One small bump along top edge of board else Fine. ; 9 x 0.75 x 6.25 Inches; 227 pages; This book features the efforts of a group of academics from diverse disciplines that have been working together to highlight the presence of the parrot in selected texts across the centuries. Their common purpose is to demonstrate that fictional parrots invariably function as more than decoration comedy or badges denoting the eccentricity of their human owners. These versatile and talented birds function as markers for subtle literary techniques. Using the parrot as an interpretative tool the focus is on a range of narrative strategies and metaphorical meanings employed by the authors in question and argue that these are embodied in the attributes of the speaking bird who figures significantly in each work.

Slightly cocked. ; Henry Bradshaw Society Subsidia; 1.12 x 8.8 x 5.66 Inches; 320 pages; Amalarius of Metz c775-c850 was the most inventive and influential of early medieval commentators on the liturgy. His Liber officialis and other works popularized the use of allegory to discover deeper spiritual meanings in the rituals of the church. About the sources of Amalarius's thought however and the early shaping of his methods many questions persist. New light is shed on these problems by recently discovered remnants of a hitherto unknown text. The fragments apparently all that survive of a longer work treating the Divine Office and the last three days of Holy Week show many hallmarks of Amalarius's early writing. The present book presents an edition of the Latin texts accompanied by a full English translation and apparatus of sources. A detailed introduction discusses the contents of the fragments the evidence of their authorship and their contribution to present knowledge of Amalarius's career and early medieval liturgical history. .

Light bump to top of front board. ; Studies and Texts Pontifical Institute of Mediaeval Studies 24; 125 pages; With the Liber de novitatibus huius temporis epistola ad Adrianum Papam Master Gerhoch 1093�1169 provost of Reichersberg in Bavaria attempted in 1155�1156 to inform Pope Hadrian IV 1154�1159 of the doctrinal novelties of his time � the notorious abuses of both secular and ecclesiastical authorities and the scandalous laxity among clergy and religious � and to point out the remedies legislated by councils convoked by Innocent II1130�1143 and Eugene III 1145�1153. The principal doctrinal innovators denounced by Gerhoch were Peter Abelard d. 1141 and Gilbert bishop of Poitiers d. 1154. As early as 1126 Gerhoch debated with disciples of Abelard at the Roman curia; and beginning in the fifties Master Peter of Vienna a disciple of Bishop Gilbert antagonized Gerhoch a great deal. Gerhoch also tells Hadrian that clerical authorities not only keep armies but also abuse them by waging disorderly wars. Secular powers on the other hand recklessly usurp the goods of the Church for their own ends and fail to pay tithes imposed by Gregory I. In both France and Germany the pope is told the low moral conduct of the clergy calls for more stringent reform. Gerhoch advises the pope also to restrain loud-mouthed jurists in both secular and ecclesiastical courts since they often make their cases so convoluted that it becomes impossible to solve them. This edition of the Latin text is supplemented with a detailed introduction to the issues discussed an extensive bibliography concerning Gerhoch as well as indexes and a glossary .

One of the last textual references to Cosa comes from the work of Rutilius Claudius Namatianus in his De reditu suo. In the passage 1.285-90 Rutilius remarks that by 416 the site of Cosa was deserted and could be seen to be in ruins. In the 20th century Cosa was the site of excavations carried out under the auspices of the American Academy in Rome initially under the direction of the archaeologist Frank Edward Brown. Excavations 1948-54 1965-72 have traced the city plan the principal buildings the port and have uncovered the Arx the forum and a number of houses. Unexcavated buildings include a bathing establishment but no trace of a theater or an amphitheater has been found. In the 1990s a limited series of excavations were carried out under the direction of Elizabeth Fentress then associated with the American Academy in Rome. This latter campaign aimed at understanding the history of the site between the imperial period and the middle agest. Sample excavations took place over the whole site with larger excavations on the Arx the Eastern Height and around the Forum. . Pennsylvania State University Press hardcover
