Rethinking Catholicism in Renaissance Spain
Rethinking Catholicism in Renaissance Spain claims that theology and canon law were decisive for shaping ideas, debates, and decisions about key political and religious problems in Renaissance Spain. This book studies Catholic thought during the Spanish Renaissance, with the various contributors specifically exploring the ecclesiology and heresiology of the period. Today, these two subjects are considered to be strictly branches of theology, but at the time, they were also dealt with in the field of canon law. Both ecclesiology, which studied the internal structure of the Church, and heresiology, which identified theological errors, played an important role in shaping ideas, debates, and dec...

A Companion to Early Modern Spanish Imperial Political and Social Thought
This Companion aims to give an up-to-date overview of the historical context and the conceptual framework of Spanish imperial expansion during the early modern period, mostly during the 16th century. It intends to offer a nuanced and balanced account of the complexities of this historically controversial period analyzing first its historical underpinnings, then shedding light on the normative language behind imperial theorizing and finally discussing issues that arose with the experience of the conquest of American polities, such as colonialism, slavery or utopia. The aim of this volume is to uncover the structural and normative elements of the theological, legal and philosophical arguments about Spanish imperial ambitions in the early modern period. Contributors are Manuel Herrero Sánchez, José Luis Egío, Christiane Birr, Miguel Anxo Pena González, Tamar Herzog, Merio Scattola, Virpi Mäkinen, Wim Decock, Christian Schäfer, Francisco Castilla Urbano, Daniel Schwartz, Felipe Castañeda, José Luis Ramos Gorostiza, Luis Perdices de Blas, Beatriz Fernández Herrero.

Remembering Sepharad
Written to accompany an exhibition held at the Washington National Cathedral in 2003 (and in a more extensive version in Toledo, Spain previously), this catalogue provides a broad introduction to the lives of Jews in medieval Spain ("Sepharad" is the Hebrew word for Spain). Among the topics are aspects of daily life; the role of Jews in the arts and sciences; the political realities of life for Jews, Muslims, and Christians; a history of the Church's anti-Jewish policies, which result in the expulsion of the Jews in 1492; and the role of the Spanish Inquisition. All the chapters are well illustrated with good quality color plates. Distributed in North America by the U. of Washington Press for the State Corporation for Spanish Cultural Action Abroad.
The School of Salamanca in the Affairs of the Indies
The School of Salamanca in the Affairs of the Indies explores the significance of Salamancans, such as Vitoria and Soto, and related thinkers, such as Las Casas and Sepúlveda, in the formation of the early modern political order. It also analyses early modern understandings of political order, with a focus both on the decline of the medieval universal world through the independence and secularization of political community and the establishment of continuous and imbalanced relations between various European and non-European political communities. Through its investigation, this book highlights how Salamancans and related thinkers clearly distinguished their understandings of political order...

La grammaire philosophique du Pseudo-Robert Grosseteste (Pierre de Limoges, Pierre d’Auvergne ?). Présentation, édition et traduction des Communia parisiens et salmantins
Les Communia super totam gramaticam, un commentaire questionné inédit sur l’ensemble des Institutions grammaticales de Priscien (VIe siècle) et une partie du livre III de l’Ars maior de Donat (IVe siècle), appartiennent à ce paradigme de la grammaire philosophique qui est apparu en Europe à la fin du XIIe siècle et qui, à la faveur de la découverte du tout Aristote, fleurit au long du XIIIe siècle. Cette collection de questions est contenue – en deux rédactions bien distinctes – dans les manuscrits 16617 du fonds latin de la BnF où elle côtoie des Communia sur la Vieille logique et 1986 de la BHG de l’Université de Salamanque où elle est intégrée dans une vaste som...
Unamuno y Béjar
Hacia el año 1900, cuando Miguel de Unamuno comenzó a visitar la comarca de Béjar, era un joven catedrático de Griego de la Universidad de Salamanca que había nacido en Bilbao (1864) y sacado la plaza de profesor unos pocos años antes. En ese año fue nombrado rector por primera vez ―lo sería otras dos más―, lo que hizo que por motivos profesionales incrementara sus visitas, además de las privadas, que no cesaron hasta el final de su vida.Ya era para entonces un personaje público preocupado por todo lo político, lo social, lo educativo y lo literario, que escribía de forma habitual en los periódicos y revistas del momento y comenzaba a tener una obra literaria, cuya voz era ...
