Abstract

Recent writers in the historiography of philosophy have placed into question the paradigms that structure our historical writing. This volume continues this discussion with particular reference to medieval philosophy. Inglis shows that the modern historiography of medieval philosophy had its origins in certain nineteenth-century German reactions to Kantian idealism. He uncovers the philosophical, political, and theological origins of how we have come to interpret medieval philosophy according to the standard spheres of philosophy. By keeping such historiography in mind and paying attention to the context in which the medieval actually wrote, Inglis raises serious questions concerning the accuracy of the dominant model and proposes an historically sensitive alternative. The genealogy will interest medievalists and intellectual historians, the alternative model will interest historians of medieval philosophy, and theology.

Abstract

The concept of medieval historiography as "usable past" is here challenged and reassessed. The contributors' shared claim is that the value of medieval historiographical texts lies not only in the factual information the texts contain but also in the methods and styles they use to represent and interpret the past and make it ideologically productive. Violence is used as the key term that best demonstrates the making of historical meaning in the Middle Ages, through the transformation of acts of physical aggression and destruction into a memorable and usable past. The twelve chapters assembled here explore a wide range of texts emanating from throughout the francophone world. They cover a range of genres (chansons de geste, histories, chronicles, travel writing, and lyric poetry), and range from the late eleventh to the fifteenth century. Through examination of topics as varied as rhetoric, imagery, humor, gender, sexuality, trauma, subversion, and community formation, each chapter strives to demonstrate how knowledge of the medieval past can be enhanced by approaching medieval modes of historical representation and consciousness on their own terms, and by acknowledging - and resisting - the desire to subject them to modern conceptions of historical intelligibility.

Abstract

L’Arabe, le scolastique et le mystique sont les trois figures principales des récits qui, entre 1700 et 1900, narrent les origines médiévales de la raison moderne. De Pierre Bayle à Ernest Renan, les historiens de la philosophie et les historiens de la culture s’approprient un monde historique relégué dans l’ombre depuis la Renaissance : la philosophie du Moyen Âge. Dans leurs reconstructions, la pensée médiévale joue tantôt le rôle de repoussoir, tantôt elle se mue en berceau de la civilisation moderne. La philosophie et son histoire y côtoient des questions linguistiques, « raciales », culturelles et civilisationnelles. Cette enquête sur l’invention du médiévisme philosophique à l’âge moderne met ainsi en lumière la dimension éminemment politique de l’histoire de la philosophie.
