济南魏家庄墓地出土汉镜研究

济南魏家庄墓地共发现汉代墓葬95座,出土了一批保存较为完好的汉代铜镜。这批铜镜的年代以西汉中晚期为主,数量、种类较多,演变脉络清晰,从连弧纹镜、星云纹镜逐渐转变为四乳四螭纹镜。铜镜在墓葬中的摆放位置却未因时而变,始终保持固定位置。铜镜随葬呈现出的“动态”与“静态”并存现象,证明铜镜的背部纹饰不断受到社会文化的影响,其在墓葬中的功能却始终较为稳定。     

东汉连弧纹镜相关问题研究

通过对考古出土的东汉时期连弧纹镜的收集和整理,认为云雷纹连弧纹镜出现于两汉之际,以西安东汉墓的发现最为显著;凹带连弧纹镜出现于东汉早期,自东汉中期流行,魏晋时仍可见到,以洛阳地区发现最为集中。分布上呈现出自西向东的发展趋势,东汉中期开始以都城洛阳为中心向周边辐射。东汉连弧纹镜的形制源于西汉圈带铭文连弧纹镜。本文还对日本福冈平原1号墓出土连弧纹镜的年代进行了相关探讨。

The Master and Marguerite: Godfrey of Fontaines' praise of The Mirror of Simple Souls*

This article examines the evidence for the intellectual and practical relationship between Marguerite Porete and the secular master of theology Godfrey of Fontaines. It analyses the nature, timing, and importance of Godfrey's response to The Mirror of Simple Souls, and argues that considering the interaction between these two figures has important consequences for our understanding of both of their careers.     

New evidence on the origins of the Latin Mirror of Simple Souls from a forgotten Paduan manuscript

This article examines an overlooked fifteenth-century document which attacks and refutes 35 extracts from a Latin copy of the condemned fourteenth-century work The Mirror of Simple Souls. It gives an overview of the document's origins, provenance and contents, and then discusses how certain omissions in the text's source citations have crucial implications for more firmly establishing the date of origin for the Latin translation of the Mirror.

Natural and supernatural virtues in the thirteenth century: the case of Marguerite Porete’s Mirror of Simple Souls

This article argues that Marguerite Porete’s seemingly unorthodox presentation of the virtues in the Mirror of Simple Souls is not a critique of scholastic learning, but in fact reflects the thirteenth-century university discourse on this topic. The rediscovery of Aristotelian thought in this period led to the redefinition of the standard Augustinian definition of virtue as being divinely infused. Philip the Chancellor’s discussion of cardinal virtues in particular prompted thinkers to distinguish between natural and supernatural virtues. It is contended that the Soul’s abandonment of the virtues should not be read as a rejection of the virtues, but rather as the affirmation that only supernatural virtues lead to God. A consideration of how Godfrey of Fontaines, theologian and reader of the Mirror, understands the virtues confirms the basic orthodoxy of Marguerite Porete’s position, lending further support to the argument that the Mirror echoes sophisticated scholastic ideas.
