Con este volumen culmina la trilogía sobre la religiosidad en España durante la Edad Media. En el primero se afrontaba el análisis de este fenómeno social en los primeros siglos medievales (siglos VII-X), para dedicar el segundo al estudio de los siglos centrales del Medioevo (XI-XIII). Con este tercero se examina la problemática de las postreras centurias (XIV-XV) del amplísimo periodo medieval. Se tienen en cuenta también aquí el modelo y los principios teóricos que determinaron los trabajos anteriores: el significado de la religiosidad como realidad determinada por las interrelaciones estructurales del feudalismo, en cuyo modo de producción se inscribe toda la época, sin olvidar la dinámica determinante de la propia religiosidad a lo largo de estos doscientos años finales del universo medieval ni las relaciones recíprocas de las tres religiones del Libro, justo en un periodo en el que la influencia del cristianismo, instalado en el poder de manera definitiva, fue decisiva para la suerte, negativa, y desastrosa a la larga, de los seguidores de la Toráh y del Corán. A lo largo de esta obra no se pierde nunca de vista la tan traída y llevada “gran depresión” que afectó a todas las estructuras del sistema feudal durante el siglo XIV sobre todo. Pero consideramos esa dinámica, en principio negativa, no como una crisis agónica y final del sistema, sino, y sobre todo, como una profunda transformación del mismo, que posibilitará su consolidación al traspasar los umbrales de lo que denominamos modernidad. La vida y las experiencias religiosas estuvieron también sometidas a la misma dinámica, llena de contradicciones, de “decadencia” y de “transformaciones”. La Iglesia rica y poderosa de la etapa más brillante de la Reconquista, hasta el siglo XIII inclusive, tuvo que experimentar las profundas convulsiones de dicha crisis, para salir, asimismo, airosa y reforzada: con nuevos y más poderosos jerarcas, capaces de desempeñar funciones de enorme importancia en los siglos siguientes, pero más humanizada y evangélica, al socaire de la llamada Devotio moderna, presente ya en alguna de las corrientes humanistas, y que tendrá sus continuidad en la época de la Reforma.

Tras la aparición en el 2005, en esta misma colección, del volumen dedicado a la Plena Edad Media (siglos XI al XIII), se publica ahora un estudio centrado en la época altomedieval (siglos VII al X) que constituye, en cuanto a la cronología estudiada, la primera de las obras agrupadas por Javier Fernández Conde en la trilogía La religiosidad medieval en España (cuyo último volumen, correspondiente a la Baja Edad Media, se encuentra actualmente en preparación), unos estudios que se ven complementados por una reciente investigación del autor sobre Prisciliano y su movimiento (Prisciliano y el priscilianismo. Historiografía y realidad, Trea, 2007). Analizar y describir la religiosidad cristiana en España, que trasciende siempre los estrechos y bien definidos límites de lo institucional, sin perder de vista nunca al islam y a los creyentes de la Thorá, constituye el primer objetivo claro de este trabajo. Situar adecuadamente este fenómeno social en el marco complejo del entramado estructural del Medievo, caracterizado ya, sin ningún genero de dudas, por el feudalismo como modo de producción dominante, también pretende ser otra de las referencias esenciales del discurso planteado en la obra. Asimismo, explicar la importancia de la religiosidad medieval en la evolución de las estructuras que solemos calificar de laicas o seculares forma parte del objetivo que pretende lograr una obra que se presenta al lector en una edición corregida y aumentada.

In Culture and Society in Medieval Galicia, twenty-three international authors examine Galicia’s changing place in Iberia, Europe, and the Mediterranean and Atlantic worlds from late antiquity through the thirteenth century. With articles on art and architecture; religion and the church; law and society; politics and historiography; language and literature; and learning and textual culture, the authors introduce medieval Galicia and current research on the region to medievalists, Hispanists, and students of regional culture and society. The cult of St. James, Santiago Cathedral, and the pilgrimage to Compostela are highlighted and contextualized to show how Galicia’s remoteness became the basis for a paradoxical centrality in medieval art, culture, and religion. Contributors are Jeffrey A. Bowman, Manuel Castiñeiras, James D'Emilio, Thomas Deswarte, Pablo C. Díaz, Emma Falque, Amélia P. Hutchinson, Amancio Isla, Henrik Karge, Melissa R. Katz, Michael Kulikowski, Fernando López Sánchez, Luis R. Menéndez Bueyes, William D. Paden, Francisco Javier Pérez Rodríguez, Ermelindo Portela, Rocío Sánchez Ameijeiras, Adeline Rucquoi, Ana Suárez González, Purificación Ubric, Ramón Villares, John Williams †, and Roger Wright.

Text and Textuality in Early Medieval Iberia is a study of the functions and conceptions of writing and reading, documentation and archives, and the role of literate authorities in the Christian kingdoms of the northern Iberian Peninsula between the Muslim conquest of 711 and the fall of the Islamic caliphate at Córdoba in 1031. Based on the first complete survey of the over 4,000 surviving Latin charters from the period, it is an essay in the archaeology and biography of text: part one concerns materiality, tracing the lifecycle of charters from initiation and composition to preservation and reuse, while part two addresses connectivity, delineating a network of texts through painstaking identification of more than 2,000 citations of other charters, secular and canon law, the Bible, liturgy, and monastic rules. Few may have been able to read or write, yet the extent of textuality was broad and deep, in the authority conferred upon text and the arrangements made to use it. Via charter and scribe, society and social arrangements came increasingly to be influenced by norms originating from a network of texts. By profiling the intersection and interaction of text with society and culture, Graham Barrett reconstructs textuality, how the authority of the written and the structures to access it framed and constrained actions and cultural norms, and proposes a new model of early medieval reading. As they cited other texts, charters circulated fragments of those texts; we must rethink the relationship of sources and audiences to reflect fragmentary transmission, in a textuality of imperfect knowledge.

This volume provides relevant insights into medieval political legitimation, and its impact on political competition and notions of power. With a main focus on medieval Castile, the political discourses purporting to legitimate practices of power are discussed, both as pieces of textual material and in their wider historical context.

The objective of this book is to analyse the historical relationships between the phenomenon of Christian pilgrimage and political power within Europe, from the Middle Ages up to the present day. It establishes a discussion in which the twelve contributors to the volume can compare very different situations, such as the medieval pilgrimages and politics in the Latin East as part of warfare and conflict resolution, the significance and reality of pilgrimages in late medieval England or in Rome during the papacy of Innocent III, the 'two-way traffic' pilgrimages in the Tuscan city of Lucca, or the pilgrimages in Eastern European countries as an aspect of opposition to communist power. A major focus is on the pilgrimages to Santiago de Compostela, an important Christian sanctuary from the time of the discovery of the tomb of the apostle St James in the 9th century. Topics covered include the Way of St James as seen through medieval Muslim sources, the political reading of the apostolic cult as an ideological instrument of the propaganda of the Asturian monarchy, Santa Maria de Roncesvalles as an example of political involvement in the assistance of the Jacobean pilgrims, the Order of St John as protector of the medieval pilgrims to Santiago de Compostela, or the nationalist use of the pilgrimages as an element of national unification and internal cohesion during the Spanish Civil War. The final chapter provides a broader, global perspective on pilgrimages up to present times.

Debating medieval Europe serves as an entry point for studying and teaching medieval history. Rather than simply presenting foundational knowledge or introducing sources, it provides the reader with frameworks for understanding the distinctive historiography of the period, digging beneath the historical accounts provided by other textbooks to expose the contested foundations of apparently settled narratives. It opens a space for discussion and debate, as well as providing essential context for the sometimes overwhelming abundance of specialist scholarship. Volume I addresses the early Middle Ages, covering the period c. 450–c. 1050. The chapters are organised chronologically, and cover such topics as the Carolingian Order, England and the ‘Atlantic Archipelago’, the Vikings and Ottonian Germany. It features a highly distinguished selection of medieval historians, including Paul Fouracre and Janet L. Nelson.
