A hexametrical, anonymous fragment of the didactic poem written in Greek, usually called De viribus herbarum ( II or III AD), contains a magic-medicinal lore concerning 16 plants. Almost each of the herbs has its divine patron who gathered it for the first time or discoverd — which in fact means “established” — its properties. That is the reason of the plants’ miraculous power. Each description of the herb contains common elements: the best time of gathering, name(s) of the plant, a mythical history concerning it, its divine patron(s) and its magic-medicinal powers. The poetical fragment offers also a glimpse into fears of the ancient Greeks concerning believes in the evil eye and harmful demons. It provides many descriptions of medical or homeopathic treatments as well.

A bare individual was conceived by Tichy as an individual such as if the property the individual instantiates is non-trivial (contingent), it is possible for the individual to lack it (and still be the same individual); and for any trivial property (i.e. property with constant extension) that it cannot lack this kind of property. The exact readings of Tichy's original formulations of bare individuals are subjected to a detailed analysis to reveal that any of them is refutable by means of Cmorejian objection that there exist contingent properties which are partly essential (i.e. there exists an individual which cannot lack such property). To avoid such (valid) objection, the present paper attempts to rebuild Tichy's definitions into viable ones.

Roman Ingarden believed that the ontological status of properties cannot be exhausted by the claim that properties are non-independent and fulfill the formal function of “belonging to” some object. To explain this he used the metaphor that “properties enter into the account of an object”, a version of the scholastic saying that “accidentia non sunt entia sed entis”. I argue that properties do not have their own qualitative content. For example, in the case of a bar of steel which has property of being hard, the quality of “hardness” does not inhere immediately in this property and then indirectly in the bar, but inheres directly in the bar. The property in question does not have hardness on its own. This seems trivial but it needs to be emphasized because some philosophers treat properties as objects, even if they claim that properties cannot exist without objects. The thesis of the formal heteronomy of properties consists just in this view: properties have no matter on their own. The second part of the article is devoted to the saying “accidentis esse est inesse”. I argue for a strict connection between the thesis that properties exist because of the object’s existence and the thesis of formal heteronomy, and I use the latter to argue against bundle theories of object.

A monastery in present-day Hronský Beňadik was one of wealthy ecclesiastical institutions in the medieval Hungarian Kingdom. Hungarian King Géza I (1074 – 1077) was the founder of the monastery. The paper is focused on the abbey estates which are recorded in the founding charter dated 1075 and the charter of Pope Innocent III (1198 – 1216) dated 1209. Both charters mention 25 settlements and "terra Sugolgi" with the St. Martin's Chapel in Dvory nad Žitavou. Some estates are recorded only in one of the charters.
