As such, it encompasses a period that witnessed a great deal of both crisis and renewal. As Europe emerged from the late Middle Ages, social, demographic, and economic calamities— some of them devastating in their scope and consequences—changed the way Europeans viewed their universe and their place in it. Old notions of community, spirituality, prosperity, and creativity were swept away in the successive crises of war, religious contention, and plague that seemed to dominate the fourteenth- century experience. Yet these disruptive changes allowed a fresh breeze of cul- tural renewal to blow over Europe to build upon, and in some ways to replace, the exhausted intellectual energies of the passing medieval age. Germinating at the very climax of crisis in the fourteenth century, this seed of renewal sprouted first in Italy and then, over time, spread through the Continent and was carried forth to the world in the vessels and minds of bold explorers. Thus in apparent disaster was born cultural refreshment. In loss Europeans discovered opportu- nity, and in crisis they found renewal, a rebirth of interest in ancient wisdom and human achievement that we have come to call the Renaissance. The medieval world that was visited by crisis in the fourteenth century had evolved only very slowly from the time of the collapse of the Roman Empire in the fifth century A.D. Late medieval Europe was still an overwhelmingly agrarian society, based upon the feudal relationship between protective landlord and serving or rent-paying peasant, and was still defined by the agricultural season cycle and by a “great chain of being” social order that assigned each individual his or her position in a collective Christian universe. Some medieval men and women, however, also lived in towns by the fourteenth century. There master craftsmen plied their trades as members of powerful guilds, while others traveled to regional fairs and even across Europe to more distant markets to sell goods for profit as merchants. One unifying element in this social and economic viii Introduction milieu was the Roman church, to which the vast majority of western Europeans belonged and in whose teachings they unequivocally believed. The church, di- rected from Rome by the pope through regional bishops and local parish priests, provided Christians with a rich ceremonial culture, a strict moral code, and the means (sacraments, pilgrimages, and good works) by which they might attain everlasting life in heaven after death. The influence of the church in the daily lives of late medieval believers was all-pervasive and extended not only to the organization of time (liturgical calendar) and the economy (landownership), but also to the intellectual enterprises of the age. Great universities had appeared all over western Europe during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. These institu- tions were largely staffed by Franciscan and Dominican professors who, though they spent some time teaching the seven liberal arts to their students, otherwise considered and debated the truths of universals and theology through the Scho- lastic reconciliation of faith and reason achieved by the thirteenth-century thinker Thomas Aquinas. The church also played an active role in the ordering and management of kingdoms. By the fourteenth century rulers of emerging feudal states such as France, England, Scotland, the Holy Roman Empire, Castile, Aragon, Burgundy and others sought to fulfill their God-given “priestly” duty to protect Christian society from the threats of religious heresy and Muslim encroachment. Such rulers often employed educated prelates as royal advisors, in this way allowing some of Christendom’s most able and ambitious intellects to rise to positions of great power in the service of both the Crown and the church. Late medieval Europe was, therefore, a largely agrarian, commercially and intellectually active, Christian and hierarchical world that had remained relatively insulated and had changed only very gradually during the preceding millennium. Yet, unknown to these people who lived out their lives in the cyclical certainty of an invariable Christian universe, cataclysmic changes were at hand. Unexpected as crisis may have been, when it came, it struck with vehemence at the very heart of the European experience. One of the most difficult ordeals of the late medieval age began innocently enough in 1305 when the newly elected French pope, *Clement V, decided to remain in southern France rather than return to the traditional seat of papal authority in Rome. (In this volume, an asterisk indicates a cross-reference to another entry.) This was not unusual at a time when pontiffs were often away from the Eternal City for long periods of time, but Pope Clement’s decision soon became a precedent as successive popes at first remained and then established their permanent residence in the Provenc¸al town of Avignon. So began what critics called the Babylonian Cap- tivity of the papacy, a seventy-three-year span during which the bishops of Rome, and with them directive power over the entire church, remained absent from the See of St. Peter. This crisis of papal residence and dominion violently shook the foundations of Christendom as educated and simple believers alike questioned pontifical authority and the very truth of church doctrines themselves. Then between 1376 and 1378, when Pope Gregory XI finally did restore the Introduction ix papacy to Rome, a group of French cardinals elected their own pope in Avignon, and so began the great Papal Schism. This proved to be a second and far more serious crisis for the church as two and sometimes three rival popes excom- municated one another in attempts to attract papal tax revenues and the support of European monarchs. The schism took several church councils and nearly forty years to heal, but doubts sown among the Christian faithful during this divisive time never really faded and were exacerbated later in the fifteenth century when a series of particularly corrupt popes in Rome further alienated an already-wary populace. Another crisis of the late Middle Ages primarily involved France, and to a lesser extent England, when these two kingdoms clashed in the so-called Hun- dred Years’ War. Actually a series of battles and skirmishes during the period 1337–1453, this struggle sorely tested the French people since most of the fight- ing occurred on their soil. It was also a particularly destructive war in that both armies were largely composed of mercenary troops who plundered freely and lived off the land rather than carry their own supplies. The war also saw the first use in Europe of firearms, which, although they were primitive and often more dangerous to the gunners than to the target, nevertheless opened the door to the use of more sophisticated and accurate guns as the conflict dragged on. The Hundred Years’ War was in some respects the first “modern” war in its ravaging effects on civilians and the countryside, in the sheer size of the war effort on the part of the combatants, and in the more “national” character of a conflict that loomed larger than the dynastic and feudal clashes of old. Easily the most catastrophic event of the fourteenth century, and perhaps in the entire history of Europe, was the epidemic known as the Black Death, which initially swept through the Continent between 1347 and 1351 and returned in- termittently during the next few centuries. We now know that the Black Death was a combination of bubonic plague, carried by fleas that jumped from rats to human hosts, and pneumonia, which struck Europeans already weakened by a shortage of food due to overpopulation and a series of poor harvests. After flea- infested rats arrived in Italy late in 1347 aboard trading vessels from the Levant, the lethal disease spread quickly until, in a few years’ time, it had claimed the lives of some 40 percent of Europe’s total population.

  • Music Perception in Historical Audiences: Towards Predictive Models of Music Perception in Historical Audiences
    journal of interdisciplinary music studies 2014-2016, volume 8, issue 1&2, art. #16081204, pp. 91-120 open peer commentary article Music perception in historical audiences: Towards predictive models of music perception in historical audiences Marcus T. Pearce1 and Tuomas Eerola2 1Queen Mary University of London, London E1 4NS 2Durham University, Durham DH1 3RL Background in Historical Musicology. In addition to making inferences about historical performance practice, it is interesting to ask questions about the experience of historical listeners. In particular, how might their perception vary from that of present-day listeners (and listeners at other time points, more generally) as a function of the music to which they were exposed throughout their lives. Background in Music Cognition. To illustrate the approach, we focus on the cognitive process of expectation, which has long been of interest to musicians and music psychologists, partly because it is thought to be one of the processes supporting the induction of emotion by music. Recent work has established models of expectation based on probabilistic learning of statistical regularities in the music to which an individual is exposed. This raises the possibility of developing simulations of historical listeners by training models on the music to which they might have been exposed. Aims. First, we aim to develop a framework for creating and testing simulated perceptual models of historical listeners. Second, we aim to provide simple but concrete illustrations of how the simulations can be applied in a preliminary approach. These are intended as illustrative feasibility studies to provide a springboard for further discussion and development rather than fully fledged experiments in their own right.

FOREIGN INFLUENCES ON AND INNOVATION IN ENGLISH TOMB SCULPTURE IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY by Nicola Jane Shilliam B.A. (Warwick) Ph.D. dissertation Warwick University History of Art September 1986 SUMMARY This study is an investigation of stylistic and iconographic innovation in English tomb sculpture from the accession of King Henry VIII through the first half of the sixteenth century, a period during which Tudor society and Tudor art were in transition as a result of greater interaction with continental Europe. The form of the tomb was moulded by contemporary cultural, temporal and spiritual innovations, as well as by the force of artistic personalities and the directives of patrons. Conversely, tomb sculpture is an inherently conservative art, and old traditions and practices were resistant to innovation. The early chapters examine different means of change as illustrated by a particular group of tombs. The most direct innovations were introduced by the royal tombs by Pietro Torrigiano in Westminster Abbey. The function of Italian merchants in England as intermediaries between Italian artists and English patrons is considered. Italian artists also introduced terracotta to England.

QUELLEN ZU ANDREAS BAUMKIRCHER IM UNGARISCHEN STAATSARCHIV. Andreas Baumkircher kam mit Ungarn wahrscheinlich um das Jahr 1445 in Verbindung. Kaiser Friedrich III. hat bekanntlich im Sommer dieses Jahres als Vormund des fünfjährigen König Ladislaus V. von Ungarn einen Blitzkrieg gegen die Westgebiete Ungarns geführt und dort mehrere Burgen, darunter Güns und Eisenstadt, für sich erobert. Zu den damals besetzten Herrrschaf- ten dürfte außer Schlaining auch Burg an der Pinka (Ovar) gehören, mit einem Kastell, das laut einer Urkunde vom 13. September 1446 "zur Zeit der jetzigen Wirren" (hys disturbiorum temporibus) durch Ladislaus' Feldherrn, Johannes Giskra von Brandis besetzt und "in die Hände von Deutschen" (manibus Theutunicorum) übergeben worden war. ^ Das kleine Kastell mußte übrigens gleich nach seiner Eroberung geschleift werden, denn Burg an der Pinka kommt von diesem Zeitpunkt an immer als Appendix der benachbarten Burgherrschaft Schlaining vor und ist bald darin gänzlich aufgegangen. ^ Man weiß nicht, welchen Deutschen das Schloß in Burg in die Hände fiel, aber es mochten Andreas Baumkircher und seine Gefolgsleute gewesen sein. Wir finden ihn nämlich bereits ein Jahr später als Besitzer von Schlaining und dem damit vereinigten Burg an der Pinka.

    False Oaths The Silent Alliance between Church and Heretics in England, c.1400-c.1530 Sarah Raskin Submitted in partial fulFillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Sarah Raskin All rights reserved ABSTRACT False Oaths: The Silent Alliance between Church and Heretics in England, c. 1400-1530 Sarah Raskin This dissertation re-examines trials for heresy in England from 1382, which saw the First major action directed at the WyclifFite heresy in Oxford, and the early Reformation period, with an emphasis on abjurations, the oaths renouncing heretical beliefs that suspects were required to swear after their interrogations were concluded. It draws a direct link between the customs that developed around the ceremony of abjuration and the exceptionally low rate of execution for “relapsed” and “obstinate” heretics in England, compared to other major European anti-heresy campaigns of the period. Several cases are analyzed in which heretics who should have been executed, according to the letter and intention of canon law on the subject, were permitted to abjure, sometimes repeatedly. Other cases ended in execution despite intense efforts by the presiding bishop to obtain a similarly law-bending abjuration. All these cases are situated in the context of the constitutions governing heresy trials as well as a survey of the theology and cultural standing of oaths within both WyclifFism and the broader Late Medieval and Early Modern world. This dissertation traces how Lollard heretics gradually accepted the necessity of false abjuration as one of a number of measures to preserve their lives and their movement, and how early adopters using coded writing carefully persuaded their co-religionists of this necessity.

  • A Building Site in Early Sixteenth-Century Normandy: the Castle of Gaillon, Organization, Workers, Materials and Technologies
    A Building Site in Early Sixteenth-Century Normandy: the Castle of Gaillon, Organization, Workers, Materials and Technologies Flaminia Bardati The castle of Gaillon, built in Normandy between 1498 and 1510 for cardinal Georges I d’Amboise, has been considered one of the first and most significant achievements of the early French Renaissance. Sited on the top of a pleasant hill, the cardinal's residence towered over the villages of Gaillon, Sainte-Barbe and Aubevoie, and enjoyed a wonderful view of the river Seine and the rich plain belonging to the Rouen episcopate (fig.1). Figure 1. Jacques Androuet Du Cerceau, View of the castle of Gaillon (1576). 289 Because of its remarkable strategic geographic location, on the route from Paris to Rouen, Gaillon held a very important military position during the fight for the conquest of Normandy between the Plantagenets and the French crown. Definitively conquered by Philippe Auguste (1180-1223), the medieval castle was offered by King Saint Louis (1226-1270) to the archbishops of Rouen, who made Gaillon their principal residence until the French Revolution (Deville 1850, p. IX; Chirol 1952, pp. 86-91). In 1424 the English army destroyed all the fortified elements. Cardinal Guillaume d'Estouteville (1412-1483), who had maintained a princely court in Rome, became archbishop of Rouen in 1453; from the time of his election he started some restoration works at Gaillon, concerning mostly the castle entrance -the châtelet- and a few new apartments on the south-west side, known as the corps d'Estouteville (fig.2, G, N). From 1498 to 1510 Gaillon became the stage of the magnificent court orbiting around cardinal Georges I d'Amboise (1460-1510), the principal political and diplomatic protagonist of Louis XII's reign.

  • The College and Canons of St Stephen's, Westminster, 1348
    The College and Canons of St Stephen’s, Westminster, 1348 - 1548 Volume I of II Elizabeth Biggs PhD University of York History October 2016 Abstract This thesis is concerned with the college founded by Edward III in his principal palace of Westminster in 1348 and dissolved by Edward VI in 1548 in order to examine issues of royal patronage, the relationships of the Church to the Crown, and institutional networks across the later Middle Ages. As no internal archive survives from St Stephen’s College, this thesis depends on comparison with and reconstruction from royal records and the archives of other institutions, including those of its sister college, St George’s, Windsor. In so doing, it has two main aims: to place St Stephen’s College back into its place at the heart of Westminster’s political, religious and administrative life; and to develop a method for institutional history that is concerned more with connections than solely with the internal workings of a single institution. As there has been no full scholarly study of St Stephen’s College, this thesis provides a complete institutional history of the college from foundation to dissolution before turning to thematic consideration of its place in royal administration, music and worship, and the manor of Westminster. The circumstances and processes surrounding its foundation are compared with other such colleges to understand the multiple agencies that formed St Stephen’s, including that of the canons themselves. Kings and their relatives used St Stephen’s for their private worship and as a site of visible royal piety.
