Описание: Treason and magic were first linked together during the reign of Edward II. Theories of occult conspiracy then regularly led to major political scandals, such as the trial of Eleanor Cobham Duchess of Gloucester in 1441. While accusations of magical treason against high-ranking figures were indeed a staple of late medieval English power politics, they acquired new significance at the Reformation when the 'superstition' embodied by magic came to be associated with proscribed Catholic belief. Francis Young here offers the first concerted historical analysis of allegations of the use of magic either to harm or kill the monarch, or else manipulate the course of political events in England, between the fourteenth century and the dawn of the Enlightenment. His book addresses a subject usually either passed over or elided with witchcraft: a quite different historical phenomenon. He argues that while charges of treasonable magic certainly were used to destroy reputations or to ensure the convictions of undesirables, magic was also perceived as a genuine threat by English governments into the Civil War era and beyond.

Benard Reardon's famous book has been designed specifically to reassert the role of religion in the study of reformation history and make the theological issues and arguments that fuelled it accessible to non-specialists today.

Parish Название: A Short History of the Reformation ISBN: 1350151025 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350151024 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 15830.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: When, in October 1517, Martin Luther pinned his Ninety-Five Theses to the door of All Saints' Church in Wittenberg he shattered the foundations of western Christendom. The Reformation of doctrine and practice that followed Luther's seismic action, and protest against the sale of indulgences, fragmented the Church and overturned previously accepted certainties and priorities. But it did more, challenging the relationship between spiritual and secular authority, perceptions of the supernatural, the interpretation of the past, the role of women in society and church, and clerical attitudes towards marriage and sex. Drawing on the most recent historiography, Helen L Parish locates the Protestant Reformation in its many cultural, social and political contexts. She assesses the Reformers' impact on art and architecture; on notions of authority, scripture and tradition; and - reflecting on the extent to which the printing press helped spread Reformation ideas - on oral, print and written culture.
Автор: Joseph Davis Название: Heresies of a Renaissance Jew: The Ten Questions and Memoir of Eliezer Eilburg ISBN: 0822945053 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780822945055 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 32340.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: This volume includes two Hebrew texts from the Renaissance, published here for the first time, together with English translations. The first is a memoir of a German Jew, Eliezer Eilburg, a younger contemporary of Martin Luther (who mentions Luther, although not in a complimentary way). Eilburg tells stories of how his family was driven from Germany, how his involvement in lawsuits in Poland, his imprisonment, and his study and practice of medicine in Italy. The story is interspersed with kabbalistic visions, including a vision of the ghost of the author's mother. The memoir is a fascinating and authentic vista into the world of the Renaissance Jew. In the second text, The Ten Questions , Eilburg challenges nearly all of the Jewish beliefs of his time, and especially belief in the Bible. It is the most radical Jewish text of the sixteenth century, bar none. Eilburg's heretical doubts, a century before Spinoza, are a crucial link between the rationalism of medieval Jewish philosophy and the seventeenth and eighteenth century Enlightenment. The text sheds important new light on the Renaissance origins of modern Bible criticism.

Описание: A new generation of scholars is currently voicing its discontent with a scholarly tradition of interpreting and explaining epidemic outbreaks, their nature, and the social and political responses they generated. More specifically, assumptions about the actual identity of diseases that struck the Islamic Mediterranean in the early modern era have recently come under close scrutiny. The scholarly tradition of assuming that the Islamic world was fatalistic in responding to epidemic disease is also coming under strenuous attack. This collection of articles aims to tackle these misconceptions head-on. Contributors to this project will be closely scrutinizing the nature of epidemic diseases that struck the Islamic Mediterranean as well as the different forms of contagion, and the myriad ways in which Muslim societies responded to such diseases. This volume aims to fill a major lacuna in the existing literature. It will contribute to Ottoman studies and the history of medicine, and be relevant to wider, global studies of the role of epidemics in history, as well as early modern and modern state formation processes.
In The Captive Sea, Daniel Hershenzon explores the entangled histories of Muslim and Christian captives—and, by extension, of the Spanish Empire, Ottoman Algiers, and Morocco—in the seventeenth century to argue that piracy, captivity, and redemption helped shape the Mediterranean as an integrated region at the social, political, and economic levels. Despite their confessional differences, the lives of captives and captors alike were connected in a political economy of ransom and communication networks shaped by Spanish, Ottoman, and Moroccan rulers; ecclesiastic institutions; Jewish, Muslim, and Christian intermediaries; and the captives themselves, as well as their kin. Hershenzon offers both a comprehensive analysis of competing projects for maritime dominance and a granular investigation of how individual lives were tragically upended by these agendas. He takes a close look at the tightly connected and ultimately failed attempts to ransom an Algerian Muslim girl sold into slavery in Livorno in 1608; the son of a Spanish marquis enslaved by pirates in Algiers and brought to Istanbul, where he converted to Islam; three Spanish Trinitarian friars detained in Algiers on the brink of their departure for Spain in the company of Christians they had redeemed; and a high-ranking Ottoman official from Alexandria, captured in 1613 by the Sicilian squadron of Spain. Examining the circulation of bodies, currency, and information in the contested Mediterranean, Hershenzon concludes that the practice of ransoming captives, a procedure meant to separate Christians from Muslims, had the unintended consequence of tightly binding Iberia to the Maghrib.

The establishment of permanent embassies in fifteenth-century Italy has traditionally been regarded as the moment of transition between medieval and modern diplomacy. In The Refugee-Diplomat, Diego Pirillo offers an alternative history of early modern diplomacy, centered not on states and their official representatives but around the figure of "the refugee-diplomat" and, more specifically, Italian religious dissidents who forged ties with English and northern European Protestants in the hope of inspiring an Italian Reformation.
Pirillo reconsiders how diplomacy worked, not only within but also outside of formal state channels, through underground networks of individuals who were able to move across confessional and linguistic borders, often adapting their own identities to the changing political conditions they encountered. Through a trove of diplomatic and mercantile letters, inquisitorial records, literary texts, marginalia, and visual material, The Refugee-Diplomat recovers the agency of religious refugees in international affairs, revealing their profound impact on the emergence of early modern diplomatic culture and practice.
