It began in October 2015 and will be UNIVERSITÀ DEGLI STUDI DI SIENA Origins of a new economic union concluded in October 2020. The University of Siena is the host institution of the project. th th The project is focussed upon two Tuscan riverine corridors leading from (7 -12 centuries) the Gulf of Follonica in the Tyrrhenian Sea to the Colline Metallifere. It aims to document and analyze the form and timeframe of economic growth in this part of the Mediterranean, which took place between the Preliminary results of the nEU-Med project: 7th and the 12thc. Central to this is an understanding of the processes of change in human settlements, in the natural and farming landscapes October 2015-March 2017 in relation to the exploitation of resources, and in the implementation of differing political strategies. This volume brings together the research presented at the first nEU- Med workshop, held in Siena on 11-12 April, 2017. The aim of the edited by Bianchi, Richard Hodges workshop was to draw up an initial survey of research and related work on the project, one and a half years after its inception. The project is Giovanna Bianchi, Richard Hodges composed of several research units. Each unit covers an aspect of the interdisciplinary research underpinning the nEU-Med project, each with their own methodology. For this first volume of results, it was decided not to give an account of all the work carried out within all the units, edited by Giovanna but to select those lines of investigation which, at the end of the first year and a half, have made it possible to articulate and develop an interdisciplinary research strategy. centuries) th -12 th € 39,00 ISSN 2035-5319 ISBN 978-88-7814-879-6 e-ISBN 978-88-7814-880-2 Origins of a new economic union (7 union economic new a of Origins Preliminary results of the nEU-Med project: October 2015-March 2017 All’Insegna del Giglio 25 - BAM BIBLIOTECA DI 25 ARCHEOLOGIA MEDIEVALE Cultura materiale.

  • Matilda of Canossa Has for Some Time Been A
    This is an Accepted Manuscript of an article published by Taylor & Francis in Journal of Medieval History on 30 September 2015, available online: http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/pdf/10.1080/03044181.2015.1089311 0 Reconsidering Donizone’s Vita Mathildis: Boniface of Canossa and Emperor Henry II Robert Houghton* Department of History, Medecroft Building, King Alfred Campus, Sparkford Road, Winchester, SO22 4NR, United Kingdom (Received 6 March 2014; final version received 5 November 2014) Boniface of Canossa is a figure of great importance to the political and military history of eleventh-century Italy. Modern historiography has almost universally argued that Boniface gained his power through a close relationship and alliance with a series of German emperors. Most accounts see Boniface’s fall and eventual murder in 1052 as a direct consequence of the breakdown of this relationship. This analysis is flawed, however, as it rests predominantly on the evidence of a single source: the Vita Mathildis by Donizone of Canossa. This document was produced more than half a century after the death of Boniface by an author who held complex political goals, but these have not been fully considered in the discussion of Boniface. Through the examination of the charter sources, this article argues that Donizone misrepresented Boniface’s actions and that there is considerable evidence that Boniface was not a consistent ally of the German emperors. Keywords: Italy; diplomatic; authority; power; relationship networks; Donizone of Canossa; Boniface of Canossa; Holy Roman Empire 1 Boniface of Canossa (c.985–1052) was one of the most influential figures in northern and central Italy in the early eleventh century, controlling extensive lands and rights in the counties of Mantua, Reggio, Modena, Parma, Bergamo, Brescia, Verona, Ferarra and Bologna, and in the duchy of Tuscany.1 Canossa itself dominated the important pass between Reggio and Tuscany.

  • Bavaria the Bavarians Emerged in a Region North of the Alps, Originally Inhabited by the Celts, Which Had Been Part of the Roman Provinces of Rhaetia and Noricum
    Bavaria The Bavarians emerged in a region north of the Alps, originally inhabited by the Celts, which had been part of the Roman provinces of Rhaetia and Noricum. The Bavarians spoke Old High German but, unlike other Germanic groups, did not migrate from elsewhere. Rather, they seem to have coalesced out of other groups left behind by Roman withdrawal late in the 5th century AD. These peoples may have included Marcomanni, Thuringians, Goths, Rugians, Heruli, and some remaining Romans. The name "Bavarian" ("Baiuvari") means "Men of Baia" which may indicate Bohemia, the homeland of the Marcomanni. They first appear in written sources circa 520. Saint Boniface completed the people's conversion to Christianity in the early 8th century. Bavaria was, for the most part, unaffected by the Protestant Reformation, and even today, most of it is strongly Roman Catholic. From about 550 to 788, the house of Agilolfing ruled the duchy of Bavaria, ending with Tassilo III who was deposed by Charlemagne. Three early dukes are named in Frankish sources: Garibald I may have been appointed to the office by the Merovingian kings and married the Lombard princess Walderada when the church forbade her to King Chlothar I in 555. Their daughter, Theodelinde, became Queen of the Lombards in northern Italy and Garibald was forced to flee to her when he fell out with his Frankish over- lords. Garibald's successor, Tassilo I, tried unsuccessfully to hold the eastern frontier against the expansion of Slavs and Avars around 600. Tassilo's son Garibald II seems to have achieved a balance of power between 610 and 616.

  • 1 the Ottonians and Italy* Levi Roach It May Seem Counterintuitive to Have an Article on Italy in a Special Issue of German Hist
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Open Research Exeter 1 The Ottonians and Italy* Levi Roach It may seem counterintuitive to have an article on Italy in a special issue of German History, and, in a sense, it is. Already in the middle ages, the Italian realm and its inhabitants were recognized as distinct from their northern neighbours—and interactions between the regions generally served to underline these differences. Nevertheless, on another level, there should be nothing more natural. From the acquisition of the regnum Italiae by Otto I in late 961 (and with it the imperial crown in early 962) through to 1806, claims to rule over the northern half of the Apennine peninsula were a constant feature of German (and Italian) politics, leaving a deep and lasting legacy in both regions. Moreover, while active German political involvement in Lombardy was to prove relatively short-lived and episodic, this was by no means inevitable. Despite this, studies spanning the two regions are few and far between. The grounds are not hard to find. In Italy and Germany, as elsewhere in Europe, the professional study of history emerged within the framework of—and as an accessory to—the nineteenth-century nation state. As a consequence, Italian history is mostly studied by Italians, in isolation from that of its northern neighbours (and rulers), and German history is largely pursued within the Germanophone world, with little consideration of Italy (save as a setting for imperial dignity). This trend is neatly illustrated by the most recent scholarly biographies of Otto I (r.

  • 1 CHAPTER EIGHT Apocalypticism and the Rhetoric of Reform in Italy
    1 CHAPTER EIGHT Apocalypticism and the Rhetoric of Reform in Italy around the Year 1000* Levi Roach, University of Exeter To note that apocalyptic beliefs and reforming efforts often coincide is to come dangerously close to stating the obvious. The link between church renewal and ideas about Antichrist was already noted by Bernard McGinn, whilst Giles Constable likewise underlined the contribution of apocalypticism to the reforming movements of the twelfth century.1 In more recent years, such lines of inquiry have been developed in a number of directions, from eighth- and ninth-century Carolingian correctio, to the missionary efforts of the thirteenth- century mendicants, emphasising throughout the complex and often complementary roles of reform and apocalypse.2 However, despite this work, the subjects are frequently still viewed through separate lenses, the former tending to be seen as archetypally ‘orthodox’, and the latter as dangerously ‘heterodox’. This is not entirely without justification: medieval concerns about the apocalypse did at times go beyond the limits of orthodoxy, and reformers were often keen to emphasise their orthodox credentials, sometimes against their more apocalyptic counterparts. Nevertheless, there is a danger of overstating the divide.

The haggadah, a relatively brief text to be recited during the ceremony on Passover eve, counts as one of the obligatory prayers. As such it was originally included in the regular prayer book, the siddur. However, when we open a modern siddur, the haggadah is no longer there. At some point, thus, the haggadah was separated from the siddur and emerged as an individual book. As early scholars of Jewish art soon observed, this process of separation is closely linked to the emergence of the illuminated haggadah in the 13th century.
