Repertorium edierter Texte des Mittelalters aus dem Bereich der Philosophie und angrenzender Gebiete
Das hier in neuer Auflage vorgelegte Repertorium soll dazu dienen, zwei Grundproblemen der mediävistischen Forschung zu beheben: Diese Epoche des Denkens war von gewaltiger Produktivität gekennzeichnet, deren Überlieferung in vielfältiger Weise mit Schwierigkeiten behaftet ist. Die Überlieferung ist nicht nur in hohen Maße eine handschriftliche, sondern auch äußerst lückenhaft und von vielen Wissensverlusten, etwa bezüglich der Autorschaft, betroffen. Da seit dem 19. Jahrhundert viele der Texte nur in Auszügen ediert worden sind, finden sich Teiltexte aus demselben Werk oft an vielen Orten. Dieser Unübersichtlichkeit versucht das Repertorium Abhilfe zu schaffen.

A Cosmos of Desire
A groundbreaking illumination of the creation and reception of extant erotic poetry written in Latin during the Middle Ages
Hugh of Amiens and the Twelfth-Century Renaissance
Hugh of Amiens (c. 1085-1164) was an important intellectual figure in the twelfth century. During a long life he served as a cleric, Cluniac monk, abbot, and archbishop of Rouen. He wrote a number of works including poems, biblical exegesis, anti-heretical polemics, and most importantly one of the earliest collections of systematic theology, his Dialogues. This book examines all of Hugh's writings to uncover a better understanding not only of this individual, but also of the twelfth-century as a whole, especially the theological preoccupations of the period, including the development of systematic theology and views on the differences of the monastic and clerical ways of life.
Latinitas Perennis
This volume unites, for the first time, contributions from the three fields of Latin literature: Classical, Medieval and Neo-Latin, reflecting on its continuity. It's particular interest for the studies of European literary history lies in the interactions between Latin and the national literatures.
Epistolae duorum amantium: Parodien – auf ein berühmtes Liebespaar?
The letters which are analyzed in this study have been considered the authentic letters of the famous medieval philosopher Abelard and his beloved Heloise. A close reading comes to a surprising result: these letters are parodic, and open up the famous lovers to ridicule.
Latinitas Perennis. Volume I: The Continuity of Latin Literature
This volume deals with the question of the continuity of Latin literature throughout its history. For the first time, contributions are brought together from each of the three fields within the studies of Latin literature: Classical, Medieval and Neo-Latin, reflecting on problems such as the transmission of the Latin heritage, the creation and perpetuation of a classical normativeness and the reactions against it. The book is divided into three parts, corresponding to the theoretical principle of organic development: “Beginnings?”, “Perfections?”, “Transitions?”, thus questioning the validity of a similar evolutionistic model. Because of the numerous points of contact between Latin and the national literatures, the volume is of particular relevance for the studies of the European literary history. Contributors include: Davide Canfora, Perrine Galand-Hallyn, Sander Goldberg, Thomas Haye, Marc van der Poel, Michael Roberts, Francesco Stella, Wim Verbaal, Gregor Vogt-Spira, and Jan Ziolkowski.
