Medieval research has grown tremendously in depth and breadth over the last decades. Particularly our understanding of medieval culture, of the basic living conditions, and the specific value system prevalent at that time has considerably expanded, to a point where we are in danger of no longer seeing the proverbial forest for the trees. The present, innovative handbook offers compact articles on essential topics, ideals, specific knowledge, and concepts defining the medieval world as comprehensively as possible. The topics covered in this new handbook pertain to issues such as love and marriage, belief in God, hell, and the devil, education, lordship and servitude, Christianity versus Judaism and Islam, health, medicine, the rural world, the rise of the urban class, travel, roads and bridges, entertainment, games, and sport activities, numbers, measuring, the education system, the papacy, saints, the senses, death, and money. 410 0$aDe Gruyter reference. 606 $aCivilization, Medieval$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 607 $aEurope$xHistory$y476-1492$vHandbooks, manuals, etc 615 0$aCivilization, Medieval 676 $a306.0902 702 $aClassen$b Albrecht 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797569003321 996 $aHandbook of medieval culture$93796699 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04215nam 2200565 450 001 9910788801203321 005 20230721050234.0 010 $a1-4214-0165-7 035 $a(CKB)3240000000068907 035 $a(MH)012104513-7 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000606979 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11411404 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000606979 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10584919 035 $a(PQKB)11096581 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4398398 035 $a(OCoLC)868198214 035 $a(MdBmJHUP)muse2806 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL4398398 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr11161115 035 $a(OCoLC)794701423 035 $a(EXLCZ)993240000000068907 100 $a20080924d2009 uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 10$aClio & the crown $ethe politics of history in medieval and early modern Spain /$fRichard L.

These accounts, sanctioned and supported by the ruling government, often gloss over the more controversial aspects of a king's or queen?s time on the throne. Instead, they present highly selective and positive readings of a monarch?s contribution to national identity and global affairs. In Clio and the Crown, Richard L. Kagan examines the official histories of Spanish monarchs from medieval times to the middle of the 18th century. He expertly guides readers through the different kinds of official histories commissioned: those whose primary focus was the monarch; those that centered on the Spanish kingdom as a whole; and those that celebrated Spain?s conquest of the New World. In doing so, Kagan also documents the life and work of individual court chroniclers, examines changes in the practice of official history, and highlights the political machinations that influenced the redaction of such histories. Just as world leaders today rely on fast-talking press officers to explain their sometimes questionable actions to the public, so too did the kings and queens of medieval and early modern Spain. Monarchs often went to great lengths to exert complete control over the official history of their reign, physically intimidating historians, destroying and seizing manuscripts and books, rewriting past histories, and restricting history writing to authorized persons. Still, the larger practice of history writing - as conducted by nonroyalist historians, various scholars and writers, and even church historians - provided a corrective to official histories. Kagan concludes that despite its blemishes, the writing of official histories contributed, however imperfectly, to the practice of historiography itself. 607 $aSpain$xHistory$y711-1516$xHistoriography 607 $aSpain$xHistory$y16th century$xHistoriography 607 $aSpain$xHistory$y17th century$xHistoriography 607 $aSpain$xHistory$y18th century$xHistoriography 676 $a946.0072 700 $aKagan$b Richard L.$f1943-$0140802 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910788801203321 996 $aClio & the crown$93853008 997 $aUNINA 999 $aThis Record contains information from the Harvard Library Bibliographic Dataset, which is provided by the Harvard Library under its Bibliographic Dataset Use Terms and includes data made available by, among others the Library of Congress
