Vijfde Vlaamsch Philologencongres Handelingen van het Vijfde Vlaamsch Philologencongres 30 Juli-5 Oogst 1922 te Brugge gehouden. DRUKKERIJ-UITGEVERIJ „ EXCELSIOR " Sint-Trudostraat, 21, Brugge. Tel. 376. EEN WOORD VOORAF. « Een woord vooraf » is geregeld een woord achteraf. En ook achteraf gezien, blijken deze Handelingen feitelijk wel te kunnen stellen zonder in- leiding. Een enkel woord : Voor de eerste maal na den oorlog verschijnen weer Handelingen in extenso. Mede door het feit dat te Brugge, zooals te Mechelen, geen v61- doende overeenkomst kon worden getroffen met de tijdschriften. Door allerlei omstandigheden verschijnen ze laat. Ook daardoor moest nog t én stuk wegvallen, daar de schrijver zijn betoog thans vrijwel anders stellen zou. Moge deze bundel, zooals hij is, intusschen blijven getuigen voor de groote bedrijvigheid die in Vlaanderen heerscht op wetenschappelijk gebied, en een nuttige, aangename herinnering zijn aan mooie dagen in het mooie Brugge !

  • Solovyov's Metaphysics Between Gnosis and Theurgy

    Solovyov's Metaphysics Between Gnosis and Theurgy

    religions Article Solovyov’s Metaphysics between Gnosis and Theurgy Aleksandr Gaisin The Graduate School for Social Research, IFiS PAN, 00-330 Warsaw, Poland; [email protected]; Tel.: +7953-154-6247 Received: 29 September 2018; Accepted: 8 November 2018; Published: 13 November 2018 Abstract: This article provides a reading of Vladimir Solovyov’s philosophy as expressed in his ‘Lectures on Divine Humanity’ and ‘The Meaning of Love’. It seeks to unpack his eclectic thought in order to answer the question of whether there is a Jewish Kabbalistic influence on the Russian thinker amidst his usual platonic, gnostic, and Schellengian tropes. Interested as a young man in Jewish Mysticism, Solovyov fluctuates in his ‘Lectures on Divine Humanity’ between a platonic reading of Schellengian Gnosticism and some elements of Kabbalistic origin. In ‘The Meaning of Love’, he develops a notion of love that puts him very close to what Moshe Idel calls ‘theosophic-theurgical Kabbalah’. Showing how ‘The Meaning of Love’ completes the narrative of ‘Lectures’, we can affirm that there is a certain Christian Kabbalistic line in Solovyov’s thought that culminates in his theurgical understanding of love. In this sense, Solovyov might be called a philosophical Marrano as he is certainly a heterodox theosopher that fluctuates between Christian Gnosis and Christian Kabbalah, never assuming a solid identity. Keywords: philosophical theology; heterodoxy; Judeo-Christianity; Russian religious renaissance; Christian Kabbalah; Vladimir Solovyov The enigmatic and eclectic nature of Solovyov’s thought is unveiled if we simply look at the early readings of his philosophy. Already, the Silver Age’s thinker and poet Dmitry Merezhkovsky deemed Solovyov as a Gnostic writer, immersed in Christian heresy (Merezhkovsky 1991, p.

    The Reply of Drews to His Critics.^

    THE REPLY OF DREWS TO HIS CRITICS.^ BY WILLIAM BENJAMIN SMITH. THE Christ Myth of Prof. Arthur Drews, first published in 1910,- has had one of the most remarkable careers in the history of controversial literature. Not even the famous much-debated Babel nnd Bibcl of Friedrich Delitzsch ever roused such wide-spread in- terest and even anxiety, or heated the furnace of discussion to such sevenfold ardor. The title of Delitzsch's work was in itself one of the best of advertisements ; the remarkable alliteration and consonance of the two names dififering only in a single vowel, along with the sharp dissonance in suggestion, could not fail to strike the ear and catch the attention, and the matter of the work was strange enough to the layman, though in the main familiar to the biblical critic or even student. Drews's title was also very skilfully chosen.^ Without the metrical or musical qualities of the other, it could nevertheless not fail to startle, to send a thrill through the frame, certainly a thrill of curiosity and very likely of horror. ^ Arthur Drews, Die Clirisfusmythe. Zweiter Tell. Jena, Diederichs, 1910. English translation : TIic Witnesses to the Historicity of Jesus. Trans- lated by Joseph McCabe. Chicago, Open Court Pub. Co., 1912. ^ Die Christusmythe, Jena, Diederichs, 1910; English translation, Chicago, Open Court Publishing Co. ^ And yet, I fear, less fitly and fortunately. For is there a Christ myth at all? Is the Christ in any proper sense a mythical character? To what class of myths are the Gospel stories to be referred? To myths of nature? or of culture? To myths jetiologic? or theogonic? Surely to none of these.

    THEOLOGICAL QUARTERLY. VoL. XVI. JULY, 1912. No. 3. PRACTICAL RESULTS OF MONISM. A current definition of monism runs thus: "The doctrine of cosmology that attempts to explain the phenomena of the 1 cosmos by one principle of being or ultimate substance." ) Arthur Drews, a monist, defines monism as "that view of the cosmos which admits but one principle or one ground of reality." In a recent brochure, Superintendent Repke has sketched the various types of this philosophical theory. 2) There is a materialistic monism, which reduces every phenomenon in the universe to a basis of matter. Then there is an idealistic monism, which claims that matter has no independent exist­ ence; it is a mere conception of the mind; every phenomenon is a product of the spirit. Lastly, there is a pantheistic monism. Its chief apostle is Eduard v. Hartmann, who observes that there is a parallelism between nature and spirit: in nature he finds force and law, or a principle of energy and of order; the counterparts of these two clements in the realm of the spirit are: will and mind. Force and will represent the unlogical, law and mind the logical, in the two hemispheres which monism assumes for its cosmos. But these four elements: force, law, will, mind, are not four different substances, but manifestations of the same, in fact, of the only substance. The multitude of volitions which individuals put forth are but movements of the absolute will; and the h'ost of ideas, or ideal distinctions, become concentrated 1) Standard Dictionary. 2) Pantheistischer und deistischer Monismus, in Bibl.
  • A Free Religious Faith

    A Free Religious Faith

    Rel THE REPORT UNITARIAN COMMISSION A FREE WEL A REPORT PRESENTED TO THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF UNITARIAN AND FREE CH~ISTZANCHURCHES U THE LINDSEY PRESS 1 GORDON SQUARE, LONDON, W.CA PREFACE - THISvolume represents the work of a group of writers appointed as a Commission of the General Assembly of Uni- tarian and Free Chfistian Churches, and left perfectly free to deal in their own way, as a group, with the subject of a Free Religious Faith. In accepting the result of their labours and approving it for publication, the Assembly does not imply that the book is issued as an authoritarian statement of denominational belief. ~t is published to help people both inside and outside the churches of the Assembly by an exposition of a religious faith which is free and yet definite in content. ~t expresses the way in which a group of people, professing religious freedom approaches the problem of religion today, and it is the hope of the writers that it may prove of value to all who find themselves no longer able to accept authoritarian forms of religion. The volume is divided into three parts :- ' Part I consists of a general outline of the major conclusions, stated in a coherent and consecutive form. The reader who feels unable to accept some of these conclusions, or who thinks that certain possible~objectionsto them have been overlooked, or who would like to see the issues discussed at greater length, is invited to proceed to the second part. Part N consists of chapters on separate subjects. Here the problems involved in the general conclusions of the first part are considered in fuller detail.

    Round 8 1. According to One Late Tradition, He Married a Daughter Of

    Round 8 1. According to one late tradition, he married a daughter of Minyas named Clymene that bore him Arcesilaus, the father of Laertes. He was awarded the island of Samos during the war against the Teleboans, which was renamed for him. Apollodorus describes how this man was actually a son of Herse and Hermes who fathered Tithonos when he was (*) kidnapped by Eos. This man’s wife was bribed with a golden crown to have sex with Pteleon. Afterwards, she fled to the court of King Minos. When his wife sang a hymn invoking Nephele, he used a weapon he had received from her to impale her, that weapon was a spear that never missed. For 10 points, name this consort of Procris. ANSWER: Cephalus 2. In The Book of the Heavenly Cow, this god pours an alcoholic substance that floods the “four meadows of paradise” and orders Hathor to destroy evil humans. He is sometimes depicted as being merged with Horus of the Double Horizon, during which he is conflated with Horakhty. In a text named after him, this god is bitten by a snake that was created when his daughter used his saliva to create it - that text sees (*) Isis try to learn this god’s true name. This god constantly does battle with the primordial dragon Apophis during the tenth hour of the night, only to emerge victorious every day. Hathor is often said to be the eye of this figure. For 10 points, name this god of the sun who was conflated with Atum. ANSWER: Ra 3.

M.A., LL.B., OF LINCOLN'S INN, BARRISTER-AT-LAW, LONDON. The necessity for meeting a large number of detailed arguments in the course of the great critical controversy as to the origin of the Pentateuch cannot be held to afford any justification for neglecting to take some general view of the task that confronts those who hold conservative opinions. Indeed, reflection shows rather that the efforts which have to be made for the purpose of grappling with individual diffi culties must never be dissevered from the general principles by the aid of which alone success can be obtained: and the circumstance that many conservatives devote their labors to processes which are scarcely likely to prove more profitable than plowing the sands tends to emphasize the desirability of considering the lines along which our work should proceed. It is a condition precedent of all conservative work that the conservative writer should know the higher critical case a great deal better than any critic does. That may sound paradoxical and difficult: it is really the simplest thing in the world. For the conservative must know not merely the Vol.
