Book Synopsis Orthodox Russia in Crisis by : Isaiah Gruber
Download or read book Orthodox Russia in Crisis written by Isaiah Gruber and published by Northern Illinois University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-15 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A pivotal period in Russian history, the Time of Troubles in the early seventeenth century has taken on new resonance in the country's post-Soviet search for new national narratives. The historical role of the Orthodox Church has emerged as a key theme in contemporary remembrances of this time—but what precisely was that role? The first comprehensive study of the Church during the Troubles, Orthodox Russia in Crisis reconstructs this tumultuous time, offering new interpretations of familiar episodes while delving deep into the archives to uncover a much fuller picture of the era. Analyzing these sources, Isaiah Gruber argues that the business activity of monasteries played a significant role in the origins and course of the Troubles and that frequent changes in power forced Church ideologues to innovate politically, for example inventing new justifications for power to be granted to the people and to royal women. These new ideas, Gruber contends, ultimately helped bring about a new age in Russian spiritual life and a crystallization of the national mentality.
Book Synopsis Experiencing Leonard Bernstein by : Kenneth LaFave
Download or read book Experiencing Leonard Bernstein written by Kenneth LaFave and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2023-06-14 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Leonard Bernstein is a household name. Most know him for his classic musical reworking of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet as Broadway’s West Side Story. But Bernstein accomplished so much more as a composer, and his body of work is both broad and varied. He composed ballets (Fancy Free, Facsimile, Dybbuk), operas (Trouble in Tahiti, Candide, A Quiet Place), musicals (On the Town, Wonderful Town), film scores (On the Waterfront), symphonies, choral works, chamber music pieces, art songs, and piano works. In Experiencing Leonard Bernstein: A Listener’s Companion, Kenneth LaFave guides readers past Bernstein’s famously tortured personal problems and into the clarity and balance of his Serenade after Plato’s Symposium for Violin and Orchestra, the intense drama of his music for On the Waterfront, the existential cosmography of his three symphonies, and his vibrant works for the musical stage. Perhaps the most famous American classical musician born in the twentieth century, Bernstein divided his time between c
Book Synopsis The Poetic Priestly Source by : Jason M. H. Gaines
Download or read book The Poetic Priestly Source written by Jason M. H. Gaines and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2015-12-15 with total page 546 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applying criteria for the identification of biblical Hebrew poetry, Jason M. H. Gaines distinguishes a nearly complete poetic Priestly stratum in the Pentateuch (“Poetic P”), coherent in literary, narrative, and ideological terms, from a later prose redaction (“Prosaic P”), which is fragmentary, supplemental, and distinct in thematic and theological concern. Gaines describes the whole of the “Poetic P” source and offers a Hebrew reconstruction of the document. This dramatically innovative understanding of the history of the Priestly composition opens up new vistas in the study of the Pentateuch.
Book Synopsis The Structure of Classical Hebrew Poetry: Isaiah 40-55 by : M.C.A. Korpel
Download or read book The Structure of Classical Hebrew Poetry: Isaiah 40-55 written by M.C.A. Korpel and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 766 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Exegesis starts with the delimitation of the pericope to be interpreted. Yet the principles for selecting passages which form the part of departure for the exegete are seldom made explicit and if one compares various commentaries and Bible translations, it soon becomes apparent that this lack of methodical transparency gives rise to a lot of confusion and dissent. In this work the authors make use of text divisions found in ancient Hebrew, Greek and Syriac manuscripts of Isaiah 40-55 (Deutero-Isaiah). For the first time the poetic structure of the text is based on controllable evidence which is roughly 500-1000 years older than the medieval Masoretic manuscripts on which all modern editions are based. The results are astonishing and raise the question why this type of evidence has been largely neglected thus far.

Book Synopsis Interpreting Hebrew Poetry by : David L. Petersen
Download or read book Interpreting Hebrew Poetry written by David L. Petersen and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2009-12-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a convenient introduction to the unique aspects of interpreting the one-third of the Hebrew Bible that is in poetic form. Numerous are the occasions when a failure to distinguish poetry from prose in the Old Testament has resulted in flawed interpretation. Robert Lowth's Lectures on the Sacred Poetry of the Hebrews (1753, 1787), marked a turning point of major proportions by focusing on the importance of parallelism of lines. But new studies of the past decade now require significant adjustments to Lowth's analyses. Interpreting Hebrew Poetry offers an authoritative introduction to this discussion of parallelism, meter and rhythm, and poetic style. It also provides by way of example a poetic analysis of Deuteronomy 32, Isaiah 5:1-7, and Psalm 1.
Book Synopsis Classical Hebrew Poetry by : Wilfred G. E. Watson
Download or read book Classical Hebrew Poetry written by Wilfred G. E. Watson and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2004-12-30 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In spite of debatable issues, such as metre, we now know enough about classical Hebrew poetry to be able to understand how it was composed. This large-scale manual, rich in detail, exegesis and bibliography, provides guidelines for the analysis and appreciation of Hebrew verse. Topics include oral poetry, metre, parallelism and forms of the strophe and stanza. Sound patterns and imagery are also discussed. A lengthy chapter sets out a whole range of other poetic devices and the book closes with a set of worked examples of Hebrew poetry. Throughout, other ancient Semitic verse has been used for comparison and the principles of modern literary criticism have been applied.

Book excerpt: ABSTRACT: This dissertation is a close reading of representative examples of stichographic, hymnic and sapiential poetry from the corpus of the texts in the Dead Sea Scrolls. Chapter 1, "The Language of Hebrew Poetry," introduces and defines the specific devices, levels of structure, and various characteristics that are discussed in the following chapters. The devices considered are lists, ellipsis and repetition. The levels of structure are hemistich, colon, line and strophe. Lastly, the characteristics are terseness, morphemic frequency and ampleur of expression. Chapter 2, "The Poetics of Parallelism," is a review of select scholarship concerning parallelism and biblical poetry. The focus of the chapter is on the role of parallelism in the definition, meter, devices and structure of biblical poetry. It sets forth a description of poetry and a taxonomy of parallelism that serves as the methodological basis for the poetic analysis of this dissertation. Chapter 2, furthermore, provides the basis for understanding how the poetry of the Dead Sea Scrolls appropriates, and differs from, biblical poetry. Chapter 3, "Stichographically Arranged Poetry," offers a systematic reconstruction and analysis of the poetic structure of select stichographic texts from Qumran. It is limited to an examination of Exodus 15 (4Q365), Deuteronomy 32 (4Q44), Psalm 104 (4Q86 and 4Q93) and 4QMessianicApocalypse (4Q521). The poetic analysis argues that the variegated forms of stichographic division were ultimately based on semantic, syntactic and grammatical parallelisms. Stichography is not only a scribal practice but is also a poetic device that visually represents the poetic structure of a text according to the basic building blocks of Hebrew poetry. Chapter 4, "Hymnic Poetry," focuses its analysis on one Hodayah (11.20-37) from the anthology of hymns in the Hodayot and compares its devices, structure and characteristics with ten other Hodayot in an effort to arrive at some conclusions regarding the style of the collection as a whole. Following a brief survey of previous scholarship on the poetry of the Hodayot, this chapter gives a transcription, translation and poetic analysis of 1QHa 11.20-37. Overall, this chapter argues that the poetry of the Hodayot is both traditional and innovative--a style epitomized by terseness juxtaposed with verbosity. Chapter 5, "Sapiential Poetry," offers a poetic analysis of 4Q184 1 and 4Q525 2+3 2.1-6. Following a survey and critique of scholarship on Wiles of the Wicked Woman (4Q184) and Beatitudes (4Q525), it offers a transcription, translation and poetic analysis of each work. The analysis of 4Q184 proposes that parallelism structures the extant portions of 4Q184 as a poem with eleven strophes and three stanzas organized thematically. The section on 4Q525 2+2 2.1-6 maintains that it is a sequence of three strophes structured according to parallelism and three different Semitic forms of beatitudes. Overall, the style of 4Q184 and 4Q525 is simultaneously conservative and innovative- terse, balanced forms of parallelism found together with ampleur of expression. Although the poetry of 4Q184 and 4Q525 is modeled on biblical conventions of poetry in Proverbs, it nonetheless exhibits later forms of poetic expression. Chapter 6, "Pedagogy and Performance," begins by offering some suggestions concerning the purpose and function of stichographic poetry, and then it proceeds to a comparison of the poetic devices, structure and characteristics of 4Q184, 4Q525 2+3 2.1-6 and 1QHa 11.20-37. This comparison serves as a synopsis of their poetic styles as well as the basis for some tentative suggestions concerning the characteristics of sapiential and hymnic poetry in the Dead Sea Scrolls. There are formal guidelines governing the composition of all of these texts; however, they are not precise prescriptions. The conclusion also investigates how the parallelism and poetic expression of sapiential and hymnic poetry reflect their usage. On the one hand, the primary use of sapiential poetry is instruction. This pedagogical impulse affects its content and form. Sapiential poetry is primarily characterized by terseness and it is dominated by "pedagogical parallelism." On the other hand, the essential use of hymnic poetry is liturgical, which likewise affects its formal characteristics. Hymnic poetry is chiefly characterized by ampleur and "performative parallelism" monopolizes its discourse.
