Book The Journal of Philology  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Journal of Philology Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by W. G. Clark and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-09-27 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 1 There is a mystery about the Unseen that takes equally strong hold of the cultivated and the untutored mind: but in the former it is subjected to reason and faith in all-controlling Provi dence, in the latter it degenerates into pure unreasoning dread. Even children who have never been wantonly frightened are apt to fear the dark. There is but too much reason to believe, that the earliest notions of worship in the human race were dictated by fear rather than by love. If we follow the analogy of our own times, we can hardly doubt that the grovelling races who in very remote ages lived in caves and made flint or bone implements, had no exalted ideas of a beneficent Creator. To worship and obey are higher efforts than to fear and to bribe. Hence the propitiation of malignant powers rather than the adoration of a Supreme Good seems to have formed the basis of the early religions of the world. It is certain that even element-worship, although, coming as it did from the Persians and Medians, both highly gifted families, it had some grand conceptions, had also its dark side, and dealt largely with the powers supposed to reside under the earth'. A right understanding of this subject is by no means unimportant to the correct appreciation of the mind of the Greek and Roman poets. It is a very extensive subject; but I hope to give such a sketch of it in brief as will be useful to those who have not directed their attention specially to it.

Book The Journal of Germanic Philology  Vol  1  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Journal of Germanic Philology Vol 1 Classic Reprint written by Gustaf E. Karsten and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Germanic Philology, Vol. 1 It has fared with Walther von der Vogelweide as with many another upon the roll of fame. Regarding his birth and his birthplace, his actual social status, his death, and his descendants, the muse of history is mute. In the absence of definite data, however, speculation has been rife, and with elaborate ingenuity has re-created from the shreds and tatters of sporadic references a characteristic and appropriate biography. Of what nature are these materials? Apart from the noble and imperishable monument of his poetic works, the meagre memorials of his existence and career may be quickly quoted. In Austria, as he himself says in one of his poems, in Austria he learned his art. "Ze Osterriche lernt ich singen unde sagen." At various castles and courts he appeared at various times as a transient guest, not always himself content, nor apparently always welcomed as he desired and deserved. Once at least he tarried, but briefly, at a monastery, that of Tegernsee, where, if any, purely aqueous was his entertainment, and humorous his expressed dissatisfaction, (l. w. 104, 23.) According to a record discovered in 1874, he, the "Cantor Waltherus de Vogelweide," received in the fall of 1203 the price of a mantle of pelt at the hands of Wolfger von Ellen-brechtskirchen, the Bishop of Passau, and later Patriarch of Aquileia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 12 2 mallem audire Cottam dum, qua eloquentia falsos deos sustulit, eadem veros inducat. This is the general reading of the MSS., except that A, with one or two inferior codices, has malem; but, as A has also nolent for nollent in 7 the variation is unimportant. Heindorf followed by Muller reads malim. I retain the old text, and take the sentence to be equivalent to mallem audire eundem inducen-tem qui sustulerat, translating 'for my part I should have preferred to hear that same Cotta using the eloquence with which he abolished the false gods, to bring in the true.' For audire dum ef. Suet. Dom. 4 auditus est dum ab eo quaerit, and ray note on N. D. I. 58 videor audisse cum. For the discrepancy of tenses we have such parallels as Fin.

This book was released on 2018-03-05 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, 1874, Vol. 5 This is all I care to say on the question of citation. The only concern which I feel about it on personal grounds is the desire to have it understood that what is censured in my pro cedure in this matter has arisen out of a theory which I hold: and not from any failure of respect for one whom I have long been taught to regard as amongst the foremost of living Grecians, and as a most generous and high-minded English gentleman. The tacit compliment that is implied in his think ing it a matter of importance to the cause of literature, whether he is fairly treated in my book or not, would be a source of unmingled gratification to me, but for the pain of seeing that I have unintentionally wounded him. And I frankly own that I feel a certain regret, when I think that a slight difference of treatment would perhaps have won for me his full and hearty recognition. II. For in our principles of interpretation it would really, seem that we are at one. At least I can hardly take exception to Dr Kennedy's statement of his design.

Book The Journal of Philology  Vol  24  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Journal of Philology Vol 24 Classic Reprint written by W. Aldis Wright and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 24 In the course of lecturing on these books in the year 1894 I found many old difficulties still unsolved by commentators; while several new ones suggested themselves, principally from a study of the full collation of MSS given in Hude's text-edition Copenhagen 1890. In this excellent book it is at last possible to see the facts at a glance. Hence most of the following notes, in which I have tried to meet a few difficulties, turn on textual points. I fear I am sadly behind the age, for the tendency of the notes is in the main conservative. The facile bracketing of the subjectively unpleasing (a common phenomenon in modern criticism) is in my eyes tolerable only when unforced reasons can be given to account for the alleged interpolation. This however is seldom the case. The text of the same editor varies in different editions: what was a pointless insertion sometimes becomes a pointed and integral part of the passage; and the repentant critic explains at leisure what he had expunged in haste. So too with verbal emendations. A few are brilliant, a very few certain; while the attempts to change what is presumably bad into what is surely worse are numberless.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, 1882, Vol. 11 When Horace named Plato "the learned," he used no idle or conventional epithet, but one culled with his usual "curious felicity." This learning is a source of frequent perplexity to the student of the Platonic Dialogues. In many of these we may read plain traces of a double purpose, a purpose of refutation and a purpose of construction. But it is characteristic of Plato's philosophical genius that he is ever seeking for truth amid heaps of seeming error - ever trying to detach the gold from the dross, and to recast it in the mould of his own comprehensive system, anticipating in his practice the celebrated maxim of the German Plato: "Philosophers are usually right in what they assert, but wrong in what they deny."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Journal of Philology, Vol. 27 Somewhat reluctantly I have been driven by a close examination of epic usage to the conclusion that the curious phrase, 76m, 8' aiis-ro Ounce, his soul thought of lamentation wailing was the thought of his soul' is Homerically an illegitimate and indefensible expression. It recurs, it is true, once again, u 349, where the whole line is repeated verbatim after docs 8' cipa mpeaw.

Bicec opolis does not leave the stage but the scene behind him changes to an open space in the country with a house on each side, one for Dicaeopolis (line 202) the other for Euripides, line 368. The house which serves first as the dwelling of Euripides may do duty for that of Lamachus afterwards. Dicaeopolis on his road home is musing regretfully on the loss of his luncheon when he is interrupted by the return of Amphitheus.
