A propos de cet article

Another fine contribution to the series, Irish in Europe Monographs. Superior copy, gift-quality condition, inside and out, no discernible wear, bright and shiny dust jacket, illustrated. From the publisher's blurb, "Tracing the remarkable career (1650s-1720s) of a banished provost who became rector of a major European university, this work examines the intellectual and political networks of Irish Catholic scholars abroad. This biography follows a Dublin-born priest and scholar through a remarkable career across Ireland, France, and Italy. Educated in Nantes, he returned home to become vicar general of his native archdiocese and, in 1689, the first Catholic head of Trinity College. His tenure was brief; a clash with the king over ecclesiastical policy led to his banishment. In exile, he led a seminary in Montefiascone, implementing significant educational reforms. His subsequent career in Paris was distinguished, holding appointments as principal at the College de Navarre, professor at the prestigious College de France, and rector of the entire university. Throughout these roles, he was a staunch defender of Aristotelian philosophy against the rising influence of Cartesian thought, a position articulated in three published works. The narrative details his involvement in the Jansenist crisis, his preservation of valuable manuscripts, and his administrative and academic achievements within the Irish émigré community until his death. -- The book provides a significant case study of Irish clerical migration in the early modern period, moving beyond a simple biographical narrative. By drawing on previously underused institutional records, personal correspondence, and the subject's own philosophical publications, it reconstructs a career that bridged religious administration, university politics, and scholastic debate. This integration of intellectual history with political and institutional contexts offers a nuanced exploration of how émigré scholars navigated complex European networks. The work serves as a valuable resource for understanding the dynamics of the Irish diaspora, the resilience of Aristotelian thought." Volume contains scholarly apparatus in the form of, e.g., notes, index, and bibliography. [6], 7-160 pp.Member, I.O.B.A., C.B.A., and adherent to the highest ethical standards. Additional postage may be required for oversize or especially heavy volumes, and for sets.…

Description de la boutique

Member, I.O.B.A. (the Independent On-line Booksellers Association) "Structure" versus "Agency." A phrase that has characterized much social-scientific debate. Does “structure” (the routinized regulations of kinship and marriage, work and reproduction, of race, class and gender) determine history, or is it the “agency” of fully conscious, independently acting, individuals? Structure, Verses, Agency Books isn’t going to solve the debate, but we’ll offer you lots of all three. Versus to verses—we specialize in fine, rare and collectible books, from the fine arts to the social sciences, from poetry to photography, from literature and ethnography to fine bindings and Americana. Structure, Verses, Agency Books…
