Book The Irish Liber Hymnorum  Volume 14

Download or read book The Irish Liber Hymnorum Volume 14 written by John Henry Bernard and published by General Books. This book was released on 2012-01-14 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos, missing text or index. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. 1898. Not illustrated. Excerpt: ... (e) l. 113. 'undique conglobantibus ad compagines ossibus.' The Vulgate of Ezek. xxxvii. 7, is 'accesserunt ossa ad ossa, unumquodque ad iuncturam suam'; but Ambrose and the O. L. translator of Irenaeus have 'unumquodque ad suam compaginem.' (f) l. 117. The description of the Pleiades as Uirgiliae in this stanza reproduces the O.L. of Job ix. 9: 'qui facit uirgilias et uesperum, &c.' which is witnessed to by Ambrose, and is found in the margin of the Codex Gothicus legionensis.1 The Vulgate has 'qui facit Arcturum et Oriona et Hvadas.' See, however, p. 166. (g) l. 125. 'cadent in terra sidera, ut fructus de ficulnea.' The Vulgate of Apoc. vi. 13, has 'sicut ficus emittit grossos suos.' Now the Gigas text of the O.L. Apocalypse has 'sicut ficulnea deicit grossos suos '; and Primasius and the Liber de promiss. et proedict. dei. c. xvii. read 'ficus' and 'fructus.' Thus both fructus and ficulnea of the hymn rest on good O.L. authority. In the adaptation of the Altus by Hraban Maur, to be presently spoken of, it will be observed that Hraban has replaced fructus by the more familiar grossos. The writer of the hymn, then, used a prae-Hieronymian text of both Old and New Testaments. This fact, of itself, would indicate that he was not Prosper of Aquitaine or Julianus Pomerius; and it falls in well with the tradition which names Columba as the author, for the scanty evidence on the subject which is forthcoming teaches us that it was the Old Latin rather than the Vulgate which was current in the Irish Church in the fifth and sixth centuries. This is certainly true of the Scripture quotations in the genuine remains of St. Patrick, which are Old Latin of the so-called "European" type. It is possible that legend has preserved for us the truth as to the introduction of the V...

    Book Details:
  • Author : Benjamin K. Forrest
  • Publisher : James Clarke & Company
  • Release : 2020-03-26
  • ISBN : 0227907213
  • Pages : 370 pages

Download or read book Hymns and Hymnody Volume 1 written by Benjamin K. Forrest and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2020-03-26 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hymns and the music the church sings are tangible means of expressing worship. As worship is one of the central functions of the church and it occupies a prime focus, a renewed sense of awareness to our theological presuppositions and cultural cues must be maintained to ensure a proper focus in worship. Hymns and Hymnody is an introductory textbook in three volumes describing the most influential hymnists, liturgists, and musical movements of the church. This academically grounded resource evaluates both the historical and theological perspectives of the major hymnists and composers that have impacted the church over the course of twenty centuries. Volume 1 explores the early church and concludes with the Renaissance era hymnists. Each chapter contains five elements: historical background, theological perspectives communicated in their hymns/compositions, contribution to liturgy and worship, notable hymns, and bibliography. The missions of Hymns and Hymnody are to provide biographical data on influential hymn writers for students and interested laypeople, and to provide a theological analysis of what the cited composers have communicated in the theology of their hymns. It is vital for those involved in leading the worship of the church to recognize that what they communicate is in fact theology. This latter aspect is missing in accessible formats for the current literature.

Book Hymns and Hymnody  Historical and Theological Introductions  Volume 1

Download or read book Hymns and Hymnody Historical and Theological Introductions Volume 1 written by Mark A. Lamport and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2019-02-21 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hymns and the music the church sings are tangible means of expressing worship. And while worship is one of, if not the, central functions of the church along with mission, service, education, justice, and compassion, and occupies a prime focus of our churches, a renewed sense of awareness to our theological presuppositions and cultural cues must be maintained to ensure a proper focus in worship. Hymns and Hymnody: Historical and Theological Introductions is a 60-chapter, three-volume introductory textbook describing the most influential hymnists, liturgists, and musical movements of the church. This academically grounded resource evaluates both the historical and theological perspectives of the major hymnists and composers that have impacted the church over the course of twenty centuries. Volume 1 explores the early church and concludes with the Renaissance era hymnists. Volume 2 begins with the Reformation and extends to the eighteenth-century hymnists and liturgists. Volume 3 engages nineteenth century hymnists to the contemporary movements of the twenty-first century. Each chapter contains these five elements: historical background, theological perspectives communicated in their hymns/compositions, contribution to liturgy and worship, notable hymns, and bibliography. The mission of Hymns and Hymnody is (1) to provide biographical data on influential hymn writers for students and interested laypeople, and (2) to provide a theological analysis of what these composers have communicated in the theology of their hymns. We believe it is vital for those involved in leading the worship of the church to recognize that what they communicate is in fact theology. This latter aspect, we contend, is missing—yet important—in accessible formats for the current literature.

  • Author : Elizabeth Rees
  • Publisher : The History Press
  • Release : 2013-05-01
  • ISBN : 0752492918
  • Pages : 333 pages

Download or read book Celtic Saints of Ireland written by Elizabeth Rees and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 333 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most books about Celtic saints are based on their legendary medieval lives. This book, however, is based upon our earliest surviving information: an examination of the sites where these early Christians lived and worked. Archaeology, combined with the study of place names, inscribed stones and early texts, offers us important clues which help us to piece together something of the fascinating world of early Irish Christianity. Elizabeth Rees, an acknowledged authority on Celtic Christianity, has produced this insightful history which is the first in an exciting new series. Illustrated throughout with her own evocative photographs of where these saints resided and worked, the reader is drawn into the beautiful world which these men and women inhabited.
