Medical Saints
This book is an exploration of illness and healing experiences in contemporary society through the veneration of saints: primarily the twin doctors Saints Cosmas and Damian. It also follows the author's personal journey from her role as a hematologist who inadvertently served as an expert witness in a miracle to her research as a historian on the origins, meaning and functions of saints. Sources include interviews with devotees in both North America and Europe. Cosmas and Damian were martyred around the year 300 A.D. in what is now Syria. Called the "Anargyroi" (without silver) because they charged no fees, they became patrons of medicine, surgery, and pharmacy as their cult spread widely ac...
Aspasius
This book comprises essays on the nature of Aspasius’ commentary, his interpretation of Aristotle, and his own place in the history of thought. The contributions are in English or Italian. Aspasius’ commentary on the Nicomachean Ethics is the earliest ancient commentary on Aristotle of which extensive parts survive in their original form. It is important both for the history of commentary as a genre and for the history of philosophical thought in the first two centuries A.D.; it is also still valuable as what its author intended it to be, an aid in interpreting the Ethics. All three aspects are explored by the essays. The book is not formally a commentary on Aspasius’ commentary; but between them the essays consider the interpretation of numerous problematic or significant passages. Full indices will enable readers quickly to locate discussion of particular parts of Aspasius’ work. This volume of essays will form a natural complement to the first ever translation of Aspasius’ commentary into any modern language, currently in preparation by Paul Mercken.
"Let's make an opera!"
Keine Gattung der Frühen Moderne ist so stark autoreflexiv ausgerichtet wie die Oper. Begleitet von intensiver theoretischer Reflexion, bringen die frühesten Opern nicht nur den Orpheus-Mythos auf die Bühne, sondern befragen sich in ihm nach der Macht des gleichzeitig gesungenen und handelnden Wortes im ,Recitar cantando' und nach der eigenen Genealogie in der Wiederbelebung einer (produktiv missverstandenen) Antike. Die Beiträge des Bandes reflektieren diachron und über die italienische Librettistik hinaus unterschiedliche Typen und Funktionen von autoreflexiven Denkbewegungen der Oper vom späten 16. bis zum 20. Jahrhundert. Sie untersuchen autoreflexive Anteile und Spiel-im-Spiel-Phänomene in der Librettistik bis hin zu Libretti und Opern, die sich satirisch-performativ mit der Oper (als Institution, als Musikdrama etc.) beschäftigen. Der Band möchte so wichtige Fixpunkte der Beschäftigung der Oper mit sich selbst bestimmen.

The Digital (R)Evolution of Legal Discourse
The primary goal of this book is to reach a better understanding of how the digital revolution has affected language and discourse practices in the field of law. It also explores the complex nature of the techniques and discursive strategies which emerge in the relationship between the different stakeholders (including non-experts) thanks to technological advances. By adopting a discourse analytical perspective which combines both qualitative and quantitative approaches, the book explores the hybridity of new genres and communicative processes. It provides an interdisciplinary platform for researchers, practitioners, and educators to present the most recent innovations, trends, and concerns,...

The world in a sea
The Mediterranean, both a sea and a theatre, has served throughout history as a fundamental crossroads for the political-religious dynamics and international tensions that characterize the various worlds, east and west, south and north, that meet in this basin. Starting from these premises, the present work examines - within a chronological span that goes from the conclusion of the Second World War to the end of Pius XII’s pontificate - the contribution offered by the Holy See and by Catholics from different national contexts in deciphering the role of the Mediterranean Sea within the wider global context. As such, it constitutes a reflection on this geographical space with its peculiar cultural, economic, political, and religious realities by highlighting the role played by the Mediterranean in the elaboration of visions and projects of civilization. This work is the fruit of a wider research programme called Occidentes - Horizons and projects of civilization in the Church of Pius XII. It brings together the work of seven historians from different European Universities.
