In Rome, they belonged to accountants who fashioned registers noting when accounts were due. But then, I imagine, some poor bookkeeper discovered that this would be a convenient place to record other important dates - like birthdays and anniversaries! Calendars have, of course, become useful aides-mémoires, and in the Wycliffe Calendar you will find a small section that contains important deadlines and notices for the coming academic year (though you are on your own for anniversaries!).

  • Philo's and Paul's Retelling of the Abraham Narrative in De Abrahamo
    Philo’s and Paul’s Retelling of the Abraham Narrative in De Abrahamo and Galatians 3–4 and Romans 4 ID # 260575888 Shekari, Elkanah Kuzahyet-Buki Faculty of Religious Studies (FRS), McGill University, Montreal April, 2015 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts in Religious Studies © Copyright Elkanah Kuzahyet-Buki Shekari, 2015 1 ABSTRACT The Abraham narrative found in Genesis 11:26–25:10 has been retold in different ways by both Jews and non-Jews. All the re-tellers wanted to point out the way in which the Abraham narrative impacted people. The history of research on Abraham in the last century, shows little or no interests in the re-tellers of the Abraham narrative. For example, their primary sources, styles of text selection, and arrangement of the selected data in retelling the story of Abraham. Rather, the history of research shows that scholars were more interested on the reliability of the narrative, the religion of Abraham and his role as the ancestor of the Jews and of the non-Jews. My primary focus is on Philo’s and Paul’s retelling of the Abraham narrative, their primary source; their selection from the source; their arrangement of the events, and their goals for retelling the story of Abraham. I used the insights of producing history of Hayden White, a literary critic and philosopher of history. White’s insights show how historians select from their primary sources by means of their plot-structure, in order to retell past events by means of the historians emplotment, argument, ideological implications, and use of figurative language (tropes).
