The essays collected in Modern Greek Literature represent the work of young scholars as they expand the range of approaches to modern Greek literature. The contributors vary in their focus from comparative studies to the study of religion or the literature of diaspora. The theoretical questions that the essays raise address both classic and contemporary debates, from genre explorations to the relationship between literature and national identity. Each contribution to this volume represents a fresh look at Greek literature and opens a distinct pathway for further research and considera

When she died in 2016, Dr Jennifer O’Reilly left behind a body of published and unpublished work in three areas of medieval studies: the iconography of the Gospel Books produced in early medieval Ireland and Anglo-Saxon England; the writings of Bede and his older Irish contemporary, Adomnán of Iona; and the early lives of Thomas Becket. In these three areas she explored the connections between historical texts, artistic images and biblical exegesis. This volume brings together nine studies of the Insular Gospel Books. One of them, on the iconography of the St Gall Gospels (Essay 9), was left completed, but unpublished, on the author’s death. It appears here for the first time. The remaining studies, published between 1987 and 2013, examine certain themes and motifs that inform the Gospel Books: their implicit Christology, their harmonisation of the four Gospel accounts, the depiction of Christ crucified, and the portrayal of St John the Evangelist. Two of the Books, the Durham Gospels and the Gospels of Mael Brigte, receive particular attention.

When she died in 2016, Dr Jennifer O’Reilly left behind a body of published and unpublished work in three areas of medieval studies: the iconography of the Gospel Books produced in early medieval Ireland and Anglo-Saxon England; the writings of Bede and his older Irish contemporary, Adomnán of Iona; and the early lives of Thomas Becket. In these three areas she explored the connections between historical texts, artistic images and biblical exegesis. This volume brings together seventeen essays, published between 1984 and 2013, on the interplay of texts and images in medieval art. Most focus on the manuscript art of early medieval Ireland and England. The first section includes four studies of the Codex Amiatinus, produced in Northumbria in the monastic community of Bede. The second section contains seven essays on the iconography and text of the Book of Kells. In the third section there are five studies of Anglo-Saxon Art, examined in the context of the Benedictine Reform. A concluding essay, on the medieval iconography of the two trees in Eden, traces the development of a motif from Late Antiquity to the end of the Middle Ages.

En juillet 2002, les meilleurs spécialistes mondiaux de Bède le Vénérable (c. 670-735) se sont retrouvés à Lille et à Amiens pour dresser un bilan des études relatives à l'oeuvre et à la postérité du grand écolâtre anglo-saxon, et pour ouvrir sur elles de nouvelles perspectives de recherches. Venus de Grande-Bretagne, d'Irlande, du Canada, des États-Unis, du Japon, d'Italie, d'Allemagne, de Belgique et de France, ils ont passé trois jours à exposer leurs travaux, à écouter, à échanger, dans une athmosphère à la fois studieuse et confraternelle. Les organisateurs du colloque sont heureux de publier aujourd'hui les principaux résultats de ces fructueuses journées. Presque toutes les communications qui y ont été faites sont ici réunies, augmentées de quelques contributions originales que leurs auteurs n'avaient pu présenter en juillet 2002. Les unes et les autres ont été regroupées sous cinq titres dans lesquels on retrouvera, à quelques nuances près, le découpage initial du projet : 1. Bède et ses sources ; 2. Bède, l'exégète ; 3. Un historien en son milieu ; 4. La postérité de Bède ; 5. Les traductions de Bède. De cette harmonieuse polyphonie se dégage l'image d'un érudit qui, bien loin de se limiter à celle de l'ascète coupé du monde, rigoureux, voire rigoriste, qui a longtemps été mise en avant, montre un homme engagé, souvent indulgent à l'égard de mouvements ou de tendances ecclésiales peu orthodoxes, et toujours soucieux de réformer l'Église et la société de l'Angleterre de son temps. Pour y parvenir, il est allé puiser ses arguments dans des traditions testamentaires, patristiques et historiographiques dans lesquelles il a opéré un choix souvent original, et qui expliquent aussi bien le caractère unique que la portée universelle de son oeuvre.
