Book excerpt: Excerpt from Catalogue of the Hebrew and Samaritan Manuscripts in the British Museum, Vol. 2 The arrangement of the two longer series of mss. Described in this volume (pp. 51 - 196, 197 - 487) will enable the student to obtain a clear view of any section in which he may be specially interested. In the case of Commentaries, legal Compendia, &c., the dates of authorship have been taken as a guide in the arrangement of the mss. The earlier Midrashim follow the order of the Biblical Books to which they belong, and Talmudical mss. Are arranged in the usual order of tractates. In the descriptions of the Liturgies one or more representative codices are placed at the head of their respective sections or sub sections, and the mss. That follow are, whenever needful, compared with these standard types. In the enumeration of the hymns contained in the liturgical codices care has been taken to give the direct evidence as to authorship, occasion of use, 850 afforded by the headings or marginal notes. When the ms. Itself contains no direct evidence on these points, a distinction has been made between the pieces given in Zunz, Literaturgeschichte der Synagogalen Poesie, and those not mentioned in that work. In the first case only variations from the known forms of the pieces have, as a rule, been noticed, but in the last an effort has been made to ascertain the authorship by means of the acrostics or other literary evidence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to a longstanding interpretation, book religions are agents of textuality and logocentrism. This volume inverts the traditional perspective: its focus is on the strong dependency between scripture and aesthetics, holy books and material artworks, sacred texts and ritual performances. The contributions, written by a group of international specialists in Western, Byzantine, Islamic and Jewish Art, are committed to a comparative and transcultural approach. The authors reflect upon the different strategies of »clothing« sacred texts with precious materials and elaborate forms. They show how the pretypographic cultures of the Middle Ages used book ornaments as media for building a close relation between the divine words and their human audience. By exploring how art shapes the religious practice of books, and how the religious use of books shapes the evolution of artistic practices this book contributes to a new understanding of the deep nexus between sacred scripture and art.

Download or read book Athanasius Kircher written by Paula Findlen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-08-02 with total page 482 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 2004.Athanasius Kircher (1602-1680) -- German Jesuit, occultist, polymath - was one of most curious figures in the history of science. He dabbled in all the mysteries of his time: the heavenly bodies, sound amplification, museology, botany, Asian languages, the pyramids of Egypt -- almost anything incompletely understood. Kircher coined the term electromagnetism, printed Sanskrit for the first time in a Western book, and built a famous museum collection. His wild, beautifully illustrated books are sometimes visionary, frequently wrong, and yet compelling documents in the history of ideas. They are being rediscovered in our own time. This volume contains new essays on Kircher and his world by leading historians and historians of science, including Stephen Jay Gould, Ingrid Rowland, Anthony Grafton, Daniel Stoltzenberg, Paula Findlen, and Barbara Stafford.-
