By the end of the fifteenth century, Cassandra Fedele (1465-1558), a learned middle-class woman of Venice, was arguably the most famous woman writer and scholar in Europe. A cultural icon in her own time, she regularly corresponded with the king of France, lords of Milan and Naples, the Borgia pope Alexander VI, and even maintained a ten-year epistolary exchange with Queen Isabella and King Ferdinand of Spain that resulted in an invitation for her to join their court. Fedele's letters reveal the central, mediating role she occupied in a community of scholars otherwise inaccessible to women. Her unique admittance into this community is also highlighted by her presence as the first independent woman writer in Italy to speak publicly and, more importantly, the first to address philosophical, political, and moral issues in her own voice. Her three public orations and almost all of her letters, translated into English, are presented here for the first time.

Peter Abaelards Autobiographie, die Historia calamitatum, gehört zu den bekanntesten Texten des Mittelalters, insbesondere wegen der Liebesgeschichte zu Heloise, von der sie berichtet. In den letzten Jahrzehnten wurde über die Echtheit der Dokumente, die Abaelard und Heloise betreffen, so viel gestritten, daß die literaturwissenschaftliche Deutung des Werkes ganz in den Hintergrund trat. Aus dieser Sackgasse bietet das vorliegende Buch einen Ausweg. Es macht den berühmten Text zum Gegenstand einer Reihe exemplarischer Analysen aus der Perspektive von sieben verschiedenen Literaturtheorien des 20. Jahrhunderts (Rezeptionsästhetik, Foucault, Gender Studies, Rhetorische Stilanalyse, Literaturpsychologie, Kulturwissenschaft, Dekonstruktion). Diesen Analysen vorangestellt ist der lateinische Text der Historia calamitatum mit einer neuen, in modernem Deutsch gehaltenen Übersetzung. Damit wird die Historia calamitatum erstmals in einer zweisprachigen Ausgabe erschlossen. Peter Abelard's autobiography, the Historia calamitatum, is one of the best-known medieval texts, especially because of the story of his love for Heloise which it recounts. In recent decades, there was so much controversy about the authenticity of the documents concerning Abelard and Heloise that the critical interpretation of the texts was relegated to the sidelines. The present volume provides a way out of this impasse. In it, the famous text is subjected to a series of exemplary analyses from the perspectives of seven different 20th century literary theories (aesthetics of reception, Foucault, Gender Studies, Rhetorical Stylistic Analysis, Psychology of Literature, Cultural Studies, Deconstruction). The analyses are preceded by the Latin text of the Historia calamitatum with a modern German translation. This is thus the first time that the Historia calamitatum has been presented in a bilingual edition.

An engaging and accessible introduction to the writings and intellectual development of the Venerable Bede (d.735), this book (originally published in 1970) is available again for the enjoyment of all those interested in the early medieval world. With an updated preface and supplementary bibliography by Michael Lapidge, the book is based almost entirely on primary sources, particularly Bede's own writings. The book surveys the fragmented state of Britain after the Anglo-Saxon conquests, tracing the - sometimes faltering - rebirth of Christianity from the time of St. Augustine through to the glories of the golden age of Northumbria in the eighth century. What was Bede's contribution to the growth of scholarship? Why is his famous Ecclesiastical History of the English Church and People still so highly regarded? How did Bede see his own age? What traditions most influenced him? Peter Hunter Blair answers all these questions, assessing Bede sympatheticaly in all the fields in which he was active, as teacher, orthographer, moral philospher, grammarian, theologian, natural scientist and, above all, as our first modern historian.
