Abstract:

The article presents an edition, prose translation, and commentary concerning a Humanist Greek poem composed by Michael Retell and published in Danzig in 1571. The poem is dedicated to the origin of the academic mace as a symbol of authority and power within the Danzig academic school (Gymnasium Dantiscanum). Through an analysis of this text, the study aims to shed light on some organisational aspects of the renowned Reformed school during its formative period and to highlight the contributions of a talented yet lesser-known Hellenist of the Polish Renaissance.

Three of the letters by Procopius of Gaza (ca. 463-ca. 536), the most important representative of the School of Gaza, mention the shoes Procopius received from his friend Diodorus, a lawyer (scholastichos) at Caesarea. A comparison with other letters by Procopius, the fact that he defines Diodorus’s shoes as ‘unrhythmical’ and ‘without Muses’ and, especially, the references to Herodotus and Attic comedy contained in the text suggest that Diodorus’s ‘shoes’ may have been short prose or verse compositions, carelessly written in Attic Greek and in the tone of ancient comedy.

Abstract:

Bede, reflecting on the success of the Canterbury school set up by Theodore of Tarsus remarked: “some of their students still alive today are as proficient in Latin and Greek as in their native tongue” [trans. Colgrave and Mynors 1969, 335]. By the time we get to the court of Alfred two hundred years later, there had been a famous decline in learning from which Greek, as a language, had not yet recovered. However, there remained a strong interest in Greek as a sacred language in liturgies, prayers and magical charms, and later in hermeneutic poetry. Theodore’s influence was not limited to Gree

A Little Greek Reader by James Morwood and Stephen Anderson forms a companion volume to A Little Latin Reader by Mary English and Georgia Irby (though one might be seduced into thinking from the cover illustration and italic title print that this is a volume from the JACT Reading Greek stable). The twenty-plus chapters focus on different points of Greek grammar (for example, ‘Indirect Statement’ [64–74] and ‘Result Clauses’ [99–106]), prefaced with brief grammatical introductions and then illustrated with a selection of unadapted passages in prose and verse. Each passage is supported by lingui

Abstract:

This paper focuses on a Greek prose fable collection by the rhetorician Apthonius, comprising 40 fables. There are some entirely new fables, whereas others present variations of older fables. We might distinguish simplifications, contaminations, fabulizations (creating fables out of heterogeneous stories). The collection was destined for school practice. Hence the ubiquitous use of promythiums and epimythiums, as well as the very brevity of the fables. The fable collection is preceded by a short theoretical introduction, which is especially important because of its subdivision of fables in ter

The editor of the Translatio Vetus, Joanna Judycka, remarks of the anonymous translator that he knew his métier. Indeed, the translation, apart from some minor omissions, is extremely competent. Some of its various features mentioned by Dr. Judycka are, in fact, common to many medieval translations from the Greek into Latin; for example, the confusion of the present and future, the rendering of ἄν with the optative by utique with the future indicative, and the handling of the all-pervasive articular infinitive (so common and important in scientific prose).

Cultural d iscussions of D.H. Lawrence's creative legacy never cease, but his novelistic work remains the least considered in literary scholarship. A direct reading of D.H. Lawrence's works gives us every reason to note that a woman very often becomes the subject of his prose. The discourse on women in his texts is presented in the context of socio-cultural and family stereotypes of the female role. Analysis of recent research and articles on the works of D.H. Lawrence over the past three years has shown that his novels continue to be the main subject of scholarly consideration. Only a few lit

To study late antique dialogues means to recognize that the dialogue form, notably employed by Plato and Aristotle, did not exhaust itself with the philosophical schools of Classical and Hellenistic Greece, but emerged transformed and reinvigorated in the religiously diverse world of late antiquity. The Christians’ use of the dialogue form within religious debate resulted in a burgeoning activity of composition of prose d

Abstract This book examines how, when, and why four First World War poets engaged with Greek and Roman antiquity. Rupert Brooke, Wilfred Owen, Isaac Rosenberg, and Charles Sorley all died in the war. They came from diverse social, educational, and cultural backgrounds but for each of the writers engagement with classical material was decisive in shaping their war poetry. The world views and cultural hinterlands of Brooke and Sorley were framed by the Greek and Latin texts they had studied at school, whereas for Owen, who struggled with Latin, classical texts were a part of his aspirational lit

Abstract Aristotle (384-322 BC), Plato’s pupil and critic, and the greatest philosopher of Antiquity, left two distinct sets of writings: (i) dialogues and essays for the general public, none of which survive in full, though we have extracts in later writers and they were clearly influential; (ii) technical writings for the school, not only on logic and metaphysics but (e.g.) on poetics and zoology.

This chapter explains the methodical way in which very young pupils at the schools were taught Latin and Greek vocabulary, pronunciation, and grammar rules. Every night boys read and parsed short passages from classical texts or scripture, memorized each text and the relevant grammar rules. Several times a week they wrote short imitations in verse. Detailed lessons in prosody were an early and constant part of this instruction. The regularity of writing practice meant that a youngster might enter university having already composed close to 100 prose essays and the equivalent of 300 sonnets. An

His name and local connections provided him therefore with a more spacious background than his actual prospects seemed likely to perpetuate. Like many a thrifty squire’s son he

Due to the high asphaltene content, traditional bitumen is opaque and exhibits a deep black hue, attributable to the dense molecular matrix comprising asphaltenes, resins, and complex aromatic hydrocarbons.

Typically, all the bitumen grades widely used in Sri Lanka present several limitations for colored applications, which manifest inherent limitations for aesthetic functionalization, driven by the light-scattering and absorptive properties of th
