143725EIE 2008-2010. Brand new. In medieval greek. Two volumes. Cloth 33x22 cm 185220 pp. // An extremely important source of a legal congregation of the Orthodox Church established in 1564 under the title "NOMIMON of the Great Church." It remained in official use until the end of the 16th century. There is evidence that the crisis of the 1580s during which the patriarchal church of Pammacaristos was converted to a mosque did not affect this collection of ecclesiastical laws which was continued to be used after the transfer of the Patriarchate March 1592. Consequently this valuable written monument "was lost" from the Secretariat of the Patriarchate. Since then its traces have been lost and "Nomimon" was forgotten. Recently however two parts of this valuable legal synagogue were identified so valuable for the history of the institution and the history of the law: one in Samos island and the other in Paris. The author of the book studied systematically the contents identified the gaps and restored to their original position some pieces of the manuscripts that were moved; this book contains a facsimile reprint of the surviving parts of the "Nomimon".

His Observations At Geneva Begin "The Prudery Of The Women At Geneva Is Incredible And Truly Ridiculous. I Have Observed That They Say Exactly The Same Thing To Every Stranger Presented To Them. To Repeat A Certain Formula Taught Them By Their Nurses. I Would Fain Know Who The Traveler Is That First Asserted There Was Such A Thing As Liberty In Switzerland. At Geneva And Berne There Are Four Hundred Surveillans. If You Offend Them Only By The Manner In Which Your Cravat Is Tied You Immediately Become An Object Of Their Persecution." Further Observations Made The Likelihood Of A Further English Translation Small Indeed: "Nothing Can Equal My Admiration Of The English Legislature Unless It Be The Repulsion I Feel From English Society. They Are The Most Unsocial Of Beings; Perhaps For That Reason The Least Happy. To Be Held In Consideration By An Englishman The Most Perfect Air Of Coldness Must Be Assumed." I Don't See Such Observations In My Michelin Or Lonely Planet Guides Perhaps We Have Evolved Or Perhaps We Are Too Terrified To Speak Out. <br/> <br/> Henry Colburn hardcover
