| book description |

Joachim of Fiore and the Influence of Inspiration. Essays in Memory of Marjorie E. Reeves (1905-2003) is a title that is deliberately reminiscent of the title of Marjorie Reevesâ€™ opus magnum: her book â€™The Influence of Prophecy in the Later Middle Agesâ€™ has been fundamental in the field of Joachimist studies from its publication in 1969 right up until today. The present volume is inspired both by Joachim of Fioreâ€™s lasting influence, which can be found in many places from the early thirteenth century until postmodern times, and by Marjorie Reevesâ€™s unsurpassed scholarly achievements and her inspiring personality. British, Continental and American scholars of several generations, from different academic disciplines, follow the paths she has opened, try to answer questions she was the first to ask, offer new insights and new texts in state of the art editions, immersing themselves deeply into materials Marjorie Reeves had provided us with in the field of Joachimism and the influence of prophecy. The volume is divided into three parts. In the first, the studies shed new light on different aspects of Joachim of Fioreâ€™s life and work. The second and third parts are dedicated to Joachimâ€™s afterlife -- with the contemporary and late medieval reception of Joachimâ€™s thought in the Iberian Peninsula, England, and Provence, and then on on Joachimâ€™s Wirkungsgeschichte in early modern England and Germany.
