During Santa Rita de Cassia s life, her body and desires never belonged to her since she wished to be a nun but her parents obliged her to get married. Once married, she subjected to her husband because of her children. As a widow, she preferred to see her own children dead than see them seek revenge. She committed herself to a religious life demonstrating clearly that, tormented by flesh desire, needed to fight against the devil that presented himself as a desired man. The desire of her existence was denied by her parents, her husband, her family and in the Coventry, where her toughest struggle happened, her search to become a acceptable woman for God. This research is committed to understanding a phenomenon that happens in the countryside of Minas Gerais in a city called Cassia. In this city there are people devoted to the saint, mostly females, and all of them live a life that is a sequence of facts related to the history of Santa Rita de Cassia: a life of acceptance and subjection to the fatality of the Holy. Their main reason of existence is the belief and the miracles, elements that facilitate both the acceptance and the subjection of the life they have. / O presente trabalho busca compreender como a identidade da mulher moderna foi sendo construída e apropriada socialmente pela religião medieval, a partir da história de Santa Rita de Cássia. Em sua trajetória de vida, seu corpo e seu desejo nunca lhe pertenceram, uma vez que, desejando entrar para a vida religiosa, seus pais optaram por lhe darem em casamento. Casada, se sujeitou aos caprichos de seu marido por causa dos filhos. Viúva, não conseguiu conter o ímpeto de vingança que brotava no coração dos filhos, preferindo vê-los mortos a serem vingadores. Abraçou a vida religiosa numa clara demonstração que, atormentada pelo desejo, precisava lutar contra o demônio que se apresentava na forma de um homem a ser desejado. O desejo de sua existência lhe foi negado pelos pais, pelo marido, pela família e na clausura pois, ali travou uma de suas lutas mais ferrenhas, numa busca evidente de ser o objeto de desejo do seu Deus. Sem tal compreensão não seria possível mergulhar numa cidade do interior de Minas Gerais, Cássia, no sudoeste mineiro, para compreender o fenômeno sobre o qual a pesquisa se detém. Nesta cidade há alguns personagens masculinos e, em sua grande maioria, personagens femininas, sendo todos devotos de Santa Rita. Todos estes trazem inscritas em sua trajetória de vida uma seqüência de fatos e ocorrências tal qual o descrito naquela história medieval: uma vida de aceitação e sujeição à fatalidade do divino. O existir é calcado na crença e no milagre, elementos que atenuam essa sujeição e facilitam sua aceitação.

Ce travail de thèse interroge la place de la création artistique dans la transmission secrète des savoirs en cours dans les milieux des acteurs de nô au Japon du XIVe au XVe siècle. Notre analyse porte sur les écrits du dramaturge Konparu Zenchiku (1405-1470?), disciple et gendre du fondateur du nô d’apparition Zeami (1363-1443). À partir d’une analyse comparée de deux corpus de textes complémentaires – traités théoriques et canevas de nô – nous mettons en évidence la rivalité et le processus d’émulation qui s’opèrent dans l’œuvre de Zenchiku à partir du socle de références que constituent les écrits de son maître. Nous mettons ainsi en lumière le rôle majeur que joua Zenchiku dans le développement de la pensée esthétique de Zeami qui se traduit sur scène par une revalorisation du rôle cathartique de la représentation esthétique des passions dans le nô. / This thesis investigates the place of artistic creation in the secret transmission of knowledge among noh actors in Japan from the 14th to the late 15th century. Our analysis is based upon the writings of the playwright Konparu Zenchiku (1405-1470?), disciple and son-in-law of Zeami (1363-1443). Based on a comparative analysis of two corpuses of complementary texts - theoretical treatises and noh pays - we highlight the emulation and rewriting process of the knowledge inherited from his master that takes place in Zenchiku's work. In this way, our work exposes Zenchiku's major role in the development of Zeami's aesthetic thought, which is reflected on stage by a revaluation of the catharsis of passion and his aesthetic representation on stage.

This thesis compares the health and quality of life between the medieval urban environment of Visby and the rural monastic population of Roma monastery through the examination of osteological remains. For this comparison the bones of two graves of two assumed monks from Roma Monastery have been examined and are compared to previously written osteological reports of material of St. Clemen’s graves. In total five individuals from St. Clemens of two different authors have been used for this thesis. The material from Roma has been examined after sex, age, height, pathological changes, and activity markers. The finds of the study suggests the monks performed heavy manual labour and had worse health than compared to the inhabitants of Visby. / Denna uppsats undersöker och jämför hälsan och livskvalitén hos den medeltida urbana befolkningen i Visby gentemot den rurala klosterbefolkningen från Roma kloster genom skeletala kvarlevor. För jämförelsen har benen från två gravar av två antagna munkar från Roma kloster jämförts med tidigare publicerade osteologiska rapporter av material från S:t Clemens gravar. Totalt fem individer från S:t Clemens av två olika författare har använts för denna uppsats. Materialet från Roma har undersökts efter kön- och åldersbedömning, kroppslängdberäkning, patologiska förändringar och aktivitetsspår. Resultatet av undersökningen visar att munkarna utförde hårt arbete och hade en sämre hälsa än Visbys invånare.

Throughout these three hundred years or so, Christianity went from a relatively unknown religion to the main form of adoration in Ireland, Scotland, England and Wales. First, there were missionaries from the continent, and then there were monks and monasteries in the islands. Later, there were missionaries from the islands and monasteries in the continent. When these missionaries arrived, they brought with them the Gospel as it was preached and lived in Rome; when they departed, they were preaching like the Celts, living like the Celts and believing like the Celts. For a while, it seemed like there would be two Churches. Then the world changed: the Middle Ages arrived and the Celts were Romanized. However, some of what they preached, lived and believed came thru, modified, adapted and ready to face whatever challenges this new world might impose them. That is the reason why this dissertation aims at showing how was it that Celtic-speaking people lived before Christianity, how were them converted, how did they comprehend Christianity and what happened after that. In order to do that, the text articulates itself around the image of some of the most important founders of monasteries, men who later became saints: Patricius, Columba and Columbanus. Moreover, its main goal is to show that, during the time frame in question, Celtic monasteries functioned not only as an expression of faith or religion as an institution but also a geographical space of historical liminarity; the very essence of time-space transition / Os séculos V, VI e VII são conhecidos, dentro da história dos países de língua celta como a Era dos Santos . Durante esses cerca de trezentos anos, o Cristianismo deixou de ser uma religião relativamente desconhecida e se tornou a principal forma de adoração na Irlanda, na Escócia, na Inglaterra e em Gales. Primeiro vieram os missionários do continente e então os monges e os monastérios nas ilhas. Depois, foi a vez dos missionários das ilhas e dos monastérios no continente. Quando esses missionários chegaram, levaram consigo o Evangelho como ele era pregado em Roma; quando eles partiram, eles pregavam, viviam e criam como os celtas. Por um tempo, parecia que haveria duas Igrejas. Então o mundo mudou: a Idade Média chegou e os celtas foram romanizados. Contudo, alguma coisa do que eles pregavam, viviam e criam, sobreviveu modificado, adaptado e pronto para enfrentar quaisquer desafios que o novo mundo lhe impusesse. É por isso que essa tese pretende mostrar como os celtas viviam antes do Cristianismo, como eles foram convertidos, como eles compreenderam a religião e o que aconteceu depois disso. Para tanto, o texto se articula ao redor da imagem de alguns dos mais importantes fundadores de monastérios; homens que depois viriam a ser santos: Patricius, Columba e Columbanus. Além disso, o principal objeto desse trabalho é mostrar que, durante a baliza cronológica em questão, os monastérios celtas funcionaram não apenas como expressões de fé ou de religião enquanto instituição, mas também como o espaço geográfico da liminaridade histórica, a própria essência da transição espaço-tempo

El objetivo de esta aproximación al fenómeno de la mozarabización-arabización de las gentes desplazadas desde Al-Ándalus o ubicadas y desplazadas en territorios de la amplia Gallaecia y fronteras, es poder ver su huella, seguir su rastro allá donde se localice cualquier fenómeno de tradición latino-romance y andalusí. Los datos de contexto de la Ylliqiyya son claves más allá de la Galiza nuclear, en las fronteras (Marcas Inferior, Al-Tagr al garbi y Central, cabeza y discurso del Duero) e interior, y así nuestras fuentes documentales monásticas seleccionadas (tumbos de Sobrado, Samos, Celanova y Castañeda sanabrés) son capaces de enfocar onomástica-antroponimia, léxico, objetos de extracción comercial y litúrgicos, toponimia-hagiotoponimia, y esos nuevos caminos de investigación que atisbamos en los siglos VIII al XI. / The objective of this approach to the phenomenon of the mozarabization-arabicization of the people moved from Al-Ándalus or located and moved in territories of the ample Gallaecia and borders, is to be able to see its track, to follow its sign there where any phenomenon of Latin-Romance and andalusí tradition is located. The data of context of the Ylliqiyya are keys beyond the nuclear Galiza, in the borders (Marks Inferior, Al-Tagr al Garbi and Power station, head and route of the Duero) and interior, and thus our selected monastic documentary sources (tumbles of Sobrado, Samos, Celanova and Castañeda) are able to focus onomastic-anthroponymy, lexicon, objects of commercial extraction and liturgical, toponymy-hagiotoponymy, and those new ways of investigation that we watched in centuries VIII to the XI.

The assignment of diploma thesis was the design of a sustainable urban structure based on a medieval city in Náměšť nad Oslavou. As part of the work, I tried to find the best solution for this solved area, which is isolated by a railway corridor and suggest a new city district based on the principle of a medieval city, which will be linked to the existing city. The proposed development of city blocks is built on a system of platforms that level the terrain within the blocks and enable optimal parking spaces and the use of commercials. This development is complemented by several blocks with villa houses and a city SPA complex. The proposal supports the construction of cycle paths that connect parts of the solved area with the Rathan recreation pond. The design also includes a large park with a lookout tower and a sports ground on the city horizon ner the SPA complex. The accent was also placed on the public area near the new railway station, which serves to gather people for cultural and entertainment opportunities. This public space should not compete with an existing Masaryk square, which fulfills a representative and administration function.

Die Kirche von San Isidoro in León besitzt einen der umfangreichsten und ambitioniertesten Kirchenschätze, der sich – aus einem Stiftungszusammenhang stammend – über die Wirren der Jahrhunderte in Europa erhalten hat. Als kulturelles Erbe des christlichen Königreiches Spanien wird der Schatz in unzähligen Beiträgen erwähnt. Wiederholt hervorgehoben wird seine Bedeutung für die Einführung und Ausbreitung des romanischen Stils auf der Iberischen Halbinsel und die damit verbundene Europäisierung der spanischen Königreiche. Aus welchen Quellen die neu eingeführten Stilmittel schöpften, wird in der Wissenschaft konträr diskutiert. Sowohl Frankreich als auch England, Byzanz und die arabische Welt werden als Vorbilder in Betracht gezogen. In den 1920er und 1930er Jahren nahmen Arthur Kingsley Porter und Manuel Gómez-Moreno erstmals an, dass die visuelle Ursprünge auch in der ottonische Kunst zu finden seien. Das Ziel der vorliegenden Dissertation ist es, dieser vor rund 100 Jahren formulierten und immer wieder aufgegriffenen Vermutung erstmalig in vertiefenden Studien kritisch nachzugehen. Die nordspanischen Könige, so die These, rezitierten die ottonisch-frühsalische Herrschaftspräsentation, um den eigenen imperialen Machtanspruch auf der Iberischen Halbinsel zu manifestieren. Mit den neuen ikonographischen Formen zog analog dazu ein neuer künstlerischer Stil ein. / The Church of San Isidoro in León has one of the most extensive and ambitious ecclesiastical treasures, which - based on a foundation context - has survived the turmoil of the centuries in Europe. Being a cultural heritage of the Christian Kingdom of Spain, the treasure is mentioned in countless articles. Its importance for the introduction and spread of the Romanesque style on the Iberian Peninsula and the associated Europeanization of the Spanish kingdoms is repeatedly emphasized. It is contrarily discussed in science from which sources the newly introduced stylistic devices drew. Both France and England, Byzantium and the Arab world are considered role models. In the 1920s and 1930s, Arthur Kingsley Porter and Manuel Gómez-Moreno first assumed that the visual origins were also to be found in Ottonian art. The aim of the present dissertation is to critically investigate the assumption, which was formulated around 100 years ago and has been repeatedly taken up, in-depth studies for the first time. According to the thesis, the Northern Spanish kings recited the Ottonian-early Salian rule presentation to manifest their own imperial claim to power on the Iberian Peninsula. Analogous to this, a new artistic style was introduced with the new iconographic forms.
