Medieval History
For those who may find it useful, I've scanned and placed online
Weiskotten's English translation (1919) of Possidius' Life of St.
Augustine. It's here:
http://www.tertullian.org/fathers/possidius_life_of_augustine_02_text.ht
m
Possidius was a friend of Augustine's, and his biography remains the
principal source for the life of the saint.
Other English translations of the Fathers can be found in the
collection:
http://www.tertullian.org/fathers
I also do a CDROM of the collection; if people would like to support
the site, you can purchase it from here:
http://www.tertullian.org/fathers/all_the_fathers_on_cd.htm
At the moment sales of these are being spent on commissioning
translations of three untranslated texts; the "Gospel problems and
solutions" of Eusebius of Caesarea; the "Apologeticus ad imperatorem"
of Cyril of Alexandria; and the "Commentary on the Nicene Creed" of the
Arabic writer Al-Majdalus.
- Roger Pearse At It Again....
One of these is the "Commentary on the Nicene Creed" by al-Majdalus. He may have been a Melkite priest of the 10th century. This one came in last weekend, which is why I publicise it. You can get the Arabic text, and English translation in Word documents....
- Commentary On The Nicene Creed
I've placed the English translation by Alphonse Mingana of Theodore of Mopsuestia's "Commentary on the Nicene Creed" online here: http://www.tertullian.org/fathers/theodore_of_mopsuestia_nicene_02_tex t.htm Introduction here: http://www.tertullian.org/fathers/theodore_of_mopsuestia_nicene_01_int...
- Roger Pearse Has Added More To His Site
The remaining 5 chapters of the 6th century History of John of Epiphania have been translated into English by Scott Kennedy, who has sent them to me and kindly made it public domain. It's here: http://www.tertullian.org/fathers/john_of_epiphania.htm...
- Porphyry
More from Roger Pearse I have scanned an English translation of various works by Porphyry, including the De Abstinentia, Sententiae, Letter to Anebo, Isagoge, etc. All that is missing is the Letter to Marcella. http://www.tertullian.org/fathers#Porphyry...
- Roger Pearse Has Been Busy
Roger provides a wonderful service. He's added more to his great website. I have scanned an English translation of 16 letters from Libanius to Julian the Apostate: http://www.tertullian.org/fathers/libanius_02_16_letters_to_julian.htm Also his oration...
