Hardback, IV+695 p., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503013039. Am 6. April 544 uberreichte Arator seine Historia apostolica, ein Bibelepos, das die Apostelgeschichte in zwei Buchern von 1076 bzw. 1250 Hexametern behandelt, dem Papst Vigilius mit einem Widmungsbrief. Schon sieben Tage nach der Uberreichung begann Arator, inmitten der Wirren des ostgotisch-byzantinischen Krieges, mit Genehmingung des Papstes sein Werk in der Kirche S. Petri ad uincula in Rom offentlich unter grossem Beifall vorzulesen: die letzte offentliche antike Dichterlesung, von der wir Kunde haben. Wege ihres reichen Wortschatzes, ihrer gewandten Ausdrucke, ihrer kuhnen Allegorien und Zahlenmystik und dank ihrem erbaulich-didaktischen Gehalt wurde diese Dichtung im Mittelalter viel gepriesen und gelesen, und ist unter die christlichen , in der Schule zu lesenden Klassiker eingereiht worden. Arator wurde also, bereits im fruhen Mittelalter, zu einem der beliebtesten Dichter und seit der Karolingerzeit wurde auch er im Schulunterricht neben der heidnischen Klassikern verwendet und mitunter selbst uber einen Vergil gestellt. Als Schultext wurde Arators Historia apostolica denn auch zu wiederholten Malen in Autoren-Sammelcodices, versehen mit zahlreichen interlinearen und marginalen Glossen und Kommentaren, uberliefert worden. Unsere neue Edition der Historia apostolica von Arator grundet sich auf alle 27 bis zum Ende des 11. Jahrhunderts (= dem Hohepunkt der Glossierungstatigkeit in den Arator-Handschriften) mit Glossen und Kommentaren versehenen Arator-Hss., und ist zweigliedrig: geboten wird einerseits eine kritische Edition der Historia apostolica mit einem ausfuhrlichen Quellenapparat, welche hinsichtlich der Ausgabe von McKinlay (CSEL 72, Wien 1951) und Perugi (Roma 1911) manche Verbesserungen aufweist, und andrerseits eine erste kritische Ausgabe der mittelalterlichen Glossen und Kommentare zu Arators Historia apostolica. Der kritischen Edition der Historia apostolica und der mittelalterlichen Glossen und Kommentare geht eine eingehende Einfuhrung voraus uber Arators Leben und Werk, das Fortleben der Historia apostolica im Mittelalter, Arator als Schulautor, die Historia apostolica und die Schulautoren-Codices, die handschriftliche Uberlieferung von Arators Historia apostolica, die Testimonia usw. Die Ausgabe schliesst mit einem Appendix zu den Quellen der Historia apostolica, einem Index Biblicus, Index Auctorum und einem Verzeichnis der althochdeutschen Glossen. Languages: Latin, French.

Iohannis Hus Opera omnia brings the Enarratio Psalmorum (Ps. 109-118), first presented as lectures at Charles University in Prague by the Czech reformer Jan Hus (? 1415), probably between 1405 and 1407. Since there are no manuscripts preserved, the critical edition is based on Flacius Illyricus' Nuremberg print from 1558. Languages: Latin, German.

Lullus' Quattuor libri principiorum were developed from the Ars compendiosa inueniendi ueritatem. They were probably written in the period ca. 1274-1283. In these four books we find the main rules of Lullian Art in an early stage, as a muster of Lullus'universal knowledge system. These books are here set together to show the unity of method for theology, philosophy and justice. The traditional matters about medicine are explained with the existing logical constraints taken into account. The chapters on generation and corruption, fever, urine and pulse show the current theory of humours and the optimal levels of the four natural elements, preventive treatments, and the means to recover from illness. The book Principia medicinae is the only one that has parallel textual Catalan tradition. Languages: Latin.
Hardback, 749 p., 1 colour ill., + 1 pl., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503046938. In the 820s, Bishop Frechulf of Lisieux compiled a history of ancient times which he offered, when complete, as a school book for the young prince Charles the Bald. The work ranks as the most expansive historiographical achievement of the Carolingian Age. Its peculiar terminus in A.D. 609 has spurred much commentary, and also made it easy to ignore the Histories as a mere compilation disconnected from contemporary events. Yet by his choice and adjustment of sources, Frechulf used the past as a 'mirror' to address the present. He crafted a vision of history that superseded Rome-centered political myths and, with much else, acutely asserted for a court readership Augustine's ambiguity about political and religious community within a monolithic Christian res publica. Until now, scholars have misread and misjudged Frechulf owing to the absence of a complete and accurate edition of his works. The new text of the Histories fills major gaps, documents recensional variants evidenced in the rich manuscript tradition, and maps in varied typography Frechulf's use and remaking of his sources. The present volume also includes Frechulf's letter-request to Hrabanus Maurus for commentary on the Pentateuch, and the bishop's prologue to his own important recension of Vegetius' Epitoma rei militaris, a second offering to Charles the Bald, which circulated widely and served as the basis for the Italian translation of Vegetius by Bono Giamboni (ca. 1240-ca. 1292). Languages: Latin, English.

L'annee de la celebration du 850e anniversaire de la mort de Guillaume de Saint-Thierry voit la publication dans le cadre du Thesaurus Patrum Latinorum du Thesaurus Guillelmi de Sancto Theodorico, Series A - Formae. La realisation du Thesaurus Guillelmi permet de faire le status quaestionis concernant l'oeuvre de Guillaume, les attributions discutees, l'etat des editions, les traductions, la connaissance des sources, et de mettre en lumiere bien des particularites dont on ne s'est pas encore rendu compte. Le corpus de l'oeuvre de Guillaume peut etre mis en rapport avec la vaste banque de donnees textuelles eleboree par le CETEDOC. Outre les textes bibliques et les oeuvres des grands maitres de la theologie et de la litterature patristiques et medievales, cette banque de donnees comprend un grand ensemble des textes monastiques et, tout particulierement, de nombreux textes cisterciens. On peut ainsi des a present comparer Guillaume a Bernard de Clairvaux, Aelred de Rievaulx, Guerric d'Igny et a la majeure partie des auteurs cisterciens du XIIe siecle. On dispose de la sorte aujourd'hui d'outils radicalement nouveaux pour observer, etudier et mieux connaitre l'oeuvre et la personalite de Guillaume qui se revele a bien des egards un cistercien d'un type particulier. Le Cetedoc a ete fonde par l'Universite Catholique de Louvain et developpe en collaboration avec cette institution. Languages: Latin.
Hardback, CL+373 p., 12 b/w ill., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503542249. Refugie avec sa communaute et sa riche bibliotheque dans les Asturies, seule region de l'Espagne que les envahisseurs arabes renoncerent a occuper, le moine Beatus de Liebana composa vers la fin du huitieme siecle un commentaire de l'Apocalypse, dans lequel il entendait recueillir l'apport de la tradition patristique a l'interpretation de ce livre difficile. C'est ainsi que le commentaire perdu de Tyconius s'y retrouve pratiquement en entier. Pour asseoir sur une base solide la reconstitution de celui-ci, une nouvelle edition critique etait necessaire, les precedentes souffrant de graves insuffisances. L'auteur avait divise le texte de la prophetie johannique en soixante-huit sections, dont chacune est illustree par une enluminure. Elles sont reproduites a leur place dans le texte imprime, pour donner au lecteur une vue aussi complete et exacte que possible de l'exemplaire original. Languages: Latin, French.
Hardback, CC+492 p., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503406213. Rocco Schembra rassemble ici pour la premiere fois le dossier complet des centons homeriques sur le Nouveau Testament. Ces poemes sont en effet conserves dans cinq recensions: deux longues (I et II, comptant respectivement a peu pres 2350 et 1950 vers) et trois breves, jusqu'ici inedites (?, ? et ?, chacune d'environ 650-700 vers), toutes editees ici critiquement et pourvues d'un apparat des sources homeriques et d'un second apparat permettant de visualiser les rapports complexes existant entre ces cinq textes. La tradition manuscrite de la premiere recension longue, probablement composee par un certain Patricius et revue au Ve s. par l'imperatrice Eudocie, ne remonte malheureusement pas au-dela du XIIIe s. Cette recension a connu un plus grand succes que les autres a la Renaissance, comme le montre l'histoire de ses editions entre 1501-1504 (editio princeps Aldina) et 1793 (Teucher), editions qui ont elles-memes donne lieu a une tradition manuscrite assez abondante: 12 manuscrits sont des copies de l'edition aldine, voire meme d'une autre edition du XVIe ou du XVIIe s. La seconde recension longue, attribuee a Optimus le philosophe et a Come de Jerusalem, mais qu'il faut sans doute rendre a l'anonymat, est conservee dans trois manuscrits seulement, dont le plus ancien est date du Xe s. Les trois autres recensions, anonymes, sont des recompositions abregees sur la base des deux recensions longues; elles sont conservees dans un nombre plus ou moins important de manuscrits, qu'on situe entre le XIIIe et le XVIe s. L'ouvrage de Rocco Schembra constitue, apres les editions de M.D. Usher et d'A.-L. Rey, une mise au point definitive ? a moins d'une trouvaille inattendue dans une bibliotheque ? sur la tradition des Homerocentones. Ces textes sont non seulement interessants pour la question de la reception d'Homere aux epoques tardo-antique et byzantine, mais le tour de force litteraire qui les a fait naitre a aussi quelque chose de fascinant. Dans cette mosaique patiente, chaque piece a ete extraite de sa composition originale et replacee, avec les autres, dans un nouveau schema, pour former une nouvelle image. Les actes, les mots et les pensees d'Ulysse, d'Achille et des autres, sont devenus des formes vides, animees d'une nouvelle vie et d'un nouveau message, evangeliques. On peut voir cela bien sur comme une virtuostite gratuite, mais l'on peut aussi y lire le symbole de la creation d'une societe de langue grecque et de foi chretienne. Languages: Greek, Italian.
Hardback, CLXXIX+336 p., 2 b/w ill., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503050195. This work presents the first edition and study of the grammatical compendium commonly attributed to Folchino dei Borfoni. Based on two main manuscripts, it is the first complete modern critical edition of a fourteenth-century Italo-Latin grammar. Originally intended for teaching Latin to native Italian speakers in Cremona during the last quarter of the fourteenth century, the compendium represents a prime example of medieval linguistic theory on the threshold of Italian Humanism. The text will interest not only students of the history of education, grammar, linguistics, and the Latin language, but also those interested in Romance languages and historical linguistics due to the many vernacular-Latin translations used to edify Folchino's rules. DeSantis opens the volume with an extensive introduction in which she presents her findings on Folchino's life, previous scholarship, Folchino's other known works, and manuscript descriptions; she draws on codicological and textual evidence to prove the authenticity of Folchino as the author. The following chapters include a discussion of Folchino's sources, an analysis of the methodology, terminology, content and structure of the text, and a study of the language, both Latin and vernacular, used in the text. An appendix provides a detailed linguistic description of the northern Italian dialect found throughout the grammar.Languages: Latin, English.
Hardback, IV+714 p., 155 x 245 mm. ISBN 9782503411415. In 1927 M. R. James published Latin Infancy Gospels, identified by him in two related but not identical manuscripts (one the British Library Arundel 404; the other from Hereford), together with a parallel text from the Irish manuscript known as the Leabhar Breac. Later researches brought to light more manuscripts of this Latin work, and also of the Irish text. James recognized that his apocryphal Latin Infancy text was compiled from a combination of the Protevangelium of James and a hitherto unknown text which he named "The Source". Recent research has identified a full Latin translation of the Protevangelium of James. A hitherto unrecognized Irish Infancy Narrative has also been identified in the Dublin manuscript known as the Liber Flavus Fergusiorum. A deep study of this related tradition was called for. This has been carried out over the past ten years by an Irish team in conjunction with Professor Daniel Kaestli and AELAC. The fruits of this labour are published in these two volumes. Volume 13 has a general introduction with a historical sketch of New Testament apocrypha in Ireland and a history of research on the subject. This is followed by a comparison of the Infancy Narratives in the Leabhar Breac and the Liber Flavus Fergusiorum. There are special introductions to these Infancy texts, followed by critical editions of the Irish texts, accompanied by English translations and rich annotation. Next there is similar treatment of the Irish versified Narrative (from ca. 700) of the Childhood Deeds of Jesus (commonly known as the Infancy Narrative (or Gospel) of Thomas. There is then (in volume 14, but with continuous pagination) the edition and translation of an Irish thirteenth-century poem with elements from Infancy Narratives, and both Latin and Irish texts on the wonders at Christ's birth, accompanied by translations and notes. The edition of the Irish material is followed by a critical edition of the full Arundel and Hereford forms of the Infancy Narrative (here referred to as the "J Compilation"), together with a detailed study of all the questions relating to this work. The volume concludes with a critical edition (by Rita Beyers) of the Latin text of the Protevangelium of James, accompanied by a detailed study of the work.. The work contains a detailed study of the Latin translations of the Protevangelium of James and the transmission of this work in the West. The "J Compilation" (a combination of the Protevangelium and texts of Pseudo-Matthew) can be traced back in manuscript transmission to ca. 800, and must have originated some time earlier. Behind it stands an earlier "I ("I" for Irish) Compilation" without influence from Pseudo-Matthew, the form found in the Irish witnesses. It is argued that M. R. James's "Source" may be of Judaeo-Christian origin and may really be the Gospel of the Nazoreans. Among the indexes there is a list of all the Irish words found in the texts. This edition of the Irish and related Latin texts is a major contribution to the study of the apocryphal Infancy Narratives. It should also be of particular interest to Celtic scholars, to students of Irish ecclesiastical learning, and in general to all medievalists. Languages: English.

Still, a good copy of a scarce and significant book. New Jersey born John Cosens Ogden (1751-1800) obtained orders in the Church of England, and his chief work was as a missionary He was rector of the Episcopal Church in Portsmouth, New Hampshire (1786-1793); and later he was a presbyter in the Episcopal Church in New York City. Among his earlier writings he published 'A Tour Through Upper and Lower Canada.' The Christian Society called the United Brethren or Moravians in Pennsylvania had obtained great celebrity and generated much curiosity - not only as a religious sect, but also as a socially, economically, and commercially successful people. To observe them for himself, Ogden made a pilgrimage to Bethlehem in September of 1799. In this important work, he describes; their customs; doctrines; education; social structure; architecture; etc. He also discusses for the topography, resources, agriculture, and commercial life of the Bethlehem region. Included too is a history of the Moravians, and he gives a fairly detailed account of their missionary work, especially with the Native American Indians (including an account of the massacre of the Christian Indians at Salem and Gnadenahutten). This is one of the earliest English language accounts of the Moravian Church in colonial America. The printer Charles Cist (1738-1805) was an entrepreneur of the first order. With Melchior Steiner, he established a printing and publishing business. During the American Revolution, he published many documents relating to current events, including Paine's The American Crisis. In 1781 the firm was dissolved, and Cist continued in business alone. He began the publication of The American Herald in 1784, and of the Columbian Magazine in 1786. Cist aided the colonial government during the revolution by endorsing large amounts of continental currency, which he was later compelled to redeem. He was the first person to introduce anthracite coal into general use in the United States. In 1792 he was a member of the Lehigh Coal Company, and brought several wagons full of this coal to Philadelphia, where he offered to give it away. But he could not dispose of it, and was threatened with mob violence for trying to impose on the people with a lot of black stones (coal). In 1793 he was secretary of the Fame Fire Association, and announced that the society had procured a fire-escape apparatus to save persons from burning houses by means of a bucket drawn up to the top of the building. During the administration of John Adams, he became public printer, and established an extensive printing office and book bindery in Washington, D.C., at great expense, for the purpose of publishing public documents.

Hardback, XCI+638 p., 155 x 245 mm,. ISBN 9782503042411. Le dominicain et inquisiteur Etienne de Bourbon (Belleville-sur-Saone, v. 1190/1195 - Lyon, v. 1261) composa a la fin de sa vie dans son couvent de Lyon le Tractatus de diuersis materiis predicabilibus, le plus important recueil medieval de materiaux destines aux predicateurs. Etienne y propose en effet quelque trois mille recits (exempla), sans compter les nombreuses comparaisons empruntees au monde naturel et aux realites de son temps. Il offre aussi des arguments d'ordre theologique et moral (rationes) et des citations (auctoritates). Le Tractatus est organise selon les dons du Saint-Esprit. Son auteur ayant ete surpris par la mort, les deux derniers dons n'ont pas ete traites. Mais l'ensemble de la vie chretienne y est aborde puisque le premier don est consacre aux fins dernieres, le deuxieme au Christ, a la Vierge et a la misericorde, le troisieme a la penitence et a ses oeuvres, le quatrieme aux peches capitaux, le cinquieme aux vertus de prudence, de temperance et de force. Le sixieme don aurait du etre consacre aux dogmes et aux articles de foi, et le septieme a l'amour de Dieu. L'edition precedente (A. Lecoy de la Marche, Paris, 1877) etait tres abregee puisque n'offrant que les recits personnels d'Etienne de Bourbon ou que celui-ci avait appris directement de ses contemporains. Ainsi, pour cette troisieme partie du traite, 11 % de la seule matiere narrative fut editee. Cette nouvelle edition est integrale. Elle offre aussi pour chaque exemplum et chaque comparaison un resume detaille en francais, et l'indication des sources et textes paralleles. Un index detaille des matieres permet de se reperer aisement dans les recits. Ce volume propose l'edition, par J. Berlioz, de la troisieme partie du traite, placee sous le don de science. Y sont traites: la penitence; la contrition; la confession; le jeune; le pelerinage et la croisade; la priere; la perseverance. Y apparaissent 465 recits et comparaisons, empruntes aux sources les plus diverses, et temoignant de l'interaction entre une culture ?« populaire ?» et une culture lettree, latine et clericale.
