MEDIUM AEVUM Aims to contribute to a renewal of medieval studies with particular attention to the different conceptual aspects that made up the medieval civilisation, and especially to the study of the Mediterranean area. Aims to promote reflection about the Middle Ages and the ways to approach it the period —1st part: “the past interrogated and unmasked” —; In-depth discussion of leading research themes —2nd part: “the past studied and measured” —; including the analysis of the ways of diffusion and popularising ideas and cultures —3rd part: “the past explained and recreated” —. Is offered annually as a vehicle for exchanges among medievalists all over the world, in the context of a globalised planet, stimulated by intellectual plurality, open to debate on ideas and faithful to scientific rigour. Will publish in the format of articles those texts that pass a rigorous peer-reviewed evaluation with independent and separate analyses by at least two leading experts, who are not part of the editorial board of the journal.

  • The Jewish Fifth Column in the Clergy
    PLOT AGAINST THE CHURCH: PART 4 THE JEWISH FIFTH COLUMN IN THE CLERGY By Maurice Pinay (1962) This volume includes sections IV, of Pinay's 'Plot Against the Church', which address the infiltration of the clergy by Occult secret societies. It was written before Vatican II in order to address the threat to the Church posed by the council. The book makes an excellent case using Church documents and 'Jewish histories', that the conspiracy to corrupt the Church from within has been active for over 2000 years. The long-standing conflict between occult infiltrators and Catholics has largely been ignored by Catholic historians. This is an important corrective. This version was translated from the original German and Spanish editions. Maurice Pinay is a pseudonym for the real authors, for a group of anonymous Catholic Bishops TABLE OF CONTENTS THE OCTOPUS STRANGLING CHRISTIANITY ........................................................................................ 4 ORIGIN OF THE "FIFTH COLUMN" ......................................................................................................... 6 THE FIFTH COLUMN IN ACTION .......................................................................................................... 12 JEWRY, FATHER OF THE GNOSTICS ................................................................................................... 18 THE JEW ARIUS AND HIS HERESY ..................................................................................................... 26 THE JEWS AS ALLIES OF JULIAN THE APOSTATE ..............................................................................

  • Tour Extension Itinerary – 'Western Andalucia' Overview
    Tour Extension Itinerary – ‘Western Andalucia’ 3 days/3 nights Overview Our ‘Western Andalucía’ extension takes you to the area of Andalucía near the Portuguese Border, the Cities of Jerez de la Fronter ‘Jerez’, Cadiz, Arcos de la Frontera before returning for a final night in Málaga. Day 1: JEREZ After breakfast we depart for Jerez. Famous for Sherry, Flamenco and Andalucian Horses, Jerez is the 5th largest City in Andalucia. Jerez de la Frontera, or simply Jerez, is most definitely known for its production of Sherry in the Bodegas that dot the City and from the vineyards in the surrounding countryside. Wealthy merchants built palatial mansions in the centre of the City and their Sherry & Brandy Bodegas were established close by. After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, the Vandals and the Visigoths ruled it until the Arabs conquered the area in 711. In the 11th century it briefly became the seat of an independent Taifa. Some years later 'Abdun ibn Muhammad united it with Arcos and ruled both until in 1053 it was annexed to Seville. In the 12th and 13th Centuries, when the Almohads conquered the city, Jerez underwent a period of great development, building its defence system and setting the current street layout of the old town. In 1231 the Battle of Jerez took place within the town's vicinity, Christian troops under the command of Álvaro Pérez de Castro, lord of the House of Castro and grandson of Alfonso VII, King of Castile and León, defeated the troops of the Emir Ibn Hud, despite the numerical superiority of the latter.

  • La Capacidad Militar De La Nobleza En La Frontera Con Granada
    LA CAPACIDAD MILITAR DE LA NOBLEZA EN LA FRONTERA CON GRANADA. EL EJEMPLO DE DON JUAN PONCE DE LEÓN, II CONDE DE ARCOS Y SEÑOR DE MARCHENA MANUEL ROJAS GABRIEL Universidad de Extremadura Parece bastante patente que una de las circunstancias más notable que llegó a desprenderse de la pronta correspondencia que se estableció entre el estamento nobiliario y la quebradiza y anfibológica frontera que separaba a la Corona de Castilla del emirato nazarí de Granada fue la sustancial capacidad de liderazgo que la elite aristocrática impuso sobre el resto del tejido social asentado sobre el solar fronterizo e, incluso, más allá; liderazgo este que hallaba eje y articula- ción en tomo a la figura habitualmente carismática del denominado pariente mayor, sociológicamente entendido como rol principal hacia el que confluían de manera arracimada el resto de los roles constitutivos del linaje y .del bando-linaje si la escala se aumenta. Pues bien, entre los múltiples factores a tener en cuenta para comprender esta situación netamente privilegiada se hallaban, precisamente, los tocantes a la vertiente militar, pues, según interesa ahora, no es difícil consi- derar a la franja fronteriza como un espacio geopolítico especialmente adecuado para que la nobleza desplegase las que eran sus directrices conductuales básicas. Además, esto para nada debe extrañar si se tiene en cuenta que la actividad bélica y las muy diversas cuestiones añadidas a ella emanaban y encontraban buena parte de su justo sentido en un marco donde la violencia y sus manifesta- ciones constituían el rasgo medular sobre el que, al fm y al cabo, giraban las que han sido definidas como "relaciones" castellano-granadinas.

  • Notes on the History of Commerce and Commercial Law: 2. The
    NOTES ON THE HISTORY OF COMMERCE AND COMMERCIAL LAW. 2. THE MIDDLE AGES. Three prime requisites of commerce are: (i)means of trans- port; (2) freedom of labor and exchange; (3) security. In anti- quity to obtain these conditions the struggle was a hopeless one,. though there were periods when they were more or less assured. Commercial colonies were founded in Spain by the Phoenicians in the beginnings of history;' the Rhodian fleet was a merchant marine; Athens acquired her great naval strength by a conscious political policy; military Rome played the equivocal role of de- stroyer,' pacifier and law-giver. Commerce is a complementary expression of the other material activities of society. The commerce of antiquity, relatively speak- ing, flourished at periods not because of the state of society and government but in spite of certain of their dominant characters. Means of transport were rudimentary. By land it was more perilous and burdensome than by sea. The transport of any con- siderable volume over long distances was impossible. Trans-ship- ment was always frequent. By water, the routes followed rivers and coasts. Without the compass the mariner did not dare to venture far beyond the sight of land and rarely left the enclosed seas. Freedom of labor and exchange existed only to a very limited degree. According to the theory of the ancient state the governed owed their rights to the state; the state did not owe its powers to the willingness of the governed. The liberty, industry and pro- perty of the individual were at the disposal of the state.

Los territorios que conformaban la Península Ibérica durante los siglos XIV y XV se dividían en cinco reinos, los cuales serían el embrión de los futuros estados modernos que conforman el territorio peninsular que conocemos hoy en día. Entre estos reinos encontrábamos cuatro de origen cristiano, formando sus territorios a partir de la llamada “reconquista”, mientras que el último de ellos, Granada, surgió como resultado de la desintegración de los terceros reinos de taifas en el siglo XIII, convirtiéndose en el último reducto musulmán peninsular.

  • Queen Isabella of Spain
    Isabella of Spain by William Thomas Walsh This book has a large amount of information about Jews in medieval Spain. It repudiates the works of Lea and Loeb, who seem to have established much about what people today think they know about Spanish Jews. Originally published in 1930/1 (New York: Robert M. McBride Co., xix + 515 pp.; London: Sheed & Ward, 644 pp.). Later editions (e.g., New York: Tudor Publishing Co., 2nd ed., 1938) re-wrote some passages to be a touch milder, and deleted some nasty terms like "Ritual Murder" and "Jewish Conspiracy" from the titles, but the raw info remained in all its pungency. All scans from the 1st edition text. SEE LINK TO THE WALSH/ROTH ACADEMIC BRAWL FARTHER DOWN. A sampling, both from Ch. 12: "Look at the effigies on some of those orange-tinted marble tombs in Spain. They are not the faces of yellow Tartars or brown Bushmen or black voodoo doctors. They are the faces of our own western European stock, some of them fine, noble and sensitive; such faces as you might meet in Italy, in France, in Germany, in Poland, in Great Britain or Ireland; among professional men or business men in London or New York clubs." "It is interesting to note how men under stress of circumstances shift gradually from one point of view to another, believing all the while that they are consistent." Refreshing, to see how (many) old history books used to be written. This is one excellent example. These are all the chapters or parts thereof which deal in a substantive way with the subject of Jews: Forward Chap.

  • Tour Itinerary – 'Ultimate Andalucia' Overview
    Tour Itinerary – ‘Ultimate Andalucia’ 11 days/10 nights Overview The Ultimate Andalucía tour is a comprehensive circuit tour that takes you to visit the Andalucian Cities of Granada, Cordoba, Seville, Malaga Ronda, Jerez, Cádiz, Arcos de la Frontera & Setenil de las Bodegas. You stay in high quality City Centre Hotels in each location for one or two nights accordingly. This tour is for a maximum of six guests with its own tour vehicle and Tour Leader. Day 1: ARRIVAL/MÁLAGA We collect you in Málaga from the airport, train station or local hotel and, subject to time, we take you to visit the pretty Pueblo Blanco mountain village of Mijas. The Pueblo Blancos are the white villages of Andalucia. Set high above the Costa del Sol with lovely views over the Mediterranean below, you can wander the pretty lanes with colourful trailing geraniums in bright blue pots contrasting against the white walls. Have some lunch in the shady ‘Secret Garden’ of Restaurant/Cafeteria ‘AROMA’ and maybe make some purchases from the craft stores that surround the main Plaza and down the little lanes. The quality of the leather goods in Mijas is exceptionally high. Originally founded by the Tartessians in prehistoric times, the Romans used to mine Marble from the area, calling the village Tamisa before it became a Moorish mining town Mixa which morphed later on into Mijas. The Mijas residents resisted the attacks from the Catholic Monarchs during the siege of Málaga in 1487, but after Málaga fell, the inhabitants surrendered with most being sold into slavery. A beautiful jewel of the Costa Del Sol, it sits 400m above sea level offering superb vistas all around.

ABSTRACT This thesis accompanies the digital edition of the Crónica particular de San Fernando, and includes a rationale for and an explanation of many of the implications of the decisions taken in the preparation of this edition. The edition is used as a case study for the digital editing of medieval prose in Castilian at the present time. To this end, there is an in-depth examination of the history, context and current situation of the digital editing of medieval texts, focussing specifically on prose, and in particular prose in Castilian. The text and context of the Crónica particular de San Fernando are also studied, to inform the preparation of its digital edition.
