‎The paintings that Rubens devoted to the theme of the youth of Christ are among the most impressive and influential examples of art that expressed Roman Catholic spirituality as reasserted at the Council of Trent. The vast majority of these works are his numerous images of the Adoration of the Shepherds and the Adoration of the Magi. The oldest sources for these and other scenes from Christ's youth are of course the accounts of the Gospels, but these were usefully completed by several supplementary descriptions, more especially the Apocrypha, patristic literature, and the pious legends woven around the birth of Christ in the course of the Middle Ages. In his interpretations of the scenes from Christ's youth, Rubens built to a large extent on a pictorial tradition that had developed in the Low Countries and Italy in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, in which mediaeval views and patterns originating from Northern Europe had merged with those of the Italian Renaissance. In Rubens's representations of scenes from Christ's youth, and especially in his many interpretations of the themes of the Adoration of the Shepherds and the Adoration of the Magi, the ideas of Counter-Reformation iconography found their most explicit embodiment in the clear Eucharistic connotations that are present in these works Corpus Rubenianum Ludwig Burchard‎

‎Orthodox Christianity and Modern Science: Tensions, Ambiguities, Potential‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, 277 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9782503576169.‎

‎Summary The first volume of the new series "Science and the Orthodox Christianity" focuses on the nature of the relationship between modern science and Orthodox Christianity with its centuries-old tradition. Orthodoxy today shares a variety of - sometimes ambiguous - attitudes towards modern science shaped by the texts of the Church Fathers, medieval and modern theologians and scholars, as well as contemporary social realities. On the other hand, modern science, which sprung from the quest by West European scholars for a better knowledge of the world, is faced with crucial and uneasy questions about the meaning of life and the position of humankind within the natural world. The main goal of this volume is to define the patterns of the science-religion relationship in the Orthodox world, especially in the light of the most recent trends in both science and theology. Is this a relationship of dialogue or conflict? Of integration or independence? What is the impact of the revival of patristic studies and new theological currents on the relationship? But also, what is the relevant impact of new scientific discoveries on the image of the human and the universe? Has the modern science-religion dialogue in the West influenced Orthodox Christianity in its effort to create new perspectives and concepts in response to new challenges? These questions are crucial for understanding and mapping the current science-religion dialogue in the Orthodox world, and apart from recording given views and opinions.

‎Summary Lyon, capitale des Burgondes (Ve-VIe si cles), avait t marginalis e au temps des royaumes m rovingiens de l'Entre-Seine-et-Rhin, et ses lites d cim es par les pouvoirs francs (VIIe-VIIIIe si cles). La cr ation d'un empire par P pin le Bref puis Charlemagne a chang la donne. Dans une construction politique qui veut unir la Germanie l'Italie, la Saxe la Catalogne, Lyon retrouve une place centrale : porte de l'Espagne chr tienne, voie d'acc s privil gi e l'Italie lombarde dont Charlemagne a fait son premier objectif militaire, la ville devient la t te de pont de la pr sence franque dans le sud de l'Europe. Le pouvoir carolingien cependant ne s'impose pas Lyon seulement par la force, mais en y relevant le gouvernement piscopal. Des v ques choisis par les empereurs pour leurs comp tences intellectuelles sont plac s la t te de la cit . Leidrade et Agobard, Amalaire puis Amolon assurent le rayonnement durable de Lyon par l'excellence des coles qu'ils fondent et qui attirent des clercs de l'Europe enti re, ainsi que par la profusion des manuscrits qu'ils r unissent dans la biblioth que cath drale. L'intense activit culturelle lyonnaise du IXe si cle n'est pas corset e par le soutien politique initial des Carolingiens. Au contraire, les clercs proposent des politiques alternatives au gouvernement des princes francs ; ils appellent la cr ation d'une Europe uni? e par le respect d'une loi unique et la renaissance d'un empire chr tien universel? Des propositions qui tiennent de l'id alisme et du fondamentalisme biblique, et qui ne seront jamais suivies d'effet.

‎Literary Echoes of the Fourth Lateran Council in England and France, 1215-1405‎

‎, Brepols, 2019 Hardback, x + 322 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9780888448316.‎

‎Summary The thirteenth century saw a blossoming of religious literature aimed at the laity composed in the vernacular as well as in Latin for the preachers who ministered to them. It has been traditional in literary history to attribute this vernacular creativity to the Fourth Lateran Council. Although the Council was part of a longer tradition of Church reform, it nonetheless crystallized theological and ecclesiastical thought in a form that was a spur to composition by writers and preachers for more than a century. The aim of this volume is not to attempt a comprehensive account of the Council or its reach in religious writing of the period but to further our understanding of how lay people, largely neglected by earlier councils, received Lateran IV's doctrinal definitions and disciplinary rules. The essays gathered here concentrate on England, where bishops enacted the Council's reforms with particular enthusiasm, and France, where the earliest instructional literature appeared. While the volume takes into account individual works that may have responded more directly to the decrees of the local bishops who enacted the canons proclaimed in 1215, it focuses on others in which the imperatives of the Fourth Lateran Council reverberate as literary echoes, revealing remarkable and often surprising connections with the larger historical and religious context. The texts discussed span the many languages of England and France of the period: Latin, Anglo-Norman, Middle English, Old French, and Occitan. The interpretation of literature that undergirds the entire collection is suitably broad, ranging from chanson de geste and Chaucer's Canterbury Tales to didactic works, and encompassing along the way both biblical translations and sermons whose use of literary techniques to engage their audiences makes them 'literary', even if not always fictional.

Ceci soul ve plusieurs questions, au centre des changes entre m di vistes de toutes disciplines: histoire, philosophie, th ologie, lettres latines et romanes, histoire du droit, histoire de l'art etc. Pourquoi observe-t-on soudain une vogue litt raire de l'amour au xiie si cle, chez les po tes d'oc et d'o l, les ex g tes du Cantique des cantiques, les th ologiens de la Trinit ou de la charit , les ma tres de la vie int rieure, les commentateurs du pseudo-Denys, les philosophes de l'amor honestus ou de l'amiti , les canonistes d finissant le mariage, les th oriciens de l'amour du prince et de ses sujets, les amants eux-m mes dont on commence conserver les correspondances enflamm es? Ensuite, comment crivains et docteurs, tout en distinguant soigneusement les diverses sortes d'amour, les int grent-ils dans une m me conception unitaire? Enfin, pourquoi, dans les trois derniers si cles du Moyen ge, se met-on opposer de plus en plus la connaissance et l'amour comme deux facult s de l' me sym triques et antith tiques, et quels sont les enjeux jusqu' aujourd'hui de cette joute entre l'amour et la connaissance ?

‎Das Speculum universale des Radulfus Ardens (gest. um 1200) ist die umfangreichste systematische Gesamtdarstellung der theologischen Ethik im 12. Jahrhundert. W hrend in den fr hscholastischen Sentenzensummen die Tugenden vor allem als Resultat der Gnade Gottes verstanden werden, thematisiert sie Radulfus Ardens auf der Linie der von Gilbert von Poitiers beeinflussten Autoren ausf hrlich auch von der Seite des Menschen und seiner Eigenwirklichkeit her. So zeichnet Radulfus in den B chern 1-5 (CC CM, 241), die eine allgemeine Tugendlehre beinhalten, den Prozess nach, in dem sich Tugenden und Laster im Menschen entwickeln. Die B cher 7-14 entfalten dann im Sinne einer speziellen Tugendlehre eine h chst differenzierte und originelle Untergliederung der sittlichen Grundhaltungen. Dabei geht es in Buch 7-10 (CC CM ,241A) um die diskretiven Tugenden, w hrend die B cher 11-15 im jetzt vorliegenden 3. Band der Edition (CC CM, 241B) die affektiven Tugenden entlang der drei Grundaffekte des Menschen (also amative, oditive und kontemptive Tugenden) sowie die Tugenden des u eren Menschen (rechter Gebrauch des Sprechens und der Sinne) entfalten.

‎Summary Abscondi eloquium tuum in corde meo, Thy word have I hid in mine heart (Ps 119, 11). Under this title, colleagues, disciples and friends of Gilbert Dahan have decided, on the initiative and under the direction of Annie Noblesse, to address him a collection of M langes in homage to his scientific work and the profound renewal he has brought to various fields of research: the phenomenology of medieval liturgical games, relations between Jewish intellectuals and Christians in the Middle Ages, and medieval Christian exegesis. Based on his interest in medieval exegesis, its history and reception, they offer twenty-one contributions, classified under five headings: elucidating, glossing and commenting, interpreting, conferring and preaching. A study of the musical setting of Ps 101 by Pierre C sar Abeille (1674-1733), whose works appeared in a manuscript of the Biblioth que nationale de France, also pays tribute to the musician and music lover to whom this book is dedicated. The volume also includes a list of Gilbert Dahan's works and publications. Abscondi eloquium tuum in corde meo, J'ai ton parler reserr en mon cueur (Ps 119, 11).

‎, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 348 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language(s):English, French. ISBN 9782503601717.‎

‎Summary On 20 October 1870 pope Pius IX adjourned the First Vatican Council, because of the Italian Rissorgimento troops approaching the city of Rome. Given that the Council had only opened less than a year prior, on 8 December 1869, the act was emblematic. The council, as the Catholic Church's protective response against all things new - rationalism, liberalism, naturalism, materialism, and pantheism - was overtaken by history. Given its premature end not all documents prepared were completed and those that were promulgated, became among the most controversial documents in the nineteenth and twentieth-century Catholic Church, strongly defining its relations to other Christian confessions and modernity. Similarly, around one hundred years after the suspension of the First Vatican Council its historical and theological study was overtaken by the event of the Second Vatican Council, known for its rapprochement to the modern world. The history and results of the First Vatican Council were either forgotten or reinterpreted in light of this subsequent council's decisions. In light of the 150th anniversary of this council, the editors and authors of this volume set themselves the goal of re-examining this tradition of historical and theological reception (and forgetting) of the First Vatican Council.

‎, Brepols, 2023 Paperback, 492 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language(s):English, Latin, Hebrew. ISBN 9782503605050.‎

‎Summary Andrew of Saint Victor was one of the most prominent biblical scholars of the twelfth century. He was a regular canon of the Parisian abbey of St Victor, founded in 1108, which in the twelfth century had developed into a prestigious center of spiritual learning, closely connected to the nascent university in Paris. Because of his frequent use of Jewish exegetical materials, Andrew's commentaries are a rich source for the history both of biblical hermeneutics and of inter-religious dialogue during the Middle Ages. His Isaiah commentary caused outrage among medieval Christian scholars because it eschewed traditional christological interpretations, and instead offered a reading "according to the Hebrew." This translation makes this work accessible in English for the first time. The source text of this volume was published in 2021 by Frans van Liere (Corpus Christianorum, Continuatio Mediaeualis, 53C).

‎Inventio meditativa. The Rhetoric and Hermeneutics of Meditation in Hugh of Saint-Victor, Guigo II, and Bonaventure of Bagnoregio‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Paperback, 269 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9782503612676.‎

‎Summary The present volume develops a new conceptual perspective on late-medieval meditation, particularly in Hugh of Saint-Victor, Guigo II, and Bonaventure of Bagnoregio. For the most part, modern commentaries on the subject have relegated rhetoric to the margins of attention, if not to complete silence. In contrast, this book contends that these writers arrived at their distinctive conceptions of meditation by drawing from the Ciceronian rhetorical tradition. They did so by deepening earlier rhetorical treatments of inventio while adapting them to the Christian life. The examination of this topic is divided into three principal and related aspects. First, meditation is studied as a rhetorical notion for a specific kind of mnemonic, rational, and affective exercise. Second, that notion is used to shed light on meditation as a compositional textual practice whose outcomes bear striking analogy to what Umberto Eco called the 'open works' of the Western avant-garde. Finally, meditation emerges as a form of literary reception required for approaching and construing certain works. In exploring each of these aspects, the study shows that rhetoric radically informs, not only Hugh's, Guigo's, and Bonaventure's engagement with meditation, but also their views on salvation history, monastic life, divine revelation, scientific learning, and biblical hermeneutics. Thus, despite the omission or relative insignificance of the ars bene dicendi in most modern investigations, it is argued that rhetoric lies at the core of these authors' entire religious outlook. In this way, the present volume aims to contribute to a better understanding of these medieval figures by filling an important gap in the scholarly literature.

‎Summary La th ologie est n e comme science m taphysique. D s Aristote, la science la plus haute se pr sente comme une discipline philosophique qu'il appelle pist m th ologik , science th ologique . Ce que nous appelons aujourd'hui m taphysique , c'est ce que les traductions latines d'Aristote appellent scientia divina, science divine . Or cette science divine aristot licienne ne porte pas sur les dieux de la religion. Aristote emploie d'ailleurs un terme tout fait diff rent pour d signer le discours mythique et religieux sur les dieux : il parle alors de theologia ; la theologia est une autre sorte de discours, celui des mythologies sur les dieux, tandis que la science divine du philosophe porte sur une substance premi re, s par e du monde sensible et principe de son mouvement, soit le premier moteur. Ce principe n'op re aucun salut. Il ne faut donc pas confondre le discours scientifique (la science th ologique ou science divine , sur le premier moteur) et le discours religieux. La difficult est alors de comprendre quand, comment et pourquoi cette discipline philosophique supr me, la science th ologique, s'est orient e vers les religions v cues par les hommes.

‎Principia on the Sentences of Peter Lombard. Exploring an Uncharted Scholastic Philosophical Genre Across Europe‎

‎, Brepols, 2024 Hardback, 1204 pages, Illustrations:1 b/w, 25 tables b/w., Language(s):English, French, Latin. ISBN 9782503612089.‎

‎Summary Principia were an obligatory step on the medieval university path to becoming a master of theology. As inaugural lectures on the four books of the Sentences of Peter Lombard, they provided the first opportunity for a scholastic to defend a philosophical-theological worldview. These lectures were also a way for the theologian, now a sententiarius, to present himself and to make a name for himself, initially by delivering in a speech an introduction to the course and by debating with his fellows. The present book takes a collective approach to offer a survey of the evolution of the genre, mapping the dissemination of this exercise during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries across Europe. As an academic exercise, principia bridge ideas, texts, authors, and institutions across time. Exploring the corpus of surviving principia illuminates the philosophical creativity cultivated in the faculties of theology. The papers in these volumes thus not only discuss the structural aspects of principia, but also treat the philosophical and theological ideas defended and attacked during the principial debates and the topics and imagery used in the speeches. The various chapters delve into the surviving material in a common attempt, firstly, to assemble pieces of evidence from Paris and Oxford into an image portraying how, when, and by whom the principia were performed in the first European universities. The second part illustrates the spread of the genre to the new faculties of theology in Central Europe and Italy, with case studies from Bologna, Cracow, Florence, Heidelberg, Prague, and Vienna, highlighting the pan-European diffusion of the practice.

‎Summary The Fourth Lateran Council of 1215 was a foundational event in the history of Western Christendom. Lead by the reformist Pope Innocent III, the Council ushered in a new era of papal policy in governance, the implications of which would be felt throughout the continent. To some, Lateran IV represents the flourishing of the medieval papacy, as the institution sought to improve pastoral care across Europe, as well as to define theological orthodoxy. For others, Lateran IV constitutes the founding moment of the so-called 'persecuting society', the moment at which the Papacy articulated its identity via the category of heresy. Lateran IV: Theology and Care of Souls assesses the pastoral and theological legacies of the Council. The volume brings together scholars of high theology, as well as those whose work engages with the practices of clerical governance in the thirteenth century. Lateran IV: Theology and Care of Souls maps the key intellectual, theological, and pastoral concerns of Lateran IV, especially revealing the influence of the medieval theologians connected to the universities on the decrees of the Council.

‎, Brepols, 2022 Paperback, 412 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:2 b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503600437.‎

‎Summary Thomas Gallus (d. 1246) was the Abbot of Vercelli in the north of Italy. Initially a canon regular in the abbey of St Victor in Paris, he helped found a new monastery and church in the home town of his patron, Cardinal Guala Bicchieri. As well as commenting on the Canticle of Canticles three times, Thomas was renowned for his expositions of the works of Dionysius the Areopagite, commentaries which earned him the title magister in hierarchia (master of the hierarchies). This volume contains the first translation in any language of his Glosses on the Angelic (or Celestial) Hierarchy (completed in 1224), as well as his more detailed Explanation of the Angelic Hierarchy (finished in 1243). The commentaries are fascinating for their insights into Thomas's teaching that love has a higher access to an experience of God than the intellect, the role of the angelic hierarchies in the mystical return of the soul, the psychological interpretation of the angels as representing faculties of the soul, and the use of symbols representing analogical features of the divine. The source text of this volume appeared in Corpus Christianorum, Continuatio Mediaeualis as Thomas Gallus, Super angelica ierarchia (CCCM, 223) and Glose super angelica ierarchia (CC CM, 223A). References to the corresponding pages of the Corpus Christianorum edition are provided in the margins of this translation.

‎, Brepols, 2022 Paperback, 209 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Language: English. ISBN 9782503601182.‎

‎Summary Just as apparently universal ideas of inwardness are different over time, so the idea of the self in relation to others is subject to historical change and dependent on different contexts. Against a shared background of late antique and early medieval Christianity the thinkers who are the subject of this book develop their thoughts of a relational self within their wider concerns. Augustine is the thinker of interiority, but also of the social life. For Augustine, the opacity of others, even of oneself, and how to overcome it, is a main concern. Cassian writes about the ideal of solitude, yet neither the abbas who are the subject of his Conversations, nor his readers can avoid the company of others. For Cassian, human fellowship is instrumental in reaching the desired virtues of detachment, which then enables love for others. Gregory the Great searches for the right balance of the contemplative and the active life, but even the contemplative is not a separate individual. Gregory's instruction of the leaders of the Church emphasises the need to widen in compassion, against the constant danger for the preachers of hypocrisy and the swollenness of pride and arrogance. These three authors were among the most influential sources in later ages. Their echoes resonated in the twelfth century, when a renewed interest in interiority raises the question how the twelfth-century 'inner man' relates to others. Hugh of Saint-Victor, Abelard, and Heloise, are among the writers in whose thoughts we see patristic thought reflected and changed in various ways. TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction Chapter One.

‎, Brepols, 2022 Hardback, 625 pages, Size:152 x 229 mm, Illustrations:1 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503553115.‎

‎Summary Biblical interpretation, writings on the contemplative/mystical life and a continuing deep reflection on the nature and meaning of symbols come together in powerful ways in Victorine writers, particularly Hugh and Richard, as well as the lesser-known writer Thomas Gallus (Thomas of Vercelli), a Victorine canon who became the abbot of a house of regular canons in Vercelli, Italy. This volume contains: (1) Hugh's On the Ark of Noah and A Short Treatise on the Form of the Ark, treatises that unfold Hugh's teaching on stages and fruition of the mystical quest in relation to a complex drawing that incorporates a figure of Christ seated in majesty, embracing a map of the world on which is superimposed a diagram of Noah's Ark, representing the 12 stages of the contemplative quest; (2) Richard's On the Ark of Moses, a work that uses the symbolic (allegorical and tropological) interpretation of the Ark of the Covenant and the figures of the Cherubim that accompany the Ark in the Jerusalem Temple to convey Richard's vivid and compelling teaching on the varieties of contemplative experience as he understood them in twelfth-century Paris; and (3) Thomas Gallus' Commentary on the Song of Songs, which offers a window into a formative period of transition in the western Christian spiritual tradition, with Gallus's commentary on the Song of Songs giving voice to a more ?affective? (versus ?speculative?) understanding of the mystical quest and experience, drawing upon and extending earlier Victorine explorations of the interrelationship of love and knowing in the experience of contemplation. For those interested in the dynamics of the spiritual quest and symbolic understanding in the twelfth and early thirteenth centuries, as well as insights that can inform the modern quest for knowledge and love of God, these are essential works for any library.‎

‎Summary Orthodox Christian theology is based on a living tradition that is deeply rooted in Greek Patristic thought. However, few systematic proposals about how this theology can respond to questions that arise from modern science have yet appeared. This volume, consisting of eleven essays by different authors about how this response should be formulated, therefore represents a significant contribution to Orthodox thinking as well as to the broader science-theology dialogue among Christians. The variety of approaches in the essays indicates that there does not yet exist among Orthodox a consensus about the methodology that is appropriate to this dialogue or about how the questions that arise from specific scientific insights should be answered. Nevertheless, they indicate the ways in which Orthodox approaches to science differ significantly from most of those to be found among Western Christian scholars, and in this way they point to an underlying unity of perspective that is rooted in the Orthodox tradition.
