  • William Cave (1637-1713) and the Fortunes of Historia Literaria in England
    WILLIAM CAVE (1637-1713) AND THE FORTUNES OF HISTORIA LITERARIA IN ENGLAND ALEXANDER ROBERT WRIGHT Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, December 2017 Faculty of English Abstract WILLIAM CAVE (1637-1713) AND THE FORTUNES OF HISTORIA LITERARIA IN ENGLAND Alexander Robert Wright This thesis is the first full-length study of the English clergyman and historian William Cave (1637-1713). As one of a number of Restoration divines invested in exploring the lives and writings of the early Christians, Cave has nonetheless won only meagre interest from early- modernists in the past decade. Among his contemporaries and well into the nineteenth century Cave’s vernacular biographies of the Apostles and Church Fathers were widely read, but it was with the two volumes of his Scriptorum Ecclesiasticorum Historia Literaria (1688 and 1698), his life’s work, that he made his most important and lasting contribution to scholarship. The first aim of the thesis is therefore to build on a recent quickening of research into the innovative early-modern genre of historia literaria by exploring how, why, and with what help, in the context of late seventeenth-century European intellectual culture, Cave decided to write a work of literary history. To do so it makes extensive use of the handwritten drafts, annotations, notebooks, and letters that he left behind, giving a comprehensive account of his reading and scholarly practices from his student-days in 1650s Cambridge and then as a young clergyman in the 1660s to his final, unsuccessful attempts to publish a revised edition of his book at the end of his life.

  • 1 the Summa Theologiae and the Reformed Traditions Christoph Schwöbel 1. Luther and Thomas Aquinas
    The Summa Theologiae and the Reformed Traditions Christoph Schwöbel 1. Luther and Thomas Aquinas: A Conflict over Authority? On 10 December 1520 at the Elster Gate of Wittenberg, Martin Luther burned his copy of the papal bull Exsurge domine, issued by pope Leo X on 15 June of that year, demanding of Luther to retract 41 errors from his writings. The time for Luther to react obediently within 60 days had expired on that date. The book burning was a response to the burning of Luther’s works which his adversary Johannes Eck had staged in a number of cities. Johann Agricola, Luther’s student and president of the Paedagogium of the University, who had organized the event at the Elster Gate, also got hold of a copy of the books of canon law which was similarly committed to the flames. Following contemporary testimonies it is probable that Agricola had also tried to collect copies of works of scholastic theology for the burning, most notably the Summa Theologiae. However, the search proved unsuccessful and the Summa was not burned alongside the papal bull since the Wittenberg theologians – Martin Luther arguably among them – did not want to relinquish their copies.1 The event seems paradigmatic of the attitude of the early Protestant Reformers to the Summa and its author. In Luther’s writings we find relatively frequent references to Thomas Aquinas, although not exact quotations.2 With regard to the person of Thomas Luther could gleefully report on the girth of Thomas Aquinas, including the much-repeated story that he could eat a whole goose in one go and that a hole had to be cut into his table to allow him to sit at the table at all.3 At the same time Luther could also relate several times and in different contexts in his table talks how Thomas at the time of his death experienced such grave spiritual temptations that he could not hold out against the devil until he confounded him by embracing his Bible, saying: “I believe what is written in this book.”4 At least on some occasions Luther 1 Cf.

  • Humanist I Zagrebački Biskup Nicolaus Olahus (Nikola Olah, Nicolae Valahul Ili Românul, 1543-1548) I Njegova Korespondencija Sa Stjepanom Brodarićem
    RANI NOVI VIJEK Castilia Manea-Grgin ISSN 0353-295X UDK 262.1 Nicolaus Olahus RADOVI – Zavod za hrvatsku povijest Vol. 42, Zagreb 2010. Izvorni znanstveni rad Humanist i zagrebački biskup Nicolaus Olahus (Nikola Olah, Nicolae Valahul ili Românul, 1543-1548) i njegova korespondencija sa Stjepanom Brodarićem Ovaj rad je posvećen važnoj povijesnoj ličnosti Ugarsko-hrvatskog kraljevstva i ču- venom humanistu rumunjskog podrijetla Nicolausu Olahusu (1491/3-1568), koji je nedovoljno poznat u hrvatskoj historiografiji. Autorica je u članku pokušala ukratko rekonstruirati, prema tiskanim izvorima i relevantnoj literaturi, njegovo podrijetlo te crkvenu i političku karijeru. Težište se stavilo na njegovu djelatnost kao zagrebačkog biskupa te na njegov humanistički opus. Detaljno je analizirana njegova korespon- dencija s hrvatskim prelatom, diplomatom i humanistom Stjepanom Brodarićem. Budući da su Hrvati i Rumunji ili barem dio njihovih nacionalnih korpusa u prošlosti dulje ili kraće živjeli u istim državama (srednjovjekovna Ugarska/Habs- burška Monarhija/Austro-Ugarska ili Osmansko Carstvo), hrvatska i rumunjska povijest više su povezane nego što to danas izgleda. Neki Hrvati imaju posebno mjesto u rumunjskoj povijesti, poput moldavskog kneza Gašpara Grazianija s početka 17. stoljeća,1 dok su neke povijesne ličnosti rumunjskog podrijetla u 15. i 16. stoljeću znatno utjecale i na sudbinu hrvatskih zemalja. Ti su Rumunji potjecali iz Transilvanije, koja je stoljećima bila dio Ugarske. Jedan od njih je i važna povijesna ličnost Ugarsko-hrvatskog kraljevstva i čuveni humanist, poznat pod renesansnim imenom Nicolaus Olahus (1491/3-1568). O njemu se ponajviše pisalo u rumunjskoj i mađarskoj historiografiji, a i u Slovačkoj i Belgiji, na po- dručju zemalja u kojima je živio i djelovao.2 1 Vidi o Gašparu Grazianiju MANEA-GRGIN 2006, 51-77.
