{"title":"New Definition of the Black Death: Genetic Findings and Historical Interpretations","authors":"Monica H. Green","doi":"10.5209/dmae.83788","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5209/dmae.83788","url":null,"abstract":"The field of infectious disease history has been transformed in the past decade in large part because of fortuitous developments in several adjacent fields, most importantly genetics. The medieval period (ca. 500 to ca. 1500) has proved particularly important for these developments, not simply because it is now the earliest period from which whole genomes of several bacterial and viral pathogens have been retrieved, but also because the narratives that can be constructed about disease emergence and dissemination are most robust for this period thanks to the amount of surviving archival evidence. This essay introduces the transformative work in molecular biology that has allowed reconstruction of the evolutionary histories of pathogens afflicting humankind. Plague, the disease caused by the bacterium Yersinia pestis, has been at the forefront of this new work. An extraordinarily lethal disease, plague gives a prime example of how the evolutionary narratives of genetics yield information valuable to historians, precisely because they allow us to see phenomena at a hitherto invisible microscopic level. This essay proposes a new definition of the Black Death, or more properly, the Second Plague Pandemic, which is based on a new, evolutionary understanding of the pandemic’s pathogen. However, scientific approaches are not inherently more productive of unassailable truths than are traditional humanistic or archaeological methods for the study of disease history. The complementarity of material and cultural sources is especially fruitful for work employing the perspectives of global history. Although most historiography on the late medieval pandemic has focused on Europe, whose crisis with plague did not begin until 1347, I argue that such a limited geographic definition occludes not only as much as a century and a half of plague activity, but also occludes connected events in Asia and Africa. Given the urgency of understanding pandemics in a world of rapid change, the history of plague offers us the best available model for thinking about pandemics.","PeriodicalId":40181,"journal":{"name":"De Medio Aevo","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43163194","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Terezis","doi":"10.5209/dmae.83577","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5209/dmae.83577","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper we discuss the general question on how a Byzantine philosopher-theologian of the late Palaeologan Renaissance forms some aspects of Natural Science. Specifically, focusing on George Pachymeres’ Paraphrasis of Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite’s De divinis nominibus, we investigate how this philosopher builds his theory on the natural elements (earth, air, water, fire). We raise a number of questions that have to do with the way in which the elements exist, what is their relation to matter, how causality works in this case and whether priority is given to Ontology or Epistemology. From a methodological point of view, we approach the text scientifically, philosophically and theologically. The most important conclusion that we draw is that in this commentary George Pachymeres’ references on the elements can be placed into three categories (the elements 1. as the products of the divine energies; 2. as cosmological sources; 3. as allegorical names), depending on the context. Finally, we can contend that, although he does not present here a systematic theory on the elements, the Byzantine thinker, who has a thorough knowledge of both the Platonic and Aristotelian tradition, manages to conceive the concept of the “element”.","PeriodicalId":40181,"journal":{"name":"De Medio Aevo","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49599115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

La cuestión era especialmente gravosa si se tienen en cuenta las importantes funciones de mediación atribuidas a los ángeles en contextos no solo teológicos, sino también filosóficos. Esta circunstancia pone de manifiesto la presencia en la tradición latina de, al menos, dos perspectivas, iniciadas respectivamente por san Agustín y san Ambrosio. El objeto de este trabajo de estética medieval consiste en analizar las distintas decisiones en torno al motivo de la creación de los ángeles y en estudiar cómo los escribas e iluminadores medievales, en esta como otras cuestiones, proponían con sus miniaturas el apoyo a una u otra posición, hasta el punto de generar distintos tipos iconográficos de acuerdo a las posiciones doctrinarias a las que se adscribieran. Nos aproximaremos al papel que jugaban los ángeles en la filosofía patrística y la consecuente importancia teológica de la cuestión en torno a su creación. Se estudian, seguidamente, las principales contribuciones latinas en el campo de los comentarios a los seis días de la Creación, tomando como base las dos alternativas mencionadas. Se propone, en tercer lugar, el análisis de una selección de imágenes provenientes de manuscritos medievales de entre los siglos XII al XIV con el propósito de identificar los tipos iconográficos del motivo indicado. Por último, presentamos unas consideraciones finales.","PeriodicalId":40181,"journal":{"name":"De Medio Aevo","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45874090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
