    This oldest of the extant Apocryphal Gospels claims to have been written by James (the Just) in Jerusalem. It was first published in the Latin version of Postellus in 1552. It exists in numerous Greek mss., the best of which is said to be one of the 10th century. The Syriac versions are older, and, with occasional abbreviations, agree fairly with the Greek text, and with one another. The fragment translated by Dr. Wright is supposed to belong to the sixth century; the text on the palimpsest of Mrs. Lewis is referred to the fifth or sixth century. The Gospel in its present form can hardly (notwithstanding Tischendorf) be put earlier than the third century; but the older form lying behind it certainly goes back to the second century. Coincidences are noted between the Gospel and Justin Martyr (A.D. 150) which, in the opinion of good scholars, point to its use by that apologist (cp. Sanday on The Gospels in the Second Century). Origen refers to the Book of James in proof that Joseph had sons by a former wife (in Matt. tom. x. 17); and the connection with the Protevangelium is not disproved by the fact that elsewhere he gives a different account of the death of Zacharias (in Matt. Tract. 25). The contents of the Gospel show it to have been partly based on the narratives of the Nativity in Matthew and Luke. That in its present form it is composite seems evident from chap. xviii., which is put in the first person into the mouth of Joseph, and is extravagant in its style of description. On the ground of this chapter one is tempted to suspect an origin in Essenian-Ebionitic circles. Either in its present or in an earlier shape it formed the basis of the writing afterwards to be mentioned - the Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew, and through it of the later Nativity of Mary. A prominent motive of the composer is obviously to exalt the virginity of Mary. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Wayne Jones.

    Die Epitomae und Epistolae des Virgilius Maro, genannt 'Grammaticus', aus dem 7. Jh. gehören zu den unverständlichsten Texten des lateinischen Mittelalters. Seit der Wiederentdeckung der Schriften durch Angelo Mai vor rund 200 Jahren wird darüber gerätselt, ob das Ganze purer Nonsens, eine verkappte Parodie auf die Schultradition oder ein verschlüsselter Text ist, der unter dem Deckmantel der Komik ernsthafte Inhalte vermitteln soll. Auf den ersten Blick entsprechen jene Traktate in vieler Hinsicht den klassischen Artes des Aelius Donatus, dem grammatischen Standardwerk der Spätantike und des Mittelalters. Bei genauerer Betrachtung enthalten sie jedoch unzählige Kuriositäten, die bei vielen Leserinnen und Lesern für chronisches Naserümpfen gesorgt haben - alternative Latinitäten, fiktive Gelehrte, falsche Zitate, merkwürdige Theorien sowie skurrile Anekdoten über militante Sprachlehrer, die wochenlang über grammatische Feinheiten debattierten. Die Grammatik des Virgilius ist damit nicht nur das merkwürdigste, sondern auch das unterhaltsamste Lehrbuch des Lateinischen.Dieses Buch bietet eine Aufarbeitung der Forschungstradition, eine deutsche Übersetzung und den ersten philologischen Kommentar, der den Text sprachlich und inhaltlich erläutert. In einem separaten Analyseteil wird außerdem eine neue Gesamtinterpretation vorgelegt, welche verschiedene Aspekte der Parodie freilegt, indem sie das Werk in die spätantike und frühmittelalterliche Grammatikographie einordnet. Im Zentrum der Analyse steht dabei die Autorfigur, die als selbsternannter Virgilius redivivus die jahrhundertelange Tradition der Dichterkommentierung auf den Kopf stellt. Als verdrehter Wiedergänger Vergils entwirft er mit dem Instrumentarium des Grammatikers ein sprachliches Paralleluniversum, einen Meta-Kommentar zur grammatischen Tradition, der auf dem schmalen Grat zwischen Lehrbuch und literarischem Text seine Leserinnen und Leser an der Nase herumführt.Inhalt1.

    'Extraordinary. It is about death, but I can think of few books which have such life. It shows us what love is.' Max Porter, author of Grief is the Thing With Feathers and Lanny'There is no one quite like Naja Marie Aidt' Valeria Luiselli'Devastating, angry, challenging, fragmented and filled with the beautiful hope that the love we have for people continues into the world even after they're gone.' Culturefly'Fragmented, poetic, informative and truthful, Aidt faces the greatest loss we can ever know with all the force of great elegy writers like Anne Carson and Denise Riley. Essential.' Polly Clark, author of Larchfield and Tiger_______"I raise my glass to my eldest son. His pregnant wife and daughter are sleeping above us. Outside, the March evening is cold and clear. 'To life!' I say as the glasses clink with a delicate and pleasing sound. My mother says something to the dog. Then the phone rings. We don't answer it. Who could be calling so late on a Saturday evening?"In March 2015, Naja Marie Aidt's 25-year-old son, Carl, died in a tragic accident. When Death Takes Something From You Give It Back is about losing a child. It is about formulating a vocabulary to express the deepest kind of pain. And it's about finding a way to write about a reality invaded by grief, lessened by loss. Faced with the sudden emptiness of language, Naja finds solace in the anguish of Joan Didion, Nick Cave, C.S. Lewis, Mallarmé, Plato and other writers who have suffered the deadening impact of loss. Their torment suffuses with her own as Naja wrestles with words and contests their capacity to speak for the depths of her sorrow. This palimpsest of mourning enables Naja to turn over the pathetic, precious transience of existence and articulates her greatest fear: to forget. The insistent compulsion to reconstruct the harrowing aftermath of Carl's death keeps him painfully present, while fragmented memories, journal entries and poetry inch her closer to piecing Carl's life together. Intensely moving and quietly devastating, this is what is it to be a family, what it is to love and lose, and what it is to treasure life in spite of death's indomitable resolve.

    An Indigenous resistance historiography, poetry that interrogates the colonial violence of the archive







 Whitemud Walking is about the land Matthew Weigel was born on and the institutions that occupy that land. It is about the interrelatedness of his own story with that of the colonial history of Canada, which considers the numbered treaties of the North-West to be historical and completed events. But they are eternal agreements that entail complex reciprocity and obligations. The state and archival institutions work together to sequester documents and knowledge in ways that resonate violently in people's lives, including the dispossession and extinguishment of Indigenous title to land.







Using photos, documents, and recordings that are about or involve his ancestors, but are kept in archives, Weigel examines the consequences of this erasure and sequestration. Memories cling to documents and sometimes this palimpsest can be read, other times the margins must be centered to gain a fuller picture. Whitemud Walking is a genre-bending work of visual and lyric poetry, non-fiction prose, photography, and digital art and design. "Whitemud Walking is so smart and so ceaselessly innovative. It represents for me a fully assured instantiation of the Indigenous literary project: a confrontation of history's terrors head on and an articulation in the present of our beauty and indomitability. Weigel refuses the archive's efforts to flatten Indigenous subjectivity and, in so doing, opens up a kind of boundless space to remember and grieve but also to hope and imagine otherwise. A deeply felt accomplishment." -Billy-Ray Belcourt, author of A History of My Brief Body"Whitemud Walking is a testament to the power of grief and outrage that so much theft has been allowed to bulldoze Indigenous land rights. Matthew James Weigel's passion for research both honours and mourns what has been trampled and lied about. This is a devastating read but one to learn from. Mahsi cho, Matthew. Your grief is our call to action to learn our own histories and build upon our own Indigenous testimonies of what really happened and when and who was there to witness it. Mahsi cho." -Richard Van Camp, Tlicho Dene author of The Lesser Blessed and Moccasin Square Gardens"Whitemud Walking is a textual ecology, that through archival troubling, sampling, and reframing, allows the material, human, truly cellular historicity of treaty to enter as a living presence in our contemporary moment. Weigel writes, 'Here treaty means reciprocity and obligation. Here, treaty lasts forever'. This book is not the document you may hold in your hands but the shift in consciousness it foments within you. It is a gift." -Liz Howard, author of Infinite Citizen of the Shaking Tent"Echoing the caw and grackle of magpies, Matthew James Weigel's Whitemud Walking lives the sound of Treaty 6. Voices whisper sanctuary in creekbeds, papers rustle precedence in archives; there's a buzz in your ear, a catch in your throat - listen." -Derek Beaulieu, Banff Poet Laureate
