House of Lilies The Dynasty that Made Medieval France【電子書籍】[ Justine Firnhaber-Baker ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>'A mighty, panoramic history… Firnhaber-Baker does a real service for those with an interest in France and England alike by providing a dexterous and engrossing account, a treasury for anyone with an interest in the royal, political and religious worlds of the high medieval period'</strong> <em>Daily Telegraph</em></p> <p><strong>The sweeping story of one of the great epics of Europe's history: the rise and rise of the dynasty that dominated the Middle Ages</strong></p> <p>Starting in the tenth century from an insecure foothold around Paris, the Capetians built a nation that stretched from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean and from the Rh?ne to the Pyrenees. They founded practices and institutions that endured until the Revolution, transformed Paris from a muddy backwater to a splendid metropole, and popularized the fleur-de-lys, the lily, as the emblem of France. Time and again, their opponents woefully misjudged who they were up against, as through guile, ruthlessness, luck and marriage the Capetians disposed of them all.</p> <p>This is the story of the most powerful kingdom in Christendom. It is a tale of religious upheaval, heroism, adulterous affairs, holy wars, pogroms and persecution. From Hugh Capet to Eleanor of Aquitaine, the Capetians were men and women of vision and ambition, who considered themselves chosen by God to fulfil a great destiny. They did not simply rule France: they created it.</p> <p><em><strong>House of Lilies</strong></em> is a highly enjoyable account of this extraordinary sequence of events, set against one of the great eras in the history of western Europe. Justine Firnhaber-Baker brilliantly conveys not only the cultural effervescence of the French court, but also the intellectual achievements, the battles and the religious fervour, as well as the series of catastrophes that led to the dynasty's ultimate demise.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

King-Errant A Tale of Chivalry, Honor, and Love in a Medieval World【電子書籍】[ Flora Annie Webster Steel ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Flora Annie Webster Steel'??s "King-Errant" emerges as a profound exploration of identity and moral complexity set against the backdrop of colonial India. With its vividly drawn characters and richly woven narratives, the book reflects the tensions of a society grappling with the dualities of power and vulnerability. Steel employs a lyrical prose style, interspersed with dialogues that illuminate the intricacies of human relationships amid the socio-political upheaval of British rule. This literary work not only serves as a testament to Steel'??s awareness of her contemporary milieu but also embodies the larger narrative of Western perceptions of the East during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Flora Annie Webster Steel, a prominent figure in British literature, was deeply influenced by her experiences in India, where she lived for several years. These experiences not only shaped her worldview but also seeded themes present in "King-Errant," deftly addressing questions of belonging and allegiance. A pioneer in portraying the female experience in colonial contexts, Steel'??s insights into cultural encounters resonate throughout her writings, making her a formidable voice in early modern literature. "King-Errant" is a compelling read for those interested in colonial literature, gender studies, and the conversations surrounding identity. Readers will find in Steel'??s work a rich tapestry of thought-provoking ideas, challenging them to reflect on their own definitions of honor and duty. This book stands as a testament to a writer whose keen observations and lyrical craft continue to inspire.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Marquard von Lindau and the Challenges of Religious Life in Late Medieval Germany The Passion, the Eucharist, the Virgin Mary【電子書籍】[ Stephen Mossman ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This is a study of the intellectual history and religious culture of German-speaking Europe in the late Middle Ages. Its focus is the bilingual oeuvre of the Franciscan friar Marquard von Lindau (d. 1392), arguably the most widely-read author in the German language before the Reformation. His most successful works were those in which he considered pragmatic issues of Christian life, aimed at a broad reading public that stretched from monks and nuns living the contemplative life in enclosed convents; to his confreres, novices and students in the mendicant orders; and the literate citizens of the burgeoning mercantile centres. It is three of these pragmatic issues, central to late medieval religious life, around which this book is structured: the Passion of Christ, the sacrament of the Eucharist, and the devotion to the Virgin Mary. The dominant approaches taken towards each of these in the fourteenth-century church represented problematic challenges to Marquard; challenges which he met in a distinctive and influential manner, by no means in accordance with the affectively-charged devotional practices encouraged by many within and without his order, and so often considered normative for late medieval religious culture. The original voice with which Marquard spoke is made clear through the location of his oeuvre within the pan-European context of the debates in which his works participate. The ethos his works projected redetermined the trajectory of intellectual life in Germany into the fifteenth century and beyond.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Lives of Fair and Gallant Ladies (Vol. 1&2) The Most Influential Women in Medieval France【電子書籍】[ Pierre de Bourdeille Brant?me ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Pierre de Bourdeille Brant√\me'??s "Lives of Fair and Gallant Ladies" (Vol. 1&2) presents a riveting tapestry of Renaissance women's lives, embellished with rich anecdotes and penetrating insights. The work is marked by Brant√\me's distinctive baroque prose, blending biography with an almost voyeuristic lens, illuminating the complex interplay of gender, power, and reputation in French society. With a keen eye for detail, he contrasts the virtuous and the licentious, providing a multifaceted portrayal of women who stood at the confluence of societal expectation and personal desire, reflecting the values and contradictions of the 16th century. Brant√\me, himself a man of letters and a contemporary of the women he chronicles, draws on his aristocratic background and personal experiences in courtly life to fuel his explorations. His access to influential circles and intimate knowledge of the political machinations of his time informs his portrayal of these women, allowing him to capture the nuance of their experiences amidst the rigid structures of patriarchal norms. His reflections reveal both admiration and critical insight into the roles women played in shaping their destinies. This compelling anthology is highly recommended for readers interested in the historical intersections of gender and power. Brant√\me'??s engaging narratives invite them to reconsider their perceptions of women in history, encouraging a deeper understanding of the impact that these "fair and gallant ladies" had on their contemporaries and the legacy they left behind.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Scripting the Nation Court Poetry and the Authority of History in Late Medieval Scotland【電子書籍】[ Katherine H. Terrell ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em>Scripting the Nation</em> is the first book to set the poets of Scottish King James IV’s courtーWilliam Dunbar, Walter Kennedy, and Gavin Douglasーin an extended dialogue with Latin and vernacular traditions of historiography. In the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, Latin chroniclers such as John of Fordun and Walter Bower argued for their nation’s status, using genealogically based myths of origin that linked Scotland to ancient centers of power. As vernacular histories grew more Anglophobic and quarrels rooted in the past continued to influence Anglo-Scottish diplomacy, Dunbar, Kennedy, and Douglas took up a national discourse that responded to English myths and an English poetic tradition exemplified by Geoffrey Chaucer. Terrell’s elegant study examines how these Scottish writers marked out a distinct realm of Scottish cultural and poetic achievement, appropriating and subverting English literary models in ways that reveal the interplay between literary and historical authority in the scripting of nationhood.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Erotics of Grief Emotions and the Construction of Privilege in the Medieval Mediterranean【電子書籍】[ Megan Moore ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><em><strong>The Erotics of Grief</strong></em><strong>considers how emotions propagate power by exploring whose lives are grieved and what kinds of grief are valuable within and eroticized by medieval narratives.</strong> Megan Moore argues that grief is not only routinely eroticized in medieval literature but that it is a foundational emotion of medieval elite culture.</p> <p>Focusing on the concept of grief as desire, Moore builds on the history of the emotions and Georges Bataille's theory of the erotic as the conflict between desire and death, one that perversely builds a sense of community organized around a desire for death. The link between desire and death serves as an affirmation of living communities. Moore incorporates literary, visual, and codicological evidence in sources from across the Mediterraneanーfrom Old French <em>chansons de geste</em>, such as the <em>Song of Roland</em> and <em>La mort le roi Artu</em> and romances such as <em>Erec et Enide</em>, <em>Philomena</em>, and <em>Floire et Blancheflor</em>; to Byzantine and ancient Greek novels; to Middle English travel narratives such as Mandeville's Travels.</p> <p>In her reading of the performance of grief as one of community and remembrance, Moore assesses why some lives are imagined as mattering more than others and explores how a language of grief becomes a common language of status among the medieval Mediterranean elite.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Rise and Fall of a Medieval Family The Despensers【電子書籍】[ Kathryn Warner ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A historian’s fascinating account of two centuries in the lives of the powerful Despensers, famed for tragedy and scandal in medieval England.</strong></p> <p>The Despensers were a baronial English family who rose to great prominence in the reign of Edward II (1307-27) when Hugh Despenser the Younger became the king’s chamberlain, favorite, and perhaps, lover. He and his father Hugh the Elder wielded great influence, and Hugh the Younger’s greed and tyranny brought down a king for the first time in English history and almost destroyed his own family.</p> <p><em>The Rise and Fall of a Medieval Family</em> tells the story of the ups and downs of this fascinating family from the thirteenth to the fifteenth centuries, when three Despenser lords were beheaded and two fell in battle. We begin with Hugh, Chief Justiciar of England, who died rebelling against King Henry III and his son in 1265, and end with Thomas Despenser, summarily beheaded in 1400 after attempting to free a deposed Richard II, and Thomas’s posthumous daughter Isabella, a countess twice over and the grandmother of Richard III’s queen.</p> <p>From the medieval version of Prime Ministers to the (possible) lovers of monarchs, the aristocratic Despenser family wielded great power in medieval England. Drawing on the popular intrigue and infamy of the Despenser clan, Kathryn Warner’s book traces the lives of the most notorious, powerful, and influential members of this patrician family over a two-hundred-year span.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Book of the Duchess A Dream of Love and Loss: Exploring Emotions in Medieval Poetry【電子書籍】[ Geoffrey Chaucer ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "The Book of the Duchess," Geoffrey Chaucer employs a narrative framework interwoven with intricate allegorical elements to explore themes of love, loss, and grief. Written in the 14th century, this early work prefigures the complexity of Chaucer's later masterpieces. Depicting a grieving knight mourning the loss of his beloved, the poem features a dream vision that fuses courtly love with profound melancholy, all while showcasing Chaucer'??s characteristic vivid imagery and varied verse forms. This rich tapestry of emotions invites readers into a nuanced understanding of sorrow, whilst the use of first-person narrative offers an intimate glimpse into the psyche of its protagonist. Chaucer, often hailed as the Father of English literature, drew inspiration from his own experiences with love and loss, which undoubtedly influenced the creation of this poignant work. Living during a time of significant social change and literary evolution, Chaucer stood at the crossroads of medieval and early Renaissance thought. His keen observation of human emotion and relationships, along with his exposure to international literature, created a fertile ground for the development of his poetic voice. This remarkable poem is highly recommended for readers interested in the roots of English literature, as well as those engaged in the exploration of human emotions through poetry. "The Book of the Duchess" not only highlights Chaucer'??s imaginative prowess but also offers timeless reflections that resonate with any reader who has experienced the pangs of love and loss.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Prostitution in Medieval and Early Modern Literature The Dark Side of Sex and Love in the Premodern Era【電子書籍】[ Albrecht Classen ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Prostitution is known as the oldest profession in the history of humanity. While historians have already given due consideration to the profession’s social and cultural meanings across time periods, little has been written about literary representations of prostitution. Prostitution in Medieval and Early Modern Literature analyses the work of writers from an array of social positions, including courtly poets and even religious writers, dealing with the topic during the medieval and early modern periods. Its study shows that prostitutes and brothel owners were present on the literary stage far more often than we might have assumed. Utilizing an interdisciplinary approach and incorporating relevant sources from across the entire European continent dating from the early Middle Ages to the sixteenth century, it examines the phenomenon of prostitution in a variety of contexts and highlights the extent to which the institution mattered for both the higher and the lower classes.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Lost Heirs of the Medieval Crown The Kings and Queens Who Never Were【電子書籍】[ J. F. Andrews ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>“A fascinating study of the also-rans and almost-made-its of medieval history . . . Beautifully written and well researched, it is an engaging read.” ー<em>History . . . The Interesting Bits!</em></strong></p> <p>When William the Conqueror died in 1087, he left the throne of England to William Rufus . . . his second son. The result was an immediate war as Rufus’s elder brother Robert fought to gain the crown he saw as rightfully his; this conflict marked the start of 400 years of bloody disputes as the English monarchy’s line of hereditary succession was bent, twisted and finally broken when the last Plantagenet king, Richard III, fell at Bosworth in 1485.</p> <p>The Anglo-Norman and Plantagenet dynasties were renowned for their internecine strife, and in <em>Lost Heirs</em> we will unearth the hidden stories of fratricidal brothers, usurping cousins and murderous uncles; the many kingsーand the occasional queenーwho should have been but never were. History is written by the winners, but every game of thrones has its losers too, and their fascinating stories bring richness and depth to what is a colorful period of history. King John would not have gained the crown had he not murdered his young nephew, who was in line to become England’s first King Arthur; Henry V would never have been at Agincourt had his father not seized the throne by usurping and killing his cousin; and as the rival houses of York and Lancaster fought bloodily over the crown during the Wars of the Roses, life suddenly became very dangerous indeed for a young boy named Edmund.</p> <p>“A journey through the minefield of opposing factions fighting for the crown of England.” ーBooks Monthly</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

A Material History of Medieval and Early Modern Ciphers Cryptography and the History of Literacy【電子書籍】
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>The first cultural history of early modern cryptography, this collection brings together scholars in history, literature, music, the arts, mathematics, and computer science who study ciphering and deciphering from new materialist, media studies, cognitive studies, disability studies, and other theoretical perspectives. Essays analyze the material forms of ciphering as windows into the cultures of orality, manuscript, print, and publishing, revealing that early modern ciphering, and the complex history that preceded it in the medieval period, not only influenced political and military history but also played a central role in the emergence of the capitalist media state in the West, in religious reformation, and in the scientific revolution. Ciphered communication, whether in etched stone and bone, in musical <em>notae</em>, runic symbols, polyalphabetic substitution, algebraic equations, graphic typographies, or literary metaphors, took place in contested social spaces and offered a means of expression during times of political, economic, and personal upheaval. Ciphering shaped the early history of linguistics as a discipline, and it bridged theological and scientific rhetoric before and during the Reformation. Ciphering was an occult art, a mathematic language, and an aesthetic that influenced music, sculpture, painting, drama, poetry, and the early novel. This collection addresses gaps in cryptographic history, but more significantly, through cultural analyses of the rhetorical situations of ciphering and actual solved and unsolved medieval and early modern ciphers, it traces the influences of cryptographic writing and reading on literacy broadly defined as well as the cultures that generate, resist, and require that literacy. This volume offers a significant contribution to the history of the book, highlighting the broader cultural significance of textual materialities.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

An Analysis of Ernst H. Kantorwicz's The King's Two Bodies A Study in Medieval Political Theology【電子書籍】[ Simon Thomson ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Few historians trace grand themes across many centuries and places, but Ernst Kantorowicz's great work on the symbolic powers of kingship is a fine example of what can happen when they do. <em>The King's Two Bodies</em> is at once a superb example of the critical thinking skill of evaluation ? assessing huge quantities of evidence, both written and visual, and drawing sound comparative conclusions from it ? and of creative thinking; the work connects art history, literature, legal records and historical documents together in innovative and revealing ways across more than 800 years of history. Kantorowicz's key conclusions (that history is at root about ideas, that these ideas power institutions, and that both are commonly expressed and understood through symbols) have had a profound impact on several different disciplines, and even underpin many works of popular fiction ? not least The DaVinci Code. And they were all made possible by fresh evaluation of evidence that other historians had ignored, or could not see the significance of.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
