Download or read book Manuscripts and Performances in Religions Arts and Sciences written by Antonella Brita and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-12-04 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history, manuscripts have been made and used for religious, artistic, and scientific performances, and this practice continues in most cultures today. By focusing on the role manuscripts have in different kinds of performances, this volume contributes to the evolving field of investigating written artefacts and their functions. The collected essays regard manuscripts as points of intersection where textual, material, and performative aspects converge. The contributors analyse manuscripts in their forms and functions as well as their positioning in the performances for which they were made. These aspects unfold across the volume's three sections, examining how manuscripts are (1) used backstage, for preparing and giving instructions for performances; (2) taken onstage, contributing to the enactment of performances; and (3) performers in their own right, producing an effect on the audience. The diversified, interdisciplinary, and innovative methodologies of the included papers carry great potential to expand the traditional approaches of manuscript studies and find application outside the contributors' respective fields.

Download or read book Christian Culture and Society in Later Catholic England written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-08-08 with total page 677 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book in memory of F. Donald Logan explores different aspects of Christian culture and society in England from the twelfth to the sixteenth century. Although this period has traditionally been interpreted in terms of decline and decay, this excessively gloomy picture has slowly given way over the last eighty years or so to a more positive view of Christian civilization during these centuries. The twenty-two studies brought together here seek to build on this ongoing reassessment of Later Catholic England, especially in those areas in which Professor Logan himself had done so much to deepen our understanding of Christian English society.

Download or read book Bible Missals and the Medieval Dominican Liturgy written by Innocent Smith and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-11-06 with total page 1076 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bible Missals are manuscripts that integrate liturgical prayers for the Mass with the scriptural texts of the Latin Vulgate. Long overlooked by scholars, Bible Missals offer important evidence for the development of the medieval liturgy and the liturgical use of scripture by medieval Christians. This monograph is the first comprehensive analysis of the codicology and contents of Bible Missals. Mostly produced in the first half of the 13th century by professional book makers in centers like Paris and Oxford, these hybrid manuscripts were customized for secular, monastic, and mendicant patrons. This monograph focuses on Dominican Bible Missals, the largest group within the repertoire, providing detailed codicological descriptions of each manuscript and analyzing their texts for the Order of Mass and selected liturgical formularies, including prayers for the feast of St. Dominic. For medieval Christians, the words and events of scripture were continually called to mind and reenacted in the sacramental rites of the Mass. Bible Missals provide important material evidence for this interplay between word and sacrament.
Download or read book The Liturgy in Medieval England written by Richard W. Pfaff and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2009-09-24 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive historical treatment of the Latin liturgy in medieval England. Richard Pfaff constructs a history of the worship carried out in churches - cathedral, monastic, or parish - primarily through the surviving manuscripts of service books, and sets this within the context of the wider political, ecclesiastical, and cultural history of the period. The main focus is on the mass and daily office, treated both chronologically and by type, the liturgies of each religious order and each secular 'use' being studied individually. Furthermore, hagiographical and historiographical themes - respectively, which saints are prominent in a given witness and how the labors of scholars over the last century and a half have both furthered and, in some cases, impeded our understandings - are explored throughout. The book thus provides both a narrative account and a reference tool of permanent value.

Download or read book Music in Welsh Culture Before 1650 written by Sally Harper and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 517 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Music in Wales has long been a neglected area. Scholars have been deterred both by the need for a knowledge of the Welsh language, and by the fact that an oral tradition in Wales persisted far later than in other parts of Britain, resulting in a limited number of sources with conventional notation. Sally Harper provides the first serious study of Welsh music before 1650 and draws on a wide range of sources in Welsh, Latin and English to illuminate early musical practice. This book challenges and refutes two widely held assumptions - that music in Wales before 1650 is impoverished and elusive, and that the extant sources are too obscure and fragmentary to warrant serious study. Harper demonstrates that there is a far wider body of source material than is generally realized, comprising liturgical manuscripts, archival materials, chronicles and retrospective histories, inventories of pieces and players, vernacular poetry and treatises. This book examines three principal areas: the unique tradition of cerdd dant (literally 'the music of the string') for harp and crwth; the Latin liturgy in Wales and its embellishment, and 'Anglicised' sacred and secular materials from c.1580, which show Welsh music mirroring English practice. Taken together, the primary material presented in this book bears witness to a flourishing and distinctive musical tradition of considerable cultural significance, aspects of which have an important impact on wider musical practice beyond Wales.

Download or read book Sursum Corda written by David Pietrusza and published by Church & Reid. This book was released on with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Council of Trent to Benedict XVI's Motu Proprio A new generation of Catholics is discovering the beauty, reverence, appropriateness, and efficacy of the Tridentine Mass. The Traditional Latin Mass, as the saying goes, is "the Mass the martyrs died for." It is also the Mass the faithful lived for and which gave life to them and to the Church itself. This small volume is designed to humbly guide you in an appreciation of the Traditional Latin Mass' beauties, coherence, logic, aesthetics, glories, and graces. Featuring the works of: The Council of Trent Pius V Pius X Pius XI Pius XII John XXIII Paul VI John Paul II Benedict XVI St. Charles Borromeo Fr. Adrian Fortescue Bl. John Henry Cardinal Newman Alfons Cardinal Stickler Dom Fernand Cabrol Michael Davies Fr. Uwe Michael Lang Bp. Athanasius Schneider Fr. John T. Zuhlsdorf Micheal S. Rose . . . and more. *** "I am sure that this book will help many to better understand the great graces that have been opened again to the whole Church by the Motu Proprio Summorum Pontificum." —Msgr. R. Michael Schmitz, Vicar General in the Institute of Christ the King, Provincial Superior for the Institute in the United States "belongs in the library of any Catholic person or organization devoted to the Traditional Latin Mass. . . . If the priest who says that form in your parish or chapel doesn't already have a copy, it would make a most appropriate gift." —Una Voce America Nota "a much needed work . . . a precious gem in our library of liturgical works." —Fr. C. Frank Phillips, Canons Regular of St. John Cantius "David Pietrusza's 'Sursum Corda' makes the strongest case of all that the Latin Mass for which martyrs died is not only alive and vibrant today but growing. Here are all the documents from the Council of Trent in which the traditional Latin Mass was conceived to the Second Vatican Council which was interpreted to thwart it to Pope Benedict's "Summurum Pontificum" that encouraged its practice. This is must reading, not only for devotees of the Mass but for opponents and non-Catholics to understand why it means so much after 500 years." —John Gizzi, White House Correspondent, Newsmax
