medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture From: Richard Blum <[log in to unmask]> > I found it on Karlsruher Virtueller Katalog > http://www.ubka.uni-karlsruhe.de/kvk.html >by searching Titel: Cartulaire général de l'Ordre du Temple >several libraries in Germany yes, it's not at all an uncommon book (though i never bought and sold a copy of it). i've seen it cited often in the crusade-related 2ndary literature. but *always* with "[Marquis d']Albon" as the author --*never* with "André Levieux," which is the author's name as given in the original posting from Brother Izbicki. this one, from your Karlsruhe catalog http://tinyurl.com/7qftvtp is the longest author citation i've ever seen: "Verfasser: Albon, Guigues Alexis Marie Joseph André d'" why the publisher would, essentially, change the name of the author (or even wish to use a different part of the fellow's name, one that is *never* cited) is, as i said, quite beyond my pay-grade to understand. of course, it is an important publication of the original charters, not at all uncommon in a hard copy format, and easily available on Gallica: http://catalogue.bnf.fr/servlet/biblio?idNoeud=1&ID=36023422&SN1=0&SN2=0&host=catalogue though you can't find it there --or anywhere else-- by searching for an author named "André Levieux." perhaps we should suspend judgement and wait a century or so, see how often it appears in the 2ndary literature under the new, egalitarian author-name the reprint publisher seems to prefer. thanks, Richard. c > On Mon, Mar 5, 2012 at 5:37 PM, Christopher Crockett <[log in to unmask]> wrote: > > medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture > > > > From: Laurent Brun <[log in to unmask]> > > > >> I am no bibliothécaire, > > > > Te Absolvemus > > > >>but our mysterious "André Levieux" is actually the Marquis d'Albon: > > > >> http://cths.fr/an/prosopo.php?id=107532 > > > > > > "ALBON André Levieux marquis d', Guigues Alexis Marie Joseph André" > > > > goodness, how many names does one fellow need? > > > > ahhh, i see. > > > > his "real" name must have been "Guigues Alexis Marie Joseph André Levieux," > > styled "Marquis d'Albon." > > > > well, why didn't they just say so in the Bn catalogue (which does NOT > > recognize "André Levieux"): > > > > http://catalogue.bnf.fr/servlet/biblio?idNoeud=1&ID=36023422&SN1=0&SN2=0&host=catalogue > > > > ? > > > > i also note that the book in question here is not listed among his > > "Publications" on the Definitive Cths page --though it must surely be his only > > Claim to Fame outside du Forez, du Lyonnais, et aussi du Dauphiné. > > > > > > From: John Dillon <[log in to unmask]> > > > >> If we accept this apparently monophysite position (or is it miaphysite?), > > > > either way, this is a Family List and only the Missionary Position is allowed, > > lest the Wrath of the ListMommie be Incurred. > > > > in any event, it's a curious Marketing Strategy, to change the name of the > > author of a book which has been accepted for a century to something infinitely > > more obscure, in order to..... > > > > to *what*, eggsactly? > > > > 25+ years as a book dealer, and i never could understand the ins and outs of > > the Publishing Dodge. > > > > obviously to sell the reprint to Hapless Liberrians who don't know what > > they've already got. > > > > Brilliant. > > > > no Wonder i never got Rich in the Book Bidness. > > > > c > > > > ********************************************************************** > > To join the list, send the message: join medieval-religion YOUR NAME > > to: [log in to unmask] > > To send a message to the list, address it to: > > [log in to unmask] > > To leave the list, send the message: leave medieval-religion > > to: [log in to unmask] > > In order to report problems or to contact the list's owners, write to: > > [log in to unmask] > > For further information, visit our web site: > > http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/medieval-religion.html > > > > -- > Dr. Paul Richard Blum > ( T.J.
