This book prepares the way for a new critical edition of the hexaplaric fragments of III Kgdms, which is now possible due to the results of the present study. Ultimately, this material will allow us to learn more about the interactions between Jews and Christians in the Graeco-Roman and Late Antique periods, their understandings of the nature of Scripture, and the methods they used to make the Divine Word understandable.

In the decades after its invention in 1839, photography was inextricably linked to the Middle East. Introduced as a crucial tool for Egyptologists and Orientalists who needed to document their archaeological findings, the photograph was easier and faster to produce in intense Middle Eastern light—making the region one of the original sites for the practice of photography. A pioneering study of this intertwined history, Camera Orientalis traces the Middle East’s influences on photography’s evolution, as well as photography’s effect on Europe’s view of “the Orient.” Considering a range of Western and Middle Eastern archival material from the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Ali Behdad offers a rich account of how photography transformed Europe’s distinctly Orientalist vision into what seemed objective fact, a transformation that proved central to the project of European colonialism. At the same time, Orientalism was useful for photographers from both regions, as it gave them a set of conventions by which to frame exotic Middle Eastern cultures for Western audiences. Behdad also shows how Middle Eastern audiences embraced photography as a way to foreground status and patriarchal values while also exoticizing other social classes. An important examination of previously overlooked European and Middle Eastern photographers and studios, Camera Orientalis demonstrates that, far from being a one-sided European development, Orientalist photography was the product of rich cultural contact between the East and the West.

Von den sieben Regionen Mittelgriechenlands, die der Corpusband IG IX 1 in Neubearbeitung umfasst, erscheint nach Ätolien (1932), Akarnanien (1957), Westlokris (1968) und den Ionischen Inseln (2001) der fünfte Faszikel mit den Inschriften von Ostlokris. Neben den Grabinschriften und den Inschriften auf Keramik, die den Hauptteil des Corpus bilden, sind die Dekrete der Stadt Opus und der Brief des Kaisers Hadrian an die Stadt Naryka sowie für die Geschichte des Alphabets und für die Onomastik die archaischen Inschriften von besonderem Interesse. Den einzelnen Städten sind die antiken Belege für Namen und Ethnikon vorangestellt. Am Beginn des Bandes sind alle antiken Zeugnisse zu Ostlokris und seiner Bevölkerung aus der Zeit vom 8. Jh. v.Chr. bis zum 6. Jh. n.Chr. gesammelt. Der Band wird durch ausführliche Indices erschlossen. Erstmals sind alle aus Ostlokris erhaltenen Inschriften abgebildet.

The promise of magic has always commanded the human imagination, but the story of industrial modernity is usually seen as a process of disenchantment. Drawing on the writings and performances of the so-called 'Golden Age Magicians' from the turn of the twentieth century, Chris Goto-Jones unveils the ways in which European and North American encounters with (and representations of) Asia - the fabled Mystic East - worked to re-enchant experiences of the modern world. Beginning with a reconceptualization of the meaning of 'modern magic' itself - moving beyond conventional categories of 'real' and 'fake' magic - Goto-Jones' acclaimed book guides us on a magical mystery tour around India, China, and Japan, showing us levitations and decapitations, magic duels and bullet catches, goldfish bowls and paper butterflies. In the end, this mesmerizing book reveals Orientalism as a kind of magic in itself, casting a spell over Western culture that leaves it transformed, even today.

Neuware - Der Band IG XV umfasst die griechischen Inschriften der Insel Zypern, deren Zahl etwa auf 5.000 geschätzt wird. Ein erster Teil umfasst die Inschriften, die im sog. Kyprischen Syllabar geschrieben sind; dessen erster Faszikel (IG XV 1, 1) mit den Inschriften von Amathous, Kourion und Marion ist Anfang 2020 erschienen. Der vorliegende erste Faszikel des zweiten Teiles (IG XV 2, 1), der die Inschriften im griechischen Alphabet und die wenigen lateinischen umfasst, enthält Inschriften aus dem Ostteil von Zypern: den antiken Poleis Kition, Golgoi, Tremithus, Idalion, Tamassos und Ledra, sowie die Inschriften auf den mehr als dreihundert Tongefäßen, die im sog. Nymphaeum auf dem Hügel Kafizin gefunden worden sind. Den Hauptteil bilden Grabinschriften auf Kalksteinsäulen; daneben finden sich Aktenstücke der ptolemäischen Verwaltung, Ehren- und Weihinschriften und christliche Texte. Alle Inschriften wurden, soweit noch vorhanden, neu aufgenommen und - zum Teil erstmals - in Foto und Abklatsch dokumentiert. Ausgewertet wurden ferner die Tagebücher und epigraphischen Archive von Ludwig Ross, Paul Schröder, Max Ohnefasch-Richter, Richard Meister, Justus Siegismund und Ino Nicolaou. Die 915 Inschriften werden durch Indices umfassend erschlossen. Zu den einzelnen Poleis sind die historischen Zeugnisse vollständig gesammelt. Der zweite Faszikel des Corpus der zyprischen Alphabetinschriften (IG XV 2, 2) wird die Inschriften von Amathous und Kourion umfassen.

The decision to translate these early monastic rules was made at the first 1979-80 meeting of the Medieval Group at Saint John's University during the sesquimillennial celebration of the birth of Saint Benedict of Nursia. It was felt that making these rules available in English could be valuable for a general , nonspecialist audience wishing to become familiar with the tradition that produced the rule of St. Benedict. These translations are the result of that resolution.

The biblical scholar, historian, and Jewish thinker Yehezkel Kaufmann (1889-1963) is best known for two magisterial works: a two-volume interpretation of Jewish history and a four-volume study of biblical religion. Toledot in particular is the most monumental achievement of modern Jewish biblical scholarship. No other figure, not even Martin Buber, has had such a profound influence on the work of Jewish scholars of the Bible. The volume provides a comprehensive and multi-faceted account of Kaufmann's work, through which Anglophone readers, students and scholars alike, can explore the hitherto unrecognized significance and profundity of Kaufmann's legacy.
