Book Synopsis Studying the New Testament through Inscriptions by : C Burnett
Download or read book Studying the New Testament through Inscriptions written by C Burnett and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2021-10-05 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studying the New Testament through Inscriptions is an intuitive introduction to inscriptions from the Greco-Roman world. Inscriptions can help contextualize certain events associated with the New Testament in a way that many widely circulated literary texts do not. This book both introduces inscriptions and demonstrates sound methodological use of them in the study of the New Testament. Through five case studies, it highlights the largely unrecognized ability of inscriptions to shed light on early Christian history, practice, and the leadership structure of early Christian churches, as well as to solve certain New Testament exegetical impasses. Key points and features: • No other book like this on the marketthis is the first of its kind! • A practical and much-needed tool for graduate students, seminarians, and pastors • Showcases five detailed case studies, designed to show students exactly how to use inscriptions • Includes 20+ black and white photos • Three appendices provide additional information for those who want to learn more
Book Synopsis Pastoral Inscriptions by : Brian W Breed
Download or read book Pastoral Inscriptions written by Brian W Breed and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-11-20 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virgil's "Eclogues" represent the introduction of a new genre, pastoral, to Latin literature. Generic markers of pastoral in the "Eclogues" include not only the representation of the singing and speaking of shepherd characters, but also the learned density of the text itself. Here, Brian W. Breed examines the tension between representations of orality in Virgil's pastoral world and the intense textuality of his pastoral poetry. The book argues that separation between speakers and their language in the "Eclogues" is not merely pastoral preciosity. Rather, it shows how Virgil uses representations of orality as the point of comparison for measuring both the capacity and the limitations of the "Eclogues" as a written text that will be encountered by reading audiences. The importance of genre is considered both in terms of how pastoral might be defined for the particular literary-historical moment in which Virgil was writing and in light of the subsequent European pastoral tradition.

Book Synopsis The Monumental Inscriptions from Early Islamic Iran and Transoxiana by : Sheila Blair
Download or read book The Monumental Inscriptions from Early Islamic Iran and Transoxiana written by Sheila Blair and published by BRILL. This book was released on 1991-11-01 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inscriptions on buildings are a distinctive feature of Islamic architecture, and this book studies the 79 surviving monumental inscriptions in the Iranian world from the first five centuries of the Muslim era (A.D. 622-1106), the period in which all the major trends of monumental epigraphy in the area were set. These foundation, commemorative, and funerary texts come from the region between Iraq and Soviet Central Asia. Written primarily in Arabic, they embellished architectural monuments and furnishings whose nature implies the construction of major buildings. An extended introduction discusses such general topics as titulature, patronage, and stylistic development. Each text is then presented individually with photographs, drawings, transcriptions, translations and an extensive commentary, which presents the inscription in its larger palaeographic and historical contexts.
