140: Encyclopedia II - Catuvellauni - Under Roman rule

Caratacus, however, had survived, and continued to lead the resistance to the invaders. We next hear of him in Tacitus's Annals, leading the Silures and Ordovices in what is now Wales against the Roman governor Publius Ostorius Scapula. Ostorius defeated him in a set-piece battle somewhere in Ordovician territory (see Battle of Caer Caradoc) in AD 51, capturing members of his family, but Caratacus again escaped. He fled north to the Brigantes, but their queen, Cartimandua, was l ...

Sphaerica is the only book that has survived, in an Arabic translation. Composed of three books, it deals with the geometry of the sphere and its application in astronomical measurements and calculations. The book introduces the concept of spherical triangle (figures formed of three great circle arcs, which he named "trilaterals") and proves Menelaus' theorem (an extension to spherical triangles of a previously known result). His works were later translated by the sixteenth century a ...

140: Encyclopedia II - Gospel of Thomas - Comparison of The Gospel of Thomas to the New Testament

The Gospel of Thomas does not refer to Jesus as "Christ" or "Lord" as the New Testament does, but simply as "Jesus." The Gospel of Thomas also lacks any mention of such classic Christian doctrines as Satan, Demons, The Second Coming, sin, or signs. However, it includes several parables similar to ones found in the canonical gospels that contain themes including Hell, eternal damnati ...

140: Encyclopedia II - Mozarabic rite - Preservation and relevance of the Mozarabic rite

The Mozarabic rite is the second-best attested liturgy in the Latin Church in terms of preserved documentation. The Mozarabic rite was considered authoritative for the clarification of a Sacramentary received by Charlemagne from Pope Adrian I (d. 795). The first, of course, is that of Rome, which was installed at every opportunity, to encourage unity of faith and worship. After the Mozarabic rite was suppressed in 1085, apart from six parishes, St. Veremundus offered a successful defense of its merits; some continued use was permitted ...

140: Encyclopedia II - Mozarabic rite - Muslims in Spain

A crisis within Visigoth rule facilitated the Muslim invasion; shortly after 711 only a remnant of Spain was left outside of Muslim control. The term "Mozarabic", in early centuries having more diverse spellings, comes from Arabic for "Arabized". As is generally the case with Islamic rule, strong pressure was placed on dhimmis, Christians and Jews, to abandon their respective faiths and convert to Islam. Islamic rule is more systematic than Christianity was at encouraging conversions. The jizya tax, great cruelty, burnings, relegation to ser ...

The new empire retained much of the Qin administrative structure but retreated a bit from centralized rule by establishing vassal principalities in some areas for the sake of political convenience. After the establishment of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Gao (Liu Bang) divided the country into several "feudal states" to satisfy some of his wartime allies, though he planned to get rid of them once he had consolidated his power. After his death, his successors from Emperor Hui to Emperor Jing tried to rule China combining Legalist methods wi ...

140: Encyclopedia II - Han Dynasty - Emperor Wu and Confucianism

During the "Taoism era", China was able to maintain peace with Xiongnu by paying tribute and marrying princesses to them. During this time, the dynasty's goal was to relieve the society of harsh laws, wars, and conditions from both the Qin, external threats from nomads, and early internal conflicts within the Han court. The government reduced taxation and assumed a subservient status to neighboring nomadic tribes. This policy of the government's reduced role over civilian lives (與民休息) started a period of stability, which was called t ...
