Some people are disposed to get away with suberogatory actions—bad actions that push the boundaries of what is permissible without crossing into the impermissible. I will dub these ‘sub-aretaic’ character traits. My aim is threefold. First, I defend the suberogatory against Liberto (2012) by distinguishing the suberogatory as a moral classification...
Este trabajo analiza las rondas de Gabriela Mistral desde la propuesta de la concepción franciscana desarrollada por la poeta.

De acuerdo con eso, se propone que las rondas que escribió Mistral representan una medioamb...
Aged varnish layers distort the original appearance or integrity of easel paintings and they must be removed in most cases. Toxic solvents (harmful to conservators, the artwork and the environment) are frequently used.

En 217 a.C., alors que les forces romaines venaient de subir plusieurs défaites dans les premiers temps de la deuxième guerre punique, un « dilectus » (levée militaire) particulier eut lieu à Rome. Ce dernier, qui est essentiellement connu par Tite-Live, fut mené par le consul Cnaeus Servilius Geminus qui reçut la mission de lever à Rome et aux ale...
In this work, we investigate the application of advanced object detection techniques to digital numismatics, focusing on the analysis of historical coins.

Then in the form of purest snow-white rose the army of the saints appeared to me, by His own blood to Bride of Christ transposed. The angel army meanwhile sang to see the glory of the One who is her lover, his kindness that gifts her her majesty. As bees one moment on the flower-blooms hover, then at the next, speed their way back to where their po...
Geographic names of lands given by explorers and their images depicted on maps often differed. They were changed repeatedly and were alternated during translation. The same happened to the name America, as Martin Waldseemüller introduced it in one of his maps for the first time in 16th c. Waldseemüller used it to name all discovered lands of that a...
Le livre de Jérémie commence par une double vision survenue à l’auteur quand il avait une vingtaine d’années ; et de ces deux objets ordinaires, un bâton et un chaudron, naît la prise de conscience d’un double danger pour le peuple, encore évitable, et plus tard tout un livre écrit en deux étapes, qui ne correspond pas à la tradition hébraïque du l...
It is not necessary to go through all the stages of initiation into the intricacies of hagiographical studies to immediately recognize, when reading the works related to the dossier of St Menas, that we are dealing with a subgenre of hagiography which contemporary scholars term “fictional hagiography”. The figure of the Saint and the events of his...
The fame of St Menas, the Egyptian martyr, spread far beyond Egypt, extending into historical Ethiopia. This widespread reverence stems from the longstanding unity between the Churches of Alexandria and Ethiopia, alongside the significant translation of Copto-Arabic texts into the classical Ethiopic language. By the fourteenth century, The Life and...
In antiquity, St Menas was highly revered throughout the Christian world and attracted large numbers of pilgrims to the pilgrimage centre of Abū Mīnā. In twentieth-century Egypt, however, this saint became a figure of limited recognition in the Coptic Orthodox community. The revival of St Menas’s veneration, promoted by the Patriarch of the Coptic...
A collection of miracles attributed to St Menas appeared in medieval Old Church Slavonic literature as a result of contacts between Orthodox Slavs in the Balkans and Byzantine Christian literature. By the 10th century, at least two distinct translations of the had likely been produced in Bulgaria. These translations have been preserved in Slavic co...
Despite the survival of St Menas’s hagiography in various Georgian iterations and his commemoration in practically all Georgian calendars and martyrologies – both pre-Constantinopolitan and Byzantine – the cult of St Menas was weak in Georgia. To this day, collections of St Menas’s miracles in Georgian await discovery, apart from one miracle discus...
This study examines the Greek miracle collection of Saint Menas (BHG 1256–1269), investigating the literary construction of the saint as both a military protector and a divine trickster.

This article examines the Old Nubian Miracle of St Menas, preserved in the British Library Ms. Or. 6805, as a unique testimony to Christian traditions in medieval Nubia.

The complete Slavic cycle of miracles of St Menas, consisting of a prologue and 13 miracles, is based on the edition of the Great Reader Mineia of the Moscow Metropolitan Makary. The text largely corresponds to the Greek version from Ivan Pomyalovsky's 1900 edition, making it a valuable resource for understanding the Greek tradition as well. The Sl...
The Ethiopic recension of the Miracles of Saint Menas the Martyr comprises nineteen episodes. The prologue attributes the compilation to Archbishop Theophilus of Alexandria.

Most of the works written by scholars on the Hijrah of the Prophet detailed its significance in establishing the Madinan state, which further led to the efflorescence of Islam from that century up to the present time without examining the moral precepts of modern man.
