The Birth And Growth Of Indo-Anglian Literature And Its Contributions To English Literature, Marie O'Loughlin

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Western civilization has been influenced by Indian thought in two ways - one through the Greeks, and the other through modern English scholarship. The former has affected us but slightly, being the result of oral interchange, rather than of immediate literary borrowing, - thus passing only indirectly into our system. The latter is reacting upon English literature today in a manner and to an extent which seems not to have been fully realized by either the East or the West.

India still remains the western world something of a mystery, a succession of romantic and gorgeous pictures, or a fantastic …

Melanchthon And Luther's Translation Of The New Testament, H. O. Keinath

Concordia Theological Monthly

When Philip Schwartzerd changed his German name to Melanchthon, this act might have been considered symbolic of the linguistic interest which was to be dominant throughout his life: Greek. As a student of Greek he proved to be the ready helper who enlisted much technical knowledge of the language in the service of Luther's translation of the New Testament. True it is, Luther was the translator, but he was a translator who did not hesitate to draw upon reliable information wherever he found it in order to produce an adequate version. Melanchthon therefore became one of the great colaborers of …

The Story Of Joseph In The Light Of Recent Research, P. E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

The most striking proof in support of the view that the development of Hebrew into a literary language from the Canaanite dialect spoken by the Hebrews was effected in an Egyptian environment is that the Joseph and Exodus narratives, in which Israel is shown in direct contact with Egypt, reflect clearly the spirit of an Egyptian environment and display visible traces of Egyptian influence.

The Story Of The German Bible, P. E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

In his thirteenth sermon on the life of Luther, Mathesius remarks: ''In my youth I saw on un-German German Bible, undoubtedly translated from the Latin, which was very dark indeed; for at that time the learned men did not have much regard for the Bible. My father also had a German postil, in which, besides the Gospels of the Sundays, several passages from the Old Testament were explained in postil form, from which I often read to him with great delight." At the same time the father of this pupil of Luther often expressed the wish that he might sec …

The Story Of The German Bible, P. E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

For the student of the Bible and its various translations and versions it is most stimulating to be told by scholars who know the field that, in addition to more than a score of Psalters which have till now been found complete or in parts, and at least a dozen renderings of other parts of Holy Scripture, as we have seen, there is an immense field of study in the history of the German Bible whom possibilities arc not yet exhausted.

The Story Of The German Bible, P. E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

Among the many remarkable books which were produced during the golden age of Latin literature there is none which in point of interest and appeal exceeds the little book of forty-six short chapters written by Tacitus and entitled De Germania (an account of the country of Germany). In this book he gives the general boundaries of the country inhabited by the Germanic tribes; he describes the political and mental characteristics of these strange Northern people, the sources of their wealth, their military equipment and prowess, the influence and sacred character of their women, their gods and their modes of worship, …

Philosophical Mysticism As Epistemological Method, Glenn Negley

Graduate Thesis Collection

The general problem of the definition of mysticism may be approached in either of two ways.  We might assemble the elements of all types and method of mysticism, and, by the use of the critical method, arrive thereby at a description and definition of the mystical experience in its most general sense; or we might develop a restricted, specific definition by ignoring certain aspects of that type of experience which might, in a broad, general sense, be called mystical.

Tertulliani "Apologeticum", M. S. Sommer

Concordia Theological Monthly

Tertullian's Apologeticum is justly renowned. It is renowned because of its author, Tertullian, who because of the diction, style, extent, and time of his writings is recognized generally as the father of Church Latin. There is no doubt that later writers, among them men of such importance as St. Augustine, Ambrose, and Cyprian, were influenced by him. Of Cyprian it is said that be called Tertullian simply the teacher. And yet, important as all the writings of Tertullian are, many of them have now lost their claim to the attention of all except the specialist and the historian. But not …

The New Testament In The Light Of Recent Discoveries, Francis E. Zummach

Bachelors’ Theses

The New Testament! The most important book in the world! With it, Christianity stands; without it, Christianity falls! Ignoring the overwhelming and impregnable proofs by which it was clearly demonstrated that the Gospels are genuine, that the authors are trustworthy and that the documents are complete, a certain class of "critical" scholars sought to impugn the authenticity of this book of books by aiming the shafts of their criticism against its strange style, crooked grammar, unintelligible words, and the late date of the manuscript evidence. Year by year the attacks grew in volume and boldness, until suddenly the critics were …

The So-Called "Christian Interpolations" In Josephus, P. E. Kretzmann

Concordia Theological Monthly

A number of factors have combined to make a short article on the probability of Christian interpolations in Josephus, especially in his Antiquities of the Jews, desirable. For one thing, the number of recent books on Josephus and his works is surprisingly large, a fact which shows that scholars are taking a new interest in this field of history and criticism.

Archeology-The Nemesis, W. A. Maier

Concordia Theological Monthly

The brunt of the assault on the Old Testament is directed not so much against its language or its history as ultimately against its theology. While the Scriptures of the Old Covenant (Ex.17, 14; Deut. 31, 9; etc.) claim to be products of a direct and divine revelation and are thus acknowledged by our Lord Himself and by His apostles (2 Tim. 3, 16), it has become the avowed objective of criticism to remove any distinguishing criteria of the divine and to eliminate the conception of any direct and exclusive revelation on which Israel's religion is based.

Mission San Juan Bautista California: The Causes And Effects Of Its Rise And Decline, John E. Martin

Philosophy Doctoral

The immutable law of Cause and Effect affords an interesting gauge for the study of one of California's renowned missions. To compile all of the available data concerning a particular mission, to examine its buildings and grounds minutely and then to seek the Why and the Wherefore, provides an instructive undertaking.

Mission San Juan Bautista, California, the largest of the mission edifices, is a splendid subject for such a study. Why was it built, what was the purpose of its strange closed-off side aisles, why did it decline, what were the results achieved in its history? These are questions which …

Archeology-The Nemesis, W. A. Maier

Concordia Theological Monthly

The second function of avenging archeology has been the tearing down of that amazing scaffold of theories on which a skeptical criticism has sought to reconstruct the Biblical narratives according to the blue-prints of its tendential theorization.

Archeology-The Nemesis, W. A. Maier

Concordia Theological Monthly

When, at the middle of the last century, the epoch-making excavations in the Mesopotamian Valley lengthened the historical perspective and pushed back the horizon of the ancient Orient, these archeological discoveries were hailed with mixed feelings. An attitude of doubt and suspicion clashed with an exaggerated credulity.
