  • ECCLESIAE OCCIDENTALIS MONUMENTA IURIS ANTIQUISSIMA Ed
    ECCLESIAE OCCIDENTALIS MONUMENTA IURIS ANTIQUISSIMA ed. C.H. Turner (Oxford, 1899-1939) Index of Names and Selected Words Corrected, revised, and extended 2008 by Philip R. Amidon, S.J. Creighton University [email protected] It has seemed opportune to republish this index in a corrected and extended version; there has been added to the list of names a list of selected words, and the method of referring to the text has been somewhat altered. The exact scope of C.H. Turner’s masterpiece is not immediately apparent from its title or subtitles (Canonum et conciliorum graecorum interpretationes latinae; Canones et concilia graeca ab antiquis interpretibus latine reddita). What one in fact finds here is an edition of the earliest surviving collections of church canons in Latin which are undoubtedly from the fourth century or have been assigned to it by at least some consensus of scholarship; some of them are translations from Greek, while others were originally drafted in Latin itself. Most of them, with the exception of the Apostolic Constitutions and Canons, are attributed to church councils. Turner, however, also offers a selection of doctrinal and historical material of enormous value, some of it indeed connected to the councils whose canons he edits; a comparison, for instance, of the creed contained in the synodical letter of the Council of Sardica with the Tomus Damasi, will suggest how far the doctrinal education of the western church advanced during the course of the fourth century. The connection of other historical matter to the canons is less obvious, however; one wonders what the Athanasian Historia acephala is doing here (granted that it is part of the collection of Theodosius the Deacon), however grateful one is to have the edition.

Creatures from Greek myth. Of course, there are plenty of other entries that would fit nicely into a Greek campaign with a suitable name change: giants, passion spirits and so on. The great pull of roleplaying the ancient Greeks, however, is not the 'fit' of many monsters or races, but the unique and atmospheric society of the day. Nodding horse-hair crests, long-shadowed spears, many-columned temples of marble, triremes surging across turquoise seas guided by painted eyes on the prow, phalanxes of grim hoplites, unconformist philosophers debating science under shady colonnades ... classical Greece. WARLORDS OF ALEXANDER is a fantasy setting for Chaosium Inc.'s Basic Roleplaying Game. A gamemaster need only have a copy of Call of Cthulhu, Stormbringer, or Elric! to play.

  • Theological Studies JANUARY, 1914 DOCUMENTS CANONS ATTRIBUTED to the COUNCIL of CON­
    The journal of Theological Studies JANUARY, 1914 DOCUMENTS CANONS ATTRIBUTED TO THE COUNCIL OF CON­ . STANTINOPLE, A.D. 381, TOGETHER WITH THE NAMES OF THE BISHOPS, FROM TWO PATMOS MSS POB' POr'. IN the year 1898 I was enabled, through the good offices of my colleague Mr D. G. Hogarth, at that time Director of the British School at Athens, to obtain a transcript of a good deal of the matter contained in two MSS at Patmos, POB' and POi''-sister MSS, each of them written somewhere about A.D. Soo-which are our oldest witnesses to the text of the Greek Canon Law. So far as I know, they have never been employed by any editor; and I myself had only made occasional use of my transcript, as a check on the printed texts, when I wanted to know what was the Greek original underlying any particular passage of the Latin versions of the councils. It was only when I had it in my mind to propose to the Clarendon Press the publication of a manual edition of the early Greek canons (that is, of the fourth and fifth centuries) that I examined my material more closely. The most obvious difference between Greek and Latin MSS of Canons, taken in the mass, is the striking resemblance of the former among themselves contrasted with the almost in{inite degrees of divergence from one another which prevail in the latter. The contents of Greek canonical MSS are always more or less the same : the greater surprise was it to find in the Patmos MSS a series of canons attributed to the Council of Constantinople (A.D.

  • Epitome of the Ecclesiastical History Of
    EPITOME OF THE ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY OF PHILOSTORGIUS, COMPILED BY PHOTIUS, PATRIARCH OF CONSTANTINOPLE. TRANSLATED BY EDWARD WALFORD, M. A. LATE SCHOLAR OF BALLIOL COLLEGE, OXFORD. London: Henry G. Bohn, York Street, Covent Garden. MDCCCLV. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTICE OF PHILOSTORGIUS BY THE TRANSLATOR. ALL that is known with certainty of Philostorgius is that he was a native of Cappadocia, and was born of humble parentage about the year A. D. 364. It would seem came to Constantinople in his youth to complete his studies; but it is uncertain whether he was educated for the legal or for the ecclesiastical profession. In later life he composed a History of the Church, comprised in twelve books from the beginning of the Arian schism down to the year AD. 425. The work itself is no longer extant; but we have an Epitome of it compiled by Photius, who was appointed to the Patriarchal see of Constantinople, A. D. 853, and under whom the schism between the Eastern and Western churches was formally consummated. We have also a short notice of this work in the Bibliotheca of the same learned writer (Myriobiblion, Cod. 40). It is to be observed that Photius, although he was the author of the expulsion of the term "Filioque" from the Nicene Creed, inveighs throughout his Epitome against Philostorgius as a heretic and impious person, and as a friend and apologist of Arius, Eusebius of Nicomedia, Apollinaris, and other heretics of the fourth and fifth centuries. p428 Philostorgius would seem to have been a person possessed | of a considerable amount of general information, and he has inserted in his narrative many curious geographical and other details about remote and unknown countries, and more especially about the interior of Asia and Africa.
