This book was released on 2018-02-12 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Or the Siege and Conqueste of Jerusalem It is a book which not only was a standard authority through all the Middle Ages, but one which even up to the present time is regarded as reliable in most particulars, and forms the base of all modern histories of this period. The book was written first in Latin, but was soon put into French, from which Caxton translated it into English. His translation is almost a literal one. He turns many of his French constructions into English, without any attempt at Anglicizing them, even transferring a French word bodily when he does not readily tind its English equivalent. On the whole, he understands his French, although there are incorrect renderings here and there, owing more to hasty reading, it seems, than to actual ignorance.

Download or read book A People s History of Classics written by Edith Hall and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-02-26 with total page 586 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A People’s History of Classics explores the influence of the classical past on the lives of working-class people, whose voices have been almost completely excluded from previous histories of classical scholarship and pedagogy, in Britain and Ireland from the late 17th to the early 20th century. This volume challenges the prevailing scholarly and public assumption that the intimate link between the exclusive intellectual culture of British elites and the study of the ancient Greeks and Romans and their languages meant that working-class culture was a ‘Classics-Free Zone’. Making use of diverse sources of information, both published and unpublished, in archives, museums and libraries across the United Kingdom and Ireland, Hall and Stead examine the working-class experience of classical culture from the Bill of Rights in 1689 to the outbreak of World War II. They analyse a huge volume of data, from individuals, groups, regions and activities, in a huge range of sources including memoirs, autobiographies, Trade Union collections, poetry, factory archives, artefacts and documents in regional museums. This allows a deeper understanding not only of the many examples of interaction with the Classics, but also what these cultural interactions signified to the working poor: from the promise of social advancement, to propaganda exploited by the elites, to covert and overt class war. A People’s History of Classics offers a fascinating and insightful exploration of the many and varied engagements with Greece and Rome among the working classes in Britain and Ireland, and is a must-read not only for classicists, but also for students of British and Irish social, intellectual and political history in this period. Further, it brings new historical depth and perspectives to public debates around the future of classical education, and should be read by anyone with an interest in educational policy in Britain today.

Download or read book Historical Sketch of the Jews Since the Destruction of Jerusalem Classic Reprint written by Bernhard Pick and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-14 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Sketch of the Jews, Since the Destruction of Jerusalem Judaea was a waste, Jerusalem was a heap of ruins. The temple had been consumed by flames, and the third exile - the European - began. Directly after the triumph of Titus, the great Council of the Israelitish Rabbins was established at Tiberias, in Galilee. The school of Scribes, instituted in that city, soon took the place of that temple, whose restoration has never ceased to be the object of their hopes and prayers. The celebrated revolt of Bar-Cochba and Akiba sprung, in great measure, from thence. Tiberias had become a kind of Jerusalem, where the so-called Oral Law was framed. The first idea of such an undertaking is thought by many to have originated with Rabbi Akiba, who was flayed alive in the Bar-Cochba revolt, in 135.

Very few people know the Hebrew language, or are able to test these assertions, except by such light of ordinary criticism as they may happen to possess, by the laws of literature and the force of nature; but I think that few, comparatively, will be tempted to transfer a faith, in which they have been trained from their childhood, to a small group of unknown persons, whose motives are dubious, and their methods more ingenious than ingenu ous; and to reject on their authority, as a series of often fraudulent fables, the history so full of nature, so instinct with every feeling of humanity, which has been the food.
