Failed Censures: Ecclesiastical Regulation of Women’s Clothing in Late Medieval Italy
Churchmen in the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries tried to regulate the costume of Italian women. These efforts failed, and regulation was largely left thereafter to civic authorities.The published version was published as Chapter 3 in Medieval Clothing and Textiles 5Izbicki, Thomas M.

Western medieval legal manuscripts in the collections of the University of Pennsylvania
Western legal manuscripts of the Middle Ages in North American collections are among the least known to scholars. The University of Pennsylvania has a rich collection of these texts, several of which were in the collection of the historian Henry Charles Lea. Included are works of civil law and canon law, as well as collections of papal letters and guides to pastoral care. The descriptions of most of these manuscripts in the catalog of Norman P. Zacour and Rudolf Hirsch are perfunctory, sometimes erring or omitting valuable information. Other manuscripts were added in recent years in the Lawrence J. Schoenberg Collection. Much of this material is being added to the Franklin online catalog of the University’s libraries, but researchers frequently do not search these digital resources. This article provides more complete guidance to the University’s medieval legal manuscripts than any of the existing catalogs offers, whether in print or online. It also provides updated bibliographic information in print or online. Every manuscript has been examined by the author in situ. Among the important works represented in the collection is the Panormia (a work of canon law often attributed to Ivo of Chartres). Authors present include the curialist Thomas of Capua, canonists Petrus de Braco, William of Pagula, Bernardus Raimundi, Adam of Aldersbach, Raymond of Peñafort, and civil lawyers Baldus de Ubaldis, and Bartolus de Saxoferrato. Three of these manuscripts were owned in the past by Sir Thomas Phillipps
Forbidden Colors in the Regulation of Clerical Dress from the Fourth Lateran Council (1215) to the Time of Nicholas of Cusa (d. 1464)

Análise e crítica do conceito de ciência normal de Thomas Kuhn e sua filosofia da ciência de viés histórico
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Filosofia e Ciências Humanas. Programa de Pós-Graduação em FilosofiaA obra Estrutura das Revoluções Científicas (1962), de Thomas S. Kuhn, foi responsável por promover diversos conceitos na área da Filosofia da Ciência relacionados a uma abordagem sócio-histórica da noção de ciência. Inspirado em filósofos e historiadores da ciência da primeira metade do século XX, Thomas Kuhn reuniu uma série de formulações e reflexões anteriores para dar origem a sua própria visão de ciência, uma contrapartida da visão estritamente analítica do fazer científico. Desse resultado, tomamos a ideia kuhniana de "ciência normal" a fim de estender sua compreensão em relação a outros conceitos já bastante aventados, como "paradigma" e "revolução científica". Tendo em consideração que o próprio filósofo encarregou-se de rever suas afirmações sobre esses conceitos, interessa-nos verificar até que ponto manteve a consistência de uma ideia de ciência normal em face das principais críticas que apontam, sobretudo, para o relativismo e o aspecto meramente rotineiro que Kuhn emprestaria ao fazer científico. Finalmente, buscaremos avaliar a sua elaboração e consistência conceitual no horizonte proposto por Kuhn que consiste em uma abordagem em Filosofia da Ciência que privilegia o viés históric
