  • Antiquarianism: a Reinterpretation Antiquarianism, the Early Modern
    Antiquarianism: A Reinterpretation Kelsey Jackson Williams Accepted for publication in Erudition and the Republic of Letters, published by Brill. Antiquarianism, the early modern study of the past, occupies a central role in modern studies of humanist and post-humanist scholarship. Its relationship to modern disciplines such as archaeology is widely acknowledged, and at least some antiquaries--such as John Aubrey, William Camden, and William Dugdale--are well-known to Anglophone historians. But what was antiquarianism and how can twenty-first century scholars begin to make sense of it? To answer these questions, the article begins with a survey of recent scholarship, outlining how our understanding of antiquarianism has developed since the ground-breaking work of Arnaldo Momigliano in the mid-twentieth century. It then explores the definition and scope of antiquarian practice through close attention to contemporaneous accounts and actors’ categories before turning to three case-studies of antiquaries in Denmark, Scotland, and England. By way of conclusion, it develops a series of propositions for reassessing our understanding of antiquarianism. It reaffirms antiquarianism’s central role in the learned culture of the early modern world; and offers suggestions for avenues which might be taken in future research on the discipline. Antiquarianism: The State of the Field The days when antiquarianism could be dismissed as ‘a pedantic love of detail, with an indifference to the result’ have long since passed; their death-knell was rung by Arnaldo Momigliano in his pioneering 1950 ‘Ancient History and the Antiquarian’.1 Momigliano 1 asked three simple questions: What were the origins of antiquarianism? What role did it play in the eighteenth-century ‘reform of historical method’? Why did the distinction between antiquarianism and history collapse in the nineteenth century? The answers he gave continue to underpin the study of the discipline today.

  • Thomas Pope Blount and the Scope of Early Modern Learning
    Canon before Canon, Literature before Literature: Thomas Pope Blount and the Scope of Early Modern Learning Kelsey Jackson Williams abstract Sir Thomas Pope Blount (1649–1697), an English essayist and country gentleman, published two major literary biobibliographies, Censura celebriorum authorum (1690) and De re poetica (1694). In this essay, Kelsey Jackson Williams discusses the texts within the genre of historia literaria and contemporary under- standings of literature. In doing so, he engages with current debates surrounding canon formation and the shifts in disciplinary boundaries that followed in the wake of the Battle of the Books. Early modern canons and definitions of “literature” dif- fered radically from their modern equivalents, and a close reading of Blount’s work offers a window onto this forgotten literary landscape. keywords: historia liter- aria; biobibliography; Battle of the Books; John Locke; development of literary canon john locke’s library has long been recognized as a site of extensive anno- tation, commonplacing, and organization.1 In particular, Locke interleaved Thomas Hyde’s 1674 catalogue of the Bodleian Library and, using his own system of shelf marks, re-created it as an inventory of his own collection.2 Less well known are Locke’s annotations in another product of late seventeenth-century scholarship, Thomas Pope Blount’s 1690 Censura celebriorum authorum.3 The Censura contains brief biographies 1.

  • Hymns of Synesius of Cyrene in Their Christian and Platonist Context
    Hymns of Synesius of Cyrene in Their Christian and Platonist Context By Dachi Pachulia Submitted to Central European University Department of Philosophy In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy Supervisor: István Bodnár Budapest, Hungary 2019 CEU eTD Collection i Abstract The thesis intends to promote the importance of Synesius of Cyrene as a thinker and a philosopher in general. First of all, this is achieved by stressing his influence on Proclus on the one hand and Pseudo-Dionysius on the other. Therefore, the thesis suggests, that in the Athenian philosophical school Christian Neoplatonist philosophers, such as Synesius were indeed read and discussed. The suggestion continues that it was under Proclus that the author of Dionysian corpus got acquainted with Synesius’ writings. But while Proclus was probably ignoring the Christian tenet of Synesius’ philosophy, Ps.-Dionysius held this very nature of Synesius’ thought the most important to “Christianize Proclus”, in other words to construct his own Christian metaphysical system to match it with the pagan counterpart. Thus, in the first chapter of the thesis, I stress the influence of Synesius’ hymns on Proclus’ hymns and Ps.-Dionysius’ letters. The second and third chapter of the thesis intends to further emphasize the uniqueness of Synesius’ thought. It starts with the rethinking of Theiler’s and Hadot’s thesis on Christian Platonist philosophers, who were denying the originality of their thought by making them dependent on Porphyry, the student of Plotinus. In the third chapter, I try to reconstruct the metaphysics of Synesius’ hymns concentrating on the anthropology of the hymns that I argue to be Christocentric in its nature.

Noah’s Ark or the Barque of St. Peter represent the community of the saved and redeemed. However, since Plato at least, the ship also symbolizes the Greek polis and later the Roman Empire. From the fourth century ‒ the Constantinian era ‒ on, these traditions merged. Christianity was made the state religion. Over the course of a millennium, church and state united in a religiously homogeneous, yet not always harmonious, Corpus Christianum. In the sixteenth century, the Reformation led to disenchantment with the sacred character of both church and state as mediators indispensible for religious and secular salvation.

  • Faith and Reason (Pdf)
    *OREDOÃ&KDQJHÃDQGÃWKHÃ4XHVWÃIRUÃ3URYLGHQFHÃ $Ã5HIOHFWLRQÃRQÃ5HOLJLRXVÃDQGÃ(WKLFDOÃ$VSHFWVÃRIÃ*OREDOÃ&KDQJHÃ Otto SCHAEFER, Potsdam (Germany) 1 Introduction Theology is always linked to a specific faith, in my case to the Protestant branch of Christian faith. On the other hand, theological thinking participates in a form of rationality which makes such traditions communicable and opens them for debate. In this sense, even particular religious experiences and patterns of interpretation represent a treasure of humankind containing as they do existential explorations and existential insights. So they can help in formulating questions and shaping intuitions even in a different ideological context. Religious questions are expressions of general questions relating to human life; this is the reason for phenomena like inculturation of religions, interreligious dialogue and the reciprocal influence of theology and philosophy. So I hope that a theologian’s contribution to a scientific gathering can be useful. Faith and reason form a constitutive tension for all our reflections here. The term of faith, as I use it here, means every profound existential conviction, be it a part of any constituted religious system or not. Any system of values and any system of global interpretation can be described in terms of such a tension between faith and reason. “Faith” means personal implication and personal appropriation, finally personal commitment to affirmed convictions. “Reason” refers to generalizing interpretation, to mediation and legitimation of subjective experiences and convictions. Faith without reason is fanatical, reason without faith is sceptical. A sceptical attitude doesn’t implicate one’s own existence and one’s own person and remains in distant and relativistic indecision. Contrarily, a fanatical attitude doesn’t expose itself to the challenge of plurality and judges general human conditions by the standard of a particular faith.

  • Early Sources Informing Leon Battista Alberti's De Pictura
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Alberti Before Florence: Early Sources Informing Leon Battista Alberti’s De Pictura A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Art History by Peter Francis Weller 2014 © Copyright by Peter Francis Weller 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Alberti Before Florence: Early Sources Informing Leon Battista Alberti’s De Pictura By Peter Francis Weller Doctor of Philosophy in Art History University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Charlene Villaseñor Black, Chair De pictura by Leon Battista Alberti (1404?-1472) is the earliest surviving treatise on visual art written in humanist Latin by an ostensible practitioner of painting. The book represents a definitive moment of cohesion between the two most conspicuous cultural developments of the early Renaissance, namely, humanism and the visual arts. This dissertation reconstructs the intellectual and visual environments in which Alberti moved before he entered Florence in the curia of Pope Eugenius IV in 1434, one year before the recorded date of completion of De pictura. For the two decades prior to his arrival in Florence, from 1414 to 1434, Alberti resided in Padua, Bologna, and Rome. Examination of specific textual and visual material in those cities – sources germane to Alberti’s humanist and visual development, and thus to the ideas put forth in De pictura – has been insubstantial. This dissertation will therefore present an investigation into the sources available to Alberti in Padua, Bologna and Rome, and will argue that this material helped to shape the prescriptions in Alberti’s canonical Renaissance tract. By more fully accounting for his intellectual and artistic progression before his arrival in Florence, this forensic reconstruction aims to fill a gap in our knowledge of Alberti’s formative years and thereby underline impact of his early career upon his development as an art theorist.

  • Pennsylvania Magazine of HISTORY and BIOGRAPHY
    THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY Quaker Humanist James Logan as a Classical Scholar HETHER on the banks of the Seine, the Thames, or the Delaware, intellectuals in the early eighteenth century Wtended to line up on one side or the other of the great battle of the books—the “quarrel of the ancients and moderns.” James Logan, Philadelphia's premier scholar, as well as her leading fur merchant and politician, stood with the defenders of the classics. "I confess, as I advance in years," he wrote in 1718, "the ancients still gain upon me, and the Greeks particularly. ."1 Not that he scorned contemporary literature or made light of modern science. On the contrary, he read the latest books of Addison and Steele, Pope and Gay, as soon as copies could reach America; and he not only appreciated the work of men like Newton, Huygens, and Linnaeus, but actually contributed to the progress of modern science through his own experiments and his patronage of young scientists like Benjamin Franklin, John Bartram, and Thomas Godfrey.2 Yet in 1 Logan to Josiah Martin, Oct. 26, 1718, Letter Book (1717-1731), 39, Logan Papers, The Historical Society of Pennsylvania.

März dieses Jahres vor der Dänischen Akademie der Wissenschaften (Det Kongelige Danske Videnskabernes Selskab) in Kopenhagen gehalten habe. Die Ausgabe des spätantiken griechischen Lexi­ kons des Hesych von Alexandreia ist ein altes Editionsprojekt der "Kommission for Corpus Lexicographorum Graecorum" jener Akademie. Zwar habe nicht ich den Text ediert, aber ich war von der Akademie und der Kommission für den dritten Band der Ausgabe, der 2005 erschienen ist, zum tilsynforende ("Auf­ sichtsführenden") bestellt und habe selbst einen Teil der Einleitung bestritten. Daher mag es berechtigt sein, daß ich auch hier davon berichte, hauptsächlich sind es aber die Umstände, unter denen die jetzt vorliegenden drei Bände zustan­ de gekommen sind, an denen ein Stück interessanter und erschütternder Gelehr­ tengeschichte des 20. Jahrhunderts abzulesen ist). Die Überlieferungs- und Editionsgeschichte des Hesych2 ist sehr spannend und besonders in ihren letzten Phasen dramatisch und schicksalsschwer.

Leben Hermann Samuel Reimarus wurde am 22. Dezember 1694 (alten Stils; dies entspricht dem 2.
