When Manuscripts Meet: Editing the Bible in Greek During and After the Council of Trent chapter 15 When Manuscripts Meet: Editing the Bible in Greek during and after the Council of Trent Scott Mandelbrote In or around 1599, Thomas James (ca. 1573–1629) studied an unfamiliar Latin Bible, probably in the shop of the stationer John Norton in Saint Paul’s Churchyard in London. He read the preface, which was ascribed to Pope Sixtus v: and viewed it well, considering the singular care that was taken in the mending of it; the supreame Authoritie whereby it was done; the Parties imployed in the dooing of it; the Chiefe Pastor of the Church, sole Iudge of all controuersies; his assistance of a Colledge of Cardinalls; helpe of the best Learned men that could be gotten throughout all Europe; of rare Manuscripts; the best printed Copies; vse of Originals and Fathers; cor- rection of it both before & after the printing; imployment of Correcters and Compositors for the same purpose. Lastly, the approprobation of it by the Church, and in the Church to be read, forbidding all other Bibles, how little soeuer swaruing from this, to be read; commaunding them, whether printed or written, to bee made away: or at the least, to be made of none effect, and not to bee accounted of in respect of this.1 James may already have been acting for Sir Thomas Bodley, who in February 1598 had taken it upon himself to restore the library of Oxford University. Certainly, he lost no time in comparing this new Bible to an earlier printed copy of the Vulgate, “which it was my chance to buy of a Souldier, that was at 1 Thomas James, A Treatise of the Corrvption of Scripture, Councels, and Fathers (London, 1611), 27–28.

I should hardly haue beleeued so much, vnlesse I had seene it with mine eyes…2 Following this discovery, James immediately began exploiting such apparent disagreement over the text of the Latin Bible for the purposes of Protestant polemic: “for what talke is there of peace, or hope of amendement, as long as the two Popes, the Holy Fathers of the Church, are at as great enmitie…one Pope against another; Sixtus against Clement, Clement against Sixtus, disput- ing, writing & fighting about the… Bible.”3 In a book that he published in 1600, James drew attention to the discrepancies between the Sixtine and Clementine editions of the Vulgate and to their differences from earlier editions of the Bible sanctioned by the Catholic Church, from rabbinic tradition, and from the consensus of the underlying Greek and Hebrew sources of the text.4 He was far from being the first to notice the problems about which he now gloated: 2 James, Treatise, 228–29. The Bibles used for comparison were dm 6129, printed at Louvain in 1547, endorsed by the Faculty of Theology there, and edited by Johannes Henten on the basis of the work of Robert Estienne, and the quarto editio of dm 6184 (the so-called Sixto- Clementine Bible, originally published in an edition of five hundred copies in folio in 1592). James’s text states that the Louvain Bible came from Calais, but the context makes clear that it was in fact spoil from the Jesuit library at Cadiz. The Earl of Essex sacked Cadiz in July 1596, and his ships also carried off the library of Fernão de Mascarenhas from Faro.

JRMMRA 9 (1988) The Elizabethan Diplomatic Service by F. Jeffrey Platt Northern Arizona University The critical early years of Elizabeth's reign witnessed a watershed in European history. The 1559 Treaty of Cateau-Cambresis, which ended the long Hapsburg-Valois conflict, resulted in a sudden shift in the focus of international politics from Italy to the uncomfortable proximity of the Low Countries. The arrival there, 30 miles from England's coast, in 1567, of thousands of seasoned Spanish troops presented a military and commer­ cial threat the English queen could not ignore. Moreover, French control of Calais and their growing interest in supplanting the Spanish presence in the Netherlands represented an even greater menace to England's security. Combined with these ominous developments, the Queen's excommunica­ tion in May 1570 further strengthened the growing anti-English and anti­ Protestant sentiment of Counter-Reformation Europe. These circumstances, plus the significantly greater resources of France and Spain, defined England, at best, as a middleweight in a world dominated by two heavyweights.

  • 1 in THIS CHAPTER We Examine the Early Records of the Bodleian
    BUILDING A LIBRARY WITHOUT WALLS: THE EARLY YEARS OF THE BODLEIAN LIBRARY ROBYN ADAMS AND LOUISIANE FERLIER CENTRE FOR EDITING LIVES AND LETTERS BODLEY’S REFOUNDATION OF THE LIBRARY AT OXFORD IN THIS CHAPTER we examine the early records of the Bodleian Library in order to explore the protean administrative processes employed by Sir Thomas Bodley and Thomas James, his first Librarian. These early records yield a glimpse of how various aspects of the library were shaped, and of the attitudes towards books and donors demonstrated by Bodley and James. Our research data extracted from these records reveal bibliographical patterns and physical behaviours which allow us to interrogate the intellectual processes at work in populating the library shelves. Erected, famously, ‘for the publique use of students’, we aim to interrogate the tension of the Bodleian’s role as a public institution promoting and preserving for posterity the muniments of early English religion while at the same time serving an academic community, the principal constituency of which were students. We aim to confront to material evidence this idea of the library for the ‘publique use of students’, and dig deeper to find other sources of motivation for the resurrection of the bibliographical monument that was Bodley’s vision. Following his withdrawal from public service in his political role as diplomatic agent in the Netherlands during the conflict with Spain between 1588 and 1596, Bodley directed elsewhere the administrative energy that had defined his career as a legate.1 His decision to return to Oxford, to refurbish the structure and furnish his newly-constructed presses with books resulted in not only soliciting philanthropic gestures from politically powerful friends and contacts but also a new sort of activity; that of organising a brand new kind of institution.

  • The Building of the Tower of Five Orders III the Schools' Quadrangle at Oxford
    The Building of the Tower of Five Orders III the Schools' Quadrangle at Oxford By CATHERINE COLE N the summer of 1612, John Chamberlain, the Tudor gossip writer, de­ I scribed, in a letter to Sir Dudley Carleton, a visit he had lately paid to Oxford, in the course of which he had viewed the three important buildings recently erected there. In an interesting passage he thus records his im­ press.ions: , ... Sir Thomas Bodley's addition to the library is a fair and substantial building, suitable on the outside to the Divinity Schools, Mrs. Wadham's new College would have been a fine handsome fabric, if it had been as well placed and contrived as it might easily have been, but the most pleasing thing I saw was the new quadrangle at Merton College, a graceful work and one that may stand for a second foundation .. ." Chamberlain had two old friends in Oxford, William Gent and Thomas Allen, both active members of the small committee set up by the University to oversee the progress of the library,' and both residents of Gloucester Hall, whose young principal, Dr. Hawley, was also one of Bodley's chief assistants. Dr. Hawley had lately been affronted by Mrs. Wadham's refusal to build her college on the site of Gloucester Hall and to make him its first Warden.3 It therefore seems extremely probable that Chamberlain is here quoting the views and information imparted to him by these two friends, in whose company he doubtless viewed the buildings. If tlus is so, the statement that the addition to the library was suitable on the outside to the Divinity School, is of interest, since it implies a deliberate intention on Bodley's part to design his building in conformity with a GotlUc predecessor.

It is just over fifty years since I made my first wobbly attempts to read and write Chinese. Within a few weeks I was hooked completely by the complexity and scope of Chinese history and culture, and since that time I have continued to try and understand what makes this extraordinary civilization so difficult to understand and yet so rewarding. Back in 1959-1960, when I was a student, Mao and his pliant colleagues in the People’s Republic of China were driving the entire country into apparently irreversible programs of fundamental economic transformation, known by the optimistic name of the Great Leap Forward. Now, in 2010, that particular Great Leap has faded from global discourse, and has been replaced by a different type of transformative and explosive economic growth, as China has learned how to marshal its vast potential along new tracks of reconstruction and change. I see this invitation to give the Jefferson Lecture as being an opportunity to present some thoughts concerning an earlier period of Chinese history, one in which concepts of cultural change were very much present.
