Description

Between 1472 and 1497, the hermitage of Santa Maria de Montserrat underwent a series of reforms led by Cardinal Giuliano della Rovere and King Fernando II de Aragon. The hermits greeted these reforms with resistance, seeing the reformers' efforts as an infringement on their traditional constitutions and devotional practices. In particular, the hermits rebelled against the notion that the Monastery of Santa Maria de Montserrat had the right to dictate the internal affairs of the community by placing them under the religious movement of Observantinism. As a result, the king, cardinal, and hermits engaged in a constitutional battle balancing the rights of the hermits and the rights of the monks, ultimately leading to the incorporation of the eremitic community into the monastery. The reformers, in their efforts to maintain peace, implemented an educational reform among the hermits to mollify the hermits' concerns and educate them in Observantinism. To this end, the reformers Bernat Boyl and Garcia Jimenez de Cisneros introduced Isaac of Nineveh's De religione as a guide to the anchoritic life. Isaac of Nineveh, however, became a substitute for the reformers' authority, displacing the reform onto a venerated abba and not the monks of Montserrat. Both Boyl and Jimenez de Cisneros saw bilingual manuscripts and printed editions, in addition to their format and decoration, as a textual source to create a unified religious community based upon the common reading of a uniform text.

Professional Linux kernel architecture ''Wrox programmer to programmer''--Cover. - ''What you are reading right now is the result of an evolution over more than seven years: After two years of writing, the first edition was published in German by Carl Hanser Verlag in 2003. It then described kernel 2.6.0. The test was used as a basis for the low-level design documentation for the EAL4+ security evaluation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, requiring to update it to kernel 2.6.18 (if the EAL acronym does not mean anything to you, then Wikipedia is once more your friend). Hewlett-Packard sponsored the translation into English and has, thankfully, granted the rights to publish the result. Updates to kernel 2.6.24 were then performed specifically for this book''--P. ix
