Palabras clave: Manuscritos, Pedro Juan Núñez, correspondencia Mayans. CONTRIBUTION TO THE HISTORY OF THE MISCELLANEA PHILOLOGICA OF PEDRO JUAN NÚÑEZ Abstract: This study aims to analyze the correspondence between the Mayans brothers and the scholars Francisco Cerdá and José Vega Sentmenat, in order to reconstruct the history of the manuscripts in Miscellanea Philologica, written by the Valencian humanist Pedro Juan Nuñez. Particularly, it focuses on the period going from the donation by Besora to Carmelitas Descalzos library in Barcelona to Jaime Villanueva’s library viewing at the beginning of the 19th century. Keywords: Manuscripts, Pedro Juan Núñez, correspondece Mayans. Toribio Fuente Cornejo / Anales RACV nº 87 (2012) / ISSN: 1130-426X, pp. 9-22 13 En un trabajo reciente titulado “Notas bibliográficas sobre Pedro Juan Núñez, hu- manista valenciano”1, el Profesor Juan María Núñez trazó la historia de los cuatro manuscritos que configuran los Miscellanea Philologica de Pedro Juan Núñez (vol 1. Institutiones oratoriae ex variis scriptoribus ac praesertim ex Hermogene, ms. BNM 9153; vol. II. Praecepta ad epistolas artificio contexendas atque illustrandas, ms. BUB 1185; vol. III. De historia Romana, BNM 9154; y vol IV. Comentarios latinos a la geografía de Dionisio Afri- cano, ms. BUB 1003), desde la donación de Don José Gerónimo Besora hasta la distribución actual de los mismos en las Bibliotecas Universitaria de Barcelona y la Nacional de Madrid. En este trabajo queremos, a partir de la correspondencia de los hermanos Mayans i Siscar, Gregorio y Juan Antonio, que ahora se puede consultar gracias a la edición de la Biblioteca Valenciana Digital2, con los eruditos Francisco Cerdà y Rico y José Vega Sentmenat3, aportar nuevos datos a la historia de las mencionadas obras, relati- vos al periodo que va desde la donación de Besora hasta la visita de Jaime Villanueva a la biblioteca de los PP. Carmelitas Descalzos de Barcelona, de la que informa a su hermano por carta recogida en su monumental Viage literario por las Iglesias de España4. 1 NÚÑEZ GONZÁLEZ, Juan María, “Notas bibliográficas sobre Pedro Juan Núñez, humanista valenciano”, Liburna 4 (2011), pp. 257-263. 2 Se puede acceder a esta edición a través de <www.bivaldi.gva.es> 3 La correspondencia de los hermanos Mayans con Francisco Cerdá y Rico, copiada por Serrano Morales, bibliote- cario del Ayuntamiento de Valencia, fue publicada por Menéndez Pelayo en la Revista de Archivos, Bibliotecas y Museos, en los años 1905-6; la mantenida con el erudito catalán José Vega Sentmenat, también de manera incompleta, se publicó en la Revista crítica y literaria correspondiente al año 1901.

José Gerónimo Besora a los Carmelitas Descalzos de Barcelona, que cuenta con cierto detalle Don Félix Torres Amat en su obra Memorias para ayudar a formar un diccionario crítico de los escritores catalanes y dar alguna idea de la antigua y moderna literatura de Cataluña5, publicada en 1836. El canónigo Besora quiso donar la colección de libros que había reunido, compuesta por 5577 tomos6 “de buena calidad”, a la Academia de Barcelona, pero con ciertas condiciones, que se “despreciaron”, por lo que hizo la donación a favor a los Carmelitas Descalzos para que el público disfrutase de tan importante colec- ción7. El propio Besora redactó el testamento en 1654 que entregó al notario barce- lonés Bartolomé Plea8. A la muerte del canónigo ilerdense ocurrida el 14 o el 15 de febrero de 1665, la colección, en su mayor parte manuscritos, pasó a la Biblioteca de los Carmelitas según consta en el recibo, en poder del notario barcelonés don Francisco Llauder, que firmó el convento ese mismo año. En 1784 el erudito José Vega Sentmenat escribe a Juan Antonio Mayans, el hermano menor de los Mayans, una carta con fecha del 16 de marzo comunicándole el des- cubrimiento de unas obras de Pedro Juan Núñez relativas a traducciones de oracio- nes y escolios, que , sin duda, serían del agrado de D. Gregorio9, pero sin ninguna otra indicación: “de Juan Núñez tengo que decir cosas que disminuyen la pena que tenía D. Gregorio en su Bibliotheca, i capítulo será para otro correo, pues éste escapa, es un descubrimiento que he hecho de Núñez de traducciones de oraciones de Cicerón i scholios ricos, etc., que merecen lugar al lado del que acaba de hacer el Sr. Cerdá”10. Una noticia de la que Juan Antonio dará cuenta inmediata a Cerdà: “D.

Cuando el menor de los Mayans escribía estas líneas ya Vega Sentmenat había to- mado la pluma, la carta tiene fecha del 20 de marzo, para describir con detalle, es la primera descripción que conocemos, los dos códices de Núñez que había descu- bierto en la biblioteca de los Descalzos.

I de los Miscellanea Philologica, dice: “en la bibliotheca de los Descalzos de ésta, bajo la letra O, nº. 396, hay un códice en folio manuscrito, que contiene: Institutiones oratoriae ex variis scriptoribus ac praesertim ex Hermogene, auctore Petro Iohanne Nunnezio, valentino.

In 1814 it remained largely French-speaking, though it had been politically British for 600 years. The island's only town, St Peter Port (which in 1814 accommodated over half the population) had during the previous century developed a thriving commercial sector with strong links to England, whose cultural influence it began to absorb. The rural hinterland was, by contrast, characterised by a traditional autarkic regime more redolent of pre­ industrial France. By 1914, the population had doubled, but St Peter Port's share had fallen to 43 percent.

Részben ennek hatására egyre szélesebb körben válik elfogadottá, hogy nemcsak a vállalatok, hanem a területi egységek is verse- nyeznek egymással. Ezen felismerésnek köszönhetıen a területi versenyben való helytállást kifejezı regioná- lis versenyképesség fogalma mára a regionális tudomány egyik központi fogalmává vált. Nemcsak a témakör elméleti kérdéseivel foglalkozó kutatók, hanem a gazdaságpolitikusok egy része is a versenyké- pesség, mint „hívószó” köré szövik programjaikat. Többek között az Európai Unióban a harmonikus, kiegyensúlyozott területi fejlıdés megvalósítását (vagyis a területi különbségek mérséklését) célzó regio- nális politika évek óta a régiók versenyképességének javítását tartja a kohézió és a felzárkóztatás egyik legfontosabb, leghatékonyabb eszközének. Habár a területi verseny és a regionális versenyképesség a kutatások elıterében áll, ennek ellenére a fogalomkör még napjainkban is viták tárgyát képezi, a külön- féle elméleti alapokon álló irányzatok képviselıi eltérı módon közelítenek a kérdéskörhöz.

  • The Book of Ebenezer Le Page and Guernsey Literature and History
    ‘THE ROCK WHENCE YE ARE HEWN’: THE BOOK OF EBENEZER LE PAGE AND GUERNSEY LITERATURE AND HISTORY It say in the Bible ‘Look unto the rock whence ye are hewn, and to the hole of the pit whence ye are digged.’ Well, those people are the rock whence I was hewn, and the hole of the pit whence I was digged. I haven’t said nothing about my cousins, and the cousins of my cousins; but then half the island is my cousins, and the cousins of my cousins. The Book of Ebenezer Le Page was published posthumously in 1981 and was highly praised on publication by such major contemporary novelists as John Fowles and William Golding. The novel sold well and created an interest in Guernsey life that it had seldom attracted before. Doubtless the vivid local colour of the book and its evocation of Guernsey’s ‘otherness’ within modern British and European culture had a large part to do with its success. The circumstantial details of the publication of the novel o·er the stu· of good journalistic copy. The Book of Ebenezer Le Page is Edwards’s only published novel. He began it when he was in his late sixties; he made a few unsuccessful attempts to publish it when he was in his early seventies; and it was finally published in 1981, five years after his death in 1976. Very little else is known of Edwards’s life. He was born on Guernsey in 1899, but left the island as a young man to study at Bristol University.

  • 'The Spell of Sarnia'1
    Goodall – Guernsey Fiction 1 ‘THE SPELL OF SARNIA’ Fictional Representations of the Island of Guernsey PETER GOODALL University of Southern Queensland, Toowoomba <[email protected]> Abstract Although there is nothing that resembles a comprehensive literary history of Guernsey, or of any of the islands of the English Channel, Guernsey has been the subject of many interesting representations in fiction. Two great novels dominate this tradition: Victor Hugo’s Les Travailleurs de la mer (Toilers of the Sea) (1866) and G. B. Edwards’s The Book of Ebenezer Le Page (1981), and these novels have a powerful intertextual relationship. One or two novels written in between are major works of literary art, for example Mervyn Peake’s Mr. Pye (1953), but most of the other eighty or so novels are works of popular fiction in a variety of genres and modes, especially the historical romance and the adventure story. On the whole, these novels rehearse a limited number of common themes: a romantic conception of Guernsey’s history, the physical beauty of the island coupled with a sense of the dangers of its dramatic coastline and the sea that surrounds it, and the prominence of religion in island society, in terms of both Christian sectarianism and the underground presence into modern times of paganism and witchcraft. Keywords Guernsey, Channel Islands, Hugo, Edwards, Peake, religion Introduction Guernsey is one of the islands of the English Channel––the others main ones being Alderney, Sark, and Jersey––that together with some smaller islands and islets make up the group referred to in Britain as “the Channel Islands”.
