"Brill's Companions to European History have become essential research guides to cardinal topics in the field." - Robert Jones Clines, in: Journal of Jesuit Studies, 6 (2019)
The now complete Lexicon Latinitatis Nederlandicae Medii Aevi (Dutch Dictionary of Medieval Latin) forms part of the project of the Union Académique Internationale to replace the old Glossarium of Du Cange by a set of modern national dictionaries of medieval Latin. The dictionary covers the period up to the end of the North European Middle Ages. Its sources are those texts, written by Dutch authors or on Dutch territory between c. 800 and 1500, which have been printed, and as such include accounts as well as chronicles, lives of saints, and philosophical and theological treatises. A choice of representative texts of each literary genre has been treated by computer to complete the material.
Der vorliegende Band widmet sich der Untersuchung des Briefverkehrs zwischen Eltern und ihren Kindern, wie er uns auf Papyrus und Ostraka aus dem 1. bis 3. Jh. n.Chr. erhalten ist. Im Mittelpunkt der vorliegenden Studie steht die Ausdrucksweise der Emotionen, die charakteristisch für diese Korrespondenz ist. Dabei wird gezeigt, wie Solidarität und Konflikte zwischen Generationen in diesen Briefen zum Ausdruck kommen. Zugleich werden soziokulturelle Aspekte des römischen Ägyptens, welche im Hintergrund der Eltern-Kind-Beziehung stehen, berücksichtigt. In einigen Fällen werden neue Ergänzungsvorschläge sowie Neulesungen und damit innovative Interpretationen der oft nur fragmentarisch erhaltenen Briefe vorgelegt.
