This study is dedicated to the use of the biblical figure Tubal in early modern Iberian chronicles. The focus will be centered on how it is used in different ways in the different kingdoms (Castile, Aragon, Catalonia, Valencia, Portugal and the Basque Provinces and Navarre) and what the authors are trying to achieve through this. Results show that while Castilian authors try to prove Spanish antiquity with the Tubal settlement, in other kingdom, especially in Catalonia, Portugal and Navarre there is a more regional use of the myth. Most of these authors try to prove that their own kingdom is the territory where Tubal settled, which would give a pre-eminence of antiquity to it in comparison to the other Iberian territories.

This paper examines the relation between three concepts: a child’s will, children’s agency and child labour. Addressing the current debate about children’s agency, this paper shows how these concepts were developed in Byzantine society in order to advance a religious agenda that encouraged the child to run away from home in favour of a new life in a monastery. Children were attributed with a will of their own and acted upon it before they reached the age of puberty. This perspective took the child out of the private sphere by attributing agency to it. The paper addresses the current debate about children’s agency revealing the conceptualization of this term as motivated by an economic agenda in which the need to profit from the child’s labour plays an important role.

In the 13th century Persia, dominated by the Mongols, a Byzantine princess, Maria Paleologina, stood out greatly in the court of Abaqa Khan, her husband. The Il-Khanate of Persia was then an empire precariously balanced between Islam, dominant in its territories and Christianity that was prevailing in its court and in the diplomatic relations. The role of Maria, a fervent Christian, was decisive in her husband’s policy and in that of any of his successors. Her figure deserves a detailed study and that is what we propose in this paper.

You Are What You Ate was a British public engagement project funded by the Wellcome Trust between 2010 and 2014. It was a collaboration between the University of Leeds, the University of Bradford and Wakefield Council, especially its museums, schools and libraries, which aimed to use medieval food as a way to encourage reflection about modern food and lifestyle. The innovative project ran three exhibitions in Wakefield and Pontefract, a mobile exhibition, numerous schools and youth workshops, and a series of market stalls and osteology workshops for adults and children in the Yorkshire region. This article provides an overview of the project’s aims, activities, outcomes, including an analysis of how to evaluate them, and its legacy.

The aim of this article is to study the role of kings in the episcopal appointments in Portugal from 1245 to 1357. This chronology covers the period marked by the government of three kings: Afonso III, Dinis and Afonso IV on what it is a crucial phase in the construction of Portuguese royalty after the deposition of king Sancho II by the pope in 1245. At the same time the procedures of episcopal elections are considerable defined by the papacy and the canon law, leaving less space for royal influence. That is why we will reflect about the forms this influence can adopt as a key element in the king’s policy of reward loyalty.

The history of the Bohai studies in Russia is more than 150 years old. During those years Russian scholars have produced a number of interesting and valuable publications and combine use of written sources with study of the archeological sites. But for a long time they did not pay attention to bone remains. Only in the 1970s did Russian specialists begin to study osteological materials and this research gave a great deal of information about agriculture and other aspects of the Bohai people. In spite of this, osteological studies in the Russian Far East remain unknown in the Western academic world in many aspects, largely because almost all Russian scholars usually do not publish in English.

This article is an overview of all the issues related to Middle Ages addressed by Colombian historians. The main goal of this article is to show how Middle Ages has been object of study and research in Colombia. We have based this summary in the articles and reviews published in local history journals in Colombia. In this way, we could understand how Middle Ages has been an issue of great concern among national historians who have shown great interest in such a rich topic, and who have proposed significant ideas to the study of this specific time of human development in the world’s history.

Curial e Guelfa is not a chivalric novel written in the 15th century, but a ‘Gothic’ novel written in the 19th century by its professed discoverer, Manuel Mila i Fontanals. The text reveals a clear portrait of its author: an erudite scholar who had read vastly, from Muntaner’s Cronica to Il Novellino, from Paris e Viana to Petit Jehan de Saintre; someone familiar with the troubadours Rigaut de Berbezilh and Raimbaut de Vaqueiras; an author who had read, among many other works, Fulgentius’ Mitologiae and Enrique de Villena’s Glosas de la Eneida; Alfonso de la Torre’s Vision deleitable, Manrique’s Verses and El cortesano by Luis Milan. The concordances with these works make it evident that the book is a composite imitation by the highly erudite Catalan writer. Moreover, they attest to the fact that Curial e Guelfa can by no means have been written in the 15th century, as no writer could have had all the aforementioned works at his disposal at the time, and it was naturally impossible to read books published after the alleged date of writing of Curial e Guelfa.
《居里·盖尔法》不是一部写于15世纪的骑士小说,而是一部19世纪的“哥特式”小说,作者曼努埃尔·米拉·丰塔纳尔斯(Manuel Mila i Fontanals)自称是该书的发现者。这本书清晰地展现了作者的形象:一位博学多才的学者,从蒙坦纳的《克朗尼卡》到《新小说》,从《巴黎与维亚纳》到《小耶汉·德·圣》,他都读过很多书;熟悉游吟诗人里戈特·德·贝贝西尔和雷姆博·德·瓦奎拉的人;在许多其他作品中,他读过富尔根修斯的《线粒体》和恩里克·德·维莱纳的《埃内达的语言》;阿方索·德·拉·托雷的《可删除的视觉》,曼里克的《诗句》和路易斯·米兰的《El cortesano》。与这些作品的一致性表明,这本书是由高度博学的加泰罗尼亚作家合成的模仿。此外,它们证明《居里尔·居尔法》绝不可能是在15世纪写成的,因为当时没有作家能拥有上述所有作品,自然也不可能阅读在所谓的《居里尔·居尔法》写作日期之后出版的书籍。
