Nesta obra estuda-se a igreja colegiada de Santa Justa de Coimbra, entre 1098 e 1451. Inicialmente define-se a inserção da paróquia de Santa Justa no tecido urbano, estudando-se, de seguida, a história institucional da igreja. A paróquia é analisada a partir da sua morfologia urbana e traça-se a sua sociotopografia. A constituição da comunidade eclesiástica é profundamente estudada e a sua caracterização realizada através de um exaustivo trabalho prosopográfico. A pastoral e o quotidiano litúrgico desta igreja paroquial são reconstituídos de forma minuciosa. A colegiada é também observada enquanto proprietária de um senhorio implantado na cidade e no mundo rural, detalhando-se a sua constituição e exploração. O estudo da sociedade medieval é realizado em todas as fases, destacando-se a definição das redes familiares e profissionais, das relações de solidariedade, sociabilidade e clientela estabelecidas nesta colegiada, nesta paróquia e no seu senhorio.

Der längste altfranzösische Text in hebräischer Graphie, genannt Fevres, ist ein theoretischer medizinischer Fachtext und besteht aus einer Kompilation von Werken salernitanischer Tradition, die in dem Traktat erstmals auf Französisch vorliegen. Der anonyme jüdische Autor lebte im Grenzgebiet Champagne – Lothringen – Burgund, und stellte die Fieberschrift vermutlich eingangs des 14. Jahrhunderts zusammen, indem er kanonische Texte v.a. aus dem Lateinischen in die Volkssprache übersetzte. Fevres ist in einem einzigen Manuskript, möglicherweise sogar als Autograph (Berlin SBPK Ms. or. oct. 512), überliefert. Die Autorin ermöglicht auch Romanisten, die das hebräische Alphabet nicht lesen, durch eine Teiledition in vier Schritten (Textedition – Transliteration – hypothetischer, altfranzösischer Lesetext – Übersetzung) einen Zugang zu diesem außergewöhnlichen Text. Der Edition wird eine ausführliche Einleitung vorangestellt, die u.a. die jüdisch-französische Texttradition darstellt sowie quellenkundliche und sprachlichen Merkmale von Fevres näher untersucht. Umfangreiche Glossare, die den medizinischen Fachwortschatz mit zahlreichen Erstbelegen erfassen, runden die Arbeit ab. Diese Arbeit wurde mit dem Kurt-Ringger-Preis und dem Elise-Richter-Preis des Deutschen Romanistenverbandes 2017 ausgezeichnet. Only a few works on medical theory are extant in 14th-century Old French. This book includes a partial edition and translation along with historical, dialectological, and source-analytic studies about an anonymous treatise on fever written after 1300 in Hebrew characters in eastern France. The medical vocabulary in Fevres is explained in glossaries that include many first-known references.

Of the 581 titles that make up the old bibliographical collection of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Coimbra, covering the 15th to 18th centuries, only five fall into the 15th century, thus constituting the so-called incunabula, the oldest cluster. From the 16th century names such as Amato Lusitano, Aristotle, Avicena, Guido de Chauliac, Dioscórides, Hippocrates, Galeno, Jacopo da Forli, Rasis, o "damasceno" Mesue and Pedro Julião or Pedro Hispano can be highlighted. These are the main manuals that contain, for the most part, commentaries to the Greek classics of medicine, particularly Galen, Hippocrates and Dioscorides, since the medieval study made from the commentary, usually graphically translated by the original text of the auctoritas occupying the center of the page, highlighted by the body of the type and surrounded by the commentary or glosa, was still very present in the 16th century. In matters as sensitive as medicine, the statements had to be based on any of the authors recognized as authorities. From the 17th century there are some works by Portuguese authors such as Duarte Madeira Arrais, Manuel de Azevedo, Rodrigo de Castro (according to some the founder of Portuguese obstetrics), Rodrigo da Fonseca, Tomás Rodrigues da Veiga and Abraão Zacuto, this one printed in Lyon and Amsterdam, as well as some of those mentioned above, which attests to the international recognition of the studies of these Portuguese authors. From the 18th century, along with pharmacopoeias, there are a significant number of works of surgery, some of which are of Portuguese authorship and numerous dictionaries on medical subjects, History of Medicine and, curiously, portable health dictionaries, in the line of treaties on the health of peoples. Portuguese authors such as Jacob de Castro Sarmento, João Curvo Semedo, Feliciano de Almeida and others, publish their works in Portugal and abroad. The production of works on Physiology, Medical Physics and Conservative and Preventive Medicine is intensified. The present work describes in detail each one of the copies of this fund, giving special emphasis to its provenance attested by the numerous handwritten notes, in its great majority religious congregations, of which the Bookstore of the Monastery of St. Augustine's Regranted Canons with 337 copies and some old university colleges that had, in fact, in number and quality varied, bibliographic nuclei that supported the religious and student populations that frequented them.

"Illness and Authority examines the lived experience and early stories about St. Francis of Assisi through the lens of disability studies. This new approach re-centres Francis's illnesses and infirmities and highlights how they became barriers to wielding traditional modes of masculine authority within both the Franciscan Order he founded and the church hierarchy. So concerned were members of the Franciscan leadership that the future saint was compelled to seek out medical treatment and spent the last two years of his life in the nearly constant care of doctors. Unlike other studies of Francis's ailments, Illness and Authority focuses on the impact of his illnesses on his autonomy and secular power, rather than his spiritual authority. From downplaying the comfort Francis received from music to disappearing doctors in the narratives of his life, early biographers worked to minimize the realities of his infirmities. When they could not do so, they turned the saint's experiences into teachable moments that demonstrated his saintly and steadfast devotion and his trust in God. Illness and Authority explores the struggles that early authors of Francis's vitae experienced as they tried to make sense of a saint whose life did not fit the traditional rhythms of a founder-saint."--
