Download or read book The Letter of Aristeas written by Benjamin G. Wright and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-09-25 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Letter of Aristeas has been an object modern scholarly interest since the seventeenth century. It is best known for containing the earliest version of the translation of the Hebrew Law into Greek, and this story accounts for much of the scholarly attention paid to the work. Yet, this legend only takes up a small percentage of the work. Looking at Aristeas as a whole, the work reveals an author who has acquired a Greek education and employs both Jewish and Greek sources in his work, and he has produced a Greek book. Even though Aristeas has garnered scholarly attention, no fully fledged commentary has been written on it. The works of R. Tramontano, M. Hadas and others, often referred to as commentaries, only contain text and annotated notes. This volume fills the gap in the scholarship on Aristeas by providing a full, paragraph-by-paragraph commentary, containing a new translation, text-critical notes, general commentary, and notes on specific words, phrases and ideas.

Book Aristeas to Philocrates

    Book Details:
  • Author : Moses Hadas
  • Publisher : Wipf and Stock Publishers
  • Release : 2007-07-01
  • ISBN : 1556355068
  • Pages : 245 pages

Download or read book Aristeas to Philocrates written by Moses Hadas and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2007-07-01 with total page 245 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work commonly known as the Letter of Aristeas presents an account of the genesis of the Septuagint, and incidentally reflects currents of religious thought at a significant period of history. The book is a work of conscious literary art, composed according to the canons of the Greek schools, and the exaggerations and inaccuracies that have marred its credit in the past are marks not of the author's ignorance or bad faith but of the genre to which it belongs. Considered against its historical and intellectual background, Aristeas to Philocrates is a document of first-class importance and a unique specimen of its kind in the literature of the period. Professor Hadas's edition studies the book from the point of view of its literary as well as religious affinities and significance. His introduction fixes the place of the book in the history of Greek literature as well as of the religious development of the Jews, and his running commentary similarly illustrates the text from both points of view. The translation is in straightforward English. The Greek text is that of H. St. J. Thackeray and the brief critical notes that accompany it are by Professor Hadas.

Book The Meaning of the Letter of Aristeas

Download or read book The Meaning of the Letter of Aristeas written by Ekaterina Matusova and published by Vandenhoeck & Ruprecht. This book was released on 2015-05-20 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ekaterin Matusova offers a new approach to the old problems of interpretation of the "Letter of Aristeas".Chapter 1 deals with the question of the structure of the narrative. Matusova argues that at the time of Aristeas compositions of the kind of the Reworked Pentateuch, or Rewritten Bible were circulating in Egypt in parallel with the LXX and were a source of interpretations of the Hebrew text different from the LXX and of specific combinations of subjects popular in Second Temple Judaism. In particular, Matusova further argues that the leading principle of the composition of the Letter is that of the Reworked Deuteronomy, where subjects referring to the idea of following the Law among the gentiles were grouped together. The analysis is based on a broad circle of Jewish sources, including Philo of Alexandria and documents from the Qumran library. The principle of the composition discovered in this part of the study is referred to as the Jewish paradigm.Chapter 2 offers a new interpretation of the frame story in the narrative, i.e. of the story of the translation in the strict sense. Matusova shows that two paradigms are skilfully combined in this split story: the Jewish one, based on the Bible, and the Greek one, which involves Greek grammatical theory. She further argues that the story, when read in terms of Greek grammar, turns out to be a consistent story not of the translation, but of the correction of the LXX, which is important for our understanding of the early history of the translation. The analysis involves extensive excurses into Greek grammatical theory, including a discussion of Aristotle, Dionysius Thrax and other Hellenistic grammarians.In Chapter 3 Matusova tries to find the reason for the combination of these two paradigms, namely the Jewish biblical paradigm and the Greek grammatical ones, and to interpret their interconnected meaning, by placing it in the broad historical context of the Ptolemaic state

Book excerpt: Courage for Survival is the extraordinary story of a young girl born in the peaceful mountains of the unspoiled island of Crete. Aristea Pettis invites us into her idyllic childhood, documenting daily life in the rural village: tales of colorful church processions, long treks through the rugged mountains, feasts, and women coming together to embroider by the faint light of oil-soaked wicks. In 1941 Aristea sat atop a mountain with her father and watched German planes fly over Crete, dropping paratroopers as they went. Her country and life as she knew it were torn apart. She brings to life a personal account of twentieth century history. Experience the terror, deprivation, and struggle for survival of a wartime family through the eyes of a remarkable young woman.
