Ricordi Storici E Pittorici D'italia Vol
RICORDI STORICI E PITTORICI D'ITALIA VOL. I Ferdinand Gregorovius L’ISOLA D’ELBA I. Nella state il battello a vapore del governo toscano, il Giglio, si reca una volta per settimana nell’isola d’Elba per portarvi la corrispondenza governativa, e passeggieri. Impiega circa cinque ore nel tragitto da Livorno, perchè tocca a Piombino, dove fanno breve fermata. Corre sempre lungo la posta toscana, godendosi la vista dell’ampia e verdeggiante maremma, la quale circoscritta all’orizzonte dai monti sovra cui sorge Volterra, digrada lentamente al mare. Si scorgono torri antiche ad ogni punto di sbarco, piccoli seni, alcune fabbriche e case di campagna, le quali interrompono la monotonia della vasta maremma, popolata di arbusti, e di cespugli di mirto, i quali danno ricovero ad abbondante selvaggina. Ai tempi degli Etruschi sorgevano su questa riviera grandi e popolose città, rinomate per la loro civiltà, da Volterra fin verso Cara e Veia, nella campagna di Roma. Si passa davanti alla antica Cecina, vicino alla costa, dove ancora oggidì trovasi un abitato, il quale ha ritenuto lo stesso nome. Alquanto a mezzogiorno trovavasi l’antica Vetulonia, detta più tardi Populonia, una delle città più possenti dell’Etruria, la quale stendeva la sua signoria sopra tutte le isole del canale toscano. Dessa venne rovinata durante la guerra civile fra Mario e Silla, a tal segno che fin dai tempi di Strabone non rimanevano di essa che un’antica torre, ed alcuni ruderi di tempi, e delle sue mura. Scorgonsi ancora oggidì le sue rovine sur un promontorio di una piccola penisola, la quale si stacca dalla riva, ricoperta da siepi e da cespugli, e fra queste sorge un piccolo forte. -

Allowing for irs baroque con volutions, we find the dedication not only a fitting personal tribute 10 the saint but also a worthy appraisal of the blessings that he had brought to the Church of France: " It is most fitting that this instrument so useful to salvation be: placed in the hands of a priest whose charitable actions reconcile not only the hearts of the common people but also of kings, and who, in the role of apostle which he contin uall y carries our personally or through his confreres, extends the kingdom of our sovereign maSter even to places where his glory was, so [0 speak, bu ried and, [0 put it briefly, where the Lord's vineyard was lying fallow and fruitless, for lack of good workers, and who upheld, as it seems fit, the honor of their master. ~ Th anks be [0 God, France is now more Christian than it ever was; darkness and ignorance are givi ng place the re to the beautiful light of salvation and grace.

Reading and Visionary Literature in Pearl, Piers Plowman, a Revelation of Divine Love, and the Book of Margery Kempe
NECESSARY FICTIONS: READING AND VISIONARY LITERATURE IN PEARL, PIERS PLOWMAN, A REVELATION OF DIVINE LOVE, AND THE BOOK OF MARGERY KEMPE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Hannah Marie Byland December 2017 © 2017 Hannah Marie Byland NECESSARY FICTIONS: READING AND VISIONARY LITERATURE IN PEARL, PIERS PLOWMAN, A REVELATION OF DIVINE LOVE, AND THE BOOK OF MARGERY KEMPE Hannah Marie Byland, Ph. D. Cornell University 2017 When the Dreamer of Pearl first encounters the Maiden, he attempts to describe a giant pearl affixed to her bosom and finds he can only say, “A manneʒ dom moʒt dryʒly demme / Er mynde moʒt malte in hit mesure. / I hope no tong moʒt endure / No sauerly saghe say of þat syʒt.” Just when he hopes to be able to say something about the Maiden, the Dreamer's language fails him and he has to give an approximation of what he sees. In my dissertation, I explore the outcomes of such failures of language in visionary writing. Instead of dwindling into silence in the face of the ineffable, as one might expect, English visionary writing exploits language’s fecundity. Past work on visionary literature separates so-called mystic visions from what are supposed to be their more poetic counterparts, identifying mystic visions as primarily religious texts and poetic dream visions as primarily literary texts. I argue instead that mystic, what I call “waking,” visions and dream visions are inextricably linked through the way they engage the reader in the work of the vision. -
The Devotion of the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary
The Devotion of the Seven Sorrows of the Blessed Virgin Mary “God wills to establish in the world devotion to My Immaculate Heart.” Why Devotion to the Heart of Our Mother in Her Sorrows? Because Jesus wants this devotion. “Jesus Christ Himself revealed to Blessed Veronica of Binasco, that, He is more pleased in seeing His Mother compassionated than Himself.” He said to her: ‘My daughter, tears shed for My Passion are dear to Me; but as I loved My Mother Mary with an immense love, the meditation on the torments which She endured at My death is even more agreeable to Me.’ “Wherefore the graces promised by Jesus to those who are devoted to the dolors of Mary are very great.”1 Because Our Lady also wants it! Our Lady lamented to St. Bridget that very few consoled Her by meditating on Her Sorrows, and “that the greater part of the world lived in forgetfulness of them: ‘I look around at all who are on earth, to see if by chance there are any who pity Me, and meditate upon My Sorrows; and I find that there are very few. Therefore, My daughter, though I am forgotten by many, at least do you not forget Me; consider My anguish, and imitate, as far as you can, My grief.’”2 “For this purpose the Blessed Virgin Herself appeared in the year 1239 to the founder of the Order of the Servites, or servants of Mary, to ask them to institute a religious order in remembrance of Her sorrows.”3 It is a major Request of Heaven given at Fatima. -

CAN THE UNDEAD SPEAK?: LANGUAGE DEATH AS A MATTER OF (NOT) KNOWING ABSTRACT This text studies how language death and metaphor algorithmically collude to propagate our intellectual culture. In describing how language builds upon and ultimately necessitates its own ruins to our frustration and subjugation, I define dead language in general and then, following a reading of Benjamin’s “The Task of the Translator,” explore the instance of indexical translation. Inventing the language in pain, a de-signified or designated language located between the frank and the esoteric language theories in the mediaeval of examples of Dante Alighieri and Hildegaard von Bingen, the text acquires the prime modernist example of dead language appropriation in ἀλήθεια and φύσις from the earlier fascistic works of Martin Heidegger. -
Venerable Louis of Granada
VENERABLE LOUIS OF GRANADA Ferdinand and Isabella of Spain helped Columbus to discover t his continent. These same sovereigns gave the deathblow t o the well-nigh immortal foe of Ch ristendom in the conquest of Granada by breaking the power of the Moor and expelling him from Europe. To populate the land vacated by the Moor they offe red Spanish settlers many inducements and privileges. Among other adventurers enticed by s uch prospects came a young couple from the extreme northwestern Province of Galicia bearing the name of Sarria. They were of ancient and honest Christian origin, but they were poor. Consequently when Sarria, the head of the family, died, his wife and her tender child were dependent on charity. This little child was the future Louis of Granada and under these circumstances was he born in 1504, the year that records also the birth of the great Do minican Pope, St. Pius V. Louis quarrelled with a playmate outside the Castle walls of the Duke, the governor of that territory. The Duke inter fered and, greatly impressed by Louis' able defence of himself and by his winning disposition undertook the youth's education. Thus was he enabled to learn Latin with the Duke's own sons. Although worldly honors now loomed up before him, an interior light shone brighter, and Louis unhesitatingly followed the in spiration. It was a Dominican vocation. He felt keenly the separation from his poor mother, but he did not forget her. As a novice he daily set aside a half of hi s own meagre dinner and sent it to her. -
WHY I QUESTION the ROMAN CATHOLIC FAITH by Charles G.B
Is Roman Catholicism the same as mainline Christianity? Are the differences important? Was Peter the first pope? Was Mary sinless? Was she a perpetual virgin? Can she hear and answer our prayers? What about the mass? Why don't protestants practice it? These questions and more are addressed in WHY I QUESTION THE ROMAN CATHOLIC FAITH by Charles G.B. Evans, Ph.D. An excellent resource for any questioning Catholic as well as interested non- Catholics wishing to know more about these monumental differences.

BookLocker.com, Inc. 2013 First Edition THE QUESTION OF MARY Perhaps the most obvious place to begin our study of Catholicism would be with that of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Such overbearing emphasis and devotion to Mary is obvious within the Roman system that it is reasonable to wonder why. In keeping with the format of this treatise, let us first consider some of the things that Rome actually says about her before proceeding. -

Doctoral student John Scott will teach a class on constructed languages at the Collins Living-Learning Center in the spring. "I was 14, at Boy Scout camp, when I was first introduced to Dungeons and Dragons," he said. "I quickly fell into the role of dungeon master, but was dissatisfied with the settings of the game. I wanted a richer, deeper experience." So he crafted his own language, a cross between Turkish and Gothic, which he eventually furnished with an alphabet, words and names for specific locations within his gaming world. Fast forward two decades: Scott, who's now a doctoral student in IU's Department of Second Language Studies, will teach a class on constructed languages at the Collins Living-Learning Center in the spring. Often created as a layer of realism for fictional worlds in books, games or films, constructed languages are consciously devised. -
Dichten Als Stoff-Vermittlung. Formen, Ziele, Wirkungen. Beiträge Zur
Peter Stotz (Hg.) Innerhalb der vielgestaltigen lateinischen Dichtung des Mittelalters gibt es zahlreiche Texte, in denen schon vorhandene Prosavorlagen in gebundene Form umgesetzt worden sind. Dieses Umgestalten kann gesehen werden als Wechsel eines medialen Formates im Dienste be- stimmter Bedürfnisse und Wirkungsabsichten. Jenseits philologischer und literaturästhetischer Erörte- Dichten als rungen lässt sich danach fragen, welches die Zielsetzungen und die Methoden solcher Umsetzung von Texten gewesen Stoff-Vermittlung sind und in welchem Masse das Angestrebte erreicht wor- Formen, Ziele, Wirkungen den ist. Der vorliegende Band vereinigt vierzehn Studien, in denen bestimmten Aspekten aus diesem Fragenkreis Beiträge zur Praxis der Versifikation nachgegangen wird. Schwerpunkte bilden Bibeldichtung, hagiographische Dichtung und Lehrdichtung unterschied- lateinischer Texte im Mittelalter licher Art. Behandelt werden ferner besondere Formen des Nebeneinanders von Vers und Prosa, die Zusammen- führung der metrischen und der akzentuierenden Dich- tungstradition bei einem bestimmten Autor sowie das Verkürzen von Texten als kulturelle Praxis, damals und heute.

Selections from the Supplement to the Liturgy of the Hours for the Order of Preachers A Draft Translation of the Proprium Officiorum Ordinis Praedicatorum (1982) for Study and Consultation: Dominican Liturgical Commission, U.S.A. Chicago, 1991 DIFFERENT ELEMENTS IN THE OFFICES: Historical Notes 25. In accord with the General Instruction of the Liturgy of the Hours a short biographical note has been placed at the beginning of the proper Office of each Saint or Blessed. As is the case for some Propers of certain religious families and dioceses, these short biographical notices were written in a fuller manner and edited according to contemporary historico-critical findings by the office of the Postulator General of the Order." Thus, the desire of many has been satisfied, namely, the desire for spiritual nourishment, not only from the second readings of the Office of Readings, but also from the biographical note which describes the unique characteristics of the spiritual life, the teaching, or the pastoral activity of the Saint or Blessed. These notes can serve as an initial introduction to the Saint or Blessed or as a homiletic aid, as well as a source for personal meditation. General Introduction, p. xxxiv.
