Book Via Augustini  Augustine in the later Middle Ages  Renaissance and Reformation

Download or read book Via Augustini Augustine in the later Middle Ages Renaissance and Reformation written by Heiko A. Oberman and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-10-11 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For forty years Damasus Trapp has been the foremost scholar of late medieval Augustinianism. His work has made a major contribution to our understanding of Augustine's influence on intellectual life of Europe from the 14th to the 16th century. In the present volume the heritage of Augustine in the later Middle Ages, Renaissance, and Reformation is illustrated by contributions from leading scholars in the field, which range from academic disputation at Oxford in the early 14th century, to the world of John Calvin in the 16th century. It is the diversity of the Augustinian tradition that is documented here. The authors of the articles collected in this volume have investigated anew such well known sources as Gregory of Rimini's Sentences Commentary and Johannes von Staupitz's sermons. In addition, they have brought to light previously unknown works such as Antonius Rampegolus' Figurae Bibliorum and an anonymous Sermo de Antichristo. In this collection the richness of the Augustinian tradition in the later Middle Ages, Renaissance, and Reformation appears, a broad via Augustini, which Damasus Trapp has done so much to illuminate. This Festschrift is a testimony to the continuous influence and inspiration of his contribution.

Book Semiotics

Download or read book Semiotics written by Roland Posner and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2004 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This series of HANDBOOKS OF LINGUISTICS AND COMMUNICATION SCIENCE is designed to illuminate a field which not only includes general linguistics and the study of linguistics as applied to specific languages, but also covers those more recent areas which have developed from the increasing body of research into the manifold forms of communicative action and interaction. For "classic" linguistics there appears to be a need for a review of the state of the art which will provide a reference base for the rapid advances in research undertaken from a variety of theoretical standpoints, while in the more recent branches of communication science the handbooks will give researchers both an verview and orientation. To attain these objectives, the series will aim for a standard comparable to that of the leading handbooks in other disciplines, and to this end will strive for comprehensiveness, theoretical explicitness, reliable documentation of data and findings, and up-to-date methodology. The editors, both of the series and of the individual volumes, and the individual contributors, are committed to this aim. The languages of publication are English, German, and French. The main aim of the series is to provide an appropriate account of the state of the art in the various areas of linguistics and communication science covered by each of the various handbooks; however no inflexible pre-set limits will be imposed on the scope of each volume. The series is open-ended, and can thus take account of further developments in the field. This conception, coupled with the necessity of allowing adequate time for each volume to be prepared with the necessary care, means that there is no set time-table for the publication of the whole series. Each volume will be a self-contained work, complete in itself. The order in which the handbooks are published does not imply any rank ordering, but is determined by the way in which the series is organized; the editor of the whole series enlist a competent editor for each individual volume. Once the principal editor for a volume has been found, he or she then has a completely free hand in the choice of co-editors and contributors. The editors plan each volume independently of the others, being governed only by general formal principles. The series editor only intervene where questions of delineation between individual volumes are concerned. It is felt that this (modus operandi) is best suited to achieving the objectives of the series, namely to give a competent account of the present state of knowledge and of the perception of the problems in the area covered by each volume.

Book Egypt   Temple of the Whole World

Download or read book Egypt Temple of the Whole World written by Sibylle Meyer and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2004-03-01 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The intellectual heritage of Ancient Egypt" – once wrote Jan Assmann – "can hardly be said to have become part of our cultural memory. It is a subject of fascination, not of understanding." This fascination began when ancient Greek travellers started visiting Egypt, and continues unto this day, more often than not as a scholarly search for the oldest roots of our cultural memory. Jan Assmann's superb academic achievement undoubtedly represents the single most significant contribution to the modern understanding of Ancient Egypt, reaching far beyond the boundaries of Egyptology proper. The essays in this volume, all written by his friends and disciples, reflect the tremendous impact of his oeuvre on the scholarly world, encompassing not only Egyptological and related themes, but also central aspects of Judaeo-Christian identity such as monotheism and the historical events surrounding the recently discovered Diaspora temple of Yahu on the island of Elephantine.

Book Johan Huizinga 1872   1972

Download or read book Johan Huizinga 1872 1972 written by W.R.H. Koops and published by Springer. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 11 to 15 December 1972 a group of historians from many European countries assembled in Groningen to commemorate the centenary of Johan Huizinga's birth in that city on 7 December 1872. The conference was not intended simply as a tribute to the memory of a great historian but also as an attempt to assess the sig nificance of his work for the present generation. It was supported by generous grants from the Stichting oud-studentenfonds van 1906 at Groningen, the Gro ninger Universiteitsfonds, and the Ministry of Education and Science. We are pleased to be able to publish all the papers read at the conference, together with Dr. Jansonius's study of Huizinga's style, written for another occasion. The material is presented in a roughly chronological order. The first three papers, which examine Huizinga's intellectual and literary points of departure, are followed by another three dealing with The Waning of the Middle Ages. A special paper is de voted to Huizinga's Erasmian studies. The next three authors investigate the prob lems which preoccupied Huizinga during the 1930s. Three final papers examine general aspects of his work.

Book Handschrift im Druck  ca  1500   1800

Download or read book Handschrift im Druck ca 1500 1800 written by Sylvia Brockstieger and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-05-08 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dem Neben- und Miteinander von Hand- und Druckschriftlichkeit in der Frühen Neuzeit bis in die Goethezeit ist in der Forschung bisher nur ungenügend Beachtung geschenkt worden. Der Übergang von der Hand- zur Druckschriftlichkeit ‚nach Gutenberg‘ wird gerne als ein Ablösungsprozess beschrieben; erst in der Zeit um 1800 nehme die Handschrift im Lichte neuer Autorschafts- und Individualitätskonzepte neuen, auratischen Charakter an. Der Band argumentiert in Fallstudien für eine neue Aufmerksamkeit für die zahlreichen Interferenzphänomene von Handschrift und Druck, die die unterschiedlichsten Formen und Funktionen annehmen können. Er fokussiert besonders handschriftliche Interventionen in gedruckten Büchern: Diese brechen den durch den Druck fixierten Text auf, indem sie ihn kommentieren, korrigieren oder erweitern. Sie weisen auf veränderte Gebrauchskontexte, die Flexibilisierung vermeintlich statischer Autorschaftskonzepte und die Dynamik von Korrekturprozessen. Der Band plädiert in der interdisziplinären Zusammenschau von Literatur-, Buch- und Geschichtswissenschaften für einen neuen, materialitätsorientierten Blick auf alte Fragen der Literaturgeschichte des Druckzeitalters.

  • Release : 2021-10-25
  • ISBN : 3110681064
  • Pages : 306 pages

Download or read book Lutheran Music Culture written by Mattias Lundberg and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-10-25 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents a novel and distinct contribution to previous research on the rich Lutheran heritage of music. It builds upon a current surge of interest in the field, which resonates with a wider interest in connections between music and religion, as well as with cultural and aesthetic dimensions of faith at large. The book situates the topic in relation to recent developments within historical and cultural studies that have developed a more nuanced and positive view of the interplay between theologians and other cultural agents in the evolution of Western modernity during post Reformation processes of ‘confessionalization’. It combines conceptual discussions of key terms relevant to the study of the development and significance of an Early Modern Lutheran Music Culture with theological readings of central texts on music, analytic approaches to historical repertoires and material perspectives on its dissemination.
