The second chapter examines Maximus' understanding of mystical ascension. Equipped with the "ontological" and "mystical" foundation, the...

Transforming the State: King, Court and Political Culture in the Realms of Aragon (1213-1387)
ISBN: 9789004127432 / Angielski / Twarda / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, the Crown of Aragon was among the most active powers of the Mediterranean world.

Because change in medieval institutions, however, is based as much on exigency and personality as on political theory and program, this volume also focuses on the way in which the processes of transformation functioned at a human level. The book explores the quotidian operations of the...
