Book Description
Considered a definitive source for scholars and students, this highly acclaimed series illustrates the impact of Greek and Latin texts on the Middle Ages and Renaissance. In publication since 1960 and now in its eighth volume, the Catalogus Translationum et Commentariorum furnishes concrete evidence of when, where, and how an ancient author was known and appreciated in monastic, university, and humanist circles. Each article presents a historical survey of the influence and circulation of a particular author down to the present, followed by an exhaustive listing and brief description of Latin commentaries before 1600 on each of his works. For Greek authors, a full listing of pre-1600 translations into Latin is also provided. Sources of translations and commentaries include both printed editions and texts available only in medieval and Renaissance manuscripts. In the newest addition to the series, Volume VIII, six authors are treated in separate articles: Damianus, Geminus Rhodius, Hanno, Sallust, Themistius, and Thucydides. This volume is especially notable for its variety. Thucydides and Sallust were major historians and the interest their works generated -- in such diverse figures as Macchiavelli, Thomas More, and Thomas Hobbes -- has continued unabated. Damianus and Geminus Rhodius influenced optics and astronomy. Themistius provided a useful service to later students of Aristotle by paraphrasing Aristotle's treatises on logic, psychology, and natural science. Hanno's account of a voyage around the coast of West Africa has been regarded as a motivating factor behind the explorations of Vasco da Gama and Pedro Alvares Cabral and was cited in controversies involving the Portugueseand Spanish claims to the coasts of Africa and America. A list of addenda and corrigenda to four previously published articles (Columella, Tacitus, Vegetius, Xenophon) concludes the volume.

On Renaissance Commentaries
Author: Marianne Pade
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : de
Pages : 146
Book Description
Die in diesem Buch versammelten sechs Essays befassen sich mit Kommentaren, die im 15. Jahrhundert zu unterschiedlichen Autoren (Sallust, Vergil, Martial, Plinius d. A., Dioscurides und Apuleius) verfasst oder uberarbeitet wurden. Diese Kommentare bieten eine grobe Bandhreite an Stoffen und wissenschaftlichen Auscinandersetzungen. Jeder Essay stellt dabei den cinzalnen Kommentar in den zeitgenossischen Kontext der Wiederentdeckung der antiken Schriftsteller und beschaftigt sich mit einer Frage, die wichtige Auswirkungen auf die Geschichte des humanistischen Unterrichts und der Hermeneutik hat: Gibt es uberhaupt einen Renaissance-Kommentar. Die Autoren verfolgen das Ziel, das fur einen Kommentar der Renaissance Typische (im Gegensatz zu einem Kommentar aus dem Mittelalter) zu finden, d.h. diejenigen inhaltlichen oder methodischen Bestandteile zu erkennen, die einen Kommentar als padagogische oder wissenschaftliche Arbeit der Renaissance auszeichnen.

Catalogus Translationum Et Commentariorum
Author: Greti Dinkova-Bruun
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780888449511
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 416
Book Description
In this volume, the second of the 'Catalogus' in the new format, five full-length articles devoted to Polybius, Diodorus Siculus, Zosimus, Procopius of Caesarea, and the fictitious Dares Phrygius are supplemented by addenda and corrigenda to articles previously published on Valerius Maximus, Petronius Arbiter, Martialis, and Martianus Capella. Contributors combine detailed and accurate information about manuscripts and early printed editions together with quotations of paratextual material and comprehensive overviews of the ways in which these authors were received. In doing so, they provide an essential work for those concerned with ancient historiography and the way in which the authors and their works were remembered.

Being and Some Philosophers
Author: Étienne Gilson
Publisher: PIMS
ISBN: 9780888444158
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
The study of being was one of the main preoccupations of Etienne Gilson's scholarly and intellectual life. Being and Some Philosophers is at once a testament to the persistence of those concerns and an important landmark in the history of the question of being. The book charts the ways in which being is translated across history, from unity in Plato and substance in Aristotle to essence in Avicenna and the act of existence in Aquinas. It examines the vicissitudes of essence and existence in Suarez and Christian Wolff, in Hegel and Kierkegaard, in order to uncover the metaphysical and existential foundations of modern thought. And yet Being and Some Philosophers remains not so much an historical investigation (although it could only have been written by a scholar steeped in the history of philosophy) but, in the words of its author, "a philosophical book, and a dogmatically philosophical one at that." Its passionate vigour has proven, over many years, at once fresh and provocative. Indeed, the appendix to this revised edition contains critiques of the book by two Thomists as well as Gilson's replies to their objections.
