  Rationalis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Rationalis was the Roman Empire's chief financial minister prior to the reforms of Emperor Diocletian and the Late Empire.
Among the tasks of the rationalis were the collection of all normal taxes and duties, the control of currency, and the administration of mines and mints.
After the reforms of Diocletian, the rationalis and the Rationibus were replaced by the comes sacrarum largitionum.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Fideism
These are sometimes called moderate fideists, for, though they maintained that human reason is unable to know the fundamental truths of the moral and religious orders, they admitted that, after accepting the teaching of revelation concerning them, human intelligence can demonstrate the reasonableness of such a belief.
Ubaghs, Logicae seu Philosophiae rationalis elementa, Louvain, 1860).
In addition to these systematic formulae of fideism, we find throughout the history of philosophy from the time of the sophists to the present day a fideistic attitude of mind, which became more or less conspicuous at different periods.

 COMMENTARIA IN QUATUOR LIBROS SENTENTIARUM -- Lib. I, d. 25, a. 1, q. 2: S. BONAVENTURAE
Utrum recte a Boethio definita sit persona, quod sit rationalis naturae individua substantia, et utrum haec ratio conveniat divinis personis.
Through the intention of the author, because (St. Severinus) Boethius intends to deal with the Person of Christ; but it is established, that the Person of Christ is uncreated: therefore he intends to assign a reckoning to a Divine or Uncreated Person.
in divinis, videtur: nam in Deo constat ponendum esse suppositum incommunicabilis, et hoc suppositum est substantia divina, et hoc etiam est rationalis naturae; et non convenit ei, nisi de quo dicitur persona: ergo est eius ratio, ut videtur.

 Varieties of Unreligious Experience: On the notation of speech
It is the ultimate Romantic fantasy, that man's logos was first forged in the fire of a heroic song of the passions.
Steele's Prosodia Rationalis was an oddity, turning the period English interest in prosody—metrical scansion, associated with textual criticism and the great dramatic tradition—towards the notation of music, towards the notion of speech as song.
One of the subtlest aspects of Steele's book is his observation that speech does not exactly follow the 'chromatico-diatonic' scale of sung syllables, which land on distinct tones between grave (low) and acute (high).

 Roman Emperors DIR Allectus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Soon after Constantius I Chlorus was appointed Caesar by his father-in-law Maximianus Herculius in 293, he moved his army straight way into northern Gaul where he overcame the forces of his foe the Britis h usurper Carausius at the Battle of Boulogne.
Probably soon after the fall of the city, the defeated usurper was murdered by his rationalis summae rei Allectus who then seized his throne which he held for three more years.
In 296, Constantius and his praefectus praetorio Asclepiodotus each took a fleet and headed for Britain; although some of the Caesar's fleet seems to have turned back because of inclement weather, Asclepiodotus' forces succeeded in landing on the English coast with the intention of taking London.
