Brill The Devotion of Collecting: Dutch Ministers and
Book SynopsisThe history of the Netherlands in the seventeenth century cannot be adequately told without considering ministers’ understanding of print, and how they used print to encourage godliness and the nature of their personal libraries. This study is built upon an examination of 234 auction catalogues of ministerial collections, nearly all that are known to survive, and the transcription of fifty-five of these catalogues. Libraries were possessions of central importance to the ministers who owned them. Knowing the kinds of print with which ministers interacted provides us with valuable insights into the daily life of a minister and the culture of the era. So, what books did these central theological figures own and how did they use them?Table of ContentsAcknowledgements List of Figures and Tables Abbreviations Conventions 1 Ministers and Their Books in the Seventeenth-Century Dutch Republic 1 The Rise of the Book Auction Catalogue in the Netherlands 2 The Dutch Context 3 Available with the Booksellers 4 Sold at Auction 2 That All May Be Instructed 1 Print and Piety 2 The Difficulty of the ‘Reformed’ Republic 3 Vainglorious and Irreverent Books 4 ‘I Must Have the New Tidings’ 5 Printers and the Dissemination of Piety 6 The Book and Pen 7 Creatures of the Book 3 Buyers of Truth 1 Between Opulence and Poverty 2 Dusty Attics 3 The Home of the Muses 4 The Legion of Books 5 Learned Men 6 Dwelling in Sparta 4 Guardians of the Faith 1 The Academy of Academies 2 The More Sound Schoolmen 3 Our Doctors 4 Learning from the Britons 5 Trained in Righteousness 5 Learned Servants 1 Men of Letters 2 The Philosophers 3 Roads of the Sun 4 Amateur Physicians 5 They That Bear Silver 6 Reading the Stars 7 Learned Servants Conclusion: The Ideal Ministerial Library 1 Timeless and Timely Libraries 2 Ministerial Libraries in a Golden Age 3 The Ideal Ministerial Library Appendix: Analysed Ministerial Library Catalogues Bibliography Illustrations Index

Peeters Publishers Catalogue of the Coptic Inscriptions in the Sudan
Book SynopsisFrom the sixth century onwards, the kingdoms of Nubia, half-way between Egypt and Ethiopia, supported a vital Christian culture. Excavations revealed impressive churches and colourful mural paintings. However, written sources for Nubian Christianity are relatively scarce and not always easily accessible. The Sudan National Museum in Khartoum houses an important collection of Christian inscriptions on stone from medieval Nubia. Those written in Coptic are brought together in the present volume, those in Greek in a companion volume. Each text is reproduced, edited, often for the first time, translated and provided with an extensive commentary. Most of the over 120 Coptic pieces are funerary, some dedicatory in character. The presentation is arranged geographically in order to situate the texts as much as possible in their original archaeological context. Fully indexed, this collection of primary sources is an indispensable tool for every student of medieval Nubia and of considerable interest for the study of Coptic epigraphy in general.

Peeters Publishers Catalogue of the Greek Inscriptions in the Sudan
Book SynopsisThe book contains the edition of 123 Greek inscriptions kept in the Sudan National Museum in Khartoum. Two of them were monuments set up by Axumite kings in Meroe City after victorious campaigns carried out against the Meroitic state still before the official conversion of the Kingdom of Axum to Christianity in the middle of the 4th century. The remaining texts, in overwhelming majority epitaphs, are connected to the Nubian Christian culture flourishing between the 1st and the 6th Nile cataract from the 6th until the 14th/15th century. The inscriptions are presented in the geographical order from the north to the south. Each text is reproduced, edited (in many cases for the first time), translated and provided with an extensive commentary. The book opens with an introduction on the language, form and dating of the inscriptions. It is supplemented by ample indices and concordances. The book constitutes an indispensable instrument and material for every student of medieval Nubia. It shall also excite considerable interest among scholars researching Oriental Christianity and Greek epigraphy.

Peeters Publishers Catalogue of the Syriac Manuscripts and Fragments
Book SynopsisDeir al-Surian, the famous Monastery of the Syrians in Egypt, has long been known for its unique collection of Syriac, Coptic, Arabic, and Ethiopian manuscripts. This catalogue provides detailed descriptions of the 48 Syriac manuscripts (many of them composite) and the more than 180 fragments that are preserved in the Monastery today. Ranging in date from the 5th to the 18th century and with a majority of them being earlier than the 10th century, the manuscripts present us with major authors and works of the Syriac literary tradition. They include biblical texts (among them the earliest dated Gospel manuscript in any language), original Syriac compositions, and translations from Greek and (occasionally) Coptic. Several works were previously unattested. Connections with manuscripts from Deir al-Surian that are preserved in European collections (primarily the British Library) are indicated wherever relevant. Colophons and various kinds of notes by scribes, readers, owners, and occasional visitors also receive attention, thus allowing interesting glimpses into the history not only of individual manuscripts, but also of the Monastery and its library. Accompanying the catalogue is an album containing more than 300 pages of images.

Peeters Publishers The Medieval Booklists of the Southern Low
Book SynopsisWith this volume Corpus Catalogorum Belgii comes to an end. It contains the critical edition of all surviving medieval inventories of the library of the Dukes of Burgundy. This was in the fifteenth century one of the most prestigious princely collections in the world, consisting of hundreds of mostly illuminated manuscripts. The hitherto available editions of these inventories were for the most part incomplete or unreliable. In the present book the editors have provided critical editions of the inventories already known, based on all existing archival documents, and of a series of newly discovered ones. The substantial introduction, dealing with the growth and the organization of the collection, the notes giving complete details on the documents and on all persons mentioned in them, and the full indices make this book an indispensable tool for all students of medieval literature (especially French), manuscript illumination and Burgundian culture.

Peeters Publishers Catalogue of the Ottoman Holdings of St John's
Book SynopsisThis is the follow-up volume of the Catalogue du fonds ottoman des archives du monastère de Saint-Jean à Patmos. Les vingt-deux premiers dossiers published in 2011 by Nicolas Vatin, Gilles Veinstein and Elizabeth Zachariadou. Presented here are the dossiers 21-38 which include documents from as early as 1531 and as late as March 1911 (towards the very end of Ottoman rule in the Archipelago). This wide chronological span is coupled by an extensive geographical range: The Ottoman documentation kept in the archives of the monastery of St John the Theologian on Patmos reaches from the coasts of Algiers and Tunisia to the Crimea and the Sea of Asov. It also covers a wide range of subjects (from ‘apostasy’ to ‘violence’), among them maritime trade, seafaring, piracy and shipwreck; fields and field produce; churches and church repair; inheritance issues and the establishment of Christian pious foundations; various forms of tax collecting across the Archipelago; but also evidence of oppression and injustice. Not all the hardship and injustice resulted from Ottoman rule; on the contrary, tensions and rivalries between monastic and lay bodies constituted an important factor throughout, as did disputes between and within local Greek families. The need to look for Ottoman justice and officialdom in far-away Kos (there never was a Muslim judge installed permanently on Patmos) constitutes an administrative ‘abnormality’ which has undoubtedly contributed significantly to the uniqueness of the Patmian experience throughout the centuries of Ottoman rule.

Peeters Publishers Bicentenaire de la Société Asiatique, 1822-2022:
Book SynopsisSous l’aspect rassurant d’un recueil érudit, cet album est un permis de chasse aux trésors. Non pour les perceurs de murailles, mais pour les perceurs de mystères. Nul besoin de forcer les secrets des Pyramides ou des palais de Maharajas! Restons ‘Rive gauche’, où la Société Asiatique, libéralement ouverte, ne cesse d’enrichir sa bibliothèque, marquée par la mémoire de Jeanne-Marie Allier, fille du sinologue Paul Demiéville. Quand elle fut fondée, le 1er avril 1822, Paris était la capitale européenne de l’orientalisme. Jusqu’alors l’Asie était le domaine réservé des missionnaires et des marchands, dont le zèle n’était pas désintéressé. Anquetil-Duperron (1731-1805), traducteur de l’Avesta, fut le premier orientaliste au sens savant du mot. Depuis l’expédition d’Égypte, les orientalistes découvraient un monde encore plus captivant que les utopies des Voyages de Gulliver. À la Société Asiatique affluaient livres, chartes et rouleaux, tablettes d’argile, moulages d’inscriptions lapidaires, papyri, xylographies chinoises, feuilles de latanier couvertes de textes bouddhiques. Plus tard, avec les langues non écrites, arrivèrent des transcriptions sur sacs de ciment, notées à la hâte par les ethnologues. Présents dès 1822, Abel-Rémusat et Champollion affrontaient le même défi: déchiffrer des idéogrammes à l’aide de textes bilingues, sino-mandchou d’un côté, gréco-égyptien de l’autre. La quête des caractères spéciaux nécessaires à l’impression du Journal Asiatique fut un roman d’aventures, où se croisent marchands arméniens partant pour l’Égypte, ambassadeurs du Tsar en Mandchourie, graveurs méritants, et même la générosité du roi de Prusse, donateur des lettres dévanagari. Par l’extension de son champ géographique et disciplinaire, la Société Asiatique reflète la ferveur de milliers d’orientalistes, qui partagent depuis deux siècles le même projet humaniste et universaliste. Chaque livre porte la mémoire d’un savant. L’herbier chinois traduit l’insatiable curiosité du fondateur, le Comte de Lasteyrie. Le manuscrit du Lalita Vistara, est lié aux travaux d’Eugène Burnouf. Les charmantes images chinoises populaires sont un don d’Édouard Chavannes. À l’heure des spécialisations étroites et des cloisonnements excessifs, la présente collection ouvre un espace de réflexion et de citoyenneté universelles. Under the comforting aspect of a lavishly illustrated erudite collection, this album is a treasure hunting license. Not for breaking through walls, but for breaking enigmas. No need to break into the secret corridors of the Pyramids, to enter the mazes of the Maharajas' palaces! We can stay on the 'Left Bank', where the Société Asiatique, open to those who ask, has not ceased, for two centuries, to enrich its library, durably marked by the memory of Jeanne-Marie Allier, daughter of the great sinologist Paul Demiéville. When the Société Asiatique was founded on April 1st 1822, Paris was the European capital of research on the Orient. Until then, the Near East and Asia had been the exclusive domain of missionaries and merchants, whose zeal was not entirely disinterested. Anquetil-Duperron (1731-1805) was the first orientalist in the scholarly sense of the word, that is to say 'a true traveler, loving all men as his brothers, sailing all over the world, above wealth and poverty'. Since the Egyptian expedition, the horizon had opened on the depths of Asia. Orientalists discovered a world even more captivating than the amusing utopias of Gulliver's Travels. Certainly, no Asian people wrote diagonally, like Lilliputians or the English ladies. But how can one not marvel at the variety of media? Books, charters and scrolls, clay tablets, casts of lapidary inscriptions, papyri, Chinese xylographs, and leaves of exotic trees covered with Buddhist texts, all flowed in to the Société Asiatique,. Later, when ethnologists began collecting unwritten languages, they sent their transcriptions, hastily noted down on bags of cement. Both present at the first session of the Société Asiatique, Abel-Rémusat and Champollion faced the same challenge at the opposite ends of Asia: to decipher ideograms with the help of bilingual texts, Sino-Manchu on the one hand, Greco-Egyptian on the other. Printing the Journal Asiatique required special characters. The quest for these new fonts is a kind of adventure novel, in which we meet Armenian merchants leaving for Egypt, Tsar's ambassadors in Manchuria, skilled engravers, and even the generosity of the King of Prussia, donor of the Devanagari letters. The Imprimerie Nationale took over under the Second Empire. The library of the Société Asiatique mirrors the fervor of thousands of Orientalists who have shared the same humanist and universalist project for two centuries. Each work bears the memory of a scholar. The Chinese Herbarium reflects the insatiable curiosity of the founder, Count de Lasteyrie. The Lalita Vistara manuscript is linked to the work of Eugene Burnouf. The charming popular Chinese images are a gift from Edouard Chavannes. 'Truth is in the whole', wrote Hegel. At a time of narrow specialization and excessive compartmentalization, the present collection opens up a space for universal reflection and citizenship.
