That the Reformation ushered in a new understanding of human fate and history is equally a commonplace of modern scholarship. The present study probes attitudes towards Greek antiquity by of a group of Lutheran humanists. Concentrating on Philipp Melanchthon, several of his colleagues and students, and a broader Melanchthonian milieu, a Lutheran understanding of Pagan and Christian Greek antiquity is traced in its sixteenth century context, positing it within the framework of Protestant universal history, pedagogical concerns, and the newly made acquaintance with Byzantine texts and post-Byzantine Greeks ? demonstrating the need to historicize Antiquity itself in Renaissance studies and beyond. 410 0$aBrill's studies in intellectual history ;$vv. 183. 608 $aElectronic books. 676 $a938.0072/02 700 $aBen-Tov$b Asaph$0862280 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459596103321 996 $aLutheran humanists and Greek antiquity$92126966 997 $aUNINA LEADER 05438oam 2200721 a 450 001 9910782732503321 005 20230912131332.0 010 $a1-282-85951-X 010 $a9786612859519 010 $a0-7735-6950-2 024 7 $a10.1515/9780773569508 035 $a(CKB)1000000000713417 035 $a(OCoLC)191818970 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebrary10175939 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000276987 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11212953 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000276987 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10226347 035 $a(PQKB)11420432 035 $a(CaPaEBR)407549 035 $a(CaBNvSL)slc00204615 035 $a(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/9d9hvf 035 $a(schport)gibson_crkn/2009-12-01/4/407549 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3331735 035 $a(DE-B1597)656919 035 $a(DE-B1597)9780773569508 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3248619 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000713417 100 $a20010111d2001 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcn||||||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe Arctic voyages of Martin Frobisher$b[electronic resource] $ean Elizabethan venture /$fRobert McGhee 210 $aMontreal [Que.] $cMcGill-Queen's University Press$dc2001 215 $a1 online resource (209 p.) 225 1 $aMcGill-Queen's native and northern series ;$v28 300 $aCo-published by the Canadian Museum of Civilization. 311 $a0-7735-3155-6 311 $a0-7735-2235-2 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $tFront Matter -- $tContents -- $tPreface -- $tPreamble -- $tLodestones, Unicorns, and Perpetual Daylight -- $tA Passage to Cathay -- $tMartin Frobisher, Pirate and Explorer -- $tTo Arctic America -- $tThe Five Lost Sailors -- $tA Token of Possession -- $tIce, Hostages, and Gold -- $tInuit in England -- $tCreating a Gold Play -- $tThe Gold Fleet -- $tThe Countess of Warwick?s Island -- $tRetreat -- $tDisgrace -- $tKodlunarn Island -- $tA Final Assay -- $tSources and Selected Readings -- $tIndex 330 $aFrom the book: "They were five weeks out of England, driving through a storm on the icy edge of the world, when a sudden blast knocked Gabriel on her side. The helmsman tried frantically to turn the tiny ship into the wind that pinned it down, but the rudder had lifted clear of the surface and took no purchase. Water poured over the side, roaring into hatches as the wind drove the vessel across the waves and the crew clung frozen in despair. Only the captain acted, scrambling along the almost-horizontal upper sides, casting off lines to spill wind from the sails, forcing the crew into action to cut away the mizzenmast and the broken foreyard, then preventing them from doing the same to the mainmast. Finally Gabriel rose sluggishly, heavy with seawater but steering slowly off the wind. A tangle of broken rigging and sodden sails, she wallowed before the storm through the remainder of the day and all of the following night, while the captain restored order and set men to pumping the ship dry." Under orders from Queen Elizabeth I, Gabriel's captain B privateer and adventurer Martin Frobisher B took up the search for a northwestern route to Asia. A few days after enduring the storm of 14 July 1576, Frobisher sighted the most easterly outlier of Arctic North America and for the first time England became aware of this vast northern region. Over the next three summers it would be the scene of an adventure involving the fruitless search for a northwest passage, the first attempt by the British to establish a settlement in the New World, and the first major gold-mining fraud in North American history. Over 1,200 tons of rock were mined from Baffin Island and shipped to England, where they were found to contain not an ounce of gold. Yet Frobisher's claim of possession established British interest in northern North America and was the first step in the eventual establishment of British sovereignty over the northern half of the American continent. Using reports from the men who participated in the venture, details preserved in the oral histories of the Inuit, and archaeological information recovered from the sites of Elizabethan activities on Baffin Island, Robert McGhee describes Frobisher's expeditions and offers new insights into this audacious venture. The story ends on an ironic note B the capital of the new Territory of Nunavut, which restores to the Inuit a measure of the sovereignty claimed for England by Frobisher, lies at the head of the bay named after him, where over four centuries ago the English first ventured into Arctic America. 410 0$aMcGill-Queen's native and northern series ;$v28 606 $aGold ores$zNunavut$zBaffin Island$xHistory 606 $aInuit$zNunavut$zBaffin Island$xHistory 606 $aExplorers$zGreat Britain$vBiography 607 $aBaffin Island (Nunavut)$xDiscovery and exploration$xBritish 607 $aNorthwest Passage$xDiscovery and exploration$xBritish 615 0$aGold ores$xHistory. 615 0$aInuit$xHistory. 615 0$aExplorers 676 $a971.9/52 700 $aMcGhee$b Robert$f1941-$01468922 712 02$aCanadian Museum of Civilization. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782732503321 996 $aThe Arctic voyages of Martin Frobisher$93680293 997 $aUNINA
