Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A key argument of this book is that it is impossible to separate the growth of any one of the insular origin narratives from that of the larger corpus of historical and pseudohistorical writing which contained them. This initial chapter therefore presents the evidence for the textual connections between these works in one place, while the chapters to follow will analyze the historical, literary, and cultural implications of these connections. A crucial part of this discussion will of course centre around known connections between texts in the corpus of insular historical and pseudohistorical works, and so this chapter outlines the sources and later reuses of each major work under consideration. This survey is, by necessity, in part a synthesis of the work of previous scholars. It is presented here because while studies of the individual texts discussed below are generally well-aware of their connections to other works in the insular corpus, broader scholarship on the early medieval period still treats so-called 'Irish', 'Welsh', 'Anglo-Saxon' and 'Scottish' literary and historical traditions as disparate. Yet as Rix has noted, 'the understanding of the end product is enriched by making sense of the sources utilized to create its authority'. In compiling scholarship on the transcultural nature of the works which contained insular origin material and explicating the layers of textual connection between them, this chapter follows the methodology of scholars such as Goffart, Plassmann, Coumert, and Reimitz in overturning the common perception that the authors of these texts were working in proto-national isolation and instead revealing the textual connections that shaped the intellectual landscape of the early medieval insular region"--

The restraint of DiaVerse forces poets to use the purest forms of expression. 90 Two is ninety of Khalili’s DiaVerse poems, written over the last five years. He combines his poetic verses with digital artwork and imagery, each conveying a sensation of inspiration that came to life with each poem.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1883 edition. Excerpt: ... total amount expended up to that time being " 176, 6, 7i, {not including clothing, &c, received from home." * * *) He was graduated in the class of 1767, his diploma in Latin being dated "Nassau Hall on the day before the Callends of October, 1767," and signed by the Rev. William Tennent, pres.; Elihu Spinner, John Blair, John S. Brainerd, Johannes McQus, Richardus Treat, and Carolus Macknight. This diploma was, in 1875, in the hands of Dr. Otho Evans, of Franklin, Warren County, Ohio, whose mother was a granddaughter of the Rev. Wm. Schenck. After leaving college he studied theology with the Rev. "William Tennent at Freehold, New Jersey, and was licensed by the Presbytery of New Brunswick in 1770. During this time he was intimately associated with the family of one of the old Scotch Presbyterians, Robert Cumming, whilom High Sheriff of Monmouth County, who lived at Matealapau, in the vicinity of the Tennents, and with whom he for a time lived while prosecuting his theological studies, and whose daughter, Anna Cumming, he married on the 7th day of March, 1786. She was born at Monmouth, New Jersey, 3d May, 1750, and died at Franklin, Ohio, 23d June, 1838, "a mother of many children and as full of virtuous honors aB of years." Her grandmother was Catherine van Brugh, of New York city, who married first John Noble, an English gentleman, and married second, 23 August, 1738, the Rev. William Tennent, Jun. This fact may, to some extent, account for some of the movements of the Rev. Mr. Schenck, as, in 1777, he went to Bucks County, Pa., the seat of the famous "log college," founded by the Rev. "William Tennent, Sen. The year succeeding his entry into the ministry, in 1771, he was ordained pastor of the Presbyterian church at Allentown, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before the invention of photography, prints were the principal means for reproducing and disseminating visual information. The engraver did for the image what the printer did for the written word, and painters were compared and judged on the evidence of prints of their work. In this authoritative and innovative book, Timothy Clayton describes the growth of the print trade in England during the eighteenth century, a period during which Britain emerged from artistic obscurity to dominate the international print market. This highly readable account offers a fascinating tour of the principal outlets for prints in London, the provinces, and the British colonies over a period of more than one hundred years. Clayton considers the variety of published material -- history prints, topography, portraiture, satire, propaganda -- the channels of distribution, and the various audiences to which prints were addressed. He examines the effect of the sudden and dramatic influx of foreign prints in the second decade of the eighteenth century and traces the way in which English engravers and printsellers attempted to establish a national industry. Prints were used to promote English entertainments, luxury industries, landscapes, gardens, and paintings and to demonstrate the increasing wealth and sophistication of the English nation. Their influence over the commercialization of leisure and the development of luxury manufacturing was considerable. By the 1760s, British engravers and painters were winning recognition and establishing a new reputation on the Continent through the dissemination of their work. During the following decade, the enthusiasm for English prints developed into full-blown anglomania, and engraved scenes from English literature and national history were displayed on walls throughout Europe.

Book excerpt: Kate Winter teaches dog owners how to train their canine companions. During her spare time, accompanied by her Lab, Dakota, she explores the woods and beaches on foot or horseback. She's worried that something's happening in her relationship, but she can't get her girlfriend Trish to talk to her about it. Faith Hutchins recently lost her sight after a terrible outdoor accident. She's dealt with her anger, depression, and blindness primarily on her own. A seeing-eye dog would help alleviate her reliance on anyone else, but the guide dog school has been unsuccessful in providing her with one. On a mission to find someone who will train a dog specifically for her, she ultimately zeroes in on Kate. They say lightning never strikes the same place twice. But positive lightning is notoriously unpredictable and can ignite a fire when and where least expected . . . no matter who's in its path."

This book was released on 1988-05-31 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English Franciscan philosopher and theologian, Adam of Wodeham (d. 1358), was a disciple and friend of William of Ockham; he was also a student of Walther Chatton. Nevertheless, he was an independent thinker who did not hesitate to criticize his former teachers - Ockham sporadically and benevolently, Chatton, frequently and aggressively. Since W odeham developed his own doctrinal position by a thorough critical examination of current opinions, the first part of this introduc tion briefly outlines the positions of the chief figures in the English controversy over indivisibles. The second part of the introduction pre sents a summary of Wodeham's views in the Tractatus de indivisibilibus, lists the contents of the treatise, and considers the question of its date and its chronological position in the context of Wodeham's other works. In the third part, the editorial procedures used here are set forth. 1. THE INDIVISIBILIST CONTROVERSY In the literature of the 13th and 14th centuries, the term 'indivisible' refers to a simple, un extended entity. Consequently, these indivisibles are not physical atoms but either mathematical points, temporal instants or indivisibles of motion, usually called mutata esse. I THOMAS BRADWARDINE (d. 1349), roughly contemporary with Wodeham, classified the positions it was possible to take regarding indivisibles. He described his own view as the common view, that of "Aristotle, A verroes, and most of the moderns," according to which a "continuum was not composed of atoms (athomis) but of parts divisible without end.
