Book Description
Excerpt from Allerlei, 1898, Vol. 7 AS regards the merit of the Allerlei for 1897, a certain modesty, all our own, prevents our expressing an opinion. The bear remarked to its offspring one day: You are a handsome cub, whereupon the cub became straightway inflated with pride and called everybody's attention to him self, but only to have it discovered that there was really nothing handsome about him, - which is a fable, but not according to zesop, the moral whereof is that it is a good thing not to be a handsome bear-cub, nor yet a vain Allerlei.

Beyond Bach
Author: Andrew Talle
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 0252099346
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 339
Book Description
Reverence for J. S. Bach's music and its towering presence in our cultural memory have long affected how people hear his works. In his own time, however, Bach stood as just another figure among a number of composers, many of them more popular with the music-loving public. Eschewing the great composer style of music history, Andrew Talle takes us on a journey that looks at how ordinary people made music in Bach's Germany. Talle focuses in particular on the culture of keyboard playing as lived in public and private. As he ranges through a wealth of documents, instruments, diaries, account ledgers, and works of art, Talle brings a fascinating cast of characters to life. These individuals--amateur and professional performers, patrons, instrument builders, and listeners--inhabited a lost world, and Talle's deft expertise teases out the diverse roles music played in their lives and in their relationships with one another. At the same time, his nuanced re-creation of keyboard playing's social milieu illuminates the era's reception of Bach's immortal works.

New Testament Conjectural Emendation in the Nineteenth Century: Jan Hendrik Holwerda as a Pioneer of Method
Author: Bart L.F. Kamphuis
Publisher: BRILL
ISBN: 9004365567
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
In New Testament Conjectural Emendation in the Nineteenth Century Bart L.F. Kamphuis investigates the life and work of Jan Hendrik Holwerda (1805-1886), who should be seen as the father of the Dutch Movement of Conjectural Criticism. Through a close study of his correspondence, Kamphuis reconstructs Holwerda’s remarkable scholarly biography. He then positions his text-critical theory against the views of Lachmann, Tischendorf and Tregelles. Finally, Holwerda’s corpus of New Testament conjectures is analysed by means of a newly proposed classification, while specific conjectures are discussed in the context of the history of scholarship on the passages concerned. This study not only significantly contributes to our understanding of the history of New Testament textual criticism, but also shows that several of Holwerda’s conjectures have lasting relevance.

Koreri Messianic Movements in the Biak-Numfor Culture Area
Author: Freerk Ch. Kamma
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9401507422
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 347
Book Description
This study developed out of the personal experience of daily life that I and my family had in the years 1932-1942 among the Biak speaking people of the Radja Ampat area (Sorong), West New Guinea. Our family had become integrated into the community as far as possible, and we used the Biak language every day. Three of the movements described in this book took place in that area, so that I was able to study them under the favorable conditions of direct participation and observation. The first edition of the book in 1954 (in Dutch) was the writer's doctoral thesis (Ph. D.), written under the guidance of the late Professor J. P. B. de Josselin de Jong. I am very grateful to the Royal Institute of Linguistics and Anthro pology, Leiden, for publishing the revised English edition in its Translation Series. The Biak material deserves more readers than the Dutch edition was able to reach.
