The Independence of the Celtic Church 121
THE INDEPENDENCE OF THE CELTIC CHURCH 121 THE INDEPENDENCE Oli" THE CELTIC CHURCH. BY THE REV. F. R. MONTGOMERY HITCHCOCK, D.D. THE CHURCH OF IRELAND: ITS CONNECTION WITH THE EAST; ITS DIFFERENCES FROM THE CHURCH OF ROME; ITS INDEPENDENCE. HE Church of Ireland until the twelfth century, generally T speaking, for six centuries, was a free and a nationa.J. Church. It had many points of contact with the Eastern Church which suggest an Eastern origin, and as many points of difference from the Roman Church which make a Roman origin impossible. In the first place, we shall briefly summarize the points of contact with the East. With regard to the monastic habitations, they resemble in plan, i.e. a group of small huts surrounded by a cashel, the communities of the East, like that of Mount Tabor, after which they were modelled. 1 The ascetic practices of the Irish hermit, such as suspending oneself by the armpits from hooks, a were imitations of the devices in self-torture discovered by the anchorites of the Syrian desert, probably in imitation of the Indian fakir's methods of self-torture. The smallness of the ·churches reminded travellers of those of Mount Athos and Asia Minor ; and the group of seven churches, e.g. at Glendalough and Clonmacnois suggests the " Seven Churches of Asia." The shape of the doors of the hermitages of SS. Flannan and Molua at Killaloe, broader at the threshold than at the head, resembles Egyptian style of architecture. The circle of the Irish cross is probably the loop of the crux ansata of the Egyptians, their circle of life being an emblem of immortality. -

A Genettean Reading of Petronius' Satyrica
NIHIL SINE RATIONE FACIO: A GENETTEAN READING OF PETRONIUS’ SATYRICA BY OLIVER SCHWAZER Thesis submitted to University College London for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy DEPARTMENT OF GREEK AND LATIN UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON 1 DECLARATION I, Oliver Schwazer, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signed: _________________________________ 2 ABSTRACT My thesis is a narratological analysis of Petronius’ Satyrica, particularly of the first section taking place in South Italy (Petron. 1–99), based on the methodology and terminology of Gérard Genette. There are two main objectives for the present study, which are closely connected to each other. One the one hand, I wish to identify and analyse the narrative characteristics of the Satyrica, including a selection of its literary models and the ways in which they are imitated or transformed and embedded in a new narrative schema, as well as the impact, which those texts that are connected to it have on our interpretation of the work. My narratological investigation of transtextuality in the case of Petronius includes: the assessment of matters of onymity and pseudonymity, rhematic and thematic titles, and the real and implied author in the sections on para-, inter- and metatexts; features belonging to the categories of narrative voice, mood, and time in the section on the narration (‘narrating’) and the récit (‘narrative’); the hypertextual relationships between the Satyrica and a selection of its potential models or sources in the section on the histoire (‘story’); and the architext or genre of the Satyrica. -
The Singer in the Ecclesiastical Hierarchy
The Singer in the Ecclesiastical Hierarchy The Early History of the Order Kaija Ravolainen STUDIA MUSICA 59 2014 © Kaija Ravolainen 2014 Doctoral dissertation University of the Arts Helsinki Sibelius Academy DocMus Doctoral School Studia Musica 59 Juvenes Print – Suomen Yliopistopaino Oy Tampere 2014 ISBN 978-952-5959-77-2 ISSN 0788-3757 Abstract The present study examines the origin and the early phases of the ecclesiastical order of the singer, nowadays generally called cantor. The constitutive regulations concerning the order derive from the late fourth century in the canons of the Synod of Laodicea and the Apostolic Constitutions. The order of the singer was established in eastern Christendom, while in the West, it never was added to the ranks of the ecclesiastical hierarchy. There, the members of other ecclesiastical grades answered for the psalmody, although allusions to singers occasionally appear. The study period extends to the seventh century CE. The development of both ecclesiastical singing and the hierarchy is treated from the beginning of the history of the Church. This is necessary for identifying the standing and the role of the singer, whose order emerges rather late in comparison with other ecclesiastical orders. One of the earlier orders belongs to the reader, who is considered to have preceded the singer, but also to have been one, as all reading was performed in recitation. The study also aims to define why a separate order of the singer was needed, if the reader was able to execute these duties as well. The materials include both normative – the canons of ecclesiastical councils and synods, and church orders – and descriptive sources, the latter consisting primarily of the texts of the patristic authors. -

Brief History of the Office of Verger
The Church of England Guild of Vergers THE OFFICE OF VERGER The office of Verger is an ancient one and, some might say, older than the Christian Church itself, possibly tracing its origins back to the Temple Servants of the Old Testament. The Jewish priesthood was limited to the tribe of Levi (third of the twelve sons of Jacob), and within that tribe further limited to one family, the house of Aaron (the first high priest). To the non-priestly Levites were given sundry lesser duties connected with the sacred office. The Priests and Levites were assisted by a third, specialist group of temple servants and "Gatekeepers". ‘The gatekeepers had been assigned to their positions of trust by David and Samuel the seer. They and their descendants were in charge of guarding the gates of the house of the Lord.... entrusted with the responsibility for the rooms and treasuries in the house of God. They would spend the night stationed round the house of God, because they had charge of the key for opening it each morning. Some of them were in charge of the articles used in the temple service; they counted them when they were brought in and when they were taken out. Others were assigned to take care of the furnishings and all the other articles of the sanctuary, as well as the flour and wine, and oil, incense and spices. But some of the priests took care of mixing the spices.’ [1 Chronicles 9; 22-31] The early Christian Church, therefore, appears to have had good precedent for appointing Ministers to care for the practical needs of the worshipping community, to guard the holy sites associated with Jesus’ life and ministry, and to assist the Elders and Presbyters. -
Servi Senes. the Role of Old Slaves at Rome
POLIS, Revista de ideas y formas políticas de la Antigüedad Clásica 8, 1996, pp. 275-293. SERVÍ SENES: THE ROLE OF OLD SLAVES AT ROME' Thomas Wiedemann University of Nottingham, U.K. It seems paradoxical that so little attention should have been paid by ancient historiaos to the question of how oíd people cared for themselves and were cared for in the Román world, when a fifth of the population is now over retirement age in most industrialised societies, and predictions suggest that within two or three decades it will rise to t^^'ice ihat proportion in some countries such as Germany. Yet even initial studies are few and far between. Moses Finley's article in Greece A Rome, developed from a lecture he gave at Nottingham in 1981, is only 16 pages long, and Georges Minois' book is hardl) lo be taken as a serious academic study. Valuable and ' This paper »as first gi\cn at the Catholic University, Leuven, Belgium, in March 1995. as pan of a colloquium on "Oud zijn in de Oudheid". My thanks to the organiser, Proí Enucl E>ben. and other participants at that colloquium for their comments, and to Prof Jurgen Malitz of the Catholic University, Eichstatt, Germany, for bibliographical advice. 275 respected exceptions are the work of Emiel Eyben in the context of the "Interdisciplinary Centre for the Study of the Life-Cycle in Antiquity", of Christian Gnilka on early Christian atttitudes to oíd age, and Wieclaw Sudor, mainly on medical altitudes towards ageing in antiquity^. But the comparative dearth of analyses of oíd age in antiquity cannot simply be ascribed to a lack of interest on the part of modem scholars: there is a remarkable shortage of primary evidence.
