Reviewed by Michael Dudley The Rational Shakespeare: Peter Ramus, Edward de Vere, and the Question of Authorship. By Michael Wainwright. Palgrave Macmillan 2018 (324 pp.) in hardcover, paperback and Kindle. he question regarding the authorship of the Works of Shakespeare has for generations been dismissed by most of the intelligentsia as patent Tnonsense or a conspiracy theory—in short, as highly irrational—with a correspondingly dim view of its proponents’ intelligence and sanity. It is therefore singularly refreshing and impres- sive that a scholarly work that acknowledges Edward de Vere as Shakespeare should be entirely premised on an exploration of rationalism, not only in terms of the worldview apparent in the Shakespeare canon, but as a structured argument unto itself.

Historians rarely offer more than a brief biography and often neglect to mention at all his key role in the Great Schism. Yet, the very absence ofPope Benoit XIU from most historical narratives of medieval history itself highlights the active role that historians play in determining what gets recorded. In some cases, the choices that people make in determining what does, and what does not, get included in historical accounts reveals as much about the motivations and intentions of the people recording that past as it does about their subjects. This essay studies one example of this problem, in this case Europeans during the Reformation era who self-consciously manipulated sources from medieval history to promote their own agendas. We can see this in the sixteenth-century translation ofa treatise written by the medieval theologian Nicholas de Clamanges (1363-1437. Clamanges was a university professor and served as Benoit XIII's secretary during the Great Schism in Avignon, France. The treatise, entitled La Traite de fa Ruine de f'Eglise, was written in Latin in 1398 and was first distributed after Clamanges' death in 1437.

  • The Proclaimed and Visible Word PETER H
    Word & World 7/2 (1987) Copyright © 1987 by Word & World, Luther Seminary, St. Paul, MN. All rights reserved. page 179 The Proclaimed and Visible Word PETER H. VAN NESS Union Theological Seminary, New York, New York In a recent book, Habits of the Heart, Robert Bellah and colleagues report on the current status of American individualism. As has been the case since Alexis de Tocqueville’s Democracy in America, such reflections reveal an enduring feature of American social life. In Bellah’s words: “The inner tensions of American individualism add up to a classic case of ambivalence. We strongly assert the value of our self-reliance and autonomy. We deeply feel the emptiness of a life without sustaining social commitments.”1 The consequences of the American individualist credo can be loneliness, when autonomy is too greatly valued, or conformism, when a rejection of traditional authority combines with an excessive deference to contemporary peers. David Riesman coined the phrase “the lonely crowd” to describe the American social character which suffers in both of these ways.2 One of Bellah’s remedies for such social ills is the nurturing of a culture of meaning and coherence. “We need to learn again from the cultural riches of the human species and to reappropriate and revitalize those riches so that they can speak to our condition today.”3 Biblical and republican traditions stand foremost in Bellah’s list of cultural legacies in need of revitalization. Many Americans seek relief from contemporary social distress in communities of religious worship. The Christian community at worship seems to be a fitting antidote to the social ills portrayed here.

Rien d'autre ne subsiste de cette grande œuvre d'art commencée à la Renaissance, portée à son apogée au début du XVIII siècle et terminée enfin sous le Premier Empire : le vaste château a disparu, comme ont disparu ses annexes : la grotte du Cardinal de Lorraine, l'Aile des Marronniers et le Château-Neuf du Grand Dauphin ; l'immense parc a été divisé, morcelé ; les jardins sont retour- nés à l'état de nature, ou devenus des terrains de lotisse- ment. C'est une grande perte pour le patrimoine artistique de notre pays : le château de Meudon, chef-d'œuvre du goût français sous toutes ses formes, émerveillerait les yeux des étrangers plus encore à l'heure présente qu'il ne le fit autre- fois, et il offrirait à nos artistes des modèles remarquables.

  • Surnames in Europe
    DOI: http://dx.doi.org./10.17651/ONOMAST.61.1.9 JUSTYNA B. WALKOWIAK Onomastica LXI/1, 2017 Uniwersytet im. Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu PL ISSN 0078-4648 [email protected] FUNCTION WORDS IN SURNAMES — “ALIEN BODIES” IN ANTHROPONYMY (WITH PARTICULAR REFERENCE TO POLAND) K e y w o r d s: multipart surnames, compound surnames, complex surnames, nobiliary particles, function words in surnames INTRODUCTION Surnames in Europe (and in those countries outside Europe whose surnaming patterns have been influenced by European traditions) are mostly conceptualised as single entities, genetically nominal or adjectival. Even if a person bears two or more surnames, they are treated on a par, which may be further emphasized by hyphenation, yielding the phenomenon known as double-barrelled (or even multi-barrelled) surnames. However, this single-entity approach, visible e.g. in official forms, is largely an oversimplification. This becomes more obvious when one remembers such household names as Ludwig van Beethoven, Alexander von Humboldt, Oscar de la Renta, or Olivia de Havilland. Contemporary surnames resulted from long and complicated historical processes. Consequently, certain surnames contain also function words — “alien bodies” in the realm of proper names, in a manner of speaking. Among these words one can distinguish: — prepositions, such as the Portuguese de; Swedish von, af; Dutch bij, onder, ten, ter, van; Italian d’, de, di; German von, zu, etc.; — articles, e.g. Dutch de, het, ’t; Italian l’, la, le, lo — they will interest us here only when used in combination with another category, such as prepositions; — combinations of prepositions and articles/conjunctions, or the contracted forms that evolved from such combinations, such as the Italian del, dello, del- la, dell’, dei, degli, delle; Dutch van de, van der, von der; German von und zu; Portuguese do, dos, da, das; — conjunctions, e.g.

  • On the Historical Origins of the Heidelberg Catechism
    Acta Theologica 2014 Suppl 20: 16-34 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/actat.v20i1.2S ISSN 1015-8758 © UV/UFS <http://www.ufs.ac.za/ActaTheologica> C. Strohm ON THE HISTORICAL ORIGINS OF THE HEIDELBERG CATECHISM ABSTRACT Reflection on the origins of the Heidelberg Catechism reveals it to be a document of understanding between Calvinistic-Reformed, Zwinglian and Lutheran-Philippistic tendencies within Protestantism. One important reason for the success of the Heidelberg Catechism was the fact that each one of these groups appreciated the Catechism. At the same time it clearly distances itself from Tridentine Catholicism and from the Gnesio-Lutheran variant of Lutheranism. This occurs mainly in the doctrine of the Lord’s Supper. The repudiation of the mass as “condemnable idolatry” is a result of the orientation to the Reformation of John Calvin. Here papal religion was seen as superstition and a fundamental violation of the true worship of God as well as an infringement of God’s honour. The experience of persecution by the Papal church in France and the Netherlands aggravated the criticism. The most famous and influential part of the Heidelberg Catechism is its first question and answer: Q. What is your only comfort in life and in death? A. That I am not my own, but belong – body and soul, in life and in death – to my faithful Savior, Jesus Christ. He has fully paid for all my sins with his precious blood, and has set me free from the tyranny of the devil. He also watches over me in such a way that not a hair can fall from my head without the will of my Father in heaven; in fact, all things must work together for my salvation.

    Acta Poloniae Historica 62, 1990 PL ISSN 0001 - 6829 Maria Bogucka MARY STUART IN LEGEND* Modern biography is increasingly more seldom satisfied with the presentation of lives of outstanding personages, but in order to fully appreciate their role it reaches out for the posthumous fortunes of its heroes. The study of legends that surround certain personalities, legends which may have little in common with their real life story and yet throughout centuries live their own lives, frequently richer than the real ones, is an exciting task. Many facts seen in this light take on new meaning ; popularity and persistence of certain threads allows one to discover the secret ways in which historical consciousness is formed, which so often has a lot in common with the subconscious, and at any rate it grows out of it. On the other hand, one happens to come across the traces of manipulating the legend, creating it out of political or religious motivations, or utilizing it for the current needs of social groups or even whole nations. One of the most famous women in history—Mary Stuart— gave birth to a legend, or more precisely speaking to two, extremely controversial legends : the white and the black one. Controversy around them goes on to this day. However, although the bibliography of works connected with the tragic fate of the * The research for this essay was completed during two stays abroad : in 1984 at Wolfenbüttel, FRG (Herzog-August-Bibliothek fellowship) and in 1988 at Wassenaar, the Netherlands (fellowship of the Netherlands Institute for Advanced Studies in the Humanities and Social Science).

  • Not a Covenant of Works in Disguise” (Herman Bavinck1): the Place of the Mosaic Covenant in Redemptive History
    MAJT 24 (2013): 143-177 “NOT A COVENANT OF WORKS IN DISGUISE” (HERMAN BAVINCK1): THE PLACE OF THE MOSAIC COVENANT IN REDEMPTIVE HISTORY by Robert Letham READERS WILL DOUBTLESS be aware of the argument that the Mosaic covenant is in some way a republication of the covenant of works made by God with Adam before the fall. In recent years, this has been strongly advocated by Meredith Kline and others influenced by his views. In this article I will ask some historical and theological questions of the claim. I will also consider how far Reformed theology, particularly in the period up to the production of the major confessional documents of the Westminster Assembly (1643-47), was of one mind on the question. 2 I will concentrate on the argument itself, without undue reference to persons.3 1. Herman Bavinck, Reformed Dogmatics, Volume 3: Sin and Salvation in Christ (Grand Rapids: Baker Academic, 2006), 222. 2.
