Item Engelbert of Admont's De Regimine Principum and Lex Animata: a study in the eclecticism of the Medieval Aristotelian political tradition(2018-05) Crouse, Landon B.; Saak, Eric L.; Cramer, Kevin; Thill, Elizabeth W.This is the study of Engelbert of Admont's unique and practical take on Aristotelian political theory post-rediscovery of Aristotle's ethico-political works. Through the methods of reception theory and a comparative analysis of his first major political treatise, De regimine principum, with those of his contemporaries similar political treatises (i.e., St. Thomas Aquinas, Giles of Rome, and Marsilius of Padua) and their use of Aristotelian sources and concepts--e.g. lex animata--I have shown not only Engelbert's more original, unique, and practical approach to political philosophy within the Aristotelian political tradition of the later Middle Ages, but also a more comprehensively eclectic nature of this tradition. Engelbert's political philosophy as espoused in his De regimine principum is thus a watershed in the development of the use of practical political science.Item Medieval latin manuscript culture of the Crown of Aragon. Transcription and study of the parchments of the 12th-13th centuries of the Archive “general b” of the Borja Library (Sant Cugat del Vallès)(Mirabilia: International Journal of Antiquity, Middle, and Modern Ages, 2022) Mallorquí-Ruscalleda, EnricEl P. Antoni Borràs i Feliu, arxiver de la biblioteca del Centre Borja de Sant Cugat del Vallés, va donar a conèixer l’any 1994 l’adquisició d’una sèrie de pergamins per part de la biblioteca de l’esmentat centre. El P. Borràs va classificar aquests pergamins, de tipologia molt variada, agrupant-los en quatre fons documentals diferents: A, B (Fons general), C (Fons Ripoll-Sant Joan de les Abadesses), D (Fons Berga) i E (Fons vari). En les pàgines que segueixen m’ocupo de la transcripció i n’ofereixo un breu estudi codicológic i paleogràfic de B (Fons General). Entre els pergamins en qüestió s’hi troben documents pontificis (butlles), documents reials, títols d’universitat i uns quants documents classificats per segles: del s. XII al s. XVII. A les pàgines que segueixen ens ocuparem d’aquests últims, concretament, dels documents catalogats amb els números 4.1 (número 1 per a nosaltres) i 4.2 (números 2 i 3).
