Entre todos ellos cabe resaltar el inestimable apoyo de la Dr. Elena Torregaray Pagola desde el inicio de este trabajo, e incluso desde los años finales de la licenciatura. Su optimismo, sus consejos, su inagotable paciencia y su plena dedicación a la hora de resolver dudas e inconvenientes que han ido apareciendo a lo largo de estos años han sido fundamentales en el trayecto recorrido hasta ahora, ya que con todo ello me ha ayudado a desarrollarme no sólo como investigador sino también como persona. Estoy seguro de que por mucho que me esfuerce jamás podré compensar a la profesora Torregaray por todo lo que ha hecho por mí y por ello, le estaré eternamente agradecido. Aunque sea imposible mostrar mis agradecimientos a todo aquél o aquélla que ha aportado de una u otra forma su granito de arena a este proyecto, debo admitir que siempre estaré en deuda con el Dr. Greg Woolf por la estupenda acogida que me hizo en St. Andrews y por compartir conmigo diferentes opiniones que han sido vitales en el desarrollo de esta investigación. Asimismo, quisiera reconocer la ayuda prestada por el arqueólogo Joxean Mujika por mostrarme su entera disposición ante cualquier dificultad que pudiera hallar durante estos años, así como por haberme permitido participar en algunas campañas arqueológicas y por hacer posible mi consulta de los fondos del depósito del Museo Arqueológico BIBAT, donde conocí a Jaione Agirre y Paquita Sáenz de Urturi, unas personas increíblemente amables que no dudaron en guiarme y en ofrecerme todas las facilidades posibles dentro del museo. Entre el personal de la Universidad, merecen una especial mención Denis Álvarez y Amalia Emborujo que, ante mi inexperiencia como profesor, me aconsejaron y orientaron ayudándome todo lo posible durante el periodo que impartí docencia. Asimismo, agradezco a Isidora Emborujo, Pedro Redondo y Alex Martínez por sus ánimos e interés y a todos los miembros del departamento, incluidos los doctorandos y becarios de la Facultad, entre los cuales quiero resaltar al doctorando y amigo Zuhaitz Irañeta con quien he mantenido y espero mantener conversaciones interminables que en ocasiones han sido motivo de inspiración. Por último, pero no por ello menos importante, debo reconocer que esta tesis doctoral no hubiese sido posible sin el

  • The Monastic Rules of Visigothic Iberia: a Study of Their Text and Language
    THE MONASTIC RULES OF VISIGOTHIC IBERIA: A STUDY OF THEIR TEXT AND LANGUAGE By NEIL ALLIES A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Theology and Religion College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham July 2009 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged.

Abstract This thesis is concerned with the monastic rules that were written in seventh century Iberia and the relationship that existed between them and their intended, contemporary, audience. It aims to investigate this relationship from three distinct, yet related, perspectives: physical, literary and philological. After establishing the historical and historiographical background of the texts, the thesis investigates firstly the presence of a monastic rule as a physical text and its role in a monastery and its relationship with issues of early medieval literacy. It then turns to look at the use of literary techniques and structures in the texts and their relationship with literary culture more generally at the time. Finally, the thesis turns to issues of the language that the monastic rules were written in and the relationship between the spoken and written registers not only of their authors, but also of their audiences.

  • Selected Ancestors of the Chicago Rodger's
    Selected Ancestors of the Chicago Rodger’s Volume I: Continental Ancestors Before Hastings David Anderson March 2016 Charlemagne’s Europe – 800 AD For additional information, please contact David Anderson at: [email protected] 508 409 8597 Stained glass window depicting Charles Martel at Strasbourg Cathedral. Pepin shown standing Pepin le Bref Baldwin II, Margrave of Flanders 2 Continental Ancestors Before Hastings Saints, nuns, bishops, brewers, dukes and even kings among them David Anderson March 12, 2016 Abstract Early on, our motivation for studying the ancestors of the Chicago Rodger’s was to determine if, according to rumor, they are descendants of any of the Scottish Earls of Bothwell. We relied mostly on two resources on the Internet: Ancestry.com and Scotlandspeople.gov.uk. We have been subscribers of both. Finding the ancestral lines connecting the Chicago Rodger’s to one or more of the Scottish Earls of Bothwell was the most time consuming and difficult undertaking in generating the results shown in a later book of this series of three books. It shouldn’t be very surprising that once we found Earls in Scotland we would also find Kings and Queens, which we did. The ancestral line that connects to the Earls of Bothwell goes through Helen Heath (1831-1902) who was the mother and/or grandmother of the Chicago Rodger’s She was the paternal grandmother of my grandfather, Alfred Heath Rodger. Within this Heath ancestral tree we found four lines of ancestry without any evident errors or ambiguities. Three of those four lines reach just one Earl of Bothwell, the 1st, and the fourth line reaches the 1st, 2nd and 3rd.

  • The Gallic War - Book Iii (56 Bc)
    JULIUS CAESAR (GAIUS JULIUS CAESAR, 100-44 BC) THE GALLIC WAR - BOOK III (56 BC) TRANSLATED BY W.A. MCDEVITTE AND W.S. BOHN ________________________________________ DE BELLO GALLICO - LIBER TERTIUS § 3:1. When Caesar was setting out for Italy, he sent Servius Galba with the twelfth legion and part of the cavalry, against the Nantuates, the Veragri, and Seduni, who extend from the territories of the Allobroges, and the lake of Geneva, and the River Rhone to the top of the Alps. The reason for sending him was, that he desired that the pass along the Alps, through which [the Roman] merchants had been accustomed to travel with great danger, and under great imposts, should be opened. He permitted him, if he thought it necessary, to station the legion in these places, for the purpose of wintering. Galba having fought some successful battles and stormed several of their forts, upon embassadors being sent to him from all parts and hostages given and a peace concluded, determined to station two cohorts among the Nantuates, and to winter in person with the other cohorts of that legion in a village of the Veragri, which is called Octodurus; and this village being situated in a valley, with a small plain annexed to it, is bounded on all sides by very high mountains. As this village was divided into two parts by a river, he granted one part of it to the Gauls, and assigned the other, which had been left by them unoccupied, to the cohorts to winter in. He fortified this [latter] part with a rampart and a ditch.

  • Law, Liturgy, and Sacred Space in Medieval Catalonia and Southern France, 800-1100
    Law, Liturgy, and Sacred Space in Medieval Catalonia and Southern France, 800-1100 Adam Christopher Matthews Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2021 1 ©2021 Adam Christopher Matthews All Rights Reserved 2 Abstract Law, Liturgy, and Sacred Space in Medieval Catalonia and Southern France, 800-1100 Adam Christopher Matthews With the collapse of the Visigothic kingdom, the judges of Catalonia and southern France worked to keep the region‘s traditional judicial system operable. Drawing on records of judicial proceedings and church dedications from the ninth century to the end of the eleventh, this dissertation explores how judges devised a liturgically-influenced court strategy to invigorate rulings. They transformed churches into courtrooms. In these spaces, changed by merit of the consecration rite, community awe for the power infused within sacred space could be utilized to achieve consensus around the legitimacy of dispute outcomes. At the height of a tribunal, judges brought litigants and witnesses to altars, believed to be thresholds of Heaven, and compelled them to authenticate their testimony before God and his saints. Thus, officials supplemented human means of enforcement with the supernatural powers permeating sanctuaries. This strategy constitutes a hybridization of codified law and the belief in churches as real sacred spaces, a conception that emerged from the Carolingian liturgical reforms of the ninth century. In practice, it provided courts with a means to enact the mandates from the Visigothic Code and to foster stability. The result was a flexible synthesis of law, liturgy, and sacred space that was in many cases capable of harnessing spiritual and community pressure in legal proceedings.
