Hardcover. Condizione: As New. No Jacket. 1st Edition. 532 pages, 6.7 x 1.5 x 9.5 inches. Tracing the history of the doctrines on the nature of faith is an immense endeavour. What the Middle Ages and the Renaissance felt on this subject resulted in a huge literary production, involving an extensive number of authors and taking a variety of themes into account. Compared to this vast literature, the contributions constituting the present volume have a limited and defined scope: they aim to analyse 12th- to 16th-century doctrines specifically concerned with faith as a theological virtue. In this perspective, a number of recurrent problems of exegetical, theological, pastoral, or political nature have been identified. Among the most significant challenges faced by medieval and Renaissance authors, one can notice the attempt to hold together two key-features defining faith: on the one hand, the gnoseological "weakness" of faith, which is considered an assent, maybe a sort of obscure understanding, yet not a sight, either of God or of anything else; on the other hand, the absolute "certitude" and "truth" of faith, which were the matter of no controversy. These features gave rise to a crucial gnoseological problem, that is to say, how a person adhering to the allegedly true and undeniable faith can really know that his/her faith is nothing but a mere opinion. Another exemplary case concerns the reasoning on faith's political and ecclesiological dimension. In this respect, faith is not seen primarily as an intellectual attitude, but rather as a sort of theological-anthropological prerequisite, generating, when present, a person's belonging (or, when absent, a person's not belonging) to the political community of believers. Precisely the political dimension of faith makes the problem of infidelitas so immediate and dramatic for many medieval and Renaissance authors, and elicits the will to reduce the extent of infidelitas and the number of infideles thanks to a widespread work of predication, persuasion and repression. Facing problems like the ones now recalled, medieval and Renaissance authors, in a supreme effort to solve them, begot the kaleidoscopic variety of differing theories that is the subject of the present publication and that - paradoxically as it may seem - paved the way for medieval, Renaissance and modern discourses on relativism and toleration. The volume contains contributions by Paolo Bettiolo, Magdalena Bieniak, Christopher Burger, Charles M.A. Caspers, Mark J. Clark, Marcia L. Colish, Carlo Delcorno, William Duba, Michael Embach, Matthew Gaetano, Christophe Grellard, Fortunato Iozelli, Tiziano Lorenzin, Fabrizio Mandreoli, Thomas Marschler, Constant J.

Brossura. Condizione: new. A cura di Canzian D. e Simonetti R. Roma, 2012; br., pp. 260, ill. b/n, cm 17x24. (Interadria. 16). Tra Padova, Verona, Vicenza e Treviso si distende oggi una grande pianura segnata da un reticolo fittissimo di insediamenti. Nel Medioevo, però, accanto alle città e a molti nascenti villaggi, grandi spazi erano occupati da paludi, boschi, fiumi e fossi. Gli uomini dell'epoca intervennero vigorosamente in quell'ambiente, nel tentativo non solo di guadagnare spazio alle colture, ma anche di ordinare il territorio per agevolare le comunicazioni e gli scambi, difendersi dagli eventi catastrofici, sfruttare meglio le risorse che l'incolto forniva in abbondanza, rimarcare i caratteri di un dominio politico. Non sempre ci riuscirono, e qualche volta i rimedi furono peggiori dei mali. Le trasformazioni del paesaggio, poi, non furono irreversibili e talvolta l'acqua e i boschi ripresero le terre faticosamente conquistate. Ma le tracce di quell'azione restano in parte riconoscibili anche ai giorni nostri, per quanto cancellate dagli stravolgimenti urbanistici degli ultimi decenni. I saggi qui raccolti ricostruiscono a campione quella vicenda, che è parte di un fenomeno che riguarda tutta l'Europa, e che si presta ad essere studiato pure sotto il profilo della storia culturale, dell'antropologia, delle scienze. Per questo si troveranno qui anche contributi che esulano dai confini della storia medievale veneta, per fornire di questo tema complesso una visione più sfaccettata. Libro.…
