    MONDAY 03 JULY 2017: 09.00-10.30 Session: 1 Great Hall KEYNOTE LECTURE 2017: THE MEDITERRANEAN OTHER AND THE OTHER MEDITERRANEAN: PERSPECTIVE OF ALTERITY IN THE MIDDLE AGES (Language: English) Nikolas P. Jaspert, Historisches Seminar, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg DRAWING BOUNDARIES: INCLUSION AND EXCLUSION IN MEDIEVAL ISLAMIC SOCIETIES (Language: English) Eduardo Manzano Moreno, Instituto de Historia, Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas (CSIC), Madrid Introduction: Hans-Werner Goetz, Historisches Seminar, Universität Hamburg Details: ‘The Mediterranean Other and the Other Mediterranean: Perspective of Alterity in the Middle Ages’: For many decades, the medieval Mediterranean has repeatedly been put to use in order to address, understand, or explain current issues. Lately, it tends to be seen either as an epitome of transcultural entanglements or - quite on the contrary - as an area of endemic religious conflict. In this paper, I would like to reflect on such readings of the Mediterranean and relate them to several approaches within a dynamic field of historical research referred to as ‘xenology’. I will therefore discuss different modalities of constructing self and otherness in the central and western Mediterranean during the High and Late Middle Ages. The multiple forms of interaction between politically dominant and subaltern religious communities or the conceptual challenges posed by trans-Mediterranean mobility are but two of the vibrant arenas in which alterity was necessarily both negotiated and formed during the medieval millennium. Otherness is however not reduced to the sphere of social and thus human relations. I will therefore also reflect on medieval societies’ dealings with the Mediterranean Sea as a physical and oftentimes alien space.

  • The Clergy in the Medieval World
    The Clergy in the Medieval World Unlike monks and nuns, clergy have hitherto been sidelined in accounts of the Middle Ages, but they played an important role in medieval society. This first broad-ranging study in English of the secular clergy examines how ordination provided a framework for clerical life cycles and outlines the influence exerted on secular clergy by monastic ideals before tracing typical career paths for clerics. Concentrating on north- ern France, England and Germany in the period c.800–c.1200, Julia Barrow explores how entry into the clergy usually occurred in child- hood, with parents making decisions for their sons, although other relatives, chiefly clerical uncles, were also influential. By comparing two main types of family structure, Barrow supplies an explanation of why Gregorian reformers faced little serious opposition in demanding an end to clerical marriage in the eleventh and twelfth centuries. Changes in educational provision c.1100 also help to explain growing social and geographical mobility among clerics. julia barrow is Director of the Institute for Medieval Studies and Professor in Medieval Studies at the University of Leeds.

  • The Cistercian Way
    73 Traditions of Spiritual Guidance THE CISTERCIAN WAY By MICHAEL CASEY ISTERCIAN SPIRITUALITY IS DEFINED, in the first place, by its C pedigree. It is a particular interpretation of the sixth-century Rule of St Benedict as this was lived in the 'New Monastery' of CReaux founded in Burgundy in 1098. The tradition, thus begun, quickly spread to the four comers of Europe so that there were 352 monasteries of Cistercian m~)nks at the death of St Bernard in 1153. Demographic expansion was paralleled by a widespread concern within the monasteries to understand the essential quality of the Cistercian charism. The growth of the Order is impossible to comprehend except by reference to an articulate group of writers who expressed and propagated the values of the Cistercian ideal. Bernard of Clairvaux (1090-1153) is famous. William of St- Thierry (1075-1148), Guerric of Igny (1080-1157) and Aelred of Rievaulx (1109-1167) also are of global importance. There were scores of other writers such as Gilbert of Swineshead (d. 1172), Baldwin of Forde, later Archbishop of Cariterbury (d. 1190), John of Forde (d. 1214) and Stephen of Sawley (d. 1252) who had a local following in their lifetimes and whose works remain powerful even today. Among the nuns it is Beatrice of Nazareth (1200-1268) who is most typical, although Gertrude the Great (1256-1302) and others from Helfta also came within the Cistercian ambit.~ Such persons of great spiritual and literary power not only expressed the Cistercian grace but also contributed to its deepening and growth. Among the many monastic reforms of the eleventh and twelfth centuries CReaux prevailed because it was the most literate.

The Trinitarian Dimensions of Cistercian Eucharistic Theology Nathaniel Nashamoies Landon Peters A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the department of Theology in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Boston College Morrissey College of Arts and Sciences Graduate School March 2017 © Copyright 2017 Nathaniel Nashamoies Landon Peters The Trinitarian Dimensions of Cistercian Eucharistic Theology Nathaniel Nashamoies Landon Peters Advisor: Boyd Taylor Coolman, Ph.D. William of Saint-Thierry, Isaac of Stella, and Baldwin of Forde created a distinctly Cistercian body of Eucharistic theology in the twelfth century. But despite one article that examines none of the Eucharistic treatises and omits Isaac and Baldwin, there is no scholarly account of Cistercian Eucharistic theology. Nor is there more generally a historical work that examines the connection between medieval Trinitarian and Eucharistic theology. This dissertation seeks to fill both lacunae. The introduction of the dissertation sets the historical and scholarly context for investigation. Chapter 1 examines the thought of William of Saint-Thierry, who has the most developed understanding of Eucharistic presence, conversion, and reception. It also treats the connections William draws between Eucharistic reception and meditation on scripture and the passion of Christ. Chapter 2 treats Isaac of Stella, who uses more intellectualist imagery and imagery of the mystical body of Christ.

  • Cistercian Publications Cistercian Publications
    CISTERCIAN PUBLICATIONS Texts and Studies in the Monastic Tradition CistercianPublications.org • 800.436.8431 DEAR READERS, Again this year Cistercian Publications brings you a rich variety of books new and old, some just off the press, others from earlier years. They include both theology and spirituality, from Fr. Isaac Slater’s Beyond Measure to Pauline Matarasso’s Clothed in Language. Several books portray contemporary Cistercian life, such as The Letters of Blessed Gabriella, Fr. Marie-Gérard Dubois’s Happiness in God, and Fr. Bernard Bonowitz’s Truly Seeking God. We’re particularly excited about Northern Light, meditative reflections on the liturgical and calendar year by nuns at Tautra Mariakloster, on Norway’s Trondheim Fjord. This book even contains eight pages of colored photos from Tautra! We also offer you new translations of patristic and medieval works, including sermons by Bernard of Clairvaux and Isaac of Stella, and volume 5 of the Revelations of Gertrud the Great of Helfta, this one complemented by This Is My Body, Ella Johnson’s book on Saint Gertrud’s eucharistic theology and anthropology. Volume 2 of The Life of Jesus, Ludolph the Carthusian’s encyclopedic collection of early commentaries, is also now available. We also have a surprising number of books by and about Thomas Merton! You may be about ready to replace some of your older Cistercian books. Some of mine—Aelred of Rievaulx’s Mirror of Charity and the first volume of Saint Bernard’s Sermons on the Song of Songs, for example—are simply falling apart. If some of your favorites are in the same situation, new copies are always available: we keep the works of the Fathers and Mothers permanently in print in the paperback editions! In On the Soul, Aelred wrote that men and women “are fitted to cling to God,” because he placed in the soul “three things that allow it to share his eternity, participate in his wisdom, and taste his sweetness.” Those things are memory, understanding, and love.

ABSTRACT DAVID RUNCIMAN ‘Pastoral care according to the bishops of England and Wales (c.1170-1228)’ Church leaders have always been seen as shepherds, expected to feed their flock with teaching, to guide them to salvation, and to preserve them from threatening ‘wolves’. In the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries, ideas about the specifics of these pastoral duties were developing rapidly, especially in the schools of Paris and at the papal curia. Scholarly assessments of the bishops of England and Wales in this period emphasise their political and administrative activities, but there is growing interest in their pastoral role. In this thesis, the texts produced by these bishops are examined. These texts, several of which had been neglected, form a corpus of evidence that has never before been assembled. Almost all of them had a pastoral application, and thus they reveal how bishops understood and exercised their pastoral duties.
