Extractions: About CALLS The Centre for Australian Language and Literature Studies (CALLS) was established in 1989 to promote the research and teaching of Australian Language and Literature, and to encourage Australian writing. In 1998, it was expanded to encompass all the disciplines that come under the heading of Australian Studies, and its name changed to CALLS: The Centre for Australian Studies, UNE. The Centre is located in the Faculty of Arts at the University of New England. The focus of the Centre's activities is regional, national and international. Two regional conferences and a symposium have been held so far - at Kendall High School (1989) to celebrate the work of Henry Kendall, and at Gulgong (1991) to concentrate attention on the writings of Louisa and Henry Lawson. Important publications have resulted from these two conferences. A symposium, The Heritage Maze, was held in 1999, and another is planned for later this year. These symposia reflect the expanded CALLS, and the range of disciplines involved in Australian Studies.
Extractions: Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... S > Syriac Language and Literature A B C D ... CICDC - Home of the Catholic Lifetime Reading Plan Syriac is the important branch of the group of Semitic languages known as Aramaic. In the time of Alexander the Great, Aramaic was the official language of all the nations from Asia Minor to Persia, from Armenia to Arabian Peninsula. It was divided into two dialects: the western, used in Palestine and Syria by the Jews, Palmyrans, and Nabateans; the eastern, spoken in Babylonia by the Jews, Mandeans, Manichaens, and the people of Upper Mesopotamia. The Syriac language, as we know it from its literature, did not spring from the dialect spoken in Syria, but from the eastern Mesopotamian dialect. When the weakened Seleucides ceased to defend the Euphrates, small independent principalities were formed in that region. The most famous was the little Kingdom of Edessa whose capital Osrhoene was the religious centre of the country. This city also became an intellectual centre, and even then the language of its people attained great perfection. A little later under the influence of Christianity it developed considerably, and eventually became the liturgical and literary language of all the Churches from the shores of the Mediterranean to the centre of Persia. The suppleness and flexibility of this dialect and its loose and variable syntax readily lent itself to the most different constructions, and offered to

Il cavallino era dipinto sulla carlinga del caccia di Francesco Baracca, l'eroico aviatore caduto sul Montello, l'asso degli assi della prima guerra mondiale. Quando vinsi nel '23 il primo circuito del Savio, che si correva a Ravenna, conobbi il conteee Enrico Baracca, padre dell'eroe; da quell'incontro nacque il successivo, con la madre, contessa Paolina. Fu essa a dirmi, un giorno: « Ferrari, metta sulle sue macchine il cavallino rampante del mio figlio. Le porte-ra fortuna » . Conservo ancora la fotografia di Baracca, con la dedica dei genitori, in cui mi affidano l'emblema. Il cavallino era ed è rimasto nero; io aggiunsi il fondo giallo canarino che è il colore de Modena".

CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Latin Literature In Christianity (Sixth To Twentieth Cent During the Middle Ages the socalled church Latin was to a great extent the language of poetry, and it was only on the advent of the Renaissance that classical Latin revived and flourished in the writings of the neo-Latinists as it does even today though to a more modest extent. http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/09026a.htm
Extractions: Home Encyclopedia Summa Fathers ... L > Latin Literature in Christianity (Sixth to Twentieth Century) A B C D ... CICDC - Home of the Catholic Lifetime Reading Plan During the Middle Ages the so-called church Latin was to a great extent the language of poetry, and it was only on the advent of the Renaissance that classical Latin revived and flourished in the writings of the neo-Latinists as it does even today though to a more modest extent. To present to the reader an account of Latin poetry in a manner at once methodical and clear is not an easy task; a strict adherence to chronology interferes with clearness of treatment, and an arrangement according to the different kinds of poetry would demand a repeated handling of some of the poets. However, the latter method is preferable because it enables us to trace the historical development of this literature. A. The Latin Drama Both in its inception and its subsequent development Latin dramatic poetry displays a peculiar character. "In no domain of literature", says W. Creizenach in the opening sentence of his well-known work on the history of the drama "do the Middle Ages show so complete a suspension of the tradition of classical antiquity as in the drama." Terence was indeed read and taught in the schools of the
