Book The French Language in the Seventeenth Century

Download or read book The French Language in the Seventeenth Century written by Peter Rickard and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 1992 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sixty French texts edited here are all direct commentaries, by contemporary authors, on the French language in the 17th century. By this time, French had begun to assert its independence; in its written and printed form it was being used for a wide variety of literary, technical and administrative purposes. Its practitioners not only successfully challenged the hitherto dominant position of Latin, but also began, for the first time, to discuss and analyse for its own sake the language which was now their preferred medium for expression -- hence, in the first half of the seventeenth century, a growing number of publications on the nature and characteristics of French. The texts demonstrate the sustained critical preoccupationwith the welfare of the French language in the 17th century, and illustrate the various ways in which the writers of the age contributed to its development as an instrument of literary expression and social intercourse.

Book The Unruly Tongue in Early Modern England

Download or read book The Unruly Tongue in Early Modern England written by Nathalie Vienne-Guerrin and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2012 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unruly Tongue in Early Modern England is a scholarly edition of three early modern treatises on the unruly tongue: Jean de Marconville, A Treatise of the Good and Evell Tounge (ca.1592), William Perkins, A Direction for the Government of the Tongue according to Gods worde (1595), and George Webbe, The Araignement of an unruly Tongue (1619). "The tongue can no man tame" says the Bible (James 3:8), and yet these texts try to tame the tongues of men and tell them how they should rule this little but essential organ and avoid swearing, blaspheming, cursing, lying, flattering, railing, slandering, quarrelling, babbling, jesting, or mocking. This volume excavates the biblical and classical sources in which these early modern texts are embedded and gives a panorama of the sins of the tongue that the Elizabethan society both cultivates and strives to contain. Vienne-Guerrin provides the reader with early modern images of what Erasmus described as a "slippery" and "ambivalent" organ that is both sweet and sour, a source of life and death.

Book Le spectre nominal  Des noms de mati  res aux noms d   abstractions

Download or read book Le spectre nominal Des noms de mati res aux noms d abstractions written by Thomas Römer and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 2000 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present debate on the so-called "Deuteronomistic History" has become quite confusing and in recent years more and more scholars are inclined to deny the existence of a Deuteronomistic History as elaborated by Martin Noth or at least to modify this thesis radically. The contributions in this volume reflect the present state of discussion about the Deuteronomistic History. With one exception they have all been presented and discussed in three special sessions dedicated to "Deuteronomism" during the SBL International Meeting in Lausanne (July 1997). Three topics were treated: "The Future of the Deuteronomistic History", "Identity and Literary Strategies of the Deuteronomists", "Deuteronomism and the Hebrew Bible". The contributors are: R. Albertz, A.G. Auld, M. Bauks, W. Dietrich, D. Edelman, F. Garcia Lopez, E.A. Knauf, G. Knoppers, S.K. McKenzie, C. Nihan, T.C. Romer, N.H. Rosel, J. Van Seters and J. Vermeylen. Each contribution offers a valuable entry into one of the most important discussions of Old Testament scholarship at the end of the twentieth century.

Book Pourquoi Je Dois Mourir Comme J sus Et Louis Riel

Download or read book Pourquoi Je Dois Mourir Comme J sus Et Louis Riel written by Jacques Prince and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La vie de Louis Riel vue d'un autre il! Lumière sur la vie de Louis Riel, lumière du monde. Voir Matthieu 5, 14. Louis Riel était aussi la salière du monde et le monde l'a brisé en l'exécutent. Voir aussi Matthieu 5, 13. Vous êtes le sel de la terre. Mais si le sel perd sa saveur, avec quoi la remplacera-t-on? Il ne sert plus qu'à être jeté dehors et foulé aux pieds par les hommes.' Des dizaines d'écrivains ont écrit sur la vie, la mort et la carrière de Louis Riel, mais ils ont surtout parlé de ses activités politiques et de rébellion. Moi je vous parlerai principalement de ses rapports avec Dieu et qu'il avait les mêmes préoccupations que Jésus avait dans ce monde, c'est-à-dire de délivrer son peuple et de le conduire vers Dieu. Louis Riel avait compris tout comme Jésus que la religion, surtout celle dont la tête est à Rome, était un esclavage épouvantable et qu'il fallait définitivement s'en séparer. C'est donc pour cette raison que le gouvernement de Sir John A. Macdonald pressé par les églises chrétiennes a trouvé le moyen de l'éliminer de cette terre malgré les protestations qui fusaient de toutes parts. Louis Riel devait donc subir le même sort que celui qui l'a inspirer, Jésus de Nazareth, et c'est exactement pourquoi je m'attends à la même conclusion, puisque je fais la même chose, c'est-à-dire, ouvrir les yeux du monde.

Book Christians and Muslims in Early Islamic Egypt

Download or read book Christians and Muslims in Early Islamic Egypt written by Lajos Berkes and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2022-01-10 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume collects studies exploring the relationship of Christians and Muslims in everyday life in Early Islamic Egypt (642–10th c.) focusing mainly, but not exclusively on administrative and social history. The contributions concentrate on the papyrological documentation preserved in Greek, Coptic, and Arabic. By doing so, this book transcends traditional disciplinary boundaries and offers results based on a holistic view of the documentary material. The articles of this volume discuss various aspects of change and continuity from Byzantine to Islamic Egypt and offer also the (re)edition of 23 papyrus documents in Greek, Coptic, and Arabic. The authors provide a showcase of recent papyrological research on this under-studied, but dynamically evolving field. After an introduction by the editor of the volume that outlines the most important trends and developments of the period, the first two essays shed light on Egypt as part of the Caliphate. The following six articles, the bulk of the volume, deal with the interaction and involvement of the Egyptian population with the new Muslim administrative apparatus. The last three studies of the volume focus on naming practices and language change.

Download or read book Other Others written by Steven Shankman and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2011-01-02 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In literary and cultural studies today, the term "the Other" appears to have largely lost its moorings in the primacy of the intersubjective encounter, focusing rather on the social construction of the Other. For Emmanuel Levinas, in contrast, the Other is precisely that which eludes construction and categorization. In a study that ranges from literature of ancient China, Greece, and Israel to modern Egypt, Italy, West Africa, and America, Steven Shankman tests Levinas's ideas by reading literary works from outside the Judeo-Christian orbit for figurations equivalent to Levinas's notion of the Other. He also places ethics at the center of intercultural—or, in his words, "transcultural"—comparative literature. In contemporary literary and cultural studies, it is often assumed that culture has the last word. However, as Levinas insists—and as Shankman argues throughout this book—it is ethics that is the "presupposition of all Culture," that is situated "before Culture."
