Download or read book The Nature of the Book written by Adrian Johns and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2000-05-15 with total page 780 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Nature of the Book, a tour de force of cultural history, Adrian Johns constructs an entirely original and vivid picture of print culture and its many arenas—commercial, intellectual, political, and individual. "A compelling exposition of how authors, printers, booksellers and readers competed for power over the printed page. . . . The richness of Mr. Johns's book lies in the splendid detail he has collected to describe the world of books in the first two centuries after the printing press arrived in England."—Alberto Manguel, Washington Times "[A] mammoth and stimulating account of the place of print in the history of knowledge. . . . Johns has written a tremendously learned primer."—D. Graham Burnett, New Republic "A detailed, engrossing, and genuinely eye-opening account of the formative stages of the print culture. . . . This is scholarship at its best."—Merle Rubin, Christian Science Monitor "The most lucid and persuasive account of the new kind of knowledge produced by print. . . . A work to rank alongside McLuhan."—John Sutherland, The Independent "Entertainingly written. . . . The most comprehensive account available . . . well documented and engaging."—Ian Maclean, Times Literary Supplement
Book Synopsis Renewing Tradition by : Mark W. Hamilton
Download or read book Renewing Tradition written by Mark W. Hamilton and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2006-11-10 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "We offer this collection as a token of our affection and admiration of our friend and colleague James Weldon Thompson. . . . His studies of the letter to the Hebrews and of Paul in their intellectual contexts (especially Middle Platonism) have contributed significantly to the ongoing quest for placing the New Testament in its socio-intellectual setting. Although his publications in this area date back more than thirty years, his best work is occurring now, and we may anticipate path-breaking contributions ahead. His more recent work on preaching and pastoral care in Paul both situate the Apostle in his own world and, just as importantly, offer correctives of some contemporary ministerial practices and invitations for improvements. Since 1993 Thompson has served as the editor of Restoration Quarterly, a significant venue for research in biblical studies, church history (especially of the Stone-Campbell Restoration Movement), and contemporary theology. His more popular works make available to a lay audience thoughtful, well-informed, and spiritually rewarding interpretations of much of the New Testament. "His achievements, however, do not end at the printing press. For more than thirty years, he has taught ministers and others at the Institute for Christian Studies (now Austin Graduate School of Theology) and Abilene Christian University. Students of the past and the present speak of him as a prepared, stimulating, and creative teacher unafraid of experimentation for a new generation of learners. At both institutions he also served as an administrator, first as President of ICS and then as Associate Dean of ACU's Graduate School of Theology. His colleagues respect his ability to enlist them for work as needed and otherwise to get out of their way, certainly a too rare set of skills in university administrators!" --from the Preface

Book Synopsis Latin Literatures of Medieval and Early Modern Times in Europe and Beyond by : Francesco Stella
Download or read book Latin Literatures of Medieval and Early Modern Times in Europe and Beyond written by Francesco Stella and published by John Benjamins Publishing Company. This book was released on 2024-07-15 with total page 726 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The textual heritage of Medieval Latin is one of the greatest reservoirs of human culture. Repertories list more than 16,000 authors from about 20 modern countries. Until now, there has been no introduction to this world in its full geographical extension. Forty contributors fill this gap by adopting a new perspective, making available to specialists (but also to the interested public) new materials and insights. The project presents an overview of Medieval (and post-medieval) Latin Literatures as a global phenomenon including both Europe and extra-European regions. It serves as an introduction to medieval Latin's complex and multi-layered culture, whose attraction has been underestimated until now. Traditional overviews mostly flatten specificities, yet in many countries medieval Latin literature is still studied with reference to the local history. Thus the first section presents 20 regional surveys, including chapters on authors and works of Latin Literature in Eastern, Central and Northern Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and the Americas. Subsequent chapters highlight shared patterns of circulation, adaptation, and exchange, and underline the appeal of medieval intermediality, as evidenced in manuscripts, maps, scientific treatises and iconotexts, and its performativity in narrations, theatre, sermons and music. The last section deals with literary “interfaces,” that is motifs or characters that exemplify the double-sided or the long-term transformations of medieval Latin mythologemes in vernacular culture, both early modern and modern, such as the legends about King Arthur, Faust, and Hamlet.
Book Synopsis National Myths in Renaissance France by : R. E. Asher
Download or read book National Myths in Renaissance France written by R. E. Asher and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It was the seventh-century Chronicle of Fredegar which first gave the Franks a Trojan ancestry, and the lineage stuck. This fascinating new study shows how, even as late as the sixteenth century, historians and poets found the lure of the eponymic hero Francus, the Glorious Druids and the Great Celtic Past irresistible. It describes how, obsessed with the origins of their country and the prevailing nationalism of the age, early sixteenth-century writers were largely uncritical of their highly spurious sources - even acknowledged forgeries such as those of Annius of Viterbo. However, a desire to replace fiction with fact gradually took hold as the Renaissance progressed, and National Myths examines the reasons for this change of mood and discusses the emotional satisfaction afforded by a belief in the Trojan and Gallic legends." "With its topical themes of nationalism and the politicisation of history, this book sheds new light on Renaissance historiography and on the history of ideas in general."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Das Abenteuer der Genealogie, Vater-Sohn-Beziehungen im Mittelalter by : Michael Mecklenburg
Download or read book Das Abenteuer der Genealogie, Vater-Sohn-Beziehungen im Mittelalter written by Michael Mecklenburg and published by V&R Unipress. This book was released on 2006 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genealogie ist im europäischen Mittelalter eine Denkform, die das gesamte politische, soziale und religiöse Leben strukturiert. Während die Mutter-Tochter-Beziehung durch die Literaturwissenschaft eine intensive Erforschung erfuhr, steht eine vergleichbare Beschäftigung mit Vätern und Söhnen noch aus. Der Band zeigt, dass deren Beziehung eine breite Palette von Konflikten inhärent ist, die auf der individuellen wie der gesellschaftlichen Ebene wirken und gerade im literarischen Diskurs immer wieder neu diskutiert werden. Vater und Sohn sind nicht einfach nur Garanten einer kontinuierlichen Genealogie, sie sind in ein Beziehungsgeflecht eingebunden, das von Unterordnung und psychosozialer Ähnlichkeit ebenso geprägt ist wie von Konkurrenz und individuellen Abgrenzungsbestrebungen. Diese vielfältigen Probleme werden in vielen Texten offensiv ausgetragen und in zum Teil geradezu abenteuerlichen Entwürfen zu Literatur geformt.

Book Synopsis Women Writers of the Middle Ages by : Peter Dronke
Download or read book Women Writers of the Middle Ages written by Peter Dronke and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1984-01-12 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gives a detailed picture of the contributions made by women writers to Western literature from the third century to the thirteenth. Many of the texts Peter Dronke presents and interprets have hitherto remained unknown, or virtually inaccessible; some have never been edited or translated before. The emphasis throughout is on personal testimonies, and on texts that have notable literary or intellectual interest. Thus the book affords many new insights into medieval literature, not only into the writings of renowned women such as Hrotsvitha or Heloise, but also into those of a number of neglected writers who are exceptional in their gifts and individuality. Already highly influential, Women Writers of the Middle Ages continues to be essential reading for specialists and students alike in medieval literature, medieval intellectual history, and women's studies.

Book Synopsis Les pratiques de l'écrit dans les abbayes cisterciennes by : Arnaud Baudin
Download or read book Les pratiques de l'écrit dans les abbayes cisterciennes written by Arnaud Baudin and published by Somogy éditions d'art. This book was released on 2016 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "La vitalité des recherches sur l'écrit cistercien ne s'est pas démentie au cours des dernières décennies ; elle s'est illustrée par de nouvelles éditions de sources, une attention accrue portée aux "pancartes" monastiques, documents longtemps réputés spécialité cistercienne, tandis que les chercheurs faisaient dialoguer fructueusement actes de la pratique et manuscrits de bibliothèque. Le neuvième centenaire de la fondation de Clairvaux a été l'occasion de soumettre la diversité du monde cistercien au prisme de ses écrits diplomatiques, administratifs et de gestion autour de trois axes de réflexion la production, la conservation et les manipulations. De la Normandie à la Lorraine, du Danemark au Portugal, les auteurs explorent les outils de production et de contrôle de la mémoire mis en place dans les monastères d'hommes et de femmes, entre le XIIe et le XVe siècle, au sein d'une même filiation ou en les confrontant à leur environnement proche (actes épiscopaux, fontevristes ou bénédictins). De ce "maquis d'écritures" surgit une variété de documents inédits et de techniques énigmatiques qui interrogent l'existence d'une spécificité cistercienne de l'écrit, la volonté réelle ou supposée d'uniformisation de l'écriture au sein de l'Ordre, la réappropriation des formes et des formules, l'influence des maisons-mères sur leur filles et le poids de l'environnement local auquel chaque monastère doit s'acclimater."--Page 4 of cover.
