Clementine Literature
The Clementine literature (also referred to as the Clementine Romance or Pseudo-Clementine Writings) is a late antique third-century Christian romance containing an account of the conversion of Clement of Rome to Christianity, his subsequent life and travels with the apostle Peter and an account of how they became traveling companions, Peter's discourses, and finally Clement's family history and eventual reunion with his family. To reflect the pseudonymous nature of the authorship, the author is sometimes referred to as Pseudo-Clement. In all likelihood, the original text went by the name of ''Periodoi Petrou'' ("Circuits of Peter"); sometimes historians refer to it as the "Grundschrift" ("Basic Writing"). Though lost, the original survives in two recensions known as the ''Clementine Homilies'' and the ''Clementine Recognitions''. The overlap between the two has been used to produce a provisional reconstruction of the Circuits of Peter. Respectively, the original titles for these ...

Clementina (zarzuela)
''Clementina'', although wrongly and popularly known as ''La Clementina'', is a zarzuela in two acts by Luigi Boccherini. The Spanish-language libretto was by Ramón de la Cruz. It premiered on 3 January 1787 at the Palace , Madrid. ''Clementina'' is the only complete stage work by Boccherini. It was written when the zarzuela was close to the end of its period of greatest success, before this genre, at the beginning of the 19th century, was nearly forgotten in favour of the Italian opera. The librettist of ''Clementina'', Ramón de la Cruz, had attempted to introduce innovations in the zarzuela, using folk elements instead of the more usual mythological subjects. The music is predominantly cheerful and turned towards comical sides, with pathetic fragments when it tries to describe unrequited love. This work was written on commission of the Duchess Osuna-Benavente, a patron of the arts and lover of music who owned a private orchestra, under whose protection De La Cruz worked. '' ...
