Although referred to as an Italian dialect (Venetian dialeto, Italian dialetto) even by its speakers, Venetian is a separate language with many local varieties. Its precise place within the Romance language family remains controversial. History[edit] Like all Italian dialects in the Romance language family, Venetian is descended from Vulgar Latin and influenced by the Italian language.
The language enjoyed substantial prestige in the days of the Venetian Republic, when it attained the status of a lingua franca in the Mediterranean.

He is considered one of the most important historians of the time period,[1] best known for writing the eyewitness account De la Conquête de Constantinople (On the Conquest of Constantinople), about the battle for Constantinople between the Christians of the West and the Christians of the East on 13 April 1204.

Medieval_animal_trials_why_they_re_not_quite_as_crazy_as_they_sound.2. Illustration by Robert Neubecker In the fall of 1457, villagers in Savigny, France witnessed a sow and six piglets attack and kill a 5-year-old boy.
Today, the animals would be summarily killed. But errant 15th-century French pigs went to court. And it wasn’t for a show trial—this was the real deal, equipped with a judge, two prosecutors, eight witnesses, and a defense attorney for the accused swine. Witness testimony proved beyond reasonable doubt that the sow had killed the child. Such a case might seem bizarre to modern observers, but animal trials were commonplace public events in medieval and early modern Europe. Scholars who have explored animals on trial generally avoid addressing this mentality. Perotin: Alleluia Nativitas gloriose virginis. Things to Note Perotin uses the chant Alleluia Nativitas, (score),(mp3) as a basis for the two organal voices.
The need to coordinate more than two lines of music posed a particular problem for the composers and consequently a system of rhythmic notation was devised. Perotin uses different types of organum in this work, fluid music in the two upper voices over a long held note (a drone of sorts); similar music with more change in the chant line (discant: see ex semine at 6:00) as well as plainchant itself. The more syllabic sections of the chant are set with the longer held notes and the sections of the chant that are more florid are set with discant.

Wormwood Benefits & Information. Chances are, many readers know that wormwood is the key ingredient in the famous European beverage absinthe. Almost as many know little else about this fascinating and beneficial herb. Wormwood belongs to the genus Artemisia, named for the goddess Artemis. Amalrician. The Amalricians were a pantheist, free love[1] movement named after Amalric of Bena. The beliefs are thought to have influenced the Brethren of the Free Spirit. The beginnings of medieval pantheistic Christian theology lie in the early 13th century, with theologians at Paris, such as David of Dinant, Amalric of Bena, and Ortlieb of Strassburg, and was later mixed with the millenarist theories of Gioacchino da Fiore. Fourteen followers of Amalric began to preach that "all things are One, because whatever is, is God. " The Canterbury Tales: Character Profiles. Average Overall Rating: 4.5 Total Votes: 1424 The Host or "Harry Bailly": The proprietor of the Tabard Inn where the pilgrims to Canterbury stay before beginning their journey.
He accompanies the pilgrims on their journey. It is the Host who devised the scheme of the tales, proposing that each tell two tales on the way to Canterbury, and he frequently mediates arguments between pilgrims and suggests who shall tell the next story. He has a bit of a class complex, and can be seen regularly toadying up to the upper-class and higher-status characters. Les personnages des croisades. Boniface de Montferrat. Al-Adel. Un article de Wikipédia, l'encyclopédie libre. Amalric of Bena. Amalric of Bena (French: Amaury de Bène, Amaury de Chartres; Latin: Almaricus, Amalricus, Amauricus; died c. 1204-1207 AD) was a French theologian and sect leader, after whom the Amalricians are named. Biography[edit] Amalric was born in the latter part of the 12th century at Bennes, a village between Ollé and Chauffours in the diocese of Chartres.
Amalric taught philosophy and theology at the University of Paris and enjoyed a great reputation as a subtle dialectician; his lectures developing the philosophy of Aristotle attracted a large circle of hearers. In 1204 his doctrines were condemned by the university, and, on a personal appeal to Pope Innocent III, the sentence was ratified, Amalric being ordered to return to Paris and recant his errors. His death was caused, it is said, by grief at the humiliation to which he had been subjected. Propositions[edit] Peter Waldo. Peter Waldo, Valdo, Valdes, or Waldes (c. 1140 – c. 1205), also Pierre Vaudès or de Vaux, is credited as the founder of the Waldensians, a Christian spiritual movement of the Middle Ages, descendants of which still exist in various regions of southern Europe.
Life and work[edit] Specific details of his life are largely unknown. Extant sources relate that he was a wealthy clothier and merchant from Lyons and a man of some learning. Enrico Dandolo. Blindness[edit] It is not known for certain when and how Dandolo became blind. The story passed around after the Fourth Crusade was that he had been blinded by the Byzantines during the 1171 expedition to Byzantium (see Vital II Michele). Supposedly, Emperor Manuel Comnenus "ordered his eyes to be blinded with glass; and his eyes were uninjured, but he saw nothing".[1] However, this explanation is certainly false, as Dandolo continued to conduct business and sign documents well after 1171.
In Venice it was illegal for a blind person to sign a document, since he/she could not read. Dandolo's blindness appears to have been total. History of Britain and Ireland - Google Books.
