The Homeric Centones and the Acts of Pilate is a scholarly work by James Rendel Harris, originally published in 1898. The book explores the ancient literary practice of cento-making, which involves stitching together lines or phrases from different works to create a new composition. Harris focuses specifically on centones made from Homer's epics, the Iliad and the Odyssey, and on the Acts of Pilate, a text that purports to be a historical account of Jesus' trial and crucifixion. Harris examines the history and development of cento-making, tracing its roots back to ancient Greek and Roman poets. He then delves into the Homeric centones, analyzing their structure, themes, and use in early Christian literature. The Acts of Pilate, Harris argues, is a prime example of the cento-making technique, as it draws heavily on the Gospel accounts of Jesus' death and resurrection, as well as on other sources such as Josephus' Antiquities of the Jews. Throughout the book, Harris provides detailed analysis of the various centones and their significance in both ancient and modern literature. He also explores the theological implications of the Acts of Pilate and its use in early Christian apologetics. The Homeric Centones and the Acts of Pilate is a valuable resource for scholars of classical literature, early Christianity, and literary theory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
