode, Spohr, Tessarini, Tartini, Ysaÿe.

MONOGRAPHIES REINE ELISABETH

Les textes d’offrande du collier-menit inscrits sur les parois des temples se réfèrent à deux grands récits mythologiques : celui du mythe de la Lointaine où le roi apaise la déesse dange-reuse à son retour de Nubie au moyen de cette

parure parfois associée aux sistres, et également celui d’Horus et Seth où le roi, tel Horus, présente à la déesse un collier prenant alors la valeur des attributs du dieu Seth.L’étude de l’iconographie du collier, des cou-ronnes portées par les divinités et par le roi, la traduction de l’ensemble des textes relatifs à cette offrande et leur analyse, qu’elle soit gram-maticale, religieuse ou épigraphique, ont révélé le rôle fondamental que jouait ce collier-menit : lorsqu’il est présenté tel un objet sacré de la déesse Hathor, c’est la divinité qu’il incarne en étant le reflet de sa beauté, de sa brillance ; lorsqu’il symbolise les testicules du dieu Seth, il est un moyen pour le roi de légitimer son pou-voir royal sur le trône du Double Pays.Enfin l’auteure s’est efforcée de prendre en consi-dération la composition du programme décora-tif dans lequel cette offrande du collier-menit

PAPERS ON ARCHAEOLOGY FROM THE LEIDEN MUSEUM OF ANTIQUITIES

By means of technical examination of the gold objects now part of the renowned and out-standing Egyptian collection of the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden, this book gives a unique and innovatory insight in the work of the ancient Egyptian goldsmith.

In 1922 the world came face to face with a young pharaoh: in that year the tomb of Tut-ankhamun was discovered and his breathtaking gold mask became known to everybody. An-cient Egyptian gold is known to all of us. But what was the significance of gold in Ancient Egyptian society? Where was it found and how was it won? And where did the Ancient Egyp-tian goldsmith work and what techniques did he master?The first part of this book answers the ques-tions mentioned above. The second part is a catalogue of gold objects which are part of the renowned and outstanding collection of the Egyptian Department of the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden. By means of a tech-nical examination of these objects, this book gives a unique and innovatory insight in the work of the ancient Egyptian goldsmith, who was able to accomplish true work of art though working in hot and basic circumstances.

BERLINER TURFANTEXTE

The Sogdian texts published in this volume are of interest and importance in various ways. The Life of Serapion is particularly significant from a linguistic point of view, being a close translation of a known Syriac text, so that its

rare words and unusual grammatical forms can be interpreted with confidence. The Life of John of Dailam, on the other hand, differs substantially from the surviving Syriac versions and preserves details unrecorded elsewhere

concerning the history of western Iran in the early Islamic period. A text on omens represents an extremely ancient, pre-Christian survival, with clear parallels not only in Syriac but even in Babylonian omen texts, while a refutation of Manichaeism sheds light on the attitude of the Christian community in the Turfan oasis to-wards their Manichaean neighbours. All these texts are provided with translation and detailed commentary, and the volume concludes with grammatical notes, complete glossary, bibli-ography, index of words discussed, and eleven plates. This work will be of interest to special-ists in Iranian languages, mediaeval Iran and Central Asia, Syriac literature and the history of the “Church of the East”.

RELIGION AND LAW IN MEDIEVAL CHRISTIAN AND MUSLIM SOCIETIES

The eleven essays brought together in this vol-ume explore the relations between expulsion, diaspora, and exile between Late Antiquity and the seventeenth century. The essays range

from Hellenistic Egypt to seventeenth-century Hungary and involve expulsion and migration of Jews, Muslims and Protestants. The common goal of these essays is to shed light on a certain number of issues: first, to try to understand the dynamics of expulsion, in particular its social

and political causes; second, to examine how expelled communities integrate (or not) into their new host societies; and finally, to under-stand how the experiences of expulsion and ex-ile are made into founding myths that establish (or attempt to establish) group identities.

RURAL HISTORY IN EUROPE

The most commonly accepted idea is that spe-cialization is a step forward because it allows farmers to become market-orientated and to escape from the discredited principle of au-tarky. This book intends to return to this ques-tion. Is specialization always a mono-activity? Is it always a great stride forward? Does it take the same form in traditional and contemporary economies? Chronologically, specialization is not a linear process, nor irreversible: this can be observed during the Second World War in England and with the collapse of communism in Central Europe.

methods of historical interpretation, social network analysis, and econometrics. The book analyses these topics in three steps. First, the authors address whether social relations can be of economic use. Secondly, they examine the institutional conditions for such a conversion of social into economic capital, reconstruct-ing the often unexpected ways in which the economic and social spheres were connected both in ‘pre-modern’ and in ‘modern’ set-tings. Thirdly, they show how political institu-tions were constructed out of social networks.

STUDIES IN EUROPEAN URBAN HISTORY (1100-1800)

The way and extent to which differences in eco-nomic systems and stage of development, and the impact of institutional changes affected the political economy and fiscal systems of regions, or vice versa, is the overall theme of this volume. One major problem is the non-convergence of economic regions, financial networks, politi-cal borders and fiscal systems. The question is whether a set of variables is supra-regional, in-terregional, regional, local or even a mix of all of these. These questions have broad implica-tions for our understanding of urban society and the relations between town and country-side. This volume contains studies about eco-nomic, financial and political structures and

developments in different regions of the Low Countries and the Lower Rhine area in a re-gional comparative perspective during the Late Middle Ages and Early Modern Times.

THE MEDIEVAL COUNTRYSIDE

A critical appraisal of the influence exerted by Malthusian explanations of crisis in the early fourteenth century in the work of Michael Postan and Georges Duby.

These papers are taken from the first of a series of five international conferences devoted to the European conjuncture in 1300. They examine the enduring influence of Michael Postan’s Malthusian model of economic crisis, and in particular the impact upon non-English speak-ing historians of Postan’s ideas as interpreted by Georges Duby. Through both historiographical essays and original research, the authors reinter-pret the later medieval crisis on the continent and in Britain. The vision they express is of a medieval society in which economic, politi-cal, and social threads wove together town and country in a complex web extending to the fur-thest reaches of the ‘margin’, in the highlands of the Mediterranean and on the heaths of England.

This book explores the imposition and main-tenance of political power in al-Andalus and the relationship between local communities and central powers.

This volume explores new definitions of state power in Al-Andalus throughout the Middle Ages by examining the interactions of the An-dalusian state with its Islamic society, looking

at specific moments in Andalusian history in a variety of local, geographical contexts. The es-says collected here adopt largely archaeological methodologies, considering in turn the various spaces reclaimed by the state and its material re-mains, as well as the footprints of state impact on other local and territorial organizational

structures. In addition, these means of analysis directly highlight those spaces that remained outside of state control, while also supporting consideration of how and why they managed to do so.The essays use the territorial dimension of the kinship–state dichotomy as a starting point for considering its means of operation and evolution over time. Beginning with the traditional as-sumption that territorial configuration patterns are heavily determined by the relative weight of the different authorities operating in a given territory, the essays identify the different agents operating in Al-Andalus (mainly the state and gentry-based peasant communities) through in-sightful archaeological and historical consider-ations of medieval Andalusian society’s material remains. With special attention also paid to the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada — the Andalusian territory lasting longest under Muslim rule — this collection makes an important contribution to larger historiographical debates surrounding the medieval Islamic world.

Professor Bruce Campbell’s career has been devoted to providing systematic and highly influential studies of the medieval economy and society of the British Isles, including his innovative work on the role of the elites in me-dieval agricultural practices. This volume draws together essays from a distinguished group of researchers who have been inspired by Camp-bell’s work and the spirit of collegiality and inclusiveness that he has always demonstrated, and who wish to celebrate his significant contri-butions to scholarship. Many of the essays col-lected here engage directly with critical issues raised in Professor Campbell’s own research: how medieval society fed itself with reputedly very low levels of technology, the productivity of medieval society as a whole, the impact of external forces (particularly climate), the rela-tionship between lords and peasants, and the importance of non-seigniorial contributions to the medieval economy.

PRICES All prices are subject to change without prior notice. Prices exclude VAT, and shipping and handling costs, unless otherwise listed. Please accept a price variation when prices are listed approximative, since the final number of pages can be a little bit higher than originally planned. We will inform private customers when the price varies more than 15% from the price listed in the catalogue.For deliveries to customers within the European Union (EU) who do not have a VAT number, VAT will be added according to EU cross-border regulations (that is, individuals currently pay 6% on books). For deliveries to customers outside the European Union, VAT is not chargeable but national (import) duties or GSTs will be applied where necessary; in this case they will be charged through a local customs agent (usually the Post Office or another courier).
