Papers presented at the Fourteenth International Conference on Patristic Studies held in Oxford 2003 (see also Studia Patristica 39, 40, 41 and 43). The successive sets of Studia Patristica contain papers delivered at the International Conferences on Patristic Studies, which meet for a week once every four years in Oxford; they are held under the aegis of the Theology Faculty of the University. Members of these conferences come from all over the world and most offer papers. These range over the whole field, both East and West, from the second century to a section on the Nachleben of the Fathers. The majority are short papers dealing with some small and manageable point; they raise and sometimes resolve questions about the authenticity of documents, dates of events, and such like, and some unveil new texts. The smaller number of longer papers put such matters into context and indicate wider trends. The whole reflects the state of Patristic scholarship and demonstrates the vigour and popularity of the subject.

Ce volume rassemble une serie d'etudes qui toutes traitent du plus grand ecrivain francais de la periode 1680-1721: Robert Challe."La Continuation du Don Quichotte" ou Challe ose se mesurer a Cervantes, "Les Illustres Francaises", le plus beau roman concertant de la fin du regne de Louis XIV, le "Journal d'un voyage aux Indes orientales", les "Memoires" interrompus en 1716, ou ces "Difficultes sur la religion" que les contemporains attribuaient au jeune Voltaire constituent un ensemble impressionnant tant par son ampleur que par la variete des registres exploites.Que l'oeuvre de Robert Challe soit un creuset dans lequel se sont fondus les aspects les plus originaux d'une epoque incertaine qui voit la fin du regne de Louis le Grand et l'aube des Lumieres, personne n'en doute parmi ceux qui ont pu apprecier ses textes decapants. Ce recueil devrait permettre a d'autres lecteurs de decouvrir cet univers fascinant.Les premieres analyses, examinant "Les Illustres Francaises", permettent d'entrer dans le jeu de la creation litteraire et de voir comment, rivalisant avec Marivaux, Challe s'approprie les procedes de Cervantes et de Moliere pour se creer un style savoureux, tantot allegre, tantot emouvant. Dans le foisonnement d'experimentations romanesques qui lui servent de terreau, le lecteur rencontrera Honore d'Urfe, Subligny, Courtilz de Sandras, Madame de Murat...L'abbe Prevost, Duclos ont apprecie le melange de cruaute, de sadisme, de libertinage dont Challe fait usage, et s'en sont servis a leur maniere.Les analyses portant sur le "Journal de voyage" sont pretextes a de fructueuses confrontations avec les historiens du temps qui toutes font ressortir la forte implication personnelle de Challe dans les evenements dont il rend compte, que ce soient les peripeties de la politique francaise au Siam ou les operations mises en place par les jesuites...Enfin les etudes consacrees aux "Difficultes sur la religion proposees au pere Malebranche" montrent que cet essai constitue quasiment un journal intime temoin de la lente conquete d'une liberte de pensee. L'exploitation de ce texte clandestin par les philosophes des Lumieres insere une experience personnelle dans une strategie destinee a "ecraser l'infame".Le melange detonant de rire, de goguenardise et d'emotion profonde devrait toucher nos contemporains indifferents aux codes d'ecriture surannes mais sensibles a la spontaneite et a la sincerite d'un ecrivain qui n'appreciait rien tant que la "bonne foi".

Text in German. History and Society has been the journal for historical social science for thirty years. On this occasion, current and previous editors discuss the future of social history in an international context. Some contributions take a look at classic topics of social history, others reformulate the foundations of a history of social structures and practices after the "cultural turn" and in view of the challenge posed by a global view of history. A third group deals with the relationship to neighboring disciplines of historical studies, especially political science and economics. Finally, a fourth focus of the volume is on state development and social change in the Federal Republic of Germany.

In Suffering and Sacrifice in the Clinical Encounter, the authors identify the ways in which some patients seek to create what Freud termed a “private religion” and unconsciously substitute sacrificial enactments of scapegoat surrogates to protect them against the pain of separation, mourning, and loss of primary figures of attachment. They investigate the function of sacrifice and its relationship to the breakdown of psychic structure and the development of manic defenses and pathological narcissism. Such treatments are complex, the “reversed roles” of victim and perpetrator central to the sacrificial process when enacted in therapy can trigger feelings of shame, guilt and inadequacy in the therapist. Perverse, vengeful, and sadistic transference distortions are explored to enable the therapist to appreciate the true nature of the patient’s hidden traumatic experience, with the necessity for the working-through of genuine separation and grieving highlighted. Useful methods are detailed to counter the tendency to become overly active and inappropriately involved when working with patients who have deadened their desire to improve. This book is unique in utilising the dynamic concepts of the effects of trauma and sacrifice, the role of the scapegoat, and the distinctions between the experience of pain and the accomplishment of suffering in order to develop a foundational understanding of such patients. It is a must-read for all practising and trainee therapists.

Rock Art Studies: News of the World VI, like the previous editions in the series, covers rock art research and management all over the world over a five-year period, in this case, the years 2015 to 2019 inclusive. The current volume once again shows the wide variety of approaches that have been taken in different parts of the world and reflects the expansion and diversification of perspectives and research questions. One constant has been the impact of new techniques of recording rock art. This is especially evident in the realm of computer enhancement of the frequently faded and weathered rock imagery. As has been the case in past volumes, this collection of papers includes all of the latest discoveries, including in areas hitherto not known to contain rock art. While relatively little has happened in some areas, a great deal has occurred in others. Rock art studies continue to go through a period of intense scientific and technological development, but at the same time – due to the problems of preservation and vandalism – it is crucial to educate local people and the young about the importance of this fragile heritage.

Twenty sites were excavated on the route of a National Grid pipeline across Holderness, East Yorkshire. These included an early Mesolithic flint-working area, near Sproatley. In situ deposits of this age are rare, and the site is a significant addition to understanding of the post-glacial development of the wider region. Later phases of this site included possible Bronze Age round barrows and an Iron Age square barrow. Elsewhere on the pipeline route, diagnostic Mesolithic, Neolithic and Bronze Age flints, as well as Bronze Age pottery, provide evidence of activity in these periods. Iron Age remains were found at all of the excavation sites, fourteen of which had ring gullies, interpreted as evidence for roundhouse structures. The frequency with which these settlements occurred is an indication of the density of population in the later Iron Age and the large assemblage of hand-made pottery provides a rich resource for future study. Activity at several of these sites persisted at least into the second or early third centuries AD, while the largest excavation site, at Burton Constable, was re-occupied in the later third century. However, the pottery from the ring gullies was all hand-made, suggesting that roundhouses had ceased to be used by the later first century AD, when the earliest wheel-thrown wares appear. This has implications for understanding of the Iron Age to Roman transition in the region. Late first- or early second-century artefacts from a site at Scorborough Hill, near Weeton, are of particular interest, their nature strongly suggesting an association with the Roman military. With contributions by: Hugo Anderson-Whymark (flint), Kevin Leahy (metal, glass, worked bone), Terry Manby (earlier prehistoric pottery), Chris Cumberpatch (hand-made pottery), Rob Ixer (petrography), Derek Pitman and Roger Doonan (suface residues: ceramics and slag), Ruth Leary (Roman pottery), Felicity Wild (samian ware), Kay Hartley (mortaria), Jane Young with Peter Didsbury (post-Roman pottery), Ruth Shaffrey (worked stone), Lisa Wastling (fired clay), Jennifer Jones (surface residues: fired clay), Katie Keefe and Malin Holst (human bone), Jennifer Wood (animal bone), Don O’Meara (plant macrofossils), Tudur Burke Davies (pollen) and Matt Law (molluscs).
