Saccargia
The book provides a detailed description of the architectural structure and the different phases of construction of the monastic complex. Particular attention is devoted to the pictorial cycle, to the architectural sculptures of the porch, and of those randomly placed inside the church, especially to the binate capitals from the cloister. Finally, a stylistic and iconographic reading of the Retablos, formerly belonging to the Basilica, and now preserved at CE. DO. C. Of Codrongianos, complete the work.
Bosa medievale
Il libro fornisce una rilettura aggiornata sulla fortificazione della città di Bosa e sulla chiesa castellana, cappella palatina dei giudici d’Arborea, sotto il profilo architettonico e artistico. Particolare attenzione e rilievo sono stati posti sulla presenza all’interno del sacro edificio di un ciclo pressoché interamente conservato, esempio unico in Sardegna, di affreschi trecenteschi sui temi pregnanti della spiritualità francescana.

Madri, madri mancate, quasi madri
Un affresco della multiforme condizione femminile nel Medioevo che testimonia la capacità di tante donne di reinventare il loro destino. Il libro ricostruisce con sapienti cenni le singole vicende di sei donne che vivono nel lungo arco del Medioevo e del contesto in cui si muovono. Eliana Di Caro, "Domenica – Il Sole 24 Ore" Le donne di oggi, è storia nota, devono conciliare tra mille sensi di colpa carriera e maternità. E molto spesso si trovano a far parte di famiglie allargate, con figli nati da genitori diversi che vivono sotto lo stesso tetto. Ma forse potranno sentirsi sollevate nel sapere che condividono il problema con dame, regine, mistiche e intellettuali del Medioevo. Lo racconta Maria Giuseppina Muzzarelli in questo libro. Paola Naldi, "la Repubblica" Sei storie esemplari di donne del Medioevo e del loro rapporto con la maternità. Pagina dopo pagina, si rovescia ciò che crediamo di sapere sulle donne del passato e scopriamo figure che vanno ben al di là delle nostre (spesso ristrette) concezioni del Medioevo.
The Early Middle Ages
Examine the creative, profound dialogue between medieval women and biblical traditions The latest volume in the Bible and Women series examines the relationship between women and the Bible’s reception during the early Middle Ages (500–1100 CE) in both the Greek East and the Latin West. Essays focus on interactions between women and the Bible through biblical precepts on women and for women, biblical women as the subjects of action or objects of discussion, and writings by women that refer to the Bible as a moral authority. The women discussed in the volume range from the well-known—including the nuns Kassia in Byzantium and Hrosvita in the West; the aristocrat Dhuoda, author of a moral...
Medioevo al femminile

The Turn to Transcendence
“Phenomenal . . . A must read for us who desire to topple the dictatorship of relativism and culture of death and replace it with the only alternative” (The Imaginative Conservative). Especially concerned with the public nature of religion, historian Glenn W. Olsen—author of Christian Marriage: A Historical Study and On the Road to Emmaus: The Catholic Dialogue with American and Modernity—sets forth an exhaustively researched and persuasive account of how religion has been reshaped in the modern period. The Turn to Transcendence traces both the loss of transcendence and attempts to recover it while making its own proposals. Neither reactionary nor modernist, it questions how—under ...
The Song of Songs in the Early Middle Ages
In The Song of Songs in the Early Middle Ages, Hannah W. Matis examines how the Song of Songs, the collection of Hebrew love poetry, was understood in the Latin West as an allegory of Christ and the church. This reading of the biblical text was passed down via the patristic tradition, established by the Venerable Bede, and promoted by the chief architects of the Carolingian reform. Throughout the ninth century, the Song of Songs became a text that Carolingian churchmen used to think about the nature of Christ and to conceptualize their own roles and duties within the church. This study examines the many different ways that the Song of Songs was read within its early medieval historical context.
