‎Monastic Communities and Canonical Clergy in the Carolingian World (780-840). Categorizing the Church‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, 454 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:4 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503579351.‎

‎Summary In the years 816-819, a series of councils was held at the imperial palace in Aachen. The goal of the meetings was to settle a number of questions about ecclesiastical organization. These issues were hotly debated throughout the Christian Roman Empire of the fourth and fifth centuries, and then reinvigorated by the renewal of empire under Charlemagne and his son Louis the Pious. At the centre of the ensuing debate stood the distinction between monks and monastic communities on the one hand, and the so-called clerici canonici and their communities on the other. Many other reforms were proposed in its wake: the position of the episcopacy needed to be renegotiated, the role of the imperial court needed to be consolidated, and the place of every Christian within the renewed Carolingian Church needed to be redefined. What started out as a seemingly straightforward reorganisation of the religious communities that dotted the Frankish ecclesiastical landscape thus quickly turned into a broad movement that necessitated an almost complete categorization of the orders of the Church. The contributions to this volume each zoom in on various aspects of these negotiations: their prehistory, their implementation, and their influence. In doing so, previously held assumptions about the scope, the goals, and the impact of the 'Carolingian Church Reforms' will also be re-assessed.

‎Convent Networks in Early Modern Italy‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Hardback, 352 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:35 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503586076.‎

‎Summary The walls of early modern convents suggested the existence of absolute conditions that seldom existed in reality. While the built enclosure communicated the convent's isolation from the world outside, connections between women religious and individuals or groups outside their communities extended into and from these houses, with each constituency exploiting these associations to serve its own aims.Likewise, the walls conveyed the presence of a homogeneous and unified community where, often, differences in status, power, and other interests led to the development of internal alliances and factions. Building on an upsurge of scholarly interest in convent networks that previously has not been focused in a single volume, this collection of interdisciplinary essays examines how and why such associations existed. The collection examines personal, spatial, and temporal networks that emerged in, among, and beyond convents in Italy during the early modern period. These ties were established, cultivated, or even rejected in a variety of ways that influenced nuns' devotional lives, their relationships with patrons, and their cultural engagement and production. These essays cover the time period before and after the Council of Trent, permitting an analysis of convents' responses to changing power dynamics, both inside and outside the enclosure. The book also engages a broad geographical and cultural range, with chapters focusing on the centres of Florence, Venice, and Rome, the courts of Urbino, Ferrara, and Mantua, and smaller cities across Northern Italy, offering unprecedented insights into early modern Italian convent life and its varied forms and modes of expression.

‎Heretics, Schismatics, or Catholics? Latin Attitudes to the Greeks in the Long Twelfth Century‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, xvi + 291 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9780888442161.‎

‎Summary The political division of the Roman world into Western and Eastern Roman Empires at the end of the fourth century spurred the divergence of the Latinised Western and the Hellenised Eastern halves. According to a pervasive and deeply ingrained belief in modern academic, educational and popular literature, the ensuing antagonism on religious and cultural grounds between the two parts of medieval Christendom eventually led to the "schism of 1054." Less than fifty years after the schism, Greeks and Latins came into closer contact as a result of the crusades and the encounter was catastrophic, leading to the capture and sack of Constantinople in 1204 by the armies of the Fourth Crusade. This study, the first to deal exclusively with Latin perceptions of and attitudes toward the Greeks in terms of religion, aims to revisit and challenge the view that the so-called schism between the Latin and Greek Churches led to the isolation of the Byzantine Empire by the Latin states and eventually to the events of 1204. Heretics, Schismatics, or Catholics? investigates a wide range of often neglected historiographical, theological, and literary sources as well as letters, and covers the period from the last quarter of the eleventh century, when Pope Gregory VII (1073-1085) first conceived the idea of the union of Christendom under papal leadership for the liberation of Eastern Christians, to the decades that followed 1204, when the crusading enterprise went out of papal control and ended up destroying the very empire which it had initially set out to defend. It brings rigorous analysis and a fresh perspective to bear on these antagonisms and divergences: it demonstrates persuasively the persistence of a paradigm of shared unity between Latins and Greeks and their polities within an integral Christendom over the course of the long twelfth century.

‎Summary Monasteries contributed to every aspect of life during the middle ages, from the structures monks built, to land management, craft production to the intellectual and spiritual life of the medieval world. There were more than 300 orders or congregations in existence during the middle ages, yet scholarship considers only a small number of them (notably Cistercians and Cluniacs), and privileges selected sites, such as Mont Saint-Michel, San Francesco in Assisi or Christ Church in Canterbury. This volume considers the history and architecture of other congregations that are essential to a more complete understanding of monasticism in the European middle ages: Augustinians, lesser known Benedictines, Carthusians, Celestines, Clarissans, and Tironensians in France, as well as the Camaldolese and Vallombrosans in Italy.

‎Taizé, une parabole d'unité. Histoire de la communauté des origines au "concile de jeunes" [trad. française de l'italien Storia della comunità dalle origini al concilio dei giovani]‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Paperback, 650 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:43 col., Language: French. ISBN 9782503585369.‎

‎Summary Chapitre important de l'histoire du XXe siècle religieux européen, l'itinéraire de la communauté de Taizé a croisé les différents événements qui ont marqué la recherche de l'unité des chrétiens divisés et l'histoire de nombreuses églises du continent entre la Seconde Guerre mondiale et la chute du rideau de fer. Première communauté cénobitique masculine née sur terrain réformé, vite devenue point de rencontre d'une sorte d'église oecuménique en gestation, Taizé a interpellé les chrétiens et les églises en des lieux et en des temps différents. Observatoire original des événements caractéristiques de la soif d'unité qui a fait irruption parmi les chrétiens au coeur du XXe siècle, Taizé attendait encore un nécessaire effort d'historicisation. Ce volume essaie de répondre à cette exigence grâce à l'étude d'une très riche documentation inédite, conservée à Taizé et en beaucoup d'autres archives européennes. Ce travail est le fruit d'une recherche de nombreuses années, consacrée aux premières décennies de l'histoire de la communauté fondée par Roger Schutz : depuis les premiers projets communautaires partagés avec quelques amis au lendemain du déclenchement de la guerre, jusqu'à l'annonce, au printemps de 1970, d'un « état conciliaire » tout à fait inédit pour sortir de l'impasse où se trouvait l'oecuménisme après les promesses du début des années 60. Les origines, l'évolution, l'accueil et les résistances rencontrées par cette création communautaire originale constituent donc l'objet de ce volume. Cette ouvrage entend donc suivre, reconstruire et documenter l'« itinérance » de Taizé entre les différentes réalités ecclésiales ainsi que le dynamisme déployé par cette communauté au long des différentes lignes de fracture de l'histoire du XXe siècle.‎

‎St Anselm and the Handmaidens of God A Study of Anselm's Correspondence with Women<br>‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2002 Hardcover. XII 336 p., 26 b/w ill., 6 b/w line art, 165 x 245 mm, Languages: English, Latin, Fine copy. Including an index. ISBN 9782503513379.‎

‎As abbot of Bec and archbishop of Canterbury, the renowned theologian St. Anselm spent most of his career working ?in the world?, primarily with laypersons, not in the cloister. His correspondence contains surprisingly many letters to laywomen, only a few perfunctory letters to nuns and abbesses. Anselm wrote to all estates of noble laywomen: young girls, mothers, mature wives or widows, countesses and queens. Vaughn argues that Anselm collected and edited his own letters, which addressed real women and situations, but also represented particular ideals of women, marriage, parents and children, students and teachers; that the correspondence, an artful construct, was almost an autobiography, teaching by word, deed, and his own example; and a lens through which to discern Anselm?s views of men and women in Anselm?s ideal society. Anselm accords women surprising equality and power, seeing queens as equal to both kings and archbishops, all three primarily as nurturers and teachers, and ideal married couples writ large ? social views modelled on past ideals (primarily St. Gregory), but ironically leaping toward new Twelfth Century attitudes of introspection, self-analysis, individualism, and logic and reason in theology, social issues, politics and law. Mothers and teachers emerge as the ultimate Handmaidens of God.‎

‎Illuminated Manuscript Production in Medieval Iceland. Literary and Artistic Activities of the Monastery at Helgafell in the Fourteenth Century‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 275 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:192 b/w, 22 col., 47 tables b/w., 2 maps b/w, Language: English.new! ISBN 9782503589022.‎

‎Summary This book examines a cultural revolution that took place in the Scandinavian artistic landscape during the medieval period. Within just one generation (c. 1340-1400), the Augustinian monastery of Helgafell became the most important centre of illuminated manuscript production in western Iceland. By conducting interdisciplinary research that combines methodologies and sources from the fields of Art History, Old Norse-Icelandic manuscript studies, codicology, and Scandinavian history, this book explores both the illuminated manuscripts produced at Helgafell and the cultural and historical setting of the manuscript production. Equally, the book explores the broader European contexts of manuscript production at Helgafell, comparing the similar domestic artistic monuments and relevant historical evidence of Norwich and surrounding East Anglia in England, northern France, and the region between Bergen and Trondheim in western Norway. The book proposes that most of these workshops are related to ecclesiastical networks, as well as secular trade in the North Sea, which became an important economic factor to western Icelandic society in the fourteenth century. The book thereby contributes to a new and multidisciplinary area of research that studies not only one but several European cultures in relation to similar domestic artistic monuments and relevant historical evidence. It offers a detailed account of this cultural site in relation to its scribal and artistic connections with other ecclesiastical and secular scriptoria in the broader North Atlantic region.

‎Summary Dismantling the Medieval studies the paradoxical relationship of the early modern canonesses of Bouxières with the medieval past of their institution. While various documentary, material, spatial, and immaterial legacies of that past remained a crucial presence in the convent's narrative of self, the canonesses also used and manipulated them to pursue and justify drastic changes in their organization and lifestyle. Thanks to an unusually rich and varied body of evidence, we are able to reconstruct in unprecedented detail this elite convent's highly flexible memory culture over a period of more than two centuries. Guiding the reader back through time, the book gradually reveals how and why the canonesses' connection to the medieval past lived on throughout many crises and transformations, including even the abbey's dissolution in 1971.
