TOP PAPERS FROM YOUR NEWSFEED Takis Katsafados An arithmetic Method for evaluating the magnitude of Medieval Byzantine settlements This article summarizes the results of a study (to be published in the near future), pertaining to an arithmetic method for evaluating the magnitude of medieval byzantine settlements (9th to 15th c.).

X, 2015, 1, pp. 41-60 Following the chronicle of Giovanni Villani, one can easily understand the extent of the disaster caused by the flood of 1333, compared to the deluge and judged one turning point for the city.

This article argues that Malory undermines paradigms of divine, sovereign, and common law justice while suggesting embodied justice as a viable alternative that depends upon the agency of the body in debate. It explores the implications for women who gain greater access to judicial mechanisms and rejection of prescriptive law.
