Therefore, I must content myself by offering special gratitude towards the following and offering my apologies towards any whose names I have omitted. Rest assured that your help is remembered and cherished. First, to my dissertation readers, Rachel Fulton Brown, Susan Schreiner, and especially Willemien Otten, I owe a boundless debt. Your scholarship inspires me, your teaching has nurtured me, and the patience and kindness with which you guided me through this process can never be repaid. Thank you. So too do I thank the other scholars whose criticisms, encouragement, and models have driven me to become a better thinker and a better man, especially the fellows of the Martin Marty Center and the participants in the Medieval Studies Workshop. Special thanks also to Robert Porwoll, for organizing so many conference panels and allowing me to tag along, to Wanda Zemler-Cizewski, for sharing her always insightful research on Honorius, and to Jason Cather, my great friend, who never fails to help me see the world in a new way. I also must thank my parents, Jim and Pixie, whose support and love for me has never wavered. My greatest hope is that my words are worthy of that support. Finally, to my wife, Lindsay. There is not a single word in this dissertation that would have been possible without you. The only words I have to offer in return are: I love you. iv Abstract This dissertation examines the thought of Honorius Augustodunensis with special attention to his understanding of creation and to his pedagogical method. Honorius was a popularizer, a pedagogue, and a talented author notable not only for his success in appealing to a wide medieval audience, but also for his synthesis of a bewildering variety of sources into simple, easily memorized forms which were used in daily pastoral care. He represents a vital and important strand of thought, centered on creation and the liturgy, which profoundly shaped the society of the Middle Ages. As Honorius left us with virtually no biographical information, my investigation begins by drawing out his character through an examination of the few biographical tidbits that he does provide—that he was a reforming priest and schoolmaster. From there, I explore his use of sources, particularly his unique appropriation of the thought of John Scottus Eriugena. I then detail Honorius’s theology of creation and contemplation, noting that the core idea which animates his work is a vision of the cosmos as a harmonious and beautiful salvific engine that inexorably draws humanity back towards its creator. I follow with a study of Honorius’s authorial methods—his use of dialogue, rhyme, and ekphrasis—arguing that these tools are a concrete manifestation of his theology, intended to shape his readers’ memories in order to enable them to attain contemplative vision. Finally, I consider the underlying harmony and unity of his catalog, allowing a portrait of the man to emerge from his words. With this portrait, we see that Honorius is a profoundly incarnational thinker, one who understands pedagogy as the key to the salvation of the individual and of the cosmos as a whole. It is a striking vision, yet the very act of making it explicit led to the erosion of the unity that sustained it. Honorius set the stage for the intellectual transformations of the twelfth century and beyond, yet his own vision v faded away, as did his identity. A victim of his own success, but a window for us into the intellectual ferment of the twelfth century. vi Chapter I - Discipulus, Scholasticus, Presbyter, Inclusus Despite an expansive and extremely popular catalog of works, Honorius Augustodunensis remains a mystery. Even to his contemporaries, Honorius was an author defined largely by his words, rather than his life. They cite his autobiographical remarks, list his works, and move on, showing little to no awareness of the person who lay behind those works. He is defined by and obscured within the text he produced, an outcome which may be precisely what he desired, but which has undoubtedly contributed to the benign neglect that plagues the contemporary study of his works. How are we to discuss an author who resists any attempt to situate him amongst his peers or among the dominant schools and intellectual currents of his era? Certainly, the early part of his career was marked by a desire for anonymity. In the Elucidarium—the first and most popular of his works, a handbook of answers to common theological questions—he writes in the preface that “I desired my name be hidden in silence, lest consuming envy order its own to neglect a useful work through neglect.”1 There was perhaps good reason to seek refuge from the venenoso dente of the envious, as quite a few of Honorius’s positions had the potential to generate opprobrium. 2 He was a vociferous advocate of reform, railing extensively against unworthy clerics, married priests, uneducated monks and simoniac bishops. All of whom might take exception to his invective, particularly when it verged on suggesting that they were unable to perform the sacraments. He campaigned vigorously for the rights of the Church against secular authority, fanning the flames of controversy in an era plagued by the struggle between ecclesiastical and secular authority. His theological positions 1 Nomen autem meum ideo volui silentio contegi, ne invidia tabescens suis juberet utile opus contemnendo negligi, Honorius Augustodunensis, Elucidarium, in L'Elucidarium et les Lucidaires,

Young __________________________________ John Van Engen, Director Graduate Program in Medieval Studies Notre Dame, Indiana September 2011 © Copyright by John D. Young 2011 All rights reserved NEIGHBORS, PARTNERS, ENEMIES: JEWS AND THE MONASTERIES OF GERMANY IN THE HIGH MIDDLE AGES Abstract by John D. Young German-speaking lands in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries were home to the largest Jewish communities north of the Alps and Pyrenees and thus constituted key locations for Christian-Jewish interaction. This dissertation examines the monasteries of Germany—the primary centers of intellectual and cultural production in the high medieval Empire—as loci for that interaction. It explores both the social/economic and the cultural aspect of contact between monks and Jews. In the process, it challenges traditional interpretations of Christian-Jewish relations and helps to fill in the picture of the lives and activities of monks in this period. The study proceeds in three parts. Part one, comprising the first three chapters, examines the political context wherein Jews and monks interacted before investigating evidence of contact between Jews and monks in the social and economic spheres. This evidence demonstrates that Jewish communities and monasteries occupied similar John D. Young political positions in this society—due to their mutual reliance on the institution of privilege—and that they engaged frequently in business dealings with each other.

  • Explaining Religious Change in Medieval and Early Modern Europe
    a Migrations of the Holy: Explaining Religious Change in Medieval and Early Modern Europe Alexandra Walsham University of Cambridge Cambridge, United Kingdom How do we conceptualize and explain religious change in medieval and early modern Europe without perpetuating distorting paradigms inherited from the very era of the past that is the subject of our study? How can we do justice to historical development over time without resorting to linear grand narratives that have their intellectual origins in the very movements that we seek to comprehend? In one way or another, this challenging question has inspired all my published work to date, which has focused on the ways in which early mod- ern society adapted to the religious revolutions that unfolded before it. My work has explored the ambiguities, anomalies, and ironies that accompany dramatic moments of ideological and cultural rupture. It has sought to bal- ance recognition of the decisive transformations wrought by the Protestant and Catholic Reformations with awareness of the complexities and contra- dictions that characterized their evolution and entrenchment in practice. It has been marked by a consuming interest in the currents of continuity that tempered, mediated, and even facilitated the upheavals of the early mod- ern era. One consequence of this preoccupation with analyzing how and why cultures are held in tension and suspension during critical phases of transition is that I have been very much less effective in acknowledging and accounting for religious change itself. This is my Achilles’ heel as a historian, and one that I share with a number of other historians of my generation.

Abstract The aim of this thesis is to analyse the iconographic elements in large-scale representations of the Last Judgement in late medieval France, c. 1380 – c. 1520. The study begins by examining the sudden surge of the subject in question that occurred in the second half of the fifteenth century and its iconographic evolution across geographical regions in France. Numerous depictions of the Last Judgement and iconographic differences have prompted speculation concerning its role in society.

  • Music, Myth, and Metaphysics in Twelfth-Century Cosmology
    Music, Myth, and Metaphysics: Harmony in Twelfth-Century Cosmology and Natural Philosophy by Andrew James Hicks A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto c Copyright by Andrew James Hicks (2012) ABSTRACT Music, Myth, and Metaphysics: Harmony in Twelfth-Century Cosmology and Natural Philosophy Andrew James Hicks Doctor of Philosophy, 2012 Centre for Medieval Studies University of Toronto This study engages a network of music, myth, and metaphysics within late-ancient and twelfth- century music theory and cosmology. It traces the development, expansion, and demise of a (natural-) philosophical harmonic speculation that stems largely from an a priori commitment to a harmonic cosmology with its deepest roots in Plato’s Timaeus. It argues that music theory not only allowed twelfth-century thinkers to conceptualize the fabric of the universe, but it also provided a hermeneu- tic tool for interpreting the ancient and late-ancient texts that offered detailed theories of the world’s construction. The twin goals of this study are thus philosophical and musicological: firstly and philosophically, to analyze and re-assert the importance of musical speculation in the writings of the self-styled physici, who probed the physical world and its metaphysical foundations during the ‘Twelfth-Century Renaissance’; secondly and musicologically, to document the sources and scope of this musical speculation and to situate it within the larger tradition of ‘speculative music theory.’ The first part of the thesis (chapters one and two) disentangles the knotty question of sources for and connections between the late-ancient texts (by Calcidius, Macrobius, and Boethius) that form the background of twelfth-century thought, and it sketches the proper domain of musical thought by tracing the expansion of music’s role in quadrivial and natural-philosophical contexts from late- ancient encyclopedism though various twelfth-century divisiones scientiae.

Parker, MA The University of Texas at Austin, 2009 SUPERVISOR: Joan Holladay The Hortus deliciarum (ca. 1170-ca. 1194, destroyed 1870) was an encyclopedic salvation history created for the canonesses at the Augustinian convent of Hohenburg by their abbess Herrad. Despite the strong role of images in the canonesses‘ reception of the manuscript, the Hortus illuminations have thus far not merited a critical consideration. In this thesis, I analyze major individual illuminations in the Hortus as well as the manuscript‘s entire structure, and I suggest that Herrad designed the Hortus around contemporary apocalyptic ideas, such as those of Joachim of Fiore, while also illustrating the importance of debate and discussion to the body Christian. The overall composition of the Hortus showed the canonesses that God has chosen to share his knowledge with them. In significant individual images, Herrad showed her canonesses that they were to exercise this divine knowledge vocally, specifically through debate. In the Hortus, debate was shown as originating with Christianity‘s Jewish desert predecessors, and the canonesses were encouraged to consider themselves as heirs of this intellectual tradition.

Heaven on Earth in Medieval Europe: Material Expressions of an Immaterial Realm by Chris Tiegreen Under the Direction of Nick Wilding, PhD A Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the College of Arts and Sciences Georgia State University 2021 ABSTRACT The religious mind in medieval Latin Christianity was thoroughly preoccupied with heaven, not only as an afterlife destination but as a present reality just beyond the reach of physical senses. But material expressions of heaven could, in connecting with the senses, usher the soul into an experience of heaven’s realities, and many ecclesiastics, philosophers, architects, artists, musicians, city leaders, and utopian visionaries thought heaven’s realities had significant implications for life on earth. As a result, social hierarchies, the geometry of structures, the intervals of sacred music, the iconography of artists, the organization of sacred and civic space, and the words and rituals of the liturgy mimicked heavenly ideals in myriad ways.

  • Anglo-Saxon Conceptions of Impairment and Disability
    Unhælu: Anglo-Saxon Conceptions of Impairment and Disability Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Karen Anne Bruce, M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee Leslie Lockett, Advisor Brenda Brueggemann Christopher A. Jones 1 Copyright by Karen Anne Bruce 2014 2 Abstract In this dissertation, I provide a reconstruction and analysis of the Anglo-Saxon conceptions of impairment and disability, as they are preserved within the textual record of the period. I develop the Old English lexeme unhælu as the most appropriate term for these conceptions, as it reflects the holism that is central to the Anglo-Saxon understanding of health and ability. Unhælu is a large and fluid category, which covers physical impairment, illness, and injury, and which takes into consideration their impact on both the body’s functionality and appearance. Importantly, it does not seem to cover mental health impairments and other similar conditions. It may perhaps be best understood in terms of Rosemarie Garland-Thomson’s notion of the “extraordinary body,” which brings together various kinds of corporeal otherness, such as impairment, deformity, monstrosity, and mutilation. Consequently, this dissertation focuses on defining the polysemous concept of unhælu, determining how the Anglo-Saxons perceived the concept, and discovering how these beliefs impacted the lives of unhal people. To achieve these aims, I employ rigorous textual and linguistic analysis, and adapt the insights of present-day disability theory to an early medieval context. In the opening chapters, I begin by establishing the linguistic and educational foundations of the Anglo-Saxon conception of unhælu.
