  • Edition of Henri-Xavier Arquillière, L'augustinisme Politique: Essai
    1 Translation by Catherine J. Bright and Courtney M. Booker, of Henri-Xavier Arquillière, L’Augustinisme politique: Essai sur la formation des théories politiques du Moyen-Age, second ed. (Paris: Vrin, 1955), 19–50. PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION The study that I present in these pages is by no means a general statement of Saint Augustine’s political doctrine. That has been done many times.1 The goal of my research is more limited. All medievalists have been struck by the profound intermingling of the Church and the State, which forms one of the characteristic traits of medieval civilization. How did this intimate relationship operate? How was the old Roman idea of the State absorbed by the increasing influence of the Christian idea, to the point that it led to the theory of the two swords in the twelfth century? That is the question. I have named this progressive, irregular movement political Augustinism, for want of a better term.2 I endeavored to define its formation and to mark some of its stages with precision. If by doing so I was able to open some avenues of research, in which I have directed several of my students, then I will have fully achieved my goal. I sought to observe the lives of certain ideas—to catch, in a way, their distortion in the minds of those that were simpler than the protagonists who inspired them, and to establish how these ideas came to transform major institutions, such as the monarchy. 1 See in particular the recent work of Gustave Combès, La doctrine politique de saint Augustin, Paris, 1927 (482 p.).

  • Martyrology 12 09 19
    Martyrology An Anglican Martyrology - for the British Isles 1 of 160 Martyrology Introduction The base text is the martyrology compiled by Fr. Hugh Feiss, OSB. Copyright © 2008 by the Monastery of the Ascension, Jerome, ID 83338 and available online at the website of the Monastery of Christ in the Desert. The calendars of each of the three Anglican churches of the British isles contain varied group commemorations, I suggest these entries are read only in the province where they are observed and have indicated that by the use of italics and brackets. However, people, particularly in the Church of England, are woefully ignorant of the history of the other Anglican churches of our islands and it would be good if all entries for the islands are used in each province. The Roman dates are also indicated where these vary from Anglican ones but not all those on the Roman Calendar have an entry. The introductions to the saints and celebrations in the Anglican calendars in England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales in Exciting Holiness, ed. Brother Tristam SSF, The Canterbury Press, 1997, have been added where a saint did not already appear in the martyrology. These have been adapted to indicate the place and date of death at the beginning, as is traditional at the reading of the martyrology. For the place of death I have generally relied on Wikipedia. For Irish, Welsh and Scottish celebrations not appearing in Exciting Holiness I have used the latest edition of Celebrating the Saints, Canterbury Press, 2004. These entries are generally longer than appear in martyrologies and probably need editing down even more than I have done if they are to be read liturgically.

  • The Calendar and Litany of Reading Abbey
    The Calendar and Litany of Reading Abbey Nigel Morgan University of Cambridge Before concentrating on the Calendar and Litany a general assessment of the evidence for the liturgical practices of Reading Abbey has to be considered. Compared with some of the other English Benedictine houses such as Durham and St Albans the survival of liturgical texts is very small. No Missal, Breviary or any choir book has survived, and of complete liturgical books there are only one mid-thirteenth-century Psalter, New York, Pierpont Morgan Library MS M. 103, and a part Martyrology (Dec. 25th-Feb. 27th, July 15th-Dec. 24th) of the last quarter of the twelfth century, London, British Library MS Harley 82.1 There are also two prayer books, Oxford, Worcester College MS 213/213* (3.16 A) of the second half of the thirteenth century, given to the abbey by Prior Alan, and one of the late fifteenth century in a private collection in the United States (Sotheby Dec. 7th 1964, lot 149) which contains a Reading calendar.2 Other texts not in liturgical books exist of the calendar and they will shortly be discussed (a list is also provided in the Appendix to this paper). The conclusion has to be made that apart from these texts of the calendar, and the single text of the litany in the Psalter in New York, very little is known about the liturgy of Reading. The first abbot of Henry I’s foundation was Hugh de Boves (Hugh of Amiens), a Cluniac.3 He had been a monk of Cluny from 1099 to 1115, prior of St Martial at Limoges from 1115 to 1120, prior of Lewes, the first Cluniac foundation in England from 1120 to 1123, and finally first abbot of Reading from 1123 to 1130.

  • RESPONDÁMOSLE a CONCIERTO Nacional De Música Antigua, Entre Ellos Jordi Savall (Capella Reial De Catalunya, Hesperion XXI) Y Carles Magraner (Capella De Ministrers)
    Maricarmen Gómez Muntané (Barcelona, 1949) es reconocida como una de las máximas autoridades en música española de los períodos medieval y renacentista. Titulada como profesora de música y de piano por el Conservatorio del Liceu, Gómez Muntané se doctoró con un trabajo sobre la música en la corte de la Corona de Aragón entre 1336-1432 que le valió el Premio Nacional de Musicología. Tras un primer período de formación en el Instituto Español de Musicología (CSIC), obtuvo una beca de la fundación Alexander von Humboldt (eds.) para una estancia de investigación en el Institut für Musikwissenschaft de la Sergi Zauner Sergi Universidad de Göttingen. Al abrigo de la incomparable tradición musicológica Eduardo Carrero germana y bajo la supervisión de alguno de sus nombres más ilustres, esta estancia marcaría para siempre la metodología y estilo de Gómez Muntané, imprimiendo en ella el que siempre ha sido uno de sus sellos característicos: la proyección internacional, algo singular en la musicología española de la década de los ochenta. En 1985 se incorporó a la Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, institución a la que ha permanecido vinculada hasta la fecha: ocupó inicialmente un cargo de profesora titular, la cátedra de Música antigua después, y el título de profesora emérita desde su reciente jubilación. A lo largo de estos años ha sido profesora invitada en las Universidades de Princeton y North Texas, ha colaborado con instituciones docentes nacionales y extranjeras, y ha desempeñado el cargo de Director-at-large de la Asociación Internacional de Musicología.

  • Water As Medieval Intellectual Entity
    Water as Medieval Intellectual Entity Case Studies in Twelfth-Century Western Monasticism James L. Smith 10406629 BA(Hons) W.Aust (2008), GCRC QUT (2010) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History of The University of Western Australia School of Humanities Discipline of History 2013 ii ABSTRACT In this thesis, the imagery of water serves as a point of focus for an inquiry into the composition of medieval abstract space. As a ubiquitous element of human life with distinct properties and connotations across time, water touches, and has ever touched upon, both what is historically and culturally unique and what is ongoing within environmental imagination. This study examines the significance and the deployment of environmental imagery in the composition, narration, and recollection of organised thought in the Middle Ages. I argue that images of environment in systematic ecological arrangement perform a key role in revealing medieval spaces of thought. The intellectual and imaginative uses of water in medieval thought merge mind and environment, and bind intellection and phenomenon within the spaces of the inner world. This thesis suggests that the medieval logic of these patterned spaces links us intimately to the internal structures of sense-making in a distinct intellectual milieu—that of monastic, twelfth-century, Northern European Christendom—and to the understanding of environment that it implied, be it cultural, religious, or quotidian. In this thesis, I analyse the imagery and the rhetoric of water in various texts as a means to explore the potential meanings of water as an abstract entity in medieval thought.

  • The Martyrology of the Monastery of the Ascension
    The Martyrology of the Monastery of the Ascension Introduction History of Martyrologies The Martyrology is an official liturgical book of the Catholic Church. The official Latin version of the Martyrology contains a short liturgical service the daily reading of the Martyrology’s list of saints for each day. The oldest surviving martyologies are the lists of martyrs and bishops from the fourth-century Roman Church. The martyrology wrongly attributed to St. Jerome was written in Ital in the second half of the fifth century, but all the surviving versions of it come from Gaul. It is a simple martyrology, which lists the name of the saint and the date and place of death of the saint. Historical martyrologies give a brief history of the saints. In the eighth and ninth centuries, St. Bede, Rhabanus Maurus, and Usuard all wrote historical martyrologies. The Roman Martyrology, based primarily on Usuard’s, was first published in 1583, and the edition of 1584 was made normative in the Roman rite by Gregory XIII. The post-Vatican II revision appeared first in 2001. A revision that corrected typographical errors and added 117 people canonized by Pope John Paul II between 2001 and 2004, appeared in 2005.1 The Purpose and Principles of This Martyology The primary purpose of this martyrology is to provide an historically accurate text for liturgical use at the monastery, where each day after noon prayer it is customary to read the martyrology for the following day. Some things in this martyrology are specific to the Monastery of the Ascension: namesdays of the members of the community, anniversaries of members of the community who have died, a few references to specific events or saints of local interest.

In these dedication pages of his Gospel book the young emperor Otto III—who died in the year 1002 at age twenty-one—is portrayed in imperial splendor, holding the orb and scepter that symbolize his authority and power. Posed frontally on a faldstool throne before a cloth of honor, Otto draws the viewer’s attention with his steady gaze. His larger size and slight elevation demonstrate his higher rank over the churchmen and weapon bearers that flank him. In the left hand miniature (not shown) personifications of Rome and Provinces of the Empire approach the emperor bearing gifts, their heads and bodies slightly inclined to show their homage.
