Welcome
back to the Catholic Scholar blog! I realize that I haven't written
a new post for quite a long time, but there is a reason for my
seeming negligence. For
the last year or so, I have been working on my M.A. thesis at Signum
University. It turned out to be a much larger project than I first
anticipated, but I am happy to say that it is finished and defended.
My
thesis, The Germanic Lord’s Prayer Texts: A Critical
Edition and Commentary,
ended up book length, but I have
decided not to publish it in book form. Rather I've created a
website to showcase the
project:
If
you are at all interested in the Lord's Prayer, you might want to
check it out. I cover twenty-one texts in five ancient Germanic
languages: Gothic, Old Saxon, Old High German, Old English, and Old
Norse. For each text, I provide an introduction with historical and
linguistic context, a semi-normalized edition of the text (from the
original manuscript if possible), a modern English translation, and a
detailed commentary.
If
you're really
interested and care to listen to me present my thesis, you can watch
my Thesis Theater on Signum University's YouTube page:
Anyway,
again, welcome back to the Catholic Scholar blog. I will try to
update regularly with new posts and
begin a
couple new series that
dig into the deep meanings of the Sunday collect prayers and the
treasures of the Mass's Eucharistic prayers.
God
bless!
