Re-Thinking Late Antique Armenia: Historiography, Material Culture, and Heritage
Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 191 pages, Size:210 x 270 mm, Illustrations:30 b/w, 125 col., 2 maps color, Language: English. ISBN 9788028003067.
¶ Summary This book questions the place of Armenian visual and material culture in the period known as Late Antiquity, at a time when Armenia is usually presented as an in-between space defined by surrounding external entities: the Roman and the Persian, and later Arab world. The volume includes articles that confront this notion both from the perspective of art history, architecture, and archaeology, and from a historiographical point of view, which examines the reception of Armenian arts by scholars from Italy, Russia, and France. The articles in this richly illustrated volume aim to reposition Armenia as one of the forces of artistic creation and mediation to be reckoned with within the Mediterranean and Eurasian space of Late Antiquity. This project draws on the papers presented at the conference ?Re-Constructing Late Antique Armenia (2nd-8th Centuries CE). Historiography, Material Culture, Immaterial Heritage? that took place in February 2022 at the Center for Early Medieval Studies in Brno, Czech Republic.

caduta di Acri 1291. Raccolta delle imprese legate allo sterminio di Acri - Taddeo di Napoli, Storia della desolazione e della distruzione della città di Acri e di tutta la Terra Santa
Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 168 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:2 tables b/w., Language: Italian. ISBN 9782503602646.
¶ Summary La caduta di San Giovanni d'Acri nel 1291, che segna la fine degli stati crociati d'Oltremare, rappresenta un punto di svolta nella storia medievale, già percepito come tale dai contemporanei. Sulla scia immediata dell'evento, due scritti narrano e commentano la battaglia: l'anonima Excidii Aconis gestorum collectio (composta probabilmente nel Nord della Francia) e l'Ystoria de desolatione et conculcatione ciuitatis Acconensis et tocius Terre Sancte di Taddeo di Napoli, venata di influssi gioachimiti. Entrambi ripercorrono con impressionante vividità le vicende che hanno portato allo scontro e soprattutto la disperata resistenza della città, mettendo in scena una molteplicità di personaggi nelle loro dinamiche di collaborazione e dissenso: i maestri degli Ordini Militari, i governanti e il patriarca, la folla dei combattenti e delle vittime inermi; dall'altra parte, i due sultani che si succedono nel corso degli eventi con il loro popolo di ?infedeli?, sinistri eppure valorosi. Lo stile adottato dall'Anonimo e da Taddeo è improntato a un preziosismo al limite talvolta della comprensibilità, che rende ardua la lettura nell'originale latino. La traduzione italiana mette a disposizione in modo più facilmente accessibile due fonti fondamentali per la storia delle crociate e della percezione di esse nella cultura del tempo. La versione latina originale dei testi qui tradotti è pubblicata nella collana Corpus Christianorum, Continuatio Mediaeualis con il titolo Excidii Aconis gestorum collectio; Ystoria de desolatione et conculcatione ciuitatis Acconensis et tocius Terre Sancte (CC CM, 202), a cura di R.B.C. Huygens (2004). I rimandi alle pagine corrispondenti dell'edizione sono forniti a margine di questa traduzione.

Paganism in the Middle Ages : Threat and Fascination
UPL, 2013 Softcover with flaps, 250 pages, ENG edition, 240 x 160 x 20 mm, New condition, a few b/w illustrations. ISBN 9789058679338.
¶ Interdisciplinary study of pagan culture from late antiquity to the emergent Renaissance In this volume the persistence, resurgence, threat, fascination, and repression of various forms of pagan culture are studied in an interdisciplinary perspective from late antiquity to the emergent Renaissance. Contributions deal with the survival of pagan beliefs and practices, as well as with the Christianization of pagan rural populations or with the different strategies of oppression of pagan beliefs. The authors examine problems raised by the encounter with pagan cultures outside the Muslim world and show how philosophers contrived to ?save' the great philosophers and poets from ancient culture notwithstanding their paganism. The contributors also study the fascination of classic ?pagan' culture among friars during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries and the imitation of pagan models of virtue and mythology in Renaissance poetry.

Caroline Macé (ed)
Organising a Literary Corpus in the Middle Ages. The Corpus Nazianzenum and the Corpus Dionysiacum
Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 700 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:6 b/w, 15 col., 12 tables b/w., Language(s):English, French, German. ISBN 9782503610962.
¶ Summary Through the word corpus, the metaphor of the body is applied to a collection of works by the same author that are transmitted together. These works not only share the same skin, the manuscript, but also function organically thanks to a complex system of paracontents. It is possible to see this system at work in the case of only a very few medieval authors throughout history, cultures and languages; the Corpus Nazianzenum and the Corpus Dionysiacum are such instances. Both Gregory of Nazianzus and Dionysius the Areopagite are super-authors, who forged their own literary identity as much as they shaped the body of their writings. This sets both corpora apart from other collections of patristic works. They are also exceptional because of the large scale and enduring character of their cultural impact in the different cultures in which the corpora were translated, commented and annotated. By confronting these two exceptional cases, it is possible to gain some new light on the intellectual and book-historical aspects of literary creation and reception in Late Antiquity and the Middle Ages.

Cassiodorus Senator, Ilaria Morresi(ed)
Institutiones humanarum litterarum di Cassiodoro. Commento alle redazioni interpolate ? ?
Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 554 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:72 b/w, 15 tables b/w., Language(s):Italian, Latin. ISBN 9782503595900.
¶ Summary The Institutiones humanarum litterarum - that is, the second book of Cassiodorus' masterpiece, devoted to secular learning - have come down to us in three different textual forms: the 'authentic' recension ?, corresponding to Cassiodorus' final wishes, and two subsequent recensions, designated as ? and ?. In these two recensions, later interpolations were added on the basis of an earlier authorial draft, providing modern readers with valuable information both about Cassiodorus' progressive revisions and about the early fortune of his work. This volume provides a full commentary to the first critical edition of the interpolated recensions ? and ? (CC SL 99A). In doing so, it conveys a full picture of the complex history of the Institutiones saeculares, from their first appearance in the monastery of Vivarium to the Carolingian Renaissance, at which time they knew their greatest success and circulation.

art médiéval est-il contemporain ? Is Medieval Art Contemporary?
Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 247 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:5 b/w, 66 col., Language(s):English, French. ISBN 9782503599731.
¶ Summary This publication brings together essays by scholars of both medieval and contemporary art, offering a cross-disciplinary approach of both periods. It investigates how contemporary artists and contemporary art historians perceive medieval art, and, reciprocally, how medieval art historians envisage the echoes of medieval artforms and esthetics in contemporary art. The volume follows on from the symposium organized in conjunction with the exhibition "Make it New: Carte Blanche à Jan Dibbets" that was held at the Bibliothèque Nationale de France (Paris) in 2019, and which presented side by side Hrabanus Maurus's De Laudibus Sanctae Crucis (In Praise of the Holy Cross), a masterpiece of Carolingian art, with works by artists associated with conceptual art, mininimal art, and land art. How and why has medieval art, and particularly early medieval art, inspired contemporary artists since the 1950s? What has medieval art contributed to contemporary art? How has medieval art's treatment of figures, color, space, geometry, and rhythm provided inspiration for contemporary artists' experiments with form? In what way does contemporary artists' engagement with the topics of formatting, writing, semiosis, mimesis, and ornamentation draw inspiration from medieval models? To what extent and in what sense are the notions of authorship and performativity relevant for understanding conceptions of artmaking in both periods? Rather than focusing on medievalism and citational practices, or on the theory of images'both approaches having already produced an important body of comparative readings of medieval and contemporary art'the essays in this volume address the question of medieval art's contemporaneity thematically, through three trans-chronological topics: authorship, semiosis and mathematics, and performance. Engaging the artists' works as well as their writings, these studies conflate conceptual and esthetic perspectives.

Théodulf d'Orléans (vers 760-821). Histoire et mémoire d'un évêque carolingien
Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 291 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:3 col., 4 tables b/w., Language: French. ISBN 9782503601588.
¶ Summary Parmi les lettrés entrés au service de Charlemagne à la fin du VIIIe siècle, Théodulf est une figure à la fois représentative et singulière. Par ses productions et ses fonctions de missus, d'évêque, d'abbé, il contribue à l'élaboration et à la mise en ?uvre des réformes et fait partie des proches du souverain. Sa déposition en 818 jette cependant une ombre sur sa carrière et sur ce qu'il est possible d'en reconstituer. À partir de l'étude de son ?uvre et des variations de son image dans les sources du premier Moyen Âge, y compris manuscrites, cet ouvrage examine les différentes facettes de son action et de son parcours, comme lettré et comme prélat, et met en lumière le jeu d'échelles qui caractérise les réformes carolingiennes. Grâce à l'analyse de son environnement relationnel, la participation de Théodulf à la révolte de Bernard d'Italie et sa disgrâce font l'objet de nouvelles hypothèses.

Llanthony Stories. A Translation of the Narrationes aliquot fabulosae
Brepols, 2021 Paperback, x + 173 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9780888443090.
¶ Summary Compiled in the early thirteenth century, The Llanthony Stories is a fragmentary collection of exemplaria gathered by an anonymous canon at the Augustinian priory of Llanthony Secunda, Gloucester. While intended primarily for the edification of readers and those who heard the stories preached in sermons, many of the thirty-five exempla offer humorous (even ribald) glimpses of life in the Severn watershed and beyond. Filled with short tales of greedy archdeacons, licentious monks, pious laymen and prelates trying to navigate their world with decorum and piety, the work expands our knowledge of ecclesiastical politics and evangelical priorities in the Anglo-Norman church. Although the work survives in a single manuscript witness, it has long been known to historians and scholars of medieval literature. This volume makes the collection available in modern English for the first time. The translation, accompanied by extensive notes, is complemented by a contextualizing historical introduction and an edition of the Latin text.

From the Domesday Book to Shakespeare's Globe. The Legal and Political Heritage of Elizabethan Drama
Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 456 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503601311.
¶ Summary The phrase 'Jus Uncommon' summarizes England's claim to independence from Europe, a claim supported by its unique legal system and Elizabethan theatre, and their strong interconnexion. Elizabethan tragedy begins at the Inns of Court. It was no mere coincidence, but a result of the long history of intersecting processes of law, politics, and theatre. This book sets out to contextualize and explore such legal and literary intersections, charting the emergence of Elizabethan legal culture from its various English and European sources over the course of the four hundred years running from Magna Carta to Shakespeare. It encompasses the major strands of legal history and culture that formed the background to Elizabethan political drama, republican tradition, theories of monarchical sovereignty,?European and English theories of'imperium,?pedagogical and rhetorical practices of the Inns of Court,?legal-antiquarian research, parliamentary privilege, and Tudor political pamphleteering. Legal texts, discourses, and social practices constructed a pervasive intellectual culture from which Elizabethan drama - like Shakespeare's - emerged. Shakespeare is not the central object of this study, but he is central to its argument. What he knew about law was what collective memory had stored from centuries past at home and abroad. The issues, characters, themes, theories, and metaphors dramatized by the Elizabethan playwrights followed the way opened at the Inns. Emblematic figures of lawyers-writers and their Senecan patterns paved the way to Gorboduc and to Shakespeare's histories. TABLE OF CONTENTS Editorial Note Introduction : Law or Liberty? Part I.

Materiality of Sound in Chant Manuscripts in the West. Scriptor, Cantor & Notator (Volume I)
Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 328 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:107 b/w, 33 tables b/w., 2 maps b/w, Language(s):English, Italian, French. ISBN 9782503606149.
¶ Summary Scriptor, Cantor & Notator is an innovative multi-author project dealing with the complex interconnections between learning, writing and performing chant in the Middle Ages. A number of different methodological approaches have been employed, with the aim of beginning to understand the phenomenon of chant transmission over a large geographical area, linking and contrasting modern definitions of East and West. Thus, in spite of this wide geographical spread, and the consequent variety of rites, languages and musical styles involved, the common thread of parallels and similarities between various chant repertoires arising from the need to fix oral repertories in a written form, and the challenges involved in so doing, are what bring this wide variety of repertoires and approaches together. This multi-centric multi-disciplinary approach will encourage scholars working in these areas to consider their work as part of a much larger geographical and historical picture, and thus reveal to reader and listener more, and far richer, patterns of connections and developments than might otherwise have been suspected. Scriptor, Cantor & Notator is published in two books. The first, The Materiality of Sound in Chant Manuscripts in the West, brings together articles on several different families of early music scripts in the Latin West and provides a vividly diverse picture of some of the best current scholarship on the various types of ancient and medieval musical notation.

Frits van Oostrom
Reynaert leven met een middeleeuws meesterwerk
Prometheus, 2023 Hardcover, 592 pag. NL, 235 x 160 x 45 mm, Nieuw, met ill. ISBN 9789044642674.
¶ Van den vos Reynaerde geldt als hét meesterwerk van onze middeleeuwse letterkunde, en misschien wel van de hele Nederlandse literatuur. Wat is het geheim van deze klassieker, die in elke tijd ook leest als een moderne roman, en die zoveel heeft betekend voor zovelen? Met de eruditie van de kenner en het enthousiasme van de liefhebber besloot Frits van Oostrom om een boek te wijden aan de Reynaert, met het doel te laten zien wat deze tekst zo uniek maakt voor al die generaties lezers en onderzoekers die ? soms op het obsessieve af ? met de Reynaert hebben geleefd. En uiteindelijk gaat het ook over Van Oostroms eigen levenslange omgang met onze beroemdste middeleeuwer: een vos. De Reynaert. Leven met een middeleeuws meesterwerk biedt in zijn breedte en diepte een weergaloos panorama van literatuur, geschiedenis en wetenschap. Met een nieuwe editie naar alle bronnen van de Middelnederlandse tekst, door Ingrid Biesheuvel en Frits van Oostrom. Frits van Oostrom is universiteitshoogleraar te Utrecht. Hij ontving talloze prijzen en eerbewijzen, waaronder de AKO Literatuurprijs, de Spinozaprijs en in Vlaanderen de Keizer Karelprijs en de Gouden Penning van de Belgische Academie van Wetenschappen. Zijn meest recente boek, Nobel streven, werd in 2018 bekroond met de Libris Geschiedenis Prijs.

'Genuesische Weltkarte von 1457'. Bild und Stimme einer ambiguen Welt
Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 504 pages, Size:210 x 270 mm, Illustrations:33 b/w, 17 col., 4 tables b/w., Language(s):German, Latin. ISBN 9782503601892.
¶ Summary Dieses Buch lenkt den Fokus auf die Rolle vormoderner Karten als potenzielle Stimmen, die Überzeugungen und Handlungsaufforderungen vermittelten. Es stellt ein neues Konzept zur Analyse vormoderner Karte vor und setzt es am Beispiel der sogenannten 'Genuesischen Weltkarte' von 1457 um, einer anonymen, dem nordmediterranen Raum entstammenden Karte, von der weder der genaue Erstellungsort noch der unmittelbare Nutzungskontext bekannt sind. Im ausgehenden Mittelalter beschäftigten sich verschiedenartige Kreise intensiv mit geographischen und kartographischen Fragen. Zusätzlich zu den Zeugnissen gelehrter Mönche und Kleriker wird nun das Interesse von weltlichen Gelehrten, Fürsten, Notaren, Händlern, Seefahrern und humanistischen Zirkeln an Karten greifbarer. Angeregt wurde dieses Interesse durch das Anwachsen des Wissens über die Welt. Lateineuropäische Reisende und Gesandte aus fernen Ländern berichteten über ihre Erfahrungen aus Asien und Afrika. Frühe Humanisten fanden Handschriften fast vergessener antiker Werke wieder, so dass sich der Blick auf das Autoritätenwissen änderte. Insbesondere die spätestens 1409 fertiggestellte lateinische Übersetzung der ?Geographia' des Alexandriner Astronomen Klaudios Ptolemaios machte Furore und wird in der Forschung als Anstoß einschneidender Veränderungen der Kartographie gesehen. Der Abgleich der 'Genuesischen Weltkarte' mit Karten aus über 130 Archivsignaturen zeigt, dass sie sich in mehrfacher Hinsicht von den üblichen Karten des 14./15. Jahrhunderts der nordmediterranen Region abhebt. Ihre Kartenmacher waren keine konventionellen Ersteller von Küstenlinienkarten oder Serienkarten. Vielmehr waren sie humanistisch interessiert, mathematisch gebildet und entstammten wahrscheinlich dem Umfeld der Kurie und des Konzils von Ferrara-Florenz (1438-1445). Es greift zu kurz, ihre innovative Anlehnung an Ptolemaios als Verengung des Fokus rein auf topographische Genauigkeit zu deuten, vielmehr zeichneten sie ein raumzeitliches, als kohärente heilsgeschichtliche Erzählung zu verstehendes Bild der Welt.

Graeme Boone (ed)
Music in the Carolingian World. Witnesses to a Metadiscipline, Essays in Honor of Charles M. Atkinson
Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 455 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:33 b/w, 12 col., 19 tables b/w., 23 musical examples, Language(s):English, French. ISBN 9782503603308.
¶ Summary Music in the Carolingian World stems from a conference honoring the career and wide-ranging research of Prof. Charles M. Atkinson, leading scholar in early-medieval studies and author of the award-winning monograph, The Critical Nexus (2010). The volume brings together seventeen essays to explore the broad ramifications of music as an arena of study in early-medieval culture; taken together, they manifest the status of music not just as a field of research, but as a metadiscipline that embraces numerous fields and specializations in medieval studies, including philosophy, theology, literature, philology, paleography, liturgy, education, political and institutional history, as well as the practice, theory, and transmission of chant and related musical repertories. The essays are grouped into the four thematic categories of Verbum, Numerus, Ars, and Cultus, bookended by three keynote essays that touch in different ways on the theme of metadisciplinarity.
