Because of the contradictory and repetitive nature of the Gospel narratives, the poet follows the organization of the biblical material observed in Peter Comestor’s Historia scholastica, whose completion in 1173 establishes the general terminus post quem for the composition of the poem. The style of the Versus can be called epigrammatic. In fact, the entire poem reads like a collection of short, independent tituli which could be removed from the present context and used as captions for appropriate figurative representations.

The context, sources, and particular characteristics of three Latin poems are discussed: the hagiographical epic De triumphis Christi of Flodoard of Reims (893/894-966); the De septem libris Iosephi of Geoffrey, Abbot of the Templum Domini (d. 1160); and the anonymous De excidio urbis Ierosolimorum, which was incorporated in the thirteenth century into three copies of Peter Riga's famous Bible in verse, the Aurora. Written in different times and even using different meters, these poetic Josephan accounts do not exhibit any intertextual connections; however, they all show great familiarity with their source and remarkable literary ambition.

The text was known to Nicole Oresme who engages with it twice: in his Questiones in Meteorologica de prima lectura and in Le livre du ciel et du monde. This Tractatus de iride, previously unknown to scholars, is transmitted in three late thirteenth-century manuscripts. It uses Robert Grosseteste’s theories of the rainbow as caused by the refraction of sunlight and of colour as light incorporated in aereal particles. However, contrary to Grosseteste, the Tractatus de iride adopts the idea of different degrees of incorporation of light, which is also found in the scientific writings by Adam of Exeter, a Franciscan scholar belonging to the same Oxonian circle as Grosseteste. Moreover, the Tractatus de iride develops original propositions in regard to the role of individual raindrops, the importance of the angle from which the rainbow is...

A scribal colophon asserts that the manuscript was written in 1203 but the
present state of the codex as well as the various late Gothic hands seen in it belies this date. In fact, this thoroughly remodeled copy of Peter Riga’s Aurora was probably produced in the late thirteenth-early fourteenth century. In addition to other previously unattested poetry, the codex contains an anonymous cursory versification of the Book of Revelation added at the end of Riga’s text. An edition and a short discussion of this unusual piece are also included in the article.

A worthy and welcome addition to the series, the twelfth volume also exhibits several important innovations. It is the first to be devoted to a single work by a single author, and given that the work is Ovid’s Metamorphoses, the field covered is vast, illustrating the manifold ways generations of students and readers understood and then drew fresh inspiration from the poem’s repertoire of story and character, all the more challenging in Christian Europe as Ovid’s mythic world is populated by pagan gods and the Roman poet celebrates no passion more than erotic love.

The enumeration of the commentaries and the explication of the range of interpretive and pedagogical approaches they display is the culmination of Frank Coulson’s life’s work on these texts, while the exhaustive accounting of the translations is the contribution of Harald Anderson. Credit is also given to Harry Levy, who worked on the printed commentaries on the Metamorphoses before his death. Encouraged by series editor Greti Dinkova-Bruun, the authors include generous citations from the prefatory material of the texts and, importantly, extend coverage deep into the seventeenth century, making the volume exceptionally valuable to all students of medieval and early modern European literature. The authors expand the value of their coverage by citing and providing links to online materials to the point that the text in some areas becomes virtual hypertext. The volume concludes with five very useful indices.

From Learning to Love. Schools, Law, and Pastoral Care in the Middle Ages. Essays in Honour of Joseph W. Goering (Toronto: PIMS, 2017)

With subjects ranging from scholastic debates about divine simplicity to disputes between parishioners over their reputations, these studies take us across Europe, from the eleventh to the fifteenth centuries, although the heart of the volume covers England and northern France in the decades around 1200. The collection reveals a culture with many threads of mutual influence connecting the learning of the schools, the administration of the Church, the perspectives of professionals in law and theology, and the stories, practices, and devotion of the laity. The first section of the volume considers medieval masters and examines both their subjects of intellectual inquiry and their peda-gogical methods, as reflected in the particular textual and manuscript practices developed in the schools. The second section considers how clerics applied learning acquired in the schools in their roles as pastors, judges, and administrators. The final section gathers essays on those aspects of religious culture manifested in popular piety, liturgy, and hagiography. Diverse in methods and scope, these essays nevertheless share a common aim: to honour the remarkable scholarly achievement of Joseph Ward Goer-ing. Although best known for his work on scholastic theology and pastoralia, his interests have ranged from hagiography to visual culture, and this volume reflects the interdisciplinary breadth and coherence of his work. This book presents original studies from many fields, including history, law, language and literature, theology, philosophy, and musicology, along with some editions of hitherto unpublished texts, as a tribute to Joe's role as a beloved mentor to medievalists from many disciplines.

Series: Sources for Byzantine Art History 3

In this book the beauty and meaning of Byzantine art and its aesthetics are for the first time made accessible through the original sources. More than 150 medieval texts are translated from nine medieval languages into English, with commentaries from over seventy leading scholars. These include theories of art, discussions of patronage and understandings of iconography, practical recipes for artistic supplies, expressions of devotion, and descriptions of cities. The volume reveals the cultural plurality and the interconnectivity of medieval Europe and the Mediterranean from the late eleventh to the early fourteenth centuries. The first part uncovers salient aspects of Byzantine artistic production and its aesthetic reception, while the second puts a spotlight on particular ways of expressing admiration and of interpreting of the visual.

Catalogus Translationum et Commentariorum (CTC), vol. 10

Each article treats a separate classical author, beginning with a detailed essay on the author’s reception from antiquity to AD 1600. This ‘Fortuna’ is followed by a comprehensive list both of manuscript and printed commentaries on each Latin author and, in the case of Greek authors, a list of Latin translations as well. Since its first volume published in 1960, the CTC has published articles on nearly a hundred classical authors, with dozens more in active preparation. The project boasts an international team of contributors from fourteen countries in Europe and North America. Given the ever-growing interest in departments of English, European languages and Comparative Literature in the history of classical reception, the basic scholarship provided by CTC has become more vital to humanistic research than ever. In this volume, the tenth in the series, five full-length articles devoted to Pindar, Aelianus Tacticus, Musaeus, Agathias, and Aulus Gellius are supplemented by addenda et corrigenda on articles previously published on Lucretius, Dionysius Periegetes, and Sallust.

The Dimensions of Colour: Robert Grosseteste’s ‘De colore’

by Greti Dinkova-Bruun and Hannah Smithson

The volume emanates from a series of interdisciplinary meetings, involving medieval specialists (from history, literary studies, history of philosophy, and palaeography) and modern scientists (from psychology and physics). This unique combination of insights allows new and deeper appreciation of Grosseteste's treatise and the significance of his methods and observations. Grosseteste builds a coherent mathematical model in his exploration of what colour is and how it is to be described. What he articulates is a three-dimensional model for the operation of colour, depending on three factors, the amount of light, its quality, and the quality of the medium in which light is incorporated. The importance of the De colore within Grosseteste's scientific canon can be better established as a result of these investigations, as well as the enduring sense of the richness of the encounter between medieval and modern science.

The Breuissima comprehensio historiarum, which exists in three medieval redactions, represents a brief versification of the historical books of the Bible, whereas the Liber Festiualis is written as a mnemonic device epitomizing the lives of seventy-four saints in the order of the ecclesiastical calendar. The critical edition of the these two compositions brings to light the complete poetical production of Alexander of Ashby. The work of this previously neglected poet is very important for our understanding of the cultural climate in the late twelfth - early thirteenth century England. The author was not only a literary figure, but also an important local dignitary, whose activities as a papal judge delegate are recorded in a number of charters from the period between 1181 and 1205.

Immanuel also suggests that the ideal vehicle to pursue philosophy is commentary on the Bible, which assumes the truth of scripture and can guide one toward true opinions, while still providing open-ended questions. Halper has framed the second part of the book with what he terms a Socratic paradox. Plato tells us in the Apology that Socrates is urged by both the divine Delphic oracle and his own divine sign [daimonion] to pursue philosophy and question divine things, including the gods. Questioning the divine is one of the factors that leads to his death. Yet he refuses to abandon the pursuit of philosophy since, as he tells us in the Apology (38a), "the unexamined life is not worth living for a human being." Jewish philosophers find themselves with the same paradox-impelled by the divine injunction to investigate the divine and its creation, which may lead to questioning the revelation given by that same divine authority. The book offers rich and varied perspectives on negotiating a paradox Halper proposes is at the heart of Jewish religious philosophy.

A more economical treatment of the material would have been desirable, for quite often Jaynes finds that his sources show little or no interest in Christian communities beyond Rome's reach. Even more dishearteningly, where such communities are noted, it is their schismatic and heretical practices that usually attract attention. Surveying the ecumene, medieval Latin authors were rarely ecumenical in their outlook. "Interest. .. in a broader Christian dialogue was inconceivable," Jaynes concludes (398). It may, finally, be noted that approaching such a topic (indeed, any topic) primarily through maps generates certain problems. Medieval and early modern maps were not-as moderns sometimes assume-repositories of the most up-to-date information about the world. As Jaynes clearly realizes, they were not the product of firsthand surveying; instead, they maintained an important historiographical function, and their sources were principally and overwhelmingly textual. As a result, unless maps are viewed in relation to verbal descriptions of space, they represent an incomplete source for any particular aspect of medieval knowledge. The strongest sections of Jaynes's book occur when he compares the generally much more extensive information on non-Western Christians that he finds in written sources with the material contained in maps.

The reform's focus on Rome and its canon law, he argued, made this northern, episcopal compilation irrelevant. The surviving manuscripts, both intact and fragmentary, demonstrate, instead, a far longer influence, one well into the twelfth century. Glosses also indicate that the work was read and used. Such enduring reception argues for the continuity of legal and theological thought in the period rather than sudden "reforms" and "revolutions" generated by Rome and Bologna.
