    1 The Oxford map of Palestine in the work of Matthew Paris Matthew Paris, or Matthew the Parisian, born about 1200, served as the chronicler of St. Albans Abbey from 1237 until his death in 1259. Unlike some other monastic chronicles, Matthew’s work is anything but dull. He was long-winded, opinionated, cranky, and interested in everything. He moves from politics at court, to the abuses of ecclesiastical power, to foreign relations, to peculiar meteorological and astronomical occurrences, to uncanny incidents. A staunch Benedictine, he had a low opinion of other monastic orders, especially those of more recent foundation, and he was quick to condemn what he felt to be unwarranted impositions on his beloved abbey. While we know little about the details of his personal life, we know a great deal about what he thought. Toward the end of his life, feeling perhaps that he had been a little too outspoken, he attempted to censor some of his strongest statements.1 He had a strong visual sense, and ornamented his text with lively drawings of Crusaders in battle, horrific martyrdoms, and perilous sea voyages. He also made copies of notable works of art,2 and, most important for us, he made a series of maps unprecedented in their variety and quality. Some are diagrams, such as the wind diagrams, one showing the classical twelve winds with their ancient names along with the names used by contemporary seamen. Another diagram of the Heptarchy, the division of kingdoms in ancient Britain, is an abstract floral design,3 while a drawing of the four Roman roads4 is equally divorced from geography.

    Vision, Devotion, and Self Representation in Late

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-03222-4 - Vision, Devotion, and Self-Representation in Late Medieval Art Alexa Sand Frontmatter More information VISION, DEVOTION, AND SELFREPRESENTATION IN LATE MEDIEVAL ART This book investigates the “owner portrait” in the context of late medieval devo- tional books primarily from France and England. These mirror-like pictures of praying book owners respond to and help develop a growing concern with visibility and self-scrutiny that characterized the religious life of the laity after the Fourth Lateran Council in 1215. The image of the praying book owner translated preexist- ing representational strategies concerned with the authority and spiritual effi cacy of pictures and books, such as the Holy Face and the donor image, into a more inti- mate and refl exive mode of address in Psalters and Books of Hours created for lay users. Alexa Sand demonstrates how this transformation had profound implications for devotional practices and for the performance of gender and class identity in the striving, aristocratic world of late medieval France and England. Alexa Sand is associate professor of art history at Caine College of the Arts, Utah State University. She has published articles in The Art Bulletin , Gesta , Yale French Studies , Word and Image , the Huntington Library Quarterly , Studies in Iconography , and a number of edited essay collections.

    Notes on Theatricality in Jacques Derrida's "Envois"

    Title: Apostrophe and apocalypse : notes on theatricality in Jacques Derrida's "Envois" Author: Michał Kisiel Citation style: Kisiel Michał. (2017). Apostrophe and apocalypse : notes on theatricality in Jacques Derrida's "Envois". “Theoria et Historia Scientiarum” (Vol. 14 (2017), s. 27-37, DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12775/ths.2017.002 THEORIA ET HISTORIA SCIENTIARUM, VOL. XIV Ed. Nicolaus Copernicus University 2017 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12775/ths.2017.002 Michał Kisiel Institute of English Cultures and Literatures University of Silesia in Katowice [email protected] Apostrophe and Apocalypse: Notes on Theatricality in Jacques Derrida’s “Envois” Abstract. This article aims at uncovering and interpreting the selected theatrical tropes in Jacques Derrida’s “Envois” in relation to an interpretative path paved by Samuel Weber in Theatricality as Medium. Following Weber’s intuitions, “Envois” is read as a process of staging the postulates posed by Derrida in his previous works, including “Freud and the Scene of Writing” or “Envoi.” The logic of staging, as it is argued, relies first and foremost on the trope of apostrophe, understood both as an act of addressing somebody and a punctuation mark. Derrida’s spectral correspondence—in which addressees, addressers, destinations, and postcards themselves engage in an ongoing play of hide and seek—employs the performative aspect of apostrophe in order to keep the deconstructive wheel in motion, in search of the genuine intimacy with the other. By means of numerous encrypted and deciphered events, actual and fictional encounters, allusions to the fort/da scene and the mirror stage, or the revisions of Matthew Paris’s illustration of Socrates and Plato, Derrida invites readers to immerse themselves in the ghostly exchange and its inherent temporal and spatial twists; the stake of this task is to follow the link joining apo-strophe with apo-calypse, with regard to the catastrophe that resides between them.

Within the chronicle, allegations of Jewish ritual murder rested alongside classical sources in various languages, including Greek, Latin, Arabic, and Hebrew. Matthew Paris’s Chronica Majora and Allegations of Jewish Ritual Murder David A. Meier, Dickinson State University Allegations of Jewish ritual murder in medieval European chronicles rested alongside classical sources in various languages, including Greek, Latin, Arabic, and Hebrew. Hartmann Schedel’s Weltchronik 1493 (2001) depicted Simon of Trent’s alleged murder by the local Jewish community in 1475 in a manner that mirrored alleged Jewish ritual murders in England in 1144 and 1255.1 Between 1144 and 1493, allegations of Jewish ritual murder spread and flourished. Matthew Paris’s Chronica Majora emerged at historical crossroads where allegations of Jewish ritual murder spread beyond England and into continental Europe. Before the century finished in 1290, England had expelled its Jewish population inspiring many regions on the continent to follow suit in the coming years.2 In offering a written record, chroniclers bridged narrative history from ancient times (largely Biblical) with contemporary culture, history, society, politics and nascent legal systems, employed, in turn, by both church and state in the High Middle Ages.

  • The Englishman Who Became a Pope

    The Englishman Who Became a Pope

    THE EXGLISHMAX WHO BECA^IE A POPE BY J. V. NASH THE recent agreement entered into between Premier ]\lussolini and the Vatican, resulting in the restoration—along much re- stricted Hnes—of the temporal power of the Pope, opens up a num- ber of unusual prospects for the future of the papacy. For instance, there is the possibility of the election, for the first time since the Reformation, of a non-Italian Pope. While the relations of Italy and the Vatican were still unsettled, the choice of a foreign Pope would have been extremely hazardous. The Italian government, if brought into conflict with an alien Pontiff, might have used his nationalty as an excuse for his expulsion from Italy and possibly for abolishing the papacy or subjecting it to the secular power. But since the \^atican has secured the rights of a sovereign nation, under treaty guaranties, these difficulties disappear, and the question already is being asked, will the next Pope be an American ? Although in pre-Reformation days there were many non-Italian Popes, it is curious that Ireland, for centuries the chief bulwark of Catholicism in northern Europe and famed as "the Isle of Saints," whence missionaries went out to convert European pagans, has never given a Pope to the Church, while Anglo-Saxon England can claim at least one Roman Pontiff. Stranger still, it has been charged—rightly or wrongly—that this English Pope was the cause of Ireland's long political subjection to England, from which she has only in our own day to a large extent freed herself.
