Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a standard work of reference for the study of the religious history of western Christianity in the later middle ages which, since its original publication in French in 1981, has come to be regarded as one of the great contributions to medieval studies of recent times. Hagiographical texts and reports of the processes of canonisation - a mode of investigation into saints' lives and their miracles implemented by the popes from the end of the twelfth century - are here used for the first time as major source materials. The book illuminates the main features of the medieval religious mind, and highlights the popes' attempts to gain firmer control over the wide variety of expressions of faith towards the saints in order to promote a higher pattern of devotion and moral behaviour among Christians.

Book excerpt: Les Vies de saints sont une source de l'histoire des rois mérovingiens. L'étude d'un corpus constitué des trois écrits hagiographiques de Grégoire de Tours, la Gloire des martyrs, la Gloire des confesseurs et la Vie des Pères, et de cinquante-six Vitae composées entre le début du VIe siècle et le milieu du VIIIe siècle, met en valeur l'importance des rois mérovingiens dans les vies des Saints : les rois se posent en interlocuteurs privilégiés des saints. Les hagiographes ont célébré les relations harmonieuses entre les saints et les rois. Forts de leur auctoritas, les saints agissent en patrons royaux : ils apportent leur aide et offrent leurs conseils aux rois. Le plus souvent, les rois respectent cette auctoritas, acceptent ce patronage et mettent leur pouvoir au service de l'Eglise : les hagiographes ont souligné l'excellence des règnes de Childebert Ier et Clotaire II. Mais quelques rois, Thierry II et Childéric II, et quelques membres du palais royal, Brunehaut et Ebroi͏̈n, bafouent l'autorité des saints et martyrisent certains d'entre eux. Sous leur règne, le regnum Francorum est secoué par des maux violents et leur mort est inévitable. La Bible, les Actes des martyrs et les premières Vitae, dont la Vie de Saint Martin, ont fourni aux hagiographes des modèles de relations entre le regnum et le sacerdotium facilement transposables au contexte de la Gaule mérovingienne

Download or read book Sainted Women of the Dark Ages written by Jo Ann McNamara and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1992-03-27 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sainted Women of the Dark Ages makes available the lives of eighteen Frankish women of the sixth and seventh centuries, all of whom became saints. Written in Latin by contemporaries or near contemporaries, and most translated here for the first time, these biographies cover the period from the fall of the Roman Empire and the conversion of the invading Franks to the rise of Charlemagne's family. Three of these holy women were queens who turned to religion only after a period of intense worldly activity. Others were members of the Carolingian family, deeply implicated in the political ambitions of their male relatives. Some were partners in the great Irish missions to the pagan countryside and others worked for the physical salvation of the poor. From the peril and suffering of their lives they shaped themselves as paragons of power and achievement. Beloved by their sisters and communities for their spiritual gifts, they ultimately brought forth a new model of sanctity. These biographies are unusually authentic. At least two were written by women who knew their subjects, while others reflect the direct testimony of sisters within the cloister walls. Each biography is accompanied by an introduction and notes that clarify its historical context. This volume will be an excellent source for students and scholars of women's studies and early medieval social, religious, and political history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "When I studied these manuals, a source then little exploited, I noticed that the academic, like the merchant, was justified by reference to the labor he accomplished. The novelty of the academics thus ultimately appeared to lie in their role as intellectual workers. My attention was therefore drawn to two notions whose ideological avatars I attempted to trace through the concrete social conditions in which they developed. These notions were labor and time. Under these two heads I maintain two open files, from which some of the articles collected here are drawn. I am still persuaded that attitudes toward work and time are essential aspects of social structure and function, and that the study of such attitudes offers a useful tool for the historian who wishes to examine the societies in which they develop."--Preface, page xii

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1962, The Long-Haired Kings is split into two parts. The first is concerned with the history of France in the period of gestation, between the end of Roman imperial room in Gaul, and the emergence of medieval France in the tenth century. It is principally concerned with the Franks, their institutions, laws and writers. The second half acts as an introduction to the hitherto unpublished study of Frankish kingship and surveys Merovingian rule from its beginning in the Rhineland wastes to the metamorphosis as Carolingian rule. This book is a unique contribution to the study of medieval history and was one of the first books of its time to provide a unique study of European languages.

Book excerpt: In a fascinating work of history, Jonathan Sumption brings alive the traditions of pilgrimage prevalent in Europe from the beginning of Christianity to the end of the fifteenth century. Vividly describing such major destinations as Jerusalem, Rome, Santiago de Compostela and Canterbury, he examines both major figures - popes, kings, queens, scholars, villains - and the common people of their day. With great sympathy he evokes their achievements and failures, and addresses the question of what motivated such extraordinary quests.
