It arose out of coursework for a manuscript studies class offered through the Department of English, and it is focused primarily on codicology, the study of the manuscript as a material object, as well as historical and cultural contexts. Although I have a very limited knowledge of Latin, the language of the fragment in question, this project entails a full transcription of Latin text and a collation with other Latin manuscripts. Abbreviations were expanded in accordance with comparison manuscripts and an early print edition of the text, as well as through consultation with Adriano Capelli’s Dizionario di Abbreviature Latine ed Italiani. Training and consultation with my supervisor, Dr. Adrienne Williams Boyarin, was also crucial. The scope of this project highlights how much can be learned about a text by studying its material form. Introduction Victoria, McPherson Library, Fragm.Lat.4 is a single-leaf fragment with text concerning various fruits and vegetables. It was acquired for the University of Victoria in 2006 by book historian Kendrick 2 Erik Kwakkel (University of Leiden).1 At that time, Kwakkel determined that it was written in France ca.

  • World Map of Al-‘Umari #226.1
    World Map of al-‘Umari #226.1 TITLE: The Mamunic World Map DATE: 1340 AUTHOR: Ahmad ibn Yahya ibn Fadlallah al-‘Umari DESCRIPTION: The geographic work Masalik al-aNar fi mainalik al-amsar [Ways of Perception Concerning the Most Populous [Civilized] Provinces] was written by Ahmad Ibn Fadlalldh al-Umari (died 1349), a distinguished administrator and author who was active in Cairo and Damascus under Mamluk rule. He claims that the map is a copy of the world map made for Caliph al-Ma’mun (reigned 813-833); also mentioned by al-Mas’udi (#212) earlier. The world map shown here is reproduced in this manuscript of the work of al- ‘Umari. The same manuscript also has maps of the first three climates. Although the climates are not divided into sections, the general impression is that the maps are derived from those of al-Idrisi (#219). However, from its appearance it seems to have been compiled from the text of the Kitab bast al-ard fi tuliha wa-al-‘ard [Exposition of the earth in length and breadth] by Ibn Sa‘id (#221). Al-‘Umari’s text does mention a map and gives a few examples of longitude and latitude, but on the whole they do not correspond with positions given on the map. Most of the Istanbul manuscripts of Ibn Fadlallah al-‘Umari’s work are undated. However, the earliest one to be dated is 1585, suggesting that this and most other copies were prepared for the libraries of the Ottoman sultans of that period. By that time the idea of a graticule was well known from European sources and could have been added to bring the map up to date.

The following Translations, executed at intervals during the last twenty years, appeared from time to time in Kilmarnock or Glasgow journals. They were undertaken solely as a literary solace, and with no view to subsequent collection and republication. But during late years I have been asked so often, and by so many, to republish them that I at last reluctantly consented. However, I had got jaded, and I shrank from the labour of revision. But I did them at first as carefully as I could, and I am not sure that by revision I should have improved them. Still, if I did not think they had some merit, especially that of fidelity, no solicitation, however urgent, would have induced me to republish. The name of the translators of the Gicek ti Anthology, to a larger or smaller extent, is Legion, and among these have been some of our countrymen the most eminent for scholarship and poetic genius. This effort of mine, there- fore, may appear presumptuous; but I am neither weak enough nor vain enough to enter the lists as a rival to these, nor do I offer my little book as a critical guide.

  • Exegesis of Biblical Theophanies in Byzantine Hymnography: Rewritten Bible?
    Theological Studies 68 (2007) EXEGESIS OF BIBLICAL THEOPHANIES IN BYZANTINE HYMNOGRAPHY: REWRITTEN BIBLE? BOGDAN G. BUCUR The article discusses the interpretation of biblical theophanies in Byzantine hymns associated with the so-called Improperia tradition. After presenting the exegesis of specific theophanies as exemplified in hymns, the author argues that this type of exegesis is difficult to frame within the categories commonly used to describe patristic exegesis. He suggests that patristic scholars should instead consider the category “Rewritten Bible” current among scholars of the Old Testament Pseudepigrapha. HE INTERPRETATION OF BIBLICAL THEOPHANIES holds an important T place in the polemical and catechetical articulation of early Chris- tianity’s religious claims. While considerable attention has been given to the exegesis of theophanies in the New Testament and other early Chris- tian (especially pre-Nicene) writings, the use of theophanies in Christian hymns has received far less attention. This is unfortunate, because by the very nature of its performative character, hymnographic material has en- joyed a wider circulation and reception than most patristic writings. The following pages will take into consideration Byzantine hymns of a distinct type, whose roots stretch back to the early patristic era, and that are stillin use in Eastern Orthodox worship. I will first discuss the hymnographic exegesis of specific biblical theophanies (e.g., God’s manifestation to Abra- ham, Jacob, Moses, Isaiah, Ezekiel) and then attempt to “categorize” this type of exegesis. As will become apparent, the biblical exegesis present in these hymns is difficult to frame within the categories commonly used to describe patristic exegesis. Perhaps surprisingly, it appears that the closest parallels can be drawn to the category “Rewritten Bible,” current among scholars who investigate the biblical interpretation of the Old Testament Pseudepigrapha.

This series focuses on the resulting diversity within Late Antique society, emphasizing cultural connections and exchanges; questions of unity and inclusion, alienation and conflict; and the processes of syncretism and change. By drawing upon a number of disciplines and approaches, this series sheds light on the cultural and social history of Late Antiquity and the greater Mediterranean world.

  • The Role of Maximos Planudes and Nikephoros Gregoras in the Transmission of Cassius Dio’S Roman History and of John Xiphilinos’ Epitome
    The Role of Maximos Planudes and Nikephoros Gregoras in the Transmission of Cassius Dio’s Roman History and of John Xiphilinos’ Epitome The Transmission of Ancient Greek History in Context Comparison with dated manuscripts has made it possible to place the oldest manu- scripts of Greek historians in Constantinople in the first half or middle of the tenth century.1 This location in the early Macedonian period, provided by palaeographi- cal analysis, fits in very well with the recovery of court oratory in the reign of Leo VI (886-912),2 and it is also very appropriate for the interests of the learned emper- or Constantine VII Porphyrogenitus (913-959),3 himself a historian and the pro- moter of the Excerpta Constantiniana, the famous books that rearranged historical fragments according to their moral or political content.4 These historical veteres are parchment books of excellent quality, which, among other reasons, explains their preservation. On the other hand, we have very few or no copies of ancient historians from the late Macedonian and Komnenian period, either because manuscripts, being made of more fragile material (paper), were easi- This research has been conducted thanks to MICINN funds (project FFI2012-37908-C02-02). 1 It is difficult to be certain about the age of the manuscripts of which these earliest preserved witnesses are copies. They may have been minuscule codices from the eighth-ninth centuries or, after a long period of lack of interest in Ancient History, they may reproduce Late Antique codices written in majuscules. Indeed, mistakes in reading Greek majuscules may define differ- ent families in the textual transmission, even if this does not imply that the model copied in the tenth century was actually written in majuscules.
