Traill WALTER OF CHATILLON'S PROSIMETRON IN DOMINO CONFIDO (W.3): WHERE AND WHEN WAS IT PERFORMED?* INTRODUCTION Waiter of Chätillon was one of the most gifted Latin poets of the Middle Ages. His epic poem Alexandreis is his best-known work but he is almost equally well known as the author of some of the best satirical verse in Medieval Latin. Despite his fame, however, little is known about his life. We have to depend for the most part on a number of brief biographical sketches or vitae, whose unreliability is signaled by the mutually contradictory information they provide'. A brief synopsis based on that ev- idence follows. Waiter was born in or near Lilie and received an excellent education at Orleans (or Reims) and Paris. He seems to have taught at Laon and later at Chäril- lon-sur-Marne, not far from Reims. He went to Bologna to study law and in 1176, when William of the White Hands, brother-in-law of Louis VII, was appointed arch- bishop of Reims, WaIter was drawn into his literary circle and it was to William that Waiter dedicated his Alexandreis. He was made a canon of Amiens (or Beauvais or Or- leans) and he mayor may not have died of leprosy.

  • This Is Canterbury Cathedral. in Today's Lesson You Are Going To
    This is Canterbury Cathedral. In today’s lesson you are going to learn about something very SHOCKING that took place here in the Medieval Period. On 29 December 1170, a very important man called Thomas Becket was murdered in this very holy place. A monk called Edward Grim watched the murder. “One of the knights raised his sword and wounded Becket in the head. That same blow almost cut off my arm as I held the archbishop. Then Becket received a second blow, but still he managed to stand. At the third blow he fell. He said, “For the name of Jesus and the protection of his Church I am prepared to die”. Then the third knight struck Becket so hard that his sword broke. The top was cut off the archbishop’s head so that blood stained the cathedral floor. Another man put his foot on Becket’s neck and scattered his brains all over the floor. He called out: “Let us away, knights. He will trouble us no more”. I am Henry II. I am Thomas I had an Becket. argument Unfortunately with my for me, King friend, Henry II’s Thomas knights Becket, who thought that was the the King Archbishop wanted to get of rid of me.

  • THE CONSTRUCTION of CHAUCER's PARDONER Alastair Minnis the Corpus of Latin Literature on Indulgences Is Vast
    THE CONSTRUCTION OF CHAUCER’S PARDONER Alastair Minnis The corpus of Latin literature on indulgences is vast; much of it has been under-studied, and several of the most significant discussions remain unedited. Albert “the Great” of Cologne, Bonaventure of Bagnorea, Durandus of St. Pourçain, Francesco della Rossa Bartholi, Francis of Meyronnes, John Baconthorpe, John of Dambach, John of Salisbury, Peter Abelard, Peter of Blois, Peter the Chanter, Peter of Poitiers, Peter John Olivi, Peter of la Palud, Peter of Tarantasia, Richard Godmersham, Robert Courson, Senatus of Worcester, Simon of Cremona, Stephen Langton, Thomas Aquinas, Thomas of Chobham, William Lyndwood, William of Auvergne, William of Auxerre....1 Those are just a few among the large number of schol- ars who had important things to say about the theology which under- pinned indulgences, many of the later accounts appearing in commentaries on the fourth book of Peter Lombard’s Sentences (a major locus classicus for relevant discussion). Interest in the topic was international, even as the practice of dispensing indulgences was inter- national. When we seek material on pardons and pardoners in the several national vernaculars, however, an uneven pattern emerges, and some of the pickings are slim. In the Chanson de Roland Bishop Turpin offers Charlemagne’s troops absolution before they battle against the Saracens, so that if they die they will be “holy martyrs,” seated in “highest paradise” (1130–5).2 This statement is illustrative of early thought about how indulgences can ensure safe passage to heaven through martyrdom, and is of interest in relation to the developing theory and practice of crusad- ing indulgences.

This has led on the one hand to functional approaches that treat the authors as a class subject to sociological analysis, and on the other to approaches that emphasize the fictionality of Minnesang as a form of role- playing in which genre conventions supersede individual contributions. I argue that the men who composed and performed these songs at court were, in fact, using them to create and curate individual profiles for themselves.

  • In the 5Th Century, a Pilgrim Named Egeria Traveled from Spain to What Is Now Istanbul, and on to Jerusalem
    Palm Sunday All Saints, East Lansing April 5, 2020 (during covid-19 pandemic) + In the 5th century, a pilgrim named Egeria traveled from Spain to what is now Istanbul, and on to Jerusalem. She was probably a nun from a wealthy family or perhaps the patron of a convent in Spain and she wrote back to her sisters a long narrative about all her travels to the holy sites mentioned in the Bible and preserved as places of prayer. One of the most fascinating sections of her travel log is about her experiences in Jerusalem during Holy Week. the things that we traditionally do in this week are practices that Christians have observed for more than fifteen hundred years. They are customs that Egeria knew from her convent in Spain and then saw lived out again in Jerusalem. She marvels at the similarity between the traditions that she knew in Spain and those that are kept in Jerusalem. She writes that on the Sunday that begins Holy Week, …The passage from the Gospel is read, where the children, carrying branches and palms, met the Lord, saying; ‘Blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord,’ and the bishop immediately rises, and all the people with him, and they all go on foot from the top of the Mount of Olives, all the people going before him with hymns and antiphons, answering one to another: “Blessed is He that comes in the name of the Lord.’ 1 And all the children in the neighborhood, even those who are too young to walk, are carried by their parents on their shoulders, all of them carrying branches, some of palms and some of olives, and so the bishop is escorted in the same manner as the Lord was of old.

  • Landscape As Cartography in Early Christian Pilgrimage Narratives* Blake Leyerle
    Journal of the American Academy of Religion LXIV/1 AAR Landscape as Cartography in Early Christian Pilgrimage Narratives* Blake Leyerle v_>OMPARED TO OTHER ancient travel literature, early accounts of Christian pilgrimage are strikingly spare. Our first record comes to us from an anonymous traveler in the early fourth century but here the land and its inhabitants, both presumably so exotic, remain as faceless as the traveler. Towards the end of the same century Egerias account shows a greater expansiveness on these matters but still has intriguing silences; while fulsome in expressing pleasure m what she sees, her enthusiasm stops short of any literary depiction of these sights. Jeromes letters, writ­ ten at about the same time, describing the land of Palestine as well as the holy travels of his friend Paula, do direct our attention to the landscape but in a highly stylized way For Jerome, scenery speaks of religious rather than geological formation. By the end of the sixth century, how­ ever, when another anonymous pilgrim traveled to the Holy Land, local fauna, flora, and even matters of ethnography are all of exuberant interest. Why is this? While this question may seem too impressionistic, too insignificant— or perhaps even too obvious—to ask, doing so brings real rewards. Like Blake Leyerle is Assistant Professor of Early Christian History in the Theology Department at the Uni­ versity of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556 * Portions of this paper were presented at the annual meeting of the North American Patnstics Soci­ ety, Loyola

Quidditas 38 (2017) 37 “Dwellers in Shadows” & Abbatial Jerusalem: Reformed Monastic Ideas by the Third Crusade in the Sermons of Garnerius of Rochefort and Adam the Scot Todd P. Upton Denver, Colorado In the crusading era of the Twelfth Century, a majority of Latin sermons presented Jerusalem as a visio pacis (“vision of peace”) that maintained an original characterization of the city made by Pope Urban II’s 1095 sermon at Clermont that launched the First Crusade. This essay dem- onstrates significant ways in which Garnerius of Rochefort and Adam the Scot transformed that visio pacis by the end of the twelfth century. For Garnerius (d. 1215)—a bishop at Langres (in northeastern France) from 1193 who wrote against the Amaurian pantheistic heresy, and died at Clairvaux—the traditional Augustinian visio spiritualis of Jerusalem was reversed, in that Garnerius saw not a celestial or even idealized earthly city, but a physical Jerusalem whose “dwellers in shadows” were practic- ing abominations in the eyes of the Lord.

  • The Medieval Officials-Principal of Rochester
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 53 1940 THE MEDIEVAL OFFICIALS-PRINCIPAL OF ROCHESTER. BY THE KEV. A. L. BKOWNE, M.A. INTRODUCTION. OP the ecclesiastical conditions that brought these officers into being Neander is informative. " In the course of the twelfth century," he writes, " the bishops (of Western Christendom) empowered proxies in the administration of their jurisdiction, under the name officiales to preserve their authority against archidiaconal encroachment." (Church History VII, 284, ed. 1851.) That the innovation answered its primary purpose can be admitted, but on the other hand it incidentally provided a whip for lashing laymen and clerics suspected of or charged with breaches of canon law. And the strictures passed on the administrative iniquities of these officers, at any rate on the Continent, by Peter of Blois1 are sufficiently pertinent for quotation : " Tota officialis intentio est, ut ad opus episcopi suae jurisdictioni commissas miserimas oves quasi vice illius tondeat, emungat, excoriet. Isti sunt episcoporum sanguisugae" (Ep. 25). This, epitomized, may be rendered :—These officials are employed to shear the wretched sheep within their jurisdiction; they are the bloodsuckers for the bishops. Be this as it may, one hesitates to believe that the enormities to which the writer refers could ever have obtained on an equal scale in the freer atmosphere of England, and where judgments given in a Consistory Court were subject to revision or disallowance on appeal to a bishop in person. As a matter of fact the bishop who appointed could also dismiss his Official, unless the Cathedral Chapter had confirmed the appointment, when it became a benefice and thereby tenable for life.

  • Notes and Documents Downloaded from the Letters of Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine to Pope Celestine III
    78 LETTERS OF ELEANOR OF AQUITAINE Jan. Notes and Documents Downloaded from The Letters of Queen Eleanor of Aquitaine to Pope Celestine III. OP all the perils which beset the unwary historian none is more insidious than the rhetorical exercise masquerading in the guise of http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ an historical letter; it deceives only the more effectually because it was written with no thought of deception, and is often close enough to fact and accurate enough in form to mislead all but the most minute and laborious of critics. The present article is an attempt to follow up the suggestion of M. Charles Bemont that the three letters from Eleanor of Aquitaine to Pope Celestine III, printed by Eymer in the Foedera, are rhetorical studies of this nature. at Emory University on August 24, 2015 The letters in question purport to be addressed by Queen Eleanor to the pope, imploring his intervention on behalf of her son, Richard I, then a prisoner in the hands of the emperor Henry VI. Not only has their authenticity been accepted without question, but bibliographers have derived from them Eleanor's title to a place in the company of royal and noble authors,1 while historians have built up on them a theory of the part played by the queen mother in the release of the captive king. Finding the letters to Celestine HI under Eleanor's name, the modern historians of the twelfth century have connected them with a state- ment made by Roger of Hoveden to the effect that in the year 1198 the pope wrote to the clergy of England, ut imperator et totvm ipsius regnum subiicerentur anathemati, nisi rex Angliae celerius liberaretur a eaptione iltixw.* The editors of the Recueil des Historiens de France * mention Eleanor's letters and then quote Hoveden, leaving the connexion to be inferred.
