Offtopic. Jstor contents before 1923 now publicly available.

The program, named ‘Early Journal Content’, provide access to all the collections of journals whose was published before the year 1923.

Quoting the Jstor announce:

Early Journal Content on JSTOR, Free to Anyone in World

On September 6, 2011, we announced that we are making journal content in JSTOR published prior to 1923 in the United States and prior to 1870 elsewhere freely available to anyone, anywhere in the world. This “Early Journal Content” includes discourse and scholarship in the arts and humanities, economics and politics, and in mathematics and other sciences. It includes nearly 500,000 articles from more than 200 journals. This represents 6% of the content on JSTOR.

While JSTOR currently provides access to scholarly content to people through a growing network of more than 7,000 institutions in 153 countries, we also know there are independent scholars and other people that we are still not reaching in this way. Making the Early Journal Content freely available is a first step in a larger effort to provide more access options to the content on JSTOR for these individuals.

Terms, conditions and other useful information about this program, is available through this Jstor link.

By this reason, we make some adjustments, dividing the biggest files in smaller pieces, all whose are available in a single collection which is yet viewable online.

By this reason, we do ‘little chunks’ of these big files, but keeping the original placement of each page, and only keeping the frontispiece of each volume in the front of each chunk. All the credit for this digitization must be recognized to the digital library of the Maison de l’Orient et de la Méditerranée, Lyon as Chuk Jones notify here.

De todas as narrações lendárias, que os antigos Egypcios consignaram por escripto, e foram conservadas até ao nosso tempo, nenhuma é mais notável pelo assumpto, nem mais attrahente pela forma, do que aquella que é conhecida pelo nome de Conto do Naufrago. Esta narração tem excepcional importância para a geographia e ethnographia por conter noticias da grande expansão de um dos povos mais celebres da antiguidade, os Phenicios; é de subido interesse para a historia do commercio por indicar a proveniência de muitos productos naturaes, que em remotos tempos eram avidamente procurados dos orientaes; é de inestimável valor para o estudo das tradições populares por conservar a forma, mais próxima da original, de uma lenda, que mais tarde foi adoptada e vulgarisada pelos Gregos na Odysseia e pelos Árabes nas Mil e lima noites; e emfim constitue um monumento litterario preciosissimo da antiga lingua dos Egypcios, porque foi escripto em uma das epochas mais brilhantes da litteratura pharaonica.

A Historia das gentes de Nagran e martyrio de, S. Hirut e dos seus companheiros é o titulo de uma obra escripta em geez, na qual são referidas as perseguições, que os Christãos da cidade de Nagran soffreram no primeiro quartel do século vi da era de Christo, e da expedição que o rei de Ethiopia fez contra o rei de Himyar, perseguidor dos mesmos Christãos. Esta obra não é urna composição original, mas deriva, por intermedio de uma traducção arábica, de uma obra analoga escripta em grego, que tem por titulo Martfrio de S. Arethas e dos seus companheiros tía cidade de Negran. Por sua vez, a primeira parte d’esta obra escripta em grego, na qual são referidas as perseguições dos Christãos da cidade de Nagran, é a narração ordenada chronologicamente do que acerca dos mesmos acontecimentos se refere em uma carta escripta em syriaco e attribuida a Simeón, bispo de Beth-Arsam. Este ultimo documento, porém, parece não ter authenticidade, e os acontecimentos nelle referidos não serem genuinamente históricos; comtudo o seu autor recolheu da tradição oral a lenda, que no fim do século VI corría na Syria, acerca das oppressões que alguns reis de Himyar exerceram sobre os Christãos dos seus dominios, sem duvida exageradas pelo fanatismo religioso, e acerca das guerras entre os reis de Ethiopia e de Himyar, que terminaram pela conquista e desapparecimento do reino de Himyar. Sendo o fim principal d’este estudo publicar a versão ethiopica da narração das perseguições dos Christãos da cidade de Nagran, não pareceu necessário investigar aqui a origem e estudar o desenvolvimento da lenda, nem discutir o valor histórico de todos os documentos, em que foi conservada; julgou-se suíficiente referir de modo summario os factos, em que a lenda se funda, e dar noticia dos documentos, dos quaes mais ou menos directamente deriva a narração escripta em geez. Para melhor comprehensão d’este documento, e para mais facilmente se observarem as transformações, que a narração soffreu desde o documento syriaco até á versão ethiopica, fez-se preceder esta da traducção da carta attribuida a Simeón, bispo de Beth-Arsam, e da do Martyrio de S. Arelhas e dos seiís companheiros tia cidade de Negran. Emfim, como complemento, reuniram-se em appendice as tradições escriptas ou oraes, que entre os Abexins correm acerca do rei, a quem elles attribuem a conquista do reino de Himyar.

Entre as obras que nos restara da litteratura géez, aquellas, cujo assumpto ó a historia de Ethiopia, teem particular importância, pois que por uma parte são os documentos mais authenticos, que possuimos, para reconstituir a historia d’aquelle paiz, completando-os e rectificando-os com os escriptos em outras linguas; por outra parte fíizem conhecer, melhor ainda do que as relações dos viajantes, os usos, os costumes, e tudo o que em geral é comprehendido debaixo da designação de cultura e civilisação de uma nação. Accresce ainda, que as mesmas obras são composições originaes dos indígenas, e não traducções, como a maior parte das que formam aquella litteratura, e que chegaram até nós.
As Historias ou Chronicas dos Reis de Ethiopia que existem manuscriptas nas differentes Bibliothecas da Europa, são uma narração singela, que em umas se limita ao registo, anno a anno, dos acontecimentos mais notáveis do paiz; em outras, porém, reconhece-se certa intenção litteraria, pois que a narração é adornada com diálogos, ditos sentenciosos, comparações e citações biblicas, o que dá ao seu estylo uma feição especial no gosto monástico. A sua linguagem é nas mais antigas o géez quasi puro; comtudo algumas vezes apparecem expressões mais modernas e palavras amarinas ; mas os abexins costumam distinguil-a da linguagem clássica, e dão-lhe o nome de linguagem das chronicas.
