A common thread runs through the essays gathered here, namely the presence of men of science at the papal court during the 13th century, from Witelo, the greatest optics scholar of that century, to Campano da Novara, the author of the Theorica planetarum, to the Dominican Guglielmoda Moerbeke, the celebrated translator of Aristotle's corpus of works. Countless pieces of medical-scientific information place the papal court in competition with other thirteenth-century sovereign courts, first and foremost those of Frederick II and Alphonse X. They suggest that the papacy and the curial elites also viewed the study of nature as a symbolic instrument of world domination, in keeping with the lofty reflections offered by Roger Bacon to Pope Clement IV: from the aspirations to prolongatio vitae, also supported by alchemical instruments, to new sensitivities aimed at entrusting cura corporis to an increasingly intense medicalisation. The new introduction to the volume, first published in 1991, concisely summarises the long path of research that the author and the most qualified historiography have carried out on these themes over the last three decades.

AuthorBased on the previous monograph, «La papessa Giovanna: i testi della leggenda» (Florence, Sismel Edizioni del Galluzzo 2021 www.sismel.it), the most complete collection of the medieval sources on the legend of Pope Joan, and on the legend of the verification of the masculinity of a new elected pope, written between 1250 and 1500, this volume presents a complete survey on the literary tradition dealing with both legends, a general historical interpretation as well as a selection of texts (original text, french translation, commentary).

Basé sur la monographie précédente, "La papessa Giovanna : i testi della leggenda" (Florence, Sismel Edizioni del Galluzzo 2021 www.sismel.it), la collection la plus complète des sources médiévales sur la légende de la papesse Jeanne, et sur la légende de la vérification de la masculinité d'un nouveau pape, écrites entre 1250 et 1500, ce volume présente une étude complète sur la tradition littéraire traitant de ces deux légendes, une interprétation historique générale ainsi qu'une sélection de textes (texte original, traduction française, commentaire).

In the middle of the thirteenth century, a legend emerged according to which, on an uncertain date, a highly cultured woman was elected pope before her cross-dressing was revealed, prompting the Holy See to subsequently ensure the masculinity of any new pontiff. How did the extraordinary story of a woman becoming pope come about from independent sources, and why was it long established as factual, before withering away at the dawn of the modern era? How did it evolve across Europe, with variations in its narrative and with what moral and institutional implications? Finally, how was this legend used to settle the question of women's access to the priesthood? This is an investigation into the formation and development of this famous legend, based on all the known texts and supplemented by a selection of the main stories with commentary.

Au milieu du xiii e siècle apparaît une légende selon laquelle, à une date incertaine, une femme d'une grande culture fut élue pape avant que son travestissement soit révélé, ce qui aurait incité le Saint-Siège à s'assurer par la suite de la masculinité de tout nouveau souverain pontife. Comment l'histoire extraordinaire d'une femme devenue pape s'est-elle constituée à partir de sources autonomes et pourquoi s'est-elle établie longtemps comme factuelle, avant de s'étioler à l'aube de l'époque moderne ? Comment at -elle évolué à travers l'Europe, avec des variations dans sa narration et avec quelles implications d'ordre moral et institutionnel ? Comment, enfin, s'est-on emparé de cette légende pour trancher la question de l'accession des femmes au sacerdoce ? On propose ici une enquête savante sur la formation et l'évolution de cette célèbre légende à partir de l'ensemble des textes connus, complétée par une sélection commentée des principaux récits.

Corps, gestes, images d'Innocent III à Boniface VIII", Agostino Paravicini Bagliani offers a complete, synthetic and original reflection on the use of symbol(s) in the sphere of the Roman papacy in the 13th century. The chronological framework chosen for this study corresponds, according to the author, to the apogee of papal power and the perfect mastery of the potential offered by the oral, written, visual and symbolic discourse emanating from the pope. The development of an effective symbolic vocabulary, linked to a complex system of self-representation of the pope, constitutes the double guideline of this study. As the text unfolds, punctuated by various points of reflection, the reader gradually becomes aware of the richness, diversity and complexity of the symbol, in the broadest sense, as a multifaceted object. The twenty articles that make up this collection draw on several disciplines and deal with various subjects. The theme of the body of the pope in its double dimension-physical and institutional-is particularly present in this work, conceived as a synthesis of several years of research launched in 1994 in "Il corpo del papa". The author summarises this research at the beginning of the book (pp. 3-20).

Dans son ouvrage intitulé »Le monde symbolique de la papauté. Corps, gestes, images d'Innocent III à Boniface VIII«, Agostino Paravicini Bagliani propose une réflexion complète, synthétique et originale sur l'usage du et des symbole(s) dans la sphère de la papauté romaine au XIII e siècle. Le cadre chronologique choisi pour cette étude correspond, selon l'auteur, à l'apogée de la puissance pontificale et à la maitrise parfaite du potentiel offert par le discours oral, écrit, visuel et symbolique émanant du pape. La mise en place d'un vocabulaire symbolique efficace, lié à un système complexe d'auto-représentation du pape, constitue le double fil directeur de cette étude. Au fil du texte jalonné de différents points de réflexions, le lecteur prend progressivement conscience de toute la richesse, la diversité et la complexité du symbole, au sens large, en tant qu'objet multifacette 1. Les vingt articles qui composent ce recueil font appel à plusieurs disciplines et traitent de sujets divers. La thématique du corps du pape dans sa double dimension-physique et institutionnelle-est particulièrement présente dans cet ouvrage conçu comme une synthèse de plusieurs années de recherches lancées en 1994 dans »Il corpo del papa« 2. L'auteur en dresse d'ailleurs un bilan au début du présent ouvrage (p. 3-20).

All those – 109 – texts (short biographies, chronical notices etc. etc.), from the very first notice on Pope Joan (John of Mailly O.P., 1250-1254) till 1500, are presented in their original language (latin, greek, vernacular medieval languages: French, English, Italian, Middle-german, etc.) followed by an Italian translation. Many of these texts are famous, as the biography dedicated to Pope Joan by Boccaccio. Each text is object of a detailed historical, literary and codicological commentary. A large introduction presents the results of this vast inquiry. A rich collection of illustrations permit to exam how the notice of that extraordinary «new» pontificate been written down by medieval scribes as well as the visual representation of Pope Joan. The volume lists also a large number of censorships, against the portrait of Pope Joan or her biography, to be observed in incunabula and old printed editions (XVIth-XVIIIth century). The anthology of texts on Pope Joan is preceded by two texts of Xth-XIth century related with the legend of a patriarch woman. The last section contains the critical exam of each false interpolation on Pope Joan made by modern editors of medieval chronicles (from 1550 on) ans scholars.

Il mondo antico ha attuato un’identificazione, per antitesi o similarità, della figura umana con quella animale, attraverso una polisemica rete di simboli e allegorie. Richiamandosi all’uguaglianza creaturale propria della concezione biblica, il Medioevo tenderà a cristallizzare un immaginario collettivo simbolico legato al mondo animale destinato a perdurare fino al mondo moderno.

Intorno alla realtà e al mito di Carlo Magno un'epoca si costruisce, ricca di contraddizioni e di ambiguità, per la raffinatezza delle esperienze intellettuali e per la violenza della lotta politica; per l'assetto nuovo della società e per il tentativo di rappresentarlo in forme che richiamano la tradizione classica. Nell'insieme di queste tensioni il medioevo carolingio riesce ad esprimere una sua cifra, che resterà di riferimento dentro e oltre il millennio medievale, nella nostalgia di un ordine mitico e nella consapevolezza di una nuova forza che sta crescendo e che può dare forma ad un mondo radicalmente diverso da quello dell'antichità. La ricerca, che nell'ultimo secolo si è dedicata al fenomeno carolingio, consente oggi di chiarirne molti aspetti e di indicarne il profilo, ma ha anche messo a punto gli strumenti per un cantiere di lavoro che promette ancora molte novità. Con questo volume si intende offrire uno status quaestionis, insieme alle direzioni del lavoro futuro. Around the reality and myth of Charlemagne, an era has been built. This era is full of contradictions and ambiguities, for the refinement of intellectual experiences and the violence of the political struggle; for the new social structure and the attempt to represent it in forms recalling the classical tradition. With these tensions the Carolingian Middle Ages is able to express its figure, which will remain a reference within and beyond the Medieval Millennium, in the nostalgia of a mythical order and in the awareness of a new force that is growing and that can give form to a radically different world from that of the Antiquity. This volume offers a status quaestionis, but it also indicates new directions for future work.

Elles se présentent comme une série de questions et réponses entre Khālid b. Yazīd b. Mu'āwiya (m. 704), fils du deuxième calife omeyyade, et Maryānus, moine byzantin alchimiste. Ce texte occupe une place de choix dans l'histoire de l'alchimie. Il a été rédigé en arabe, peut-être dans la première moitié du X e siècle. Il est le premier traité d'alchimie à avoir été intégralement traduit en latin, en 1144 par Robert de Chester, sous le titre Morienus (Morien). Cette traduction a connu une très large diffusion en Occident, avec plusieurs éditions et traductions en langues vernaculaires dès le XVI e siècle. Le texte arabe n'avait jamais été édité. Quant aux deux versions latines principales, elles avaient connu des éditions, mais celle-ci étaient anciennes et non-critiques; de plus, elles ne tenaient pas compte de l'original arabe, désormais disponible. Le présent ouvrage offre au lecteur une édition critique et une traduction française du texte arabe et de ces deux versions latines. Il propose également une étude et un commentaire du texte. Du côté arabe, ceux-ci portent sur son contexte de production, ses sources et la doctrine qu'il véhicule. Du côté latin, l'étude s'intéresse à la place du Morienus dans le mouvement des traductions arabo-latines médiévales et aux spécificités de la traduction par rapport à son original. Les traditions textuelles des trois versions éditées sont également étudiées en détail.

From Aristotle to the English Puritan theologians of the seventeenth century, via the monks ‘who do not sleep’ and John Calvin, whose appreciation of sleep served to affirm the ideals of the Reformation, this work explores the way in which sleep and its causes, benefits and risks, have been perceived. Following Avicenna, medieval physicians such as Pietro d'Abano, Bernard de Gordon, Gentile da Foligno and Jacques Despars developed a veritable science of sleep, distinguishing finely between different types of sleep and wakefulness. As for the authors of the health regimes, they demonstrated the virtues of sleep for maintaining health and advised not only on the duration and timing of sleep, but also on the positions to adopt during it. The daily sleeping habits of a young man - the future King Louis XIII - are studied thanks to the exceptional source of the Diary kept by Jean Héroard, his physician. Finally, particular attention is paid to the places where people slept, whether it be the evolution towards the use of individual cells in the Cluniac world, the growing habit among canons regular of sleeping outside the convent, or the pope's bedroom, from the very early Middle Ages to the modern era.

Résumé en français - Parcourant une très longue durée, le présent volume réunit des médiévistes et des modernistes aux approches variées autour de l’histoire du sommeil dans ses dimensions théoriques, ses représentations et ses pratiques. D’Aristote aux théologiens puritains
anglais du XVIIe siècle, en passant par les moines «qui ne dorment
pas» et Jean Calvin dont la valorisation du sommeil sert à affirmer les idéaux de la Réforme, cet ouvrage explore la manière dont le sommeil et ses causes, ses bienfaits et ses risques, ont été perçus. À la suite d’Avicenne, des médecins médiévaux tels que Pietro d’Abano, Bernard de Gordon, Gentile da Foligno et Jacques Despars élaborent une véritable science du sommeil, distinguant finement différents types de sommeil et de veille. Quant aux auteurs des régimes de santé, ils démontrent les vertus du sommeil pour la conservation de la santé et conseillent non seulement la durée du sommeil et ses horaires, mais également les
positions à adopter lors de celui-ci. La pratique quotidienne du sommeil d’un jeune individu – le futur roi Louis XIII – est étudiée grâce à la source exceptionnelle que constitue le Journal tenu par Jean Héroard, son médecin. Une attention particulière est enfin réservée aux lieux du sommeil, qu’il s’agisse de l’évolution vers l’usage de cellules individuelles dans le monde clunisien, de l’habitude croissante chez les chanoines réguliers de dormir en dehors du couvent, ou encore de la chambre du pape, depuis le très haut Moyen Âge jusqu’à l’époque moderne.

What wereknown as recepta - and their vernacular equivalents - survive from the medieval world in their thousands, for arange of purposes far beyond medicine, most commonly in cookery, but also alchemy, metallurgy, colours,cosmetics and magic. The essays here come from different cultural contexts, even if predominantly fromWestern Europe and its links with scholars of the Islamic world of the first millennium CE. They have theirgenesis in a conference held under the auspices of the International Union of Academies, of which ProfessorParavicini Bagliani is honorary president, and a project codirected by Professor Laurioux on Cooking Recipes ofthe Middle Ages (CoReMA -

beings as such, a force that dominates them in their innermost
being. In this sense, it presents itself as a given of nature that comes
before any reflection on it or attempt to discipline it. At the same
time, the imaginary worlds created around desire, which have
described its essence and pervasiveness, represent one of the most
fascinating pages in the cultural history of human civilization. The
medieval period contributed significantly to this cultural production,
not only in terms of theological-philosophical reflection.
Following an interdisciplinary and transcultural approach, this
volume proposes an investigation into the processes that contributed
to building the cultural image of the phenomenon of desire. The
focus is on the texts, the sociopolitical and intellectual contexts,
and the actors involved in this cultural construction as it took
shape within the Mediterranean basin in the centuries from late
antiquity to the early modern age. In this geographical space, the
great cultural traditions that marked the medieval era – Christian,
Jewish, Arab – interacted with each other over centuries, creating
a laboratory that has left a unique legacy to the modern world.
This interaction represents a fruitful field of investigation for
understanding the history of medieval and early modern societies
in terms of thought and on the social and institutional level.

Bacon places morality at the top of the hierarchy of the sciences confirming the primacy of praxis and in contrast to traditional theological and exegetical ethics and the scholastic commentaries on the scholastic comments to the Nicomachean Ethics. Moreover, he resumes in this the criticism of the Christian culture of his time and states that morality, oriented towards human salvation, can play the role due to it, as queen of the sciences only by learning the lesson of the ancients, among whom Seneca excels. The result of years of seminar research, this translation, accompanied accompanied by commentary notes, reveals the affinity of method and the different skills of the group that edited it with the aim of dealing in depth with Baconian moral philosophy, exploring its multiple themes and theological sources,
metaphysical, astrological, historical, rhetorical and legal sources.

Il libro presenta la prima traduzione italiana della Moralis philosophia,
che costituisce l’ultima parte dell’Opus maius, la vasta e
originale proposta di riforma del sapere del francescano inglese
Ruggero Bacone indirizzata a papa Clemente IV nel 1267.
Bacone colloca la morale al vertice della gerarchia delle scienze,
a conferma del primato della praxis e in controtendenza rispetto
all’etica tradizionale d’impianto teologico ed esegetico e ai commenti
scolastici all’Etica Nicomachea. Inoltre riprende in questo
ambito la critica alla cultura cristiana del suo tempo e afferma
che la morale, orientata alla salvezza umana, può svolgere il ruolo,
che le spetta, di regina delle scienze soltanto apprendendo la
lezione degli antichi, fra cui primeggia Seneca. Frutto di una
ricerca seminariale pluriennale, questa traduzione, accompagnata
da note di commento, lascia trasparire l’affinità di metodo e le
competenze diverse del gruppo che l’ha curata con l’obiettivo
di affrontare in maniera approfondita la filosofia morale baconiana,
esplorandone le molteplici tematiche e le fonti teologiche,
metafisiche, astrologiche, storiche, retoriche e giuridiche.

During the eleventh and twelfth centuries, translations of Greek and Arabic texts into Latin reve... more During the eleventh and twelfth centuries, translations of Greek and Arabic texts into Latin revealed to western Europeans a new and exciting vision of medicine as «theory»-that is, as a coherent science grounded in classical principles of physica, physiology, and anatomy. The Isagoge is the translation by Constantine the African (d. ca. 1099) of the Masā'il fī t-tibb, a teaching summary of Galen's Technē iatrikē (Art of Medicine or Tegni) by the ninth-century Baghdadi Nestorian translator and medical author Ḥunayn ibn Ishāq, known in the West as Johannitius. The Isagoge is a beginner's key to the essential concepts of Galenism: it covers the body itself, its constituents, structures and functions; the relationship of the body to its changeable material environment; and the causes and symptoms of diseases. Within a few decades of its translation into Latin, the Isagoge had become the flagship text of an anthology designed for teaching medicina theorica, the so-called Articella. Teaching the Articella, and in the first instance, the Isagoge, was carried out using methods of text analysis associated with philosophy and the artes, and is recorded in magisterial commentaries. The first full suite of Articella commentaries ascribed to a named teacher are those of Master Bartholomeus (fl. ca. 1150), a teacher and practitioner who enjoyed considerable fame as well as important social and intellectual connections. Bartholomeus' Isagoge commentary survives in reportata by his students, as well as in an incomplete revised edition prepared by the master himself. It is exceptional for its ambitious intellectual scope, its engagement with new translations of the works of Galen and Aristotle, and its use of questiones-all hallmarks of the emerging forms of instruction in the medieval schools.

In the 12th century, the initiation manuals for such teachings were the «De pulsibus Philareti» and the «Liber urinarum Theophili», short treatises included in the programme of the «Ars medicine» and thus the object of repeated exegetical readings by the masters. If in general the corpus of commentaries on the Ars medicine is still largely unpublished, this also and especially applies to the «glosulae» relating to Philaretus' pamphlet that concisely summarised highly complex galenic doctrines. The present volume offers a critical edition of three commentaries on Salerno, all of which have been handed down anonymously. First in chronological order, the so-called Anonymous Digby starts the series and, at the beginning of the 12th century, proposes the simplest interpretation. The second commentary, handed down from a single manuscript with no indication of author, is actually the work of Bartholomew of Salerno, being a 'parallel' version of his 'main' reading, already known to scholars though unpublished. Last in order of time, the Anonymous of Munich, with its broader and more elaborate glosses, marks the final stage and, also represented by a variant redaction transmitted from a manuscript in Prague, opens up new areas of research in the history of commentators on the Ars medicine. The three texts are published here with an Italian translation and explanatory notes.

The human soul, endowed with wings, which soars to the heights of the heavens or, on the contrary... more The human soul, endowed with wings, which soars to the heights of the heavens or, on the contrary, loses them and is forced to suffer in the depths of the earth or, worse, is condemned to plunge into the abyssal underworld, is a metaphor thousands of years old and often present in the ancient world. Its starting point seems to be summer Athens, where Plato sets the Phaedrus amidst choruses of cicadas; it is transformed and adapted to the new symbolic-literary sensibilities of philosophers and believers at the end of the classical age; finally, through unexpected metamorphoses, along sometimes obscure and contradictory paths, it lands in the Baghdad of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 10th centuries, where various scholars of Greek philosophy (falsafa) make it their own using the ever-living tools of commentary and creative paraphrasis.
This volume attempts to retrace this long journey, examining and comparing Greek and Arabic, Christian and Islamic literary texts, sometimes little studied like those of some Muslim ascetics and mystics who, having the Koranic word as their guide, promoted the formation of Sufism; It highlights and emphasises uses, re-uses, re-appropriations of ancient stylistic elements, which each author recreated and revived to better ground his thought on prestigious traditions and better support his yearning for contemplation of the sublime and annihilation in the ineffable.

L’anima umana, dotata di ali, che spicca il volo verso l’alto dei cieli o, al contrario, perdendole, è costretta a soffrire nelle bassure terrestri o, peggio, è condannata a precipitare negli inferi abissali, è metafora millenaria e spesso presente nel mondo antico. Il suo punto di avvio sembra essere l’Atene estiva, dove Platone ambienta il Fedro tra cori di cicale; si trasforma e adatta alle nuove sensibilità simbolico-letterarie di filosofi e credenti al termine dell’età classica; infine, per metamorfosi inattese, lungo vie talvolta oscure e contraddittorie, approda nella Baghdad dei secoli II/VIII-IV/X, dove vari cultori della filosofia greca (falsafa) la fanno propria usando i sempre vivi strumenti del commento e della paraphrasis creativa.
Il volume prova a ripercorrere questo lungo viaggiare, esaminando e confrontando testi letterari greci e arabi, cristiani e islamici, talvolta poco studiati come quelli di alcuni asceti e mistici musulmani che, avendo per guida la parola coranica, hanno promosso la formazione del sufismo; evidenzia e sottolinea usi, riusi, riappropriazioni di antichi stilemi, che ogni autore ha ricreato e fatto rivivere per meglio fondare il suo pensiero su tradizioni prestigiose e meglio sorreggere il suo anelito alla contemplazione del sublime e all’annientamento nell’ineffabile.

The «Formicarius» by the dominican friar Johannes Nider, a leading figure in the German Observanc... more The «Formicarius» by the dominican friar Johannes Nider, a leading figure in the German Observance, is a collection of miracles, a treatise on religious life and a pastoral guide for young Dominicans. Taking as its main model the «Bonum universale de apibus» by Thomas de Cantimpré († 1272), it presents, in the form of a dialogue between a theologian (Nider himself) and his pupil, a teaching on the morals of good and bad men, developed from an allegorical interpretation of the properties of the ants and illustrated by a collection of around 160 «miracula» and «exempla». The whole is divided into five books in which good and bad men are identified with clerics and laymen who adhere to or, conversely, reject the values of Observance. Organized in this way, the Formicarius defines a program designed to promote the reform of Christian society as a whole. The work is an important source for religious life in the first decades of the 15th century. Information on the spiritual aspirations of the laity rubs shoulders with doctrinal deviances and the practice of witchcraft, making it one of the first texts to describe the notorious belief in the Sabbath.
Despite its interest, the collection was only available on the basis of early editions. The present study fills this gap by presenting the first critical edition of the text, supplemented by a French translation (vol. 2). It is preceded by a study devoted, in particular, to the author's biography, the manuscript tradition of the «Formicarius», the oral and written sources of the collection and an analysis of the information developed in each of the five books (vol. 1).

Le Formicarius ou «Fourmilière» du dominicain Jean Nider, une
grande figure de l’Observance allemande, est tout à la fois un recueil
de miracles, un traité sur la vie religieuse et un guide pastoral
destiné aux jeunes dominicains. Ayant comme principal modèle le
Bonum universale de apibus de Thomas de Cantimpré († 1272), il
présente, sous la forme d’un dialogue entre un théologien (Nider
lui-même) et son élève, un enseignement sur les moeurs des
hommes bons et mauvais qui est développé à partir de l’interprétation
allégorique des propriétés de la fourmi avant d’être illustré par
une collection d’environ 160 miracula et exempla. L’ensemble est divisé
en cinq livres dans lesquels les hommes bons et mauvais sont
identifiés aux clercs et aux laïcs qui adhérent ou, à l’inverse, rejettent
les valeurs de l’Observance. Ainsi organisé, le Formicarius définit
un programme visant à promouvoir la réforme de l’ensemble de
la société chrétienne. L’oeuvre est une source importante pour la
vie religieuse des premières décennies du XVe siècle. Les informations
sur les aspirations spirituelles des laïcs y côtoient les déviances
doctrinales et la pratique de la sorcellerie qui en font un des premiers
textes à avoir décrit la fameuse croyance au sabbat.
Malgré son intérêt, le recueil n’était disponible que sur la base
d’éditions anciennes. La présente étude comble cette lacune en présentant
la première édition critique du texte, complétée par une traduction
française (vol. 2). Elle est précédée par une étude consacrée,
en particulier, à la biographie de l’auteur, à la tradition manuscrite du
Formicarius, aux sources orales et écrites du recueil et à l’analyse des
enseignements développés dans chacun des cinq livres (vol. 1).

Il papato, al centro del libro, è concepito appunto come universo simbolico. Evidente è il rapporto tra simboli e istituzioni e dunque tra simboli e potere, e la conseguente cura istituzionale dei simboli, la loro custodia e il patrocinio sulla loro evoluzione. Il libro è costituito da una serie di articoli pubblicati su un grande quotidiano tra il 2005 e il 2014, suscitati da fatti dell'attualità e per questo indicati come frammenti di cronaca che riguardano grandi avvenimenti: i funerali di papa Giovanni Paolo II, la rinuncia al papato di Benedetto XVI, l'elezione di papa Francesco... Molti dei riti e simboli di cui si parla sono stati perfezionati nel Medioevo e nella prima Età moderna; molti di essi sono oggi ancora in uso, a conferma del fatto che il papato è un'istituzione che si iscrive sempre in una prospettiva plurisecolare. Ma anche il recente abbandono di antichi riti e simboli suscita riflessioni e persino curiosità.

For over twenty-five years, historians of medieval science, literature and cultural awareness, philosophy, art and representation have exchanged ideas on the relationship between medieval nature and society in Micrologus. Nature, Sciences and Medieval Societies and Micrologus’
Library. Many of the Micrologus conferences – since the first Discorsi dei corpi / Discourses of the Body, Erice 1991, published in 1993 – have been devoted to topics associated with the history of the body, such as sight and vision, the heart, the cadaver, human skin, the five senses, the body and its ornaments, the extremities and growths, the body of the prince, portraiture and representation of the individual, Adam, the first man, and alchemy and medicine.
For this reason we wish to begin this series of e-books with the topic the human body; specifically, a collection of studies on the female body precedes this volume on black skin (medi@evi 5).

For over twenty-five years, historians of medieval science, literature and cultural awareness, philosophy, art and representation have exchanged ideas on the relationship between medieval nature and society in Micrologus. Nature, Sciences and Medieval Societies and Micrologus’ Library.
The richness and multiplicity of approaches and themes present in the many articles published since 1993 in the journal Micrologus and since 1997 in the series Micrologus’ Library1 have now made it possible for us to undertake a new publishing venture thanks to new technologies. The publication of e-books will, in fact, offer a wider audience of scholars and students monograph collections on subjects
dealing with the cosmos, nature, and the body in their relations to medieval societies through previously published and hitherto unpublished research by highlighting new topics and thematic approaches.

In the Summa de ecclesiastica potestate (1322-1326 ca.), Augustine of Ancona dedicates a quaestio to the superiority of the pope over the angels (papa maior est angelis) in order to support the universality of his authority, on earth as it is in heaven. A few years earlier, within the 'myth' of the angelic pope, the identification of the pope with the angel of the Apocalypse, as in the Expositio super Apocalypsi (1306), served instead to confer on the pontiff an authority to reform the Church and establish peace in the (political) society of his time.

Le sommeil Théories, représentations et pratiques (Moyen Âge et époque moderne) Textes réunis par Bernard Andenmatten, Karine Crousaz et Agostino Paravicini Bagliani, Firenze, Sismel Edizioni del Galluzzo, 2023 (Micrologus Library, 125)

From Aristotle to the English Puritan theologians of the seventeenth century, via the monks ‘who do not sleep’ and John Calvin, whose valorisation of sleep served to affirm the ideals of the Reformation, this work explores the way in which sleep and its causes, its benefits and its risks, have been perceived. Following Avicenna, medieval physicians such as Pietro d'Abano, Bernard de Gordon, Gentile da Foligno and Jacques Despars developed a veritable science of sleep, distinguishing finely between different types of sleep and wakefulness. As for the authors of the health regimes, they demonstrated the virtues of sleep for maintaining health and advised not only on the duration and timing of sleep, but also on the positions to adopt during it. The daily sleeping habits of a young man - the future King Louis XIII - are studied thanks to the exceptional source of the Diary kept by Jean Héroard, his physician. Finally, particular attention is paid to the places where people slept, whether it be the evolution towards the use of individual cells in the Cluniac world, the growing habit among canons regular of sleeping outside the convent, or the pope's bedroom, from the very early Middle Ages to the modern era.

Parcourant une très longue durée, le présent volume réunit des
médiévistes et des modernistes aux approches variées autour de
l’histoire du sommeil dans ses dimensions théoriques, ses représentations
et ses pratiques. D’Aristote aux théologiens puritains
anglais du XVIIe siècle, en passant par les moines «qui ne dorment
pas» et Jean Calvin dont la valorisation du sommeil sert à
affirmer les idéaux de la Réforme, cet ouvrage explore la manière
dont le sommeil et ses causes, ses bienfaits et ses risques, ont été
perçus. À la suite d’Avicenne, des médecins médiévaux tels que
Pietro d’Abano, Bernard de Gordon, Gentile da Foligno et
Jacques Despars élaborent une véritable science du sommeil,
distinguant finement différents types de sommeil et de veille. Quant
aux auteurs des régimes de santé, ils démontrent les vertus du
sommeil pour la conservation de la santé et conseillent non seulement
la durée du sommeil et ses horaires, mais également les
positions à adopter lors de celui-ci. La pratique quotidienne du
sommeil d’un jeune individu – le futur roi Louis XIII – est étudiée
grâce à la source exceptionnelle que constitue le Journal
tenu par Jean Héroard, son médecin. Une attention particulière est
enfin réservée aux lieux du sommeil, qu’il s’agisse de l’évolution
vers l’usage de cellules individuelles dans le monde clunisien, de
l’habitude croissante chez les chanoines réguliers de dormir en
dehors du couvent, ou encore de la chambre du pape, depuis le
très haut Moyen Âge jusqu’à l’époque moderne.

the Middle Ages and the modern era since the second half of the nineteenth
century, the papal bedroom remains an unexplored subject, in
contrast to the wealth of studies devoted to the bedrooms of secular
sovereigns in the Middle Ages. By cross-referencing documentary, artistic,
documentary and literary sources of various kinds, from Gregory
the Great (590-604) to Leo X (1513-1521), it has been possible to illustrate
the private and public nature of the pope’s chamber in the last
centuries of the Middle Ages. References to the papal chamber made by
witnesses at the trial against Boniface VIII (1294-1303) are offerred in
the appendix.

Les traités de démonologie, qui prennent leur essor au même moment, ne proposent pas seulement une réflexion sur la nouvelle croyance au sabbat des sorcières, mais ils s'efforcent aussi de rassembler tout le savoir relatif au diable et aux démons et à leur pouvoir d'action sur le monde et sur les êtres humains. Ils examinent les relations possibles entre les démons et les hommes dans le cadre de la sorcellerie, de la magie ou de la possession, tout en indiquant les moyens de se protéger des attaques démoniaques.Les démonologues, experts dans la 'science des démons', cherchent à insérer la croyance au sabbat dans le cadre traditionnel de la démonologie chrétienne, qu'ils contribuent à redéfinir. Leurs écrits, qui sont à la fois des synthèses et des oeuvres de rupture, sont le produit d'une méthode intellectuelle pensée comme scientifique et rationnelle.La présente étude est basée sur l'analyse thématique de plusieurs traités de démonologie inédits, parmi lesquels le Tractatus contra invocatores demonum, du théologien dominicain Jean Vinet (c.1450), le Flagellum hereticorum fascinariorum de l'inquisiteur dominicain Nicolas Jacquier (1458), ainsi que le Flagellum maleficorum de Pierre Mamoris, professeur de théologie à Poitiers (avant 1462). Ces textes anticipent d'une trentaine d'années le contenu du fameux Marteau des sorcières (1486), considéré souvent à tort comme le premier traité du genre

The Hearsay in the Legend on the Female Pope – In the vast majority of the 109 texts on the legend of the female pope that have been collected up to 1500, ut dicitur type formulations are literary borrowings, which is why they should not be considered as evidence of
‘hearsay’. In only one of the two oldest notices on the female pope (Chronica minor), does the mention of ‘hearsay’ indicate that the author wishes it to be a true ‘hearsay’ that did not, however, circulate among the Roman ‘people’, but among the high Roman and curial clergy. Martino Polono’s version contains three formulas that seem to support the general purpose of the narrative: the exclusion of the female pope from the list of supreme pontiffs and his elimination from the historical memory of the papacy. Of the twenty one literary texts concerning the second legend of Pope Joan, that of the verification of the newly-elected pontiff ’s masculinity, only the first three present ut dicitur formulas: their function is that to emphasize the novelty of an information that could not fail to arouse curiosity.

scientific contributions – that since the first decades of the XIIIth
century the main literary sources dealing with the problem of ‘perfect
health’ and rejuvenation have become particularly prevalent at the papal
court. Even up to the Early Modern Age, the papal court emerges as one
of the main social environments in which prolongevity theories have
spread. It is therefore possible to exam the theories on prolongevity not
only as a bodily figure of desire but as an instrument of power.

A large number of recipe books are still preserved in libraries all around the world: for the only western medieval cookery, we can estimate the existing recipes at more than 15.000. One of the most important cultural centers of production was probably the court, as courts of England, France, Burgundy and Savoy and, of course, the papal court at Rome or Avignon. Inspite of some pioneering publications from the interwar and postwar period, this vast field of research has not been the subject of as many works as the importance of recipes in the cultural life of precontemporary societies might have led one to expect. The aim of the present volume is to propose a step forward in the scientific study of recipes by privileging the dialogue in a transcultural perspective in the different fields where they are of some importance.

According to the tradition that characterises the colloquia of Micrologus. Nature, Sciences and Medieval Societies, published by the S.I.S.M.E.L. (Florence), this converence has been conceived as a long-term event, involving researchers from thematically, chronologically and spatially transversal disciplines. For this reason, the courts of Western Europe, which are particularly rich in documentary material (Savoy, Burgundy, France, the Netherlands and the Iberian Peninsula), have been the focus of attention, together with those of Byzantium, princes or sultans of the Islamic world (including al-Andalus) and the Grand Dukes of Muscovy.

Le colloque international Les gestes à la cour (XIIe-XVIIIe siècle) qui s’est tenu l’Université de Lausanne les 28-30 novembre 2018, et dont les actes sont réunis dans ce volume, s’est propose de vérifier la thèse selon laquelle les cours aux derniers siècles du Moyen Âge et à l’époque moderne constituent pour l’historien des gestes un observatoire privilégié, ne serait-ce qu’en raison du privilège documentaire qui caractérise les cours souveraines et les élites sociales, qui ont laissé un grand nombre de témoignages écrits aussi bien sur la vie quotidienne qu’à propos de la vie rituelle et cérémonielle. Selon la tradition qui caractérise les colloques de Micrologus. Nature, Sciences and Medieval Societies, publiés par la S.I.S.M.E.L. (Florence), ce colloque a été conçu en embrassant la longue durée et en faisant appel à des chercheurs appartenant à des disciplines transversales sur le plan thématique, chronologique et spatial. C’est la raison pour laquelle des cours de l’Europe occidentale, particulièrement riches sur le plan documentaire (Savoie, Bourgogne, France, Pays-Bas et Péninsule ibérique) ont retenu l’attention en même temps que celles de Byzance, de princes ou sultans du monde islamique (y compris al-Andalus) et des Grands Ducs de Moscovie.

La vivacità degli studi bonifaciani di questi ultimi due-tre decenni, favorita anche dalla ricca produzione storiografica nata intorno al settecentesimo anniversario della morte del pontefice (1303-2003), e anche dalle nuove possibilità offerte dalle moderne tecnologie che rendono possibili ricerche testuali più ampie, oltre che, ovviamente, dal desiderio di riesaminare un episodio così importante alla luce di una più raffinata lettura storiografica, hanno dato vita a questo volume di Marco Ciocchetti, che porta giustamente il sottotitolo di Raccolta e critica dei testi contemporanei.
La ricerca storica futura su questo pontificato non potrà ignorare questo importante volume.
La sua chiara articolazione potrà rendere grandi servigi anche sul piano didattico, obiettivo sempre troppo trascurato dalla ricerca storica. Anche da questo punto di vista potrà servire da modello». (Dalla Prefazione di Agostino Paravicini Bagliani)

Agostino Paravicini Bagliani, Roger Bacon and the prolongatio vite. A Scientific Utopia? Roger Bacon is the medieval author who has written so frequently and extensively on the possiblity that the man’s life could be prolonged. His thinking system on that subject may be found in all the three greatest works (Opus majus, Opus minus, Opus tertium) which have been written down for a pope, Clement IV. The present note is intended to examine if and how the Baconian main arguments on the prolongatio vite may be defined as a scientific utopia, with respect to the medieval cultural and scientific context.

(XIII th Century).
The research work of the last decades let arise the papal court in the
XIIIth century as a social milieu particularly interested in the science of
nature, from astronomy to medical alchemy, from medicine to geomancy.
It is a scientific movement involving popes, cardinals and
prelates of the roman curia as chaplains or penitentiaries. Its vitality is
underlined by the fact that those churchmen were the dedicatees of a
long series of scientific works – 28 including 3 opera spuria – belonging
to scientific disciplines or subjects as mathematics, astronomy, geomancy,
medicine, surgery, prolongation of life, or explaining the function
of astrolabs or the worlds of nature and the body as moral
metaphors. The original text of those 28 dedications – incipits, prologues
or letters – is given in the appendix, with the informations on
the manuscript and textual tradition.

In a recent research (Il bestiario del papa, Torino, Einaudi, 2016; Le bestiaire du pape, Paris,... more In a recent research (Il bestiario del papa, Torino, Einaudi, 2016; Le bestiaire du pape, Paris, Les Belles Lettres, 2018) I examined the role that some forty animals played over a very long period in the construction of papal sovereignty, such as the horse, to express aspirations for reform, controversy and criticism, as in the prophecies of the popes, or to delegitimise papal power, such as Martin Luther's Papstesel. The need to follow the vicissitudes of animals over a long, sometimes very long period of time suggested choosing the form of the Bestiary, a narrative form that allows us to focus on the symbolic values that motivated their presence in the history of the papacy, without diluting them in a literary history that would account for the symbolic multiplicity of animals between Antiquity and Modernity.
Here I will now attempt to reflect on continuity, an element that is a red thread running through this rich and in a sense extraordinary series of animals.
There are many animals whose symbolic history I have had to follow over a very long period of time: the dove, the dragon or the basilisk, the horse and the parrot, but also the donkey and the camel, the elephant, the phoenix and the peacock, the lion and other feral animals, the ritual use of moss as perfume or the papal discourse on hunting. It is an impressive continuity, not least because it does not seem to be attested as such for any other sovereignty in the Western world. And it is a continuity that proves that even animals make history, because an institution with universal aspirations such as the papacy has had to rely on the strength of often ancient cultural traditions.
Taking into account the time available, I will focus on three animals, all three of fundamental importance over the very long period - dove, horse, parrot - and on the only perfume of animal origin known in the Middle Ages, musk, perhaps the most cherished and prestigious perfume between the Middle Ages and the modern age.
And I will do so starting from four questions-observations:

Sometimes the availability of new research possibilities causes acceleration in this process. This is what has happened over the last few weeks, as the attentive reader will notice the many changes in Mirabile. Thanks to a fruitful exchange of ideas in SISMEL - sponsored by Agostino Paravicini Bagliani and Lucia Pinelli -, and thanks to an intensive designed work, shared with our IT staff - and in particular with Matteo Salvestrini -, the section «Works» has been totally renewed by
providing both new fields and new query possibilities, and thus enriching all other data in Mirabile. It will now be possible to obtain corpora of
previously unavailable data that will open new perspectives and new opportunities in Medieval Latin studies.
The work of checking and verifying the functioning of the renovated infrastructure, carried out by «Medioevo Latino»'s editorial board, has been extensive, but everything is perfectible! So, as always, any suggestions and observations will be greatly appreciated.

This assumption seems to dominate the common imagination. Indeed, work contributes to defining who we are, decides the expectations we have of our future, conditions the rhythms of personal and collective time, measures the perceptions we have of ourselves and others, shapes inner and community values and helps to define social and economic paradigms. But was the history of pre-industrial societies dominated by the same conception of work? Is it possible to reconstruct a cultural history of work? What contribution did the long Middle Ages that shaped Mediterranean societies from Late Antiquity to the 17th century make to this history?

Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
«Lavoriamo per vivere e viviamo per lavorare» (J.Suzman, 2020). Questo assunto sembra dominare ogg il’immaginario comune. Il lavoro contribuisce, infatti, a definire chi siamo, decide delle aspettative che abbiamo sul nostro futuro, condiziona i ritmi del tempo personale e collettivo, misura la percezione che abbiamo di noi stessi e degli altri, plasma i valori interiori e comunitari e contribuisce a definire paradigmi sociali ed economici. Ma la storia delle società preindustriali era dominata dalla medesima concezione del lavoro? È possibile ricostruire una storia culturale del lavoro? Quale contributo ha offerto a questa storia il lungo Medioevo che dall’età tardoantica al XVII secolo ha dato forma alle società mediterranee?

These recipes are common to such different knowledges as medicine and cookery, alchemy and magic, dyeing, metallurgy and cosmetics. A large number of recipe books are still preserved in libraries all around the world: for the only western medieval cookery, we can estimate the existing recipes at more than 15 000. One of the most important cultural centre of production was probably the court, as courts of Burgundy and Savoy and, of course, the papal court at Rome or Avignon. Writing the recipe includes the choice of an idiom – Latin or vernacular – which aims different audiences and receptions. The result of the recipes is a set of colors, smells, flavors and textures, which can be specific to a period, a civilization or an area. Studying the influences and exchanges between European and non-European recipes is therefore an essential point.

Entre le XIIe et le XVIIe siècles, la recette fut sans doute l’un des modes de diffusion les plus habituels dans le champ des sciences et des techniques en Europe occidentale comme dans l’Islam. Communes des savoirs aussi différents que la médecine et la cuisine, l’alchimie et la magie, la teinturerie et la métallurgie, la cosmétique et l’érotique, les recettes sont encore conservés en grand nombre dans les bibliothèques : pour la seule cuisine m di vale occidentale, on peut ainsi estimer leur nombre plus de 15 000.
Les recettes mettaient en communication des milieux très différents. On pense ces véritables centres culturels de première importance
que furent les cours de Bourgogne et de Savoie, mais aussi – bien entendu – la cour pontificale. L’écriture de la recette passe par le choix d’une langue – latin ou langues vulgaires – qui vise des publics différents et détermine des réceptions qui ne le sont pas moins. Le résultat de la recette est un ensemble plus ou moins large de couleurs, d’odeurs, de parfums, de textures. Il peut être spécifique d'une poque, d'une civilisation ou bien d'une région. C’est pourquoi l’étude des influences et des échanges entre recettes européennes et extra-européennes est un chantier essentiel.

Saranno i professori Alessandra Bartolomei Romagnoli (Pontificia Università Gregoriana) ed Emore Paoli (Università degli Studi di Roma “Tor Vergata”) a presentare il volume Miracolo! Emozione, spettacolo e potere nella storia dei secoli XIII-XVII, che raccoglie gli atti del terzo convegno storico internazionale tenutosi a Orvieto nei giorni 13-15 novembre 2018, frutto della collaborazione tra Opera del Duomo di Orvieto e Società Internazionale per lo Studio del Medioevo Latino (Firenze). Il Presidente dell’Opera del Duomo, Prefetto Gianfelice Bellesini, e il Presidente della SISMEL, prof. Agostino Paravicini Bagliani, porgeranno il saluto istituzionale. Dopo il tema del Corpus Domini, affrontato nel primo convegno, a Orvieto si è tornati a parlare di miracolo e delle domande che il fenomeno pone, esaminate nel lungo periodo e in un’ampia area geografica: dal medioevo all’età moderna, dall’Europa occidentale al Nuovo Mondo. La manifestazione del miracolo nelle società implica sospetti nei confronti del passaggio dal naturale al sovrannaturale, verifiche per la valutazione della santità e strategie per trasformare un corpo in un corpo santo; scatena l’immaginazione nella letteratura e nell’iconografia e dà luogo a eventi spettacolari, utilizzati al servizio di finalità religiose e politiche. Nei saggi che compongono il volume sono esaminati i temi e gli interrogativi che il miracolo pone, con attenzione alle grandi tradizioni interpretative del pensiero cristiano.
