Hoskin, Phillipa, ed. Robert Grosseteste as Bishop of Lincoln: the Episcopal Rolls 1235-1253. Kathleen Major Series of Medieval Records. Cambridge: Boydell and Brewer, 2015. Notes: (from abstract) This completely new edition of Grosseteste’s episcopal rolls makes it possible to take a fresh look at how he tackled the vexed issues of clerical ignorance, pluralism and non-residence in the aftermath of the reforms of the Lateran Council of 1216. They are presented here with an introductory study and elucidatory notes.

Grosseteste, Robert and Pseudo-Dionysius. Versio Caelestis Hierarchiae Pseudo-Dionysii Areopagitae Cum Scholiis Ex Graeco Sumptis Necnon Commentariis Notulisque Eiusdem Lincolniensis. Ed. Declan Lawell, James McEvoy and James Stanley McQuaid. Corpus Christianorum Continuatio Mediaevalis. Turnhout: Brepols, 2015. Notes: (from publisher) This volume contains Robert Grosseteste’s translation of the Pseudo-Dionysius’s Celestial Hierarchy. The Latin text is accompanied by Grosseteste’s translation of the Greek scholia as well as his commentary and notes made on the Celestial Hierarchy and scholia. Grosseteste’s work presents another insight into the renaissance of Dionysian studies which took place in the thirteenth century, as witnessed by commentators on the Areopagite such as Aquinas, Albert and Thomas Gallus. Grosseteste’s commentary is greatly informed by his command of the Greek language which resulted in not only a detailed philological understanding of the Greek but also in a rich interpretation of the mind of Dionysius.

Rossi, Michela and Giorgio Buratti. ‘The Architecture of Color: Number and Shapes as Measurement and Representation Tools.’ Nexus Network Journal (2015): 1-23. Notes: The paper deals with the geometrical architecture of color models. Many of these models had practical application in industry and the arts. Historically, geometry has been the principal means to explain, measure and represent the phenomenon of color. A 2-year research project on color in industrial design and architecture has led to the development of a new digital model for design applications using generative software (Grasshopper). It aims to show the historical significance of mathematical relationships between color and shape, and the actual applicability of them to digital representation in a dynamic model. The research goal is the parametric modeling of a color solid whose surfaces can be adapted to several geodesic tessellations. A regular polyhedron projected onto the sphere allows the integration of different regular and semi-regular shapes, therefore the comparison of different sets of color with analogous symmetry. The developing process of the model stresses the symmetry of the three primary colors, referring to the RGB screen in the numbers that feature the changing of the hues on the solid’s surface, however the number symmetry differs from the first shape.

Bower, Richard G., et al. ‘A Medieval Multiverse?: Mathematical Modelling of the Thirteenth Century Universe of Robert Grosseteste.’ Proceedings of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Science 470, no. 2167 (2014). Abstract: In his treatise on light, written about 1225, Robert Grosseteste describes a cosmological model in which the universe is created in a big-bang-like explosion and subsequent condensation. He postulates that the fundamental coupling of light and matter gives rises to the material body of the entire cosmos. Expansion is arrested when matter reaches a minimum density and subsequent emission of light from the outer region leads to compression and rarefaction of the inner bodily mass so as to create nine celestial spheres, with an imperfect residual core. In this paper, we reformulate the Latin description in terms of a modern mathematical model, teasing out consequences implicit in the text, but which the author would not have had the tools to explore. The equations which describe the coupling of light and matter are solved numerically, subjected to initial conditions and critical criteria consistent with the text. Formation of a universe with a non-infinite number of perfected spheres is extremely sensitive to the initial conditions, the intensity of the light and the transparency of these spheres. In this ‘medieval multiverse’, only a small range of opacity and initial density profiles leads to a stable universe with nine perfected spheres. As in current cosmological thinking, the existence of Grosseteste’s universe relies on a very special combination of fundamental parameters.

Dorandi, Tiziano and Michele Trizio. ‘Editio Princeps Del “Liber Qui Uocatur Suda” Di Roberto Grossatesta.’ Studia graeco-arabica 4 (2014): 145-90. Abstract: The Liber qui uocatur Suda in the Latin translation by Grosseteste is transmitted in an incomplete form in two manuscripts housed in London (R) and Oxford (D) respectively. The Liber results from Grosseteste’s selection and Latin translation of a few entries from the Byzantine Suda. The present text is the editio princeps of this translation. The introduction to the present edition, based on mss. R and D, lists fifteen witnesses preserving chapter 2 (the entry Ἰησοῦς in the Suda). The relationship between these witnesses and the double redaction of this chapter is also discussed. The authors investigate the composition and features of the Liber and provide the first edition of the text, accompanied by the account of the ecdotic criteria adopted.

Hoskin, Philippa. ‘Robert Grosseteste and the Simple Benefice: A Novel Solution to the Complexities of Lay Presentation.’ Journal of Medieval History (2014): 1-20. Abstract: That pastoral care was the main focus of Grosseteste’s theological work and correspondence is well established: Grosseteste is often characterised as the vehement, uncompromising promoter of the pastoral ideal in the face of strong opposition, ecclesiastical and lay. Less close attention has been paid to whether the records of his diocesan administration demonstrate the practical outworking of his pastoral theories. Although narrow in compass, his administrative rolls for the English diocese of Lincoln are not entirely sterile. They show Grosseteste experimenting with a novel form of parish organisation, using grants of simple benefices (simplex beneficium) to ensure appropriate provision for a parochial priestly function whilst offering a constructive compromise to the laity who had the right to nominate clergy for churches (the patrons) when their candidates were deemed inadmissible. The practical working out of these proposals reveals that they had both educational benefits, particularly for potential clergy, and allowed Grosseteste to focus his educational and pastoral efforts directly within the parishes.

Janet Burton, Phillipp Schofield and Björn Weiler. Cambridge: Boydell & Brewer, 2013. Abstract: Considers the various works of Grosseteste concerning kingship, the responsibilities of rulers and the nature of power, in order to assess what influence the bishop’s arguments might have exercised on his disciple, Simon de Montfort, who led a revolution against King Henry III of England in the late 1250s. This discussion explores the memorandum created for Grosseteste outlining the case he made at the papal court in 1250 against the archbishop of Canterbury, which the bishop later sent to Montfort, as well as Grosseteste’s commentary on book eight of Aristotle’s Nicomachean Ethics that inspired his case, and several of Grosseteste’s letters.’ Download from: www.academia.edu/2761254/On_Kingship_and_Tyranny_Grossetestes_Memorandum_and_its_Place_in_the_Baronial_Reform_Movement.

Abstract: The first purpose of this article is to publish for the first time a writ of King Henry III, which supplies a missing link in the negotiations leading to the 1253 confirmation of Magna Carta. The letter shows just how determined the church was to press its grievances and secure concessions beyond those found in the charter. Since the church failed to realize this ambition, it achieved far less in 1253 than it hoped. The article also sheds new light on the grievances of Robert Grosseteste, bishop of Lincoln, and shows how these were echoed in the schedules of complaint drawn up by the church.

Robert Grosseteste. Robert Grosseteste at Munich: The Abbreviatio by Frater Andreas, O.F.M., of the Commentaries by Robert Grosseteste on the Pseudo-Dionysius. Eds. James J. McEvoy and Philipp W. Rosemann. Dallas Medieval Texts and Translations 14. Leuven: Peeters, 2012. Notes: An edition, translation, and careful study of a short and hitherto completely neglected text from a manuscript in the Bayerische Staatsbibliothek, MS. clm 8827. This codex—a collection of extracts from a broad range of texts conducive to spiritual contemplation—includes an abbreviatio of Robert Grosseteste’s commentaries on the Corpus Dionysiacum. Professor McEvoy’s detailed introduction identifies the author of the abridgment as one Friar Andreas, a Franciscan of the southern German province who worked in the second quarter of the fifteenth century. McEvoy is able to identify a series of early owners of the codex, which turns out to be intimately connected with the history of the Franciscan community at Munich—indeed, with the history of Munich itself. For, as McEvoy shows, MS. clm 8827 did not remain unaffected by historical turning-points such as the secularization of 1802 and even World War II. Friar Andreas’s text is accompanied by the glosses of ‘Finehand’, a mystically inclined mind who may well have been a Franciscan nun. Finehand represents another layer in the tradition of the reception of the Pseudo-Dionysius, and of Robert Grosseteste’s commentary upon the Pseudo-Dionysius, which this volume minutely chronicles.’

Abstract: En este artículo, presentamos y examinamos algunos testimonios de la literatura latina medieval y, sobre todo, renacentista, acerca del mito de los hiperbóreos. En las épocas mencionadas, se había perdido el fundamento religioso que dicho mito había tenido en la Antigüedad (el mito de Apolo) y, por otra parte, se imaginaba que el paraíso terrenal estaba en Oriente. Sin embargo, la erudición de algunos autores, como San Isidoro de Sevilla, Godofredo de Monmouth o Eneas Silvio Piccolomini, les permitió recordar algunos bellos detalles del mito; otros, como Roger Bacon o Robert de Grosseteste, intentaron incluso justificar lo que habían dicho los antiguos sobre el clima en el país de los hiperbóreos, y Guillaume Postel intentó incluso sugerir que en dicho país pudo estar también el paraíso terrenal bíblico.

Pluralità Delle Filosofie Nel Medioevo, 289-99, ed. A. Musco. Palermo: Officina di Studi Medievali, 2012. Abstract: Il contributo inquadra la storiografia relativa alla cosiddetta metafisica della luce, di cui il trattato De luce di Roberto Grossatesta costituisce un testo fondamentale. La tesi del presente contributo è che questo originale trattato cosmologico costituì un momento centrale nella riflessione sul problema della causalità naturale, nel complesso percorso di approfondimento della fisica aristotelica condotto dal filosofo inglese e risolto con soluzioni diverse nei suoi scritti. Lo studio anticipa i risultati di ricerca alla quale l’autrice è pervenuta realizzando una edizione critica del testo, in pubblicazione alla data di consegna della presente relazione.

Lessico Intellettuale Europeo. Florence & Rome: Leo Olsckhi, 2012. Abstract: Lo studio mette in relazione la meccanica dei cieli e la dottrina acustica nel Medioevo. Partendo dalla concezione cosmologica del Timeo, esposta da Marziano Capella, Macrobio, Calcidio e Boezio, lo studio esamina come Giovanni Scoto Eriugena rielaborò la teoria absidale di Plinio in funzione armonico-musicale. L’ultima parte del contributo è centrata sulla conoscenza del De caelo aristotelico, dell’ottica e cosmologia araba e del sistema tolemaico nel tardo medioevo, focalizzandosi sullo pseudo-Adalbodo, su Roberto Grossatesta, e su testi scolastici universitari.

Atti del 39 Convegno internazionale Assisi, 6-8 ottobre 2011, 311-51. Spoleto: Fondazione Centro Italiano di Studi sull’Alto Medioevo, 2012. Abstract: ‘Partendo dalla storiografia sulla presenza di insegnamenti di filosofia naturale matematica nella scuola francescana di Oxford, lo studio evidenzia come tali discipline vennero coltivate a Oxford, ma non costituirono l’obiettivo peculiare della scuola francescana, il cui primo maestro, Roberto Grossatesta, e i suoi immediati successori furono anzitutto intenzionati ad offrire ai frati un magistero teologico finalizzato alla predicazione e al servizio di supporto nel ministero pastorale. I più noti francescani allievi di Grossatesta, cioè Adamo Marsh e Adamo di Exeter, offrono esempio di tale ideale didattico, confermandoci che lo sviluppo dei loro interessi scientifici, relativi soprattutto alla fisica della luce, appartengono agli anni che precedettero il loro ingresso nell’Ordine dei Minori’.

In contrast to other commentaries, we argue that the color space described by Grosseteste is explicitly three-dimensional. We seek the appropriate translation of Grosseteste’s key terms, making reference both to Grosseteste’s other works and the broader intellectual context of the 13th century, and to modern color spaces.

Hendrix, John. Robert Grosseteste: Philosophy of Intellect and Vision. Sankt Augustin: Academia Verlag, 2010. From publisher: Robert Grosseteste: Philosophy of Intellect and Visionfocuses on two important areas in the philosophy of Robert Grosseteste at the beginning of the thirteenth century: Philosophy of Intellect and Philosophy of Vision. These two areas of Grosseteste’s philosophy have not been thoroughly explored, nor their importance established…The book is based on readings of important manuscripts by Grosseteste: On Light; On Lines, Angles and Figures; Commentary on the Posterior Analytics; and Hexaemeron. An important part of this project is an examination of the principal sources for Grosseteste’s philosophy: the classical philosophers (Plato, Aristotle, Euclid); the Greek commentators on Aristotle (Alexander of Aphrodisias and Themistius); the Arabic commentators on Aristotle (Alfarabi, Avicenna, Averroes); and the Neoplatonic tradition, which includes the Theology of Aristotle (based on the Enneadsof Plotinus), the Liber de Causis (based on the Elements of Theology of Proclus), and the writings of Pseudo-Dionysius.

Storck. Linus Editores, 2009. Abstract: ‘The aim of this article is to help to clarify the role which Aristotle gives to definition in his theory of demonstration. I shall begin by examining his handling of the relations between definition and demonstration in chapters 8-10 of the second book of the Posterior Analytics, in order to provide an outline for an interpretation of Aristotle’s thought. Secondly, I shall examine chapter 10 in more detail, bringing out the contrast between the commentary by Averroes and that of Grosseteste. I have chosen these two commentators because, both being generally magnificent interpreters of Aristotle, as far as the nature and types of definition are concerned their understanding of Aristotle is strikingly different’.

Lizun, Józef. ‘Elementy kosmologii światła u Bartłomieja z Bolonii.’ Roczniki Filozoficzne 56, no. 2 (2008): 165-184. Abstract: ‘The paper shows the elements of the cosmology of light in Bartholomew of Bologna, the Franciscan master of theology of the thirteenth century (d. after 1294). The paradigm of light is the key concept to understand the thought of this Bologna scholar. His views were principally inspired by Robert Grosseteste’s cosmology. According to Bartholomew of Bologna, the universe is not only the Platonic-Aristotelian machina mundi with its heavenly spheres and the spheres of the four elements of the sublunary world. It is also a vision of the cosmos in accordance with traditional theology with its Empyrean or crystalline heaven. In the construction of his picture of the universe he drew on the rich tradition of the Franciscan school. The paper discusses some particular issues contained in the Tractatus de luce by Bartholomew of Bologna, the issues that were widely considered in the Middle Ages. This concerns especially the conception of the multiplication of forms (multiplicatio specierum), the affection of light on the Earth and its effects, the composition of complex and animate bodies, the structure of heavenly bodies, and the conception of the natural place. The doctrine of Bartholomew of Bologna is a meaningful example how to adjust the problems concerning the metaphysics of light derived from Neo-Platonism to the theological Christian problems’.

From abstract: ‘Comparing the use of the Fathers in this work and his metaphysic opuscules, the article states that Grosseteste has taken them into account, rewriting, in his own style, the following metaphysic-theological statements: 1. The non-eternity of the world. 2. Man as God’s image. 3. The idea of Christ’s “Mystical body” and “Christus totus”. It is also shown that these ideas are at the same time in solidarity with the spirituality cultivated by him.’

Studies in Medieval and Reformation Traditions. Leiden: Brill, 2007. Revision of part of the author’s thesis (Jena, 2003). ‘This study considers the medieval reception of Aristotle’s philosophy of marriage, which became known in the Medieval West through the thirteenth century rediscovery of the Nicomachean Ethics, the Politics and the pseudo-Aristotelian Economics, then considered a genuine work of the Stagirite. The author shows in seven case studies how medieval readers interpreted the ideas on marriage contained in these Aristotelian texts, and how they used them to construct their own, mostly theological or philosophical, discourses on marriage. At the core stands a hitherto largely neglected, unedited commentary on the pseudo-Aristotelian Economics of Bartholomew of Bruges (1309). This study is an important contribution to research on the medieval reception of Aristotle, as well as on the history of marriage.’ [Brill’s site].
