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.

Dominique Goy-Blanquet
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.

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.

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.

Justine Audebrand
Frères et soeurs dans l'Europe du haut Moyen Âge (vers 650 - vers 1000)
Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 440 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:33 b/w, 9 col., 7 tables b/w., 5 maps color, Language: French. ISBN 9782503604961.
¶ Summary Les relations entre frères et s'urs constituent encore un champ mal exploré de l'étude de la famille pour la période allant de 650 à 1000. Pourtant, ce lien est un élément essentiel des sociétés du haut Moyen Âge, tant dans les mondes franc et germanique qu'en Angleterre. Dans les discours de l'Église, il est même un idéal. En outre, dans le contexte démographique médiéval, la relation adelphique - c'est-à-dire entre frères et s'urs - est souvent la plus pérenne : face à la mort précoce des parents et à un veuvage fréquent, elle accompagne les individus tout au long de leur existence. Étudier les relations adelphiques est également une manière d'envisager les relations entre hommes et femmes grâce aux dernières avancées de recherche sur le genre. Pour étudier ces liens spécifiques, il convient de s'intéresser à une large documentation et d'emprunter aux outils de la sociologie et de l'anthropologie. La relation adelphique apparaît alors une donnée importante des sociétés du haut Moyen Âge et que son étude permet de complexifier l'histoire de la famille sur cette période. TABLE OF CONTENTS Remerciements Introduction Faire l'histoire des frères et soeurs Une approche comparatiste Chapitre 1 : Parler des frères et soeurs Un vocabulaire pluriel Entre le biologique et le spirituel Les tournants des VIIIe et Xe siècles Chapitre 2 : Définir les groupes adelphiques Aux marges du groupe La place de chacun Chapitre 3 : De l'enfance à l'âge adulte Le rôle des parents Se substituer aux parents Chapitre 4 : L'économie du pouvoir Modèles royaux Dans le reste de l'aristocratie Chapitre 5 : Gérer les biens Un patrimoine commun Affaires de famille : les échanges au sein du groupe Les monastères familliaux Chapitre 6 : Dans l'initimité Frères et soeurs solidaires Sentiments adelphiques L'inceste entre frère et soeur Chapitre 7 : En guerre Choisir le même camp La famille déchirée Chapitre 8 : À l'épreuve de veuvage Le frère entre soutien utile et tutelle encombrante La réaffirmation du lien entre soeurs Chapitre 9 : Face à la mort Assister les mourants Commémorer ses frères et soeurs Après la mort Conclusion Annexes Annexe 1 : Schémas de filiation Annexe 2 : Dossier iconographique Bibliographie Index des noms de lieu Index des noms de personne.

Krijgers Voor God : De Orde Van De Tempeliers In De Lage Landen (1120-1312)
Davidsfonds 2007 Walburg Pers, 2007 Paperback, 242 pagina's, NL, 240 x 165 mm, in prima staat. ISBN 9789081129718.
¶ Fascinerende geschiedenis van de tempeliers in onze gewesten. Christen ridders of gewetenloze onruststokers? Historicus geeft een genuanceerd beeld van de tempeliers. Het conflict in het Midden-Oosten en de Da Vinci Code: ze hebben kruistochten en ridderorden als grondslag. Maar waar eindigt de mythe en begint de realiteit? Dit boek stelt scherp op de orde van de tempeliers. Wie waren die mysterieuze krijgers voor God? En vooral: welke rol speelden zij in de Lage Landen? 1120. Negen ridders, onder wie de Vlaming Godfried van Sint-Omaars, leggen kloostergeloften af. Ze zullen de pelgrims, die naar Jeruzalem toestromen, beschermen tegen moslims. De orde van de tempeliers, tegelijkertijd religieus én militair, is een feit. De verre Nederlanden worden een logistieke en financiële draaischijf van de orde. Hier werven de tempeliers rekruten, ze verwerven er vastgoed, drijven handel, boeren en bankieren? Speelt die rijkdom een rol in het doodvonnis van de tempeliers? In 1312 wordt de orde op bevel van Filips de Schone afgeschaft.

Writing the Twilight. The Arabic Poetics of Ageing in Medieval Sicily and al-Andalus
Brepols, 2023 Hardback, x + 190 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language(s):English, Arabic. ISBN 9782503600536.
¶ Summary In the eleventh century, as Muslim sovereignty in the Western Mediterranean was eroded by both internal divisions and external attacks, Sicily fell to the Normans. At the same time, al-Andalus fragmented into a series of small kingdoms that were then picked off by powerful conquerors. Against this backdrop, Arabic poets made use of their craft to try and explain the changes in their world. Among them were the Andalusian Ab? Ish'q and the Sicilian Ibn Hamd's, both of whom wrote vividly about their own ageing and mortality, as well as about the broader twilight of the worlds they knew. Taking these two protagonists as its starting point, this extraordinary volume explores how Ab? Ish'q and Ibn Hamd's, despite their different locations, both made use of poetry. For them, it was a tool to confront their mortality, lament their own physical decay, and appeal to their age and experience, as well as a way of juxtaposing their concerns with the political and social dismemberment of their wider societies and the need for a restoration of world order. The result is also a broader discussion of the relationship between poetry and politics in Maghrib? Islam, and a reminder of poetry's importance as a medium to engage with the world.

Maritime Exchange and the Making of Norman Worlds
Brepols, 2023 Hardback, x + 230 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:17 b/w, 12 col., 3 maps b/w, 3 maps color, Language: English. ISBN 9782503602172.
¶ Summary Between c. 1000 and c. 1200 AD, emigrants from Normandy travelled long distances from their homeland, spreading their political influence to the shores of the North Sea, the Irish Sea, the Mediterranean, the Black Sea, and the Baltic. Their willingness to cross the seas gave Normans access to new territories and new ideas, extending their authority and reputation far beyond northern France. But how and why were these Norman groups able to develop such power? The chapters collected here engage directly with this question by examining the sites and processes that underpinned this expansion. The contributors ask what different Norman groups took from the societies around them, and what they rejected; they consider how non-Norman powers ? in Ireland, England, the Fatimid Caliphate, Byzantium, the Holy Land, and Rus' ? responded to, and were shaped by, their interactions with Normans in contested zones; and they examine how Normans understood and imagined their own relationship with the sea as a place of exchange, a zone of uncertain control, and an ambiguous kind of border. Drawing together material culture and written evidence, this far-reaching volume offers a fully-developed discussion of how, and in what ways, these Norman worlds and societies could be said to be ?transcultural', and in doing so, makes a compelling case that attention to movement and maritime exchange must be central to our understanding of the extension of Norman influence in this period.

forêts princières dans le comté de Bourgogne aux XIVe et XVe siècles
Brepols, 2024 Paperback, 256 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:7 maps b/w, Language: French. ISBN 9782503595542.
¶ Summary Membre du Saint-Empire romain germanique depuis 1032, le comté de Bourgogne fut rattaché au duché d'outre-Saône de 1330 à 1361 et de 1384 à 1477. Cette double union bourguignonne se traduisit, entre autres, par la création d'un office (la gruerie) chargé des eaux et forêts princières. L'institution et les eaux ayant donné lieu à la publication de deux ouvrages spécifiques, ce troisième volume termine le triptyque décrivant un aspect important du domaine comtal. La principale caractéristique de la sylve princière était l'absence de résineux. L'exploitation des chartes de franchises, de la comptabilité de la gruerie et d'une remarquable série de terriers (1454-1476) permet une étude précise des feuillus. Leur description nécessite la localisation des forêts par châtellenie, l'évaluation parfois de leur superficie, et l'analyse des peuplements. Quatre essences l'emportèrent sur les autres: chênes, hêtres, pommiers et poiriers. Cette approche est complétée par le statut juridique des bois. Utilisant ces derniers, les princes et Marguerite de France donnèrent des arbres, en vendirent pour diverses raisons. Mais leurs forêts formèrent aussi une réserve de combustible (les salines de Salins étant les principales consommatrices). Quant aux animaux sauvages, ils furent chassés, seuls les porcs donnèrent lieu à la «paisson», source importante du «pesnaige» (redevance). Pendant toute la période, la protection des forêts se traduisit par un personnel et une justice efficaces. Les «mesusants» (délinquants) comparurent devant des juges dans le cadre des «jours» pour être condamnés à des amendes. Peut-on parler de sylviculture?

¶ Summary During his second stay in Paris (1297-1299), Ramon Llull developed an extraordinary literary activity writing 16 works, some of them of considerable length. His attention was once again focused on the presentation of the Art, either to summarize it in accordance with the new changes he had introduced (beginning with the Tabula generalis, op. 53, ROL XXVII), or to present it as a method of renewal of the particular sciences (astronomy and geometry) or as an instrument in the debate on the errors condemned by the bishop of Paris in 1277. The four works presented in this volume are examples of this activity. The Disputatio Eremitae et Raimundi (op. 76) not only represents Llull's closest approximation to the university style of studying the science of theology, based on the Sentences of Peter Lombard, but also the most radical application of his Art as opposed to any discussion fed by the exegesis of "auctoritates". In Arbor philosophiae amoris (op. 77), on the other hand, the application of the Art follows the intent of his previous Ars amativa boni (op. 46, ROL XXIX), thus revealing the intimate connection between the austerity of the artistic language and the exuberance of the contemplative language, the true hallmark of Lullian mysticism. The Consolatio Venetorum (op. 78) illustrates the innovative approach that the Lullian project offers for the moral and political life of the Church. There is no medieval Latin manuscript tradition of the Cantus Raimundi (op. 79).
