Book excerpt: Excerpt from Antonius Rhetor on Versification: A Dissertation The greatest improbability of all, as Grimme (zdmg, XLVII, 278) has pointed out, lies in the further assumption that in strophes com posed of dissimilar verses all must. Be read after the manner estab lished by the first verse. A name, which is scarcely ever, or rather never, mentioned in such a survey as this, is that Of K. Schlottmann. The reason for this is twofold. First and foremost, his work is hidden away in the older volumes of the zdmg (xxxii, 187 - 97 and 767 f.; XXXIII, 252 - 91, more especially 279 - 84) under the title Zur semitischen Epigraphik, with the subtitle in Vol. XXXIII, Nebst Unter suchungen uber die verschiedenen Grundprinzipien der Metrik im Arabischen, Hebraischen und Aramaischen. Secondly, the great, but rather embittered De Lagarde overspread it with scathing criticism, which was meant to annihilate, but which, as is now per fectly clear, in this as in other cases, went beyond De Lagarde's evidence. In spite of this, Schlottmann's work stands forth today as one Of the most Significant expositions (in the writer's Opinion the best to date) of the fundamental principles of Aramaic and in par ticular of Syriac prosody. Assuming as proved (as well he might) the counting of syllables with disregard of their quantity and extensive use of parallelismus membrorum, he makes the observation that under the circumstances, even with the aid Of music, the use of the accent was indispensable to the production of a rhythmic movement. Touching briefly upon similar phenomena in byzantine-greek and Bactrian poetry, he enters more extensively upon a comparison of Aramaic with French prosody. Neither the French nor the Syriac lays nearly as much stress upon accent as do the Germanic peoples. Both French and Syriac count syllables. Both French and Syriac are largely, if not wholly, limited to quasi - iambic and trochaic rhythms and experience serious, if not insurmountable, difficulties in the creation of anapaests and dactyls. French (and Syriac. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Stanzaic Syntax in the Madrashe of Ephrem the Syrian written by Paul S. Stevenson and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-11-02 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Stanzaic Syntax in the Madrashe of Ephrem the Syrian, which focuses on madrāšê V and VI in the Paradise cycle, Paul S. Stevenson looks at Ephrem’s poetic art from the point of view of a linguist. This study goes beyond the traditional levels of analysis, the clause and the sentence, and examines the structure of whole stanzas as units. The result is a surprisingly rich tapestry of syntactic patterning, which can justly be considered the key to Ephrem’s prosody. The driving force behind Ephrem’s poetry turns out not to be meter or sound play, but a variety of syntactic templates, which include even vertical patterning of constituents.

This book was released on 2018-07-23 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The nine contributions in The Trade in Papers Marked with non-Latin Characters initiated by Anne Regourd (ed.) approach global history through the paper trade. They cover, in addition to a paper used in 14th C Persia, papers used in Africa (Ethiopia, Nigeria, Tunisia) and Asia (the Ottoman Levant, Mecca, Persia, Russia, and Yemen) during the 19th-20th C. Primarily based on paper examination and quantitative data, the book invites us to treat papers as a source, and provides tools to determine the production of manuscripts in space and time for the area of interest. This methodology offers new insights on the competition between suppliers to the various markets particularly in respect of the emergence of import-export trading companies. Le commerce des papiers à marques à caractères non-latins, dont Anne Regourd (éd.) est à l'initiative, a pour projet de traiter d'histoire globale par le commerce du papier. Les neuf contributions réunies ici font apparaître un premier exemple de ce papier, persan, dès le xive s. sous les Moẓaffarides et, principalement, des papiers utilisés en Afrique (Éthiopie, Nigéria, Tunisie) et en Asie (Levant ottoman, La Mecque, Perse, Russie et Yémen), aux xixe et xxe s. S'appuyant sur l'observation des papiers et des données quantitatives, le livre invite à prendre le support de l'écrit comme source de l'histoire du commerce et donne des instruments pour déterminer la production de manuscrits dans l'espace et le temps pour une aire définie. Cette méthode renouvelle notre connaissance de l'approvisionnement des marchés, avec, en particulier, l'apparition de compagnies d'import-export. Contributors are: Michaelle Biddle, Evyn Kropf, Anne Regourd, Francis Richard, Alice Shafi-Leblanc, Jan Just Witkam, Olga Yastrebova. Foreword by Anna-Grethe Rischel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The emergence of a literature in any language is an improbable and complex historical achievement. In fact, many known languages throughout history did not develop writing, let alone a literature. This book, a collectively written early history of different literary traditions across the globe and through time, presents a global, comparative account of literary origins spanning the Mediterranean, Asia, Europe, Africa, and the Americas. Seventeen chapters, each written by a scholar with expertise in a particular language and literature, trace the creation of writing and its interaction with oral practices, the rise of print circulation, the passage from sacred to secular writing and reading practices, the use of cultural models, the role of translation, and related issues as they apply to the emergence of literature. The contributions explore the historical context as well as the practices, technologies, and institutions that encouraged the emergence of distinct literatures, from classical Chinese and the resultant establishment of Japanese and Korean traditions, to the advent of Greek, Hebrew, Arabic, and other literatures of the Mediterranean; the birth of European vernaculars against the cosmopolitan backdrop of post-classical Latin; and the later development of African American and Latin American literatures under conditions of colonial expansion and racial oppression. The volume is designed to enable readers to better understand the similarities as well as the differences in the origins of major and enduring literatures across time"--
