The 'Institutiones humanarum litterarum' - that is, the second book of Cassiodorus? masterpiece, devoted to secular learning - have come to us in three different textual forms: the ?authentic? recension ? (Omega), corresponding to Cassiodorus? final wishes, and two subsequent recensions, named ? (Phi) and ? (Delta). Here, later interpolations were added starting from an earlier authorial draft, providing modern readers with valuable information both about Cassiodorus? progressive revisions and about the early fortune of his work.00This volume provides a full commentary to the first critical edition of interpolated recensions ?? Phi Delta (CC SL 99). In doing so, it conveys a full picture of the complex history of the 'Institutiones saeculares', from their first appearance in the monastery of Vivarium to the Carolingian Renaissance, when they knew their greatest success and diffusion.

"Interrogé par un groupe d'amis sur la nature et les pouvoirs de l'âme, Cassiodore (v. 490 - v. 587), qui fut un temps haut fonctionnaire palatin au service du roi ostrogoth Théodoric le Grand et de ses successeurs, rédigea De l'âme vers 538. Récemment converti, il prend parti sur la question de l'âme, un des lieux de controverse entre philosophie païenne et réflexion chrétienne. En dix-huit chapitres se concluant par une prière, il affirme ainsi sa foi neuve tout en réassumant sa culture classique. Il s'attache à faire apparaître l'âme comme l'instrument et le milieu qui permettent à l'homme d'abord de parvenir à sa propre connaissance et à celle du monde, révélateurs l'un et l'autre de la puissance et de la bonté de Dieu, puis de se préparer à atteindre la condition béatifi que. À partir d'emprunts aussi bien sacrés que profanes, auxquels les citations scripturaires servent de ciment, Cassiodore s'inscrit dans la tradition latine des traités sur l'âme initiée par Tertullien, et compose une oeuvre appelée à connaître une immense postérité."--

Here, later interpolations were added starting from an earlier authorial draft, providing modern readers with valuable information about Cassiodorus' progressive revisions and updates. Subsequent additions are also evidence of the early fortune of the 'Institutiones', showing which texts were actively read and studied from the 6th to the 9th centuries. Following Roger Mynors' and Pierre Courcelle's fundamental intuitions, Ilaria Morresi provides the first complete critical edition of the Phi Delta corpora, based on the systematic study of the manuscript tradition. Much attention is paid to the many diagrams included both within the 'Institutiones saeculares' and the interpolations, which are clues to the great importance of images for Early Mediaeval teaching on Trivium and Quadrivium."--

"The Apocalypse or Book of Revelation is one of the most frequently discussed books of the biblical canon and arguably one of the most difficult to interpret. This volume contains three texts as examples of late ancient Christian interpretation of its intriguing visions. It also includes a comprehensive introduction to each text by its respective translator. 'Brief explanations of the Apocalypse' by Cassiodorus (c. 580), translated by Francis X. Gumerlock from Latin and published in English for the first time in this volume, served as an introduction to the Book of Revelation for Cassiodorus's students at the Vivarium, a monastery in southern Italy. Cassiodorus divided the Apocalypse into 33 sections, corresponding to the age of Jesus at his Passion, and expressed his belief that John's visions were revelations of the end of the world, including the Second Coming of Christ for judgment, the defeat of the Antichrist, the general resurrection, and the arrival of the heavenly Kingdom. 'Testimonies of Gregory the Great on the Apocalypse,' translated from Latin by Mark DelCogliano and also published here for the first time in English, is a collection of 55 excerpts on the Apocalypse from the writings of St. Gregory the Great (d. 604) compiled by an anonymous author. Drawn mainly from Gregory's 'Moralia,' but also from his 'Book on pastoral care' and homilies, the excerpts, which are arranged from Revelation 1.4 to 22.17, illustrate Gregory's grammatical exegesis of the Apocalypse, his interpretation of various figures in the Apocalypse, and his attempt to reconcile certain passages in the Apocalypse with seemingly contradictory texts from other parts of Scripture. The anonymous 'Greek scholia on the Apocalypse' contains 39 exegetical notes on chapters 1-14 of the Apocalypse, which reveal influences of Origen and Didymus the Blind, among others. The notes provide 'spiritual' interpretations of the various passages and give attention to the interpretation of certain words that appear in the Book of Revelation. This new translation from the Greek by T.C. Schmidt utilizes all the Greek editions. Furthermore, its introductory matter contains updates on the 'Scholia' from the latest scholarship and compares each 'scholion' with interpretations found in various patristic authors, mainly of Alexandrian heritage."-- "This book contains translations of three ancient texts. The first is an explanation of the New Testament Book of Revelation (the Apocalypse) written by the sixth-century (CE) Christian scholar and monastic founder Cassiodorus. The second is a compilation of excerpts from the writings of St. Gregory the Great (died in 604 CE) on the Apocalypse. The original texts of both Cassiodorus and St. Gregory the Great are in Latin. The third text is a compilation of brief excerpts in ancient Greek from ancient writers who can be only tentatively identified on stylistic grounds. The identity of the compiler, too, is unknown. The manuscript of this third text was first discovered in 1911 in northern Greece."--
