The initial problem presented by the Lucius legend to the consideration of investigators of the sources of ecclesiastical history is not an historical one. It is essentially and funda- mentally chronographical. From the earliest medieval times ecclesiastical historians in a long and erudite succession have tried to synchronise the rulers who are referred to in the legend, and to date the British king with whom those rulers are alleged therein to have been in communication. But the historians have all failed — not, of course, through lack of scholarship, but because the problem, if regarded in no other way than that in which the historian conceives it, is and must remain, inscrutable. The emperors are named in one source only; the same pope does not appear in all the sources; and although the same year in the era of the Incarnation is set down in two of them, that year fits neither of the popes mentioned. It is true that, at one period, as I shall show, the correct name of the pope with whom Lucius is alleged to have corresponded did appear in the report; but that name, as we shall find, was neither Evaristus nor Eleuther, and we may well doubt whether it survived any- where until the time when the oldest extant MSS. of the ' Liber Pontificalis ' were written, i. e., until the close of the VII*'' century. It certainly did not so survive at Rome; nor yet in Anglian Britain. Consequently, as it was to the Welsh and Irish that the Angles were indebted for their knowledge of those facts in Celtic ecclesiastical history with which they concerned them- selves, we may assert that the true name was forgotten in Celtic Britain also. It is possible that the name may have been preserved in the memory of the Church of Treves after it had been lost sight MiBcellany Knno Meyer. j^ a ATjFEBD AN8C0MBE, of elsewhere, and in any case the archives of that Church pro- vide information ahout Lucius which is not discoverable in any other quarter. But the papal historiographers did not derive their knowledge of Lucius from that Church; because, in the first place, the information they provide is erroneous; in the second, the errors of which it is the vehicle are insular. Before the year 700 the efforts to solve the problem made by ecclesi- astical writers in both the great racial divisions of Britain, had resulted in a twofold misprision of the truth. At a later date the Celtic and Anglian views of the name of the pope were still divergent, but the two stories began to approximate through false chronology, and continued to do so until at length they coalesced. In the sequel they reacted together upon nearly all independent testimony, confusing and dislocating the little that might still have been preserved historically, until, eventually, the conglomerate of error that we know so well obliterated that testimony almost entirely, and usurped its place. Mommsen, when considering the more salient aspects of the legend (and he and Zimmer paid but little attention to any others) remarked, in the introduction to his edition of the 'Historia Brittonum' (p. 116): "deinde scriptor Eomanus si Bri- tannum secutus est, rationem habet, quod papae nomen mutauit, sine Eucharistum traditum accepit, qui nuUus fuit, siue Euaristum, quem tempora excludunt; at cur Eleutherium potissimum substi- tuerit causa nulla apparet, cum annus 167 ad Soterem duceret episcopum Eomae secundum receptam chronologiam a. 162 — 170." Mommsen's words — cur Eleutherium potissimum substituerit {scriptor Eomanus), have not yet met with any response, and I will now try to give a satisfactory answer to the question those words convey. II. It is not necessary to reproduce here the well-known testi- mony contained either in the 'Liber Pontificalis' Qib. XIIII); or in the 'Historia Ecclesiastica Gentis Angiorum' (I. iv, V. xxiy) and the 'Chronica Maiora' (cap. 331) of the Venerable ' Bede; or in the Historia Brittonum ' (cap. xxii). That testimony, as we all know, is self-contradictory, and I propose to treat it comparatively, in the expectation of recovering thereby the sub- stance, if not the sum, of the original record. On comparison, LUCIUS EEX AND ELEUTHERIUS PAPA. 3 then, I judge the several contradictions between the three autho- rities to be mutually destructive of the credibility of the contro- verted evidence which is presented by each and all of them; and I regard these contradictions, when taken collectively, as indicative of the absence from the primary source of our knowledge of exact statements with respect to the points at issue — sc, the identity of the Emperors and the identity of the Pope. Those historians who maintain that the legend is fraudulent and incredible, will naturally ask what value can be attached to such opinions as these of mine — i. e., to opinions which deny the credibility of extant dependent evidence — which assert the inexactness of the statements made in the primary, independent, but non-existent source of our knowledge — and which maintain, nevertheless, that the legend is rooted in truth. But these are among the reasons why the legend must, as I have said already, be inscrutable to those who can only conceive its problems as the historian does. The conclusions I have arrived at, after comparison of the statements made in each authority, are these: I find that the original record, in addition to the notice of baptism, contained only the following items: I. An annuary datum. This was not preserved after the VII*'' century. n. The name of a ruler: sc. Lucius. in. That ruler's title: sc. Bex. IV. A territorial adjective: sc. Britannius. V. An anonymous reference to the contemporary Papa Bomanus. VI. An anonymous reference to the two (or more) contempo- rary Imperatores Bomanorum. It follows that the only exact statement in the original notice, besides the name of the king who sought and received baptism, and the name of the province he belonged to, was the number of the year in which some of the events recorded took place.

Brussels PRINTED FOR MELINE, CANS A.ND C"., EOILEVARD DE WATERLOO, Zi. M DCCC XXXIX. MR V. un:ve PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

  • Poetry and Poems
    Poetry Kaleidoscope Nicolae Sfetcu Published by Nicolae Sfetcu Second Edition Copyright 2014 Nicolae Sfetcu BOOK PREVIEW 1 Poetry Poetry (ancient Greek: ποιεω (poieo) = I create) is traditionally a written art form (although there is also an ancient and modern poetry which relies mainly upon oral or pictorial representations) in which human language is used for its aesthetic qualities in addition to, or instead of, its notional and semantic content. The increased emphasis on the aesthetics of language and the deliberate use of features such as repetition, meter and rhyme, are what are commonly used to distinguish poetry from prose, but debates over such distinctions still persist, while the issue is confounded by such forms as prose poetry and poetic prose. Some modernists (such as the Surrealists) approach this problem of definition by defining poetry not as a literary genre within a set of genres, but as the very manifestation of human imagination, the substance which all creative acts derive from. Poetry often uses condensed form to convey an emotion or idea to the reader or listener, as well as using devices such as assonance, alliteration and repetition to achieve musical or incantatory effects. Furthermore, poems often make heavy use of imagery, word association, and musical qualities. Because of its reliance on "accidental" features of language and connotational meaning, poetry is notoriously difficult to translate. Similarly, poetry's use of nuance and symbolism can make it difficult to interpret a poem or can leave a poem open to multiple interpretations. It is difficult to define poetry definitively, especially when one considers that poetry encompasses forms as different as epic narratives and haiku.

  • R.S. Thomas: Poetic Horizons
    R.S. Thomas: Poetic Horizons Karolina Alicja Trapp Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2014 The School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne Produced on archival quality paper Abstract This thesis engages with the poetry of R.S. Thomas. Surprisingly enough, although acclaim for Thomas as a major figure on the twentieth century’s literary scene has been growing perceptibly, academic scholarship has not as yet produced a full-scale study devoted specifically to the poetic character of Thomas’s writings. This thesis aims to fill that gap. Instead of mining the poetry for psychological, social, or political insights into Thomas himself, I take the verse itself as the main object of investigation. My concern is with the poetic text as an artefact. The main assumption here is that a literary work conveys its meaning not only via particular words and sentences, governed by the grammar of a given language, but also through additional artistic patterning. Creating a new set of multi-sided relations within the text, this “supercode” leads to semantic enrichment. Accordingly, my goal is to scrutinize a given poem’s artistic organization by analysing its component elements as they come together and function in a whole text. Interpretations of particular poems form the basis for conclusions about Thomas’s poetics more generally. Strategies governing his poetic expression are explored in relation to four types of experience which are prominent in his verse: the experience of faith, of the natural world, of another human being, and of art.

    Seist Chorus Sections in Scottish Gaelic Song: An Overview of Their Evolving Uses and Functions by Anna Wright BMus, Edinburgh Napier University, 2015 MMus, University of British Columbia, 2018 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS in The Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies (Ethnomusicology) The University of British Columbia (Vancouver) April 2020 © Anna Wright, 2020 The following individuals certify that they have read, and recommend to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies for acceptance, the thesis entitled: Seist Chorus Sections in Scottish Gaelic Song: An Overview of Their Evolving Uses and Functions submitted by Anna Wright in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Ethnomusicology Examining Committee: Nathan Hesselink Supervisor, Chair, Ethnomusicology Department, School of Music, UBC Michael Tenzer Supervisory Committee Member, Professor, Ethnomusicology Department, School of Music, UBC ii Abstract This thesis examines the use of seist chorus sections in the Scottish Gaelic song tradition. These sections consist of nonsense syllables, or vocables. Although lacking semantic meaning, such vocables often provoke the joining in of the audience or listening group. The use of these vocable sections can be seen to have evolved in both their physical (sonic) characteristics and their social use and function over time while still maintaining a marked presence in Scottish Gaelic music across many genres and generations. I briefly examine theories surrounding seist vocables’ inception, interview three practitioners of Gaelic song about seist choruses’ inception and evolving function, examine four songs dating from a period spanning 1601-2016, and relate my findings to Scotland’s constantly evolving social and political climate.
