Theologie, Science Et Censure Au Xiiie Siecle: Le Cas de Jean Peckham

Theologie, Science Et Censure Au Xiiie Siecle: Le Cas de Jean Peckham

Alain Boureau

Les Belles Lettres
1999
nidottu
Ce livre aurait pu s'intituler L'archeveque et les cadavres. De fait, on y trouve un cadavre qui saigne devant un meurtrier, des mauvais coups, des fureurs, de funestes destins. Mais tout, ici, passe par la doctrine: la violence affecte le discours et l'evenement central est constitue par la condamnation, en 1286, de theses universitaires, tenues a l'universite d'Oxford, portant essentiellement sur la nature du corps du Christ mort. Or il se trouve que l'auteur de cette condamnation, l'archeveque franciscain Jean Peckham avait ete, trois ans avant cette condamnation, au centre d'une affaire de denonciation miraculeuse et publique de ce que certains consideraient comme son injustice criminelle: les ossements de l'eveque Thomas de Cantiloupe, mort en exil, avaient saigne en traversant la province du persecuteur. Grace a une analyse minutieuse du texte de la censure et de ses divers contextes, l'auteur lance des propositions nouvelles sur les pratiques universitaires medievales, sur la fortune et l'infortune du thomisme, sur la dynamique des concepts et des disciplines scolastiques, sur les articulations entre mentalites communes et culture savante, entre spiritualite et savoir ainsi que sur l'emergence de la formalisation scientifique... Alain Boureau, directeur d'etudes a l'EHESS est medieviste. Parmi ses nombreux ouvrages, on compte La Papesse Jeanne (1988), Le Droit de cuissage. Histoire de la fabrication d'un mythe (1995). Aux Belles Lettres, ses dernieres publications sont La Religion de l'Etat. La construction de la Republique etatique dans le discours theologique de l'Occident medieval. 1250-1350 (2006), L'Empire du livre. Pour une histoire du savoir scolastique. 1200-1380 (2007) et De vagues individus. La condition humaine dans la pensee scolastique (2008).

Explanation and Power

Explanation and Power

Peckham Morse

UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA PRESS
1988
nidottu
Explanation and Power was first published in 1988. Minnesota Archive Editions uses digital technology to make long-unavailable books once again accessible, and are published unaltered from the original University of Minnesota Press editions. The meaning of any utterance or any sign is the response to that utterance or sign: this is the fundamental proposition behind Morse Peckham's Explanation and Power. Published in 1979 and now available in paperback for the first time, Explanation and Power grew out of Peckham's efforts, as a scholar of Victorian literature, to understand the nature of Romanticism. His search ultimately led back to—and built upon—the tradition of signs developed by the American Pragmatists. Since, in Peckham's view, meaning is not inherent in word or sign, only in response, human behavior itself must depend upon interaction, which in turn relies upon the stability of verbal and nonverbal signs. In the end, meaning can be stabilized only by explanation, and when explanation fails, by force. Peckham's semiotic account of human behavior, radical in its time, contends with the same issues that animate today's debates in critical theory — how culture is produced, how meaning is arrived at, the relation of knowledge to power and of society to its institutions. Readers across a wide range of disciplines, in the humanities and social sciences, will welcome its reappearance.

The Transforming Power of the Nuns

The Transforming Power of the Nuns

Mary Peckham Magray

Oxford University Press Inc
1998
sidottu
Mary Peckham Magray argues that the Irish Catholic cultural revolution in the nineteenth century was effected not only by male elites, as previous scholarship has claimed, but also by the most overlooked and underestimated women in Ireland: the nuns. Once thought to be merely passive servants of the male clerical hierarchy, women's religious orders were in fact at the very centre of the creation of a devout Catholic culture in Ireland. Often well-educated, articulate, and evangelical, nuns were much more social and ambitious than traditional stereotypical views have held. They used their wealth and their authority to effect changes in both the religious practices and daily activity of the larger Irish Catholic population, and by doing so, Magray argues, deserve a far larger place in the Irish historical record than they have previously been accorded. Magray's innovative work challenges some of the most widely-held assumptions of social history in nineteenth-century Ireland. It will be of interest to scholars and students of Irish history, religious history, women's studies, and sociology.

Architecture and its Imprint

Andrew Peckham

Routledge
2023

Architecture and its Imprint examines the relationship between a series of buildings by ‘modern’ and contemporary architects, and the books with which they have been associated, or in which they are published. The choice of the five individual studies is not intended to establish a sense of historical development, but rather to investigate the boundaries between architecture and the form of its publication, given that our first experience of buildings is often their representation in the media rather than direct experience of visiting, use or inhabitation. Selected at intervals since the inception of ‘modern architecture’ and including its incorporation within developments of the recent past, the studies reflect on the relationship between building and publication to address: How particular publications, identified with an architect’s promotion of their work, conditions its subsequent (historical) interpretation The manner in which a recurrent conceptualization of a building (albeit published in different media) ingrains a critical consensus at odds with its original reception The notion of ‘cataloguing’ architecture as a design procedure, where a collector’s concern for archiving informs the evolution of the design of an architect’s library and the publication of a parallel ‘visual’ treatise The interaction between polemic and its divergent visualization in itinerant publications ‘framing’ the development of a strategy for an iconic city library How the publication of an architect’s oeuvre fabricates a sense of continuity at odds with a shifting practice of designThe five studies examine how publications support an architect’s (preferred or received) image and status, and question the veracity of their consequent representation of individual buildings. The book is a must for architects, and students of architecture, interested in the presentation and publicity of their own work.
