Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the formation of passive infinitives in Latin, a topic of interest to both classicists and historical linguists. The author argues that the passive infinitives are derived directly from the verbal stem rather than from the active infinitive, as has been traditionally assumed. This theory is supported by evidence from the phonology, morphology, and syntax of Latin, as well as from comparative linguistics. The author also examines the relationship between the passive infinitive and the other forms of the passive voice in Latin, and discusses the significance of the passive infinitive for understanding the development of the Latin language.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the early development of Christianity in what is now southeastern Germany. The author claims that the ecclesiastical history of the region began with the arrival of Saint Hruodberht as a wandering bishop in the early 7th century. The author argues that Hruodberht was a part of a larger group of regionaries sent from Rome following the collapse of the Roman Empire in the west. In particular, the author argues that Hruodberht was responsible for the establishment of the Ecclesia Petena, which predated and eventually became the Archdiocese of Salzburg. However, the "Petena" in the name is believed to derive from the Celtic name for the Danube, and the author uses this as a tool to explore the rich tapestry of ethnic groups, languages, and political forces that shaped Bavaria's first steps in its Christian life.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the evolving electoral process of the Holy Roman Empire in the 13th and 14th centuries. Set against a backdrop of wider debates on the nature of leadership and the tension between dynastic and elective principles in medieval society, this study questions the traditional narrative with new critical analysis of historical sources. The author provides fresh insights into the roles of key individuals, such as King Rudolf of Habsburg, in shaping the development of the electoral system. Using original source material, the author also challenges the reliability of the Styrian rhyming chronicle, a primary source often used to depict the events of the period. The book ultimately argues that the election of Adolf of Nassau was not the result of a carefully planned conspiracy, but rather emerged from complex political dynamics that are only fully revealed through a meticulous reading of the historical record. It sheds new light on the interplay of ambition, negotiation, and compromise that shaped the political landscape of the medieval Empire.
