Constantine the African and ʻAlī ibn al-ʻAbbās al-Magūsī : the Pantegni and related texts /
:
When the tenth-century Kāmil as-sinā'a (or al-Kitāb al-malakī ) of 'Alī ibn al-'Abbās al-Mağūsī was adapted for a Latin-reading audience by Constantine the African in the late eleventh century, the medieval West had, for the first time, the opportunity to use a text which covered the whole of medicine. But the 100-odd extant manuscripts suggest that Contantine's Pantegni was put together over a considerable period of time, and chapters from other Latin and newly-translated Arabic medical works were added to or substituted those of the Kāmil . This book is the first to be devoted to Constantine the African: it sheds light on the School of Salerno and the formation of a medical corpus in the High Middle Ages.

The Comparative Poetics of Homeric Literary Imitation from Antiquity to Renaissance France : Aphrodite's Charm /
:
Aphrodite's famous ribbon known as the cestus , the irresistible love charm that she loaned to Hera in the Iliad, was, thanks to a fruitful early misreading, transformed by ancient, medieval, and Renaissance authors into a symbol of honorable feminine chastity: in Maurice Scève's 1560 Microcosme , an epic rewriting of Genesis, Eve first appears before an astonished Adam wearing the virginal cestus as a symbolic guarantee of her sexual innocence. This book traces the history of this curious development from Homer to the end of the sixteenth century in France. Through analyses of both famous and little-known texts, it illustrates the complexity and fecund liberty of Homeric reception.

L'Empire islamique : VIIe-XIe siècle /
:
"L'histoire des cinq siècles de l'Empire islamique, de la mort du Prophète en 632 à l'éviction des Arabes des structures de pouvoir et à l'émergence des sultanats turcs au XIe siècle, en passant par les conquêtes, la mise en place du califat, l'éclosion et la chute des dynasties abbasside, omeyyade ou fatimide, tel est le propos de Gabriel Martinez-Gros. Mais pour éviter le biais d'une histoire de l'Islam vue d'Occident - ou l'essor de l'un est inévitablement le déclin de l'autre - l'auteur convoque les quelques rares voix qui nous parviennent encore du fond de l'histoire islamique. Ces voix, ce sont celles des historiens arabes médiévaux, dont Ibn Khaldûn. Ainsi émerge une tout autre perception de l'Empire islamique, où les dynasties se consolident dans la première génération de leur existence, atteignent leur floraison dans la deuxième, vieillissent et agonisent dans la dernière. C'est donc à une triple réflexion que nous invite ce livre admirable et singulier : d'abord sur l'histoire de l'Islam médiéval, ensuite sur la dynamique impériale, enfin sur l'écriture de l'histoire."--Page 4 of cover.

The theology of John Duns Scotus /
:
In this volume, Antonie Vos offers a comprehensive analysis of the philosophy and theological thought of John Duns Scotus. First, a summary is given of the life and times of John Duns Scotus: his background and years in Oxford (12-80-1301), his time in Paris and Cologne (1308-1309) and his year in exile in Oxford and Cambridge (1303-1304). From there on, Scotus' Trinitarian theology and Christology are introduced. Duns not only embraced the doctrine of the Trinity, he also proved that God must be Trinitarian by connecting the first Person with knowledge to the second One with will. Further insights of Scotus' are discussed, such as the theory of Creation, ethics, justification and predestination, and the sacraments. The volume concludes with an overview of historical dilemmas in Scotus' theological thought.

The Character of David in Judaism, Christianity and Islam : Warrior, Poet, Prophet and King /
:
King David if one of the most central figures in all of the major monotheistic traditions. He generally connotes the heroic past of the (more imagined than real) ancient Israelite empire and is associated with messianic hopes for the future. Nevertheless, his richly ambivalent and fascinating literary portrayal in the Hebrew Bible is one of the most complex of all biblical characters. This volume aims at taking a new, critical look at the process of biblical creation and subsequent exegetical transformation of the character of David and his attributed literary composition (the Psalms), with particular emphasis put on the multilateral fertilization and cross-cultural interchanges among Jews, Christians and Muslims.
