‎Summary 'Latin in Byzantium' explores the linguistic competence, cultural identity, and transmission of Latin texts in the 'noua Roma' between the fourth and the ninth centuries. Drawing together texts from a number of fields (e.g., law, grammar, religion, and tactics) and across a range of different forms (e.g., palaeographic, epigraphic, and papyrological), this important project provides scholars for the first time with an in-depth knowledge of both the Latin-speaking milieux in Byzantium, and of the contexts in which Latin was used. Crucially, the ancient sources studied in this volume are also analysed in their broader political and sociological context, providing rich material for study across different disciplines and making this volume an important resource for closing the gaps between literary and non-literary texts, history, and philology.

‎Crusading, Society, and Politics in the Eastern Mediterranean in the Age of King Peter I of Cyprus‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 630 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:38 col., Language(s):English, French. ISBN 9782503598567.‎

‎Summary The King of Cyprus, Peter I of Lusignan (1359-1369), was one of the most fascinating figures in the history of the Latin East and the later crusades. He was involved in European power politics, his crusading activities brought him into conflict with the Turkish beyliks of Anatolia and the Mamluk sultanate of Egypt, and his rule was closely linked with broader developments in the Eastern Mediterranean, such as the decay of Byzantium, the East-West schism, and the beginning of the Ottoman expansion in the Balkans. His adventurous life constitutes a captivating case study of court life, feudal and chivalric ethos, and political culture in the fourteenth century. This volume investigates developments in the Eastern Mediterranean before and during the reign of Peter I from a comparative perspective. It consists of five parts, which treat the political, diplomatic, and ecological context of the crusading movement in the time between the fall of Acre (1291) and the sack of Alexandria (1365), Peter I's crusading policy and the Alexandrian crusade, Cypriot society and court life in the time of Peter I, the situation in Muslim-Turkish Anatolia, the second target of King Peter's crusading policy, and, finally, Byzantium, its encounter with the Turks, the schism of the Churches, and theological trends in the time of the Hesychast Controversy.

‎Compilatio singularis exemplorum‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, cxl + 853 pages, Size:155 x 245 mm, Language: Latin. ISBN 9782503593081.‎

‎Summary Die Compilatio singularis exemplorum ist eine Exempelsammlung, die gegen Ende des 13. Jahrhundert von einem anonymen französischen Dominikaner zusammengestellt wurde. Sie enthält neben vielen auch anderweitig breit und variantenreich überlieferten Stoffen einiges sonst nur selten erhaltene oder gänzlich unbekannte Erzählgut. Zudem hebt sie sich von den meisten anderen Exempelsammlungen durch das ihr zugrundeliegende Gliederungsprinzip ab, welches sich an der Dreiteilung der mittelalterlichen Christenheit in Säkularklerus, Regularklerus und Laienstand orientiert: Streng hierarchisch geordnet, werden der Reihe nach Geschichten über die Mitglieder dieser drei Stände erzählt. Von den Päpsten bis hinab zu den Theologiestudenten, von den Äbten und Abtissinnen bis hinab zu den Laienbrüdern und Beginen, von den Kaisern und Königen bis hinab zu den gesellschaftlichen Randexistenzen wird vor uns das ganze Panoptikum der spätmittelalterlichen Gesellschaft entfaltet. Dem so entworfenen Abbild der Menschenwelt werden in den ersten Teilen der Sammlung eine Marienvita, zahlreiche Marienmirakel, Hostienwunder, Kreuzzugsgeschichte und einige Geschichten über die Engel vorangestellt. Lediglich der letzte, vermutlich sekundär hinzugefügte Teil der Sammlung weicht von der Gesamtkonzeption des Werkes ab. Er vereint in sich eine Liste altfranzösischer Sprichwörter nebst deren lateinischen Nachdichtungen, Proben der Vagantenpoesie des Hugo Primas und weitere Verse erbaulichen und unterhaltsamen Inhalts. Der lateinische Text der Sammlung ist stellenweise von altfranzösischen Einsprengseln durchsetzt, die in einigen Fällen das Ausmaß kleinerer Gedichte erreichen. Er wird hier zum ersten Mal vollständig nach allen drei bekannten Überlieferungsträgern, Handschriften des 14. und 15. Jahrhunderts, kritisch herausgegeben.‎

‎Summary This volume gathers the papers presented during an interdisciplinary research seminar entitled "The individual and his body in the Ancient Mediterranean Basin." This seminar was at the crossroads of history of religions and social anthropology, creating a dialogue between philologists, archaeologists, historians of religions and anthropologists. Its main aim consisted in studying self-perceptions of the body in the Ancient Near East, with incursions in other parts of the Mediterranean Basin in a comparatist perspective. In this volume, various themes are examined, such as: 1) the relationship between the body and language; 2) the body, perceptions and society, including a study of the senses as they are described in the texts; 3) the body as a symbol of social belonging; 4) the body as a medium for religious experience.

‎Fourth Lateran Council and the Development of Canon Law and the ius commune‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, 331 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Languages: English, French, Italian. ISBN 9782503583013.‎

‎Summary This volume collects essays from an international group of scholars who treat various aspects of the Fourth Lateran Council's placement within the development of the ius commune. Topics include the canon law about armsbearing clergy, episcopal elections, heresy, degrees of affinity within marriage, the oversight of relic veneration; two essays highlight the council's reaction to the Fourth Crusade's sack of Constantinople in trying to incorporate the eastern church into the ecclesiastical structure and liturgical norms of the Roman Church; several essays concentrate on the usage of Roman or civil law in some of Lateran IV's constitutions and emphasize issues of private and procedural law. Collectively, and headed by an essay by Anne J. Duggan on the relationship of Pope Alexander III's pontificate to the Lateran IV constitutions, the essays create a fuller picture of Innocent III and his curia's reliance on developments within the jurisprudence of the preceding half century, but they also reveal the ways in which they forged new paths and made significant contributions to guide canon law in the years following the council.

‎, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, xiv + 270 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:161 b/w, 6 col., 43 tables b/w., 1 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503609393.‎

‎Summary The Early Bronze Age site of Jebel al-Mutawwaq, located on a hill overlooking the Zarqa River in Jordan, was a thriving centre of population from the second half of the fourth millennium into the third millennium BCE. During this time, the settlement developed both in population and social complexity, undergoing the beginnings of an urbanization process that fundamentally changed the relationship between this community of the Transjordanian Highlands with the surrounding landscape, until it was completely abandoned around 2900 BCE. This volume offers a new assessment of the site by combining data from the first surveys of the site, under a Spanish team led by J. A. Fernandez-Tresguerres, with the new results from six seasons of excavations led by teams from Perugia in Italy, and San Esteban in Spain. In doing so, this work sheds new light on this walled settlement and its huge megalithic necropolises, and offers a fresh understanding of the site.

‎Summary This volume investigates settlement trajectories and systems of movement in the Birecik-Carchemish sector of the Euphrates River Valley from the fifth to the third millennium BCE. Integrating remote sensing analyses, published data of individual surveys and excavations, and the original results of the ?Land of Carchemish Project', this multi-scalar study shows the significant longevity of settlement choices and the role of small sites in shaping the cultural landscape of the region, both along the Euphrates and in the uplands. Attention is paid to the dynamics behind settlement creation and continuity, while the author also provides a reassessment of the radiocarbon dates from sites in the area of study.

‎Ponce Pilate. La construction d?une figure dans la littérature patristique et apocryphe‎

‎, Brepols - Institut d'Etudes Augustiniennes, 2023 Paperback, 878 pages, Size:165 x 245 mm, Language(s):French, Greek, Latin. ISBN 9782851213075.‎

‎Summary This monograph is the first study to highlight the plasticity of the figure of Pilate across Christian literature of the first millennium, as transmitted in Greek, Latin, Coptic, Syriac, Ge'ez, Armenian, Georgian, Slavic and Arabic. The name of the person Pilate is present in the memoirs and in the confessions of faith for the role of this Roman praefectus of Judea in the central event of Christianity which is the death sentence of Jesus of Nazareth. However, we only know his character as it was constructed by the authors of the first century - the Jewish writers, the authors of the Gospels which have become canonical or of the texts called apocrypha. It is from these sources that the authors of the patristic period elaborate figures of Pilate based on their analysis of his role in the Passion. Like the emperor depicted in the apocryphal texts, they in turn put Pilate on trial: how could the human judge judge the Judge of the universe? Who is responsible for the death of Jesus? Even though it is very largely sullied in the medieval West, the triune figure of Pilate as governor, judge and Roman is enriched with the features of the informant, of the evangelizer of the emperor, and even of the martyr and the saint. Cette monographie est la première étude mettant en évidence la plasticité de la figure de Pilate à travers la littérature chrétienne du premier millénaire, transmise en grec, latin, copte, syriaque, guèze, arménien, géorgien, slave et arabe. Le nom de la personne Pilate est présent dans les mémoires et dans les confessions de foi pour le rôle de ce préfet romain de Judée dans l'événement central du christianisme qu'est la condamnation à mort de Jésus de Nazareth. On ne connaît pourtant de lui que le personnage construit par les auteurs du Ier siècle - les écrivains juifs, les auteurs des évangiles devenus canoniques ou des textes appelés apocryphes. C'est à partir de ces sources que les auteurs de la période patristique élaborent des figures de Pilate fondées sur leur analyse de son rôle dans la Passion. Tels l'empereur mis en scène dans les textes apocryphes, ils font à leur tour le procès de Pilate : comment le juge humain a-t-il pu juger le Juge de l'univers ? Qui est responsable de la mort de Jésus ? Alors même qu'elle est très largement noircie dans l'Occident médiéval, la figure trine de Pilate comme gouverneur, juge et Romain s'enrichit des traits de l'informateur, voire de l'évangélisateur de l'empereur, et même du martyr et du saint.

‎Popes, Bishops, and the Progress of Canon Law, c.1120-1234‎

‎Summary Bishops have always played a central role in the making and enforcement of the law of the Church, and none more so than the bishop of Rome. From convening and presiding over church councils to applying canon law in church courts, popes and bishops have exercised a decisive influence on the history of that law. This book, a selection of Anne J. Duggan's most significant studies on the history of canon law, highlights the interactive role of popes and bishops, and other prelates, in the development of ecclesiastical law and practice between 1120 and 1234. This emphasis directly challenges the pervasive influence of the concept of 'papal monarchy', in which popes, and not diocesan bishops and their legal advisers, have been seen as the driving force behind the legal transformation of the Latin Church in the twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. Contrary to the argument that the emergence of the papacy as the primary judicial and legislative authority in the Latin Church was the result of a deliberate programme of papal aggrandizement, the principal argument of this book is that the processes of consultation and appeal reveal a different picture: not of a relentless papal machine but of a constant dialogue between diocesan bishops and the papal Curia, in which the 'papal machine' evolved to meet the demand.

‎siècle des saints. Le VIIe siècle dans les récits hagiographiques‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Hardback, 258 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:1 b/w, Language :French. ISBN 9782503590356.‎

‎Summary Les Vies de saints représentent la principale source d'informations sur la vie religieuse, sociale et politiques du royaume mérovingien à son apogée, sous les règnes de Clotaire II (613-629), de Dagobert Ier (629-639) puis de ses fils. Elles viennent ainsi compléter les informations fournies par la principale chronique de cette période dite « de Frédégaire ». Ce recueil rassemble des traductions inédites de Vies particulièrement représentatives. Elles montrent des évêques dans leurs activités administratives et politiques au sein de vieilles cités de fondation romaine (Didier de Vienne et Arnoul de Metz) comme dans les missions de conversion dans les marges du royaume (Amand dans la vallée de l'Escaut, Omer le long du littoral flamand) et, au-delà, jusqu'en Frise (Vulfran) et dans la lointaine Angleterre qui maintenait toutefois des liens étroits avec le continent ce qui justifie la présence de la Vie de saint Wilfrid d'York dans ce recueil. Le monde monastique est représenté par des fondateurs d'abbayes qui acquirent dès le VIIe siècle un rôle religieux, social et politique considérable : à Laon (Salaberge), Nivelles (Gertrude), Sithiu, aujourd'hui Saint-Omer (Bertin), Jumièges puis Noirmoutier (Philibert) et Chelles où se retira la reine Bathilde au début des années 660. Enfin, le célèbre récit de la vision du moine Baronte est un témoignage original de la spiritualité monastique du temps. TABLE OF CONTENTS Avant-propos Introduction.

‎Liber de ordine creaturarum‎

‎, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 191 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language(s):English, Latin. ISBN 9782503596785.‎

‎Summary The Liber de ordine creaturarum is an anonymous Latin work with an Irish provenance that dates back to the seventh century. It presents the creation as the divine handiwork and is notable for serving as both a commentary on the Hexaemeron (Six-day Work) in Genesis and as one of the earliest works of systematic theology. Although previously attributed to Isidore of Seville, the Liber de ordine creaturarum is far more than a mere compilation of 'authorities.' Instead, it emphasizes the inherent order that exists within the creation itself.

‎visages du cardinal. Construction et transformations de l?identité symbolique et matérielle du cardinalat à la fin du Moyen Âge et sous la première Renaissance‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 292 pages, Size:178 x 254 mm, Illustrations:48 col., Language: French. ISBN 9782503598239.‎

‎Summary Le cardinalat, depuis la fin du XIVème siècle jusqu'au début du XVIème siècle, est une entité en transformation, rythmée par les crises successives que traverse l'Eglise d'Occident. Ces crises et les transformations socio-culturelles du Quattrocento ont amené les théoriciens du cardinalat - qu'ils soient juristes, théologiens ou diplomates - à reconsidérer à la fois la place et les modes représentation des cardinaux, influençant également leur incarnation matérielle, et en nous laissant de riches témoignages sur leur réflexion. L'étude présente entend analyser le développement, les transformations, et les perceptions des représentations symboliques et matérielles de l'identité cardinalice idéale depuis le Moyen Âge tardif jusqu'à l'orée de la Réforme. Les éléments mis à jour sur la construction et les mutations de l'identité cardinalice idéale correspondent parfaitement au phénomène transitionnel associé à ce siècle. Le cardinalat apparaît, à travers l'ensemble des sources, comme un palimpseste sur lequel se réécrit constamment les empreintes de sa construction symbolique, matérielle et théorique, chaque couche laissant des traces visibles à celui qui en fait la lecture. Les formes de représentations pérennes qui définissaient le cardinalat et qui apportaient à la fois une justification sacrée et politique par la revendication d'origines prestigieuses finissent au Quattrocento par s'étioler ou se transformer pour laisser place à de nouvelles formes. Ces « couches successives » forment tout entières cette identité cardinalice, qui ne peut se concevoir que de façon multiple par la diversité et la richesse de son développement.
