Abstract

At medieval universities, boundaries often served to reinforce divisions among competing groups and methods. Yet the crossing of these boundaries could also provide the basis for fruitful exchanges. The essays in this volume, contributed by specialists from Europe and North America in the study of medieval history, philosophy, theology, medicine and law, explore various ways in which boundaries between disciplines, faculties and between town and gown were both created and crossed at this new institutional form. Originally presented at the 2008 conference held in Madison, Wisconsin, they demonstrate in particular the richness and vitality of intellectual life at European universities both before and after the mid-thirteenth century. Contributors are David Luscombe, Marcia L. Colish, Chris Schabel, Maarten J.F.M. Hoenen, Kent Emery, Jr., John E. Murdoch, Michael R. McVaugh, Danielle Jacquart, Kenneth Pennington, Karl Shoemaker, Robert E. Lerner, and Jürgen Miethke.

Abstract

The origin and nature of the earliest universities are the subjects of this famous and witty set of lectures by the man whom eminent scholars have called "without exaggeration... the soul of the renascence of medieval studies in the United States." Great as the differences are between the earliest universities and those of today, the fact remains, says Professor Haskins, the "the university of the twentieth century is the lineal descendant of medieval Paris and Bologna." In demonstrating this fact, he brings to life the institutions, instruction, professors, and students of the Middle Ages.

Abstract

The volume presents a collection of articles on medieval history of universities, published over three decades. Covering the schools in northern France in the 12th century to the German universities of the 15th century the "studia" are considered as a system of learning and living. The high expectations of medieval society, the constitutional framework of learning, central institutions of the universities, individual careers and especially the grip of the church on the teaching of theologians receive attention. Academic freedom and orality of communication are both taken into account. In this way a colourful picture of the founding period of university history arises from this book.

Abstract

Les universités, institutions autonomes d'enseignement supérieur, sont une des créations les plus originales de la civilisation médiévale occidentale. On ne leur trouve guère d'équivalents ni dans l'Antiquité ni dans les mondes extra-européens. Les premières sont apparues au début du XIIIe siècle, leur nombre n'a cessé ensuite de croître. Elles ont joué un rôle capital dans l'élaboration de notre culture savante en même temps que dans la formation des élites qui ont façonné l'État moderne. Elles ont, sinon créé la figure de l'intellectuel, du moins permis la reconnaissance sociale des compétences intellectuelles et la promotion des gens de savoir. Leur contrôle est rapidement devenu un enjeu politique que se sont disputé l'Eglise et l'Etat. Cet ouvrage, dont la bibliographie a été réactualisée lors de la première édition en poche, est non pas une histoire de ce qui était enseigné alors dans les universités médiévales, mais une histoire du fonctionnement des institutions universitaires et des hommes qui les fréquentaient, une analyse des bases sociales et institutionnelles d'une activité intellectuelle contribuant à la connaissance des mentalités.

Abstract

This study of the social, geographical and disciplinary composition of the scholarly community at the University of Paris in the early fourteenth century is based on the reconstruction of a remarkable document: the financial record of tax levied on university members in the academic year 1329-1330. Containing the names, financial level and often addresses of the majority of the masters and most prominent students, it is the single richest source for the social history of a medieval university before the late fourteenth century. After a thorough examination of the financial account, the history of such collections, and the case (a rape by a student) that precipitated legal expenses and the need for a collection, the book explores residential patterns, the relationship of students, masters and tutors, social class and levels of wealth, interaction with the royal court and the geographical background of university scholars.
