Gregory the Great - John Moorhead - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Gregory the Great - John Moorhead - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Gregory''s life culminated in his holding the office of pope (590 - 604). He is generally regarded as one of the outstanding figures in the long line of popes, and by the late ninth century had come to be known as ''the Great''. Along with Ambrose, Jerome and Augustine, he played a critical role in the history of his time, while during the middle ages his intellectual influence was second only to that of Augustine. This volume provides a biographical and intellectual context to Gregory the Great, and new translations of his most influential writings.

Consul of God (Routledge Revivals) - Jeffrey Richards - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Consul of God (Routledge Revivals) - Jeffrey Richards - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Gregory the Great, whose reign spanned the years between 590 and 604 A.D., was one of the most remarkable figures of the early medieval Papacy. Aristocrat, administrator, teacher and scholar, he ascended the throne of St Peter at a time of acute crisis for the Roman Church. Consul of God , first published in 1980, revises the traditional picture of Pope Gregory. It examines how he organised the central administration of the Papacy and his unremitting war on heresy and schism. Gregory also pioneered a new pastoral tradition in learning, promoted monasticism, and trained the episcopate. Jeffrey Richards demonstrates that Gregory was both a conservative and a pioneer, and just as his reign looked forward to the medieval world it also looked back to a vanishing world of imperial unity. He was thus the last representative of those Roman senators whose fortitude and energy he emulated, earning the epitaph ‘Consul of God’.

Ashkelon 3 - J. David Schloen - Bog - Pennsylvania State University Press - Plusbog.dk

Ashkelon 3 - J. David Schloen - Bog - Pennsylvania State University Press - Plusbog.dk

The Leon Levy Expedition to Ashkelon continues its final report series with a study of the city destroyed in the campaign of the Babylonian king Nebuchadrezzar in December of 604 B.C. In this era, Ashkelon’s markets linked land routes from the southeast to a web of international Mediterranean merchants, and this volume describes the Iron Age bazaar where shopkeepers sold the goods of Egypt, Greece, Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Judah. In addition, in another part of the city, a winery produced a homegrown vintage for distribution abroad. This volume spans more than 800 full-color pages illustrating the range of imported and local artifacts recovered by more than ten years of excavation. The twenty-eight chapters, by more than two dozen contributors, combine to describe Ashkelon’s pivotal role in the economy and politics of the late seventh century B.C. As such, Ashkelon 3: The Seventh Century B.C. is a indispensable resource for those interested in the Iron Age history of the Eastern Mediterranean and the study of trade and economy in the ancient world.

Charters of St Paul's, London - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

Charters of St Paul's, London - - Bog - Oxford University Press - Plusbog.dk

St Paul''s was the principal church of London from its foundation in A. D. 604. This volume is an edition of all the surviving documentary material from St Paul''s from the seventh century to 1066, with expert analysis and commentary on the history of the bishops and the cathedral community within the city and diocese, considered against the background of London''s history during this period. The medieval archives of St Paul''s suffered at times from neglect, and as a result the majority of the Anglo-Saxon charters of the bishop and chapter are preserved only as fragments in the notebooks of two seventeenth-century scholars who studied a crucial manuscript before it disappeared at the time of the Commonwealth. These excerpts are here edited with full diplomatic and historical commentary, which makes it possible to resurrect to some extent the full documents. The edition of the charters is prefaced by an extended introduction which provides an important new synthesis of the history of London and St Paul''s in the Anglo-Saxon period, complete with an extensive bibliography.

Word, Image and Experience - Giselle De Nie - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Word, Image and Experience - Giselle De Nie - Bog - Taylor & Francis Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Focusing on the works of bishop Gregory of Tours (539-594) and the poet-hagiographer Venantius Fortunatus (540-c.604), in later life bishop of Poitiers, Dr de Nie gives in these innovative studies a new understanding of the miracle stories around which much of their writing revolves, but whose bizarre dynamics appear to defy sense, which has often resulted in their dismissal as useless to the historian. These authors'' perceptions of miracles - and their renderings of the human self-awareness through which miracles are perceived and happen - are analysed as attempts, mostly rooted in models from the Bible, to adjust the early Christian tradition so as to make sense of, and protect themselves in, the highly insecure environment of 6th-century Frankish Gaul. Drawing on modern anthropological and psychological studies, notably in the area of spiritual healing practices, as well as on philosophical and theological reflections about verbal and mental imagery, she demonstrates how these can be used to throw fresh light on late antique society and its spirituality, exploring views of mind, affectivity, body, sensory phenomena, symbols, and the perception of women as well as of the qualities of images, verbal language and texts. The volume includes five essays not previously published in English.

For his photo series “Words”, Japanese artist Koichiro Kimura attached a camera to the ceiling of his family home. For two years, the camera automatically took a picture every ten minutes, over 100. 000 photos in total. The resulting images - selected by Kimura - offer an unadulterated record of the life of a family. In the intimate photos, it seems like the scenery is already talking to us - showing us parents sleeping with their child, the kid taking a nap, the mother reading to her son. Perhaps there is no need for words. “If the photos allow you feel like you are looking at a picture book, as if you are looking down into and watching over the house of another family, then I’ve succeeded. ”— from the artist’s statementThe images in this series have been exhibited at the Epson Imaging Gallery Epsite in 2014, and received an honorable mention at the Canon New Century of Photography competition of the same year.
