Book The Conquest of Santar  m and Goswin   s Song of the Conquest of Alc  cer do Sal

Download or read book The Conquest of Santar m and Goswin s Song of the Conquest of Alc cer do Sal written by Jonathan Wilson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-26 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Achieved at the height of the Crusades, the Christian conquests of Santarém in 1147 by King Afonso I, and of Alcácer do Sal in 1217 by Portuguese forces and northern European warriors on their way by sea to Palestine, were crucial events in the creation of the independent kingdom of Portugal. The two texts presented here survive in their unique, thirteenth-century manuscript copies appended to a codex belonging to one of Europe’s most important monastic library collections accumulated in the Cistercian abbey of Alcobaça, founded c. 1153 by Bernard of Clairvaux. Accompanied by comprehensive introductions and here translated into English for the first time, these extraordinary texts are based on eyewitness testimony of the conquests. They contain much detail for the military historian, including data on operational tactics and the ideology of Christian holy war in the twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. Literary historians too will be delighted by the astonishing styles deployed, demonstrating considerable authorial flamboyance, flair and innovation. While they are likely written by Goswin of Bossut, the search for authorship yields an impressive array of literary friends and associates, including James of Vitry, Thomas of Cantimpré, Oliver of Paderborn and Caesarius of Heisterbach.

Book Stephen Harding

Download or read book Stephen Harding written by Claudio Stercal and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Stephen Harding, the third abbot of Citeaux, is also an elusive historical figure. English by birth and a monk of Sherborne Abbey before the Norman Conquest, he journeyed to France and Rome before reentering monastic life at Molesme, only to leave with the founders of the New Monastery at Citeaux. From 1108 to 1133, the period of the first Cistercian expansion, he served as abbot and, some say, the formative genius behind the Cistercian Order. In this slender volume, Claudio Stercal gathers together all the documents that can with certainty be attributed to Stephen Harding and, by using them, creates a biography and then analyzes each in turn.'This is not a definitive study,' he writes,'but a collection of "working material'" which he presents in the hope of spurring further research on one of the most significant figures of the first decades of Cistercian history."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Illustration and Ornamentation in the Iberian Book World  1450 1800

Download or read book Illustration and Ornamentation in the Iberian Book World 1450 1800 written by Alexander S. Wilkinson and published by Library of the Written Word. This book was released on 2021-11-25 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In the early modern Iberian book world, as in the European book world more broadly, most works issuing from the presses contained some form of ornamentation. The nineteen contributions presented here cast light on these visual elements-on the production and ownership of printers' materials, and on the frequency with which these materials were exchanged and shared. A third of all items printed in the early modern Iberian world carried no imprint at all; for these items, woodblocks and engravings can assist scholars seeking to identify their place of origin or their date of publication. As importantly, decoration and illustration in early print can also reveal much about the history of the graphic arts and evolving forms of cultural representation"--
