Book Synopsis Nature, Man, and Society in the Twelfth Century by : M-D Chenu
Download or read book Nature, Man, and Society in the Twelfth Century written by M-D Chenu and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1997-01-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nine essays in this collection, selected from La théologie au douzième siècle, inquire into the historical context and origins of medieval scholasticism. They are representative of Chenu's finest work. 'If Père Chenu considers "history of theology" to be the central concern of this collection, it is because he conceives of theology as an all-encompassing science, one which reflects the comprehensive unity of intellectual life as that develops within a culture. Literary history and criticism, cultural history, philosophy, biblical exegesis, historiography, ecclesiastical and social history, the history of education-all these and more are here involved, in their interdependence.' -- From the Translators' Note First published as La théologie au douzième siècle by J. Vinn, 1957. English translation published by University of Chicago Press, 1968

Book Synopsis Platonism and Poetry in the Twelfth Century by : Winthrop Wetherbee
Download or read book Platonism and Poetry in the Twelfth Century written by Winthrop Wetherbee and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-03-08 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chartres as an intellectual and cultural force in the Renaissance of the twelfth century has engaged the attention of critics and scholars from R. L. Poole through Gilson, Curtius, and Huizinga to, most recently, Peter Dronke. Its importance as a poetic tradition is now reviewed by Winthrop Wetherbee, first as it developed at Chartres, then as it influenced later poetry, French as well as Latin. Mr. Wetherbee analyzes, and supports with his own translations, the poetry notably of Bernardus Silvestrus and Alain dc Lille: he defines the intellectual milieu of the Chartrian poets and their Platonic conception of nature, man, and poetry. Myth, philosophy, and the literary statement that gives them poetic being are Mr. Wetherbee's essential concern, as they were in fact the concern of the poets he discusses. Originally published in 1972. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Synopsis The Origins of Higher Learning by : Roy Lowe
Download or read book The Origins of Higher Learning written by Roy Lowe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Higher education has become a worldwide phenomenon where students now travel internationally to pursue courses and careers, not simply as a global enterprise, but as a network of worldwide interconnections. The Origins of Higher Learning: Knowledge networks and the early development of universities is an account of the first globalisation that has led us to this point, telling of how humankind first developed centres of higher learning across the vast landmass from the Atlantic to the China Sea. This book opens a much-needed debate on the origins of higher learning, exploring how, why and where humankind first began to take a sustained interest in questions that went beyond daily survival. Showing how these concerns became institutionalised and how knowledge came to be transferred from place to place, this book explores important aspects of the forerunners of globalisation. It is a narrative which covers much of Asia, North Africa and Europe, many parts of which were little known beyond their own boundaries. Spanning from the earliest civilisations to the end of the European Middle Ages, around 700 years ago, here the authors set out crucial findings for future research and investigation. This book shows how interconnections across continents are nothing new and that in reality, humankind has been interdependent for a much longer period than is widely recognised. It is a book which challenges existing accounts of the origins of higher learning in Europe and will be of interest to all those who wish to know more about the world of academia.

Book Synopsis Bridging the Medieval-Modern Divide by : James Muldoon
Download or read book Bridging the Medieval-Modern Divide written by James Muldoon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The debate about when the middle ages ended and the modern era began, has long been a staple of the historical literature. In order to further this debate, and illuminate the implications of a longue durée approach to the history of the Reformation, this collection offers a selection of essays that address the medieval-modern divide. Covering a broad range of topics - encompassing legal, social, cultural, theological and political history - the volume asks fundamental questions about how we regard history, and what historians can learn from colleagues working in other fields that may not at first glance appear to offer any obvious links. By focussing on the concept of the medieval-modern divide - in particular the relation between the Middle Ages and the Reformation - each essay examines how a medievalist deals with a specific topic or issue that is also attracting the attention of Reformation scholars. In so doing it underlines the fact that both medievalists and modernists are often involved in bridging the medieval-modern divide, but are inclined to construct parallel bridges that end between the two starting points but do not necessarily meet. As a result, the volume challenges assumptions about the strict periodization of history, and suggest that a more flexible approach will yield interesting historical insights.

Book Synopsis Love in Twelfth-Century France by : John C. Moore
Download or read book Love in Twelfth-Century France written by John C. Moore and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Great is the force of love, wondrous is its strength. Many are the degrees of love . . . and who can worthily distinguish among them?" cried the twelfth-century cleric, Richard of St. Victor. What relationships, human and divine, are appropriate to this protean creature, man with his great gifts and imperative appetites? The different answers given this question by the monks and scholars, the courtly poets and bawdy ballad writers of medieval France form the substance of hits graceful and perceptive book, written for student and general reader alike. And while the conventions of love among twelfth-century Frenchmen differ from our own, their efforts to comprehend its true meaning and nature have a very contemporary relevance. France in the twelfth century was a bustling country of expanding economic and social horizons, with a thirst for knowledge that stimulated far-ranging intellectual inquiry. The great classical writers, the Greek and Roman Fathers of the early Church, the Old and New Testaments: such were the sources upon which French scholars drew. For the great monastic writers, love was a spiritual value, achieved through unending effort and discipline. The poets of the courts, on the other hand, celebrated erotic love in a setting of elaborate romance. Only the scholars of the new urban universities sought to integrate love into a coherent explanation of man and the universe. The writings of all these—Abelard and Bernard of Clairvaux, William of Poitiers and Andreas Capellanus—have in one way or another greatly enriched our Western traditions. Drawing upon a wealth of original sources and an abundant scholarly literature, John C. Moore has provided, in his own words, "a pleasant meeting-place' for twelfth-century men and women and for modern readers, who share a common humanity and a common interest in love.
