The opening chapter reviews previous approaches to the H.A. and is followed by a survey of Arator's interpretation and interpolation of baptismal material, showing both how those episodes in Acts which deal specifically with baptism are given extended exegetical attention, and how baptismal significance is frequently divined in passages which have no obvious baptismal connection. The central chapters examine in detail the episodes of the poem which are of most baptismal importance. Two deal with Arator's exegesis of explicitly baptismal situations: Simon Magus' failure to receive the Spirit is presented as being prefigured in the failure of the raven to return to the ark, a parallel also drawn by Augustine; the Ethiopian eunuch is presented in accordance with the 'Ethiopian' exegesis first formulated by Origen. Four more chapters examine episodes which Arator deems of implicit baptismal significance: the ascension is interpreted in terms of the baptism and 'ascent' of the individual; the healing of the paralytic is explained as the baptismal healing of the wounds of circumcision; Paul's speech at Antioch becomes an exposition of the typological significance of the crossing of the Red Sea; the name Aquila prompts a digression on the baptismal implications of the rejuvenation of the eagle. The aim is not to discover indisputable sources for all of Arator's ideas, but rather to place the H.A. in its exegetical context, and to trace the development and popularity of baptismal symbolism in the first six centuries AD. - 1 - BAPTISMAL EXEGESIS IN ARATOR'S HISTORIA APOSTOLICA RICHARD JOHN HILLIER SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF DURHAM DEPARTMENT OF THEOLOGY 1990 The copyright of this thesis rests with the author.

In the introduction to his recent translation of Arator's poems, Richard Schrader notes the importance of the themes of conversion and renewal in the Historia Apostolica. but until now the baptismal exegesis of Arator has received little, if any, attention.2 Indeed, the study of the place of Arator's work in the exegetical tradition as a whole has not been one which has attracted the efforts of many scholars, though it has often been observed, as we shall see, that this might be one of the most productive approaches to the H.A.. Casual surveys of the H.A. have generally concluded that there is little of interest in the poem for the modern reader. One of the most savage judgements comes from the pen of E.M.Young: The Historia Apostolica is entirely devoid of poetic merit. The language ia obscure, the treatment bald, the style vicious, and even where it ia impoasible for the author to help rising with his narrative, he does his best to quench its divinity by the introduction of undignified conceits, far-fetched metaphors, and long-winded digressions. The admiration accorded to him by his contemporaries is a mournful proof of the vitiated taste of the age.3 The clue to this attitude comes in the opening sentence. It is the overwhelming opinion of scholars that Arator's poetic ability is not of the highest quality, a judgement which it would be foolish to dispute.* However, too many scholars have set this as the only criterion by which a work might be deemed worthy of study. Thus F.J.E.Raby: The poem is badly constructed, and it can hardly fail to weary a modern reader...Arator shows none of that feeling for style which links a Prudentius or a Paulinus of Nola to the classioal poets, and in its laok of struoture, ita faults of prosody, and its intelleotusl feebleness, the work is a prelude to the deoline of oulture which made the seventh century the darkest period of the Middle Ages.5 - 5 - ARATOR: POET OR EXEGETE? Raby here reveals the genuine reason for the condemnation of Arator as one of the darkest products of a dark age, namely a seemingly obligatory comparison with the classical poets, a comparison from which he has little chance of emerging unscathed. But as Jacques Fontaine has observed, the evolution of the Latin language made it impossible for a sixth-century poet to produce verse worthy of a Virgil, however familiar he was with that master: La realisation pratique de cea preferences esthetiques se heurte deja a l'asperite d'un latin tardif en pleine ovolution...L'obsourito nait souvent, dans ass vers, d'une rencontre dissonants entre una recherche extreme et un elal de langue qui ne possede plus la souplesse necessaire pour se plier a la reusaite de ces tours. It was not only the disintegration of the Latin language which posed problems for the later Christian poets; in the words of W.P.Ker: In Latin there was no opportunity for such triumphs snd glorias as cane later in the new languages. Here success meant obedience to the old models, or if rebellion took its chance and tried to make something new, it was always something exceptional, and often turned out to be exceptional in a hackneyed way after all.? However, with one or two notable exceptions, scholars in the first half of this century were concerned only with discussing Arator in relation to the epic poets of classical antiquity and triumphantly proving his 'dependence' upon them, and thus by implication his inferiority, by citing example after example of the subdeacon's so- called borrowings: 'huius creberrimae imitationis prima causa est imbed 11itas et infirm!tas poetae eiusque inopia verborum, quae ad carmen faciendum vix suffecit; itaque carmen suum ubique veterum elegantibus dictionibus exornavit, ut operi maiorem auctoritatern conci1iaret.' Thus the conclusion of Alfred Ansorge, whose study, following closely on a similar study by Johann Schrodinger, consists almost entirely of, admittedly impressive, lists of verbal - 6 - ARATOR: POET OR EXEGETE? reminiscences of the classical poets in the work of Arator.8 Interesting though these may be, it is inevitable that the modern reader will want to question the point of such investigations. For example, if Arator really intended his reader to be reminded of phrases from the classical poets, should we also be asking ourselves whether such acts of recall are intended to colour our reading of the passages of Arator in which such 'parallels' are to be found? This is a question with which SchrSdinger does not concern himself unduly. Although he acknowledges that many of Arator's 'borrowings' are unconscious, he nonetheless argues that many were included deliberately, for no other reason, it seems, than to appeal to the classical tastes of his readers: Er hat auch mil Absicht aua Vorgila roi chain Sprachachatza gaaohopft urn aain Nark in dan Augen dor Gabildatan vollworligor xu machanj or hat aain Epoa abaichtlich •ait Nendungan aus dan princeps carminum gaachmiickt urn daoaelban ainan klaasiachan Anatrich zu gobon.9 Ansorge would go further: he attempts, briefly and unconvincingly, to prove that Arator intended the verbal reminiscences to inspire a general recollection of the original contexts from which they were drawn, which would in turn affect the attitude of the reader to the passage of Arator before him. 10 The same is done by Schrader, who comments: A good nany quotationa and oohooa of tho elaaaioa woro doubt Ioaa unoonaoioua, but judging auoh caaes ia difficult.

    The Real Presence of Christ in Scripture: A Sacramental Approach to the Old Testament by Geoffrey Boyle A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Wycliffe College and Graduate Centre for Theological Studies of the Toronto School of Theology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology awarded by the University of St. Michael's College © Copyright by Geoffrey Boyle 2019 The Real Presence of Christ in Scripture: A Sacramental Approach to the Old Testament Geoffrey Robert Boyle Doctor of Philosophy in Theology University of St. Michael's College 2019 Abstract Of the various sense-making attempts to understand the relation of Christ to the Old Testament over the last century, there is a noticeable absence of any substantial presence. Christ is prophesied, witnessed, predicted, typified, and prefigured; but apart from a few alleged christophanic appearances, he is largely the subject of another, historically subsequent Testament. This thesis surveys the christological approaches to the Old Testament since the early 20th century breach made within historicism, introduces a patristic mindset, proposes an ontological foundation to a sacramental (real-presence) approach, then demonstrates this through a reading of Zechariah 9-14. The goal is to bring together three arenas of study—exegetical, historical, theological—and demonstrate how their united lens clarifies the substantial referent of Scripture, namely Christ. The character of the OT witness is thus presented in christological terms, suggesting a reading that recognizes the divine person within the text itself, at home in the sensus literalis. By way of analogy to the Cyrillian hypostatic union and a Lutheran eucharistic comprehension, the task is to show how one encounters the hypostasis of Christ by means of the text’s literal sense.

  • Apostolic Discourse and Christian Identity in Anglo-Saxon Literature
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship Repository APOSTOLIC DISCOURSE AND CHRISTIAN IDENTITY IN ANGLO-SAXON LITERATURE BY SHANNON NYCOLE GODLOVE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2010 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Charles D. Wright, Chair Associate Professor Renée Trilling Associate Professor Robert W. Barrett Professor Emerita Marianne Kalinke ii ABSTRACT “Apostolic Discourse and Christian Identity in Anglo-Saxon Literature” argues that Anglo-Saxon religious writers used traditions about the apostles to inspire and interpret their peoples’ own missionary ambitions abroad, to represent England itself as a center of religious authority, and to articulate a particular conception of inspired authorship. This study traces the formation and adaptation of apostolic discourse (a shared but evolving language based on biblical and literary models) through a series of Latin and vernacular works including the letters of Boniface, the early vitae of the Anglo- Saxon missionary saints, the Old English poetry of Cynewulf, and the anonymous poem Andreas. This study demonstrates how Anglo-Saxon authors appropriated the experiences and the authority of the apostles to fashion Christian identities for members of the emerging English church in the seventh and eighth centuries, and for vernacular religious poets and their readers in the later Anglo-Saxon period. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am indebted to many people for their help and support throughout the duration of this dissertation project.

Il s'agit de mon album favori d'Enslaved suivi de près par "Eld", on ressent une envie et une virulence incroyables dans cette oeuvre. Enslaved pratique un black metal rageur et inspiré, globalement plus violent et ténébreux que sur "Eld". Il n'y a rien à jeter sur cet album, aucune piste de remplissage. On commence après une intro aux claviers avec un "Loke" ravageur et un "Fenris" magnifique avec son riff à la Satyricon et son break ultra mélodique. Enslaved impose sa patte dès 1994, avec la très bonne performance de Trym Torson à la batterie sur cet album, qui s'en ira rejoindre Emperor par la suite. "Svarte vidder" est un grand morceau doté d'une intro symphonique, le développement est excellent, 9 minutes de bonheur musical et auditif. "Yggdrasill" se pose en interlude de ce disque, un titre calme avec voix grave, guimbarde, choeurs et l'utilisation d'une basse fretless jouée par Eirik "Pytten", le producteur de l'album: un intemrède magnifique et judicieux car l'album gagne en aération. Le disque enchaîne sur un "Jotu249lod" destructeur et un Gylfaginning" accrocheur.

McOmish, 2009 Abstract This thesis examines the changes forced upon the Roman elite in the evolving political climate of Ostrogothic Italy. It examines what mechanisms the Roman elite employed to renegotiate their position of influence within the state. The relationship the elite had with the past provides evidence for wider changes in society. I assert that, using the language and landscape of the past, the elite formed discourses which responded to, and which attempted to facilitate a realignment in, a changing environment. The education system still provided the Roman elite with a mechanism through which they could define themselves and prepare for what they considered to be the important aspects of the world outside the classroom.

  • DE SODOMA' AS an OVIDIAN EPISODE1 Bv RALPH HEXTER
    THE METAMORPHOSIS OF SODOM: THE PS-CYPRIAN 'DE SODOMA' AS AN OVIDIAN EPISODE1 Bv RALPH HEXTER The mysteries and challenges presented by the Latin poem known as De Sodoma are many and varied.2 The identity of its author will likely never be known. Date and place of composition can only be expressed in terms of probabilities, and portions of the poem are extremely difficult to read and interpret. I am currently involved in the preparation of a critical edition, with translation and commentary, of both De Sodoma and its shorter, perhaps supe­ rior companion-piece De Iona, in the hope that this might pave the way for easier reading.3 In the present discussion I also address problems of readabil- 1 I first read a paper bearing this title at the annual meeting of the America! Philological Association in December 1983. I thank the initiator of the APA sessions on Medieval Latin, John Clark, membets of the original audience for the questions which first led me to expand my horizons, and all those who helped shape the present esijay. 2 De Sodoma is listed as no. 7477 in D. Schaller and E. Konsgen, Inilia carminum latinorum saeculo undecimo antiquiorum (Gottingen 1977). Rudolf Peiper's text (CSEL 23 [1891) 212-20), though now nearly a century old, remains the standard one. It replaced W. Hartel's edition (CSEL 3.3 [1871) 289-97); prior to that the poem was accessible alongside the authen­ tic works of Tertullian (e.g., PL 2.1101-1106). 3 De Iona is listed as Schaller-Konsgen 12236; Peiper's text: CSEL 23.221-26; see also PL 2.1107-14 and CSEL 3.3.297-301.

Abstract The thesis addresses the question, ‘How did the First World War affect the religious faith of the people of Britain?’ The ways in which wartime preachers, hymn-writers, diarists and letter-writers expressed their faith are examined. For the vast majority, the War was both a military and a spiritual conflict of right against might and the rhetoric of a Holy War was popular. Questions of divine omnipotence and providence troubled many, the standard response being that war was a consequence of God’s gift of free will. The language of sacrifice dominated public discourse, with many asserting that the salvation of the fallen was ensured by their own sacrifice.
