Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 305 p.: Ill. Ein sehr gutes und sauberes Exemplar/ A very good and clean copy. - John K. Hale, born in London, has degrees in Classics from Christ Church Oxford and in English from Edinburgh (Ph.D.) and Otago (Litt.D.). His books include The Shakespeare of the Comedies (1996), Milton's Languages: The Impact of Multilingualism on Style (1997), and John Milton: Latin Writings (1998). Besides numerous essays on Milton for collections and journals, he has published on Aristotle, Spenser, Herbert, Bentley, Austen, and Hopkins. Milton's Cambridge Latin: Performing in the Genres 1625-1632 follows Milton as a student, performing aloud in each of the Latin genres required or voluntary by which Cambridge defined itself in his time there. By taking readers inside his Latin scripts, this study shows his emerging personality, different from orthodox accounts. He seeks reputation, he is outgoing and politically alert, and where appropriate he is cheeky and bawdy. Methods used in this book include those of Latin scholarship, history, and anthropology. All the Latin is given in its original and in translation. A special feature is the first ever complete text and edition of Milton's showy parody of Cambridge graduations, by which he presented his college's freshmen at their induction-rite. For this reason in particular, the work is needed by all university libraries and Milton scholars. CONTENT: PART ONE: Milton and the University Exercises Disputations Milton's Philosophic Verses and the Cambridge Act Verses Declamations Milton's Last Declamation, Prolusion VII: (In Sacrario habita pro Arte. Oratio.Beatiores reddit Homines Ars quam Ignorantia.) The Cambridge Exercises and the Defence of the English People PART TWO: Voluntaries Praising Dead Worthies, 1626 The University Anthologies In Quintum Novembris and the other Gunpowder Poems PART THREE: For the College Community Milton Plays the Fool: Prolusion VI and "At a Vacation Exercise" Further Perspectives PART FOUR: Milton's Salting (editio princeps) Text and Translation Milton's Salting: Text History and Problems of the Texts.

First Edition
Condition: Gut. [1. Auflage]. 260 Seiten ; 24 cm, 704 g. Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - "Performing Religion" investigates the relationship between texts, actors, and contexts in the study of Islam. Research in Islamic Studies to date has taken texts primarily as a medium of information. This volume emphasizes the material quality of texts, both written and oral. It focuses on the sound and rhythm of their performance, on nonverbal elements, and practices of framing and embedding. "Performing Religion" also looks at the interpretation of religious practices not based on lengthy textual foundations but which nevertheless constitute an important part of believers' lives. The assembled case studies encompass contemporary as well as historic perspectives and include examples from Andalusia, Egypt, Italy, Greater Syria, Turkey, Central Asia, Yemen, Iran, and India. Part I explores objects, actions, and notions in the context of the acquisition of blessing ("baraka"). Part II asks how believers use, alter, and publically enact texts in ritual settings and what kinds of performance are inscribed into the text. Part III analyses the negotiation of meanings, aesthetics, and identity which occurs in new and often transcultural contexts. Rather than viewing texts as a repository of ideas, the present volume accentuates their ritual functions and the aesthetic experiences they provide. - Content: Ines Weinrich: Introduction.
