  • A Book Or a Tree? a Textual Variant in Revelation 22: 19
    A Book or a Tree? A Textual Variant in Revelation 22: 19 Kevin L. Barney Erasmus On or about October 28, 1466, a boy was born in Rotterdam to Roger Gerard and a woman we know only as Margaret, the daughter of a physician. His birth name was Gerard Gerardson after his father, but he later would take upon himself the name by which he is known to history, Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus. Erasmus was both the name of a saint and the Greek word meaning “desired.” Desiderius was simply the Latin equivalent of Erasmus, and Roterodamus was Latin for “of Rotterdam,” the city with which he would always be closely associated, although he only lived there for the rst four years of his life. Although he was born out of wedlock, he was loved and cared for by his parents until their untimely deaths from the plague in 1483; Erasmus was only a teenager. Now orphaned, he received from the Catholic Church the nest education available to a young man in his day. Not only did he become an outstanding Latinist, but he also managed to learn Greek by studying day and night for three years. He constantly begged his friends in his letters for books and for money to pay his teachers. Erasmus was the rst to publish the New Testament in Greek, something he did in 1516. (The New Testament had already been printed in Greek two years earlier as part of the Complutensian Polyglot, but that work was not actually published until 1520 because the editors had to wait for the Old Testament portion to be nished and sanctioned by Pope Leo X.)1 Erasmus’s project began in 1512 when he undertook a new translation of the New Testament into Latin, declaring, “It is only fair that Paul should address the Romans in somewhat better Latin.”2 Erasmus was a superb Latin stylist, and he knew it (only one with tremendous condence in his Latin skills would dare to emend Jerome’s Vulgate, the established Bible at the time).

  • The Size of the Articular Surfaces of the Long Bones As Characteristic of Sex; an Anthropological Study
    THE SIZE OF THE ARTICULAR SURFACES OF THE LONG BONES AS CHARACTERISTIC OF SEX; AN ANTHROPOLOGICAL STUDY. BY THOMAS DWIGHT, M. D., LL. D., Parkman Professor of Anatomy at the Harvard Medical School. WITH 6 PLATES. The pelvis has long been recognized as a reliable guide to the sex of the skeleton and still longer as the greatest peculiarity of the female figure. From twenty to thirty years ago several papers appeared on the means of determining the sex of the skull. It is, I think, now generally admitted that the skull is of value in the hands of an expert; but the late Professor Brinton very near the end of his life declared that apart from the pelvis there is no guide to the sex among the bones. Hyrtl (1) long ago wrote : " I find the difference between the male and female sternum so clearly expressed by the proportion of the manu- brium to the body that it is hardly possible to err in determining the sex. The manubrium of the female sternum exceeds in length that of half the body; while in the male sternum it is at least twice as long as the manubrium. I (2) was able to show on sufficiently large series that while this was true of the average male and female sterna, it was not true of about 40 per cent of the individual instances, so that it was very possible indeed to err in determining the sex by that means. Prob- ably the rule applies to well-formed bodies, but not to a large proportion of those that we meet with.

  • Yale and the Study of Near Eastern Languages in America, 1770-1930
    Yale and the Study of Near Easter n Languages in America, 1770-1930* Benjamin R. Foster “The very peculiarity of our national destiny, in a moral point of view, calls upon us not only not to be behind, but to be even foremost, in intimate acquain- tance with oriental languages and institutions. The countries of the West, including our own, have been largely indebted to the East for their various culture; the time has come when this debt should be repaid.” -Edward Salisbury, 1848 Introduction As the reverend Johann Christoph Kunze journeyed from Halle to Philadelphia in 1770, he noted with distaste that his shipmates were no representatives of the best educational tra- ditions of his land. Yet the sturdy farmers who accompanied him were to fare better professionally, as a group, than the learned Kunze, for events were to prove that no American col- lege had then a place or resources for a German scholar of Hebrew. Scarcely more than a century later, two American universities, one of them in Philadelphia, were proud to recruit two Leipziger Assyriologists to their nascent Semitic departments. What had occurred in the meantime? The history of American scholarship in biblical, Semitic, and Near Eastern languages may be divided into eight main Benjamin R.

  • True Courage | a Memorial Sermon for General Thomas J
    True Courage | A Memorial Sermon For General Thomas J. “Stone-wall” Jackson by Robert L. Dabney INTRODUCTION Stonewall Jackson General Thomas Jonathan “Stonewall” Jackson, born in the mountains of what is now West Virginia on Jan. 21, 1824, ranks among the most valiant soldiers and skillful tacticians in all military history. After graduating from West Point, Jackson served with distinction in the Mexi- can War and then returned to Virginia to teach natural philosophy and artillery tactics at Virginia Military Institute for 10 years. While in Lexington Jackson lived an exemplary life, serving as a Deacon in the Presbyterian Church and founding and teaching in a Sunday School for slaves. With the war Jackson entered the service of the Confederacy. He was given his famous nick-name on July 21, 1861, at the first battle of Manassas. Confederate troops had been put to flight by a powerful Union advance. General Bernard Bee of South Carolina, seeking desperately to stem the tide, saw Jackson and his troops standing firm. Bee cried, “There stands Jackson like a stone wall. Rally behind the Virginians!” With that stand the battle turned from a Confederate defeat to a Federal rout, and from that day forward Jackson’s was known as the Stone-wall Bri- gade. Of this engagement Jackson wrote to his wife on July 22nd, “Yesterday we fought a great battle, and gained a great victory, for which all the glory is due to God alone.”1 In 1863, while defeating Federal forces at Chancellorsville, Jackson was accidentally shot by his own men and died eight days later.

The correspondence provides the project’s central research question: What conditions existed to allow the two Harvard academics, principally Dwight, to manufacture a coordinated campaign to legalize the mandatory surrender of Massachusetts’s unclaimed dead? Massachusetts was the first American state to pass an anatomy act in 1831 that provided for the optional surrender of the state-managed dead to Massachusetts medical schools. This act, while a triumph for the Massachusetts medical education community, failed to create a consistent and reliable cadaver supply as body surrender was left to the discretion of institution superintendents.
