A selection from the works of the Catalan Franciscan, Francesc Eiximenis. Francesc Eiximenis is an outstanding figure in the ranks of the mendicant orders who, in the late Middle Ages, strove to educate the lower echelons of society. Born in Gerona, around 1330, probably to a comfortable middle-class family, Eiximenis entered the Franciscan order at a very early age, studied in Oxford, and probably also in Paris, and obtained the degree of master of theology in Toulouse. Later he combined teaching with the composing of his works. Among these stands out the monumental and widely known Lo Crestià (The Christian), in which Eiximenis aimed to include all contemporary university knowledge, adapted for a lay public whose basic level of instruction was far below that of clerics. The same didactic purpose is seen in the Libro de los ángeles (Book of the Angels), the Libro de las mujeres (Book of the Women) and the Vita Christi. Eiximenis, by then bishop of Elna, died in 1409. Among the many themes that recur in his extensive literary production, this anthology concentrates on his ideas on the transmission of knowledge, on education and on culture. The introduction and selection of texts is by David Guixeras and Xavier Renedo. ROBERT D. HUGHES is a translator and researcher with particular expertise in the fields of fine art, the history of ideas and Catalan culture. Published in association with Editorial Barcino

In Chariots of Ladies, Núria Silleras-Fernández traces the development of devotion and female piety among the Iberian aristocracy from the late Middle Ages into the Golden Age, and from Catalonia to the rest of Iberia and Europe via the rise of the Franciscan Observant movement. A program of piety and morality devised by Francesc Eiximenis, a Franciscan theologian, royal counselor, and writer in Catalonia in the 1390s, came to characterize the feminine ideal in the highest circles of the Iberian aristocracy in the era of the Empire. As Eiximenis’s work was adapted and translated into Castilian over the century and a half that followed, it became a model of devotion and conduct for queens and princesses, including Isabel the Catholic and her descendants, who ruled over Portugal and the Spanish Empire of the Hapsburgs. Silleras-Fernández uses archival documentation, letters, manuscripts, incunabula, and a wide range of published material to clarify how Eiximenis’s ideas on gender and devotion were read by Countess Sanxa Ximenis d’Arenós and Queen Maria de Luna of Aragon and how they were then changed by his adaptors and translators in Castile for new readers (including Isabel the Catholic and Juana the Mad), and in sixteenth-century Portugal for new patronesses (Juana’s daughter, Catalina of Habsburg, and Catalina’s daughter, Maria Manuela, first wife of Philip II). Chariots of Ladies casts light on a neglected dimension of encounter and exchange in Iberia from the late fourteenth to the mid-sixteenth centuries.

La Societat Catalana d’Estudis Jurídics vol retre homenatge i recordar la figura i l’obra del català fra Francesc Eiximenis (Girona, 1330 – Perpinyà, 1409). Il·lustre franciscà, format a Cambridge, Oxford, París i Tolosa, fou influït especialment pels pensadors del seu orde, Guillem d’Ockham i el beat Joan Duns Escot. Després d’una estada a la cort papal d’Avinyó, visità Roma, Colònia i la Toscana (el convent franciscà d’Alvèrnia, on sant Francesc va rebre els estigmes), fins que el 1383 s’instal·là a València. Poc abans de la seva mort, el 1408, el papa Benet XIII el convocà al Concili de Perpinyà i el nomenà patriarca de Jerusalem i bisbe d’Elna. El nostre autor mantingué relacions molt estretes amb la Corona d’Aragó i els seus titulars, així com amb les ciutats de Barcelona i València. En aquesta capital va residir i va desenvolupar bona part de la seva obra. És autor d’una ingent producció literària, teològica, filosòfica i sobre el bon govern de la cosa pública. Entre les seves obres tal vegada destaquen el seu Tractat de la Usura, Lo Crestià (un projecte de Summa theologica), el Regiment de la cosa pública (amb consells per als jurats de València), el Llibre dels àngels (un tractat d’angelologia amb reflexions polítiques), el Llibre de les dones (sobre la formació de la dona i la moral pública), la Vida de Jesucrist, l’Scala Dei, el Tractat de Contemplació i un llarg etcètera. Aquest volum és, doncs, un homenatge a la immensa i inabastable figura d’Eiximenis; és una aportació al coneixement de la seva obra amb una visió actual i des de diverses perspectives. La seva producció tingué una difusió extraordinària i ben segur que cal continuar el seu estudi, d’una actualitat notable. Agraïm el suport rebut per a aquesta edició de l’Institut de Llengua i Cultura Catalanes de la Universitat de Girona i de la Diputació de Barcelona.

Forma parte esta obra de un intento de dar a conocer la obra de Francesc Eiximenis, autor, en los años finales del siglo XIV, de Lo Crestià, catecismo y al mismo tiempo enciclopedia del saber de su época. La ciudad y el príncipe son estudiados con todo detalle en el volumen doce (Dotzè del Crestià) en el que se recoge cuanto puede saberse sobre el origen de las ciudades, las razones de su creación y las clases de ciudad, entendida ésta como “congregación de mutuo acuerdo de muchas personas que participan y viven juntas, orientada hacia la vida virtuosa y que ha de bastarse a sí misma”..En la segunda parte de este volumen, explica Eiximenis el origen y la situación del regimiento o poder de dirección, para concluir que lo mejor para todos es tener al frente de la comunidad a un noble y buen rey con autoridad y control de la justicia, dispuesto a trabajar por el honor y gloria de Dios, capaz de hacer que los súbditos vivan en caridad y amor y preparado para guardar la paz como bien supremo.

In antiquity and the Middle Ages, memory was a craft, and certain actions and tools were thought to be necessary for its creation and recollection. Until now, however, many of the most important visual and textual sources on the topic have remained untranslated or otherwise difficult to consult. Mary Carruthers and Jan M. Ziolkowski bring together the texts and visual images from the twelfth through the fifteenth centuries that are central to an understanding of memory and memory technique. These sources are now made available for a wider audience of students of medieval and early modern history and culture and readers with an interest in memory, mnemonics, and the synergy of text and image. The art of memory was most importantly associated in the Middle Ages with composition, and those who practiced the craft used it to make new prayers, sermons, pictures, and music. The mixing of visual and verbal media was commonplace throughout medieval cultures: pictures contained visual puns, words were often verbal paintings, and both were used equally as tools for making thoughts. The ability to create pictures in one's own mind was essential to medieval cognitive technique and imagination, and the intensely pictorial and affective qualities of medieval art and literature were generative, creative devices in themselves.

Forma parte esta obra de un intento de dar a conocer la obra de Francesc Eiximenis, autor a finales del siglo XIV de Lo Crestià, catecismo y al mismo tiempo enciclopedia del saber de la época. De la obra original proyectada en trece volúmenes nunca terminados, surgieron textos como el Llibre de les Dones, su obra más conocida en la Edad Media, traducida al castellano en 1542 con el título de Carro de las Donas del que analizo las semejanzas y diferencias con la obra original y con las páginas incluidas en Lo Crestià sobre las mujeres..Dios ha ordenado y creado la ciudad para el disfrute del hombre y éste ha de procurar, entre otras cosas, garantizar su defensa, hecho que permite a Eiximenis elaborar un tratado de la caballería medieval, poco utilizado hasta ahora
