    Ktētōr and Synthesis: Epigrams, Miniatures, and Authorship in the Leo Bible

    No full text
    Thesis (Master's)--University of Washington, 2014The Leo Bible (Rome, Vat. Reg. Gr. 1) is an illuminated Old Testament produced in Byzantium during the mid-tenth century. Presented as a gift to a monastery of St. Nicholas by Leo Sakellarios, a court eunuch and palace treasurer, the Bible is the only surviving manuscript of its kind from Byzantium. Known for its luxurious epigrams and miniatures, the Leo Bible's classicizing miniatures are frequently cited as exemplars of tenth-century Byzantine art, although the manuscript is rarely considered as whole. This study takes a new approach to the Leo Bible, focusing on the manuscript as a work of visual and poetic exegesis, in which word and image work together to frame the Old Testament in a Christian context. Beyond its exegetical nature, the Leo Bible also demonstrates a marked interest in the theme of authorship. By considering Byzantine notions of authorship in conjunction with the Bible's visual and epigrammatic program, this study offers new insights into the concept of patronage in Byzantium and the means by which patrons constructed their image and legacy through their commissions. In the case of the Leo Bible, this study will address how Leo Sakellarios is understood to be the author of the manuscript and its exegetical commentary, and how this act of authorship is reflected in the Bible's visual and poetic programs

    No full text
    Das Ziel dieses Beitrags ist es, Leo Katz als Kinderbuchautor zu betrachten und darüber nachzudenken, welche Rolle seine Jugendbücher in seinem gesamten Werk und in der Geschichte der deutschsprachigen Kinder- und Jugendliteratur spielen. Es werden nicht nur seine veröffentlichten Kinderbücher betrachtet, sondern auch andere unveröffentlichte Jugendromane, die unbekannt bzw. unpubliziert geblieben sind. Um den Autor aus der Vergessenheit zu holen, werden unter anderem die nicht bekannten Werke des Autors für Jugendliche vorgestellt und es wird überlegt, weshalb sie damals nicht veröffentlicht wurden.Stadt Wien KulturDepto. de Filología Alemana y Filología EslavaFac. de Comercio y TurismoTRUEpu

    More pictures here than in my Frederick's Fables (1985), but the colors are not as lively. I catch one slight change from Alexander to he. This is a marvelous story of love and of dreams come true. Bravo, Alexander, and bravo, Leo!Leo Lionn

    Visual performance in high myopia

    No full text
    The visual performances of eight low myopic subjects (-2 D to -7 D) and eight high myopic subjects (greater than -7 D) with normal visual acuities were analyzed by contrast sensitivity testing with both spectacle and contact lens corrections to determine if any differences in function exist between those groups. Statistically significant (p = 0.0382) contrast sensitivity losses, particularly at the higher spatial frequencies, were found for the high myopic subjects when corrected with spectacles. However, with contact lens correction, no statistically significant overall difference between the two groups was evident (p = 0.5083). We believe that these results confirm for highly myopic subjects the lack of any consistently present loss of resolution. The differences with spectacle correction are attributable to the nature of the optical correction
