The Rest After The Desert: Ending Confessions, George S. Tate
The Rest After The Desert: Ending Confessions, George S. Tate
Quidditas
Augustine, it seems, ends the Confessions twice: the first time neatly at the conclusion of Book 9; the second, problematically, at the end of Book 13. The first ending is an autobiographical ending, but what of the second? The structural and generic unity of the Confessions is a vexed issue, even though its coherence of theme is increasingly recognized. If the work is unified, is it unified as autobiography? If (as I argue) Augustine had come to find the conversion paradigm of his first ending to be unsatisfactory and had exploded it by adopting a new and dangerous strategy in …
"Pleasing Passages": Style In The Old English Pastoral Care, Ray Moye
"Pleasing Passages": Style In The Old English Pastoral Care, Ray Moye
Quidditas
The Old English Pastoral Care, a translation of Gregory the Great's Liber Regula Pastoralis which King Alfred completed sometime in the first few years of the 890s, was the first in a series of translations of Latin Christian works in English that would serve as the foundation of Alfred's program of cultural and educational reform aimed at restoring England's preeminence as a leading Christian intellectual center. This reputation that the land had enjoyed during the glory days of Bede and Alcuin had been lost as a consequence of continual Viking invasions in the eighth and ninth centuries, with the …
Ethics And The Seven Liberal Arts: Another Look At The Liberal Arts Curriculum Of The Twelfth And Thirteenth Centuries, Willard W. Dickerson Iii
Ethics And The Seven Liberal Arts: Another Look At The Liberal Arts Curriculum Of The Twelfth And Thirteenth Centuries, Willard W. Dickerson Iii
Quidditas
Most modern discussions of the liberal arts curriculum of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries focus their attention rather narrowly on the seven arts subsumed under the trivium (grammar, logic, and rhetoric) and quadrivium (arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy). This is not without some cause. After all, Thierry of Chartres, in the prologue to his Heptaatheucon, remarked:
For since these are the two principal tools of the philosopher, understanding (intellectus) and the expression (interpretatio) thereof—the quadrivium gives light to understanding and the trivium furnishes the elegant, rational, decorous expression thereof—it is evident that the heptatheucon [i.e., …
Leonardo's Virtuvian Man: A Renaissance Microcosm, Charles Carman
Leonardo's Virtuvian Man: A Renaissance Microcosm, Charles Carman
Quidditas
Human nature is that nature which...elevated above all the works of God...enfolds intellectual and sensible nature...so that the ancients were right in calling it a microcosm, or a small world. Hence, human nature is that nature which, if it were elevated unto a union with Maximality, would be the fullness of all the perfections of each and every thing.

The Cavendishes, The Evelyns, And Teasing In Verse And Prose, James Fitzmaurice
The Cavendishes, The Evelyns, And Teasing In Verse And Prose, James Fitzmaurice
Quidditas
It is often noted by those who study seventeenth-century women writers that Mary Evelyn, wife to the famous diarist, pronounced Margaret Cavendish, duchess of Newcastle, "rambling as her books, aiming at science, difficulties, high notions, terminating commonly in nonsense, oaths, and obscenity." Such evidence is sometimes used to show that Margaret Cavendish deserved to be called "Mad Madge of Newcastle," an epithet that frequently made its way into biographical references to her in after ages. Nevertheless, it as easily might be the case Mary Evelyn was merely a little miffed with the attentions her husband, John, paid the not unattractive …

Boethius Among The Navajo, Donald F. Duclow
Boethius Among The Navajo, Donald F. Duclow
Quidditas
The title "Boethius among the Navajo" may require some explaining. This essay comes from my teaching of "The Healing Journey," a cross-disciplinary course on suffering and healing. Taking a page from Viktor Frankl, the course centers on the role of meaning in responding to illness and grief and in promoting recovery. Boethius's Consolation of Philosophy has represented the classical tradition in the course, and the social science readings included, among others, an essay entitled "Navaho Medicine" by Donald Sandner, a Jungian analyst. In addition, Sandner's book, Navaho Symbols of Healing, provides a detailed, careful study of Navajo medicine men …
"Withoute Words": The Medieval Lady Dreams In The Assembly Of Ladies, Colleen Donnelly
"Withoute Words": The Medieval Lady Dreams In The Assembly Of Ladies, Colleen Donnelly
Quidditas
Two poems, The Assembly of Ladies and The Floure and the Leafe, are unique among Middle English dream visions due to the gender of their narrators; both are narrated by women. In his edition of these two poems, Derek Pearsall argues that whether they were told by women or not is really of little importance. There are many examples of men, such as Lydgate and Deschamps, writing as women. However, while men may speak for women in other types of poems, a woman narrator of Middle English dream vision survives only in these two poems. Moreover, as Alexandra Barratt …
