Download or read book Rituals for the Dead written by William J. Courtenay and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2018-12-30 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his fascinating new book, based on the Conway Lectures he delivered at Notre Dame in 2016, William Courtenay examines aspects of the religious life of one medieval institution, the University of Paris, in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. In place of the traditional account of teaching programs and curriculum, however, the focus here is on religious observances and the important role that prayers for the dead played in the daily life of masters and students. Courtenay examines the university as a consortium of sub-units in which the academic and religious life of its members took place, and in which prayers for the dead were a major element. Throughout the book, Courtenay highlights reverence for the dead, which preserved their memory and was believed to reduce the time in purgatory for deceased colleagues and for founders of and donors to colleges. The book also explores the advantages for poor scholars of belonging to a confraternal institution that provided benefits to all members regardless of social background, the areas in which women contributed to the university community, including the founding of colleges, and the growth of Marian piety, seeking her blessing as patron of scholarship and as protector of scholars. Courtenay looks at attempts to offset the inequality between the status of masters and students, rich and poor, and college founders and fellows, in observances concerned with death as well as rewards and punishments in the afterlife. Rituals for the Dead is the first book-length study of religious life and remembrances for the dead at the medieval University of Paris. Scholars of medieval history will be an eager audience for this title.

  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 328 pages

Download or read book Mind Matters written by Cary J. Nederman and published by Brepols Publishers. This book was released on 2009 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marcia Colish is one of the most influential scholars of the history of medieval and early modern thought, the author of numerous books and scores of articles in the field, as well as a pioneering President of the Medieval Academy of America. This volume honours her accomplishments with papers by her many colleagues, friends, and former students, who are themselves prominent scholars from across a range of disciplines. The chapters are diverse chronologically and topically, yet they are all stimulated by themes that Prof. Colish has explored during her long and distinguished career. They address the richness of European intellectual history between the twelfth and the sixteenth centuries, treating the multiple heritages of philosophy, theology, political theory, historiography, classical reception, and many other subjects to which her scholarship extends. The volume demonstrates the power of ideas in the development of European history generally, revealing that the careful study of the works of the 'mind' does indeed 'matter'.

Book Historia Salonitanorum Atque Spalatinorum Pontificum

Download or read book Historia Salonitanorum Atque Spalatinorum Pontificum written by Thomas (Spalatensis, Archdeacon) and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the 4th volume of the series of Central European Medieval Texts, Latin and English bilingual editions of major historical documents. Ever since Thomas' "Historia Salonitana" was first published in 1666, it became a part of the corpus of European medieval literature. Thomas' aim was to write a history of the church of Split in order to prove that it was legally and justly the heir of the metropolitan rights of nearby Salona, an episcopal see from the 4th century. His reports on the fourth and fifth crusade and the Mongol invasion of 1241-2, are based on personal experience or on eyewitness reports.

Book 1308

    Book Details:
  • Author : Andreas Speer
  • Publisher : de Gruyter
  • Release : 2010
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 1058 pages

Download or read book 1308 written by Andreas Speer and published by de Gruyter. This book was released on 2010 with total page 1058 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dieser Band der Miscellanea Mediaevalia ist einem Jahr gewidmet: 1308. Die Wahl dieses Jahres scheint arbiträr, denn dieses Jahr zählt - abgesehen von wenigen markanten Ereignissen wie dem Templerprozess oder dem Tod des Johannes Duns Scotus - nicht zu den prominenten Jahren. Der Band wagt ein historiografisches Experiment, indem er gegenüber einem Entwicklungsmodell, das die Aufmerksamkeit auf vermeintliche Höhe- und Wendepunkte lenkt, sich jenen Momenten im Schlagschatten dieser "lauten" Ereignisse zuwendet. Die Fragestellung des Bandes, der auf die 36. Kölner Mediävistentagung zurückgeht, will daher neue Perspektiven eröffnen, indem sie einlädt, Sehgewohnheiten in Frage zu stellen, zu schärfen, zu verlängern - anhand eines Jahres und auch über dieses Jahr und seine historische Peripherie hinaus. Die Aufmerksamkeit richtet sich, beginnend bei einer lokalen Detailaufnahme, auf verschiedene thematische und methodische Facetten: Ereigniswahrnehmung, auch mit Blick auf die Erschließung neuer Welten, Johannes Duns Scotus in Kontext, Theologie in Paris, Philosophie in Italien, Medizin und Poetik, die Grenzen Europas, Orthodoxie und Häresie, 1308 im Spiegel der Künste, aus jüdischer und islamischer Sicht.

Book English Episcopal Acta 29

    Book Details:
  • Author : Philippa Hoskin
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2005-05-26
  • ISBN : 9780197263075
  • Pages : 380 pages

Download or read book English Episcopal Acta 29 written by Philippa Hoskin and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005-05-26 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This latest edition to the English Episcopal Acta series brings together for the first time edited versions of all the extant charters issued by the bishops of Durham between 1241 and 1283: Nicholas Farnham, Walter Kirkham, Robert Stichill and Robert of Holy Island (the last two, unusually at this date, monastic bishops). The surviving charters provide insights into episcopal administration and estate management in the mid-thirteenth-century diocese. A full introduction considers the lives of these little-studied bishops and the diplomatic of their charters, as well as the unusual structure of the episcopal households here. The bishops' itineraries are also given in an appendix. This volume complements EEA 24IR (0-19-726234-1) and EEA 25 (0-19-726235-X), which contained the acta from 1153 onwards.
