"Reading Medieval Culture gathers an all-star collection of scholars who have written essays that are not only grounded in sound scholarship, but also are important contributions to medieval studies. This is the kind of collection one does not often encounter: capacious enough to challenge all of its readers to new insights about the Middle Ages and to present new ways of examining materials that in many cases had begun to seem too familiar." -Jeffrey Cohen, George Washington University This collection of original essays honors the influential work of Robert W. Hanning. Contributors cover a wide range of fields within medieval studies, from Anglo-Saxon England to twelfth-century European intellectual culture, and from Chaucer's age to nineteenth- and twentieth-century medievalism, including a rich section on Italian Renaissance humanism and visual art. Drawing from a variety of primary sources, the essays in this volume are united in their emphases on the complex ways in which these sources are situated in their own time, mediated historically through other texts and other readers, and read within the context of contemporary social questions and disciplinary structures. This collection will be appreciated by all scholars and students of medieval studies.

O primeiro número da revista Medievalista surgiu em 2005, graças ao esforço e empenho do Professor Luís Krus. É uma publicação online do IEM com uma abordagem interdisciplinar, que procura responder à inexistência de edições periódicas portuguesas sobre a Idade Média. A Medievalista pretende dar a conhecer os trabalhos mais recentes de novos investigadores, mas também os dos já consagrados, e contribuir para uma ampla difusão da cultura académica medieval. Serão igualmente divulgadas comunicações apresentadas no âmbito de encontros, colóquios e seminários promovidos pelo IEM, prevendo-se no futuro a edição de números temáticos. Com a publicação da revista, queremos abrir um espaço de debate de ideias com a comunidade, promover e divulgar novas abordagens ao estudo da Idade Média, estimulando vivamente a elaboração de trabalhos interdisciplinares.

Suspended Animation argues that not only is the stereotype of uncontrolled violence in the Middle Ages historically misleading, the gulf between modern society and the medieval era is not as immense as we might think.

This fifth of seven volumes on the Adages continues from where the Collected Works of Erasmus volume 34 left off and includes 900 more adages from III iv 1 to IV ii 100. The aim of the Adages volumes in the CWE is to provide a fully annotated, accurate, and readable English version of the more than 4000 adages gathered, and commented on by Erasmus, sometimes in a few lines and sometimes in full-scale essays.Following in the tradition of meticulous scholarship for which the Collected Works of Erasmus is widely known, the notes to this volume identify the classical sources and illustrate how Erasmus' reading and thinking developed over twenty-five years, a period spanned by eight revisions of the first edition of the work which appeared in 1508 and won immediate acclaim. Many of the proverbs cited by Erasmus are still in use today.

This study analyses the complex role played by the concept of a 'veiled truth' (integumentum) in the intellectual culture of the Twelfth Century. Eight chapters examine the concept in theological texts and milieux (e.g. Peter Abelard, Bernard of Clairvaux, Gilbert of Poitiers); in natural philosophy (William of Conches); in literary commentaries and literary theory; in literature (Bernard Silvester, Alan of Lille); and in methodological discussions of the Artes sermocinales and language (John of Salisbury). Key questions implied (and discussed) include: 12th-century reflections on the limits of human rationality; the impact of 12th-century methodological discussions for the evolution of Scholasticism; the nature and scope of medieval literary theory and hermeneutics; the importance of an interdisciplinary intellectual history for the understanding of medieval thought.
