Download or read book Canon Pietro Casola s Pilgrimage to Jerusalem written by M. Margaret Newett and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canon Pietro Casola's Pilgrimage to Jerusalem: In the Year 1494 I hope the following itinerary may prove nearly as interesting and attractive in the English Version as it is in the quaint medieval Italian, in which Canon Pietro Casola recorded the events of his momentous voyage, for the amusement and instruction of his Milanese friends, more than four hundred years ago. Those who desire to know more about the writer and the friends with whom the chances of the journey brought him in contact, will find, in the Introduction and the Notes, what the dusty shelves of the Archives could furnish concerning them. For those who care to learn more than Casola tells about the conditions in which medieval pilgrims carried out their pious purpose, I have traced, as far as possible, the legislation of the Venetian Republic with regard to the pilgrim traffic, from early times to the last law on the Statute book. It has been a labour of love and yet disappointing. So few documents, comparatively speaking, have survived the destructive influences of time and the many great fires which devastated the Venetian State rerecords. Enough remains, however, to enable us to form a clear idea of the intentions of the legislators, and of the ceaseless war they had to wage, against the egoistical tendencies of human nature, in the effort to carry them into effect.

This book was released on 2021-12-28 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The open access publication of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation. In Shrines in a Fluid Space: The Shaping of New Holy Sites in the Ionian Islands, the Peloponnese and Crete under Venetian Rule (14th-16th Centuries), Argyri Dermitzaki reconstructs the devotional experiences within the Greek realm of the Venetian Stato da Mar of Western European pilgrims sailing to Jerusalem.

She scrutinises travelogues in conjunction with archaeological, visual and historical evidence and offers a study of the cultic phenomena and sites invested with exceptional meaning at the main ports of call of the pilgrims’ galleys in the Ionian Sea, the Peloponnese and Crete.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Staging Holiness. The Case of Hospitaller Rhodes (ca. 1309-1522) Sofia Zoitou offers a study of the history of relic collections, devotional rituals and sites invested with special meaning in Rhodes, during a time when the island became one of the most frequented ports of call for ships carrying pilgrims from Venice to the Holy Land. Scrutinizing late medieval travel reports by pilgrims from all over Europe along with extant historical, archaeological, visual and material evidence, Sofia Zoitou traces the various forms of the Rhodian cultic sites' evolution and perception, ultimately considered as an overall artistic strategy for the staging of the sacred"--

Book Marriage  Money and Divorce in Medieval Islamic Society

Download or read book Marriage Money and Divorce in Medieval Islamic Society written by Yossef Rapoport and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2005-04-21 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High rates of divorce, often taken to be a modern and western phenomenon, were also typical of medieval Islamic societies. By pitting these high rates of divorce against the Islamic ideal of marriage,Yossef Rapoport radically challenges usual assumptions about the legal inferiority of Muslim women and their economic dependence on men. He argues that marriages in late medieval Cairo, Damascus and Jerusalem had little in common with the patriarchal models advocated by jurists and moralists. The transmission of dowries, women's access to waged labour, and the strict separation of property between spouses made divorce easy and normative, initiated by wives as often as by their husbands. This carefully researched work of social history is interwoven with intimate accounts of individual medieval lives, making for a truly compelling read. It will be of interest to scholars of all disciplines concerned with the history of women and gender in Islam.
