Franciscus de Marchia Reportatio IIA
(Quaestiones in secundum librum Sententiarum) qq. 13-27
The texts edited in this volume deal with angelology and anthropology, and particularly with the nature and the functions of immaterial substances like angels and the human rational soul. Marchia discusses such controversial issues as universal hylomorphism, i.e., whether angels and the rational soul are composed of both matter and form (q. 13), the immortality of the soul (qq. 18-19), and the nature and the object of the intellect and will (qq. 20, 21), as well as the functionality of the angelic...

Henricus Gandavensis Quaestiones variae Henrico de Gandavo adscriptae
In the process of completing his critical edition of Marcus of Orvieto's Liber de Moralitatibus, Dr. Girard J. Etzkorn happened upon a set of questions attributed to Henry of Ghent at the end of Rome's Bibliotheca Angelica codex 750. These questions are edited in this volume under the proviso 'attributed to' so that scholars may compare the texts with other works of the Ghentian master known to be authentic. Based upon some initial comparisons Etzkorn concludes that the ten questions appear to be...

Petrus Thomae Petri Thomae quaestiones de esse intelligibili
First critical edition of Petrus Thomae's theory of non-causal dependence. This work of Scotist metaphysics is an investigation into the ultimate constitution of things. In the course of this treatise, Petrus Thomae examines whether the essences of things ultimately depend on being thought of by God for their very intelligibility or whether they have it of themselves. Defending in detail the second option, Peter argues that creatures exist independently of the divine intellect in the divine essence....

Platonic stoicism, Stoic Platonism
the dialogue between Platonism and Stoicism in antiquity

Juan Carlos Flores Henry of Ghent: metaphysics and the trinity
with a critical edition of question six of article fifty-five of the Summa Quaestionum Ordinariarum
The book elucidates Henry of Ghent's philosophical and theological system with special reference to his trinitarian writings. It demonstrates the fundamental role of the Trinity in Henry's philosophy and theology.

Thomas H. Macho Van wie is je leven?
cultuurgeschiedenis van de zelfdoding
Volgens Albert Camus is er maar één serieus filosofisch probleem: de zelfdoding. Van wie is je leven? laat met vele voorbeelden zien welke betekenis suïcide in de westerse cultuur heeft gekregen. Volgens Thomas Macho vond in de twintigste eeuw een belangrijke verschuiving plaats in hoe wij tegen zelfdoding aankijken. We hebben een andere stervenscultuur gekregen. Waar suïcide eerder vooral als uitdrukking van psychologische ziekte werd beschouwd, zien wij haar nu in toenemende mate in termen...

La Casa de Borgoña
la Casa del rey de España
La Corte y las Casas Reales resultaron fundamentales en la organización política de las Monarquías modernas. Sin duda, Borgoña resultó de especial relevancia en la gestación de dicho proceso, pues su Casa Ducal adquirió una perfección reconocida por el resto de monarquías del momento. Dicho servicio a la borgoñona llegó a la Monarquía Hispana a través de Felipe I, consiguiendo imponerse a las Casas menos desarrolladas de Aragón y Castilla y convirtiéndose en la Casa de una Monarquía...

The churches
Developments in church-state relationships in north-western Europe between 1780 and 1920 had a substantial impact on reformist ideas, projects and movements within the churches. Conversely, the dynamics of ecclesiastical reform prompted the state itself to react in various ways, through direct intervention or by adapting its policies and/or promulgating laws. To which extent did church and state mutually influence each other in matters concerning ecclesiastical reform? How and why did they do so?...

Kadoc Charity and social welfare
How churches in Northern Europe reinvented their role as providers of social relief. Charity is a word that fits well in the history of religion and churches, whereas the concept of social reform seems to belong more to the vocabulary of the modern welfare states. Christian charity found itself, during the long nineteenth century, within the maelstrom of social turmoil. In this context of social unrest, although charity managed to confirm its relevance, it was also subjected to fierce criticism,...

Neo-Latin commentaries and the management of knowledge in the late Middle Ages and the early modern period (1400-1700)
Profound study of one of the most important genres within Humanist scholarship. Between 1400 and 1700 the political, religious, intellectual, and even geographic landscape was profoundly changed by the Reformation, Humanism, the rise of empirical science, the invention of printing technology, and the discovery of the New World. The late medieval and early modern intellectuals felt an urgent need to respond to the changes they were involved in, and to come to a revision and re-authorisation of knowledge....

The Maritain factor
taking religion into interwar modernism
By studying the reception and perception of the French Catholic philosopher Jacques Maritain, this book argues that European modernist artists and intellectuals sought a primordial finality in Catholicism. The French poet, writer, and surrealist filmmaker Jean Cocteau converted under the influence of Maritain. For the painters Gino Severini, a pioneer of Futurism, and Otto Van Rees, one of the first Dadaists -both converts- Maritain played the role of spiritual counselor. And when the promoter of...
