With the backdrop of Mount Vesuvius within eyesight, and this is your final stop where you can walk the last 200 metres up to 1,200 metres in total around the crater.

Sorrento - Guided Ischia Tour (Full day) If you’ve been to the region before and already ticked Capri off your list, then a day trip to nearby Ischia might be just the thing.

  • The Neonian Baptistery in Ravenna 359
    Ritual and ReconstructedMeaning: The Neonian Baptisteryin Ravenna Annabel Jane Wharton The pre-modern work of art, which gained authority through its extension in ritual action, could function as a social integrator. This essay investigates the figural decoration of the Orthodox Baptistery in Ravenna, in an effort to explain certain features of the mosaic program. If the initiation ritual is reenacted and the civic centrality of the rite and its executant, the bishop, is restored, the apparent "icon- ographic mistakes" in the mosaics reveal themselves as signs of the mimetic re- sponsiveness of the icon. By acknowledging their unmediated character, it may be possible to re-empower both pre-modern images and our own interpretative strategy.

  • The Syrian Orthodox Church and Its Ancient Aramaic Heritage, I-Iii (Rome, 2001)
    Hugoye: Journal of Syriac Studies 5:1, 63-112 © 2002 by Beth Mardutho: The Syriac Institute SOME BASIC ANNOTATION TO THE HIDDEN PEARL: THE SYRIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH AND ITS ANCIENT ARAMAIC HERITAGE, I-III (ROME, 2001) SEBASTIAN P. BROCK UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD [1] The three volumes, entitled The Hidden Pearl. The Syrian Orthodox Church and its Ancient Aramaic Heritage, published by TransWorld Film Italia in 2001, were commisioned to accompany three documentaries. The connecting thread throughout the three millennia that are covered is the Aramaic language with its various dialects, though the emphasis is always on the users of the language, rather than the language itself. Since the documentaries were commissioned by the Syrian Orthodox community, part of the third volume focuses on developments specific to them, but elsewhere the aim has been to be inclusive, not only of the other Syriac Churches, but also of other communities using Aramaic, both in the past and, to some extent at least, in the present. [2] The volumes were written with a non-specialist audience in mind and so there are no footnotes; since, however, some of the inscriptions and manuscripts etc. which are referred to may not always be readily identifiable to scholars, the opportunity has been taken to benefit from the hospitality of Hugoye in order to provide some basic annotation, in addition to the section “For Further Reading” at the end of each volume. Needless to say, in providing this annotation no attempt has been made to provide a proper 63 64 Sebastian P. Brock bibliography to all the different topics covered; rather, the aim is simply to provide specific references for some of the more obscure items.

  • Culti E Riti a Cagliari in Età Bizantina Rossana Martorelli
    Culti e riti a Cagliari in età bizantina Rossana Martorelli Università di Cagliari L’incremento dato all’edilizia religiosa all’indomani della riconquista giu- stinianea, nell’ottica di una restaurazione dell’ortodossia dopo un periodo travagliato dalle eresie1, comporta l’introduzione di nuovi culti, accanto a forme di devozione già presenti. Strettamente collegata alla motivazione che sottende alla costruzione delle chiese sembra essere - infatti - la scelta dell’intitolazione, ovvero del santo (o dei santi) cui viene dedicato il luogo di culto. Un censimento capillare delle testimonianze storiche, agiografi- che, letterarie, monumentali e materiali relative alla devozione di martiri e santi dalle origini del cristianesimo al medioevo in Sardegna, condot- to nell’ambito delle attività connesse con gli insegnamenti di Archeologia Cristiana e di Archeologia Medievale presso l’Università degli Studi di Ca- gliari, sebbene ancora in atto, ha già fornito dati interessanti e consente di fissare alcune coordinate fondamentali ricorrenti, che dimostrano in ma- niera sempre più evidente la non casualità di tali scelte2. Dall’intero campo dell’indagine, mirato alla ricostruzione del quadro 1 Giustiniano, dopo la riunificazione territoriale dell’impero, perseguì una politica mirata all’unità anche sotto il profilo della religione, completando quel processo di cristianizzazione delle aree orientali ed occidentali già avviato durante i secoli precedenti in tempi e modi diversi nei sin- goli luoghi. L’intensa attività edilizia che vede la proliferazione di chiese in tutto l’impero, talvolta sostenuta dall’imperatore stesso, da funzionari della corte bizantina o da membri dell’aristocrazia, è ben attestata dai testi scritti e dai numerosi monumenti ancora visibili dall’Africa alla Giordania.

The Root Of All Evil: Civic Genealogy From Brunetto To Dante Abstract ABSTRACT THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL: CIVIC GENEALOGY FROM BRUNETTO TO DANTE Chelsea A. Pomponio Kevin Brownlee From the thirteenth century well into the Renaissance, the legend of Florence’s origins, which cast Fiesole as the antithesis of Florentine values, was continuously rewritten to reflect the changing nature of Tuscan society. Modern criticism has tended to dismiss the legend of Florence as a purely literary conceit that bore little relation to contemporary issues. Tracing the origins of the legend in the chronicles of the Duecento to its variants in the works of Brunetto Latini and Dante Alighieri, I contend that the legend was instead a highly adaptive mode of legitimation that proved crucial in the negotiation of medieval Florentine identity. My research reveals that the legend could be continually rewritten to serve the interests of collective and individual authorities. Versions of the legend were crafted to support both republican Guelfs and imperial Ghibellines; to curry favor with the Angevin rulers of Florence and to advance an ethnocentric policy against immigrants; to support the feudal system of privilege and to condemn elite misrule; to denounce the mercantile value of profit and ot praise economic freedom.

Naturally, the importance of my family in this matter was unquestionable – both care and patience they had was boundless and I believe that in the following months I will compensate all the time which I have spent without them. My deepest thanks and re- gards belongs to Robert Born from Universität Leipzig, who showed me many times that his kindliness and unselfishness know no limits. The same can be said about Sabina Ros- enbergová, for she didn’t hesitate to give me her helping hand despite the distance be- tween Brno and Rome. Another indispensable person for completing my thesis was Jakub Kříž – his insight and knowledge were always here, when I was insecure about my next step. And finally, the person I owe the most – Sára. You stood beside me every single day of writing this thesis and only through your infinite amount of ideas, remarks and sup- port I was able to keep my mind clear and my heart confident. I can only hope that one day I will provide the same for you.

  • 1 CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Mater Ecclesia Has Been One of the More
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Mater ecclesia has been one of the more prevalent and unique expressions for conveying the nature and function of the church in Christian thought. Unlike other ecclesial metaphors, such as the Body of Christ or People of God, mater ecclesia lacks a direct scriptural antecedent. Although various maternal images exist in Scripture, none are explicitly associated with the Christian community itself.1 Moreover, the metaphor of mater ecclesia appeared suddenly in late second-century patristic literature and without explanation. Yet, once the image was introduced, patristic writers continuously employed mater ecclesia as an image characterizing the corporate identity of the church. Epitomized in Cyprian‘s oft-repeated dictum, ―One cannot have God for a Father who does not have the church for a mother,‖ patristic writers understood the church‘s maternity as a natural extension of God‘s paternity, and an individual‘s association with her as an absolute requirement for salvation.2 The popularity of this image grew to such an extent, especially in the ancient western church, that the figure of mater ecclesia became the subject of not only ecclesiologically-focused treatises but Christian poetry, mosaics, and architecture as well. 1 Paul S. Minear in his thorough study, Images of the Church in the New Testament, lists and discusses over ninety New Testament images for the Christian community; the church as mother is not among them. Paul S. Minear, Images of the Church in the New Testament (Philadelphia: Westminster Press, 1975). 2 unit. 6 (CCSL 3:253.149-50): ―Habere iam non potest Deum patrem qui ecclesiam non habet matrem‖ (Trans.

  • The Martyrology of the Monastery of the Ascension
    The Martyrology of the Monastery of the Ascension Introduction History of Martyrologies The Martyrology is an official liturgical book of the Catholic Church. The official Latin version of the Martyrology contains a short liturgical service the daily reading of the Martyrology’s list of saints for each day. The oldest surviving martyologies are the lists of martyrs and bishops from the fourth-century Roman Church. The martyrology wrongly attributed to St. Jerome was written in Ital in the second half of the fifth century, but all the surviving versions of it come from Gaul. It is a simple martyrology, which lists the name of the saint and the date and place of death of the saint. Historical martyrologies give a brief history of the saints. In the eighth and ninth centuries, St. Bede, Rhabanus Maurus, and Usuard all wrote historical martyrologies. The Roman Martyrology, based primarily on Usuard’s, was first published in 1583, and the edition of 1584 was made normative in the Roman rite by Gregory XIII. The post-Vatican II revision appeared first in 2001. A revision that corrected typographical errors and added 117 people canonized by Pope John Paul II between 2001 and 2004, appeared in 2005.1 The Purpose and Principles of This Martyology The primary purpose of this martyrology is to provide an historically accurate text for liturgical use at the monastery, where each day after noon prayer it is customary to read the martyrology for the following day. Some things in this martyrology are specific to the Monastery of the Ascension: namesdays of the members of the community, anniversaries of members of the community who have died, a few references to specific events or saints of local interest.
