The Roman triumph's resurgence is documented from the Tetrarchy through the end of the Macedonian dynasty in Byzantium and to Charlemagne's successors in the early medieval West.
Anglo-Saxon England: Volume 32
Throughout the centuries of its existence, Anglo-Saxon society was highly, if not widely, literate: it was a society the functioning of which depended very largely on the written word. All the essays in this volume throw light on the literacy of Anglo-Saxon England, from the writs which were used as the instruments of government from the eleventh century onwards, to the normative texts which regulated the lives of Benedictine monks and nuns, to the runes stamped on an Anglo-Saxon coin, to the pseudorunes which deliver the coded message of a man to his lover in a well-known Old English poem, to the mysterious writing on an amulet which was apparently worn by a religious for a personal protection from the devil. The usual comprehensive bibliography of the previous year's publications in all branches of Anglo-Saxon studies rounds off the book.

Leontius of Jerusalem
"Leontius of Jerusalem is known almost entirely for contributions to technical Christology in his Against the Nestorians. Yet his little-known and little-studied Testimonies of the Saints and Aporiae - presented here in full for the first time in a text based on the only textually-significant manuscript, and with a translation into modern English - have their own intrinsic interest. Both were addressed to a specific audience of anti-Chalcedonian ('Monophysite') churchmen, Syrians who considered the exiled patriarch of Antioch, Severus, to be their leader. Both were aimed at inducing anti-Chalcedonians to accept reconciliation with the official, Chalcedonian church at the time (the mid-530s) when the failure of initiatives sponsored by the Emperor Justinian suggested that outright separation was imminent, and new imperial initiatives were undertaken."--BOOK JACKET.
