The issue of whether the writings of Thomas Aquinas show internal contradictions has not only stirred readers from his earliest, often critical, reception, but also led to the emergence of a literary genre that has crucial relevance to the history of medieval Thomism. Concordances were drawn up which listed Thomas’ contradictory statements and, in most cases, tried to disguise the appearance of contradiction by exegesis. But what was at stake in this interpretive endeavor? What role did the concordances play in shaping Thomism? What tensions did they reveal in the works of Thomas? The book aims to investigate these questions and puts the concordance of Peter of Bergamo (†1482), which represents the most important example of this type of text, at the center of the investigation. Contributors are Marieke Abram, Kent Emery, Jr., Maarten J.F.M. Hoenen, Isabel Iribarren, Thomas Jeschke, Catherine König-Pralong, Mario Meliadò, Silvia Negri, Zornitsa Radeva, and Peter Walter.

Em Junho de 2000, na Universidade de Évora, teve lugar um colóquio cujo objectivo foi a discussão dos problemas metodológicos em torno do estudo das élites e das redes clientelares na época medieval. O que este volume apresenta sao as comunicacóes que, então, estiveram na base dos debates, afinal o ponto essencial desse encontró. Como todos os que estiveram presentes podem testemunhar, é justo dizer que os discussóes foram sempre interessantes e, por vezes, bastante animadas. Se não é possivel fazer aqui reflectir totalmente o espirito e o ambiente desse encontro, a apresentação das comunicações é, por si só, suficientemente interessante para justificar a sua publicação. O coloquio tinha por base o Projecto PRAXIS XXI Elites e redes clientelares na Idade Media. Uma observação centrada em Évora, e o leitor fica prevenido que ele terá urna segunda parte, que incluirá a apresentação de resultados, deste e de outros projectos e trabalhos. Se nos textos é já compreensível que estas élites medievais representavam urna oligarquía, escapam-nos ainda parte das suas ligacões e das suas rivalidades; das formas de expressão e de dominação política que vão construindo, a nivel local ou nacional, bem como a coerência do seu discurso, ou discursos, de poder. Porque é no plural que estas elites deverão ser observadas e entendidas. Julgamos, por isso, que nunca será demais insistir no carácter multifacetado das élites medievais.
