In the present work we will try to trace the set of categorical tools that contributed to the early definition of the discipline of art criticism. At this point, the key concept that we are interested in recomposing is that of mimesis and representation, a fundamental theoretical space in the treatment of the problems of art in antiquity and in medieval philosophy. In principle, we will approach the problem from three spaces of the production of meaning: the theory of knowledge, the theory of language and the ethicalpolitical theory. In a second instance we will try to jointly address the dialogue that is established between these three spaces of knowledge to make visible the type of influence that philosophy has exerted on criticism and literary theory.

This article presents the most significant points of the talk given as part of the workshop New approaches in the study of medieval settlement (5th-15th centuries AD). This intervention presented the main assumptions and techniques that were being applied to the study of funerary archaeological remains in Galicia between the 4th and 10th centuries AD. This research is the result of the author's actual PhD dissertation. In this case, we propose to approach this research from the perspectives of the Archaeology of Death and the Landscape Archaeology. The merge of both currents and the creation of an exhaustive ad hoc database allow us to create a diachronic and spatial discourse in which we can understand the main morphological transformations and how these community spaces function within a specific territory.

The article "Introduction. New approaches in the study of medieval settlement in the Iberian Peninsula" summarizes the advances in research on medieval settlement in the Iberian Peninsula. It highlights the growing interest in the study of medieval landscapes and the theoretical and methodological renewal that has allowed the topic to be approached from new perspectives. Research groups and projects in Spain and Portugal are mentioned, as well as the importance of junior researchers in generating new ideas. The article is part of a special issue of the journal Cuadernos de Arqueología from the University of Navarra, which presents the latest research in the field of medieval settlement in the Iberian Peninsula. Different approaches and techniques are addressed, such as funerary archaeology, landscape archaeology, and the use of geographic information systems (GIS). Case studies in different geographical regions are analyzed, and new ways of treating and managing archaeological data are proposed. The objective is to promote research and collaboration among researchers from different regions. [Extracted from the article]

The studies on medieval pottery in Navarra have carried out a remarkable development after the second half of the Twentieth century. Nowadays a significant number of surveys enable researchers to thoroughly monitor the evolution of such discipline. Due to this, a critical analysis becomes necessary based on geographic, chronologic and technical criteria in order to stablish a reference framework. On the other hand, it may be convenient to discuss the new methodologies that Will set the path in the decades to come. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Discoid stelae constitute a powerful focus of interest within the Archeology of Death. This is because they represent an element of undoubted decorative, allegorical and referential character. However, the fact that they appear, in most cases, outside their original context has been detracting from them. This paper presents the study of a discoid stela located "in situ" that allows us to relate the place of origin of others reinstalled in structures of the same municipality, which permits us to identify their original location and to establish a reliable chronology for them.

The study of medieval Hispanic Jewish communities from the archaeological record dates back to the origins of medieval archaeology in Spain, in the 18th century. However, the development of a medieval archaeology of Judaism in Spain (a "medieval archaeology of Sepharad") has been very limited, having focused almost exclusively on epigraphy, the architectural or artistic analysis of religious buildings (synagogues and ritual baths or mikva'ot) and the study of cemeteries. Given the difficulties in characterizing the material culture of Hispanic Jewish communities (if that were possible) and to confirm the presence of Jewish population in medieval archaeological contexts, two strategies of research are proposed. First, identifying fragments of ceramic Hanukkah oil lamps in domestic contexts. Second, the development of zooarchaeological analysis that enable the identification of diets and alimentary practices typical of Jewish populations (Shechita and Kashrut). To this end, the successful results of the implementation of both strategies in some Spanish archaeological sites in recent years, especially in the late medieval Jewish quarter of Lorca Castle (Murcia), are exposed.

This article discusses the medieval Jewish cemetery near the La Encarnación convent, which is located in Ávila, Spain. The author comments on the social and cultural history of the Jewish population in Spain during the Middle Ages and describes the archaeological excavation projects conducted in the region of Ávila that uncovered information related to Jewish communities in Spain at the time. The history of the Carmelite convent of La Encarnación and an analysis of the burial traditions of the Jewish community in the region is also explored.

The article presents archaeological, documentary and epigraphic evidence of the 14th century synagogue in Molina, Kingdom of Aragon (Spain). The author describes the evidence found during the excavation at the site known as the Castil de Judíos, commenting on the Hebrew epigraphic fragments found at the site and on the style and dating of the architectural remains. He cites documentary sources which provide information about the Aljama (Jewish community) in Molina during the 13th and 14th centuries.

Traditionally, the study of texts has been privileged over archaeology in medieval historiography. However, during the last twenty years, the theoretic and methodological contribution of medieval archaeologists, as well as the results of their research, has lead to a new understanding of the relation between the two disciplines, which also implies the questioning of the old historiographical thesis. This paper will expose the problems that the lack of a common theoretical frame poses in attempt to find the links that could enable us to produce a unitary historical knowledge. We will consider some of the aspects of the debate in the light of our own research work: the study of space and power in the County of Monzón, and the rural settlement of the Valle del Río Almar between the Second Iron Age and the Early Middle Ages.

The article presents and discusses archaeological findings from an early Medieval burial site (necropolis) at Cerro de la Horca, in Toledo, Spain. The author describes the excavations, points out the types of interrment discovered and comments on the interpretive difficulties regarding the religious affiliation of the burials. He notes the site's chronology, the phases of its use and its familial organization. Based on the findings, the author offers some initial considerations regarding the funerary rituals practiced at the site.
