Los santos y su culto, o la devoción que generaron en los siglos medievales en los reinos peninsulares, se ha convertido en objetivo preferente de los hispanistas que, como sucede en el contexto de otras escuelas historiográficas, se acercan al tema desde campos muy diversos: la liturgia, la historia del arte, la literatura, lo que se entiende como “historia de las mentalidades”, etc. Esta investigación es una muestra de este carácter innovador y multidisciplinar.

Gender and Exemplarity in Medieval and Early Modern Spain gathers a series of studies on the interplay between gender, sanctity and exemplarity in regard to literary production in the Iberian peninsula. The first section examines how women were con¬strued as saintly examples through narratives, mostly composed by male writers; the second focuses on the use made of exemplary life-accounts by women writers in order to fashion their own social identity and their role as authors. The volume includes studies on relevant models (Mary Magdalen, Virgin Mary, living saints), means of transmission, sponsorship and agency (reading circles, print, patronage), and female writers (Leonor López de Córdoba, Isabel de Villena, Teresa of Ávila) involved in creating textual exemplars for women. Contributors are: Pablo Acosta-García, Andrew M. Beresford, Jimena Gamba Corradine, Ryan D. Giles, María Morrás, Lesley K. Twomey, Roa Vidal Doval, and Christopher van Ginhoven Rey.

Medieval tombs often depict husband and wife lying side-by-side: demonstrating, as in the words of Philip Larkin's poem An Arundel Tomb, their "stone fidelity". This is the first book to address the phenomenon of the "double tomb", drawing the rich history of tomb sculpture into dialogue with discourses of power, marriage, gender and emotion, and placing them in the context of ecclesastical material culture of the time more broadly. It offers new interpretations of some of the most famous medieval monuments, such as those found in Westminster Abbey and Canterbury Cathedral, as well as drawing attention to a host of lesser-known memorials from throughout Europe. In turn, these monuments provide a vantage point from which to reconsider the culture of medieval marriage, from wedding rings and dresses, to the sacramental symbolism of matrimony, and embodied ritual practices. Whilst it is tempting to read these sculptures as straightforward expressions of romantic feeling, the author argues that a closer look reveals the artifice behind the emotion: the artistic, religious, political and legal agenda underlying the rhetoric of married love.

The extraordinary growth and development of the cult of St Thomas Becket is investigated here, with a particular focus on its material culture. Thomas Becket - the archbishop of Canterbury cut down in his own cathedral just after Christmas 1170 - stands amongst the most renowned royal ministers, churchmen, and saints of the Middle Ages. He inspired the work of medieval writers and artists, and remains a compelling subject for historians today. Yet many of the political, religious, and cultural repercussions of his murder and subsequent canonisation remain to be explored in detail. This book examines the development of the cult and the impact of the legacy of Saint Thomas within the Plantagenet orbit of the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries - the "Empire" assembled by King Henry II, defended by his son King Richard the Lionheart, and lost by King John. Traditional textual and archival sources, such as miracle collections, charters, and royal and papal letters, are used in conjunction with the material culture inspired by the cult, toemphasise the wide-ranging impact of the murder and of the cult's emergence in the century following the martyrdom. From the archiepiscopal church at Canterbury, to writers and religious houses across the Plantagenet lands, to thecourts of Henry II, his children, and the bishops of the Angevin world, individuals and communities adapted and responded to one of the most extraordinary religious phenomena of the age. Dr Paul Webster is currently Lecturer in Medieval History and Project Manager of the Exploring the Past adult learners progression pathway at Cardiff University; Dr Marie-Pierre Gelin is a Teaching Fellow in the History Department at University College London.

"The women kissed by fire" is a thriller that combines historical fiction and magical realism. The main characters of the novel are women so significant that they lead us to think History needs to be written under a more realistic prism: the feminine. SYNOPSIS: The story begins in the 7th century B.C. in the demo of Hēmeroskopeion. An unsettling discovery is made there which leads the newly settled Greek colonists to consider abandoning those lands. However, their geographical location brings great commercial value so they are forced to resort to their deities to protect themselves from the Evil that dwells there. In 2016 an item is stolen from La Alcudia archaeological site. Marcus follows the tracks of the stolen piece to Mer, who is astonishingly like his ex-girlfriend. Together, they begin to investigate the origins of the carved stone tablet. Marcus asks Rupe, a psychiatrist friend who specialises in esoterical topics, for help and the three embark on an adventure that will cross twenty-eight centuries. Like a tapestry woven before our eyes, we observe the combinations of cultures that interweave and give Alicante its incomparable historical heritage. The reader will discover the mystery surrounding the Triangular Tower at La Mola Castle and the Shrine of Mary Magdalene in Novelda. They will experience the battle fought at Santa Bárbara Castle when James II, King of Aragón, seized the keys to the fortress from the frozen hands of Sir Nicolás Peris, who remained loyal to the King of Castile. They will discover the reasons for the Greek inheritance in the Lady of Elche, and even a possible explanation of who the enigmatic stone bust could represent. Book Reader review: Aspasia of Miletus (wife of Pericles of Athens), Mary Magdalene and Queen Blanca of Anjou (of the Crown of Aragón). What could they have had in common? What jewel could they have shared? Protective earrings? The same hair colour? A powerful magical elixir of love and

Scholars did not consider it necessary to grant Spain the honour of being the creative country of the game of draughts and of the new modality in the chess game with the new dama. Both the alquerque-3 as the alquerque-9 games were known in Roman times. Completely different is the situation for the alquerque-12 game. It is said that the alquerque has its origin in Egypt. Perhaps this is the case for the alquerque-3 and alquerque-9 games, but never for alquerque-12 game. Some authors claim that the alquerque-12 game is a Greek or Roman game, but the great expert of these games, Dr. Ulrich Schadler, discards it. This book is the first proof that the alquerque-12 game was not popular at all in France, but much more in Spain, where the new chess game and draughts game were invented.

The decades between ca 1280 and ca 1380 were marked by a striking affinity to the Mendicant orders on the part of many female members of royal and princely courts. And yet, "Queens, Princesses and Mendicants" is both an innovative and comparatively neglected juxtaposition in medieval studies, for historical research has generally tended to neglect the relationship between Mendicants and aristocratic women. This volume unites twelve articles written by experts from seven European countries. The contributions cover a wide array of medieval European kingdoms in order to facilitate direct comparisons. Was affinity towards the Mendicants a prevalent phenomenon in the late Middle Ages? Can one even term "philomendicantism" a late medieval European movement? The collection of essays provides answers to these and other questions within the field of gender, religious and cultural history.
