Download or read book Cultural Transfer of Music between Byzantium and the West written by Nina-Maria Wanek and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2024-04-25 with total page 687 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive study of Greek language ordinary chants (Gloria/Doxa, Credo/Pisteuo, Sanctus/Hagios and Agnus Dei/Amnos tu theu) in Western manuscripts from the 9th to 14th centuries. These chants – known as “Missa Graeca” – have been the subject of academic research for over a hundred years. So far, however, research has been almost exclusively from a Western point of view, without knowledge of the Byzantine sources. For the first time, this book presents an in-depth analysis of these chants and their historical, linguistic and theological-liturgical environment from a Byzantine perspective. The new approach enables the author to refute numerous (and largely contradictory) theories on the origin and development of the Missa Graeca and provides new answers to old questions.

This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the conversion of Constantine in 312 and the establishment of the Christian Empire, the book continues through the Middle Ages up to the publication of Gratian's Decretum, the great, systematic book of Church law which transformed the idea of tradition into legal concepts. Throughout this period the hierarchy was called upon to deal with such fundamental questions as the nature of tradition and the extent of its authority, the infallibility of the pope, and the proper role of the laity in defining dogma.

Download or read book Byzantium and the Decline of the Roman Empire written by Walter Emil Kaegi and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-08 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor Kaegi studies the response of the eastern half of the Roman Empire to the disintegration of western Rome, usually dated from the sack of the city of Rome in A.D. 410. Using sources from the fifth and sixth centuries, he shows that the eastern empire had a clear awareness of, interest in, and definite opinions on the disasters that befell Rome in the west. Religious arguments, both Pagan and Christian, tended to dominate the thinking of the intellectuals, but economic and diplomatic activity also contributed to the reaction. This reaction, the author finds, was in a distinctly eastern manner and reflected quite naturally the special conditions prevailing in the eastern provinces. Originally published in 1968.

Download or read book Un Moyen ge grec written by Évelyne Patlagean and published by Albin Michel. This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Disparue corps et biens au milieu du XVe siècle, Byzance occupe dans l'historiographie une place paradoxale. Face à la lente construction des sociétés occidentales et du monde turco-musulman, elle apparaît comme une Antiquité continuée, à laquelle la chute de Constantinople, en 1453, mit fin. Elle doit en bonne partie ce statut atypique à la conviction des historiens de la période médiévale que la « féodalité » qui caractérisa l'Occident fut l'exclusivité d'une « Europe fille des invasions ». Remontant à la source de cette interprétation, Évelyne Patlagean propose un réexamen de l'histoire byzantine des IXe-XVe siècles à la lumière du livre fondateur de Marc Bloch La Société féodale. L'entourage impérial, le milieu aristocratique, l'appareil d'État sont ainsi analysés du point de vue des liens familiaux et sociaux, des engagements de fidélité et de l'organisation des pouvoirs. La société byzantine apparaît alors sous un jour nouveau, comme une composante à part entière du monde médiéval. Le « Moyen Âge grec » révélé par ce livre redonne sa place à Byzance dans la lente gestation des structures sociales et des pouvoirs issus de la société antique, et fait sortir l'Empire d'Orient de l'obscurité où la cantonnent trop souvent encore les historiens du monde occidental. « Un livre essentiel qui, en brisant les clivages académiques artificiels, aide à comprendre aussi bien Byzance que l'Occident [...]. Un de ces livres rares qui, par une largeur de vue appuyée sur des enquêtes d'une infinie précision, renouvellent les perspectives, remettent en cause les convictions les mieux établies et obligent à rouvrir les dossiers qu'on croyait clos. Une bouffée d'air frais, en quelque sorte. » Maurice Sartre, Le Monde des livres.
Download or read book Les anciens r pertoires de plain chant written by Michel Huglo and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-14 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The differences between Old-Roman, Ambrosian, Aquileian, Gallican, and Hispanic chant, and their interconnections with each other and the Gregorian chant occupied Michel Huglo in his early career, although he returned to these questions in the 1980s and 1990s. The present volume, the second in the set of four to be published in the Variorum series, brings all this work together. Huglo's 1954 article, the first to describe the sources for Old Roman chant, recognized as distinct from Gregorian chant, is of primary significance for the historiography of Western plainchant, because it opened the debate on the relationship between Old Roman and Gregorian chant. The final section presents articles on the Latin version of the Akathistos hymn and on Byzantine chants translated into Latin that became part of the Western plainchant repertory. Les différences entre les répertoires Vieux-romain, Ambrosien, Aquiléien, Gallican et Hispanique, leurs influences réciproques et leurs relations avec le chant grégorien ont occupé Michel Huglo au début de sa carrière: il revint sur ces questions dans les années 1980 et 1990. Ce volume, le deuxième d'une série de quatre dans la collection Variorum, réunit toutes ces études. L'article de 1954 de Michel Huglo sur les sources du chant Vieux-romain, considéré comme distinct du grégorien, est de première importance pour l'historiographie du plain-chant occidental, car il a ouvert les débats sur le rapport entre Vieux-romain et grégorien. Les articles sur la version latine de l'Hymne Acathiste et sur les pièces de chant byzantin traduites en latin dans les répertoires occidentaux du plain-chant achèvent ce volume.
Download or read book History of Linguistics Volume II written by Giulio C. Lepschy and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-19 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This comprehensive history of linguistics is part of a 5 volume set. Together, the volumes examine the social, cultural and religious functions of language, its place in education, the prestige attached to different varieties of language, and the presentation of lexical and grammatical descriptions. They explore the linguistic interests and assumptions of individual cultures in their own terms, without trying to transpose and reshape them into the context of contemporary ideas of what the scientific study of language ought to be. The authors of individual chapters are all specialists who have been able to analyse the primary sources, and so produce original syntheses which offer an authoritative view of the different traditions and periods. Volume Two examines the Greek, Roman and Medieval European traditions, which between them developed the grammatical and syntactical models which form the basis of our inherited linguistic assumptions.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comment les hommes ont-ils choisi d'écrire leur langue ? Comment cette transmission de l'écrit peut-elle générer des dysfonctionnements chez l'enfant ou chez l'adulte ? Ces questions constituent les deux problématiques principales de cette collection. Quelle fut l'origine des études des langues africaines ? Quelles zones géographiques recouvrait cette linguistique ? Pourquoi une telle terminologie ? Était-elle pertinente ? Quelles étaient les relations entre la linguistique africaine et la linguistique générale ? Très curieusement, il n'existe pas à ce jour d'ouvrage proposant cette vue panoramique. Et pourtant, les relations entre l'Europe et le continent africain ont été, et demeurent, des relations privilégiées, avec ses crises, ses utopies et, l'histoire de l'étude des langues africaines s'inscrit complètement dans les différents aléas idéologiques des relations entre deux continents. Humaniste, linguiste, Jean Léonce Doneux propose ici une histoire commentée de la linguistique africaine. Cette histoire commence avec les précurseurs et s'achève avec la période faste des années 70. Principes d'écriture des langues à tradition orale, réflexions nouvelles sur les catégories grammaticales des langues, classification des langues africaines constituent les trois grandes directions de la naissance de cette linguistique. Grâce à Jean Léonce Doneux, nous pouvons enfin lire cette histoire et comprendre cette linguistique africaine dans sa dimension européenne.

Download or read book Histoire de l tude de la langue grecque dans l occident de l Europe depuis la fin du Ve si cle jusqu celle du XIVe written by Ernest Renan and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 790 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En 1848, l'Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres couronne une étude d'Ernest Renan (1823-1892) répondant à la question inscrite au concours sur " l'étude de la langue grecque en Occident du Ve siècle au XIVe siècle ". Repéré il y a quelques années par P. Vidal-Naquet, le manuscrit de Renan n'a jamais été publié jusqu'à ce jour alors que son auteur exerça sur le XIXe siècle français une véritable " royauté intellectuelle ". Loin de se limiter à un exercice d'érudition, Renan pose là les prémices qu'il développera dans la suite de son oeuvre. Il met en place tout d'abord une théorie des langues qui l'amène à porter l'accent sur le triple héritage de l'Occident au carrefour des civilisations grecque, hébraïque et arabo-musulmane. Il développe ensuite une vision du religieux et de son rôle dans le développement humain qui prend toute son importance au regard des débats actuels sur la laïcité. Il réfléchit enfin à la façon dont cohabitent les civilisations dans l'histoire. C'est, en somme, bien avant la Réforme intellectuelle et morale, une réflexion sur les éléments qui constituent l'unité d'une culture mais aussi l'avenir des nations que nous offre ce texte. Destin des langues, place du religieux, construction d'un passé de l'humanité garant de son avenir potentiel : le manuscrit sur " l'étude de la langue grecque en Occident du Ve au XIVe siècle " doit donc être lu comme la première oeuvre politique de Renan. Sa publication répond, on le voit, aux interrogations qui sont aujourd'hui les nôtres.
