Now I invite you again with love and fellowship to join me as I continue this path of discovery. In this book we will explore how the Body of Christ, all the Christian churches, has grown in 2000 years since our Lord Jesus Christ offered the world the gift of God's truth through His sacrifice on the cross, which is the key to our salvation.

  • 9 Texts, Images and Sounds in the Urban Environment, C.1100– C.1500
    390 9 Texts, Images and Sounds in the Urban Environment, c.1100– c.1500 Maximiliaan P.J. Martens , Johan Oosterman , Nele Gabriëls , Andrew Brown , and Hendrik Callewier No single event in medieval Bruges was recorded by so many as the marriage festivities of Charles the Bold and Margaret of York in 1468; and no event brought so much artistic talent together. More than 150 artists (painters, sculptors, embroiderers and others), including some of the most celebrated of the day, were draft ed in from all over the duke’s territories to work on the decoration and staging of the pas d’armes on the Markt and the banquet entertainments in the Prinsenhof that took place between 3 and 12 July. Th e singing sirens who emerged during the last banquet from the jaws of a 60 foot model whale – which had mirrors for eyes and moved to the sound of trumpets and shawms – were among the countless singers and musicians who performed during the event. Th e cost to the ducal household of these expenses (which included building work on the duke’s residence) came to more than 13,000 pounds (of 40 groten), the equivalent of paying a daily wage to 52,000 skilled craft smen. Local artists were also employed by the city aldermen for the couple’s entry into the city. Th e rhetorician Anthonis de Roovere was paid for staging the dumbshows forming part of the entry ceremony, of which he also wrote the most detailed account.1 Th e festivities of 1468 illuminate several aspects of ‘cultural’ activity in Bruges that form the themes of this chapter.

  • Jordanes and the Invention of Roman-Gothic History Dissertation
    Empire of Hope and Tragedy: Jordanes and the Invention of Roman-Gothic History Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Brian Swain Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2014 Dissertation Committee: Timothy Gregory, Co-advisor Anthony Kaldellis Kristina Sessa, Co-advisor Copyright by Brian Swain 2014 Abstract This dissertation explores the intersection of political and ethnic conflict during the emperor Justinian’s wars of reconquest through the figure and texts of Jordanes, the earliest barbarian voice to survive antiquity. Jordanes was ethnically Gothic - and yet he also claimed a Roman identity. Writing from Constantinople in 551, he penned two Latin histories on the Gothic and Roman pasts respectively. Crucially, Jordanes wrote while Goths and Romans clashed in the imperial war to reclaim the Italian homeland that had been under Gothic rule since 493. That a Roman Goth wrote about Goths while Rome was at war with Goths is significant and has no analogue in the ancient record. I argue that it was precisely this conflict which prompted Jordanes’ historical inquiry. Jordanes, though, has long been considered a mere copyist, and seldom treated as an historian with ideas of his own. And the few scholars who have treated Jordanes as an original author have dampened the significance of his Gothicness by arguing that barbarian ethnicities were evanescent and subsumed by the gravity of a Roman political identity. They hold that Jordanes was simply a Roman who can tell us only about Roman things, and supported the Roman emperor in his war against the Goths.

  • Literature of the Low Countries
    Literature of the Low Countries A Short History of Dutch Literature in the Netherlands and Belgium Reinder P. Meijer bron Reinder P. Meijer, Literature of the Low Countries. A short history of Dutch literature in the Netherlands and Belgium. Martinus Nijhoff, The Hague / Boston 1978 Zie voor verantwoording: http://www.dbnl.org/tekst/meij019lite01_01/colofon.htm © 2006 dbnl / erven Reinder P. Meijer ii For Edith Reinder P. Meijer, Literature of the Low Countries vii Preface In any definition of terms, Dutch literature must be taken to mean all literature written in Dutch, thus excluding literature in Frisian, even though Friesland is part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, in the same way as literature in Welsh would be excluded from a history of English literature. Similarly, literature in Afrikaans (South African Dutch) falls outside the scope of this book, as Afrikaans from the moment of its birth out of seventeenth-century Dutch grew up independently and must be regarded as a language in its own right. Dutch literature, then, is the literature written in Dutch as spoken in the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the so-called Flemish part of the Kingdom of Belgium, that is the area north of the linguistic frontier which runs east-west through Belgium passing slightly south of Brussels. For the modern period this definition is clear anough, but for former times it needs some explanation. What do we mean, for example, when we use the term ‘Dutch’ for the medieval period? In the Middle Ages there was no standard Dutch language, and when the term ‘Dutch’ is used in a medieval context it is a kind of collective word indicating a number of different but closely related Frankish dialects.
