Abstract

In this volume, thirteen of the world’s leading scholars of medieval France explore some of the most important ideas, events, personalities, and artistic creations of the Capetian world (987–1328). From some of the earliest medieval attempts to make narrative treatments of French history, through the invention of the schools, the creation of Gothic architecture, the practices of chivalry, the practice of statecraft, and the promulgation of law codes, the volume offers a panoramic view of the kingdom and the era that has come to define the medieval world in both the scholarly and popular imaginations.The scholars brought together in this volume share as well a common sense of gratitude and an intellectual debt to Elizabeth A. R. Brown, whose own rigour and brilliance has inspired their work and shaped their sense of the past. Political Ritual and Practice in Capetian France is both a tribute to a scholar of real accomplishment and a collection of original scholarship raised upon on the foundations that Elizabeth A. R. Brown herself set down

Abstract

Depuis sa fondation en Espagne, à la fin des années 1920, uns institution de 85 000 membres suscite maintes interrogations dans le grand public. Il s'agit de l'Opus Dei ; ou " Œuvre de Dieu ", à laquelle on imputait déjà bien des maux, avant que des romanciers comme Dan Brown (Da Vinci Code) ne le décrivent en termes résolument inquiétants. On accuse l'Opus Dei de sectarisme, d'élitisme excessif, de manipulation. Autre accusation, elle se livrerait à des opérations financières douteuses et à des complots, ce qui expliquerait sa richesse. Le recrutement de ses membres serait discutable, et ceux-ci feraient l'objet d'une surveillance intolérable. Cette " franc-maçonnerie blanche ", dont le travail caritatif est reconnu, aurait aussi tous les aspects d'une société secrète, les femmes y seraient dévalorisées, et on s'y livrerait à des pratiques masochistes. La personnalité du fondateur de l'Opus Dei, Josemaria Escriva, soulève également plusieurs questions. Prêtre fasciste et intégriste pour les uns, saint homme visionnaire pour les autres, il fut canonisé de manière expéditive, et sa personnalité n'est pas exempte de zones d'ombre. Qu'en est-il au juste de cette organisation aux allures de sectes que d'aucuns voudraient exposer au grand jour et placer sous haute surveillance ? John L. Allen a consacré une année de sa vie à élucider ce dossier complexe. A la suite de plusieurs voyages en Europe, en Afrique et dans les Amériques, après avoir rencontré des centaines de personnes, enregistré plus de 300 heures d'interview et discuté avec des sympathisants et des opposants de l'Opus Dei, il livre ici la première étude sérieuse sur ce sujet. L'accès privilégié de l'auteur à des sources et à des documents inédits lève le voile sur une puissance controversée, et cette enquête exhaustive nous fait découvrir combien, parfois, la réalité dépasse la fiction

Abstract

The Festschrift volume Classica et Beneventana, presented to Virginia Brown on the occasion of her 65th birthday, brings together eighteen insightful new essays by leading scholars devoted to the fields of classical reception and Latin palaeography. The authors investigate a wide-range of topics such as the development and application of the Beneventan script, comparative codicology, use of early liturgical manuscripts, medieval artes and biblical texts and their readers, and the reception and dissemination of classical texts during the Italian Renaissance.Since 1970, Virginia Brown has been a Senior Research Fellow at the Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies. She is recognized as one of the world’s leading authorities in classical reception and Latin palaeography. Her numerous publications on the Beneventan script have dramatically altered our knowledge of the dissemination of this southern Italian book hand from 800 to 1600. Her editorial work for the Catalogus translationum et commentariorum, as a member of the Editorial Board and since 1986 as Editor-in-Chief, has resulted in several learned volumes tracing the fortuna and study of classical authors from antiquity to the year 1600. As editor of Mediaeval Studies from 1975 to 1988, she single-handedly produced tomes noted for their scholarly rigor and acumen. This collection of essays serves as fitting tribute to a scholar who, via her scholarly research and editorial work, has done so much to advance the fields of palaeography, codicology, and the history of classical scholarship.
