  An Introduction to Anglo-Saxon Manuscripts
The depictions of the evangelists were to assume several forms in insular art: zoomorphic (the beast symbols); anthropomorphic (portraits of the evangelists in human guise, often accompanied by their identifying symbols); and zoo-anthropomorphic (human figures with the heads of beast symbols).
In the Lindisfarne Gospels of c.700 the artist-scribe, Eadfrith, introduced the practice of depicting the evangelists as scribes--an extremely influential form, of Mediterranean inspiration.

 The Evolution of Armenian Gospel Illumination: The Formative Period (9th-11th Centuries), (c) Kouymjian, Armenian ...
The Gospels of 966 display for the first time in Armenian manuscripts a number of new artistic elements: marginal decorations, ornate incipits, miniatures in the body of the text, canon arcades composed of non-architectural, geometric elements, and dogmatic or symbolic miniatures.
The Gospel of 986 is the oldest to present the Eusebian Letter and the Canon Tables on exactly ten folios, two for the letter and eight for the canons, a convention that becomes the rule in the Cilician period and after.
It was suggested by Nordenfalk that the series of arcades represent a church, the solid arches of the Eusebian Letter being the outside and inside of the entrance, the canons, the columns and arches in the main aisle of a basilican church and the tempietto the sanctuary.

 Identifying the Apostles in Armenian Narrative Miniatures, (c) Kouymjian, Armenian Studies Program at CSU, Fresno
Christianity was a prodigious catalyst for the creation of textual illustrations; the massive copying of Gospels, Psalm books, and other biblical texts provided ample and frequent opportunity for artists to exercise their craft and to take up the challenge of innovation within a highly defined and conventionalized domain.
This is clearly demonstrated by the earliest surviving painting with the Apostles together: the Ascension from the Mlk'é Gospels of 862.

 The Lukan Jump - Professor N.D. Uspensky - From the Desk Manual of the Moscow Patriarchate
It must be remarked that the September gap and jump do not affect the apostolic readings, because, from the aspect of their content, the Epistles have no connection to the history of the establishment of the Feasts cited above.
Therefore, the Church has prescribed that the Gospel for Monday of the 18th Week (Lucan pericope 10) be read on the Monday following the Sunday after the Exaltation, regardless of what Sunday of the Gospel has been read until then, and that the sequential reading of the Gospel according to Luke continue thenceforth.
It is necessary to remember that the September 'omission' and 'regression' do not concern the readings from the Apostolos, because the Epistles of the Apostles, from the point of view of their content, bore not relation to the history of the establishment of the aforementioned feasts.

 TEXT
It is a manuscript of the gospel of John, written on pages only 2 1/2 inches by 3 1/2 inches wide, and only John 18:31-33, 37-38 survive.
It was found in Egypt, over a thousand miles away from where this gospel was originally written, and it is dated to about the year 125 A.D. In other words, somehow a copy of John's gospel was made and brought to Egypt (or copied there) within a quarter century of St. John's death.
But soon the gospel was translated into Latin for the sake of those ancients who knew only Latin as the language of home and business.

It is speculated to have been written in Egypt and it is sometimes associated with the 50 copies of the scriptures commissioned by Roman Emperor Constantine after his conversion to Christianity
Although when parts of Genesis and Book of Numbers were later found in the binding of other books, they were amicably sent to Tischendorf, the Codex is currently regarded by the monastery as having been stolen, a view hotly contested by several scholars in Europe.

Mark was the first of our canonical gospels to be written, and both Matthew's and Luke's gospels use it as a basic framework.
Most of Mark's content is repeated in either one or both of these gospels, but the first parable of the kingdom in today's reading is unique to Mark.
This might be the reason that the later gospels omit this parable, or there might be another reason.

He studied in Leningrad and soon fell out of favour with the art establishment for refusing to tow the party line and paint propaganda.

Forced to flee Leningrad in 1988, he escaped to France with the help of Marie-Aude Albert, who was to become his wife.

 The New Arcadia Review :: Articles :: Vvedensky in Love
This brief period of acclaim and public visibility was followed by arrest and exile (1931-32), then a return to a Leningrad of danger, obscurity, and semi-starvation.
With perestroika and glasnost’, Vvedensky and Kharms were finally brought to light and recognized as two of Russia’s signal twentieth century poets, and for many in post-perestroika Russia their lives became both a warning and a talisman to guard against the various temptations of post-Soviet life.
This is because, as Vvedensky saw it, it is time that both embodies and occults the two essential mysteries of life: God and death; and it is this triadic mystery that poetry must reveal, even if in the mode of failure.
