Book Historical Memory and Clerical Activity in Medieval Spain and Portugal

Download or read book Historical Memory and Clerical Activity in Medieval Spain and Portugal written by Peter Linehan and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fourth Variorum collection of articles by Peter Linehan comprises items largely from the past decade. The studies represent further investigation of themes broached in earlier works, in particular the latest report on the movements of Cardinal John of Abbeville, and the related subjects of historiography and historians, the interplay of history and government, and aspects of sacral monarchy. Articles on Zamora's frustrated legal history and Zamora's cardinal extend the Castilian theme across the territorial frontier into the kingdom of Portugal, and two other items explore English ramifications and developments in papal procedures.

Book Mozarabs in Medieval and Early Modern Spain

Download or read book Mozarabs in Medieval and Early Modern Spain written by Richard Hitchcock and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The setting of this volume is the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages, where Christianity and Islam co-existed side by side as the official religions of Muslim al-Andalus on the one hand, and the Christian kingdoms in the north of the peninsula on the other. Its purpose is to examine the meaning of the word 'Mozarab' and the history and nature of the people called by that name; it represents a synthesis of the author's many years of research and publication in this field. Richard Hitchcock first sets out to explain what being a non-Muslim meant in al-Andalus, both in the higher echelons of society and at a humbler level. The terms used by Arab chroniclers, when examined carefully, suggest a lesser preoccupation with purely religious values than hitherto appreciated. Mozarabism in León and Toledo, two notably distinct phenomena, are then considered at length, and there are two chapters exploring the issues that arose, firstly when Mozarabs were relocated in twelfth-century Aragón, and secondly, in sixteenth-century Toledo, when they were striving to retain their identity.

Book The Gothispanic and Early Mozarabic Rite

Download or read book The Gothispanic and Early Mozarabic Rite written by Dom Eduardo and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-13 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A practical introduction and guide to the Gothispanic and Early Mozarabic Rite which materialized in the Gothic Kingdoms of Toledo and Oviedo from the sixth through the tenth centuries. This treatise rescues many essential details which have been otherwise left out in the texts and historiography concerning the Mozarabic Rite after the reforms undertaken by the Cardinal Cisneros in the 15th century. It showcases many of the primordial peculiarities which distinguish it from the now predominant Roman Rite: from architectural forms to objects used in the mass, liturgical colours and vesture. Because of its formative years take place before the Great Schism, it also exposes a fundamental link between the Greek and Latin traditions, as well as commonalities with the churches of Africa and Asia. The book has over 50 illustrations.

Book A Constellation of Authority

Download or read book A Constellation of Authority written by Kyle C. Lincoln and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2023-03-15 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the long reign of Alfonso VIII, Castilian bishops were crusaders, castellans, cathedral canons, and collegiate officers, and they served as powerful intermediaries between the pope and the king of Castile. In A Constellation of Authority, Kyle C. Lincoln traces the careers of a septet of these bishops and uses this history to fill in much of what really happened in thirteenth-century Castile. The relationships that local prelates cultivated with Alfonso VIII and the Castilian royal family existed in tension with how they related to the reigning pope. Drawing on diocesan archives, monastic collections, and chronicles, Lincoln reconstructs the complex negotiations and navigations these bishops undertook to maintain the balance among the papal and royal agendas and their own interests. Lincoln examines the bishops' ties to crusades and political influence, the growth of canon and Roman law, religious and church reform, and the canonization of local leaders. In the process, he makes the case that the medieval past is best illuminated by the combined luminescence of a “constellation of authority” represented, at least in part, by a conglomerate of bishops. Through seven case studies, each examining a prelate in his individual historical context, A Constellation of Authority improves our understanding of the politics of thirteenth-century Castile and provides an important foundation for further consideration of the ties between Castile and the broader European medieval world. It will appeal to medieval Hispanists and historians of the medieval church and episcopacy.

Book excerpt: "The last great work of the age of reason, the final instance when all human knowledge could be presented with a single point of view ... Unabashed optimism, and unabashed racism, pervades many entries in the 11th, and provide its defining characteristics ... Despite its occasional ugliness, the reputation of the 11th persists today because of the staggering depth of knowledge contained with its volumes. It is especially strong in its biographical entries. These delve deeply into the history of men and women prominent in their eras who have since been largely forgotten - except by the historians, scholars"-- The Guardian, https://www.theguardian.com/books/booksblog/2012/apr/10/encyclopedia-britannica-11th-edition.
