  • The Elements of Abbreviation in Medieval Latin Paleography
    The elements of abbreviation in medieval Latin paleography BY ADRIANO CAPPELLI Translated by David Heimann and Richard Kay UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LIBRARIES, 1982 University of Kansas Publications Library Series, 47 The elements of abbreviation in medieval Latin paleography BY ADRIANO CAPPELLI Translated by David Heimann and Richard Kay UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS LIBRARIES, 1982 Printed in Lawrence, Kansas, U.S.A. by the University of Kansas Printing Service PREFACE Take a foreign language, write it in an unfamiliar script, abbreviating every third word, and you have the compound puzzle that is the medieval Latin manuscript. For over two generations, paleographers have taken as their vade mecum in the decipherment of this abbreviated Latin the Lexicon abbreviaturarum compiled by Adriano Cappelli for the series "Manuali Hoepli" in 1899. The perennial value of this work undoubtedly lies in the alphabetic list of some 14,000 abbreviated forms that comprises the bulk of the work, but all too often the beginner slavishly looks up in this dictionary every abbreviation he encounters, when in nine cases out of ten he could ascertain the meaning by applying a few simple rules. That he does not do so is simply a matter of practical convenience, for the entries in the Lexicon are intelligible to all who read Latin, while the general principles of Latin abbreviation are less easily accessible for rapid consultation, at least for the American student. No doubt somewhere in his notes there is an out­ line of these rules derived from lectures or reading, but even if the notes are at hand they are apt to be sketchy; for reference he would rather rely on the lengthier accounts available in manuals of paleography, but more often than not he has only Cappelli's dictionary at his elbow.

    i 11 Parallel Lives: Plutarch's Lives, Lapo da Castiglionchio the Younger (1405-1438) and the Art of Italian Renaissance Translation CHRISTOPHER S. CELENZA Before his premature death in 1438 of an outbreak of plague in Ferrara, the Florentine humanist and follower of the papal curia Lapo da Castiglionchio the Younger left behind three main bodies of work in Latin, all still either unedited or incompletely edited: his own self-collected letters, a small number of prose treatises, and a sizeable corpus of Greek-to-Latin translations. This paper concerns primarily the last of these three aspects of his work and has as its evidentiary focus two autograph manuscripts that contain inter alia final versions of Lapo's Latin translations of Plutarch's Lives of Themistocles, Artaxerxes, and Aratus. In addition, however, to studying Lapo's translating techniques, this paper will address chiefly the complexities of motivation surrounding Lapo's choice of dedicatees for these translations. The range of circumstances will demonstrate, I hope, the lengths to which a young, little-known humanist had to go to support himself in an environment where there was as yet no real fixed, institutional place for a newly created discipline. Lapo and Translation: Patronage, Theory, and Practice Of the three areas mentioned, Lapo's translations represent the most voluminous part of his oeuvre and in fact it is to his translations that he owes his modem reputation. But why did this young humanist devote so much energy to translating? And why were Plutarch's Lives such an important part of his effort? An earlier version of this paper was delivered as an Oldfather Lecture at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign on 8 November 1996.

  • The Early Middle Ages
    CHAPTER 7 The Early Middle Ages i' CORONATION OF CHARLEMAGNE . The crowning of Charlemagne by the pope implied that the emperor had a spiritua l responsibility to spread and defend the fait h. (Scala/Art Resource, N. Y.) he establishment of Germanic kingdoms in the fifth and sixth centuries on Roman lands marked the end of the ancient world T and the start of the Middle Ages, a period that spanned a thou­ sand years. During the Middle Ages the center of Western civilization shifted northward from the lands bordering the Mediterranean Sea to parts of Europe that Greco-Roman civilization had barely penetrated. The Early Middle Ages (500-1050) marked an age of transition. The humanist culture that characterized the Greco-Roman past had disinte­ grated, and a new civilization was emerging in Latin Christendom, which covered western and central Europe. Medieval civilization con­ sisted of a blending of the remnants of Greco-Roman culture with Germanic customs and Christian principles. The central element was Christianity; the Christian view of a transcendent God and the quest for salvation pervaded the medieval outlook, and the church was the dom­ inant institution. During the Early Middle Ages, Latin Christendom was a pioneer soci­ ety struggling to overcome invasions, a breakdown ofcentral authority, a decline in trade and town life, and a deterioration of highly refined culture. The Latin Christian church, centered in Rome and headed by the pope, progressively gave form and unity to the new civilization. Christian clergy preserved some of the learning of the ancient world, which they incorporated into the Christian outlook.

  • On the Latin Origins of Spanish Mediante
    languages Article On the Latin Origins of Spanish mediante Esther Artigas Departament de Filologia Clàssica, Romànica i Semítica, Universitat de Barcelona, 08007 Barcelona, Spain; [email protected] Received: 4 February 2019; Accepted: 20 February 2019; Published: 28 February 2019 Abstract: This paper aims to contribute to the clarification of the linguistic and extra-linguistic circumstances that accompany the emergence and behavior of mediante in the first centuries of Spanish. To this end, the origin of the Latin participle medians, mediantis is examined and the evidence of its ablative form mediante in various contexts is also analysed and discussed. We conclude from our study that (1) the appearance of mediante in Latin takes place at a relatively late stage of Latin, it having entered the language as a grammatical calque from Greek; (2) in Latin, prepositional values of mediante, which do not necessarily originate from Latin absolute ablative clauses, are already detected; and finally, (3) discursive traditions and historical-cultural factors, in particular those developed in Patristic and Scholastic Literature, are fundamental for the understanding, not only of the evolution of mediante in Latin, but also of its introduccion into Spanish. Keywords: Latin mediante; grammatical calque; participle clause; prepositional value; discursive tradition 1. Introduction There is no dispute that mediante—a so-called improper, or imperfect, Spanish preposition—is derived from the Latin present participle medians,-ntis in absolute constructions. As it entered Spanish, it must have undergone a process of grammaticalization that led to the transcategorization from participle to preposition.1 Beyond these claims, the Latin origins of mediante have not been well defined, nor has their development in this language been sufficiently described and explained.

  • THE TOWER of CADIZ A.T. Fear*
    THE TOWER OF CADIZ A.T. Fear* In our ancient sources the fame of Cadiz rests on three things; its position at the end of the worldl, the Heracleum at the South of the island2, and its dancing girls3. However for the later Arabic geographers Cadiz contained another wonder which is never mentioned by the classical sources. This feature is the sanam, or ((idol))of Cadiz. ((Idol))being a much better translation of the Arabic than ((temple)) which is occasionally found4. The idol is referred to by many Arabic sources, but most of these were written long after its demolition in the twelfth century A. D. There are, however, three texts which can be regarded as ((primary))sources. The first of these is a fragment of a twelfth century anonymous geographer preserved in the work of al-Maqqari5.This tells us that there was in the town an ((altnenara)) like that at Alexandria. The almenara was made of solid masonry, square in shape with a second storey, also square and one third the size of the first, and a third which was a tapering four sided pyramid capped by a marble block, two spans square. On top of this block was a statue of a man, ((of extraordinary workmanship and fine manufacture)). The whole structure was some 100 cubits high. The statue pointed to the straits of Gibraltar with its left hand, and held its right close to its body, holding its cloak and a stick. The geographer goes on to note that many people belleve that the stick is a key (a statement born out by many of the later Arabic reports), but this is not correct.

  • Introduction to the Anthology
    INTRODUCTION WHAT IS NEO-LATIN LITERATURE? In successive lexical and grammatical guises, Latin continues to be central to European law, politics, philosophy, science, and literature from the time of the collapse of the Roman Empire to the later nineteenth century. [. .] It is scarcely possible to interpret coherently the rhetoric of European literatures, the key notions of sublimity, of satire, of laughter which they embody and articulate without a just awareness of the Latin ‘implication’, of the unbroken, often almost subconscious negotiations of intimacy or of distance between the author in the vulgate and the Latin mould. George Steiner, ‘What is comparative literature?’ (Comparative Criticism, 18, 1996) This anthology defines ‘neo-Latin’ as post-classical, post-medieval Latin, on the understanding that ‘classical’ Latin was written between the first century BCE and the fifth century CE, and that ‘medieval Latin’ refers to the period between c. 500 and c. 1400 CE. During the period covered here, from the fifteenth until well into the twentieth century, across the time-span that Steiner outlines, the status and use of Latin changed considerably. In her influential history of the Latin language, Françoise Waquet addresses the question of Latin’s shifting cultural significance; she asks how its value might be assessed, and explores whether the use of Latin – which she terms the ‘Latin question’ – has rested solely on its educational and rhetorical purposes; or whether the language reflected more strongly the period in which it was produced,

  • Anthony Grafton Reviews 'Latin' by Jürgen Leonhardt, Translated By
    Anthony Grafton reviews ‘Latin’ by Jürgen Leonhardt, translated by Kenneth Kronenberg · LRB 8 January 2015 1/12/15 10:11 PM Back to article page Not Dead Yet Anthony Grafton Latin: Story of a World Language by Jürgen Leonhardt, translated by Kenneth Kronenberg Harvard, 352 pp, £22.95, November 2013, ISBN 978 0 674 05807 1 On 22 May 1724 James Logan, a wealthy Philadelphian fur trader, scientist and bibliophile, took a day trip with friends from London to Windsor. Big crowds accompanied them, and no wonder: they were making their way to a dramatic public occasion – a scientific counterpart to the hangings at Tyburn that drew enthusiastic spectators in droves in the same period. A solar eclipse was about to take place. Two rival astronomers, William Whiston and Edmond Halley, had predicted where it would reach totality. As he had done once before, in 1715, Halley published in advance a map of the shadow that the eclipse would project on the earth, as seen from above – a brilliant feat of visual imagination and a superb disposal of quantitative data. Whiston held that the eclipse would not be total anywhere near London. Halley, by contrast, included Windsor in the zone of totality. Who won? No one knew for certain. ‘Expecting to see the sun wholly obscured,’ Logan recalled, ‘we returned in a state of frustration. For the heavens favoured Halley, since they were covered by clouds. Still, we considered it certain that the moon did not block off all of the sun’s light, as Halley had predicted.’ Four days later, attending a meeting of the Royal Society, Logan heard Isaac Newton ask Halley to discuss the eclipse.
