COMPLETE [RELIGION/HISTORY] Christianity in the Apostolic Age, by George Purves-mas

[SowasVon]

Ah, maybe a bit late to offer this, but if anybody is stumped by some of the German authors' names and book titles quoted in the sections, I can tell you how to pronounce (and, if necessary, "un-abbreviate") them.

Hello, section 16 is uploaded under
https://librivox.org/uploads/maryannspiegel/christianityapostolicage_16_purves_128kb.mp3 - 21:31

PL OK! Perfect on the German scholarship (of course) and well done on the long lists of Bible references. You have a pleasant, clear voice.

Welcome to Librivox, Fischer1483!
It would be great to have you record sections 9 and 14 for this project (Christianity in the Apostolic Age). It looks like you've just passed your 1 minute test recording which means you are ready to go. Don't forget in all future recordings to make any changes that were suggested when you did the test recording (eg: if you needed to amplify, you'll need to do that for every section you submit).

In order to assign a section to you in the Magic Window (MW) of this project, I've entered you into the database of readers. Your reader page is accessible here and a list of your assigned sections is here (you might want to bookmark it). LV readers appear under both their forum username and their 'catalog name' - at the moment both are your forum username. Here's an example of what it would look like if you choose something different. Some people use their real name, a pseudonym or just a repeat of their forum username. You might prefer privacy or to use it as an opportunity to advertise yourself as a narrator. You can change your catalog name by posting a thread in this forum and an admin will help you out. Your claim is confirmed - you have two months to submit it. Looking forward to hearing your section and have you help out with this project!

Some common questions that new readers ask:

• Footnotes: They are optional. You can read all, some or none. An easy way to mark them is to say 'footnote' then read the footnote then say 'end footnote'.
• Quotes: You can mark these by saying 'quote' then reading the quote and then saying 'end quote'. You can decide whether to say quote at all - sometimes it will be clear from context. I'd suggest saying it if the quotation spans multiple sentences.
• Non-English phrases: We do have to read them. You could 1) pronounce it however you want 2) post in this thread and ask for someone to record it for you so you can either mimic it or splice it into your own recording 3) try Forvo for individual words or the sound icon on Google Translate for a text to speech version to copy.
• Roman numerals: Read these as their corresponding number.
• Abbreviations: You can choose to expand these or not to. You could say 'e.g' or 'for example'.
• Heading numbering: Sometimes books use roman numerals and digits for two different levels of headings. I think a good solution to this is to say 'first, second' etc. for roman numeral headings (I, II etc.) and 'one, two' etc. for digit headings (1, 2 etc.).

MaryAnn, as this is my first Librivox recording I'm especially interested in your comments and suggestions regarding improvement. If you post the recording, please use my full name, Robert Fischer. Thank you.
