    Carol Chiodo deposited Hitting the Mark. Projectile Motion and the ‘segno lieto’ in Dante’s Commedia in the group Group logo of CLCS MedievalCLCS Medieval on MLA Commons 11 months, 2 weeks ago

    This essay explores Dante Alighieri’s notion of projectile motion in relation to spiritual fulfillment in the first canto of Paradiso. The notion of impetus, or projectile motion, stood at the confluence of Greek philosophical rationality (mediated by a substantial Arabic corpus) and Christian thought, and it provides a unique window through…[Read more]

    This chapter examines the plight of Fra’ Alberigo in light of philosophical questions of personal identity and embodiment. I argue that Fra’ Alberigo’s individuality and his punishment in Tolomea provides insight into Dante’s unique interpretation of the complex relationship between body and spirit and the issue of material continuity in the…[Read more]

    The object of this research is divided among phenomena observed in al-Andalús, in North Africa, with the peculiarity that data from America and its languages can help to clarify certain points and, finally, in Palestine. There is therefore a historical journey and a synchronous investigation. This has given rise to reflections that relate…[Read more]

    Juan Carlos buscó decididamente un modelo común mediterráneo que permitiera explicar que muchas de las características de los llamados tradicionalmente “arte visigodo” o “arte mozárabe” eran independientes de la instauración de la dinastía Omeya en al-Andalús y, de manera mucho más profunda, cómo esa importancia e influencia que se concede al art…[Read more]

    Alex Mueller deposited Digitizing Chaucerian Debate in the group Group logo of CLCS MedievalCLCS Medieval on MLA Commons 1 year, 1 month ago

    To encourage classroom dialectic I often turn to the “quitting” structure of “The Canterbury Tales,” within which pilgrims offer requitals of previous tales that range from exuberant acclamations to
    raucous attacks. Within these extremes lie productive forms of correction that emerge as subtle critiques, opposing arguments, and timely (or…[Read more]

    Using the evidence of the aural as intrinsic to mester de clerecía’s mode of diffusion and reception as point of departure, this chapter examines sound as a wider and complex system of references, actualizations, and allusions that articulate and structure the mode in its composition, as part of its tools to effect meaning. Music and song play ob…[Read more]

    From its linguistic origins as a Biblical land of great wealth across the sea, to its more recent nostalgic imaginary as a lost Golden Age of Mediterranean Jewish culture, Sefarad has been as much an idea as a physical place, a lens through which Iberian Jews have interpreted their world, first in al-Andalus, then in Christian Iberia, and later in…[Read more]
