It argues that fiction; Dante; Petrarch eschatological realism – the detailed representation of souls in – PAROLE CHIAVE the afterlife lies at the heart of these three works, each of Caratterizzazione; visione which depicts a deceased beloved who now resides in beatifica; verosimiglianza; Paradise. Dante’s Paradiso navigates a range of doctrinal and fictio iuris; Dante; Petrarca literary challenges to incorporate its blessed characters into the poem’s continuum of interlocutors. Although the Commedia culminates with a first-person, mystical experience, the structural importance of third-person voices to the canticle demonstrates the centrality of realist characterization to the overall project. -
On the Tyrant
Bartolus of Saxoferrato On the Tyrant Translated from: Diego Quaglioni, ed. 1983. Politica e diritto nel Trecento italiano. Il ‘De tyranno’ di Bartolo da Sassoferrato (1314–1357) con l’edizione critica dei trattati ‘De guelphis et gebellinis,’ ‘De regimine civitatis’ e ‘De tyranno.’ Il pensiero politico, Biblioteca 11. Florence: Leo S. Olschki Editore, 175–213.1 [1] Because2 I have already laboured for a long time over many tracts, deal- ing with the sweetest materials, which render body, heart, and soul entirely mellifluous (saporosam), I am so full of a sweet taste that I have dared not ap- proach the harshnesses, the difficulties, and the tribulations, especially since I see that tyrannical perfidy is extending its strength. Still, having trusted in 3 the protection of that mercy, which makes eloquent the tongues of infants—nay, Sap. 10:21 4 even makes them shine openly for the nations, I do dare take up (with the cf. Ex. 40:33; Ps. 76:19; help of divine aid) the so severe and horrendous subject matter of tyrannical Ps. 143:6 depravity, not so that I derive any joy or solace from it, but so that all are able to rid themselves completely of the tie and noose of that horrendous wickedness, namely, tyrannical servitude; from this austere and immoderate magisterium God delivers (liberet) us; he conserves us in our own holy, good, and perfect tranquility; ⟦and⟧ he makes us be found (colletari) in the sweetness of liberty. 1. Editorial interventions are marked by ⟨angle brackets⟩, while my own are put in ⟦double square brackets⟧. -

Stites assembled, individually signed, and marketed to academic libraries in the 1960s. In 1966, Stites was president of Stites Associates in Washington, DC, and he amassed several thousand leaves that were removed from rare books and manuscripts and collected by earlier bibliophiles. The original intent of the creation of these folio collections was to address “the concern of rare book collectors today, that the price of a book only a few centuries old had become too costly.” The folios created an affordable way for academic libraries to purchase many examples of artifacts, rare books, and manuscripts. Please note that although these folios have educational and research potential for those interested in the history of the written word and European printing presses, the IUP Special Collections and University Archives does not condone the unnecessary separation of leaves from any rare book or manuscript. Stites created 122 portfolio sets of leaves removed from rare books and manuscripts that were sold to academic libraries (including the IUP Libraries). -

Coming a century an a half after what is THIRD INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON HUMANISTIC generally taken to be the birth of humanism, it is generally understood to be DISCOURSE. HUMANISTIC RESISTANCE TO DOGMATISM TODAY part of humanism mostly in its interest for the historical interpretation of Latin AND AT THE END OF THE MIDDLE AGES texts rather than for participating in the value orientation of humanism. Volume 9, 2001 Strangely enough, legal history has taken the philological work of legal humanism for granted not seeing that legal humanism was itself inscribed in history.

Political Conspiracy in Florence, 1340-1382 A
POLITICAL CONSPIRACY IN FLORENCE, 1340-1382 A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Robert A. Fredona February 2010 © 2010 Robert A. Fredona POLITICAL CONSPIRACY IN FLORENCE, 1340-82 Robert A. Fredona, Ph. D. Cornell University 2010 This dissertation examines the role of secret practices of opposition in the urban politics of Florence between 1340 and 1382. It is based on a wide variety of printed and archival sources, including chronicles, judicial records, government enactments, the records of consultative assemblies, statutes, chancery letters, tax records, private diaries and account books, and the ad hoc opinions (consilia) of jurists. Over the course of four chapters, it presents three major arguments: (1) Conspiracy, a central mechanism of political change and the predominant expression of political dissent in the city, remained primarily a function of the factionalism that had shattered the medieval commune, although it was now practiced not as open warfare but secret resistance. (2) Conspiracies were especially common when the city was ruled by popular governments, which faced almost constant conspiratorial resistance from elite factions that been expelled from the city or had had their political power restricted, while also inspiring increased worker unrest and secret labor organization. (3) Although historians have often located the origins of the “state” in the late medieval and early Renaissance cities of northern and central Italy, the prevalence of secret political opposition, the strength of conspirators and their allies, and the ability of conspiratorial networks, large worker congregations, and even powerful families to vie with weak regimes for power and legitimacy seriously calls this into question. -

The Influence of Canon Law on Ius Commune in Its Formative Period
THE INFLUENCE OF CANON LAW ON IUS COMMUNE IN ITS FORMATIVE PERIOD Sami Mehmeti Faculty of Law, South East European University, Tetovo E-mail: [email protected] DOI: 10.1515/seeur-2015-0034 Abstract In the Medieval period, Roman law and canon law formed ius commune or the common European law. The similarity between Roman and canon law was that they used the same methods and the difference was that they relied on different authoritative texts. In their works canonists and civilists combined the ancient Greek achievements in philosophy with the Roman achievements in the field of law. Canonists were the first who carried out research on the distinctions between various legal sources and systematized them according to a hierarchical order. The Medieval civilists sought solutions in canon law for a large number of problems that Justinian’s Codification did not hinge on or did it only superficially. Solutions offered by canon law were accepted not only in the civil law of Continental Europe, but also in the English law. Key words: Canon law, Roman law, ius commune, Decretum, Corpus iuris civilis 1. Introduction Between the 11th and 14th centuries, the Catholic Church was not only the largest and most organized public institution in Western Europe, but it also had the wealthiest intellectual resources and the most efficient legal system (Deanesly, 1969, pp. 121-130). For medieval lawyers, Roman law and canon law formed ius commune or the common law. The classical canon law used 155 SEEU Review | Volume 11 | Issue 2 | 2015 the same methods as those of the medieval civilists. -
