  Abstract: Recent years have seen an increased interest in the writings of Nicole Oresme (ca. 1320–1382), a mathematician, philosopher, and theologian active in France, especially in Paris, during the second half of the fourteenth century.1 While for several decades significant results have been obtained by focusing on specific groups of texts written by him (in mathematics, economics or practical philosophy, for instance), the current state of research allows us to take a global approach to the complex world of Oresme's works. Although a complete and reliable chronology remains a desideratum for future investigations, Oresme's early Latin commentaries are currently gaining more attention as a starting point for a better ...

  Abstract: Matilda de Bailleul (d. 1212) was the daughter of Euphemia of St. Omer and Baldwin I, castellan of Bailleul in Flanders.1 She died a childless widow; we know nothing about her husband. Her maternal grandfather was William II, castellan of St. Omer, a position held by members of the family for over 150 years since 1105.2 Her maternal uncle, Osto, was a Templar who was based in Flanders and then England.3 There is no direct evidence explaining Matilda's move ca. 1174 to Wherwell, a Benedictine abbey in Hampshire that was relatively prosperous throughout its history and was "almost certainly" founded in the tenth century by Queen Ælfthryth, wife of King Edgar.4 However, both Wherwell and Matilda had numerous ...

  Abstract: When the author of this study first began work on this topic over twenty years ago, prophecy and eschatology were considered peripheral to the study of the crusade movement. Since then, interest in the intersection of prophecy, eschatology, pious warfare, and intercultural negotations has intensified, resulting in the publication of major studies on the subject.1 Yet many otherwise excellent biographies of Frederick II persist in downplaying the impact of prophecy on his crusades, with, in some notable instances, the exception of Frederick II's two coronations (in 1215 and 1220), his triumphal entry into Jerusalem (1229), and the crucial role prophecy and eschatological expectations played during later ...

  Abstract: Augustinus Favaroni was born in Rome in 1360, entered the studium of the Augustinian Hermits at Bologna in 1384, and was bacchalarius formatus in 1389, after completing his lectures on Peter Lombard's Sentences in 1388–1389. This date is confirmed by the colophon at the end of his first Principium on fol. 159ra (qui legit Bononie 1388o et 89o). In 1392 he became a Master of Theology and in 1398 he is still recorded as magister regens in Bologna.1 After finishing his studies, Favaroni was very active in various Augustinian studia in Italy (Bologna, Lecce, and Perugia), during which period he produced several treatises and a commentary on the Apocalypse.2 By 1416, he was teaching theology in Florence and during this ...

  Abstract: Hace ya mucho tiempo que el preámbulo viene siendo objeto de compilación y estudio en trabajos de naturaleza diversa. A pesar de que suele subrayarse el nulo efecto jurídico de estas consideraciones generales que se sitúan en la parte inicial de muchos documentos, son numerosas las investigaciones que los han abordado desde la perspectiva diplomática. Con ello su carácter retórico, por encima de la habitual crítica a su escasa originalidad, ha motivado también otros estudios que abundan en su aspecto ideológico o literario, y lo utilizan como vector de influencias culturales y testimonio de la cosmovisión de sus autores.En la Península Ibérica los ejemplos de su empleo son tempranos. Se han reconocido expresivos ... Read More

  Abstract: How is history related to wealth' In the late 1260s after an extended period of exile in France, the famous notary and teacher of Dante, Brunetto Latini, brought his encyclopedic Tresor back to his hometown of Florence. In the work's opening lines, he informs his readers that the book is called the Tresor (The Treasure) becausejust as the lord who wishes to amass things of great value—not only for his own delight, but to increase his power and assure his estate in [times of] both war and peace—places, into one small space, the most precious jewels that he can according to his good intentions, so too, in the same way, the body of this book is composed of wisdom, that which is extracted from all the subjects of ...

  Abstract: "Oh you who pass along the way, pay attention, and see if there is any grief like my grief."1In the Middle Ages, many writers turned to the poetry of the Old Testament Book of Lamentations in order to write of sorrow, grief, despair, loss, and lamentation. It was a lament of many voices: its author was Jeremiah, his narrator a suffering woman, his theme a personified Jerusalem now destroyed. The book was popular because it provided a traditional, ready template for a narrative about loss. Yet it was also important because writers of history continued to find the themes and questions it raised helpful for understanding the experiences of the people they wrote about. One line in particular attracted attention and ... Read More
