Studies in the History of Istanbul Jewry, 1453-1923 A Journey through Civilizations
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2015 Hardback.XIV+518 p., 55 b/w ill. + 8 colour ill., 12 b/w tables, 15 b/w line art, 156 x 234 mm, 2015 Languages: English. ISBN 9782503541761.
A cross-cultural and cross-temporal journey in the city of Istanbul and its Jewish community from the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople (1453) to the establishment of the Turkish Republic (1923). This book presents ten chapters in the history of the Jewish community of Istanbul from the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople (1453) to the establishment of the Turkish Republic (1923). While delving into specific subjects such as the Romaniot presence in the city, the Karaite society, family life throughout the generations, material culture and its meaning, social life, urban history, economic life, and relations with the Ottoman regime, a common thread binds all of them. Each of the chapters, individually and together, constitutes a journey between different cultures and religions. The history of Istanbul?s Jews carries the imprint of Greek Orthodoxy and Catholicism, as well as Islam. It moves in cycles between the Byzantine and Ottoman realms, between Catholic Europe and the Muslim Ottoman Empire, and finally, between the Ottoman Jewish culture and a modern Europe in the throes of secularization. Over fifty images are included to illustrate the multicultural aspect of the history presented here. The essays in this volume present high quality scholarship, but equally they provide a fascinating insight to general readers with an interest in Constantinople-Istanbul-Qosta, as well as readers interested in Jewish urban history, the transmission of culture, and multiculturalism. Prof. Minna Rozen teaches Jewish History and Philosophy of History at the University of Haifa. She specializes in the history of the early modern and modern Mediterranean and has published extensively in this field. Prof. Rozen has initiated and conducted a number of documentation and digitization projects of Jewish archives, cemeteries and synagogues in Turkey, Greece and Bulgaria, and she is currently working on the establishment of an online, searchable database of digital archives of Jewish tombstones from Turkey.
Tolerancia: teoria y practica en la Edad Media, Actas del Coloquio de Mendoza (15-18 de junio de 2011)
, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2012 Hardcover. XXI 295 p., 165 x 240 mm, Languages: Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Including an index. Fine copy. ISBN 9782503545530.
El concepto de tolerancia no es simple y admite una multiplicidad de comprensiones y matices que se han ido desarrollando y perfeccionando a lo largo de los siglos. No se trata, por eso mismo, de un termino totalmente univoco que haya mantenido la integridad de sus notas esenciales de un modo inalterado a traves del tiempo sino que ha sido justamente el tiempo, el pensamiento y la practica de las sociedades humanas los que han modelado un valor que, en la actualidad, es indiscutido. Es precisamente por este motivo que cada epoca historica ha conocido diversas conceptualizaciones y practicas de la tolerancia. El Coloquio Anual de la FIDEM 2011, realizado en la Universidad Nacional de Cuyo (Mendoza) discutio acerca de la teoria y la practica de la tolerancia durante la Edad Media, y son sus resultados los que se exponen en este volumen. Esta tematica puede ser abordada desde dos angulos diversos. Por un lado, la teoria del concepto, y es por eso que varios capitulos del libro se aplican a analizarla desde el punto de vista filosofico a traves de las obras de una serie de importantes autores que abarcan varios siglos de pensamiento, desde la Patristica hasta la Edad Media tardia, incluyendo tambien a los representantes de la denominada ?escolastica colonial?. Por otro lado, la practica de la tolerancia durante el largo periodo medieval es tambien tenida en cuenta a traves de diversas disciplinas interesadas en el medioevo, tales como la historia y la literatura.
Law and Sovereignty in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance ,
Turnhout, Brepols, Hardback, XVIII 302 p., 13 b/w ill., 156 x 234 mm. ISBN 9782503533094.
This volume offers an interdisciplinary collection of original essays by both new and established scholars that surveys the complex relationships between law and sovereign power in medieval and early modern Europe. Sovereignty, law, and the relationship between them are now among the most compelling topics in history, philosophy, literature and art. Some argue that the state?s power over the individual has never been more complete, while for others, such factors as globalization and the internet are subverting traditional political forms. This book exposes the roots of these arguments in the Middle Ages and Renaissance. The thirteen contributions investigate theories, fictions, contestations, and applications of sovereignty and law from the Anglo-Saxon period to the seventeenth century, and from England across western Europe to Germany, France, Italy, and Spain. Particular topics include: Habsburg sovereignty, Romance traditions in Arthurian literature, the duomo in Milan, the political theories of Juan de Mariana and of Richard Hooker, Geoffrey Chaucer?s legal problems, the accession of James I, medieval Jewish women, Elizabethan diplomacy, Anglo-Saxon political subjectivity, and medieval French farce. Together these contributions constitute a valuable overview of the history of medieval and Renaissance law and sovereignty in several disciplines. They will appeal to not only to political historians, but also to all those interested in the histories of art, literature, religion, and culture. Robert Sturges is Professor of English at Arizona State University, where he teaches late medieval literature and literary theory. Arizona Studies in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance (ASMAR 28).

Drawings of Paul Bril, A Study of Their Role in 17th Century European Landscape. This monograph provides an analysis of Paul Bril?s specific contribution to the development of landscape art in Rome and his achievements as a guiding force to two generations of Netherlandish artists who visited Rome.
, Brepols, Turnhout, 2007., 279 p., + ill., 190 x 250 mm, 1999, Hardback.Pictura Nova fine condition ! ISBN 9782503505770.
After defining Bril as a draughtsman, this study clarifies aspects of his working methods and determines the types and functions of his drawings. It places Bril in the context of contemporary landscape draughtmanship and analyzes Bril's specific contribution to the evolution of the genre in Rome, from the mannerist views of Girolamo Muziano to the pastoral landscapes and seascapes of Claude Lorrain. Bril's position as a guiding force to two generations of Netherlandish artists who visited Rome and the influence Bril exerted on the development of landscape is also investigated. The final section of the study is a catalogue raisonne of Bril's drawings. While any catalogue raisonne is by nature evolving, the attempt to establish a secure canon is very important in finally placing Bril and his contemporaries in the correct perspective.

First printing of the founding paper on Oceanography, describing the experiments leading to the discovery of the convection currents in the sea. Cold water at depth in the tropics implies a meriodinal circulation transporting deep water from the polar regions towards the equator. Water cooled at the surface in high latitudes gets denser and hence descends.

The experiments confirm the hypothesis, justifying his conclusion that heat is not a material substance as others had believed. He goeson to equate heat to motion.""(Parkinson in ""Breakthroughs"" 1798 P.)
