Turnhout Brepols 2007. Hardback, XII+318 p., 1 b/w ill., 2 b/w tables, 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503516967. The contributors to this book examine the diverse roles played by moral virtues in the political writing of the Later Middle Ages. Medieval political thought has a long tradition of scholarship, and its ethical dimension has always received sustained attention. This volume specifically concentrates on the meaning and function of virtues in a political context, a theme which has thus far been neglected. The authors deal with Latin texts (occasionally in combination with vernacular ones) from the thirteenth to fifteenth centuries that define, legitimize, or criticize secular rule by using catalogues of virtues, originating from ancient philosophy as well as Christian moral theology. The contributions discuss various aspects related to this theme, such as the relation between the virtues of rulers and general moral precepts; the tension between secular or philosophical perspectives on virtue and… Read More

Turnhout Brepols 2013. Hardback, approx. X+386 p., 10 b/w ill., 3 b/w line art, 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503531571. The essays in this collection present new research into a variety of questions on birth, childhood, adolescence, adulthood, middle age, and old age, ordered in a more or less chronological manner according to the lifecycle. The volume exposes attitudes and representations of the lifecycle from the Anglo-Saxon period to the end of the Middle Ages as being full of inconsistencies as well as definitive categories, and of variation and stasis. This attests to the fact that medieval conceptions and representations of the stages of life and their interrelationships are much more nuanced and less idealized than is usually credited. Medieval conceptual, mental, artistic, cultural, and sociological processes are scrutinized using various approaches and methods that cross disciplinary boundaries. What is emphasized across the volume is that there were varying, context-dependent rhythms of… Read More

Turnhout Brepols 2003. Hardback, XII+340 p., 8 b/w ill., 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503522074. This volume addresses the current fashion for research on the family and domesticity in the past. It draws together work from various disciplines - historical, art-historical and literary - with their very different source materials and from a broad geographical area, including some countries - such as Croatia and Poland - which are not usually considered in standard text books on the medieval family. This volume considers the various affective relationships within and around the family and the manner in which those relationships were regulated and ritualized in more public arenas. Despite their disparate approaches and geographical spread, these essays share many thematic concerns; the ideologies which structured gender roles, inheritance rights, incest law and the ethics of domestic violence, for example, are all considered here. This collection originates from the Leeds IMC in 2001 when the special strand… Read More

Turnhout Brepols 1999. Paperback, 304 p., 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503509631. This volume examines rural marriage patterns in the long run, relating the patterns to changing economic conditions in the North Sea area, from c. 1400 to the present. The history of marriage in Western Europe, because of its peculiarities when viewed in a global setting, compels attention. This volume examines rural marriage patterns in the long run, relating these to changing economic conditions in the North Sea area, from c. 1400 to the present. More than thirty years after Hajnal's path-breaking publication it presents a state of the art as regards the study of the European Marriage Pattern in Ireland, Scotland, England, Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and Scandinavia. By examining different forms of rural economy such as peasant farming, capitalist farming, prot-industry and other systems of production with differing implications for marriage and family formation, demographic and economic mechanisms emerge more… Read More

Turnhout Brepols 2007. Hardback, XCI+457 p., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503049359. Ce troisieme volume acheve l'edition d'une oeuvre inedite de Florus de Lyon, son commentaire de saint Paul emprunte a douze Peres de l'Eglise. Alors que les deux premiers volumes ont ete consacres a des Peres bien connus, a savoir Cyprien, Hilaire et Ambroise, ce troisieme volume fait appel a des auteurs moins frequents tel Avite de Vienne, Fulgence de Ruspe, Ephrem latin, Pacien de Barcelone, Theophile d'Alexandrie et autres. Tel un panorama de l'epoque patristique, ce volume presente un echantillonnage qui n'est pas sans interet et qui revele un aspect inhabituel et attachant de la recherche medievale. Languages: Latin, French.

Turnhout Brepols 2006. Hardback, LXVII+316 p., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503049335. C'est le deuxieme volume de la collection dite des Douze Peres. Dans ce volume les extraits des oeuvres d'Ambroise, choisis par Florus, n'occupent pas moins de 70 folios du manuscrit de la Grande Chartreuse, le seul temoin de ce florilege et alignent 411 pericopes. Cette importance n'avait pas echappe au copiste du manuscrit de Sainte Marie des Trois Fontaines qui recopiait l'oeuvre de Florus: il met en premier l'oeuvre d'Ambroise et relegue en fin de volume les oeuvres de Cyprien et de Hilaire (CCCM 193), n'hesitant pas a bouleverser l'ordre de la collection. Languages: Latin, French.

Turnhout Brepols 2008. Hardback, X+267 p., 10 b/w ill., 25 b/w line art, 160 x 240 mm. ISBN 9782503526157. In recent decades, historians attempting to understand the transition from the world of late antiquity with its unitary imperial system to the medieval Europe of separate kingdoms have become increasingly concerned with the role of early medieval gentes, or peoples, in the end of the former and the constitution of the latter. Eleven specialists examine here the role of ethnic identity in the formation of medieval polities on the periphery of the Frankish world in the eighth through eleventh centuries. In particular, they explore the intertwined issues of ethnic identity and state formation in Scandinavia and in the western and southern Slavic regions, areas in which the new approaches to the history of ethnicity have but little penetrated traditional scholarship. They ask to what extent common identities assisted in the consolidation and creation of early medieval kingdoms and to what extent… Read More

La serie des ?« Humanistes du bassin des Carpates ?» comptera cinq volumes dans la collection ?« Europa Humanistica ?». Ce premier volume presente 17 traducteurs et editeurs de la Bible.

Turnhout Brepols 1997. Hardback, LXXXVIII+531 p., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503045214. The Dragmaticon, William of Conches' major systematic treatise on natural philosophy, was probably written in Normandy between 1144 and 1148. It was copied and widely circulated in no less than 80 manuscripts for more than 400 years. It was even translated into Catalan in the fifteenth century. The editio princeps, published in 1567 in Strasburg by Josiah Rihel and reprinted in 1967, was prepared by the Italian physician and humanist Guglielmo Gratarolo, who used just one manuscript he bought in Padua, then collated against another owned by Rihel, and often 'emended' (sometimes quite arbitrarily). The present edition, by another Italian, a philologist and classicist turned medievalist, provides for the first time a critical text, based on 40 selected manuscripts. A detailed introduction informs on William of Conches' works and career, as well as title, dating, aims, and the manuscript transmission of… Read More

Brepols 2024. Hardback, cxxxii + 376 pages, Size:155 x 245 mm, Illustrations:6 tables b/w., Language(s):Latin, English. ISBN 9782503607252. Summary This is the first critical edition of a major theological work by a Cistercian from a medieval university: the questions on book I of the Sentences by James of Eltville (Jacobus de Altavilla, d. 1392), monk and later abbot of the majestic Eberbach Abbey, the filming location of many of the scenes in The Name of the Rose. The product of bachelor lectures delivered in 1369-1370 at the magnificent Bernardins in Paris just south of Notre-Dame across the Seine, James' Lectura in libros Sententiarum survives in almost two dozen manuscripts. Based on a complete collation of all the witnesses, the editio princeps provides access to a text that illuminates a relatively dark period in the history of scholasticism, portrays the status quaestionis on many issues in philosophical theology between the Black Death and the Great Schism, and illustrates the… Read More

Turnhout Brepols 2011. Paperback, 304 p., 173 b/w ill., 220 x 280 mm. ISBN 9782503534084. Convertie au christianisme au debut du IVe siecle, la Georgie ancienne, qui a souvent ete une frontiere religieuse et culturelle entre l'Asie et l'Europe, a laisse beaucoup de monuments remarquables. Neanmoins, malgre sa qualite et sa richesse exceptionnelles, l'art chretien georgien est longtemps reste meconnu. De fait, si les peintures murales et l'architecture des eglises ont attire d'assez longue date l'attention des chercheurs, leurs amenagements et dispositifs liturgiques ont ete a peu pres completement passes sous silence. Pourtant ces pieces uniques representent une part considerable du patrimoine georgien medieval et constituent un temoignage archeologique fort important pour cerner non seulement la tradition artistique, mais aussi les rites et les coutumes de l'Orient chretien. L'ouvrage revele un materiel archeologique parfois inexplore jusqu'ici, et souvent inedit.… Read More

Brepols 2024. Hardback, 460 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:10 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503606026. Summary Published anonymously in 1733, Memoirs of the Twentieth Century is one of the earliest futuristic novels known in Anglophone and Euro-American literature. It foregrounds an acceleration of history brought about by an increasing degree of global interconnectedness, and the exclusion of prophetism and astrology as credible ways to know the future. The work of Samuel Madden, an Irish writer and philanthropist of Whig sympathies, it consists of a collection of diplomatic letters composed in the 1990s, which the narrator claims were brought to him from the time to come by a supernatural entity. Through these correspondences, twentieth-century world scenarios are spread out before the reader, in which British naval power rules the waves and international commerce, while the transnational scheming of the Jesuits threatens the independence of weaker European courts. This book - which… Read More
