	Ps.John Chrysostom, Encomium on Elijah the Tishbite
		The writer of the encomium next relates briefly how Elisha became a disciple of Elijah, and then dwells at length upon the murder of Naboth, and the theft of his vineyard; and represents Jezebel as rendered speechless by the prophecy of evil to come to her which was uttered by Elijah.
		The encomium, as we should expect, has been translated into Coptic from the Greek; and the narrative of the actual facts of Elijah's life are taken directly from the version of the LXX.
		Encomiums upon Elijah appear to have been much sought after and esteemed among the Copts, and there can be no doubt but that several existed in the convents of Upper and Lower Egypt.

	MS encomium
		"Encomium" is the new album by Ultrasound, an americano-dutch band who has already quite an extensive discography behind them,as well as a tour in Europe in 2001.
		This is an album that I would recommend, but only to the people who feel able to actually focus on the sounds, or they will get drowned in the atmospheres and might pass some of the nice textures this album is made of.
		Unlike Hamesh which was also recently reviewed here, Encomium has no singing, rather concentrating on the more atmospheric side of the bands work - which judging by the other works on Mystery Sea that is what this Belgian label is going for.

	Encomium of Ptolemy Philadelphus - Ellen L. Fleischmann, Theocritus
		Under Ptolemy II Philadelphus, who ruled Egypt in the middle of the third century B.C.E., Alexandria became the brilliant multicultural capital of the Greek world.
		In particular, the book explores the subtle and complex links among Theocritus's poem, modes of praise drawn from both Greek and Egyptian traditions, and the subsequent flowering of Latin poetry in the Augustan age.
		Invaluable for its clear translation and its commentary on genre, dialect, diction, and historical reference in relation to Theocritus's "Encomium, the book is also significant for what it reveals about the poem's cultural and social contexts and about Theocritus' devices for addressing his several readerships.

	Encomium of Helen, Brian Donovan translation
		I tried to put an end to the injustice of blame and ignorance of opinion; I wanted to write the discourse, Helen's encomium and my plaything.
		This translation is offered by the translator (a Professor of English at Bemidji State University) for the free and unrestricted use of students, teachers, and scholars everywhere, consistent with academic integrity.
		As to the first half of Arabic-numbered section 12, which Diels/Kranz aptly describes as "heillos verderbt," I have opted for the admittedly peculiar procedure of "translating" the unemended original mess, partly because Freeman and Kennedy had already gone the other way, translating from the emended Greek version suggested in the Diels/Kranz apparatus.

	Isocrates X, Encomium to Helen, tr. J.A. Freese
		This is the reason why I praise him who wrote of Helen more than all others who have desired to describe a subject eloquently, because he has recalled the memory of a woman who surpassed all others in birth, beauty, and renown.
		However, even he has unwittingly made a slight error; for, while asserting that he has written an encomium upon her, he has rather composed a defence of her acts.
		My discourse, however, is neither of the same kind nor concerned with the same subject, or rather, it is just the opposite; for it is fitting to defend those who are accused of injustice, but to praise those who excel in any noble quality.
