    The Ballad Book of John Jacob Niles

    No full text
    A legend in the folk music community, John Jacob Niles enjoyed a lengthy career as a balladeer, folk collector, and songwriter. Ever close to his Kentucky roots, he spent much of his adulthood searching for the most well-loved songs of the southern Appalachia. The Ballad Book of John Jacob Niles brings together a wealth of songs with the stories that inspired them, arranged by a gifted performer. This new edition includes all of the melodies, text, commentary, and illustrations of the 1961 original and features a new introduction by Ron Pen, director of the John Jacob Niles Center for American Music at the University of Kentucky. Niles’s stories and the songs themselves flesh out the line drawings of preservationist recordings. —Green Man Review The histories accompanying each ballad in this work are delightful histories, anecdotes and vignettes, interesting in and of themselves. —Kentucky Libraries Niles has really given us two books in one: a superior \u27Child-ballad\u27 songster, [and] a series of descriptions, anecdotes, and folksay from informants. . . . For more than fifty years he has made a traditional culture seem as beautiful as his own devoted and dignified spirit. —New York Herald-Tribune His most ambitious effort in a long and rich career. —New York Times A treasure trove for musicians, living history enthusiasts, and many other readers. —Reviewers Consortium His comments are as valuable as the songs are beautiful. . . . A marvelous book. —Washington Posthttps://uknowledge.uky.edu/upk_music/1008/thumbnail.jp

    Diatessaron in the Syriac Acts of John / Jacob of Serug and the Diatessaron

    No full text
    This volume contains two short studies, originally printed in the Journal of Theological Studies, on the Diatessaron and Syriac literature. In the first, Connolly examines the evidence on the data and order of two biblical passages in the Syriac Acts of John in comparison with some other places in Syriac literature, such as Ephrem’s commentary on the Diatessaron, the Old Syriac Gospels, and Solomon of Basra’s Book of the Bee. In the second investigation, he looks at some material from Jacob of Serug showing his use of the Diatessaron or Old Syriac Gospels over against the Peshitta. Both studies suggest some lines of alteration that had taken place in the Arabic Diatessaron. Readers who study the history of the Gospels in Syriac and their reception and use in Syriac literature will find these two studies of interest
