Book excerpt: Asturias contemporánea (1808-1936), de David Ruiz, estudia sintéticamente ese amplio periodo histórico que va desde el fin del Antiguo Régimen, etapa en la que destaca la aportación asturiana a una revolución liberal fallida, hasta la profunda crisis social y política abre con la proclamación de la II República española, crisis que alcanzará en Asturias sus puntos álgidos con la Revolución de Octubre y el triunfo del Frente Popular. El autor se enfrenta con la historia del pasado asturiano y sitúa en el contexto de la historia española con la intención de que ambas puedan explicarse de manera mas convincente. Al sondear el pasado en busca de explicaciones que faciliten la correcta comprensión de la realidad presente, David Ruiz va analizando en qué medida la sociedad asturiana, inserta en el marco de un estado centralista, se ha planteado la solución que se fueron gestando a lo largo de los dos últimos siglos, problemas que, en algunos casos, siguen aún gravitando sobre la región asturiana. Una selección de documentos, un análisis del estado actual de las investigaciones sobre la historia regional y una serie de apéndices orientadores (bibliografía, cronología y gráficos) completan esta historia de la Asturias contemporánea con la que el autor estimular el conocimiento y el debate la historia de su región.
Download or read book Urban Transformations in the Late Antique West Materials Agents and Models written by André Carneiro and published by Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra / Coimbra University Press. This book was released on 2020 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is the fruit of a highly productive international research gathering academic and professional (field- and museum) colleagues to discuss new results and approaches, recent finds and alternative theoretical assessments of the period of transition and transformation of classical towns in Late Antiquity. Experts from an array of modern countries attended and presented to help compare and contrast critically archaeologies of diverse regions and to debate the qualities of the archaeology and the current modes of study. While a number of papers inevitably focused on evidence available for both Spain and Portugal, we were delighted to have a spread of contributions that extended the picture to other territories in the Late Roman West and Mediterranean. The emphasis was very much on the images presented by archaeology (rescue and research works, recent and past), but textual data were also brought into play by various contributors.
Download or read book In Laudem Hierosolymitani written by Ronnie Ellenblum and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 766 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the thirty-five years since B.Z. Kedar published the first of his many studies on the crusades, he has become a leading historian of this field, and of medieval and Middle Eastern history more broadly. His work has been groundbreaking, uncovering new evidence and developing new research tools and methods of analysis with which to study the life of Latins and non-Latins in both the medieval West and the Frankish East. From the Israeli perspective, Kedar's work forms a important part of the historical and cultural heritage of the country. This volume presents 31 essays written by eminent medievalists in his honour. They reflect his methods and diversity of interest. The collection, outstanding in both quality and range of topics, covers the Latin East and relations between West and East in the time of the crusades. The individual essays deal with the history, archaeology and art of the Holy Land, the crusades and the military orders, Islam, historiography, Mediterranean commerce, medieval ideas and literature, and the Jews Given Benjamin Kedar's close involvement with the Society for the Study of the Crusades and the Latin East and his years as its President, and his work to establish the journal Crusades, it is fitting that this volume should appear as the first in a series of Subsidia to the journal. For information about the Society for the Study of the Crusades and the Latin East, see the society's website: www.sscle.org.

Download or read book Meanings and Functions of the Ruler s Image in the Mediterranean World 11th 15th Centuries written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-01-31 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: (The open access version of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation.) The book proposes a reassessment of royal portraiture and its function in the Middle Ages via a comparative analysis of works from different areas of the Mediterranean world, where images are seen as only one outcome of wider and multifarious strategies for the public mise-en-scène of the rulers’ bodies. Its emphasis is on the ways in which medieval monarchs in different areas of the Mediterranean constructed their outward appearance and communicated it by means of a variety of rituals, object-types, and media. Contributors are Michele Bacci, Nicolas Bock, Gerardo Boto Varela, Branislav Cvetković, Sofia Fernández Pozzo, Gohar Grigoryan Savary, Elodie Leschot, Vinni Lucherini, Ioanna Rapti, Juan Carlos Ruiz Souza, Marta Serrano-Coll, Lucinia Speciale, Manuela Studer-Karlen, Mirko Vagnoni, and Edda Vardanyan.

Download or read book The Work of Jacques Le Goff and the Challenges of Medieval History written by Miri Rubin and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 1997 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essays on medieval history inspired by, and engaging with, the work of Jacques Le Goff. The essays in this volume arise from the proceedings of a conference held in 1994 to celebrate the life and work of the eminent French medievalist Jacques Le Goff. Set within thematic sections -popular religion and heresy, the body, royalty andits mystique, intellectuals in medieval society, and others -many of the challenges raised by Le Goff are reassessed and reapproached. There is an explicit historiographical focus in a section on the reception and influence of Le Goff, with particular reference to the Annales school of history with which he is strongly identified; the volume also indicates the problems which animate current research in medieval studies, especially in certain areas of social and cultural history. MIRI RUBIN is Professor of History, Queen Mary, University of London. Contributors: ALEXANDER MURRAY, PETER BILLER, ANDRÉ VAUCHEZ, R.I. MOORE, OTTO GERHARD OEXLE, LESTER K.
