Forsa the sabranska mysteries, get to know the secrets that made brundusierna so rich, understand marajiputternas brutal fanaticism and unconditional surrender to the black tobacco, nattländarnas desperate escape and ice barbarians worship of Snow Witch. Then I have the book for you my friend. Just look up Melkastors "The chronopian peoples", which delivers the wise man and adventurer all the wisdom you need. If he is still alive? No. When the book arrived, he was executed for blasphemy by the emperor. Read - and maybe you will understand why. Human ethnicities During my many long and intense years as a guest in the brutal, multifaceted and legendary chronopian reality, I had the dubious pleasure to encounter the most varied gallery of the known world has to offer, bump into high and low, exchange experiences with sabranska desert knights, brundusiska trade princes and blue skinned isbarbarer with frosty mustache. I have engaged in telepathy with charibiska hexbarons, given boozed Red Corsairs on the nut, fled howling marajiputtiska fanatics and young and inexperienced taken refuge in faltrakiernas false bosom and sold as a slave to the salt mines.

    Christ Exhibited and the Covenant Confirmed: The Eucharistic Theology of John Owen John C. Bellingham, MDiv Faculty of Religious Studies McGill University, Montreal February 27, 2014 Submitted to the Faculty of Religious Studies at McGill University in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts There is a reception of Christ as tendered in the promise of the gospel; but here [in the Lord’s Supper] is a peculiar way of his exhibition under outward signs, and a mysterious reception of him in them, really, so as to come to a real substantial incorporation in our souls. This is that which believers ought to labour after an experience of in themselves; …. they submit to the authority of Jesus Christ in a peculiar manner, giving him the glory of his kingly office; mixing faith with him as dying and making atonement by his blood, so giving him the glory and honour of his priestly office; much considering the sacramental union that is, by his institution, between the outward signs and the thing signified, thus glorifying him in his prophetical office; and raising up their souls to a mysterious reception and incorporation of him, receiving him to dwell in them, warming, cherishing, comforting, and strengthening their hearts. – John Owen, DD, Sacramental Discourses XXV.4 ii Table of Contents Acknowledgments iv Abstract v Résumé vi Introduction: John Owen and the Lord’s Supper 1 Chapter 1: The Life and Times of John Owen 9 Chapter 2: John Owen’s Sixteenth Century Inheritance 35 Chapter 3: The Lord’s Supper in Reformed Orthodoxy 80 Chapter 4: John Owen’s Eucharistic Theology 96 Conclusion 133 Bibliography 137 iii Acknowledgments I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the following people without whom this project would not have been possible.

  • Die Reformation in Schaffhausen Und Ihre Besonderheiten
    ISSN 0254–4407 – Zwingliana 39 (2012), 79–92 Die Reformation in Schaffhausen und ihre Besonderheiten Erich Bryner 1. Politisch exponierte Lage Schaffhausen liegt keine 50 km nördlich von Zürich, hat aber in der Reformationsgeschichte eine eigene Entwicklung durchlaufen. Stadt und Landschaft Schaffhausen wurden 1501 als zwölfter Ort in die Eidgenossenschaft aufgenommen, also nur zwei Jahrzehnte vor der Reformation. Durch seine geographische Lage war Schaff- hausen politisch stark exponiert. Es liegt nördlich des Rheins; mit Zürich war es mit einer schmalen Rheingrenze verbunden, auf mehr als drei Seiten von habsburgischen Landen umgeben, in de- nen die Reformation nicht Fuß fasste, mit deren Bevölkerung je- doch ein reger Handelsverkehr und viele persönliche Beziehungen bestanden. Die Landschaftsgebiete wurden durch Kauf erworben und hatten oft keine natürlichen Grenzen. Die bischöfliche Herr- schaft Neunkirch-Hallau kam erst 1525 zu Schaffhausen. Aus die- sen Gründen führte die Schaffhauser Regierung in den Angelegen- heiten der Reformation eine konservative Politik.1 1 Vgl. die Karte »Die Entwicklung des Stadtstaates Schaffhausen«, in der die terri- torialen Verhältnisse und die Erwerbungen bis 1530 eingetragen sind, in: Hektor Am- mann, Karl Schib, Historischer Atlas der Schweiz, Aarau 21958, 47. 80 Erich Bryner 2. Parallele Entwicklungen zu Zürich? Im vorreformatorischen Schaffhausen gab es zwei Kreise, in denen Lutherschriften gelesen wurden: Einmal das Benediktinerkloster Allerheiligen unter der Leitung von Abt Michael Eggenstorfer

  • Ornament As Argument: Textile Pages and Textile Metaphors in Medieval German Manuscripts (800—1100)
    Ornament as Argument: Textile Pages and Textile Metaphors in Medieval German Manuscripts (800—1100) by Anna Bücheler A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto © Copyright by Anna Bücheler 2014 Ornament as Argument: Textile Pages and Textile Metaphors in Medieval German Manuscripts (800—1100) Anna Bücheler Doctor of Philosophy Department of Art University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This dissertation explores notions of ornamentation and issues of materiality in early and high medieval manuscript illumination. Focusing on ornament that evokes the weave patterns of Byzantine and Islamic silk in tenth and eleventh century manuscripts from Echternach, Einsiedeln, Reichenau, and elsewhere, this study argues that—in specific contexts—ornament has meaning and serves functions that go beyond mere decoration. The dissertation contextualizes so-called textile pages in the codicological and iconographic structure of the manuscripts in which they appear and examines them in light of exegetical texts that discuss the function and metaphoric meaning of matter in religious art. After the first chapter clarifies the formal relationship between medieval textiles and textile ornament, the subsequent chapters bring the ornamental images together with various textile metaphors. From such a reading of textile iconography emerge three major strands of meaning: the notion of scripture as a veil of revelation, the Incarnation as a symbolic garment, and textile-ornamented manuscripts as the corporeal book-bodies of scripture. In addition to an investigation of the allegorical meaning of textile ornament, a discussion of the function of physical matter in private meditation and the ii liturgy opens new perspectives on the utility and necessity of physical props for contemplative and liturgical purposes in medieval worship.

This is one of the earliest obtainable maps to show an ocean to the west of the American continent, which is not yet named. It is also one of the earliest obtainable maps to use the name America, the first being the Waldseemuller map in 1507 (one known example) and the second (and earliest obtainable) being the Peter Apian map of 1520. The map shows North America as a narrow unrecognizable sliver, while South America is recognizable. The Old World appears much as we know it, except for the "tail" that seems to connect the East Indies to the continent of Asia. This "tail" is a remnant of the Ptolemaic world map that depicted the Indian Ocean as an inland sea surrounded by land. Here, there are no lands to the south, although Scandinavia extends right to the North Pole. The map shows a passage between the Americas and Terra de Cuba in North America rather than an isthmus. The toponyms used on the map are an eclectic mix of Ptolemaic and modern geographical place names.

  • Letter-Writing in the Early Swiss Reformation: Zwingli's Neglected Correspondence
    Letter-Writing in the Early Swiss Reformation: Zwingli's Neglected Correspondence (Nigel Harris, Zürich, 7th May 2019) Is a letter a private document? Well, yes; or so I and probably all of us were brought up to believe. Certainly to this day, if a letter arrives at home addressed to my wife or to one of our children, I will on principle never open it – even if I know who it’s from and what it’s likely to contain. It just seems wrong. It seems, literally, none of my business. And so my instinct always tells me just not to do it. With some other kinds of communication, of course, the public/private divide is less clear cut. When I send an e-mail, for example, I can address a great many people at once. Some of them I probably will not know personally. And sometimes, of course, I might end up sending an e-mail by mistake to someone I am very keen actually shouldn’t read it. Mistaking the ‘reply’ button for the ‘reply to all’ button can, as we all know, get you into a lot of trouble. We’ve probably all been there. And with still more modern forms of ‘social’ media, such as Facebook and Twitter, this public/private divide can be still more problematic – so much so, indeed, that I at least shy away from them entirely. The idea of details about my private thoughts or my social and family life being shared, in principle, with absolutely anybody fills me with horror. What on earth has it got to do with anyone else? And, anyway, what gives me the right to imagine that other people are interested in what I’m doing or thinking? Isn’t that just arrogant? Well, I suppose that kind of attitude is a generational thing, and I’m showing my age in adopting it.
