Studia Biblica et Ecclesiastica. By Members of the University of
Oxford. Vol. IV. (Clarendon Press.)—The most elaborate and, in a sense, the most valuable of these five papers is Mr. E. W. Watson's essay on "The Style and Language of St. Cyprian." It is a contribution of great interest to the study of North African Latinity. World-wide as is the difference between them, Cyprian and Appuleius are, from the literary point of view, curiously akin. Mr. E. L. Hicks contributes an excellent paper on "St. Paul and Hellenism," and Professor Ramsay defines what is called the " South-Galatian " theory as to St. Paul's Galatian labours through Thy 47,t7tav Kat rakaroc*v x6przy (where Professor Ramsay holds, and is, we think, certainly right in holding, that tpvy(av is an adjective). Mr. F. C. Conybeare edits the Acta Pilati in Greek and Latin, and Mr. F. W. Bussell contributes a paper, "The Purpose of the World-Process and the Problem of Evil as Explained in the Clementine and Lactantian Writings in a System of Subordinate Dualism."
