Instead, it should demonstrate your understanding of the reading on its own terms , in the medieval context what it meant to its original author and audience (whether or not you agree is irrelevant to this assignment). 2) The paper you will write in this class is also not a research paper (the research tool exercises which you complete for this class have no connection to this writing assignment). DO NOT CITE ANY SECONDARY SOURCES IN EITHER THE INTRODUCTORY PARAGRAPH EXERCISE OR IN YOUR FINAL EXPANDED PAPER cite only the primary text(s) you are analyzing (the medieval work, or in the case of topic #5 , the medieval work and its classical source). 3) The paper which you will write in this class is an EXERCISE, designed to help you practice certain analytic writing skills. It's not the place to try to dazzle me with something new and original. It's hard enough (and perfectly legitimate) simply to demonstrate your grasp of an interpretation presented in class. Concentrate on constructing a strong logical argument based upon close reading (analysis of specific passages in the text). Your paper should demonstrate your ability to
Using Technology To Teach Medieval Texts The medieval manuscript served several purposes to guide the Christian Search find articles containing specific words, authors, subjects or titles. http://www.unc.edu/student/orgs/cams/techtoteach/cdroms.htm
Extractions: CD-ROM Resources History Literature Reference Religion A CD-ROM has the potential to offer a pre-packaged multimedia presentation of the kinds of material you might cover in your classes. It is not unreasonable to think that some textbooks may eventually be offered primarily in CD-ROM format. Currently many publishers of introductory grammars offer CD-ROM supplements to their textbooks, and it's hard to believe that literature supplements can be far behind. CD-ROMs are very efficient in the way that they put so much information at your fingertips in a very portable format. If your students have laptops, or work in computer-assisted classrooms, they may well prefer a CD to a heavy tome. For the time being, however, you may find that your students only have access to CD-ROM resources through your institution's library. Using them in such instances would require students to complete tasks on their own outside of class and would involve making certain that students did not all travel to the library to use the same resource at the same time. In such cases, you might look for CD-ROMs that would be useful as research tools (as, for example, CETEDOC and the OED) rather than as primary texts. Each CD-ROM has its own unique attributes. The number of kinds of CD-ROMs that exist is perhaps almost as large as the number of kinds of printed texts that are available. Therefore, you'll have to evaluate each CD-ROM on your own to figure out how best it might work into your syllabus.
Jewish Names In The World Of Medieval Islam In looking at medieval Jewish names one would expect to find a large number possible to do specific statistical work on these names but classical Hebrew http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/yehoshua/jews_in_cairo/
Extractions: R. Huna stated in the name of Bar Kappara: Israel was redeemed from Egypt on account of four things, vis. because they did not change their names, they did not change their language, they did not go tale-bearing, and none of them was found to have been immoral. Mishnah Rabbah: Leviticus 32:5 Names and naming patterns provide an unique view into the private lives of a community. Much can be learned by a community by the types of names that people give their children and live by. The Jews of the medieval Arab world were very much a part of the Arabic literary tradition and were giving their children names that are drawn from that tradition as well as the Jewish tradition. The Jews of this time period were apparently quite fluent in Arabic and were speaking it in their homes and shops. Some of the great Jewish literature of this period including works by the Rambam and Yahuda haLevi were written in Arabic. This paper will attempt to analyze the form and function of the names of Jews in the medieval Islamic world and compare those naming practices to their Muslim neighbors. It will include an analysis of the elements of personal names, bynames, family names, and the grammar of these names.

Extractions: at the Duke University Libraries This subject guide is an introduction to the resources the Duke Libraries hold in Classical Studies. It emphasizes two related and overlapping areas. The first is reference books that may be consulted for thumbnail sketches of a topic in Classics, fact- and date-checking, and orientations to a research topic that is new to you. For these tasks, dictionaries encyclopedias , and atlases will probably be of most use. The second is introductory sources for beginning larger-scale research projects on Classical topics. Bibliographies , on-line and in print, are emphasized, as are more detailed sources for tracking down obscure references to minor historical personages, places, works of art, literary characters, etc. Classical Studies is very much an international discipline. This guide has been written with a bias towards sources in English, but includes many valuable resources in other modern European languages, in addition to Classical texts which will be in ancient Greek or Latin. Classical Studies is also a discipline with a long history. While many of the references below have been published recently, some date back to the nineteenth century. It can be well worth the effort to look carefully at older scholarship; for some topics, it is essential. Using this Guide Resources listed below are organized into loose categories. A series of general references for all of Classical Studies is followed by more specific resources for specialized areas such as history, literature, and art and archaeology.

A Genealogy Of Morals The preeminence of the cardinal virtues in medieval moral consciousness presents a Do humanist authors seek inspiration from ancient, notably classical http://www.let.ru.nl/~I.Bejczy/Genealogy.html
Extractions: General considerations The underlying idea of the programme is that Western moral consciousness took shape in the Middle Ages on the basis of ancient traditions, in a process of interaction between religious and profane values. Where both ethical patterns intermingled, norms of general validity have originated which, in rudimentary shape at least, have remained influential up to the present. In the interaction of religious and profane values, the cardinal virtues ( prudentia iustitia fortitudo temperantia ; first formulated by Plato, Politeia 427a sq., and also found in the Old Testament at Sap. 8:7 and 4 Macc 1:18) have played a crucial role. First, the cardinal virtues have been understood to comprise, even in the Christian view, the whole range of human morality in the proper sense: together, they determine the way humans behave in this world, the other moral virtues being derived from, or at least associated with, these four primary concepts. To be sure, the theological virtues ( fides spes caritas ) rank higher in the Christian conception, but these pertain to the celestial destination of human beings and thus are related to the field of spirituality rather than morality (although
