Download or read book The Sabaite Heritage in the Orthodox Church from the Fifth Century to the Present written by Joseph Patrich and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2001 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: St. Sabas (439-532 CE), was one of the principal leaders of Palestinian monasticism, that had flourished in the sixth century in the desert of Jerusalem. As an abbot he was the first in Palestine to formulate a monastic rule in writing, and his activity as an ecclesiastical leader bore upon the life of the entire Christian community in the Holy land. He and his monks were active in the theological disputes that affected the fate of the Christian Church of Palestine, and shaped it as a stronghold of Orthodoxy. But his activity has transcended his place and time. His largest monastery - the Great Laura (Mar saba), functioned from the sixth to the ninth century as the intellectual centre of the See of Jerusalem. The most distinguished among its authors were Cyril of Scythopolis, Leontius of Byzantium, John Moschus and Sophronius, Antiochus Monachos, John of Damascus, Cosmas the Hymnographer, Leontius of Damascus and Stephen Mansur. Their treatises on dogma, and prayer, shaped Orthodox theology, liturgy and hymnography in Palestine and beyond. This literary activity in Greek was complemented by scribal activity of copying and translating of Greek manuscripts into Arabic and Georgian. There was also original composition in Arabic by Theodore Abu Qurrah and others. Monastic life in Mar Saba, that continued under Muslim rule with only short intermissions, preserved the Sabaite tradition, and contributed to its reputation, parallel to that of Jerusalem. Sabaite monks were renown as paragons of monasticism and dogma, who had inspired monastic and ecclesiastical reformers in later centuries throughout the Orthodox world. Its fame spread far and wide, from Rome and North Africa in the west, to Serbia, Russia and Georgia in the east, affecting Christian dogma and liturgy therein. The thirty-one studies included in this volume, each written by an expert in his field, present the various facets of the Sabaite heritage in the Orthodox Church, from the sixth century to the present.

Download or read book Petrarch s Penitential Psalms and Prayers written by Francesco Petrarca and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2024-05-15 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first English translation of Petrarch’s Psalms and Prayers provides an intimate look at the personal devotions of the “Father of Humanism.” Throughout Petrarch’s work, there is an undercurrent of tension between the secular and the sacred. In this captivating new translation of the Psalms and the Prayers, Demetrio Yocum turns to a previously overlooked area of Petrarchan studies to open a window on the scholar’s innermost religious thoughts. Petrarch's Psalms and Prayers are intricately crafted poetic and devotional works, presented in facing Latin/English format. In his extensive introduction and commentary, Yocum situates these bold, original compositions within their historical, literary, and religious contexts, deftly drawing connections to classical texts, the Bible and the writings of the church fathers, and Petrarch’s own life, work, and poetics. This remarkable first-ever English translation of the Psalms and Prayers helps to reconcile Petrarch’s classical humanism with his devout, deeply personal Christianity.

Book excerpt: Sin dai tempi più arcaici gli uomini hanno cercato di contrastare le manifestazioni più estreme della Natura attraverso un'azione magica, che si è evoluta nei secoli generando credenze, riti e tabù.

Download or read book NumeriSecondi written by Maurizio Guidi and published by Pontificio Istituto Biblico. This book was released on 2018 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All'immagine del teatro ci siamo ispirati nell'intessere i 33 contributi di questo Volume in onore del prof. don Massimo Grilli, cercando di portare su un ideale palcoscenico alcuni "personaggi" biblici che fossero annunciatori di una prospettiva altra, la prospettiva di Dio, che affida ai "secondi", in un mondo di "primi", il compito di trasmettere la verità del suo Volto. Quello dei NumeriSecondi diviene così il teatro che apre i sui spazi e dischiude il suo sipario per dare accoglienza e ascolto alla Parola che entra in dialogo con gli uomini mediante la loro stessa voce, e grida ancora una volta la beatitudine-cardine: «Beati i numerisecondi». Dopo l'accoglienza ne Le Foyer dell'Opéra, la pièce si articola in una Ouverture, Il testo e l'orizzonte pragmatico, e due Atti, «NumeriSecondi» nella Bibbia ebraica, e Il Dio dei «piccoli» nel Nuovo Testamento. Dietro le Quinte conclude lo "spettacolo" con alcune testimonianze sulla vita e l'attività di don Massimo.
