Abstract:
If Alfonso de Toledo's encyclopedia of knowledge is situated within the encyclopedic tradition, the Invencionario, 1474, is studied, highlighting the break it made with respect to the medieval order and its encyclopedias, a break which announced a new ordering of knowledge and which manifests a change of age: the transition from the Middle Ages to the Renaissance.

Abstract:
This paper considers the implications of Burton's "encyclopedism" defined here as the condition of a work where writing is a form of therapy compelled by disease. The notion of encyclopedism suggests the ways in which the encyclopedia serves as a compendious alter-ego to Burton's book. Reading Anatomy in the context of an encyclopedic tradition transformed by Burton's insistence that his writing is a "foolish labor" intended to ward off melancholy reminds us how fully he reimagines the Renaissance aesthetic of scholarly exhaustion. In this regard, Burtonian anatomy may be said to offer an alternative, playful and subversive, to the encyclopedic claims of Baconian instauration.

Abstract:
This paper presents a description and analysis of the demography of the community of notable architects from the Renaissance to the present day. The comprehensive Macmillan Encyclopedia of Architects is used as the data source. As a historical description, the paper provides data on the growth in numbers and national composition of the architects included in the Encyclopedia; their activities outside architecture; their linkages, in the form of master-pupil and collegial relationships; and the pattern of their productivity through life. It shows unexpected patterns in the historical growth of this community. These are explained as the result of some simple but deep sociological properties.

This latest two-volume set from Greenwood’s Daily Life Encyclopedia series provides an overview of everyday life and society in Italy during the Renaissance period. After the preface, a brief introductory essay, and chronology, volume 1 contains thematic sections spanning “Arts” to “Food and Drink.” The second volume picks up at “Housing and Community” and concludes with “Science and Technology.” Sections begin with a broad overview (“Introduction”) and are then broken down into alphabetical sub-topical entries offering more nuanced explorations of each. The section “Family and Gender,” for example, contains entries such as “Childhood,” “Espousal and Wedding,” “Old Age,” and “Siblings.” Further readings suggestions, most of which are books, accompany each entry.

Abstract:
This article describes critiques on orientalism as well as appreciates orientalist works which have positive values in Islamic studies that requires “reassessment”. This is because orientalism is a distinctive discipline that has a strong historical value between the West and the East (Islam) after the medieval European renaissance. This discipline was initially used as a Western political tool to exploit the East—both aggression and imperialism. However this discipline deserves careful attention by removing prejudices-geopolitical and historical revenge in the orientalists’ objective judgments. The work produced by such orientalists cannot be solely underestimated. Some orientalists merely using a scientific or semi-scientific approach have continuously produced “magnum opus” and contributed to the development of Islamic studies such as Hadith index, Quranic dictionary, and Encyclopedia of Islam.

André, Marie-Françoise. "Nicolas Bérauld, laissé pour compte des « Bonnes Lettres ». Monographie sur l’humaniste orléanais Nicolas Bérauld (c. 1470-c. 1555)." Thesis, Paris 4, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011PA040122.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette monographie a pour objectif de mettre en lumière la contribution fondamentale que Nicolas Bérauld (c. 1470-c. 1550), humaniste orléanais du début du XVIe siècle, apporta à la mise en place d’un humanisme spécifiquement français. Professeur, éditeur, imprimeur, libraire, juriste et écrivain à ses heures, cet humaniste polyvalent, très réputé à son époque, est aujourd’hui tombé dans l’oubli : il est, comme l'indique le titre de cet ouvrage, un laissé pour compte des « Bonnes Lettres » à qui il convient de rendre la place qu’il mérite. Son inlassable activité l’amena à intervenir dans de nombreux domaines. Il conduisit une réflexion approfondie sur les langues, puisqu’il s’intéressa à l’improvisation en latin et contribua à l’essor du grec, encore bien peu étudié au début du XVIe siècle. Il prit pour modèle de ses activités la figure du grammaticus au sens où l’entend Quintilien dans son Institution oratoire, à la fois encyclopédiste, éditeur, commentateur et professeur. Ce grammaticus polyvalent avait vocation à s’impliquer dans tous les domaines. Bérauld réfléchit donc aussi à la dimension esthétique et créatrice de la langue, à sa « poïétique », et prit position dans les grands débats idéologiques (politique, droit, religion) qui agitèrent son époque. L’étude de l’itinéraire de cet humble professeur est aussi un hommage rendu aux débuts de l’humanisme éclipsés par l’époque brillante des Lecteurs royaux et de la Pléiade
This monography intends to highlight the fundamental contribution which was brought by Nicolas Bérauld (c. 1470- c. 1550), humanist born in Orleans at the beginning of the XVIth century, for the benefit of the establishment of a specific french humanism. Teacher, publisher, printer, librarian, jurist and even writer, this multitalented humanist, very famous during his time, has fallen in oblivion nowadays: he is, as the title of this work points it off, a laissé pour compte des « Bonnes Lettres » who needs to get back the appreciation he deserves. He relentlessly intervened in many fields of activity. He brought on a deep thinking about languages, as he was interested in latin improvisation and contributed to the rise of greek, still very little studied at the beginning of the XVIth century. The model of the grammaticus inspired his activities, exactly the way Quintilian figured it in his Institutio Oratoria, which means that he could be at the same time encyclopaedist, publisher, commentator and teacher. This versatile grammaticus was bound to tangle with every field of his time knowledge. This made Bérauld either to pay attention to the aesthetic and creative dimension of language, its « poïetic », or to get involved into the great ideological debates which stired up his time (as for politics, law or religion). To study the career of this humble teacher is also a way to pay tribute to the early stage of humanism, more or less put in the shade by the bright time of the Royal Lectors and of the Pleiade

Johannes Heinrich Alsted (1588-1638), a Calvinist scholar from Hesse, which at that time was a part of the Holy Roman Empire was the reputed author of Encyclopaedia Septem Tomis Reserata. Due to the singular historical context within which his life and works developed, he was taught by several important theologians, philosophers, linguists and mathematicians belonging with the German-Calvinist contemporary network. Nevertheless, he appealed to the Aristotelian tradition, Raymond Lull and Petrus Ramus as main sources to build his own method for a systematic approach to knowledge. Since his main concern was with pedagogy, Alsted s method sought to make learning easier, and for this purpose he appealed to the concept of encyclopedia. The present study analyzes the multiple sources employed by Alsted to elaborate a Tree of Knowledge of his own, and the fundamental epistemic and methodological principles that underpin a project that culminated in the renowned Encyclopaedia. Special attention was paid to the section on music taken as study case, in order to understand better the internal structure as well as the historical-scientifically determinants of this extraordinary work
Johannes Heinrich Alsted (1588-1638), um estudioso calvinista de Hesse, situado no então Sacro Império Germânico, é o reconhecido autor de Encyclopaedia Septem Tomis Reserata. Em função do peculiar contexto histórico em que se desenvolveu sua vida e sua obra, foi discípulo de importantes teólogos, filósofos, linguistas e matemáticos da rede germânico-calvinista da época. Apesar disso, para a construção de um método próprio de abordar o saber de modo sistemático, tomou como suas principais fontes obras aristotélicas, assim como as de Raimundo Lullio e de Petrus Ramus. Tendo a pedagogia como sua meta principal, o método desenvolvido por Alsted visava facilitar o aprendizado e, para tanto, valeu-se do conceito de enciclopédia. O presente estudo busca analisar as múltiplas fontes utilizadas por Alsted na elaboração da sua própria árvore do conhecimento , assim como os princípios epistêmicos e metodológicos que subjazem esse projeto, o qual culmina na célebre Encyclopaedia. Destaque especial foi dado à música, enquanto estudo de caso, de maneira a compreender melhor tanto a estrutura interna, quanto as motivações histórico-científicas dessa obra magna

Abstract My thesis mainly discussed a delicate relationship between the status ofpainting and concept of art.During the Middle age,painting was viewed as theMechanical arts which opposed to the Liberal arts. Through the humanistic discourse on Renaissance,the status of painting was clined to the liberal artsgraually. Up to 17th century,French Academy accepted painting as one of theliberal arts.After fifty years,painting was transferred to be the Fine arts.Asan obervation on this process, this thesis doesn't make any conlcusion,but choose certain method and data properly during my discussion. This thesis os divided into three chapters in accordance with the development on the status of painting.The first chapter explains how humanism in Renaissan-ce, constructed the developmental foundation of discourse on painting.According to A.Chastel's analysis,it indicates the domain of rhetoric and concept of drawing constructed the condition of painting which moves it's placeto the liberal arts through rational dicipline. I select some viewpoints from C.Le Brun, A.Felibien, R. de Piles to make a comparison with each other.Besides,the system of knowledge charged and a lot of new knowledge was produced at the same time.For dealing with this phenomenon, systematization was created next century. In 18th century, painting transferred from liberal arts to fine arts.Thereforethe third chapter,the most important part in this thesis,expresses the develop-ment after painting has been included as the fine arts.In this chapter,I take the Encyclopedia(1750-1780)as my research material, which edited by D.Diderot.In the begining, I consider the System of Human Knowledge of Encyclopedia which presented the framework of systematization.Systematization is considered asituation that formulated a new system which mix the new and the old knowledge.The contributor wrote those articles on the fine arts,quoted the Empiricism as their basic for discussion which resulted in painting got higher status thanthe other arts in the fine arts.From maintaining the old system,the contributorsdidn't complete the function of systematization. D. Diderot, the main editor of Encyclopedia and the contributor of the article ,attempted to achieve this object. He tried to mix the new and the old knowledges, and this attitudeimplied on his viewpoints of traditional dialectic debate between themechanical arts and the liberal srts. In the article , he distillsan abstract concept from the crafts (arts) and manufactures. And he emphasized on the importance of the mechanical arts. When he located paintingon the sphere of the mechanical arts, he didn't look down upon it. On the contrary, he possessed more objective attitude on painting. The status of painting tended to be stable on the 18th century.
