  • Nachruf Prof. Dr. Eugen Ewig
    322 Nachrufe Eugen Ewig 18.5.1913 – 1.3.2006 Im hohen Alter, im 93. Lebensjahr, starb Eugen Ewig am 1. März 2006, einer der international angesehensten Mediävisten; er war seit 1979 korrespondierendes Mit- glied der Bayerischen Akademie der Wis- senschaften. 1913 in Bonn geboren, besuchte er das humanistische Beethoven-Gymnasium und studierte in seiner Heimatstadt von 1931– 1937 Geschichte und zuletzt Romanistik, vornehmlich bei Wilhelm Levison und Ernst Robert Curtius. Mit Curtius hat bereits viel zu tun, was Ewigs späteres Wirken nachhaltig kennzeichnete: „Eine auf- keimende Neigung zu Frankreich hat er gefestigt, mein Frankreichbild hat er geprägt und durch die Schärfung des Blicks für Zusammenhänge mit der geistigen Tradition der Antike und der lateinischen Literatur vertieft“ (Ewig in seiner Erwiderung auf seine Wahl in die Rheinisch-Westfälische Akademie der Wissenschaften 1978; die Laudatio hielt Theodor Schief- fer: Jahrbuch 1978 der Akademie, S. 63). Von Levison, seinem jüdischen, 1935 aus dem Amt gedrängten Lehrer, erhielt Ewig als sein letzter Schüler noch sein Dissertationsthema, wurde von ihm auch betreut, doch für die Prüfungsformalien musste Anfang 1936 bereits der Neuhistoriker Max Braubach einspringen. Ewig hatte Levison stets die Treue gehalten und ihn auch bei seiner späten Ausreise nach England in mutiger, für ihn selbst gefährlicher Weise unterstützt. Das Dissertationsthema, das der Altmeister Levison Ewig anvertraute, handelte über einen Autor des 15. Jahrhunderts: „Die Anschauungen des Karthäusers Dionysius von Roermond über den christlichen Ordo in Staat und Kirche“, erschienen 1936. Aus gesundheitlichen Gründen vom Militär freigestellt, als liberaler Geist, als überzeugter Katholik und ohne jede Bindung an die NSDAP waren etwaige Gedanken an eine Hochschullaufbahn obsolet.

  • The Elements of Abbreviation in Medieval Latin Paleography
    The elements of abbreviation in medieval Latin paleography BY ADRIANO CAPPELLI Translated by David Heimann and Richard Kay UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LIBRARIES, 1982 University of Kansas Publications Library Series, 47 The elements of abbreviation in medieval Latin paleography BY ADRIANO CAPPELLI Translated by David Heimann and Richard Kay UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LIBRARIES, 1982 Printed in Lawrence, Kansas, U.S.A. by the University of Kansas Printing Service PREFACE Take a foreign language, write it in an unfamiliar script, abbreviating every third word, and you have the compound puzzle that is the medieval Latin manuscript. For over two generations, paleographers have taken as their vade mecum in the decipherment of this abbreviated Latin the Lexicon abbreviaturarum compiled by Adriano Cappelli for the series "Manuali Hoepli" in 1899. The perennial value of this work undoubtedly lies in the alphabetic list of some 14,000 abbreviated forms that comprises the bulk of the work, but all too often the beginner slavishly looks up in this dictionary every abbreviation he encounters, when in nine cases out of ten he could ascertain the meaning by applying a few simple rules. That he does not do so is simply a matter of practical convenience, for the entries in the Lexicon are intelligible to all who read Latin, while the general principles of Latin abbreviation are less easily accessible for rapid consultation, at least for the American student. No doubt somewhere in his notes there is an out­ line of these rules derived from lectures or reading, but even if the notes are at hand they are apt to be sketchy; for reference he would rather rely on the lengthier accounts available in manuals of paleography, but more often than not he has only Cappelli's dictionary at his elbow.

    i 11 Parallel Lives: Plutarch's Lives, Lapo da Castiglionchio the Younger (1405-1438) and the Art of Italian Renaissance Translation CHRISTOPHER S. CELENZA Before his premature death in 1438 of an outbreak of plague in Ferrara, the Florentine humanist and follower of the papal curia Lapo da Castiglionchio the Younger left behind three main bodies of work in Latin, all still either unedited or incompletely edited: his own self-collected letters, a small number of prose treatises, and a sizeable corpus of Greek-to-Latin translations. This paper concerns primarily the last of these three aspects of his work and has as its evidentiary focus two autograph manuscripts that contain inter alia final versions of Lapo's Latin translations of Plutarch's Lives of Themistocles, Artaxerxes, and Aratus. In addition, however, to studying Lapo's translating techniques, this paper will address chiefly the complexities of motivation surrounding Lapo's choice of dedicatees for these translations. The range of circumstances will demonstrate, I hope, the lengths to which a young, little-known humanist had to go to support himself in an environment where there was as yet no real fixed, institutional place for a newly created discipline. Lapo and Translation: Patronage, Theory, and Practice Of the three areas mentioned, Lapo's translations represent the most voluminous part of his oeuvre and in fact it is to his translations that he owes his modem reputation. But why did this young humanist devote so much energy to translating? And why were Plutarch's Lives such an important part of his effort? An earlier version of this paper was delivered as an Oldfather Lecture at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign on 8 November 1996.

    “Year of the Eucharist”—The Communion of Saints—Fr. Steve Lape God right along with us as we pray, sing and rejoice in God’s eternal love & mercy. We are all one family in Christ, as we hope to someday be forever where these saints are (in Heaven with God), and as the saints in Heaven pray for us to stay close to Christ & join them. As St. Bernard, the 12th century abbot, once said in a sermon: “Calling the saints to mind inspires, or rather arouses in us, above all else, a longing to enjoy As we continue to celebrate the “Year of the their company, so desirable in itself. We long to share Eucharist” in our diocese until June 2018, it’s in the citizenship of heaven, to dwell with the spirits of important to reflect on why celebrating Mass is so the blessed, to join the assembly of patriarchs, the central to our Catholic life.

In short, we long to be united in and All Souls Day on Nov. 2nd, it’s fitting to think happiness with all the saints… Therefore, we should about the Eucharist in terms of being a “communion of aim at attaining this glory with a wholehearted and saints.” It’s an expression found in the Apostles Creed, prudent desire.” (from The Liturgy of the Hours, Vol.
