Adelard of Bath, Conversations with His Nephew
Author: Adelard (of Bath)
language: la
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
Release Date: 1998-12-10
Adelard of Bath was one of the most colourful personalities of the Middle Ages. He travelled to the Crusader kingdoms, to Sicily and south Italy, and translated texts on astronomy, astrology and magic from Arabic into Latin. He acquired a lasting reputation as a pioneering mathematician, and he was a gifted teacher. He addressed one of these works, on cosmology and the astrolabe, to the future King Henry II, and it is in the context of the education of the nobility that the three works edited in this book are to be viewed. Adelard meant them to be both entertaining and instructive. They deal with all kinds of topics, from the nature of the soul to the cause of earthquakes, from the effects of music to how to train a hawk. A preface provides the results of research on Adelard's life and work.
The Homilies of the Emperor Leo VI
This monograph on the Homilies of the Byzantine emperor Leo VI (886-912) provides the first extensive analysis of a neglected corpus of secular and ecclesiastical speeches, and sheds new light on both the fascinating figure of the author and the development of Byzantine homiletics.
The Bible as Book
The scope of this work begins with an examination of the methodology of the scribes who produced the Dead Sea Scrolls. It concludes with new evidence for the propagation of the Scriptures some 15 centuries later, at the dawn of the age of printing. Co-published with The British Library.
